Todd's FR adventure: On the Merchant Road. Part I

[Argent Silvermage]

Az asks "Can anyone drop me a bow and arrows? I would like to be prepared for the coming battle.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Saxon hastens his efforts to get out.

"Once we're out we can find a route to the area above the bridge, then we can take them out," he whispers loudly to the others.

Killian notes that the 2 (murderous) goblins got too far ahead, and goes back to the group to help them out and see what they say.

When he gets back, and they get out of the pit, he asks, "So- do we go after 'em?"

 

[Seonaid]

Kiralin will also get out of the pit. To Az, she says, "Sorry, I don't have a spare." She continues, "I don't think it's a great idea to chase after them, if you've lost sight . . . They don't seem that bright, but someone in charge could have them set up a trap. This place isn't very defensible"--she glances around in disgust--"but at least we know it and have a few moments to prepare, perhaps like he says." She nods at Saxon.

[Sorry, ISP problems caused a double post. ]

The group manages to climb thier way out of the pit and are now on the 'west' side of it. Among the corpses (assuming people search while others climb) find an asortment of goblin sized (small) leather armor, the orc was wearing studded, some javalins, rusty daggers and short swords. You gather together 45gp in loose coins (Most coming from the orc). The item of most interest, however, is the orc's bow. Even a passing glance shows it's an item of great quality and beauty...something uncommon in an orc's hand.

Only whispers can now be heard from the room above, the goblins are still clearly there, but don't appear to be doing anything.

Actions?

"If I might impose. I could use a ranged weapon. may I use the Orc's bow?" Az says hopefuly

 

[Seonaid]

"If you haven't a weapon, take it," Kiralin says to Az. She will then look around this side of the pit to see if there's any way to get above. If not, she will head into the other room, bow drawn and ready.

[Is someone keeping a "party treasure" list?]

 

[Festy_Dog]

[ooc: Saxon could keep track of money if noone else does.]

Saxon and Mzarem follow Kiralin.

"My suspicion is that the bow is going to a rightful owner, this place was built by elves so I'd reckon it was just something the orc managed to loot from here," Saxon tells Az as they enter the next room, "The statues in this room give it away. Pity the dungeon came into orcish hands."

Killian puts his hand out, and asks,
"Kin I see tha bow?"

Killian pulls the string taut, testing the strength, trying to see if his strength of arms could be used well by the bow.

OOC: testing to se if it's a MW +2 Mighty Composite LOngbow

He'll also be looking it over to see if it looks like the bow that Torillan had on him before he....

Either way, he'll say
"Sooo.
Whare do ya be wantin' ta goo?
Tha north door, or the south?
A gobbo went down each hallway but a minute or so ago.
I couldn't catch up."
