[QUOTE="Nephis, post: 8974290, member: 20459"] We're choosing the SC rather than immediate combat, subject to change with the outcome of the roll. [HR][/HR] [I][B]PA’AVU[/B] calmly steps forward, sword in hand but blade resting on the chamber’s floor. The goliath stares at the skin of the intruders, lesions oozing iron-colored crystals visible on their arms and faces. These scabs remind her of similar marks – not quite so virulent – suffered by some of her clansfolk after coming into contact with a fouled water source. They had been scouting ahead for the clan’s seasonal move without much success. These pustules look far worse than those. “R’giz’rod’nki*,” she addresses them, trying to draw their attention to her and away from the others, “how long have you suffered those lez’ja**? They look painful: maybe we can help you.” At first the diseased goliaths stare fixedly at Moonstar at work; then one seems to register the language being spoken, and the focus of his dull, cloudy eyes slowly rises to meet Pa’avu’s gaze. “It is the price we pay to the Z’vez’da***,” he mumbles in Giantish. Hearing the slur of his speech while witnessing muscle-twitches in both goliaths and their two hounds, Pa’avu puts together her observations and realizes that they are all afflicted with a sickness, possibly curable, that accounts for their mutation and behavior. * literally “regional kinsmen/kinswomen” (nongendered) in Giantish, used to address goliath unknown to oneself. ** lesions in Giantish ***Star in Giantish[/I] [HR][/HR] * Secondary Skill Perception check to note the visible lesions on arms and faces of goliaths and hounds, plus slurred speech and muscles twitches: r(4) +12 + 2 (w/in 10 sq of Chanvati) = 18 vs 12 Easy DC, gaining a +2 bonus to * Primary Skill Heal check to analyze health of these goliaths and hounds and what afflicts them: r(15) + 8 + 2 (bonus) = 25 vs. 17 Moderate DC Success [/QUOTE]
