Of Sound Mind III

[GnomeWorks]

Seraphina looks at the berserker goblin as though she understands, and nods. She then makes a thumbing motion back towards the cave's entrance.

If the goblin should start to do anything that looks like it might be trying to alert others to her presence, Seraphina will drop the illusion and shoot the goblin.

I hope I don't die because of this... I don't want to have to shoot him and ruin my cover. Not with that dragon over there, anyway... at least this expedition has had some value, assuming I get out of here alive.

I wonder what it was he said? I'm going to have to learn goblin...

Aiden sighs, and does his best to try again.

[color=sky blue]Yeah, I know, but there's that chance that he rolls a 20 [/color]

 

[Other Guy]

Jason Master

Jason, finished with Gholog, looks over the edge of the cliff to see his cleric friend struggling with the rope. He laughs slightly and thinks to himself, well, I do have one more spider climb scroll left, but...I don’t really want to waste it on this. Heh, maybe I should get a wand of it the next time I’m in a city. “hmm...”

“Aiden!” the young monk-wizard calls out, “why don’t you take your armor off and tie it to the rope. I’ll pull it up and throw the rope back down to you. Then, you can climb up here and put it back on. I could probably pull it up in less than a minute, especially if the others helped me out, and I’ll be optimistic and assume we have a fair amount of time. So, how long does it take you to get out of that stuff? Want some help?”

Thinking of another option, Jason adds, “or, if you don’t think we have the time, then maybe Kerrick and I could just try to pull all of you up at once.”

 

[Sollir Furryfoot]

"I take it that everyone is done fighting up there, then. I was afraid that it would take too long to take off my armor if I could join the fight sooner." With that, he begins to undon the metal pieces of his armor, leaving him covered by a sort of padded suit instead. "I'll take your advice, I could use the help." He then ties it to the rope before getting ready to be hoisted up.

When he gets to the top, "Sorry for dragging everyone behind, I'll try to help with my powers now." He takes a look at the wounded, and heals Jason then Gholog once each (sacraficing a Bless and Endure Fire spell for CLW)

 

[Jarval]

The goblin seems a little placated by Seraphina's charade of understanding, but still watches her warily. (Bluff check: 17 + 3 = 20)

After divesting himself of his armor, Aiden is hoisted up the mountain-side by Jason and Kerrick. It takes longer than the spider climb enhanced Gholog, but between them, they manage to get the priest to the level of the cave with only a couple of slight bruises...

Calling forth Pelor's power, sunlight infuses the wounds of first Gholog, then Jason (Gholog heals 8 points, Jason heals 6). Gholog's eye's open, and he looks blearily around himself.

 

[Zhure]

Gholog

"Did we get them?" Gholog asks, looking around to make sure everyone is accounted for.

 

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Kerrick Jonez

"Sorry big guy, but i think we got more then we gave."

 

[GnomeWorks]

Well, he doesn't look happy... oh well. He hasn't raised an alarm or anything, so he must be fine.

She then proceeds deeper into the cave, paying careful attention to the dragon head (especially if there is a live dragon attached to it).

Don't mind me, just another goblin coming through... hmm... I wish I could speak goblin... this would be so much easier then...

 

[Jarval]

The goblin looks annoyed as Seraphina continues her way towards him along the passageway. He says something else to her in Goblin, slowly reaching out to pick up the spear leaning against the wall beside him.

 

[Zhure]

Gholog

"Well, if we didn't get all of them... I guess what I'm asking, is where's Seraphina?"
