If you guys want to establish marching order and other SOP, feel free.

It won't always apply, as some situations will involve a split party, surprise, other constraints of circumstance (attacked while some or all of the party is on a boat), etc.
But the rest of the time, such procedures would speed play and possibly increase party cohesion and effectiveness.

All the PCs are human, so there's no consideration of scouts with darkvision (at night/underground) and no shooting or striking (with pole-arms, spears, etc) over the heads of size small PCs.


You obviously want Sir Clive someplace he can protect casters by interposing himself and his herkin' huge sword. As we have seen, he can easily do as much or more damage as any of teh casters when those power attacks land home. Pow!

Katrin needs to flank in melee to be most effective (sneak attack). She's a good scout, sneaky and perceptive. Unless somebody is using spells to reconnoiter, she's the easily best option for that.

Casters may need line of sight or a clear lane of fire for various spells.

Think also about where to put NPC noncombatants.

The formation needn't be single file when you have more space, as when crossing open country instead of difficult terrain or a dungeon. A wedge might be worth drawing up.

Again, you guys don't need to figure out all this, but I suggest it may be a good idea. I'll leave it at that.

Translation: We will be hit by a breath weapon sooner or later and the DM wants to know who would be in the line of fire - or acid.

Raen, wants to be behind Sir Clive.

Benn is a middle of the group guy.
"Of course," Benn mutters, "It would be a damned shame if we ever knew what the hell was actually going on."

Klokulf should probably stick with Alwina and Theophilus, as long as they are sticking with the main group. They might be safest near the middle, unless a giant glob of acid hits us dead center.

Did Bennedict heal Rowan, or did I? Either way, did I heal Raen? I need to know if cure moderate wounds and cure serious wounds were spent, and whom they went to.

Good enough.

LSB indicated he was very interested in the lair, so I'll proceed/update.

Unless you object, Adam, I think it makes the most sense if you healed Rowan and I used cure serious wounds on Raen. It was established that you could reach her faster, and your healing reserve feat makes this option the most economical.

cure serious wounds:

+5 makes 21 hit points to Raen.

Sorry for the absence, I didn't have time to check the treasure part but ... I would want Raen's cut if we found something good.
Raen also thanks Klokuff for the healing although he is clearly uneasy about accepting healing from an evil power Bane
