[QUOTE="pogre, post: 6576309, member: 6588"] Intrepid Adventures of Legend or Hobo Murderers on the Loose (a pogre storyhour) Episode 18 Down the Rabbit Hole The adventurers dove for cover as the fireball exploded in the enclosed room. Everyone managed to evade most of the blast save Brodek. Brodek shook his head and patted the small flames out of his beard and yelled, “I hate orcs!” The Dark Elf then cast a spell and half the treasure room fell under magical darkness. “I really hate elves!” Brodek yelled. Helja dashed into the darkness and through the secret door. She emerged from the darkness and found that the orc shaman and the dark elf had retreated halfway up a flight of stairs. Cabo sprinted into the darkness next and managed to emerge near the orc shaman. [IMG]http://www.pogre.com/5th_edition_9918_fight_up_stairs.jpeg[/IMG] Gideon, Brodek, and Osbourne followed. The group managed to quickly cut down the shaman and the dark elf made a quick fighting retreat up the stairs. “Maybe we should regroup?” Gideon suggested. “No way,” Osbourne quipped. “I want to see where this rabbit hole leads!” The group dashed after the dark elf and was dismayed when it reached a room at the top of the stairs that held the elf’s latest ally.
