Q'Barra: Facing Truth Chapter 2

[Pebele]

Sepoto leans in to listen more closely. He is able to clearly hear two distinct voices. However, they are speaking in a language he does not recognize.

They are speaking rather loudly, and Sepoto can hear intermittent laughter.

From his estimation, Sepoto would guess that the voices are 50 to 70 feet from the entrance.

[sblock=Formation]
I'm guessing the formation will be something like...
Catherine | Sepoto or Charles
Darrick | Kaelan
Trebuchet | Sepoto or Charles

Trapfinders at the front and rear seem sensible.

[sblock]Can Charles tell what language it is?[/sblock]

 

[Pebele]

[sblock=BRP2]No, Charles does not recognize the language, either.[/sblock]

 

[Rolzup]

Raising an eyebrow at Sepoto gestures, Darrick nods and silently draws his sword. He inclines his head, and gestures vaguely with his blade, towards the source of the noise to indicate his readiness for whatever happens next....

 

[Yeoman]

"Can anyone tell me what they said? I might be able to translate it. Otherwise, let's just try and silence them." Catherine keeps her hand on the halberd's shaft while she waits.

 

[Pebele]

(Ok, I know that Shayuri is out of town, so he won't be weighing in.

However, I do need to know what the rest of the characters are doing. Will they be charging in to the temple? Or do they have other actions in mind?)

 

[Rookseye]

Sepoto inclines his head in Catherine's direction and speaks in a barely audible whisper:

"Friend-Captain-Catherine, a short distance beyond lurk two who are speaking a tongue Sepoto does not speak, whether they are foe friend, he cannot tell, what is your order?"

Seeing Catherine's internal debate and self-doubt rising to the fore, the quiet shifter leans in slightly closer.

"Perhaps Sepoto could wander further ahead, while his companions await, perhaps there is more to see?"

[SBLOCK] Sepoto will scout ahead, alone, if Catherine decides upon it, and return just as quickly once he identifies what the voices are and what lies beyond.
Hide Check = 22
Move Silently = 13
With the natural "1" for the Move Silently check, Sepoto will use an Action Point to better his result:
Action Point Result = 2, Move Silently now = 15
Spot Check = 18
[/SBLOCK]

 

[Yeoman]

"Perhaps Sepoto could wander further ahead, while his companions await, perhaps there is more to see?"

"Do it. Withdraw immediately if you are spotted."

Is there anything terrain that could be used for concealment here? Off to either side, perhaps?[/sblock]
