A42: Kobold Living Area

Feb 14, 2006 13:21

A number of orc and kobold bodies lie in this room along with a couple of the flying octopus creatures. Stools, reed mats, and blankets are strewn over the place along with what were probably the personal possessions of the kobolds that made this their home.

Lugh scans the upper half of the room for floctopuses.

There doesn't seem to be anything on the ceiling, but when Lugh looks down there are several very large rats crawling out from underneath some of the junk in the room. They don't attack immediately, but bare their teeth at hiss at the paladin.

"Lugh, I didn't sense any magic in the area..."

Swindler stops just inside the doorway, and looks at the rats

"Oh."

Cora blesses the party as Jug'Jug and Lugh (at least) prepare to enter the room. She then readies her crossbow.

*Bless (+1 to attack for 1 minutes, which is ? rounds)

Jug'Jug nods to the dwarf, pulling the door open. If the rats are right at the door entrance she will attack. If they are a good ways away still she will stoop over to collect rubble, trash, even going so far to draw her dagger and throw it at the rats to provoke them. When/if they do come through the door she will take a 5 foot step back so the rest of the party can get attacks in on the vermin.

She says over her shoulder to Cora and Swindler in case the rats don't move forward.

"If dey no com'b shoot dem!"

1 round = 6 seconds :D]]

Surprise Round raynbow February 15 2006, 13:39:39 UTC

Jug'Jug pulls open the door, and it appears that the rats have scattered across the room and are caught off guard.

Everyone roll initiative, and declare one action (move OR attack OR spell) this round.

Re: Surprise Round chromodynamics February 15 2006, 13:43:30 UTC

Lugh will have already taken up a position outside the door, and will wait this round for Jug'Jug to taunt the rats out into the hall.

Likewise Cora will position herself in the hallway to fire her crossbow (hopefully without hitting Jug'Jug) in the next round should Jug'Jug's taunting fail this round.

Re: Surprise Round raynbow February 15 2006, 13:49:50 UTC

Is wordplay actually still playing? Just curious, cause I haven't seen her post in a while. She still having computer problems?

Re: Surprise Round ominod February 15 2006, 14:03:21 UTC

**Initiative = 22 (15 +7)

(OOC - Rayn, your call on this one...)

Potential Action 1
While Swindler was reading "When Druids Collide" and Jug'Jug made it clear she was going to open the door, Swindler readied his crossbow and sets up for a shot. Thus when the door opened, Swindler would fire if he has a shot. If Jug'Jug is in the way, he will delay action and fire if Jug'Jug clears.

Potential Action 2
If Swindler was too engrossed in his book, he will take this round to replace the short sword with the crossbow, letting the orc and dwarf (and cleric, and survivor, and robot monk...) take the lead and "Cheney" the rats from the hallway next round.

Round 1 raynbow February 15 2006, 16:41:04 UTC

The door is now open, and the rats are scattered through the room. The group is gathered in the hallway, near the door. The shadows in the room make it hard to get a clear shot at the rats.

Re: Round 1 ominod February 15 2006, 16:49:57 UTC

"Draw them out!"

Swindler attempts to position himself on the side of the doorway (move 5', I hope), drawing his short sword, and delaying his attack for if/when the lil' beasties make a move.

Re: Round 1 chromodynamics February 15 2006, 17:00:55 UTC

Lugh and Cora also delay, waiting for Jug'Jug.

Re: Round 1 raynbow February 15 2006, 19:33:51 UTC

Sorry about the delay, attempting to move things on now. Spot checks everyone please.

"Terribly sorry, sir Lugh - I meant no insult towards your appearance. I'm simply a little frazzled right now - and really, can you blame me? It has been a rather trying day."

Talbot takes a quick peek into the room, still bouncing one of the Dancing Lights in his hand.

"Don't see any rats in there, from hell or otherwise. Whew. Well, then, if these things bothered you so much, madam Jug'Jug..."

With a snap of Talbot's fingers, the dancing lights wink out.

"And, sir Lugh, I do apologize for being catapulted out of a door that ate me and forced me to wander around in a barren wasteland with endless little things that were gnawing upon me. I'm sure we'll find more rats from whatever layer of the Hells you might desire to taunt at some later date."

[Foom! Darn it! I was sure I responded to that thread, to Swindler's posts! Oh well, it was getting a bit long anyhow.]

Re: and provided he doesn't get jumped during search #1 wayfarer February 16 2006, 15:35:05 UTC

The Orc locks a cold stare on Talbot.

"Yu need tu shut yer trap pushdog."

Maintaining the stare, she moves close to Swindler, bending at the knees to get close to his ear and whispers.

"Whut d'iz Mad'um werd? It sum kind uff insult?" Obviously refering to the word "Madam" that the new bard continiosuly uses to describe Jug'Jug.

Re: and provided he doesn't get jumped during search #1 kasourikou February 16 2006, 16:05:40 UTC

"Hmmph. Pardon me, madam Jug'Jug. I will attempt to be more quiet. Hopefully that door will just eat me again and put me somewhere else..."
