Pebble keeps a distracted eye on the perimeter. He mostly watches Igber wrestle with the box.

Amethu takes his watch when necessary, and leaves the hunting and gathering to those better suited. He spends his time studying his spell book and praying to his ancient gods for guidance and wisdom. He will cast additional healing spells upon the wounded to return everyone to full strength. He wil...

Alordan suggests, "hey Grimble, why don't you take that box over there a little ways if you are set on opening it. Who knows what kind of trap that thing has on it?" With little else to do, he'll take a look at the sword and armor if no one else is poking around at it. The sword is quite ...

Androgst agrees, "Let's take this deal and see what we can learn. We have been in the dark here the whole time"

The second one is good also, but I was referring to the 'nonexistent library' and his tone in how he said it

Pebble helps sort through the items found. "I'm not so good with locks - but I sure as hell can smash it with my blade!"

Androgost considers the tactical advantages of hiring such an ally as this fire creature. As the way is made to gem, "Can you tell us about the earthquakes? Do you know how many Drow there are? How about a wizard - we seem to keep butting heads with one?"

For the record, I liked Crulocs initial reaction to amethu's whining about the library Good stuff!

Amethu stares quietly at Cruloc as he foolishly rages against his common sense and divine mission for history and knowledge. He makes no outward sign of his contempt at all. He realizes that he needs the likes of this brave barbarian to see him through. His thoughts do stray to his spell books then...

enjoy!!

Amethu echoes caution. "Indeed, let us not stray to far afield from the ancient city. Our quest lies there. Can we not find sustenance close by so that we can quickly return to our goal?"

Androgost scans the group for any major injuries or liabilities. "Could it be that pool of water we passed that it's referring to? Is this something we should spend precious time on - we have enemies all around us!"

Amethu watches quietly as Kiri weaves sorcery to unlock the hidden secrets of the weapon. Once complete, he plies his own sorcery to continue to replenish the strength of those who aide him in his quest...

Alordan looks over the pile in awe. "That is...amazing. Maag's right - we should definitely rest up before messing with this stuff."

Jorly studies the fields while he waits. He can’t help but notice how idyllic it all seems to be ….

Haldric looks surprised to see the mouse roar like that, "Now THAT is fascinating! What kind of mouse IS that?!?"

Amethu takes great interest in examining any piece of actual lore from ancient history. He applies his own knowledge to seeing what clues he can glean from the artifact, if any.... [1d20]=11 [1d100]=5 "I'm not sure how much I can tell you, to be honest, of it's purpose. I can be very clear of ...

Alordan imparts his own dose of wisdom to the unexpected situation, "I find that when you lower your expectations - or if you don't have any for that matter - you can never be disappointed. It's surprising how often this comes to be..." "Four days you say? Perhaps that's a blessing r...

Androgost deftly keeps to his feet and dodges the falling debris. He fumes at the voice coming through the chaos - mocking him…
