[LPF] Through the Looking Gate

[Satin Knights]

Tasanto, figuring he has the toughest hide and best eyes, takes the lead going down the stairs."Give me a fifteen foot lead so if a trap springs, we all don't fall in."

Galandra nods at Tasanto and will stay back about 15 ft. Mika will follow right behind her too. "Even in that form... Don't you need some light?"

 

[kinem]

"Hold on a moment. I have a little spell that could help us communicate fairly quietly even if we get separated." Menik casts message, including everyone in it other than the actual cats.

"Also, Tasanto, here is my periscope if you want to use it." Menik draws it forth.

Maui pads back to where Vincenzo stands confounded looking at the wand that had blown up in Tasanto's hands. He nudges the nobleborn fighter and lets out a rumble that sends a tingle of healing energy through his body. He then nips at the sleeve of his clothes and pulls him towards the entrance in obvious impatience at the delay.

[sblock=OOC] CLW cast on Vincenzo heals 10 hps [/sblock]

"Huh? Whoa! It worked for me!? Oh, sorry Maui, Yes, let us move on eh?" He replaces his wand-unknowingly unused- and proceeds down the steps after the first two.

 

[Scott DeWar]

The crypt descends downward in a single file stair case, beckoning the group towards their deaths ...

FIFY

 

[Deuce Traveler]

"You would think dangerous and terrifying evil would have a place with better property value. Ah well," Lem says as he re-secures his waterskin and follows the rest down to protect the rear.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Vincenzo looks to Lem and mouths the word 'Waaaaaht?' , shakes his head and moves on.

Once the party has been healed of most of the damage from the previous fight, Tasanto takes point, leading them down into the depths. His keen dark vision allows him a good solid view of the downward depths, and he carefully proceeds forward, keeping a watchful eye on the ground and the walls for signs of mechanical traps. The low ceiling causes the hammer in Tasanto's hand to scrape the ceiling, but Tasanto just barley avoids scraping his head on the ceiling. Small amounts of dust dislodge themselves from the floor while descending.

His allies follow him, one at a time. Maui has a little bit of trouble squeezing into such a confined space, and let's the others in front of him, bringing up the rear guard.

after 100' into the depths, of walking into the depths, the sound of the lightning storm is covered up by the sound of running water, as though a spring is below the surface. Tasanto, being about 3 strides in front of everyone, sees it first; a small spring of water seems to have opened up in on the left wall, causing a large size puddle to form in front of the stairs.


[sblock=GM] [MENTION=75065]jbear[/MENTION], Maui is currently squeezed due to being a large creature in a 5' hallway. Let me know if you decide to change our of Tiger form.

Current Marching Order. Let me know if this needs changed.

"Glad I sold that merchant's garb", muses Vincenzo aloud. He follows otherwise without any other words.

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Lem uses the message spell to quietly ask Tasanto, "You seem to be having some trouble up there, big guy. Want me to take point? If the tunnel gets any smaller, I would be better off than you."

If Tasanto agrees, the halfling will go first.
