First Expedition
Re: First Expedition
Emboldened by his charge, and his crushing blow to the first skeleton, Avery swings his hammer again, the name of the god of Peace on his lips, to curse the undead and return it to the hell it so richly deserves (AC Nat 20-2, 2 HP).

Re: First Expedition
Good enough! The skeleton has no eyes, so the crit chart bumps down, allowing Avery an opportunistic strike for +3 extra points of damage. The skeleton is smashed into pieces!
The following (and only the following) characters gain 4 XP each: Alextros, Avery, Char the Red, Girt, Old Jathy, Pora, Silva, Tevez, and Toothy Herman. Although we didn't hear from thogard during the combat, both Old Jathy and Pora were put directly in harm's way, and thus gain XP. Obviously, dead characters garner nothing.

Re: First Expedition
Toothy Herman instructs the survivors to gently, and respectfully, loot the dead.
Re: First Expedition
"I for one strongly suggest quitting this place for now and trying to scrounge up some better equipment with the money we've found so far." says Char.
"Perhaps find some more companions to replace the ones we have lost as well." says Alexatros.

Re: First Expedition
I have no objection, if that is what you wish to do. Likewise, I have no objection if you wish to continue on.
Re: First Expedition
Toothy Herman comes from the crypt room. We can return when we've interred the dead, the old and the new." A sweep on his hand indicates the unfinished work in the room he's just left, and the recently slain. "All will rest easier than these if we do," and he gives a pile of former skeleton a kick.
(Continue the search in the crypt-room, and inter the dead. Then back to town. I wasn't kidding about looting the dead.)

Re: First Expedition
Luck is with you, and you are not further disturbed while dealing with your dead, or while searching the remaining alcoves. To your original 60 silver coins, you add 48, for a total of 108. You also locate a tarnished silver bracelet.
Re: First Expedition
So, anyone opposed to heading back to the surface?
Re: First Expedition
(With all this money, might as well retire! To the surface!)
Re: First Expedition
Whew!
Well Silva and Tevez scour what is useful from the Aguero's sorry body, an awl is all...
These two are fine with returning to the surface but also emboldened by their survival.
"We can purchase more weapons and armor and come back to make short work of these crypt things!"
edit: OOC: I see that most survivors have gotten 6xp... I actually want to stay down here and hack out another 4!

Re: First Expedition
Just let me know what you'd like to do.
All is quiet for the moment.

Re: First Expedition
Toothy Herman looks through the door to the east at the end of the corridor, just to make sure it isn't filled to the brim with gold coins. Then he and the others will make their way back to the surface as best they can.
Re: First Expedition
Sounds good to me, but we move carefully, eyes peeled for traps
And such.
My boys are goin to look into buying armor oil and holy waters. If he can Silva would like to learn how to use that short sword. He'll also pay for a proper burial for Hud and g e condolences to the grieving family.

Re: First Expedition
Opening the door to the east, Toothy Herman sees a room, approximately 30 feet square, but with the corners to the northeast and northwest cut on a diagonal. Between these two diagonal walls, there is another door, exiting to the north. Apart from dust, old cobwebs, and the like, the area appears to be empty.
Do you therefore turn around and head back to the surface?

Re: First Expedition
All right! You troop back to the west without any difficulty, and reach the archway leading into the room where the rope still dangles, allowing egress from the Barrowmaze. So far, so good.
Re: First Expedition
Up we go!
However... I think we only have about 5 gp each. Not much... And only halfway on xp. Lets make the town trip quick. Shopping lists etc.

Re: First Expedition
(We have 10 electrum apiece. That's 100 gold, minimum.)
Girt will be the last up the rope, after carefully tying the end around Giant. When he gets to the top, he will hoist the dog back to the surface, and leave the rope up so nothing can follow.
