Legacy Of The Deep (Pt. 1) - Escape From Zanzer's Dungeon

Geramon

With a puzzled expression "I wasn't planning on actually carrying the junk, I was merely suggesting to do the packing for you all, while the rest of you checked out what's behind the other door. I couldn't carry this all if my life depended on it... I should do some research. There is probably a spell which could do the job. All this escaping business is just a waste of valuable study time"

"But you must agree that we should not stall here too long. Zanzer probably knows about our escape and is making preparations as we speak. I think Lucian and I are capable of carrying the supplies and some of the gold. You can carry the rest of the gold and any number of junk as you see fit. Now let's get going"

"Geramon, I have told you before, I am a warrior in Hoar's name. Do not provoke me by attacking my new found friend here. I firmly believe that evil people should be payed back with an equal coin. Tanarel says when Geramon insults the wolf.

He then sees Geramon that Geramon is trying to give the wolf some food. "Are you sure you wanna do that Geramon. As you said before the wolf has keen senses and he is not yet used to you. You might try and feed him your ration but whats to stop him from taking you hand as well ! Tanarel says with a somewhat evil grin on his face.

[Intimidation check here ?]

[Roll] 8 + 1 (Cha) = 9 [/Roll]
OOC: I hope the wolf doesnt like your sarcasm and bites you :p


Then comes the comment that Axels in charge. Tanarels response to this is:"Geramon. Since when have you been in service for Zanzer? Seems to me the only thing you do is driving a wedge in this group. The longer I look at you and your actions the more I think you are against us. If you hold a grudge to me then by all means say so and I will deal with it. If you continue to try and break this group up, Tanarel *sighs* as he is saying this:"Then well I guess I have to do something about that, now dont I? Tanarel turns around.

[another Mayor intimidation check here !!]
[Roll] 16 + 1 (Cha) [/Roll]
 

Morn exclaims with a tranquil voice

"He is not used to hierarchy and discipline in stressful situations, Tanarel. Not every one of us can be enlightened in every way. One should not ask the dolphin to fly, or the eagle to swim. Only when we we let everyone perform their proper task does the world function."

To Geramon: "That said, though my discipline forbids me from striking out in anger, there are those in the world that would have done so at hearing your condescending tone. Perhaps practicing caution will bring you farther on the path of enlightenment in this world. I assume you are cautious with your studies, so I suggest you bring that discipline in line with your social skills as well. Only creatures with sharp teeth can afford to make a lot of noise."
 

Tanarel Whitehart

"The time has come for Geramon to fight his own battles Morn. Though I appreciate your insight and enlightening words I do believe that he will do anything to get out of here. Now I have no knowledge over wizards other than my combat training against them, which is slim to none. I trust Geramon as far as I can throw him. So therefor I say what I think so that there are no misunderstandings. I do this in Hoars name and will do so for as long as he wants me to!
 

"Then you have focus, as do I, and probably as does Geramon. It is in the objects of our focus where the difference lies, and then there is a difference between long and short term focus. Yet what must be understood, by all of us, is that they are not so seperate for us now, since we are in a situation of survival, where our long term focus is endangered if we do not take care of the problems that are right before us." Morn says in the same quiet calm tone. He continues."Geramon and you both seem stressed, Tanarel. That can lead to mistakes. Remain calm. Stay focussed. We all want to get out of here. Let us do so in a cautious and calm way."

He looks at both of them, and sees that neither really takes his words as the unassaible truth for which Morn sees it. He then snaps out suddenly:"Oh, just stop the bickering!" and after calming down again adds "it is an extremely unproductive use of energy at the moment. Let's move."

Sydney finds a small backpack that would fit him and any goblin.

Raven hears nothing on the other side of the door.

The monk picks up one of the two sacks, and they are not too heavy. Both sacks weigh 10 lbs. Opening up the sacks he finds more gold. It is believed by him and Geramon that there is about a total of 1200 gp laying here. Morn also notices as he lifts the sack a trap door that was partially obscured by it. On the door is written, "Caution: Poison."

Geramon ignores Tanarel's attempt to intimidate him and tries feeding the ration to Tanarel's new companion, it growls at the wizard and grins its teeth.

Tanarel's second intimidation works against Geramon.

When Axel looks into the room, his eyes get big as he stares at the glittering gold just laying on the ground."Uhh... yeah, I give Tanarel permission to lead the group for the moment. Since I'm the strongest and wisest one, I'll look after the gold..."
 


Morn thinks: "Wisest? Strongest, alright, but Tanarel has more hope to ever achieve enlightenment than that big oaf Axel does. I shouldn't judge though. I must remember my training, remember my vows..."

Then says: "Watch out people. There is a trap door here. If you must take the rest of the gold off... don't stand on the door, and be careful. And Axel, this gold is either going to be split up evenly among us, or it is going to be used to buy equipment necessary to bring about Zanzer's downfall. It is not going to be your personal hoard."
 

Raven

"Lucian, please be able to account for all that gold when we are out of here. " She scowls at the other bickering, then catches Sydney's & Aamon's gaze. "Let's keep moving, friends."

She attempts to opent he door.
