renau1g's Fort Belurian Adventure [Pathfinder]

[Scotley]

"Rescury Perhaps? I wouldn't not bother overmuch with the semantics of the deed, I believe that if we arrive in time to provide the service they'll not care what we call it." Rych examine the walls and surroundings as they exit looking to see how high up on the walls damage or recent repairs are. He also looks for the nature of the damage--claws/fangs, acid, fire etc. He considers whether the damage looks like the random violence of a beast or a focused attack driven by a plan to take the fort.

Iffy cares not a fig for such pursuits! While Rych is conducting his boring inspection, Iffy will be picking wildflowers and looking for interesting bugs with hard, shiny, green shells and lots of prickly legs and things. As he does so, he sings a favorite song: "Ohhhh, I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK, I sleep all night and I work all day...." [NOTE: Iffy will skip over the 'women's clothing' part....]

Baelor grimaces at the gnome's words about time and shakes his axe at Iffy. "I'm ready t' go. You certainly aren't waiting on me, gnome! I'd prefer t' be rescuing nubile young lasses from the clutches o' evil, o' course...but a companion's brother is always worthy o' rescue."

"Well it's about time, Grumpy!! Fine, then, let's go!" says Iffy to Baelor, with a grin.

Turning to maighan, Vernon says, " Now you understand my need for haste in this matter. I hope to be on my way within the hour."

She eyes the palisade wall, then looks back at Anna.

"You say it was half again taller than the wall. Did it stand upright, more or less, or walk on four legs? When it attacked, what did it do? Bite? Claw? Did it breathe out destruction, like fire or poison?"

"Yes, that is correct lady elf. It stood on two legs at all times. It was most curious when it attacked as I've heard the bards tales about dragons and they always mentioned wings and elemental breath, but this dragon didn't have any of that. It was a brown-ish green colour and when it attacked it used its large jaws to tear down portions of the wall." Anna replies.

OOC: I don't mean to speak out of order here, but, given the experience level of our characters, is it barely possible that we have some past experience battling the sorts of beasties that are under discussion here? (Dinosaurs spring immediately to mind...)

You can make a Know:Nature check to determine if you've heard of this type of creature, although they are on an isolated island and aren't particularly common in Faerun. Gnomes would be like McNuggets to these creatures and might be avoided by them at all costs...

OOC: You didn't give me a DC for the check, but considering that Iffy is untrained, I doubt if that will matter.

Anyway, here goes nothing: Untrained KnowNature check for Iffy (1d20+1=16)

 

[Scott DeWar]

OOC: yum! *McGnomegets*

Knowledge nature check (d 20 +2 , ability mod)

1d20+2=3

"I have no idea what that would be in all honesty."
