chris107: Morning James
JamesDevil: morning
JamesDevil: is anyone missing Aid?
Keelia: ME
chris107: Me too
Keelia: sorry for caps. new keyboard - the keys are oddly spaced
JamesDevil: Aid cast for everyone then
Keelia: thanks!
chris107: (I am also 2HP down)
chris107: Thanks
JamesDevil: wel now you have +5 temp hp
chris107: Fab
chris107: 47/44HP
chris107: and one Second Wind used.
Smon: GM: You are currently in the shrine/bedchamber of the ogre shaman, stairs down to north.
JamesDevil: "down we go I suppose?
chris107: (I have no exits from that area marked on my map
Keelia: Bright Star nods and takes the stairs back down
chris107: except along the long N-S corridor
Keelia: (we went up the stairs to the loft, now we go back down then back out of the room into the corridor, I think)
Smon: Yup no other exits. The stairs to north go back down to the large three-tiered hall with the corridor off to the north.
Keelia: Bright Star is going to have a quick look for hidden doors
chris107: yup, that's how I've got it
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 19, (+6) = 25
Smon: BS checks the walls - definitely solid, she is confident no secret doors here.
Keelia: (what a lovely roll to start, and probably wasted  )
chris107: So back north and look into the first chamber on the west?
Keelia: She trots back down the stairs and heads back to the corridor
chris107: (opposite the blocked off door)
chris107: (M lowers the light from his sword down to 'low')
Keelia: (there is North and the door to examine? The door leads down?)
chris107: (I have an opening opposite the barricaded door/store room and then further north steps down?)
Smon: >>back north and look into the first chamber on the west?<< Down the north corridor 30' there is a landing chamber to west with stairs going down from its west end. This is opposite a closed door in the east wall, which Mordred reckons must be the same door blocked off by furniture on its east side (+25 map XP Mordred) 
Smon: To the north the corridor continues north.
chris107: yup
Keelia: ah, now i understand what you meant by blocked. I thought we removed the furniture to get through so I got confused
Keelia: Bright Star will stealth north
Keelia rolls 1d20+13 and gets: 3, (+13) = 16
chris107: (Posted my map)
chris107: M waits on the landing area
Keelia: Bright Star looks to him. "Shall Bright Star go first?"
chris107: (Oh sorry, thought you meant north-north. )
Smon: >>Bright Star will stealth north<< BS heads north down the corridor. After about 30' she reaches a broad archway in the east wall leading to the chamber with the pressure plate/gas trap. Just to the north are stairs going down about 15', it looks as if the corridor continues north beyond the stairs. BS saw 2 ogres there before, no sign of them now.
chris107: "By all means my feline friend."
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 4,
Keelia: She glances at the others to see if they wish to proceed this direction,
Smon: Are the others following BS north down the corridor?
chris107: Could we have a description of what M sees from the landing firt? Then catch up?
Smon: Mordred is standing on the landing. It has a largish alcove on the north side. On the west side spiral steps descend steeply into darkness.
chris107: he'll listen down the stairs then if all is silent move north after BS
chris107 rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 10, (+3) = 13
Smon: Faint sounds drift up the stairs from below, it sounds like a deep, angry, inhuman voice muttering to itself.
JamesDevil: Danor will follow as stealthily as hit armour will allow
chris107: He will advise the others when we are all together,
Smon: Danor stomps north after BS.
Keelia: Bright Star is still looking back, waiting to see who is going where.
JamesDevil:
chris107: M creeping up to catch up with BS
Smon: Mordred leaves the alcove and catches up with the others down the corridor, just south of the northern stairs, with the pressure plate room to east.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Keelia: Bright Star will continue forward, keeping an eye out for traps (pp 18, pi 16)
Smon: BS creeps down the short flight of stairs until the tunnel levels out again. There are recent ogre footprints on the muddy stone floor here. The tunnel runs north another 20' or so to a T junction.
Keelia: Which way does the footprints head?
Smon: back and forth.
Smon: Can roll investigation.
Smon: or survival
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 18, (+6) = 24
Keelia: investigation
chris107: nice start
Smon: It looks as if the most recent prints are 2 large ogres heading south up the stairs - likely the 2 BS saw before.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 1,
Keelia: she will follow
Smon: BS heads north to the T-junction. All is quiet.
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 18, (+6) = 24
Keelia: for investigation to further follow footprints
Smon: At the T junction she sees: to east the tunnel runs ca 10' then opens onto the south side of a chamber's west wall, chamber about 20' e-w. To the west the tunnel runs ca 10' and then opens into the east side of a larger chamber with much wrecked furniture and beer casks, a faint smell of spilled beer, torn drapes on the walls.
Smon: The ogre prints go east.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Keelia: Bright Star will head East
chris107: M waits at the T junction
Smon: BS steps into the east chamber - it's largely empty, but for a ragged bear pelt sleeping rug and a few nails and other spikey bits lying by the rug. It's dry here, no mud on the floor. The chamber is about 30' deep n-s with an archway exit at the n end of the e wall.
Smon: M follows up to the T junction.
Smon: The chamber to west looks like the wrecked remains of a dwarven tavern, a torn tapestry shows a dwarf hero standing over a dying steel bull.
Keelia: Bright Star heads towards the archway exit
Smon: BS heads across the east chamber to the arch. Looking through she sees a narrow antechamber with an arch on east side opening into a final chamber about 20' or so deep, with a pile of ogre-sized sleeping rugs.
Smon: OOC I'm assuming Danor is with Mordred unless James says otherwise.
Keelia: she will creep in carefully
Keelia rolls 1d20+13 and gets: 1, (+13) = 14
Keelia: for stealth
JamesDevil: i am indeed#
Smon: BS creeps east into the sleeping chamber, a pebble skitters away underfoot.
Smon: There is a strong ogre stench here.
Keelia: she huffs quietly to herself about that - she'll need to practice more
Smon: BS sees some crude charcoal writing on the east wall of this last chamber.
chris107:
Smon: It appears to be in Giantish runes, written by an ogre sized hand.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 3,
Keelia: can she read it? (she knows dwarven, but not giantist)
Smon: Can roll investigation DC 20 BS
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 9, (+6) = 15
Keelia: for invest
Smon: Nope
Keelia: darn
Smon: Danor standing with Mordred you can see the wrecked dwarf tavern to west. You recognise the Dying Bull tapestry as depicting the dwarf hero Kagli triumphing over the Bull of Midor, the orc god.
JamesDevil: "Ah, yet another sign of Dwavern superiority"
Smon: Danor can roll History.
JamesDevil rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 1, (+3) = 4
Smon: DC 12
Smon: fail
JamesDevil: -.-
chris107: Mordred silently rolls his eyes behind his visor
JamesDevil: well, that was pathetic
chris107: Can Mordred roll History? He's good at that
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 2,
Smon: DC 22 for Mordred
JamesDevil: we are so going to get ambused -.-
Keelia: Bright Star will go and fetch the others - the writing may be important
chris107 rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 5, (+6) = 11
chris107: Hmmm
chris107: Not much better
Keelia: I was going to suggest you buff him, but a d4 wouldn't have done much
Smon: Mordred does not have a great knowledge of local Altanian dwarf clan history.
chris107:
Smon: BS returns to the others.
chris107: "Let's go look at Brightstar's runes."
JamesDevil: good plan
Smon: You all head east to where BS found the writing. It looks like a crude scrawl in ogrish Giant script.
Smon: Anyone know Giant?
JamesDevil: nope
chris107: Not me
Smon: Even semi-literate ogres are unusual.
chris107: Mordred makes a mental note to self.
Smon: So it would need a comp languages ritual to decipher.
Keelia: isn't giantish not far off from dwarven? can danor try to buff himself and try?
chris107: "Well we can chase these clever Ogres through the tavern or down the spiral steps where the horrid voice is."
Smon: Danor can roll investigation DC 20 same as BS.
chris107: "Oh, I can do that as a ritual."
JamesDevil rolls 1d20 and gets: 16,
chris107: (Mordred forgets he's a wizard sometimes)
JamesDevil: Danor facepalms
chris107: Mordred blushes.
JamesDevil: Guidance on M when he finishes his ritual, so you can add a D4 if needed
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 1,
Keelia: Britght Star says nothing
chris107: M begins his ritual. "Keep watch"
Smon: Very quiet in the dungeon today
Smon: 10 minutes for ritual?
chris107: Yes
Smon: OK, BS and Danor keep watch to west while Mordred casts the ritual.
JamesDevil: pp 14
Smon: 10 minutes later: the writing says: Orthur sad. Want Jubal & Vera get along.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 4,
JamesDevil: well, that was worth 10 mins
chris107: Vera is the Ogress we're looking for?
JamesDevil: yep
Smon: OOC: I'm assuming Sandro & the new dragonborn went outside for a smoke break this week.
Keelia: awww, it's someone's diary
chris107:
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 6,
chris107: Oops

11 (+1) = 12

chris107: They can come get our mangled corpses next week.
Keelia: lol
Smon: You hear a stealthy tread in the west passage and then suddenly a huge green warty TROLL bursts into the chamber!
chris107: "Arrgghh!"
Smon: You hear a high pitched invisible voice from the air: "There they are! Get them!"
Smon: The troll glares at you angrily: "Grrargh!"
chris107: (We got to get that last Quasit. It's a blinking menace!)
JamesDevil: ugh, friggin imps, knew i should ahve cast detect m,agic while we waited

Smon: BS & M can act before the troll attacks.
Keelia: Bright Star raises her weapon and strikes
JamesDevil: are we still using the newer init system?
chris107: If I attack it that allows Keelia a surprise attack?
Smon: will do cyclical after 1st round
chris107: As we are within 5'?
JamesDevil: k
Smon: It's not surprised, obviously. You mean sneak attack?
Smon: She can sneak it either way - ally adjacent or no one adjacent.
Smon: as swashbuckler
chris107: sorry, yes. Sneak attack
chris107: Cool

Keelia: she'll use fancy footwork to retreat with no OA
chris107: Does Mordred know ought of Trolls?
Keelia: it's magical if that helps (lycanthrope bane sword), but probably not
Keelia: they're weak to elements, esp fire and acid
Keelia: i think
Smon: BS dodges back from the troll to the east end of the chamber, by the writing & ogre furs.

Keelia: well done.
Smon: Mordred can have Inspiration
chris107: "Is that little spy still around?"
Smon: M can roll Perception as an action
chris107: (Can he have it twice?)

chris107: (Okay, got you)
Smon: No sign of the invisible demon.
Smon: Danor casts detect magic
Smon: GM: You can have +700 XP each
chris107: Yay!
Keelia: Bright Star is at 15/39 - she needs a potion or short rest
chris107: (That has to take M close to 6th  )
JamesDevil: coolio
chris107: 19/44 rest needed here too
JamesDevil: 4/10 slots left
Keelia: That puts Bright star 3.5k xp from next level
JamesDevil: i could blow them on healing but that leaves no rezes
Keelia: If you'd rather save the spells, I've got 4 hit die left
Keelia: I also have potions
JamesDevil: or other healing till a long rest
chris107: 13,445/14,000
Smon: GM: 5e det magic says only works on the visible, but you can find any magic items within 30' as an action.
Smon: NB your SoF goes down
Keelia: (very nice, chris, so close!)
JamesDevil: yep, concentration
chris107: "Shall we rest in the secret room or outside?"
JamesDevil: 17,965/23000
Keelia: Bright Star hands Danor and Mordred two of her three Potions of Extra Healing. "Save the spells."
JamesDevil: if we are going to rest them hang on to them BS
JamesDevil: secret room i think
chris107: "Thanks, Bright Star."
Keelia: (is that 5d4+5, Simon?)
chris107: "Yeah keep hold."
JamesDevil: we can burn hit die that way and avoid random encounters
chris107: And Mordred needs to stitch that nasty wound.
Smon: 4d4+4 per potion of extra healing
chris107: Short rest then?
Keelia: (I also have 3 super healing, what are those? I have super marked as 4d4+4. Are they the same thing with different names?)
JamesDevil: sounds good
Smon: GM: You head back towards the secret armoury, is Danor using Det Magic as he goes?
JamesDevil: yep
Smon: (yes, old school extra healing is superior healing in 5e)
Keelia: (thanks! then I have an extra 3)
Keelia rolls 4d4+4 and gets: 1, 3, 3, 1, (+4) = 12
chris107: Yay!
Smon: GM: As you reach the T-junction intersection Danor senses strong Dwarf magic from the wrecked tavern to the west.
JamesDevil: does Danor spot anything with detect magic on his way back?
chris107: Oooooo
JamesDevil: "hold up, theres some kind of Dwarven magic this way
JamesDevil: Danor heads in the direction of the tavern
Smon: It seems to be coming from under a shattered ale barrel.
chris107: Mordred's ears prick up at the mention of magic.
JamesDevil: Danor will inspect the shattered barrel
Keelia: Bright Star chugs the potion then follows then to see what Danor is investigating
chris107: M will take advantage of BS' offered potion if that's still okay?
chris107: Then follow.
chris107 rolls 4d4+4 and gets: 3, 3, 4, 4, (+4) = 18
Smon: Danor enters the tavern, clearly dwarves fought ogres here and lost, there is blood on the wall. Two open doors to w & s lead into empty storerooms. Lifting the barrel aside, Danor sees a rune-carved dwarven warhammer - the hammer of Kagli!
Keelia: Yes, I've marked them off my sheet. Both Mordred and Danor should add a 4d4+4 potion to their inventory and do with it what they will
chris107: 37/44HP
JamesDevil:
Keelia: (is it possessed?)
chris107: Nice one James!
Smon: The hammer seems to gleam slightly with dwarven puissance.
chris107: and thanks Keelia
Keelia: (no worries!)
JamesDevil: I'll take it back to the secret room and rit cast identify on it
Smon: Danor remembers the tales, how when Kagli grew old and depaeted for the Undying Forge, he left it to his descendants, with the words that a dwarf strong of heart and neat of beard could draw upon his power to defeat all foes.
Smon: Danor takes the sacred hammer - what is his CHA?
JamesDevil: 9
chris107: (OOC Looks like there's just down the spiral stairs left to do)
Keelia: (neat of beard  )
Smon: OK, he'll need to Attune to it then to use its full power.
JamesDevil: he will do just that
chris107:
Smon: GM: You return to the secret armoury with its Vrilya coats of plate.
chris107: closing the doors and checking we leave no trail.
Smon: You rest for an hour - it must be well after dark outside now - Danor stroking the mighty weapon.
JamesDevil: time to roll some hit die
Smon: After an hour's hidden rest you can roll HD
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 4,

chris107 rolls 1d10+2 and gets: 8, (+2) = 10
chris107: 44/44HP
JamesDevil: 52/53 +5 temp
Smon: Danor attunes to the Hammer of Kagli - +1 hammer, in the hands of a true dwarf (with neat beard) when Attuned it does double damage dice, ie 2d8.
Keelia rolls 1d8+1 and gets: 6, (+1) = 7
JamesDevil: sweet
chris107: verynice indeed!
Keelia rolls 1d8+1 and gets: 1, (+1) = 2
chris107: "Dare we risk the stairs?"
JamesDevil: if we have the slots left let do it
chris107: "Vera and her vile priest are no doubt down there."
Keelia: Bright Star nods.
chris107: "I have no spells left but my cantrips. "
chris107: "But I'm cross now. Let's do it!"
JamesDevil: "you hang back well out of range then and pull back if things get dicy
Keelia: Bright Star nods. "It will be a difficult battle, but worthy.@
chris107: "Evil will not triumph over us."
chris107: M grips the Sword of Destiny closer.
Smon: GM: You jump over the pressure plate in the trap room again & head over to the spiral stairs that descend into darkness.
Keelia: Bright Star will stealth along in the lead
Keelia rolls 1d20+13 and gets: 2, (+13) = 15
Smon: BS will need to go well ahead of M & his glowing sword.
Keelia: (or barely stealth along  )
Smon: brb phone
JamesDevil: still better than Gordak would manage
chris107: Yeah, it will be a fair perception that notices her even with that roll.
Keelia: she should be like a ghost  only sometimes she's a clumsy one.
Smon: back
Keelia: ::sneak sneak::
Smon: BS descends some 40' down the winding stairs to Level 2...
Smon: Eventually she comes out on the west side of a great bleak hall, with vaulted ceiling. Narrow e-w (about 20'), much longer to N & S.
Keelia: She tiptoes in, checking out the ceiling as well as keeping an eye for traps and ogres
JamesDevil: ooc but she is not keeping an eye out for dragons...of which there are 10 in the room
Smon: Opposite her entrance she sees a matching archway with spiral stairs descending down.
Keelia: (dragons != ninjas, thankfully)
Smon: There are many tracks on the muddy floor - could be ogres, trolls, smaller clawed three toe ones that look reptilian...
Keelia: she'll cross the room as quietly as she can and head for the opposite stairs, pausing to look at the footprints
Smon: The hall extends at least 40' to N and 40' to S.
Keelia: kobolds?
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 8, (+6) = 14
Keelia: for investigation
Smon: There appear to be several exits off to E and W at the N & S ends of the hall.
Smon: Too big for kobolds, lizardmen or troglodytes maybe.
Keelia: she pauses at the sight of new exits and retreats back to the others to decide which path to take
Keelia: and to pass along the info about the footprints
chris107: phonr brb
Smon: BS sneaks over to the east arch - definitely spiral stairs going down. She retreats back upstairs.
Smon: & tells the others.
JamesDevil: "Hmm, so more places to go on that level or down further...."
JamesDevil: we should probably clear the whole floor before proceeding down further"
Keelia: (How many exits in total? Did she count?)
chris107: back
chris107: I think we have cleared all the first floor?
chris107: At least according to my map, I'll post it now.
Smon: At least 2 to north, at least 2 to south but the hall widens east-west at south end, could be more out of sight.
Keelia: (we have several exits from this new room - one stair down opposite but 'several' N,S,E,W)
Smon: The north end wall of the hall is curved.
JamesDevil: if that floor is totally clear then we should head down, but this might be a seperate section to the parts we have cleared
Smon: You haven't searched all of level 1, you never went past the wolf pen.
chris107: Oh yes, south past the wolf pens.
chris107: Shall we?
JamesDevil: ok, lets go back past the wolf pens then
Keelia: (you want to double back to wolf pens before this room?)
chris107: (May as well make sure of all level 1 first?)
Keelia: (ok)
JamesDevil: lets do it
Keelia: Bright Star turns and heads back up the stairs to L1 towards the wolf pens
Smon: OOC How long do you want to play to?
JamesDevil: i've got nothing lse planned for today
chris107: I'm free all day
chris107: Kyle working until 4
Smon: I can keep going then.
Smon: Will stop around 11.30am then
Keelia: It's only 7:30pm here, so I'm good
chris107:
chris107: (My yet make level 6!)
Smon: GM: You head back to the chamber just west of the entry chamber, it holds a dead ogre and fire now nearly out. From there you step over the dead wolves and head south down the tunnel, past the wolf pen with broken weak chains.
Smon: The tunnel bends east, sloping gently down.
Smon: It passes a couple wall recesses and heading SE enters a small storeroom.
Smon: This room was used for storage ages ago. A few shattered barrels are all that remain of the stores kept here for sieges and disasters. There is an exit in the SW wall.
Keelia: continue thru the exit
Keelia: with stealth
Keelia rolls 1d20+13 and gets: 18, (+13) = 31
chris107: any sign of secret doors in the recesses?
Keelia: investigation
Smon: The exit tunnel runs SW 15' to a broader side tunnel SE which opens out into a large circular well room, a brick-lipped well in the centre. To the SW the passage enters a small room with tunnel off to NW.
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 16, (+6) = 22
Smon: Mordred sees no secret doors in the recesses.
Smon: What is BS investigating?
Keelia: for secret doors
Smon: Finding things is Perception
Keelia: right
Keelia rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 12, (+8) = 20
Keelia: still not bad
Smon: Putting together connections or figuring how things work could be investigation, occasionally investigation can be used for searching eg to deduce a hidden chest compartment.
Keelia: I always get the two confused
Smon: The recesses seem solid. There are black soot stains, they likely once held braziers or large torches.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 3,
chris107: so well or nw passage?
JamesDevil: Danor will look down the Well
Keelia: Well first to ensure nothing is hiding in it
Smon: The well chamber is domed, with stone ribs/buttresses running up the walls, nice and solid.
JamesDevil rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 6, (+4) = 10
chris107: Mordred stands guard, illuminating the area.
Smon: Danor stomps over to the well and looks down. The 'water' a few feet down suddenly lunges at him!
Smon: The gigantic ooze attacks Danor with surprise...
JamesDevil: !£"$$£!
chris107: "Eek!"
JamesDevil: 22AC
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 8, (+6) = 14
Keelia: for init
Keelia: (when we get there)
Smon: /roll d20+5x2
Smon Rolls 1d20+5x2 and gets:
1 (+5) = 6
8 (+5) = 13
chris107: Phew
Smon: Danor jerks back, droplets of acid hissing on his shield.
JamesDevil: bad ooze
Smon: Danor roll init DC 8
JamesDevil rolls 1d20 and gets: 14,
Smon: Danor can act, the others come in next round
JamesDevil: does Danor see any metal in the ooze?
Smon: The transparent ooze rears up...
chris107: Cool, Do you need an init roll from M?
Smon: no
JamesDevil: k
Smon: M can roll if you like DC 8 but the creature gets one more go before M & BS can get into room & attack it
Smon: Danor your go
chris107: got you.
chris107 rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 6, (+3) = 9
JamesDevil: Danor pulls out a copper coin and flips it into the ooze
Smon: The coin hisses as it strikes the ooze and begins to disintegrate!
JamesDevil: does that count as an acction or bonus action?
Smon: action
JamesDevil: ok, Danor moves back as far as he can and casts SoF
Smon: The ooze lunges at Danor AC 22 I believe (opp att)
Smon: /roll d20+5
Smon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 13, (+5) = 18
JamesDevil: 24 now because of SoF
JamesDevil: meh, eitherway misses
Smon: (you worded it move first then cast) Danor skips back and casts SoF yet again...
JamesDevil: fair enough
Smon: Danor gets back into the corridor. The ooze subsides back into the well, out of sight.
Smon: Your goes, M & BS & D
chris107: "Ewww. What was that horrid thing?"
Keelia: Bright Star looks at the others, then starts to creep around the side of the room as far from the well as possible towards the other door
chris107: Can M get a firebolt off as it goes?
JamesDevil: an Ooze, if it hasn't disolved the ocin i can heat metal it from the inside out
Keelia: "Ooze," she shudders as she scoots along the wall
chris107: (Did I miss a door? I don't have one in the well room.)
Smon: BS moves into the well room and around the wall. It has no other exits.
Smon: The brick wall around the lip of the well shields the ooze from view.
Keelia: (I misread: To the SW the passage enters a small room with tunnel off to NW)
chris107: map update posted
Keelia: she'll use fancy footwork to dart in, attack, and retreat with no OA to try to draw it out
chris107: M stands back 30' ready with flamebolt
Smon: SW from the intersection (where SE goes into well room) is a small room, NW from that a 10x10 space opens into a smelly ogre lair.
JamesDevil: Danor readies Heat metal for the coin inside the ooze
chris107: Thanks Simon
Smon: BS darts in to the lip of the well - the ooze uses its Readied Action to attack her, lunging up, D & M can uses their Readied actions as it lunges up at her too!
Keelia: Bright Star moves in, bow drawn.
Keelia rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 15, (+7) = 22
Smon: >>she'll use fancy footwork to dart in, attack, and retreat with no OA<<
chris107 rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 12, (+6) = 18
Smon: Ooze readied attack as BS reaches lip of well:
Smon: /roll d20+5
chris107: 18 with Fiebolt
Smon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 14, (+5) = 19
Keelia: AC 16
Keelia: ouch.
JamesDevil: heat metal on the coin inside the ooze
Smon: The coin is gone - the ooze can dissolve 1" of metal per round.
JamesDevil: it needs to make a DC15 dex save or take 3d8 (casting at level 3 due to lack on lv2 slots
JamesDevil: eh? but copper is resistant to acid!
Smon: sorry 2"
Smon: LOL
JamesDevil: bah, waste of a slot
JamesDevil: ffs
Smon: I guess it only dissolved 1" then
Smon: The ooze grabs BS, burning her.
Smon: /roll 5d8+3
Smon rolls 5d8+3 and gets: 5, 3, 7, 7, 5, (+3) = 30
chris107: Ouchers!
Smon: 30 dmg, can use her Rogue reaction to half dmg?
Keelia: bollocks. Uncanny Dodge?
Smon: yup, 15 dmg
JamesDevil: literally copper dragons are acid based -.-
Keelia: not AS bad
Smon: BS was slashing it w scimitar?
Keelia: so, after taking off the 5hp from aid, only 10 damage.
Keelia: No, bow and arrow.
Smon: ok, shooting in melee has disadvantage
Keelia: Not risking my swords.
Keelia: ok, so first was 22
Keelia rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 12, (+7) = 19
Keelia: second is 19 to hit
Smon: BS shoots an arrpw into it, Mordred burns it w fire bolt
Smon: AC 7
chris107 rolls 2d10 and gets: 5, 10, = 15
Keelia rolls 4d6+4 and gets: 1, 4, 3, 2, (+4) = 14
chris107:
Keelia: I'm easily amused over 1+2+3+4
Smon: 29 dmg. BS pulls away from it w fancy footwork - like sliding through treacle - and away as it subsides again out of your sight.
Smon: The ooze obviously doesn't want to leave the protection(?) of the well, but will attack you when you get close.
JamesDevil: Danor will step in next to draw it out again when the other 2 are ready
Keelia: She hesitantly brushes the burns on her fur
JamesDevil: still 24 AC
Smon: What armour did BS have on?
JamesDevil: holding after to SF it
Keelia: studded leather
chris107: ready
Smon: Half the studded leather has corroded away to mulch, it's now just leather +1 AC, you lose 1 pt of AC.
JamesDevil: I'll fix that for you when we next long rest
Keelia: Damn.
Smon: You all ready (BS arrow, M firebolt) then Danor steps up to the plate... the well...
Keelia: (thanks!0
chris107: M prepares another FB
Smon: The ooze lunges out mindlessly at D.
Smon: /roll d20+5
Smon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 13, (+5) = 18
JamesDevil: miss
chris107: yay
Keelia rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 7, (+7) = 14
JamesDevil: and SF dex save of 15 plz
Smon: Danor's enchantments protect him & his precious gear
chris107 rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 6, (+6) = 12
Smon: /roll d20-3
Smon rolls 1d20-3 and gets: 11, (-3) = 8
Smon: 8 on DEX save
Smon: M zaps it
chris107 rolls 2d10 and gets: 2, 7, = 9
JamesDevil rolls 2d8 and gets: 4, 5, = 9
Keelia: nice!
Smon: D sacs it?
Smon: BS shoots it
chris107:
Keelia: is it dead? or should i roll dmg?
Smon: need bs arrow dmg w sneak
Smon: has lotsa hp
Keelia rolls 4d6+4 and gets: 3, 6, 6, 6, (+4) = 25
chris107: nice!
Keelia: Bright Star is not best pleased over the state of her armour
Smon: BS arrow disrupts the membrane, but it's still going.
chris107: Mordred comiserates with her
Smon: It attacks Danor
Smon: /roll d20+5
Smon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 16, (+5) = 21
chris107: ooooo
JamesDevil: miss
Keelia rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 10, (+7) = 17
chris107: yay!
Smon: Any normal PC would be acidised
Smon: your goes
Keelia rolls 4d6+4 and gets: 2, 5, 5, 6, (+4) = 22
JamesDevil: same again, dex save plz
chris107 rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 9, (+6) = 15
Smon: /roll d20-3
Smon rolls 1d20-3 and gets: 12, (-3) = 9
chris107 rolls 2d10 and gets: 5, 10, = 15
JamesDevil rolls 2d8 and gets: 4, 2, = 6
Smon: The hideous ooze is blasted shot and burned until it flies apart in little driplets, many burning brightly.
Keelia: Bright Star peers over. "Is it still alive?"
Smon: Eventually it seems to be dead.
chris107: "Ugghhhhhhh!"
JamesDevil: ok, Danor will try to look down the well again, anything else in there?
Smon: You have defeated the horrible ooze. Take +400 XP.
Keelia: She nods at Mordred. "Bright Star agrees with you."
chris107: Mordred keeps to his position to keep an eye out in each direction.
Smon: Most of the remains of the transparent ooze are still in the stone well.
Keelia: yay!
JamesDevil: ok,lets move on
Smon: There is probably water deep down below the ooze level. It's hard to see even with darkvision but the well shaft looks deep, probably descending at least 40'.
Keelia: "What a waste," Bright Star grumbles, turning away from the lack of shiny objects hidden in the well.
chris107: Up into smelly ogre room?
Smon: This little bit of the dungeon ends in the ogre lair (SW then NW), a decent sized chamber with furs for a half dozen ogres, and open chests holding much loot, as well as a barrel of dwarf parts, a few barrels of fresh water, a keg of beer, 24 sheep skins, and a pile of lumber for firewood.
Keelia: Barrel of dwarf parts? As in body parts? Like pieces of dwarf?
Smon: Most of the huge piles of coin are copper, but also good numbers of gold, and a few smallish rubies and emeralds amidst the coins.
Smon: yes
Keelia: Bright Star gravitates towards the shiny gems
chris107: M is happy to stand guard while the good stuff is sorted?
JamesDevil: Danor will help with the xsorting
Smon: Searching through the coins, BS picks out 4 gems, total value 1000gp (avg 250 each).
Keelia: Her mood is much improved with the obtaining of shinies
Smon: It'll take an hour to sort the gold from the copper if you wish.
chris107:
Smon: There are over 10,000 coins, about 200lb in weight.
chris107: Okay with me
JamesDevil: I'm mat myn max carry weight
chris107: me too
Keelia: Bright Star can carry just a little more. She isn't carrying any armour, just the gold from before.
chris107: But we have Sherpas Bill and Fergus only a few feet away
Keelia: But she's content with the shinies, so is happy to ignore the rest if there is no way to carry it
Smon: Around 8.30pm you finish sorting the coin - 1000gp (weight 20 lb) and 10000 cp (weight 200lb).
chris107: Maybe time to haul it back to Selatine?
chris107: We have a lot of treasure and are almost out of spells..
JamesDevil: yea, i need to sort out my new armour and fix BSs too anyay
JamesDevil: anyway*
Keelia: Bright Star grabs the gold and lugs it along.
chris107: M will stand rear guard until all are out safely.
Smon: You'll not get back to Selatine tonight; you could make St Ulther's Lighthouse where the amazons stand guard - about 5 miles away, about 3 hours currently with all the loot.
Keelia: Sounds good!
chris107: That works for me..
Smon: 2 hours if you leave the copper and non magical armour suits.
JamesDevil: works for me
chris107: (Mordred has one none magical suite)
Keelia: (leaving copper, just taking gold)
JamesDevil: can we take a long rest there then? i need to decurse then modify my armour for a dwarf sized person and fix BSs
chris107: And also make sure the secret doors are shut and an effort made to clean tracks
Smon: You gather up the ancient gold coins, stamped with the crown of ancient Nerath. The most recent bear the image of Good King Elidyr.
Smon: Yes you can LR at the Lighthouse Inn. OK you leave the copper & suits of Vrilya plate armour, secure the secret trophy/armoury, and head back east through the night.
Smon: 6 = night encounter...
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Keelia: (they group probably smells too bad for anything to want to attack them  )
chris107: (@DM - Mordred has his suit of Vrilya Plate with him?)
JamesDevil: so i need to leave the magical set i have too?
Smon: You hear giant Ghinarian hyenas cackling in the distance as they devour a fallen Mastodon, but nothing menaces you as you return to the Lighthouse, the Amazon guards allowing entry.
chris107: Final map posted.
Smon: no you can bring the stuff you already had.
chris107: cool
JamesDevil: k
Smon: Amazon Saera: "In the morning Captain Clenderi will take your report."
Smon: "For now, you are welcome to stay at our Inn."
Keelia: Bright Star thanks her
JamesDevil: good, i need sleep
chris107: (This would be a good place to long rest if they will have us?)
chris107: "Thank you."
Keelia: (agreed)
Smon: GM: You rest overnight in the Lighthouse Inn - once an orc barracks for Oriax's foul beasts, now repurposed to a spartan but comfortable inn.
JamesDevil: brb, bio
Keelia: Bright Star makes use of any bathing facilities to wash the burned fur from the ooze
Smon: GM: In the morning Amazon Captain Clenderi takes a break from nursing her son by Prince Sandor, the great hero of the Black Sun War, to take your report of goings-on.
chris107: Mordred wants to spruce up too.
chris107: We tell them of the fearsome Vera and her cohorts.
Smon: You can all get thoroughly cleaned up, taking turns in the Inn bath tub
chris107: At Erdia Manor ruins and the dungeons below.
JamesDevil: back
Smon: Clenderi & 3 other amazon warriors listen with interest.
chris107: And our intention to rid the area of the menace.
Smon: Clenderi: "You are welcome to base yourselves here while you campaign against these monsters. We have not seen any dwarves recently, they must have gone west to Kalmisj."
chris107: "Do you have any little sacks of flour by the way? They have a wretched Quasit dogging our every move."
Smon: Clenderi: "I'll see that Hippolyta provides you all the flour you require."
Keelia: Bright Star thanks her for the offer. "Would Bright Star's companion be able to use your forge? The Ooze destroyed Bright Star's armour and friend Danor found some armour to resize for himself."
Smon: Clenderi nods. "Of course."
Keelia: "Bright Star is most grateful."
Smon: The Tower has a good sized smithy, larger than the 12 amazons stationed here really need.
chris107: "Thanks, perhaps if there is time Danor could look at resizing my armour too?"
JamesDevil: Danor nods and heads over to the forge
JamesDevil: send anyone my way that needs armour or weapons, its good for me to keep in practice
Smon: Danor can use it over the next week to rework the suits of armour - fashioned of Lagh, a strange alloy infused with tiny amounts of Vaedium, the raw stuff of magic, they rework easily in his hands.
Keelia: (don't forget, you need to attune to that weapon if you want to use it - now would be a good time  )
Smon: By the end of the week both suits can be resized to fit.
chris107: Thanks!
JamesDevil: Danor will fix Bss armour first, then attune to the hammer, then decurese and mod the magic armour
JamesDevil: coolio
Keelia: (and Bright Star's armour can be fixed to be +2 again?)
JamesDevil: can we sell off other stuff here, i won't need my old armour
Smon: GM: OK you long rest up here, Danor working happily in his element, the buxom amazon smith looks very impressed by his skill.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 2,
chris107: Mordred asks if he can store his old armour here until he can arrange for it's transport to his villa in Selatine?
Smon: You can sell stuff for up to 200gp to passing traders heading up to Selatine; no major merchants pass through.
Smon: Clenderi: "Sir Mordred, I would be happy to have Saera deliver your armour to Selatine with any report to Lady Vex you wish to make."
JamesDevil: whats the sell price? 50% of the normal cost per item?
chris107: "Your kindness does you credit. Thank you."
chris107: "Perhaps along with this gold? My poor housekeeper must be right out of vim by now."
Smon: Mundane items typically sell at 20% but depends what it is. Treasure uses listed values.
Smon: max 200gp/item
JamesDevil: plate armour (sized for a dwarf and a warhammer
Smon: Can sell your old armour for 200gp here.
chris107: (Any exploration or treasure XP to come this week?)
JamesDevil: cool, warhammers normally cost 15gp
JamesDevil: so about 3gp if its 20%?
Smon: yes. Although you could take a few weeks to visit Ahyf, catch up on the timeline, and sell gear at 50%, so 750gp for plate armour.
Smon: Since you spent a month of real time in the dungeon - benefit of not taking a long rest for awhile
JamesDevil: awesome! so 750gp + 7gp 50sp then
chris107: (Could Jam's stuff be taken to Selatine with mine?)
Smon: yup
Smon: If we move forward a month you could easily visit Selatine in the interim
chris107: Then we are all heading to Ahyf?
chris107: Super.
chris107: Drop our stuff off at Selatine along the way.
JamesDevil: 22 AC before the forge divity buff, then 23 AC and topping out at 25 AC with buff + SoF
Smon: GM: I'll stop there & resume after long-long rest. Are you planning to return to Erdea manor?
chris107: Very nice!
chris107: I'd like to go finish off Vera
JamesDevil: me too
chris107: And am only 155XP away from 6th
Smon: OOC I think I mentioned the Vrilya armour when fitted to you has no stealth disad and weighs half what regular plate weighs.
chris107: yup
Keelia: I'm happy to go back and finish the fight after the long rest
JamesDevil: sweet, didn't know abouyt the weight
Keelia: we did promise
Smon: ok good
chris107: A very good session
Keelia: indeed, an excellent session!
Keelia: thanks, Simon!
JamesDevil: very nice session, well done all
Smon: Actually 3 weeks looks like - you were adventuring on 12/5, next session will be 31/5.
Smon: thx all, now next Saturday I am away I just realised so next game in 2 weeks
Smon: 2/6/18. will make it 2/6/48 in-game actually
Keelia: thanks for letting us know - I'll update my calendar. Have a good break 
chris107: June 9th?
Smon: Have +50 final XP
Smon: Sorry yes!
Smon: June 9th is in 2 weeks
chris107: Arrgghh under 100 XP needed!
JamesDevil: good to know, thanks
Keelia: great, thanks!
Smon: I get confused :\
Smon: Well you can level up after next SR.
Smon: We can say you have spell book ready to level M.

chris107: beyond 9 rather
chris107: 9 is wolf pens.
Smon: yes
Keelia: ok, so which way are we headed?
Smon: You are currently hanging around listening to sounds of ogres waking up and getting ready to attack you.
chris107: Do you want to do a kitty sneak run down past 9 see what is there?
JamesDevil: that seems like a plan
Keelia: As long as you are prepared for me to bring something back in a hurry
JamesDevil: I'll stay here and keep my clanking to a minimum
Keelia: Bright Star will put her sneak on
DESTROYERBILL: i have a new charecter
chris107: Ogre sounds coming from which direction?
Smon: Smon: The gas is now thick enough you can see a whitish miasma forming below you and rolling out into the west tunnel. Keelia: Bright Star shifts so she is behind mordred, bow drawn Smon: You can hear ogres yelling in the distance. Smon: The whistling sound begins to fade. Keelia: Bright Star wets a piece of cloth and ties it across her nose and mouth Sandor Sunneson: Kettles boiled! Smon: The ogres don't seem to be coming towards you. Keelia: (tea's up! ) Smon: anyone have Medicine skill to check Danor? chris107: “Let’s let them settle. At least until our Dwarf wakes?” Keelia: not trained but I have +2 Smon: can't tell how long he'll be out if untrained JamesDevil: ooc I would like to medicine check myself while I am asleep >.> Smon: Smon: The whistling ends. Keelia: I have a potion that can put him back to sleep but nothing to wake him up Smon: The pale miasma begins to dissipate. Smon: You are staying at the top of the stairs? JamesDevil: ooc i doubt the cure for sleep is more sleep Sandor Sunneson: Might be a good place to continue next time?? JamesDevil: as much as i wish that was true in real life..... Keelia: Bright Star will sneak down after signalling Mordred to stay on guard. chris107: My vote would be yes, until Danor wakes
Keelia rolls 1d20+13 and gets: 17, (+13) = 30
Smon: Danor is asleep
chris107: Oh dear. I forgot our meat shi...erm Dwarven friend is sleeping.
chris107: "Perhaps we should get Danor to the surface?"
Keelia: Try poking him. In the meanwhile, Bright Star will creep (30 to stealth) to check if anyone is around any of the nearby corners
Smon: Bright Star sneaks down the stairs into the gas room.
Smon: Roll Perception BS
chris107: Mordred leaves the dwarf poking to Sandro. He stands guard.
Keelia rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 5, (+8) = 13

Sandor Sunneson: Sandro shakes him gently to try and wake him up
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 6,
Smon: Danor seems fast asleep.
chris107: oops
Smon: BS steps over the gas trap & reaches the western corridor.
Keelia: (I still have a potion of speed, we could dose him and see if that wakes him quicker, when BS is back?)
chris107: (Worth a try if we get into deep water)
Keelia: She'll continue to sneak forward
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will put the dwarf into the recovery position, to make sure his airway stays clear
chris107: Mordred listens and watches for all he's worth.
chris107: Keeping the light from his sword to a bare minimum to see by.
Smon: Looking north down the corridor BS sees stairs going down, the corridor continuing beyond. Two ogres are heading towards her up the stairs.
Keelia: (I also have a potion which is either enlargement or diminution, so he may become small enough to easily move or far too large, but it's an option)
chris107: (Excellent)
Keelia: Bright Star will turn and stealth back to report to the others of the approaching pair
chris107: "If we can lessen their forces taking out small bands like this it can only help our cause. But without Danor we may all bleed a lot more."
Smon: Looking south BS sees that after 20' there is a door in the east wall and an arch in the west wall, the corridor continuing another 20' to open into a large chamber. A huge and hideous ogre in Shamanic robes steps into view, looking at BS despite her stealthiness.
Sandor Sunneson: true
Smon: BS roll init
Smon: /roll d20
Smon rolls 1d20 and gets: 19,
Keelia: (damn, what is a 30 to stealth even worth :D)

Smon: The invisible demon familiars who were hovering above BS telling the Shaman her location attack her as he casts a spell & warns the other two ogres...

Keelia rolls 1d20+1 and gets: 9, (+1) = 10

Smon: The Shaman casts Bestow Curse on BS, roll DC 13 CHA save with disadvantage
chris107: (Lookig at the map we are in a vulnerable position and could be easily trapped. Mordred suggests a strategic withdrawl)
Keelia: Fancy Footwork for an attack and retreat without opp atk then follow up with kitty retreat?
chris107: (Back as far as 6 at least, avoiding the trap)
Smon: The Shaman casts Bestow Curse on BS, roll DC 13 CHA save with disadvantage
7:54am  2018-5-19 Sandor Sunneson Has exited the room
Keelia: (is that with or without prof?)
Keelia Rolls 1d20+2x2 and gets:
14 (+2) = 16
19 (+2) = 21
chris107: "Sandro, help me drag Danor back to the entrance. Watch out for that trap. BRIGHTSTAR! TO US!"
Keelia: (I rolled without prof, so I'm safe either way)
Smon: You save, resisting the foul curse.
chris107: (Nice rolls)
Keelia: (Lucky dice today, thankfully  )
chris107:
Keelia: (was my previous plan acceptable? or does kitty retreat take the bonus action?)
Smon: The other two ogres head up the stairs to where two small leathery-winged demons are attacking BS. About 15' away. BS your go
Smon: There are two quasit demons above you BS, fancy footwork would let you attack one & move with only the second one getting an opp att.
Keelia: Bright Star will lash out with her blade at one of them, retreat with only 1 OA, then feline agility her way back at 2x speed to warn the others
Keelia rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 10, (+8) = 18
Smon: BS slashes out at one - hit, no sneak
Keelia rolls 1d6+5 and gets: 1, (+5) = 6

Smon: Is it a magic weapon?
Keelia: (and hopefully not take any more damage)
Keelia: yes +1 lycanthrope bane sword (scimitar which is house ruled for finesse, according to my sheet)
Smon: ok full dmg, it splashes green ichor
Smon: BS flees - quasit opp att
Smon: /roll d20+4
Smon rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 5, (+4) = 9

Keelia: (phew!)
Keelia rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 19, (+7) = 26
chris107: hehe
Keelia: yeah, she flies over it gracefully, as if she was wearing rockets
Smon: BS leaps over the trap plate and flees across the room back up the stairs to Mordred & Sandro.
Smon: GM: Are you all leaving or waiting here?
Keelia: she calls out a warning of their approaching enemies as soon as she's in sight
chris107: "We need to retreat."
8:03am  2018-5-19 Sandor Sunneson Has entered the room
Sandor Sunneson: sorry about that, laptop went all funny
Keelia: She pours a potion of speed down Danor's throat
Smon: The Shaman casts Bestow Curse on BS, roll DC 13 CHA save with disadvantage
chris107: Backto the top of the steps
Keelia: (probably while the others are dragging him)
Keelia: again?
Smon: sorry ignore that
Smon: wrong copy paste!
Keelia: no worries
chris107: Mordred will stand rearguard if BS and Sandro can get Danor out.
Sandor Sunneson: Ok, sounds good
Smon: GM: You drag Danor towards the stairs. BS gives him a potion of speed - Danor roll DC 15 poison save w advtg
JamesDevil Rolls 1d20+2x2 and gets:
4 (+2) = 6
16 (+2) = 18
Smon: The jolt of caffeine in the speed potion wakes up Danor!
Keelia: "Get up, friend. We have many enemies incoming!"
chris107:
JamesDevil: "huh? what? whats going on?"
JamesDevil: stand and fight or flee?
chris107: @ DM are the secret doors to 7 closed?)
Sandor Sunneson: wahey
chris107: "We ned a choke point to fight them."
Smon: GM: You are currently in room #6 with the broad stairs up to the surface.
JamesDevil: where can we choke point them?
Smon: Suddenly a mysterious figure appears at the top of the stairs!
chris107: The door beween 8&6 would be good if the secret doors are shut
Smon: GM: Bill's new pc
Keelia: "Shaman, 2 quasits, 2 other ogres. And something in front of us," Bright Star rattles off.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro gets ready to combat
chris107: "Who is that mysterious figure?!"
JamesDevil: should i roll init?
DESTROYERBILL: a tall blackened figure emirges with a humungus hammer and a glare of bloodlust in his eye talaktakan the angel of death
chris107: "Eek!"
JamesDevil: its an enemy, kill it
8:09am  2018-5-19 SugarShark Has entered the room
Sandor Sunneson: Who are we going for first?
Keelia: "Bright Star doesn't know. Move aside, stranger, or become our opponent."
chris107: Hi Sugar Shark
JamesDevil: get the imps, they are messibng up BS
chris107: @ DM, are the secret doors closed?
Smon: GM: The mysterious figure is a black dragonborn.
SugarShark: (hi)
Smon: AFAIK you haven't closed the secret doors.
chris107: "Then back to the steps to the surface, we do not want to get cut off!"
chris107: (Or one of us couldtry shutting the secret doors before the masses arrive?)
Keelia: Bright Star will engage kitty speed again and double back to try to close the secret doors
JamesDevil: go for the door
chris107: Cool.
chris107: Then we try hold the door between 6&8?
Smon: GM: BS goes back into 8 and closes the secret door there. Mordred can close the door in #6.
Smon: The ogre noises seem to have stopped.

JamesDevil: "Something is watching us..."
Keelia: Bright Star returns to the others after having closed the secret door. "Invisible demons - quasits - were working with the shaman. Could be them."
JamesDevil: anyone got detect magic?
DESTROYERBILL: i poison spray in a circle arouned me
JamesDevil: thats not the way poison spray works...
Smon: The black dragonborn starts puffing poison around him, air freshener style.
Keelia: "Is that one with us or against us?" she jabs her thumb at the random dragonborn spouting acid.
JamesDevil: "not sure, if it isn't I can blow a spell slot and mess it up though"
Keelia:  (air freshener style, that's a mental picture!)
DESTROYERBILL: its a cantrip i dont literraly form a circle i spray in a circle so no invisble creatures kill me
JamesDevil: ok
Smon: Every 6 seconds he casts a tiny puff of poison in the air around him.
JamesDevil: "Oi scaly bastard, are you friend or foe?"
DESTROYERBILL: a freind
JamesDevil: "ok, we have a bunch of ogres to clear out, wanna lend a hand?"
Smon: /roll 2d6
Smon rolls 2d6 and gets: 5, 5, = 10
Keelia: Bright Star looks at the others, then shrugs. They've had a lot of experience with random dragonborns popping in to help, so she'll go with it.
DESTROYERBILL: okay
JamesDevil: "whats your name?"
chris107: Mordred holds the door to 8 slightly ajar looking through.
DESTROYERBILL: talaktakan
Sandor Sunneson: I'll call you T Sandro says
Sandor Sunneson: as in the drink
Sandor Sunneson: and letter
chris107:
Keelia: Bright Star grins at Sandro
DESTROYERBILL: my titel is the angel of death forged by the many i have slain
JamesDevil: I'm Danor, thats BS
Keelia: "Prepare yourselves. Two quasits, a shaman with a fondness for curses, and two ogres."
JamesDevil: "riiiiiiiiiight"
Smon: Danor calls Bright Star BS?
Keelia: "Bright Star," she corrects Danor.
Smon:
DESTROYERBILL: with my hammer blood drinker
JamesDevil: soz, was faster to right BS
Smon: About 15 minutes has passed, the ogres don't seem to be coming up after you.
JamesDevil: "right, lets take the fight to them"
chris107: "Do you still feel as if you're being watched, Danor?"
JamesDevil rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 6, (+4) = 10
Smon: Can roll again
JamesDevil: "nope"
Sandor Sunneson: probably not lol
JamesDevil: "not as far as i can tell
JamesDevil rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 7, (+4) = 11
chris107: "Also once we pass the gas trap we risk been surounded."
Smon: He can't tell.
Keelia rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 5, (+8) = 13
chris107: "Those steps to the west from the wolf pens link up to the long north-south corridor."
Keelia: Bright Star gets her sneak on
Keelia rolls 1d20+13 and gets: 13, (+13) = 26
Keelia: she'll creep forward to go investigate, all senses on high alert
Smon: Are you going 6 to 8 to 14 and into corridor?
chris107: "Looks like the Ogre hunt is on."
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro gets ready to follow
chris107: I'd suggest 6-8-15?
chris107: Mix it up a bit and avoid the gas trap.
Keelia: yes, she'll move from 6 into 8, carefully check it,
JamesDevil: sounds good to me, i'll hang back in visual range of the others and wait for them to signal me to follow
Smon: BS sneaks ahead of the others 6-8-14, leaping the trap.
Smon: Reaching the corridor she finds it now empty of ogres.
chris107: 6-8-15 for the rest of us please Simon.
Keelia: She looks both ways then goes to report back.
chris107: We are not so nimble as our feline friend.
Smon: BS returns to the others in #8
Keelia: She'll meet them at 8, then head towards 9, popping into 15
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will follow
Smon: From 8 BS goes down the corridor and opens the door in the west wall, she sees stairs going down into a chamber with doors in west & south wall.
Keelia: She'll check around for traps
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 16, (+6) = 22
Keelia: for investigation
chris107: (T, D & M waiting in 8?)
Smon: #15. A collection of furniture has been piled up against the western door which opens into this room. Anyone pushing through from the west side will need to push the pile of furniture out of the way using the door, while those wanting to open it from inside the room will have to move the furniture first. In the middle of the room there is a small pile of burned debris from a fairly recent camp fire.
Smon: Sandro is behind BS. Rest of you in #8 unless you say otherwise.
Smon: BS sees no traps in #15.
Sandor Sunneson: Ogre camp?
Keelia: Bright Star will go and check out the unblocked door first
Keelia: She nods at Sandro, "likely."
Smon: BS sneaks down into the room and checks the south door - no traps.
Keelia: She doubles back to wave the others forward to the room
DESTROYERBILL: i go
chris107: Mordred creeps forward, letting his sword provide illumination.
JamesDevil: Danor moves up
Smon: GM: You all head down into #15. Are you opening the south door?
chris107: M is still nervous about been trapped.
Keelia: Bright Star will creep back forward and carefully open the door
Smon: The door opens. The small room to the south looks like it was being used by the dwarves to store supplies and has been thoroughly ransacked, with wrecked barrels and crates littering the floor and only a couple of pickaxes left.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will put his ear to it seeing if he hears nosise comin from behind
Sandor Sunneson: maybe not
Keelia: (Do that for the other door. We need to be careful of moving the furniture)
chris107: "So the Dwarves barricaded the west door agin the Ogres maybe?"
Keelia: Or the wolves
chris107: "Maybe we should leave it that way?"
chris107: "Keeps our backs a bit safer."
Smon: It will take a couple minutes to move the furniture. The dragonborn looks very strong and could do it quickly.
Keelia: Bright Star glances over at Mordred. "It is this way or over the trap in the other room. Which is your preference"
JamesDevil: This way
chris107: "You make a good point. Lets move the furniture."
DESTROYERBILL: i start moving the furnature
Keelia: "Try to make as little noise as possible," Bright Star suggests.
chris107: Mordred moves back to the top of the steps to keep watch
Smon: The dragonborn easily picks up a massive wardrobe and moves it aside, followed by a battered desk and mahogany table.
Smon: The way they were stacked one atop another, no dwarf could readily do that - more likely ogres.
Smon: Talaxakan finishes moving the furniture.
Smon: You open the west door?
Keelia: Bright Star motions for Sandro to listen at the door
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro listens
Sandor Sunneson rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 11, (+5) = 16
Smon: All is quiet.
chris107: Mordred keeps watch from thetop of the steps for now.
8:42am  2018-5-19 SugarShark Has exited the room
Keelia: Bright Star motions for the others to be ready then she opens the door
Smon: BS pulls the heavy oak door open.
Smon: Looking west into the n-s corridor beyond, she sees through an archway a landing area opposite. Beyond the landing are stone stairs going downwards.
Keelia: "Appears clear," she says and creeps into the hall.
Sandor Sunneson: down another level
Smon: The landing is small but with an alcove in the n wall, suitable as a sentry post. The stairway turns north as it descends out of sight.
chris107: Mordred follows on, keeping one eye on our rear.
Keelia: She glances both ways, then heads north.
DESTROYERBILL: i suddenly put my hand over bright stars head
Smon: BS steps into the corridor. To the south the tunnel opens out at the place where the ogre shaman appears.
Smon: @Keelia north down the tunnel?
DESTROYERBILL: scratch that previous thing
Keelia: If BS saw the shaman, then she'd go that way
Smon: No sign of the shaman or other ogres.
Keelia: "Shaman was south, head that way, or North?"
Keelia: "North goes down and down is always interesting."
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d4 and gets: 1,

DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 16, (+4) = 20
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will check for tracks

chris107: "Should we check to see if the Shaman is still home first?"
DESTROYERBILL: theres still somithig above bright star
Smon: Tal steps towards BS sensing there is something above her
Smon: Sandro senses it too
Keelia: Bright Star looks up, eyes squinting as she peers into shadows
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will fire darts in its direction
Smon: Nothing visible there.
Sandor Sunneson: using the bandoleer
Keelia rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 14, (+8) = 22
chris107: Mordred turns up the light.
Smon: You all feel uneasy, but nothing visible.
Sandor Sunneson: He'll shout show yourself invisible thing,
Keelia: IF she can't see anything, and it hasn't attacked her yet, she'll consider i
Smon: Mordred joins the others in the corridor.
Smon: Sandro roll a CHA check
Keelia: Bright Star frowns and stalks south as per Mordred's suggestion to check if the ogre shaman is still there.
Sandor Sunneson rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 17, (+3) = 20
Sandor Sunneson: Yeah
Keelia: (nice roll!)
Smon: You hear evil high pitched cackling from above BS.
chris107: Mordred pulls Berta from his sleave and sends it to flap around BS' head
Sandor Sunneson: (Thank the computer generated number determinator)
Keelia: Her ears fold back and her tail fluffs up, agitatedly. "What goes there?:
Smon: Berta flaps around above BS.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 6,

Smon rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 20, (+3) = 23

Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 15, (+6) = 21
JamesDevil rolls 1d20 and gets: 12,

Smon: AC 13 - hit
Smon: roll dmg
chris107: phew
chris107 rolls 2d10 and gets: 8, 9, = 17
Smon:
Smon: Fire resistance, 17/2 = 8 hp... it had 7 hp. With a despairing shriek it falls dead beside BS.
Keelia: nice job!
chris107: "Well done Berta! Zagaar would be proud of you!"
Keelia: Bright Star kicks it away from her, with a frown.
Smon: The ugly little winged corpse is about 2' tall. It starts to melt into green goo.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will stand back
Sandor Sunneson: Will Mordred put his face into Chris like Ursa did with that deadly pool?
Keelia: "There is another one still. And the shaman may have been able to watch us and knows we are coming again."
DESTROYERBILL: i spray the corpse with acid splash
Smon: It melts faster.
chris107: "Aye, we must keep a weather eye out for the other beastie."
Smon: The tunnel south ends at the east end of the north wall of a large vaulted chamber with 3 sections.
The room is divided into three segments – an eastern antechamber lined with benches built into the walls, an empty main room with stairs up to the south, and faded murals of human holy days; and a western “alcove” which contains a carved stone pulpit that currently has an open book on it and a massive and ornate iron lantern.
Keelia: Bright Star waves her hand towards the book, looking at Mordred for advice
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will go and inspect the book
Keelia: She'll look around for the other quasit.
Smon: Sandro crosses the vaulted chamber, past the stairs up to the south, and reaches the alcove with the open book on it.
chris107: Mordred follows the monk.
chris107: Wary of attack.
Smon: M follows. BS looks around, no sign of the other invisible demon.
chris107: Protecting his friend from arial attack
JamesDevil: Danor follows as well
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will read the open pages of the book
Smon: The book is written in some kind of mind-bending demonic script.
Smon: Sandro roll a DC 10 WIS save.
Sandor Sunneson: Does it appear to be omitting an aura?
Smon: emitting
Sandor Sunneson rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 14, (+4) = 18
Smon: It's just sitting there.
Smon: The writing is in Abyssal. You'd need comprehend languages or read magic or read Abyssal to make sense of it.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will ask the others if he should close the book as it seems to be written in a demonic script he is not familiar with
chris107: Mordred can comprehend languages as a ritual?
Keelia: Bright Star considers. "It may be safer not to touch it."
chris107: But is keen to avoid such a wicked tome.
Sandor Sunneson: Ok, Sandro will step back from the it
Smon: GM: You congregate & chat.
chris107: "Close the horrid thing."
Smon: brb

chris107: I'll grab a quick coffee then
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will close it
Smon: Sandro closes the weighty tome.
Sandor Sunneson: head on?
JamesDevil: indeed, let us push on
Smon: There is more red-runed writing on the leather (skin?) cover. It practically oozes wickedness.
JamesDevil: ooc unless we want to end early
Keelia: Bright Star nods (do those stairs to the south lead on?)
Smon: Are you going up the south stairs?
Keelia: (let's check out one more room?)
chris107: back
JamesDevil: one more room, then head up methinks
Keelia: Bright Star will go up the south stairs
Smon: A faint candle glow comes from up the stairs.
chris107: Mordred wants to destroy the wicked book.
chris107: Piece it with the Sword of Destiny.
JamesDevil: fine
JamesDevil: Danor casts sacred flame on the book
JamesDevil: i assume it doesn't make the dex save
Keelia: Bright Star pauses on the stairs, looking towards them, waiting to see what happens
Smon: BS goes up the stairs while Mordred stabs the Tome of Cruel Lies and Danor hits it with radiant flame.
Smon: Mordred roll a DC 10 wis save.
chris107: "Athena bless us!"
chris107 rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 4, (+3) = 7
Smon: w advtg

chris107 rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 6, (+3) = 9
Smon: aww
JamesDevil:
chris107: bugger
JamesDevil: Athena is not impressed
Sandor Sunneson: She's having a white wine at her local boozer it appears
chris107: hehe
Smon: The evil book bursts into black flame, but in a final outpouring of hateful energy Mordred is Cursed.
Keelia: Bright Star considers her few remaining potions and wonder if any are of us
Sandor Sunneson: Boozer called Bacchus's Tavern
chris107: "Aaarrggghh! It was worth it to see such evil destroyed!"
JamesDevil: Danor casts remove curse on him
Smon: Mordred has disad on all rolls & must make a WIS save at start of each turn or do nothing.
chris107: Cripes
Smon: Danor invokes the power of the Dwarves to cleanse Mordred...
JamesDevil: Danor cast remove curse on him
Smon: The curse is cleansed from Mordred.
JamesDevil: "be purged of the unclean"
chris107: "Thank you Danor. I will make a sacrifice to your Gods and mine when we return to Selatine."
JamesDevil: "Indeed, lets move on shall we?"
Keelia: Bright Star, seeing that all is in hand, continues up the stairs
chris107: Mordred shivers at the memory of the dreadfulcurse but presses on.
Smon: BS comes out at the top of the steps. The ogre shaman had converted this private shrine of the Erdea family into his headquarters. The room is lit by a dozen black candles and is decorated with the intestines of several slain dwarves.
Smon: There is a large wooden trunk under the makeshift bed.
Keelia: Bright Star motions for whoever is behind her to stop. She will investigate for traps
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 10, (+6) = 16
chris107: "Those untreated intestines will breed germs. And the whole place needs a good dust!"
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will stop
Smon: GM: The room is about 20x20. BS searches around, finds no traps.
JamesDevil: Danor seeing the slain Dwarf and mutters a prayer for their souls then moves on
Keelia: "Does anyone sense any evil?"
chris107: Mordred stops. His criticism of Ogre interior decor left unfinished.
Keelia rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 17, (+8) = 25
Smon: The rotting intestines draping the walls give the place a cozy feel.
Keelia: "or rather active evil?"
JamesDevil: Danors looks at BS for a little longer than needed.....no, no evil here
chris107:
JamesDevil: Danor will grab the large chest and drag it into the centre of the room
chris107: Mordred stands guard at the bottom of the steps watching the entrance.
Keelia: "Its contents may be unpleasant. Brace yourself."
Keelia: She draws her bow, just in case
JamesDevil: Danor tries to open the Chest
Smon: Danor drags the chest into the middle of the room. It seems unlocked; Danor lifts the lid.
Smon: Inside are scattered about a thousand gold pieces and an ornate wand, Danor recognises it as a wand of magic detection.
chris107: nice
Keelia: Bright Star wishes for a bag of holding. "We'll have to split it to carry it all."
Sandor Sunneson: Cool
Sandor Sunneson: how many thousand?
JamesDevil: I'm at my carry limit because of the extra set of armour
Smon: "about a thousand"
chris107: me too
Keelia: Bright Star isn't. She didn't take any armour so it wouldn't slow her down.
DESTROYERBILL: i can carry it
Keelia: And Sandro didn't either, I think.
JamesDevil: take as much as you can then
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Sandor Sunneson: will do
Sandor Sunneson: Or T can carry the chest?
Keelia: (Will it stop him from being able to fight?)
JamesDevil: i guess if T can carry the cwhole chest that would help a great deal
Smon: You can carry the coins in your packs.
JamesDevil: he can always drop it
Sandor Sunneson: lol
Smon: Chest is much bigger than the coins
Sandor Sunneson: We'll put coins in packs then
Smon: GM: You collect up the money - 250gp per PC.
Sandor Sunneson: cool
Keelia: cool
Smon: Reckon I'll stop there, you can have 450 XP each.

12/5/8 Erdea Manor #3 (400 XP)

7:19am  2018-5-12 Smon Has entered the room
Smon: Hi James
JamesDevil: Hi Simon
7:22am  2018-5-12 Sandor Sunneson Has entered the room
Sandor Sunneson: Morning boyz
Smon: Morning Fergus
JamesDevil: Morning Fergus
Smon: Fergus I was thinking if you wanted to stick with playing Sandro today I could adjust the dates so current Erdea Manor adventure takes place after your trip to Stonehell last Sunday?

Sandor Sunneson: sure
Sandor Sunneson: don't mind Simon,
Smon: OK then Erdea expedition is then set 12/5/48 a week after you fought berserkers in Stonehell.
7:27am  2018-5-12 Smon Has exited the room
Sandor Sunneson: was thinking with Sandro, he would be happy going to do adventures in Ahyf area, would be good to have a PC buddy to do that with.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor even
7:27am  2018-5-12 Smon Has entered the room
Sandor Sunneson: Guess you read response? Happy to play Sandro
Smon: >>Smon: OK then Erdea expedition is then set 12/5/48 a week after you fought berserkers in Stonehell.<<

Sandor Sunneson: Kelia joining us and Chris popping in for last hour?
Smon: Hopefully yes
Smon: Just PM'd Keelia
Sandor Sunneson: Is Erdea a town or area? Where is it in location to Ahyf (roughly)??
7:32am  2018-5-12 Keelia Has entered the room
JamesDevil: Hi Keelia
Keelia: Hi guys! I'm running a few minutes behind
Smon: Hi Keelia

Keelia: i just need two minutes. Sorry!
Smon: >>Is Erdea a town or area? Where is it in location to Ahyf (roughly)??<< Erdea manor is the ruined abode of the long gone Erde noble clan of ancient Nerath. About 5 miles west of the Lighthouse of St Ulther in the Ghinarian Hills.
Smon: About 80 miles from Ahyf.
Sandor Sunneson: Ok, thanks, know roughly now.
Keelia: right, sorry, thanks!
Keelia: is that where we're going?
Smon: The Erde are said to have accumulated great riches fighting for Nerath, but legends say that as the power of the clan waned following the Fall of Nerath 250 years ago, their great manor began to sink and collapse back into the earth.
Smon: That's where you were at end of last session.
Keelia: even better, we're already there!
Keelia: awesome
Smon: Chris's map https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=435503196908825&set=gm.2018265691769812&type=3&ifg=1
Smon: Smon: You look around the antechamber - the bodies of a half-dozen goats are hung on wooden pegs on the east and north walls. The secret door you came in by is opened by removing one of the wooden pegs from the wall and reaching in to press a switch along the bottom of the peg hole. There is a small fire here, and a large pot of tea-like substance on the fire. The two passages exiting from this room have massive and ornate archways over them with the Erdea coat of arms at the peak and both bases of the arch.
Sandor Sunneson: go west?
Smon: A bunch of dead wolves lie heaped just beyond the southern arch, where a tunnel leads south - one wolf escaped. The west arch leads to stairs down.
JamesDevil: anyone need Aid before we move?
Keelia: are they actually goats? I have a sudden memory of a 'white goat' being a euphemism for human sacrifice
Keelia: west works for me
Smon: GM OOC: When combat happens we'll try the variant init system I mentioned. Yes they are goats.
JamesDevil: west it is then, kitty first
Keelia: Bright Star will take the lead, keeping an eye out for traps and an ear out for any other enemies.
JamesDevil: I'll follow behind a few paces
Smon: The three dwarves have conferred and decide to head out with their loot from the hidden armoury you discovered. They thank you again for clearing out the surface ogres.
Smon: Mordred is tired and will guard the surface while the dwarves depart.
JamesDevil: in dwarfish "take care"
Smon: Rakara the dragonborn also heads out, leaving the three of you for now.
JamesDevil: fewer the bodies, the greater the share of the loot
Keelia: Bright Star waits until the others have departed before she continues west as suggested
Keelia: She nods at his words
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will wish Mordred a happy snooze and tell him to catch up once he has had his beauty sleep
Sandor Sunneson: and then follow Kitty west
Smon: GM: Once the others have left, BS stealths down a short flight of stairs into a bare tiled chamber about 15' n-s by 25' e-w, with two alcoves in the N & S walls towards the west end, just before a broad archway in the west wall opens out into what looks like a n-s tunnel.
Smon: Sandro follows BS down the stairs, descending about 10' to the lower chamber.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will see if he hears any noises to the n and s
Smon: can roll percep both of you
JamesDevil: Danor ios following
Keelia: She will check out the alcoves
Keelia rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 12, (+8) = 20
Smon: Danor stomps down the stairs as BS approaches the alcoves.
Keelia: pp 18
7:48am  2018-5-12 SugarShark Has entered the room
Sandor Sunneson rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 11, (+5) = 16
Smon: 20 is exact pass - something not right about the floor here... BS looks closer and detects the faint signs of a pressure plate which crosses the floor from the n to s alcove.
Keelia: "Hold," she calls out to the others
Keelia: "A trap"
Smon: (hi Sugarshark)
SugarShark: lurking above and below. hey hey
Keelia: she crouches down to investigate it.
SugarShark: (oh yeah brackets)
JamesDevil: Guidance on BS when she tries to investigate
JamesDevil: then again when she tries to disarm (assuming she gets that far!)
Smon: BS can roll investigate
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 16, (+6) = 22
Keelia rolls 1d4 and gets: 1,
Keelia: 23 total
JamesDevil: every little helps
Keelia: (indeed  )
Smon: The plate is about 5' wide, disguised as part of the stone tiled floor. It looks too big to easily jam. Checking around, BS detects numerous tiny holes in the rear walls of the alcoves, the kind that could emit something nasty if the plate was depressed.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 2,
Keelia: She points this out to the others
JamesDevil: "can we try jamming the holes"?
JamesDevil: "that or jump over the plate"
Smon: You would have to step into the alcoves, onto the plates, to reach the holes - the design is rather clever.
Keelia: She'll step around the pressure plate and go check out the alcove, to see if the holes appear burned or such to try to work out what the output would be
JamesDevil: "if its only 5"
JamesDevil: 5'*
Keelia: Ah nevermind
Smon: The plates fill the alcoves
JamesDevil: so the main path is clear?
Smon: /roll d20-1
Sandor Sunneson: hmmm
Smon rolls 1d20-1 and gets: 11, (-1) = 10
Keelia: "Why trap the alcoves?" Bright Star murmurs.
Sandor Sunneson: there's something of low dex watching us
Smon: The plate runs n-s across the chamber, blocking access to the west exit.
Keelia:  lol
JamesDevil: ooc lol
JamesDevil: ah, k, but its only 5' wide? so jumping it is possible?
Smon: Suddenly you hear heavy footsteps behind you and turn to see several ogres have appeared behind you at the top of the eastern stairs! With them is the wolf that escaped.
Keelia: Bright Star hisses at the wolf and draws her bow immediately
JamesDevil: "screw it jump over the plate
Sandor Sunneson: Shall we let them come to us and they activate the plates?
Smon: Yes it should be possible to take a running jump over the pressure plate through the west arch into the N-S tunnel.
JamesDevil: lets do it
JamesDevil: Danor will jump over the plate to the opposite side
Keelia: She nods at them both and jumps over the plate into the western arch
Smon: The plate is in front of you (west). The ogres behind you (east).
Smon: OK roll init DC 10+
JamesDevil: how far are they?
Sandor Sunneson: ah ok,
JamesDevil rolls 1d20 and gets: 13,
Keelia rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 20, (+6) = 26
Sandor Sunneson rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 1, (+6) = 7
Keelia: waste of a crit!
Sandor Sunneson: lol
Smon: They are about 25' away, up the stairs in the antechamber, hefting clubs & javelins.
JamesDevil: BS jump, i'll stand here and buy Sandor time to make the jump as well
Keelia: (Or you can throw him over as your action and then jump over? then we could trigger the plate from the other side
Keelia: )
JamesDevil: you can always shoot from the opposite side, and i don't want to risk thriowing him onto the plate
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro gets ready to be propelled
Smon: GM: OK Danor & BS take a running jump over the plate through the west arch and into the western tunnel as the lead ogre rushes at Sandro, the rear two throwing javelins.
Sandor Sunneson: by a dwarf
Keelia: He'll be fine. You're strong enough
Smon: No you can't pick up Sandro & throw him & get over youself before the ogres arrive
JamesDevil: no, i stay on this side and cast SoF then stand infront of Sandro
JamesDevil: then cast Sacred flame on the wolf
Keelia: Bright Star is certain that no one is listening to her, so she jumps over and turns to take aim at the ogre
JamesDevil: ooc Im not playing a Goliath barbarian Keelia or i would be tossing Sandro all game
Keelia: (eh, sure you can!)
JamesDevil: lol
JamesDevil: only 15 Str
Smon: GM: BS leaps over the hidden plate (which only she knows exactly where it is) then snaps off a shot at the lead ogre - roll to hit BS
JamesDevil: and no powerful build feat
Smon: Danor moves in front of Sandro and casts sacred flame on it.
JamesDevil: DC15 Dex save from the wolf plz
JamesDevil: then bonus action SoF on myself
Keelia rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 14, (+7) = 21

JamesDevil: one word "ha"
Sandor Sunneson:
Smon: They crowd in so Sandro can't take a running jump
Sandor Sunneson: All that testoserone in a small area, human, dwarf and ogre too.
JamesDevil: can he still try for the jump? at disadvantage or something?
Smon: Two are adjacent to Sandro (to left & right) as well as to Danor, so could attack either of you.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro gets his swords out ready to attack (last)
Smon: yes he could prob standing jump, or attack
JamesDevil: would make more sense to jump i think, but up to you
Sandor Sunneson: just checking character sheet
Sandor Sunneson: Ok, when it's my turn I'll jump
Smon: GM: The ogre BS shot is the one directly east of Danor, while its unwounded companions went round to N & S

JamesDevil: does she push down on the wrong bir of floor?
JamesDevil: bit*
Sandor Sunneson: oh
Smon: Mordred is standing guard upstairs in the ruins when he hears sounds of fighting drifting up from below. Heading down to the antechamber with the cooking fire and dead goats, looking through the west arch & down stairs he sees three ogres with their backs to him and his companions in a broad archway at west end of the lower chamber, beyond the ogres
Smon: Suddenly a wolf rushes at Mordred out of the darkness!
Sandor Sunneson: That's the second 1 rolled this morning
Sandor Sunneson: or evening
chris107: Init?
Smon: BS's kitten push with bow end has no effect, the pressure plate does not descend.
Smon: Also doing that took her close to the ogres, she could bonus action disengage to swiftly get back from them
Keelia: cunning action to disengage, yes

JamesDevil: I run up as far as I can, can i get los and within 60' of it?
JamesDevil: if I can then I'll cast hold person on it
Smon: Is Sandro move 40' same as ogre? BS can use cat-run x2 speed to catch up. Ogre 120' from Danor (move & dash) so x2 move gets him to 70' away
JamesDevil: i'll double dash and just sit there uselessly then

Sandor Sunneson: 51 damage in total?
Smon: The three heroes slaughter the poor ogre
JamesDevil: nicely done
chris107: Yay!
Keelia: Bright Star was a little miffed about the javelin, to be fair
JamesDevil: ooc continue on?
Smon: Danor comes running up through the surface ruins in time to see his pals standing over the body of the last ogre.
chris107:
Smon: yup 20 mins left to 10.30
Sandor Sunneson: can do
Sandor Sunneson: back to the house?
JamesDevil: "well done everyone"
chris107: “I think I better come with you. You seem to get into mischief without me.”
Keelia: Bright Star nods at him as he approaches. She then crouches to check the body
JamesDevil: anyone need patching up?
Smon: The ogres have very little on them, just hide armour. No supplies - they were probably camping when alerted by the wolf?
JamesDevil: whats everyones HP?
Sandor Sunneson: Full
Smon: The sun is now sinking towards the western mountains, over the lush Ghinarian hills.
JamesDevil: k, back down to that plate, jump it and continue onwards?
Keelia: Bright Star frowns as she stands. (hp = good enough)
chris107: 42/44HP
Smon: GM OOC take 400 XP each
Sandor Sunneson: Lets throw an orgres head on it
Keelia: She turns and heads back the way they came. "Beware the trap plates," she tells Mordred
JamesDevil: good plane

Smon: GM: You return down 2 flights of steps to the pressure plate chamber.
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 1,
chris107: “Thanks.”
Smon: All seems quiet.
JamesDevil: Danor tosses the head onto the plate
chris107: (How big is the pressure plate chamber and any exits?)
Sandor Sunneson: A severed head on a plate! Nice!
Smon: Sandro cuts off an ogre head & Danor tosses it onto the plate - it bounces but nothing happens.
Keelia: lol
JamesDevil: hmm
JamesDevil: Danor slams his hammer down on the plate
chris107: “That’ll do it. “
Smon: The plate is apparently 5' wide (only BS can detect it) and runs about 25' from n to s alcove, with the broad archway to a n-s tunnel just west of it.
Keelia: Bright Star is keeping her distance from this
Smon: Danor roll STR check DC 8
JamesDevil rolls 1d20+2 and gets: 4, (+2) = 6
Smon: BS hangs back
JamesDevil: wtf?
JamesDevil: -.-
Smon: Danor's hammer rings loudly on the stone, but nothing happens.
chris107: Ocham’s Razor has nothing on Danor’s Hammer
JamesDevil: guidance on Danor and try again
Keelia: "Bright Star suggests we jump over and continue, hm?"
Keelia: "After Danor's second attempt"

JamesDevil rolls 1d20+2 and gets: 18, (+2) = 20
JamesDevil rolls 1d4 and gets: 4,
Smon: Mordred backs away. Danor slams harder - the plate descends!
JamesDevil: "A dwarf is never defeated by stone"
Smon: There is a loud whistling sound as jets of transparent gas activate from holes in the alcoves. The gas enfolds Danor & Sandro, it's very cold. Further back Mordred & BS catch a whiff of the odourless but cold gas.
Smon: OK poison saves, Mordred & BS have advtg as they were standing well back.
Smon: DC 15, Danor has advtg as dwarf

Smon: (CON save) Danor slumps to the ground fast asleep.
JamesDevil: least i have resistence

Keelia: (thanks)
JamesDevil: aw
Smon: The loud whistling continues.
Keelia Rolls 1d20+1x2 and gets:
19 (+1) = 20
11 (+1) = 12
chris107: Whistling like an alarm?
Smon: After a moment you start to hear ogrish cries from deeper in the complex, from beyond the west arch. "Truders! Whistlin!"
Sandor Sunneson: or like a kettle ?
Smon: Yes it is coming from the gas holes in the alcoves, although Mordred is too far back to see them.
Smon: Yes like a kettle
Smon: You all feel a bit sleepy. Danor is sleeping
JamesDevil: does sleep break concentration?
chris107: “To the top of the stairs! They can only attack one at a time there. You grab Danor. I’ll act as rearguard.”
Smon: yes obviously
JamesDevil: ah, nvm, guidance did that
chris107: Ah
Keelia: Bright Star shakes her head. "Mordred, back up the stairs." She holds her breath, presses her sleeve across her face, and runs down to grab Danor and drag him back
chris107: He shouts from behind
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro heads to the stair top
JamesDevil: just wake me up
Smon: >>guidance did that<<
chris107:
JamesDevil: @Simon, no point me lying about it
Keelia: (she'll shake him and if he wakes, she'll help him, otherwise, she'll tie a rope around his wrist and have Sandro help her pull)
chris107: “Wake him up, Sandro!”
Keelia: (from the stairs)
Smon: GM: Mordred & Sandro retreat to the top of the stairs while BS tries to drag Danor back.
Sandor Sunneson: Sandro will wake him or try to and if not head to the stair to[
JamesDevil: how wide are the stairs agin? are we sure they can only approach one at a time?
chris107: 10’
chris107: And yes
Smon: BS roll poison save w advtg as the chamber is full of gas
JamesDevil: hmm, k
Smon: >>Sandro will wake him or try to<< ok Sandro roll poison save w advtg too

15 (+1) = 16
Sandor Sunneson Rolls 1d20+6x2 and gets:
1 (+6) = 7
16 (+6) = 22
chris107: Phew!
Smon: OK you grab Danor's sleeping body and heft him up the steps. He seems fast asleep & does not wake when shaken.
JamesDevil: -.-
Smon: The stairs are only wide enough for 1 ogre at a time
chris107: Mordred prepares to defend the stair
JamesDevil: prop my body up and use me as a sheild
Smon: The gas is now thick enough you can see a whitish miasma forming below you and rolling out into the west tunnel.
Keelia: Bright Star shifts so she is behind mordred, bow drawn
Smon: You can hear ogres yelling in the distance.
Smon: The whistling sound begins to fade.
Keelia: Bright Star wets a piece of cloth and ties it across her nose and mouth
Sandor Sunneson: Kettles boiled!
Smon: The ogres don't seem to be coming towards you.
Keelia: (tea's up!  )
Smon: anyone have Medicine skill to check Danor?
chris107: “Let’s let them settle. At least until our Dwarf wakes?”
Keelia: not trained but I have +2
Smon: can't tell how long he'll be out if untrained
JamesDevil: ooc I would like to medicine check myself while I am asleep >.>
Smon:
Smon: The whistling ends.
Keelia: I have a potion that can put him back to sleep but nothing to wake him up
Smon: The pale miasma begins to dissipate.
Smon: You are staying at the top of the stairs?
JamesDevil: ooc i doubt the cure for sleep is more sleep
Sandor Sunneson: Might be a good place to continue next time??
JamesDevil: as much as i wish that was true in real life.....
Keelia: Bright Star will sneak down after signalling Mordred to stay on guard.
chris107: My vote would be yes, until Danor wakes
Keelia: (ah, yes, time is up)
Keelia: (could give him a shot of speed, see if that wakes him)
JamesDevil: lol
JamesDevil:
Smon: OK will stop there
JamesDevil: this maay end up turning into Pukp Fiction
