The Underdark Primeval [IC]

In a farming cavern below Eartheart...

Morph arrives by the Dwarven Lady's side with his Wand ready. Speaking the activation word, a soft white light emerges from the Wand, sealing and closing the Lady's wounds. She does not regain consciousness.

Dargo pursues the assassin, and finds him behind the mushroom. Swinging his urgrosh two-handed, he slices deeply into the assassin [20 damage]

The assassin shrieks in pain and retreats, only to reappear a second later behind Dargo [circled around the mushroom]. He has dropped his bow and drawn a rapier and a shortsword. He thrusts with his rapier, but misses.

From behind nearby mushrooms, two more dwarves appear with rapier and shortsword drawn, and circle around Dargo. One takes up a positon opposite the assassin, and thrusts out with his rapier [11 damage]. The other misses.

Two rats also appear, from further away, and rush up to attack. Both miss.

Vuoor sees the action on the other side of the pond. Swimming straight across and out of the water, he arrives next to Morph, the two fallen dwarven ladies, and the dwarf bodyguard. Twenty feet away is Dargo, surrounded by dwarves and rats.

Dargo Golden Half-Deep Dragon Gold Dwarf HPs: 44/83, AC: 21

Dargo broke into a wide grin as his opponents surrounded him, his smile slightly disarming because of the larger teeth granted by his heritage. He swung to and fro, making full use of his weapon of choice and his skill. Dargo attacked his initial foe first, hoping to drop him and follow through on another.

OOC: Full Attack: Urgosh (Primary-Blade):+14/+9, Dmg: 1d10 + 10 + 1d6 Frost (x20), Urgosh (Secondary-spear):+14/+9 Dmg: 1d10 + 6 + 1d6 Shock (x20). Remember Cleave, if he hasn't dropped a foe, his final attack will be on a rat, hoping to get a cleave and hit the other rat.

Seeing the lady's wounds close, Morph casts his next spell on the other woman who fell. Then next round he will return to the noble woman to try and get her standing. At all times he keeps his shield ready in his other hand to try and protect himself and the fallen from further attacks. (ie. no attacks of opportunity for me)

Edit: added shield and fixed horrific grammar.

Denasa, female gloaming sorcerer

"Come on Rogoth," Denasa says, and starts to fly down the corridor. If she encounters any guards she'll do one of three things (probably in sucession):

*Yell at the guards, "Run, they're coming! Run for your lives!" with a terrified expression on their face (Bluff +13). When they turn to run, Rogoth can hit them with his flail if they don't run fast enough.

If that fails, Denasa will start to glow as brightly as she can, slowly flying forward, and pitch a huge fit. She'll start crying about how the great spirits are coming to possess her, and that they will kill anyone in their path. She'll twitch and moan, and roll her eyes back. Then she'll suddenly stop, glare at the guards, and say in the most impressive voice she can muster, "I will feast on your soul." Again, Bluff +13 for all she's worth.

If that fails, scorching ray, one spell will give her three rays, and she'll try to get as many of the guards as she can with them, all the time screeching about how their "souls will be consumed by fire."

Wash, rinse, repeat until they get their stuff, and then more of the same (if it keeps working) until they can get the heck out of the prison. Or follow where Bandon went, whichever looks better at the time. And if she can find or threaten the location of the key to Leg's cage out of anyone, she'll get that too.*
 

Rogoth pushes Solli along, following Denasa, his makeshift weapon ready for Dwarf skulls. Using his Scent to try and sniff out any Dwarves before they get near, as well as his [i[Blindsight[/i].

Moving as quiet as possible (+7, +12 if the dwarves didn't take his boots), the Grimlock takes the lead position, ready at a moment's notice to alert his companions of the presence of Guards.
 

In Eartheart Deep Prison...

Denasa and Rogoth leave Solli in the cell and head in search of their lost equipment. As they pass the other cells, the prisoners start shouting, some cheering, others yelling at them to rescue them. They are raising quite an alarm.

The Gloaming and the Grimlock arrive at the door leading to the showers. This is the door you came through. The door is locked. There is a small, shuttered window in the door, that is currently closed. The shutter cannot be opened from this side. The hallway continues on, lined with cells full of shouting prisoners.

After his moment of indecision Solli hastely makes to follow off after Denasa and Rogoth, keeping to what ever shadows are available makeshift dagger in hand.

In Eartheart Deep Prison...

Solli (apparently having a change of heart), rushes down the corridor, arriving just in time to see Rogoth start pounding on the door.

The pounding is having some effect, but after two slams the window on the door slides open. An alarmed-looking dwarf guard peeks out at you, then quickly slams the window shut. You hear an alarm go off, and the sounds of much running about behind the door.
 

In a farming cavern on the outskirts of Eartheart...

Morph moves over to the maid, using his wand on her. She comes to, and is startled to see the Slyth standing over her.

Dargo attacks the first assassin with his blade, just narrowly missing. Spinning his weapon around, he thrusts with the spear end, sinking it into the dwarf right next to his previous slice [11 damage.] As the dwarf falls, his spear end lashes out at another dwarf, penetrating into its flesh [Cleave, 14 damage]. The dwarf is still standing. Dargo spins his Urgrosh again, attacking with the axe end [miss], and then the spear end [miss.]

The two remaining dwarves look fearfully at Dargo, and at their fallen comrade. They press on with their attack, attacking with both rapier and shortsword, both from flanking positions. The first dwarf hits with his shortsword [11 damage]. The second hits with his rapier [11 damage]. The first rat gets in a lucky bite [Critical! 4 damage]. The second rat misses. [Dargo thinks the hits of these remaining dwarves and rats were more luck than skill. He can't be sure though. Still, a wound is a wound, despite the skill level of the opponent, and Dargo was getting plenty of them.]

Vuoor (autopilot) charges one of the dwarves flanking Dargo, connecting with his flippered fist. It's a glancing blow [5 damage].
