Zitteaux shouts once more before shooing you all out.[GM]Heading out to the cave on the map is a reasonably easy task. Along the way you all have ample opportunity to catch everybody up to speed and to get to know each other a little bit better. [/GM]As you travel the walls of the city quickly give way to the lapping of water and sandy beaches. After about 3 hours of walking you find yourselves looking at a sandbar in front of the cave you're looking for. Tide seems quite low at the moment but it may not stay that way for long. The cave is dim light other then what you provide and is full of tidal pools. We'll be using the  Obsidion’s Skill Challenge system to resolve this encounter :<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Goal: bring Zitteaux as many crab eggs as possible from the cave before the tide comes in.</li> </ul><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Primary skills: Knowledge (nature) and Survival (using these skills provide a +2 bonus to the skill check).</li> </ul><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Write  a post describing your character’s actions taken to achieve the goal.  Each descriptive element earns the character one skill check (to a  maximum of three skill checks). Additional descriptive elements may earn  positive modifiers to the skill checks. Decide which skill or skills  are used though it must match the description and be feasible for the  completion of the goal. For example, a PC could talk to the crab eggs  all night long trying to get them to march into his bag but it just  won’t work; some skills, like Diplomacy, are unsuited for the successful  completion of this challenge and cannot provide successes regardless of  how good the check is. Despite that, be creative! If you have good  descriptive elements in your post I will give you the benefit of the  doubt. In your post include your descriptions and your dice rolls. I’ll  add modifiers you earn and post results after everyone has posted.</li> </ul>[GM]Any questions regarding what's going on or how things work please let me know, either here or by PM, I trust you can all come up with some fun descriptions of how you're helping the effort. For those of you more curious about the skill system you can read the whole thing <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/attachments/4e-fan-creations-house-rules/36710d1221975246-stalker0s-obsidian-skill-challenge-system-new-version-1-2-obsidian-skill-challenge-system-v.-1.2.pdf" target="_blank">here</a> (page 3: What Everyone Needs to Know is the most pertinent).[/GM][OOC]As a side note: Zitteaux didn't mention any specific reward, he's known to pay adventurers fairly for their labors though. Also we may or may not have a 5th player <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/members/drjest.html" target="_blank">DrJest</a> posted to the thread once but hasn't said anything else for a week, so there may or may not be a Dwarven warrior with you as well[/OOC]</blockquote>
