Drop of the planet? Yea, sort of. Came home from work and the wife took EVERYTHING. FINALLY got myself together. New stuff, new woman, new inspiration....anybody still miss me?

Without any real optional course of action, the others ready themselves at the southernmost door. Gilness requests Strongarm's assistance as the door is harder to push in than first expected. With the additional thrust, the door opens quickly. Both players begin hustling to shut the door, before the...

The thief is confident that all three 'pushdoors' are without traps.

Osric cannot help but picture a giant deathmonger pushing a giant cart of gold about.
A brief smile is smothered by his usual scowl at the more carefree of the bunch.

The human female being pulled out of the pit, shaking off the bones, her armor clanking here and there, brings none of the requested silence. On the contrary, as Gilnes listens at the doors, he senses that whoever is inside the cult's complex, is surely aware of you all. Just where they are lurking ...

Three 'secret' doors along the east wall are pretty obvious to the elf and dwarf. Gil picks up signs that only the northernmost has any sign of recent passage. Walking a few steps past the collection of secret doors, the elf realizes that he began his escape by running north from this spot. Which me...

"It all seems to easy.....Dont forget to look fer traps!!!"
Stonjuz has an uneasy feeling. He wants to cast Bless again, but doesnt want to appear 'needy' in front of his diety.
The Uncaring might start to care if he were to be called on so soon...again.

"Stay together" Osric waves an arm in Cil's direction and then motions the others to follow him to the north.

The dwarf cannot manage to keep his feet high enough out of the bones area of attack.
As Gilnes assists to pull him from the other side of the pit, two skulls have attached themselves to his boots and legs
(3 damage)

wading thru the hands and skulls isnt recommended, but it is probably survivable (the bones have very poor thaco) in the event a person got bit on every attack , 1d4+4 attacks per round for three rounds, would have been 48 max. (8+8+8) x 2 max damage but failing the dex check could screw with that n...

Are we expectin' this stair to be a passage offa' the mountain? If'n so, then by all means, lets go. Ogridor didnt see any other way around I s'pose?"

So... we are climbing a rope, hanging from above, across the pit? Double checking here before I state any actions. As I am picturing it.....more like a single rope bridge, swinging underneath, like monkey bars....or clinging to the walls , attemptng a spiderclimb. either way is gonna require streng...

yes

I just recovered from the flu too. Get well.
Sleep and meds.....mmmm , mmmm. good.

* Putting away his sword to look through his pack * ... I've got a grappling hook, 4 spikes and 50 feet rope. * setting it out * .... I'm sure burning would work - but I am concerned that it would be slow and hot. Perhaps once past we can burn them, slow down followers and clear our return. Gilnes ...

"More new construction ... on more dwarven stone?.....", Stonjuz falls silent in thought, thinking of the dwarven community that once thrived on this mountain. Again he yearns to leave this whole place as soon as possible.

If one can bring enough coin, the auction is also something not to be missed. And bring plenty of stuff to have the old guard autograph for you (if you like that sort of thing), they are all very eager to make guests feel wanted. I love this convention, but i cant make it this year......and this thr...

So, if I am looking at the map properly... we are on the bottom of it, just below the skeleton picture? You mentioned that the western and eastern passages are blocked off. Is that you just modifying the map to your campaign? . Correct, just below the skeleton pic. It's just my way of pointing the ...

With strength and steel, the clenching bones are removed from the doctor. He can see the wound (max damage from each bite is 2 damage) but is just as interested in the instrument of such (more for the collection back home?) it now functions much like the old wind up toys (clattering teeth) as it sti...
