Of course he would. :P But Telkis is better armored than Pelias, has more HP, and having the gnome in front lets Grothnak attack from behind him (I think). Plus, having Pelias third in line maximizes coverage of his protection aura.

Yes. But fumbles will result in a chance to hit Telkis, rather than a random roll on the Fumble chart.

Grothnak is okay with that tradeoff. If small warrior doesn't want to get hit, small warrior should not get in way. ;)

Great.

No locking device. There is an iron ring, identical to the one set into the other side of the trapdoor.

FYI's:
1) The ladder is just leaning against the wall. It's not secure.
2) Hoom knows the trapdoor was hidden under a rug in Bertram Beswill's bedroom.
3) There is another door into this chamber, as per the map posted here.
Thanks.

Hey, guys. I've been trying to get to these forums, but I've been crushed at work this week. Will try to post tomorrow am, but if you need to move it along, please NPC Telkis as necessary.

Long Bo's lantern will eliminate the combat and movement restrictions I mentioned in the DM Notes spoiler.

Ingrid nods to the Mouser, than steps forward, holding up her holy symbol, the tryskelion. The silver medallion starts to glow...

Fulci, please roll 1d20 to Turn Undead and link it to a post. You want to roll high.
Please also roll 1d12 in case you are successful, to show how many undead are affected. Thanks.

Also: I require line of sight between undead creatures and the holy symbol of a turning cleric. So either:
  • a) The ladder can get Ingrid above this crowded room.
    or
    b) Pelias fights alongside Telkis (with the combat effects described in the DM Notes of this post) so that Ingrid can attempt to Turn Undead from the second rank.
As AleBelly/Pelias is on vacation, the choice is yours, Fulci/Ingrid.

I think Ingrid leaves the ladder free (so that Moogieye could escape), and she turns undead from the second rank. Does that put any restrictions on line of sight?

The roll (I will add it to my in-game post as well):
Turn undead: [1d20] = 16, [1d12] = 10
G A M E S :
Running Vaults & Wastelands [Fallout]
Isaiah Bartlett in That Which Should Not Be [CoC]
Ingrid Esthof in The Horror at Briarsgate [1e]
