[UaVS] The Silver Door IC

OOC: Hey guys! I'm back. Still won't be posting too much for the next couple of days (really behind in my work)

However, I don't think Wesellu has any money. Looking pretty grim ...

I'll see if maybe I can work in a post later today.

OoC:Sorry all, I took a rather nasty slip/fall and whacked my head Friday night at work, and I haven't been online since, as a result.

Here's a Map, why don't you folks work out a Plan in the OoC thread if you like. I still have not heard from Garyh and he hasn't posted in quite a few days...

Enraela has some but not much. Just enough for her, Arngen and Gentaria. We think we spent all our party money and bought everything Enraela had asked for from the merchants. (if I'm wrong, Uriel will correct me)

Readies her crossbow for a nice shot if something pokes its ugly head up from the water.
 

Turning to Enraela, Wesellu whispers to her.

"I have no money with me. I did not plan on shopping while out here."

Preparing an Alter Self, designed to grow a pair of gills, Wesellu watches anxiously as the creatures and their dam draw closer.

Enraela sighs, glancing with lavender eyes at Wesselu. Enough then for Arngen, Wesselu and herself...since Gentaria might have money of her own.
 

IC: "Will they take trade? We have some weapons and armor here they may use perhaps for trade for passage. They are merly fishmen, and why waste our breath on these creatures?"
 

OoC:I Still have not heard from Garyh. Perhaps he is finally at his breaking point as far as limit/games go, and this is one of the first casualties of that. No matter, I will play Brogark until he returns, or from now on if need be, as I really don't want to wait any longer.

IC: The Kuo-Toa on the Dam shuffle about behind their barricade, awaiting the answer from your Party. Finally, one moves to a spot where you can see it more easily <only half-cover> and says in it's sibilant croaking voice 'You pay must now, Drow, for Kuo-Toa own River. Pay or feed the Dweller-Deep you will.' It does not sound as if he is inviting you to throw a snack to his pet, but rather that you will be said snack...

The water at the base of the Dam begins to become more agitated, as if something large awaited just beneath the surface. Small wavelets hit your boat, causing it to rock gently back and forth, and those in the first boat <Wesellu,Enraela,Grolvus,Arngen,feel soemthing *Bump* the bottom of their boat, though slightly.
The Kuo-Toa await your answer.
 

Enraela sighs inwardly. Not enough money indeed, and their time here talking was wasted. They needed to get there now and before the others racing would get ahead of them.

"We have some fine weapons to trade for passage," she speaks, gesturing toward the weapons they picked up from their previous fights. "Surely this is enough for such few as we."

The Kuo-Toa seeem to be talking amongst themselves, discussing the Weapons for trade.
From within the water at the base of the Dam, a Kuo-Toa surfaces and swims to the boat containing Enraela. The Fish-Man's grey-green face and staring yellow eyes reflect off of the phospherescent lichen covering the walls and ceiling of the tunnel, unblinking and impassive.
The Kuo-Toa speaks 'Show me weapons, and gold too, need some gold, Elf...you pay great Kuo-Toa, or you feed Dweller-Deep.'
Arngen detects movement in the water near the other side of the boat, as does Brogark from his position in the other boat.
'Mistress, an Ambush!'
the Hobgoblin yells, casting a knife into the water < 6HP>, striking a Kuo-Toa surfacing behind Arngen.
It would seem that Enraela's attempts at Diplomacy have met with less than favorable response, or perhaps the Kuo-Toa never intended to act with any Honor...

Several Kuo-Toa are visable, though they have half-cover from the water.
<s> = suprise round, Brogark has acted already.
Brogark 24 <s>
Enraela 23 <s>
Jikull 22
Arngen 21 <s>
Vitrene 17
Grolvus 16
Gentaria 14
Wesellu 11 <s>

After the Suprise round, I will post Kuo-Toa initiatives. They Fish Men seem totally caught off guard that you were aware of their deception <Brogark did get a 25 Spot...>
 

OOC: Awww Crap water combat!!!


IC: Knowing full well that the water below holds death for one such as himself the barbarian bellows at the top of his lungs "To the Dam! We must secure the dam for we are dead if we remain here in the water for they hold this ground! Row for it as if your life mattered on it! Someone get rid of those creatures on the dam or stop whatever it is in the water! We are doomed if we fall in!!" With that he feels the energy boiling inside him grow faster, the pressure of the oncoming battle, the tense situation being ahead and the thought of skewering a fishman and letting the blood of his enemy spill before him!


OOC: Rage, then ROW! ROW ROW TOWARD THE DAM!!
