Bert - Priest

Bert scowls at the interruption, stopping what he's doing and turning to Tor. "Thank you for your help, but we probably should attend to the threat approaching. Looks like Fauk is handling that direction, perhaps we should face these trog-la-what things."

Bert will draw his mace and sheld as he says a quick silent prayer for our victory.

Tor gently--for Tor--releases his grip on the gnome he's carrying, nodding in agreement with Brother Bert. He hoists his greatsword and, preparing to meet the smelly troglodyte onslaught, tests out his new battle cry:

A grizzly's paw is always cold because it's bear!

Fauk's cries are not heard over the shrieking of mushrooms. He empties oil in the suspected path of the centipedes. They approach from the northeast.

Slip finds no shadows in the bright light of the fungus, but hides behind the stalk of a giant mushroom. d6=6 It happens to be a shrieker that she is hidden behind. The trogs approach from the south.

Bert talks at Tor but is unheard over the siren-like wail. However, the mace and his gestures towards the northeast and south communicate his intentions.

Tor heads southward, his sword at the ready.

Trebbolos hides behind a mushroom stalk, not as well as Slip, but good enough. He starts weaving his fingers in a spell.

Two troglodytes to the south and three centipedes to the north. Oil reception is laid.

Actions?

Fauk 8/9
Slip 5/5
Tor 9/9
Bert 3/6
Trebb 4/4

Fauk will light the fire as the centipedes enter the pool of oil.

Slip
Image

Struggling through the Shrieking and waiting for a moment to strike, she tries to concentrate to figure out how many Shriekers are actually shrieking.


Scout, Tinkerer, and Cartographer
+ Arrows = 20
+ HP: 5
+ AC: 5
Target priority: imminent danger (self or companion), then the target most injured.
When possible, Slip will always try to retrieve previously fired arrows.

Slip is certain there are three of them.

Tor lets out a battle cry, but will hold his position, then swing his sword at the first troglodyte to come within melee range.

Bert stands beside Tor and will bash any trog that comes near them.

Slip waits for an opportunity to strike; if one does not present itself, then she'll try to kill the nearest Shrieker.

Bert, Tor, Trebb, and Slip are in the south side of the cavern and engage the troglodytes. They must save vs poison as the stench of the trogs envelops them. Bert d20=11 save! Tor d20=12 save! Trebb d20=2 FAIL! Slip d20=12 FAIL (by 1)! Slip and Trebb are -2 to attack.

Initiative party d6=3 trogs d6=5 Troglodytes have initiative

Trog 1 doesn't see Slip and doesn't consider Trebb a threat. He goes after d2=2 Tor. d20=12 miss
Trog 2 goes after d2=2 Tor as well. d20=7 miss

Tor attacks Trog1 d20=18 hit d10=4 dmg
Bert gangs up on Trog1 d20=11 miss
Slip slips a blade in Trog 2 d20=18-2+4=20 hit dmg d6=6x2=12 Trog2 is dead.
Trebb decides that he doesn't like the smell and heads north to help Fauk...

meanwhile...

Fauk lights the oil as the centipedes enter it. dmg d8=4 dmg d8=5 dmg d8=7
All three giant centipedes die in the conflagration.

One troglodyte remains, engaged with Tor. Could be a short engagement though, I don't think Tor wants to be married quite yet...

Actions?

Fauk 8/9
Slip 5/5
Tor 9/9
Bert 3/6
Trebb 4/4
