Rida

"Fine with me, we don't look to good."

Keya grabs his bow, and heads into the cave with help to assist with carrying back of the treasure.

Keya Redd

Renna

"Given that people being taking to the Clerics were taken out of the cave and in the Cave of Unknown we found a skeleton army, I am assuming that the Clerics are over there. Yes, let us get the treasure and split."

Dredd

The Half-Orc, now silent and somewhat brooding, helps gather the treasure to leave.

Bugs

He looks up at the Paladin. "I found all the real traps, this is just for fun between thieves. A way to see who isn't being loyal."

As the conversation turns back to his treasure, Bugs is quick to lead the way back to the cash and the damsel.

Stobart is happy to carry treasure or people, as needed.

Back To The Caves
Reunited
Early Afternoon, Clear

Haldric snaps out of it to heal Keya back to a functional state, allowing the Ranger to tend to the still unconscious Crabgrass. Unfortunately, in all the excitement, it seems the dexterously challenged half-elf is forgotten, by everyone but Loyn that is. As the dwarf rushes in and frisks the half-elf, eventually finding his prized magic dog biscuit safe and sound in one pocket, Cobb watches the routine. "We didn't actually know this cat bird was coming towards us, so we.....didn't actually do anything to block the way either. If he is Invisible and any good at his trade, he surely could have slipped right by us in that hallway. Did anyone hear him or feel anything weird as we passed this way?"

Gyb speaks again, confusing the group even further with his slip-ups and odd sentence structure. He mentions that a second bandit may have run off to warn the others, if there are indeed others to warn. It is eventually agreed upon that the group should probably leave this place before any more trouble shows up, but after looking around at each other and making many suggestions about taking the money and running away, none of the party members actually do as they suggest.

Renna reminds the group that her initial party found a proverbial army of undead in the Cave of the Unknown, wisely assuming the two are related in some way.

The group discusses possibilities for the broken glass and stopper on the floor, agreeing that it must have been intended as a distraction of some sort. Seeing more talk than actions, Blue Bugs reminds Crobeus that thieves sometimes leave loyalty traps behind for their own kind, in case of any sticky finger syndrome in the guild. He silently wonders if that is anything like his recently acquired blue gnome syndrome as he alone rushes back towards the woman he tried to release a few moments ago. He is immediately followed by Dredd, also wishing to find this treasure the others mentioned. When the blue painted gnome rounds the last corner before that room, he sees that the door they left wide open is somehow closed (and locked) again.

Keya walks in and see Crabgrass unconscious.

He walks to him and calls on his god.

CLW [1d8]=3

well thats 4 out of 16 for today, wow.

Keya Redd

Rida

Rida follows along behind Dredd.

Crobeus - Human Paladin

Making sure that all of their party is now at least able to walk on their own, the paladin offers his lantern to someone who doesn't need both hands for combat. 'Can someone carry this so my sword is ready if needed?"

When they find the door closed and locked, he stands to the side where it'll open, shield ready, prepared to defend against an attack. "Pim or Bugs, one of you guys want to open this for us?" he asks, quietly. When the door opens, he'll enter if he's not met by a melee attacker or some other immediate threat.

Pim shrugs grabs some treasure and puts it in his pack then goes over to see what the paladin wants his help with opening. "I can give it a try Crobeus." moving to the locked door and gives it a shot but shrugs when he isn't able to crack the lock open. "Afraid my skills are too low to manage it."

Meinhardt


"A few of us should circle around to the other cave entrance, block any attempt to escape that way."

Meinhardt starts moving in that direction ...

Rida

Rida will position himself so he can attack from behind Crobeus if necessary.

Loyn-Dwarf fighter

“Cobb is right, if he were invisible the only way to know he’s there is by touch or smell! I was thinking bottle of oil, not invisibility potion!” Loyn watches as the mage is revived, saying to him, “Looks like you’ve seen better days! I have the biscuit and I believe I know how it should be used!” He winks at Crabgrass, then heads down the hallway toward the others.

Bugs

"My Treasure! Oh, uh. and the girl!" Bugs expresses dismay as the door is locked and Pim tries his hand. Bugs will follow the attempt with one of his own.

Pick Locks(49):[1d100]=62 He is clearly rushing things and isn't able to unlock it. "Knock it down! Do it! My treasure is in there!"

Renna

Renna will line up at the door with staff in hand behind forming lines

Where is all this treasure coming from that people keep grabbing?

The only treasure found so far was in a chest that was left 2 rooms behind, and in the last room you suddenly lost access to.

Dredd just sighs and shakes his head at the locked door. He turns around and heads back the way they came, all the way to the entrance to Cave B.
"See you back in Longspear," he says to Magdal and Pim as he passes them.

Keya walks in and see Crabgrass unconscious.

He walks to him and calls on his god.

Crabgrass rolls over, coming too from faintness after bleeding out everywhere from multiple stab wounds and leaking from other orifices.

Numerous faces stare down upon him, a dwarf frisks him, comrades who travelled to the Keep together, minus one. He lifts a heavy prosthetic arm to give a somatic blessing and greeting.

Groggily he stands,

"I have the biscuit and I believe I know how it should be used!"

He remembers his prayerful investigation of the heirloom. it may help you communicate to canines? was his original thoughts.

As folk mill about, he will ask about Dubricus and the escape from the caves.

Magdal

Magdal tosses Bugs the earring she found, looking at the woman to see if there is any reaction. When she runs into the *spiderweb* she runs her hands over her face and through her hair searching for any webbing. "I hate spiders," she says though she is surprised to not find any traces of what she ran into, "Did anyone see a web? Perhaps it was a warning trap of some sort."
