To The Steading

[tumblingdice]

Duvli starts to grumble. "This is too easy. When's the other shoe gonna drop?"

[spanningtree]

Saphrax and Fergus take a look at the bar. It is a simple metal bar, it has the look of a blank that blacksmiths use for making swords with. Fergus dumps it over the side of the tower to make sure it does not come into contact with the triangle.

Wilryn searches the room and finds an old round of cheese and twenty six rounds of silver. There is not much up here.

The rest of the party returns downstairs. There are three doors to the north to choose from (see the map).

[greyarea]

Master of Dragons listens at the large double doors.

Hear Noise 25% [1d100] = 25

[Mant72]

Cathedra listens to the door on the far side of the room, the one to the west.

[Dram]

Vacarxia- Listens at the first door.

Hear Noise 30% [1d100] = 36

[Craigers07]

Wilryn - Gnome Illusionist

Wilryn pockets the silver and heads downstairs.

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven and his dog await which door the party opens Joven switches back to his crossbow to back the door checkers up show one open a door.

[tumblingdice]

Duvli, hammer at the ready, heads for the easternmost door.

[badams30]

Fergus - Fighter

Fergus follows the stealthier members downstairs, waiting till a door is chosen. He says "if there is noise, I say we poke around where it's quiet. We can eliminate small groups or individuals before we are discovered. With luck we can get this place emptied of trash quickly."

OOC: Hey - did we secure the big door behind us (The one leading to the outside?) Obviously someone will find this mess eventually, but better for us if we secure the door and do what we can to isolate this room.

No particular preference for doors, We could check the big doors, then maybe take the one to the right? Whatever.

[Mant72]

Yes, spiking closed the doors we entered through is a great idea.

[connivingsumo]

SAPHRAX: MU
Looks for another blank, or some other item to secure the large doors.

OOC: Old School D&D Elves could hear noise, but it was on a d6 rather than the Thief's d100. Is that the case with the system we're using? I wanted Saphrax to listen for noise at the door, but wasn't sure if A) he was allowed based on his race alone, and B) which macro to use.

[spanningtree]

All of the doors are listened at. A party seems to be emanating from the center double doors. Even through the thick doors a lot of voices can be heard and there is some form of merriment at play behind them. Listening to the smaller doors to either side yields no noise from them. None of the doors have locking mechanisms.

[Mant72]

Cathedra:

After listening to the door, Cathedra steps away and whispers to the others, "My vote is to avoid the double doors. I suggest we try one of these side doors." She then returns to the single door to the left, checks it for traps, and if she finds none, she will crack it open to peer within.

I didn't know if you would prefer to roll Find Traps or me, but I went ahead and included one anyway. Let me know if you prefer to do the checks. I know different DMs do differnt things.

Find/Remove Traps (75%): [1d100] = 76

[GreyWolfVT]

Joven nods "Very well lets check the side doors first then." loading a bolt into his crossbow "Rex and I will back you up."

[Dram]

Vacarxia- Move with the others to the single door. He will stay alert for any of the other opening.

[spanningtree]

There are two single doors, one to the left of the double doors and one to the right. Which one is being opened and by whom?

[Mant72]

Cathedra cracked open the one to the left after searching for traps.

[badams30]

Fergus - Fighter

Fergus will stand close by Cathedra with his sword ready.

[GreyWolfVT]

As stated above

Joven and Rex back up by the door to the left. Covering whomever opens it with crossbow and "teeth".

[tumblingdice]

Duvli readies his hammer, prepared to head through the door. "I'm too old for parties, anyway," he grumbles.
