Luthal nods in agreement, setting his jaw and taking a moment to let his breathing settle to a slow, steady pace. Entering the tower, he heads up towards the room with the sleeping men.

OOC:
Move Silently +7
 

Luthal and Zook make for the stairs and begin their ascent up the tower.

They reach the first level without problems...

They reach the second level without problems...

They reach the third level... ((Secret Move silently check))

...without problems.

Both men now stand at the top of the stairs on the third level, staring at the two men sleeping on the floor of the tower. As they stand there, the snoring man snorts loudly and begins mumbling... causing both men to stop short with held breath... but he then rolls over onto his side facing away from them both. The other man still sleeps quietly on his back, his body angled such that his head is nearest the stairs. The breeze blows through the tower once again, causing the rope hanging on the back wall to flap against the stone.

**********

OOC: If you are going to attempt anything against the two men, please roll initiative. If you are hoping to get them tied up without hurting them, I'll call that a non-lethal coup-de-grace attempt and will roll the coup-de-grace as per a normal surprise round attack.
 

Luthal creeps up towards the snoring man, raising his axe high. Once he sees Zook ready to take out the other man, the butt end flashes down at the man's unprotected head.

OOC: I hope to render him unconcious without a struggle. If he wakes up, I jump him and start to grapple. Initiative 7
 

Zook sees how Luthal is ready to hit the mans head.... He draws his spear and hit the man with the wooden part aiming for the unprotected head.

ooc: hope to render him unconcious. Init:Roll(1d20)+3:19,+3 Total:22 if necesary
 

Kolarred waits at the bottom of the tower, his hand on his sword ready to charge ahead if he feels things are not turning the way the group expected

OOC:Just wanted to add that this is a really good game. Since we are down to three I enjoy it a lot. Keep the good work Defcon

OOC: Me too, DEFCON! I really enjoy the small group. I think we should keep it as is and not add more. THe issue with pace you were having in the past doesn't seem to be an issue, and I like the relationships the characters are developing.
 

Luthal and Zook both silently move over to each of the two thugs and raise their weapons. The two look at each other, and when Luthal nods, they both bring the blunt ends of their weapons across the unprotected skulls of the sleeping men.

**THUNK!!**

As the axe and spear both connect, each man's body convulses awake for just a moment in shock, but then their eyes cross and they both fall limp. Luthal and Zook smile at each other, give themselves a pat on the back, and as Zook goes down to call for Kolarred, Luthal drags them over to the staircase and ties each man up to the solid wooden railing.

When Kolarred and Zook come back upstairs, the three make a quick assessment of the situation. Both thugs are unconscious, but easily awoken if they wanted to question them. A quick search of the men and the area reveals them both wearing high quality travelling outfits, boots and gloves. The only weapons on them are a dagger sheathed in their boots, strangely enough. Each has a purse on their belt with approximately 50 gold pieces in it, one thug has a bunch of rings on his fingers, while the other wears a medallion around his neck. Finally, the group notices there are no backpacks, weapons, or armor to be found on this level.

OOC: Thanx for the kind words, guys! Glad you're enjoying it! If you guys are fine with the 3, then that's fine with me! The fact that you all post very quickly after I do means we're all able to keep things moving and interesting. Cool beans!
