LOST TRAILS OOC

[ewancummins]

Klokulf will unsheathe his morningstar, then cast ghost sound to create menacing roars, trying to frighten the green men into disarray. His base Intimidate skill is +4.
He will also try and make sure his prisoner does not slip away or get stolen.

Two move actions, pretty much. Okay.

Assumed action for Katrin 9will edit if Kintire gets online and doesn't agree with this call)

sap/pommel/broken board bash for blunt damage on any who get too close, while keeping her distance so she isn't surrounded and pulled down


She has learned how poorly stabbing works on these particular monsters)

Noted.
She keeps clear, at least.

NPC
(Just Periele, the guide, unless the party wanted to drag all the others along. I assume they stay on the fishing boat, for safety.:

Scream, avoid combat but grab at charred boards/chair legs, duck for cover, etc.

Prisoner:

Just stand there tied up in the stone rope, watching the fight with those black, dead, eyes...

[ewancummins]

No monsters attack Alhoon or the NPCs. He gummed up a doorway and stopped a bunch from coming through, actually webbing several of them.

Katrin evades.

Sir Clive just offed the ones near him.

The others swarm Klokulf, Alain, and Benn. They have to move to get close, then attack.

0 on Klokulf

1 on his stone rope, sunder attempt with spade

2 on Alain
3 ditto

4 on Benn
5 on Benn

Just hit Klokulf (Benn's breastplate, good thing he's got it)

New round, monsters have initiative.

They immediately fall back and seek cover. Several remain trapped in the web in one doorway.
I will post all this and more in IC, in just a bit.

[ewancummins]

bluff roll Benn
or perform : mimicry

Same difference.

ACTIONS?

Is the party pressing forward to continue the combat or stopping to investigate/attempt to communicate?

Something else?
No creatures are attacking at this time.

(The ones able to move freely used a withdraw action).

[alhoon]

Are there still monsters trying to come through the web or they are trying to get back while the "something" whistles?
If Raen sets the web on fire, how likely it is that a second temple, this one dedicated to knowledge, would go down in flames? Raen wants to avoid that so I don't see that action as likely for the time. Better someone goes there and decapitates the trapped monsters.

Not sure which door the sound of "conversing" thing comes from or where that sequence comes from. Raen tries to get to cover leading Periele to hide too.

The monsters have burned a lot of stuff in this main chamber.

But there are wooden doors, panels, beams, and there might be more books and scrolls in other areas...

The guys caught in the web seem to be attempting to move back, away from the party and down a hall.

[alhoon]

... there might be more books and scrolls in other areas...

No fire. Raen would also try to stop anyone that gets the idea to burn the web

[ewancummins]

If you guys do try to negotiate/parley with them:

One party member may roll Bluff or Perform for pantomime and mimicry.
He should also roll Diplomacy.

Raen finds a sooty wall curtain of heavy, coarse silk that should serve nicely for a cloak to toss over an enemy or maybe foul an enemy's thrusting weapon.

He and Katrin easily find cudgels or spades dropped by the slain green men. (No roll needed for that).

[alhoon]

Well, silk is silk.
Raen will depend on a cudgel if possible and try to salvage the silk curtain. With some wash and a little mending magic part of it may be sellable.

If negotiation doesn't work, maybe we can just ad lib some knocking and whistling music and see how they react.
