Hi drpete et al. Sorry for the disappearing act. What started as a few days of project crunch time over a weekend got interrupted by a very bad turn in the illness of a close family member. It has now become clear that that illness is terminal. As my family is now providing full time care, my spare ...

Galen nods, slowly, "Agreed."

Can the poison be harvested at all or the venom be spread over his sword blade or javelin points? If Brother Galen sees Quinn getting too close to the creature and its tentacles, he'll rather forcefully say, "Get away from that crawler of carrion, you fool! Unless you want us leaving your para...

Happy 4th, all y'all!

Happy belated Canada Day to you.

Thanks!

May the Fourth be with you!

Galen will listen at the door before we open it, and if he hears nothing, will get Emm to open the door and check inside for danger while he holds a lantern. I'm thinking this is only going to take a couple rounds, not a ten minute search of the room or anything. If the room is clear, we'll begin c...

"No! That room is not easily defended or escaped. There is another option..." Brother Galen glances around quickly at the doors, "...there! That chamber has two doors that can be barred. I say we drag them in there and wait for them to recover."

"Kill!" Galen shouts, nearly hurling Ajax forward by the collar. With a growling "whuff!" the massive hound charges at the creature...

Yup.

Brother Galen puffs out a plume in the chill air before speaking, "...would be odd for wolves to bother with so large a group..." Ajax lets out a low, rumbling growl, pulling the leather strap on his collar taut in Galen's hand, "Easy, boy... let's see if there's trouble before we ma...

Barkman recognizes the symbols... I think you mean Randolpho! :D Unfortunately, I'm a little confused, because there was "voting" for where to go in 2 different threads, and people might have changed their minds. Are you going in the front door or the dwarf door? I think we're trying to g...

Yes. Wasn't that referring to the illusion we saw? I'll admit that I assumed it was...

Wait... is Quinn leading a separate expedition to the dwarven door while we're back? Is that just to check if the door is open? Or is Quinn planning on a delve? EDIT: Stirling posted while I was typing. Lemme respond to that... The Oracle only 'knew' about this one level of the Dwimmermount and did ...

Would rather ask a question about the demon. Doors locks can be picked, hinges filed through, etc The demon is not a wandering monster, maybe summoned or released to aid Termax. What "demon" are you referring to? The only one we've seen was nothing more than an illusion. Asking about it n...

I think the first question should be how to open it. If we can manage to ask another we can ask about room contents.

Just a reminder, I suggested we ask the Oracle about how to open the metal door and what's behind it...

Works for me.

Paid
14gp for Emm (Henchman)

The henchmen, being 1st level, have the same upkeep as other 1st level characters... 7 gp/week. You just pay for it, instead of them. One way they can "tell" that you're worthy of being their boss is your cost of living. If they live better than you, you're probably not a promising boss :...
