The massive Theater on the Bluff, a small garden of trees, and an old open gateway stands between the two groups of PCs. The old gate isn't used by the Regulars anymore (not strategic enough) and its wooden doors have been removed making it more of an open archway. The stones around it are covered in lichens and tangles of vines. Some of the vines hang down from the top of the open gateway, but they've been cut away recently.Thus, the Listen DC will be a lot less than I had calculated. The base Listen DC for distance is 23, but I'm going to add 5 to the DC for the theater and garden being in the way for a total of 28. (There are citizens gathered in the garden, socializing.) It's not an open-air theater, so there is no amplification of sound through the area.Now, once the battle truly starts, the DC drops to 18 unless Akos and Tuck move farther away.I'll post a new map in a minute.
