Xuande: Scaph is being a slowpoke, and someone else I think?
GM: I’m still getting set… blame the DM
GM: Stupid work emergencies
Campaign saved.
Ferret (Xuande): And he had french fries, which I looted and am eating. :D
GM: Did I hand out XP for dealing with Troyas well?
King Mob (Alastair Danaan): it was fine… don’t let my comments get on your nerves :)
Ferret (Xuande): The only specific XP I remember was for fighting fires once, I think?
Ferret (Xuande): The rest were always for fights.
Atras: there was a minor XP for firefighting
4dSwissCheese (Erethis): I thought we got some for the conversation with the hobgoblin

GM: you should have gotten 25 each from Troyas
Ferret (Xuande): Oh, cool. :) So the max possible now should be… 383 then?
Rich: hmm
GM: Yes
Ferret (Xuande): Okie. Thanks. :)
Ferret (Xuande): Scaph’s busy fighting with FG2 on his new hard drive/OS, he forgot he’d need to
Nosferatu (Rich): can we role for a skill check assist?
GM: Ardil was supposedly going to be late, but I see him here
Ferret (Xuande): Sure. Roll your computer skill, with a −20 penalty due to cryptic OS. :D
GM: so we are down two, but with one on the way, right?
Ferret (Xuande): Yeah, Scaph’ll hopefully be along soon.
4dSwissCheese (Erethis): He (Liquid) is semi-afk looking after his kid.
Nosferatu (Rich): I say we wait a few minutes, we’re shy our cleric..
Ferret (Xuande): True.. being short on a healer makes me whimpery.
Liquidmantis (Ardril): Yeah, I’m eavesdropping and chat buffering.
Nosferatu (Rich): which OS he using?
Liquidmantis (Ardril): but my attention is split right now.
Atras: what ever happened to be overloaded with Leaders?
Ferret (Xuande): Vista
4dSwissCheese (Erethis): Especially makes me nervous being short the healer who can turn undead.
Campaign saved.
Nosferatu (Rich): we sure he can *turn* undead?
4dSwissCheese (Erethis): No, I suppose not. But the other option is pretty useful too…
Nosferatu (Rich): can evil clerics not dominate them anymore?
Atras: he’s not evil, just an agent of Death’s godess
Ferret (Xuande): I was going to say “he’s not evil, just misunderstood’ :(
Nosferatu (Rich): LOL sounds like a disagreement I had with one DM over if using poisoned blades would make my character evil or not.
Ferret (Xuande): Scaphism, to his regret, is. :P
Nosferatu (Rich): he argued that using poison was an inherently evil thing to do, while I argued that stabbign people is considered evil usually as well.
‘Scaphism’ connected
Nosferatu (Rich): so where do we send a few bucks to pay for a new mic for Atras?

Godryk (Godryk): The answer to life the universe and everything!
Spiv: [3] [2d4 = 3]
Spiv: [41] [17d4 = 41]
Nosferatu (Rich): I think at level 1 it’s not so great, but I can see later on that it would kick butt when you have a guy that deals lots of damage (or say a rogue that gets a sneak attack)
GM: Looks like your Cleric will be taking down your cap site
Spiv: Blast!
Erethis → Power [Commander’s Strike] → Attack: An ally of your choice makes a melee basic attack against the target; Hit: Ally’s basic attack damage + your INT.
Liquidmantis (Ardril): everytime someone says errata I first hear erotica then it reprocesses. Just a little insight into my inner workings.
Campaign saved.
As Thalamus takes care of the camp, the rest of you take a look at the remains of Rivenroar Castle
Spiv: Is the DM playing Thalamus?
Atras: I can do that, I guess
Atras: I feel like I won’t do Benticore justice
Scaphism (Spiv): Or he can hang behind.
GM: The Castle of Rivenroar is in bad repair. The walls have nearly all collapsed, and the vines growing over the remaining walls threaten to pull down the rest. You can still see the depression of an old trail going to where there would have been a gate, a long time ago. You have to assume that this place was sacked when the Red Hand Army attacked the Vale ten years ago, and has not generated interest in restoring it. The catacombs, however, are a different story. The thick double wooden doors barring entry to the catacombs look untouched by the years, clearly a magic spell was used on them. There is no sign of a lock of any sort on the doors, neither a bar to keep unsavory haunts out, nor a keyhole into which a key might fit, just a simple latch. Above the door is a marble mantle, with three names engraved on it in a pyramid structure: Von Urstadt, Rivenroar,Von Jallach.
4dSwissCheese (Erethis): Yeah…he slept in
Alastair Danaan: Well. I’m not going first.
Nosferatu (Rich): just randomly cobble some vowels and sonsanants together…
Nosferatu (Rich): LOL my bad ont he typo
Ardril: I want to inspect the doors before we try anything.
Erethis: Yeah - go for it.
Ardril → Skill [Arcana] [26] [1d20+9 = 26]
Xuande: The door does look a little too inviting..
King Mob (Alastair Danaan): srsly, here I’ll do it. “Youth Garble Garble Yellow Submarine”
King Mob (Alastair Danaan): “Coo coo cachoo”
Atras: I and I no gwan t’ be mekin an attempt at mimicing our voodoo man
Nosferatu (Rich): what cleric, little Timmy ferll down the wella gain?
King Mob (Alastair Danaan): That’s Sulik.
Erethis: Does it look like the ground around the doors get used frequently? Tracks and whatnot?
4dSwissCheese (Erethis): That should have been ooc
GM: There are footprints in and out of the door
Godryk → Skill [Perception] [21] [1d20+1 = 21]
Alastair Danaan is carefully looking around for backstabbing Goblins
Godryk checking the doors
Alastair Danaan → Skill [Perception] [8] [1d20+6 = 8]
GM: There are recent signs of clearing the flora from the visible edges of the catacomb
Alastair Danaan: I see one! Ahh!
Campaign saved.
GM: It appears as though the Hand does not want to give a bad first impression
Alastair Danaan hides behind Rich
Erethis: Well, then, this seems to be the front door…
Spiv: Do we want to head in the front door?
Alastair Danaan: Well, perhaps it was just a trick of the light…
Xuande: waits patiently, knowing this sort of activity isn’t his strong suit.
Nosferatu (Rich): Start talking or rich starts opening doors.
Godryk (Godryk): Should we come up with a marching order or is that necesary?
Alastair Danaan: OK, let’s go in. But I reiterate. Not me first.
GM: remember, the people captured have been held hostage for at least two day now
Erethis: Not if there’s another optiond. Perhaps someone with sharp eyes should take a quick look for another entrance.
Atras: marching orders are probably good
Spiv: I’ll take a quick look.
Spiv: For another entrance.
Spiv → Skill [Perception] [18] [1d20+9 = 18]
Alastair Danaan tries to stick near the back of the party
[w] → Spiv: nope, nothing jumps out at you
Xuande: Alright. We’ll wait here. If you don’t find one, make sure this door is safe and then we’ll go in.
Spiv spends a few minutes searching for tracks or any sign of another entrance, without any luck.
Spiv: None.
Rich thinks that the rogue should take point, then he shall lead the remainder.
Spiv: Okay…
Nosferatu (Rich): I was the only fighter right?
Xuande would be willing to walk third, behind Rich.
Spiv: Well there’s hardly a door invented that I haven’t found a way through.
Erethis: I’m happy to go behind him.
Ferret (Xuande): HOLY CRAP A MAP LOADED FAST
Spiv inspects the doorframe for likely traps
Nosferatu (Rich): I would suggest wqe keep a good defender type near the rear as well in case of attack fromt hat direction.
Spiv → Skill [Perception] [21] [1d20+9 = 21]

Erethis: They’re already gone…
Alastair Danaan: too late. We should pull back and regroup.
Ardril: I could stand to catch my breath.
Alastair Danaan: They went in three different directions. Too dangerous to follow them all in a dark tunnel.
Spiv glares at the others. “We shouldn’t let them get away.”
Alastair Danaan: I’m going out to rest.
Nosferatu (Rich): wouldn’t the warlock know if the one guy died, or did he not have him cursed?
Erethis: We’ll take care of them in due course.

GM: These bound iron doors have latches, but no locks. The west doors have a plaque on it that says “To Von Urstadt.” The north doors say “To Rivenroar Family.” The east doors say “To Von Jallach.”
Rich: I say we go west, since we are not likely to run into any hordes that direction since they didn’t get a warning yet.
Campaign saved.
GM: Decision?
Spiv: Not a bad idea.
Erethis: I don’t know - it would seem odd for them to retreat away from the hostages…
Spiv: Who knows what else they have in here.
Xuande: But they were trying to escape from all three directions.
Rich: We stopped the one goblin from escaping in that direction.
Spiv: The rooms could connect just past the doors.
Godryk: We would potentially be leaving ourselves open for attack from the rear.
Alastair Danaan: West is fine with me. All directions are the same.
Xuande: True.. but that’s a risk no matter what we do in here.
Ardril: Lead on.
Rich: We leave ourselves open to that in any direction we go.
During your short rest, you see that the Hobgoblins were wearing Scale Armor, with a Heavy Shield and a Flail each
Alastair Danaan: Precisely.
Godryk: Ok. West it is.
Erethis: Alright - west is fine.
Alastair Danaan searches their bodies to see if they had any cash.
Godryk searches the bodies.
the Skullcleaver was wearing chainmail and wieling a battleaxe
combined, they had 12 sp
Xuande: I don’t know if we can haul all this around, unfortunately..
King Mob (Alastair Danaan): woohoo
Spiv looks for gold or written instructions.
Rich: Give it to Spiv he looks like a trustworthy kind of guy.
Erethis: I’ll take one of the shields, for now.
Spiv flashes his most/least trustworthy grin.
Nosferatu (Rich): hmm isn’t there supposed to be a check penalty for a heavy shield?
Spiv smiles, and you wonder “Are his teeth pointed? It must be a trick of a light.”
GM: You open the door to the west into a dark hallway
Rich: perhaps we can hide this armor outside?
4dSwissCheese (Erethis): If I have it slung on my back and aren’t using it?
Nosferatu (Rich): I’m attacking!
GM: The hallway turns 90 degrees to the north
Campaign saved.
