The Return (The Heros of Mergovie)

[DarkMaster]

Solomon can see a grate about 100' in front of the group

 

[Kangaxx]

Jasper Conrad

Jasper quietly and nervously follows Solomon's lead. I hope he knows where he's going, I don't want to see another ogre.

 

[Manzanita]

Solomon leads the others to under the grate.

"I think we should exit. I don't think we can hide, outfight, or elude them down here. They probably know the layout. At least above, we can try to disapear into the crowds. That does mean we have to abandon Jraq's body, and the ogre's weapons. Even burning Jraq's body would attract them here too fast. Perhaps we can take his head and give him some sort of burial later."

Unless anyone has a better idea, Solomon will doft his armor, and hand his axe to Trolm, in order to take his wizard pupil disguise again. The armor and weapons would be of little use in a fight anyway, considering how badly he's injured.

OOC: Solomon wouldn't want to take any of the mundane orc armor or weapons either. We just don't have a means of carrying them.

 

[DarkMaster]

Solomon tries to help the other reach the grate as silently as possible. (move silently roll Solomon 16+9;25 for him +3 for other; Jasper 17+1+3; Oculus 7 + 2+3; Dai 20+3+3; Trolm 12+3; ) The group silently moves along the ledge of the sewer. The constant flow of water seems to cover most of the noise they are making.

As they get under the grate and are getting ready to escape. The group hear the sound of foot steps approaching dangerously the intersection located about 100' further down the tunnel. They seem to be moving at jogging pace.

 

[Manzanita]

OOC: How hard is it to get out? How high is the grate? If possible, Solomon will push off the grate then throw Jraq's body out first.

 

[DarkMaster]

OOC The grate is about 10-15 feet high and for someone like Solomon pushing the grate is relatively easy. He could also carry Jraq but that will require a climb check DC15 and a strength check DC10

 

[Manzanita]

OOC: OK - forget it. I had a plan for Jraq's body, but time is of the essense. Solomon will simply drop Jraq's body. If no light comes through the grate, Solomon will tell the others to light a torch or a spell.

IC: "They are approaching. Get out as fast as you can. Oculon and Jasper first. Trolm & I will hold them off.

 

[silentspace]

"You first, Solomon, and take Jraq with you," Oculus says.

ooc: If possible Oculus would have taken and worn some armor and shield (he's proficient). He casts expeditious retreat.

 

[Kangaxx]

Jasper Conrad

"We don't have time for discussion or bravado, let's just get out of the sewer. Trolm, will you give me a boost?" Jasper puts deed to word and starts trying to climb out.

OOC: Climb -1, he's going to need that boost.

 

[Ferrix]

Dai helps boost others who are more encumbered or less able to climb out, leaving it till it is only him and Solomon and then he'll climb out as well, giving a Solomon a hand-up once he's out.

OOC: Once/If we get out, can you give us an immediate description of the area?
