The Forgotten Forge

OOC Assuming Kim Kim tells the group about the cost:

Cole will begrudgingly hand over the rest of the gold from the advance Lady Elaydren gave the group, he whispers to Kim Kim "Let's hope he knows where he's going, we have nothing left after this"

Rogarth's eyes go wide when the impertinent little snotling demands 10 gold. "Thats a miser's fortune!" he whispers to Thalmarose. "Who does he think he is?"

When he sees Cole's eagerness to turn over the gold without even haggling, he secretly begins to wonder if Cole is just naive or perhaps a bit soft in the head.
 

OOC Sorry if Vertexx posts later.
"10 gold is ridiculous. First he asks for a hundred silver then he wants 10 gold. Next time I should pay." Thalmarose whispers to Rogarth. He is wearing plain clothes and boots for the sewer.
 

Skakan folds up his merchandise and leads you to the entrance of the E-213 Valve Cluster. He points out a narrow passage that leads to a staircase that descends deeper into the tower. With each step down, the odor of mold and sewage becomes stronger, and you can hear liquid sounds increasing in volume as you descend.
OOC I need a marching order and spot checks.
 

OOC I'd imagine the marching order would be C, Cole, Kim Kim, Thalmarose, Ro’garth
(Let me know if you guys think otherwise)

Cole keeps his sword drawn and his eyes focused on the back of their guide, to the exclusion of all else.

Spot (1d20+4=5)
 

Ro'garth, with scimitar drawn and shield readied, assumes that Kim Kim's keen eyes should spot anything that we approach, focuses his attention upon watching the way we came; he has no doubt that one or more of the miserable scum from the Rats market may try to take them unawares and he will have none of that today.

OOC the order is fine with me. Spot result = DC 25
 

[sblock=OOC]Checked this morning and there wasn't any headway, but didn't trust Thalamrose's diplomatic abilities. Especially in light of his personality. (I check my games in early morning and later in the evening so you need to give me some time to do so...5 posts moving things forward in 6 hours is a bit excessive.[/sblock]

Waking from his disbelief of how much his party member paid a goblin guide that will probably lead them into an ambush, Thalmarose makes his way up next to the "guide" to have a word in goblin. "For that much money, you are with us to the end. If you even think of betraying us or disappearing into the shadows. I give you my blood oath that you will never see the sky again, and that the screams of agony from the tortures I shall inflict on you will torment the dreams of your entire misbegotten race for all time. And that even on my death, my spirit shall haunt your home and rip the very souls of your children and from all the spawn you call family forever." Then makes his way back to the middle of the marching order as he draws his bow with a little smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

Spot: (1d20+8=19)

If the descent is dark, C takes out one of his sunrods and smacks it into his own hand to light it. Unless someone else asks to carry it, he slips it through his belt, saying "That's one good thing about a light with no flame."

He doesn't seem to have considered the possibility of an ambush so soon, but when the others prepare he readies his shield and draws his warhammer. "I'll lead. I'm not sure I'd spot an attack, but death to any creature who tries it!" He says the last part particularly loudly, hoping to startle any enemies that might be in earshot.

Spot check (1d20-2=11)
Intimidate (1d20 4=20)
 


Rogarth and Thalmarose hear footsteps. A warforged strikes from the shadows, his rapier piercing the air with deadly efficiency. Skakan screams and almost runs away. "You have the provost's journal," the warforged says. It's not a question. "Give the book to me, and you can live to see another day. Refuse, and we will make your deaths slow and painful."
OOC Wait while I get the map up.
