[QUOTE="CanadienneBacon, post: 3507358, member: 11146"] Pressing his ear against the stone door at the top of the stairs, Rowan hears the distinct shuffle of four creatures occupying what sounds like a narrow space. Judging by the langorous quality of the creature's movement and the odd splash of water, the creatures are kuo-toans but seem oddly uninterested in anything going on behind the door. Phud stoops from his great height to search the body of KT1. The kuo-toa guardian's light crossbow lies at its feet, a shiny scimitar with zig-zag patterns embellished down the length of the blade rests in a sheath at the kuo-toa's hip. In a leather case in a bandoleer strapped across the kuo-toa's chest, Phud finds 18 bolts sized for the crossbow. The kuo-toa is lying on a shield that looks to be crafted after the fashion of the shield belonging to KT3, the one to which Phud's heavy mace stuck fast. Arden has a quick listen at the door and, hearing nothing at all, sets to work dexterously picking the lock, albeit loudly. With a startling click, Arden unlocks the stone door and hastily restows her set of picks. Round the corner, the wolf summoned by Wyleck gives a loud snarl and then a yelp of pain as a bolt from the opposite side of the doorway whizzes through the air of the main chamber. A half beat later, Wyleck realizes that his wolf has fizzled out from existance on this plane. The furious cranking of a crossbow resound in the main chamber but only KT5 pokes its head around the corner. As soon as Wyleck spies the kuo-toa, he lets loose with his sling. The stone flies in a high arc over the head of KT5, a clean miss, then lands with a boom against the opposite wall of the main chamber, where it shatters into several jagged pieces. From his place on the stairs, Rhys keeps an eye on the kuo-toa guardian room, lest Phud or Wyleck fall and the kuo-toan reinforcements invade up the stairs.
