[QUOTE="Cage-Rattler, post: 3886715, member: 52785"] Once again Anthony takes the lead, guiding his charges away from the oppressive shadow of the Temple. [color=yellow]"Damnable thing. I didn't like the look of it, but at the same time, I was fascinated by it. A colleague of mine had sent it to me; apparently, an adventuring expedition had found it somewhere in the Stonelands."[/color] Hagen frowned slightly. [color=yellow]"I'll tell you more once we find ourselves indoors. I don't think I want to say too much while we're still near that unholy temple."[/color] [b]István Angushtri:[/b][sblock]István deftly slips to the rear of the group, then effortlessly sprints up the wall of a nearby building, avoiding patches of the wiry black vine as he does so. It takes little time to find a suitable vantage point; the rooftop of the nearby [i]Azure Iris[/i] in provides an unfettered view of the Temple of the Lords of the Nine. István taps into his preternatural psionic abilities, and his colors literally run and blend into the shadows around him. [size=1][color=orange]ooc: István's Hide Check: 1d20+24 (it's getting dark) [7,24] = (31); Move Silently 1d20+18 [7,18] = (25).
