He will place the palm of his hand on each of the chairs to feel for body heat and try to get an idea of roughly how long the room has been vacant.

Actually it was notified to the others to come down earlier.

Was my post prior to the one our DM has pointed out.

Rician Lockwindberg - Paladin - AC 3 HP: 12/14:

I must have read that as simply that Arastor indicated the opening in the trunk at first.

Anyways Rician had gone over & placed himself inside the tree tunnel & awaited a signal to move in farther.

Instead he hears the sounds of surprise & a fight, so Rician will move down in farther to have a look, if it appears

Arastor & Canis needs immediate help he will jump into the fray right away.

If it appears the two are coming back up through the tree tunnel he will wait there to jump upon baddies.

In either case Rician uses his Bastard Sword, well, for show in this case:

To Hit Roll: [1d20] = 3; Bastard Sword Damage Roll: [2d4] = 4 S/M [2d8] = 13 Large

Canis(Crow) Attacks the surprised men with the others, his aim is off due to the confined quarters it seems.

Crow Broad Sword, To Hit: [1d20] = 4, Damage: S/M[2d4] = 5, L[1d6+1] = 5+1 = 6

Welp... so much for our surprise round.

Shay

In the back of the pack with Zylax.
Whats happening down there? Should we come down or not?

She continues to look about in the darkness trying to locate anyone coming towards us.

Surprise Round:
it appears the surprise caught everyone off guard on both ends

Canis shoots an arrow right into a wooden beam near one of the men sitting in the room
Arastor rushes in and hits the wall with his weapon.
Rician rushes in hearing sounds of battle and is in such a rush he misses the man who fumbled his sword.
Shay is not sure if she should go down or not hears a lot of noise and simply asks Should I go down or not?
Zylax shrugs unsure what they should do.

The bandit closer to the secret door reaches for his sword and accidentally fumbles the thing around onto the floor.
The one near where Canis was aiming stands and trips over his chair.
The last one tries to throw a dagger at Canis and hits the secret door's jam.

filled in for Zylax but can change if needed.

Rician Lockwindberg - Paladin - AC 3 HP: 12/14:

Rician will continue to attack the man that fumbled his sword for his next action.

To Hit Roll: [1d20] = 3; Bastard Sword Damage Roll: [2d4] = 5 S/M [2d8] = 8 Large

Oh geez man!

Shay motions for Zylax to enter the stairway. She knows the fighters don't need the two of them getting in the way so she waits in the stairwell and closes the cellar (tree trunk) door behind them.

She periodically lifts the door just enough to peer out with her infravision. If she sees anyone coming towards the door, she bars it as best she can and alerts the others.

Zylax nods and does as Shay directs.

again just npcing unless player has other ideas.

Zylax

yes those actions are fine zylax will hang back and make sure we aren't ambushed

For the record Crow was not using his bow during that turn, using his sword instead.

Crow continues the attack.

Crow Broad Sword, To Hit: [1d20] = 9, Damage: S/M[2d4] = 6, L[1d6+1] = 4+1 = 5

Gack! Now we all roll badly and get hurt from some simple mobs...

Arastor, frustrated with his poor attack, yanks his sword out and around, attacking the guard but unbalanced by his own attempt to pull his sword.

Long Sword, Attack [1d20] = 3 Damage [1d8] = 4

Why is the Benny Hill theme song playing in my head right now?

Suddenly everyone on both sides of this fight looks like Benny Hill.....
Round 1/whatever:

Canis misses with his sword.
Arastor misses with his sword.
Shay & Zylax hold the door to the tree shut from the inside and listen to see if their friends need help.
Rician..... swings again with his sword and misses.

Bandit 1 gathers his sword up and swings wildly missing Rician.
Bandit 2 gathers his senses and swings at Canis but misses.
Bandit 3 takes out a dagger and swings for Arastor hitting him in the left forearm 3dmg.

Round 2 or w/e.....

Redoubling his efforts, Arastor swings at Bandit 3.

Long Sword, Attack [1d20] = 13 Damage [1d8] = 4
Hits AC6

Rician Lockwindberg - Paladin - AC 3 HP: 12/14:

Rician again swing his bastard sword at the bandit that initially fumbled, this time it's a solid hit:

To Hit Roll: [1d20] = 19; Bastard Sword Damage Roll: [2d4] = 5 S/M [2d8] = 4 Large

Canis(Crow) Swings again but still cannot seem to find his footing...

Crow Broad Sword, To Hit: [1d20] = 6, Damage: S/M[2d4] = 3, L[1d6+1] = 1+1 = 2

Round 2ish

Arastor manages to get himself under control and hits the bandit he was after for 4 dmg
Rician gets a solid hit on the bandit he was facing off with for 5 dmg
Canis still off of his aim misses again.
Shay
Zylax

Bandit v Canis hits for 4 dmg
Bandit v Rician misses distracted by his wound.
Bandit v Arastor his Arastor for 5 dmg + 2 dmg Crit sorry doing their crits differently.
DM rolls for Bandits: Round 3?

Shay

Hearing the sounds of battle below, Shay heads down the steps and into the underground room. As she leaves she motions to Zylax to continue watching the door. Our friends might be getting hurt down there and may need healing.

I will assume that it's close quarters fighting and that you guys prolly don't want me throwing daggers at your backs so.......if anyone wants a CLW just yell!

Ok seriously now??
