Olleg, Dwarf Still slightly dazed by the weasel's vicious attack, Olleg takes a few moments to recover, while the rest of the party searches the dead guards. As the party prepares to move again, Olleg steels himself and resumes his position at the head of the marching order, alongside Brick. Alarme...

Olleg, Dwarf, 8/33

Dripping blood from the weasel's vicious attack, Olleg lunges at the beast, taking advantage of the opening created by Durrant's spell.

Shield bash to hit [1d20]=12
Bastard sword (1H) to hit [1d20]=19 for [1d8]=2 damage

I'm not sure what spells our clerics have available at the moment, but I wanted to suggest that a Command could be the best way to remove a weasel from someone. Particularly if the kit or free adult weasel latch on to someone, pretty much anyone besides Olleg is in immediate danger of dying. That bl...

Olleg, Dwarf, 14/33

"Get off me, you mangy rat!" Olleg bellows, striking at the weasel with its jaws around his neck.

Shield bash to hit [1d20]=1
Bastard sword (1H) to hit [1d20]=9 for [1d8]=6 damage

Good to see the party still has some higher levels spells available if we get into a pinc. Also thanks for those explanations of the reaction rolls, Straither! Olleg can definitely survive the next round with the blood sucking weasel latched onto him, assuming no other sources of damage. After that,...

I know that Chagg is still charmed by Edel. Once we start killing the orcs and weasels, do we expect the charm to break? If so, we should be careful not to allow Chagg to escape, as he could also raise the alarm. Being away from the main fight, if the charm breaks, Chagg would be in a good position ...

Aside from the sergeant, we should focus on killing these weasels. Olleg is our most sturdy fighter, so if anyone had to get bitten, I'm glad it was him. Unless he can get the weasel off of him, surviving longer than the next round or two will be difficult, though.

Olleg, Dwarf, 14/33 Surprised by the weasel's ferocity, Olleg stumbles back as the beast rends his throat. Recovering his footing, Olleg attempts to dislodge the weasel with both sword and shield. Shield bash to hit [1d20]=1 Bastard sword (1H) to hit [1d20]=6 for [1d8]=1 damage The dice really do n...

It definitely makes more sense for Olleg to be in the front line with Brick. Otherwise, I'm fine with either suggested marching order.

Opening combat with Sleep is a great idea. Like you suggested, we should focus on the sergeant and attempt to stop him from sounding the alarm.

Olleg, Dwarf

When offered, Olleg will smear himself with the ooze, grimacing slightly as he does so. Wary of the aspis, he remains silent, but on guard, allowing the others to negotiate and choose the party's path through the hive.

Olleg, Dwarf Unsure how much Elwita's senses can be trusted given her recent ordeal, Olleg still nods along with her claims of other captive dwarves. "While the slavers and aspis are working together, they remain formidable foes. If we strike at the slavers first, their current captives could ...

Olleg, Dwarf Realizing that dispatching the party's captive in front of the charmed orc might not encourage further cooperation, Olleg asks Brick or Elwita for help in moving the bound orc into the ladder room. Once in the ladder room, Olleg will execute the prisoner and leave the orc's body with t...

If we're going to attempt to trade with the aspis, I would suggest doing so at the entrance to the aspis cave. Going back to the entrance in the ladder room might not be a good idea, since we were forced to take care of the sentry in that room. Another probe from that direction might be taken as hos...

Olleg, Dwarf Impressed by Elwita's resolve, Olleg says to her, "I would be honored to fight alongside another stalwart dwarven warrior. The suffering of our kin will not go unanswered!" Turning now to eye the captive orc, he grimly states, "Those who consort with slavers and such mon...

I think staying underground is definitely our best bet for avoiding raising the alarm again. Heading to the reserved market seems like a clear next step that should be doable if we can successfully trade with the aspis. Once we reach the market and hopefully free the slaves there, we should start se...

Olleg, Dwarf

Olleg will continue to watch over the captive orcs, while others conduct the interrogation. Keeping his weapon sheathed for now, he stands apart from the others, scowling at the prisoners.

Olleg, Dwarf Grunting his acknowledgement, Olleg finishes binding the first orc and moves on to the charmed orc. As requested, he only disarms the captive and then thoroughly searches the orc. Olleg is especially concerned with checking for other weapons or anything that could give the party more i...

Olleg, Dwarf "Somebody should interrogate these orcs, once they can speak again. Killing them immediately only gains us their silence," says Olleg to the rest of the party. "I'm probably not the dwarf for that job, but I will start binding them." He then takes a coil of rope out...

Olleg's top priority is definitely the mission as you have it stated. In a last desperate hope, your group; an eclectic bunch of novice adventurers, have been tasked with succeeding where others seemingly failed. Scout the ruined Temple, eliminate the senior slave traders, destroy the slaving infras...

I think interrogating the two orc guards we have held is a good idea. Part of our mission is to free as many captives as possible, so we need to find the main slave pens. The guards might be able to tell us where and how well guarded the slave pens are.
