Down the Dungeon Way - the actual gaming thread

[Kafen]

Chuckling, the cleric laughs and shakes his head no. "We can try to avoid outright death by maiming. I would not mind going first, but it's pretty tough to heal and dodge." He shrugs. "Not that it matters. I am out of healing magic for the most part. so, we can;t get hurt. So, I can go first when I think about it." He cheers up at the thought.

Beillion pauses to see what the others decide. He is willing to go first.

[Kaber]

Sim has been oblivious to those around him, walking in steady pace with his face in a large book, muttering occasionally. Snickerpuss sleeps on his shoulder. Sim stops with the rest of the party and moves when they move.

(OOC- I still have to raise Sim to level 4. Did everyone else gain their levels?)

[Ismaels-Legacy]

A burly man ducks through the main doors and presses his back to the wall, attempting to remain out of sight from the main corridor and entryway. His hide armor creaks with his labored breathing. It seems he spent some time running and running hard.
"Damned Elf! Why's she keep trying to tie me up!" he mutters to himself. He slowly takes in his surroundings and realizes that it seems someone has recently been here. Mostly, it just occurred to him that the doors were open.

[Ooc]I'm just going to go aheadd and write my own cut-scene[/ooc]

Lynesse had been traveling for weeks, eveytime she managed to catch up with "Evis" as he called himself, she lost his trail. Giving up was not an option, her reputation depended on this.

There had been benefits, she'd found plenty of people to share her bed along the way.

Last nights tracks had led her to the grove, numerous cris-cross tracks, some light on their feet, others heavily booted.

The fresh grave, the dwarf, that was obvious, his tracks did not go back inside. The others did, but its was too hard to tell how many.

Checking the sword on her back, she stepped inside the doors.

She picked up the Portcullis instantly, jumping the trigger with a single bounce, the almost fresh blood told her someone met their end here... no the trail of blood continued.

The next room, that told another story, the ooze, a cube, someone fought here, they went into the next room, a secret door had been triggered.

Stepping inside the room cautiously, her hands slipped to her weapon.

"Well met fellows, Evis, tell me where he is, and no-one needs to get hurt." She smiles, her blue eyes glittering.

"I left you tied up in a room..." She smiles again at the man...

[Stik]

"Bwaah!!" Martin exclaims at the newcomer's approach. His hands move quickly, drawing weapons, and he assumes a fighting posture.
The effect is ruined, however, because although his right holds a long and gleaming skull-hilted rapier in a high guard, his left holds a plush/stuffed toy duck.

"What?" he says, looking at his compatriots. " 'Bwaah.' It's a warrior's cry."

[Jenara]

"Lower your weapon Master Jester, I have no quarrel with you. I simply seek Evis the thief..."

She pauses, winking at the newly arrived warrior, licking her lips.

"Just one moment, what are you doing here? You've lost someone I can tell... What is this?"

[Ismaels-Legacy]

The warrior looks apprehensive in the face of the elf before him. Even though he dwarfs her, he seems terribly shaken by her presence.
"Look, I don't know who you think I am, but I am most certainly NOT the man you left tied up and naked at the Inn of Lost Hope!"

[Jenara]

Esse simply reaches over and pinches him on the butt....

"You weren't complianing whennI was on top...." She winks again, giggling at his blush..

"Say, sexy, I have an idea, he's not here.. but these fellows are, fancy seeing where this goes?" She points to the corridor ahead? "It might be fun... I might even let you share my bedroll..."

"Oh," She adds, "I have still got the whip, I know how much you love it!"

[Kaber]

Sim snaps his book shut in a sudden rush of insight. "Of course!" He cries, whirling around to face the new comers. He begins to pace while rambeling.

" Alchemical transmutation can only be obtained through vibrational intonation of a particular incantation while using physical gesture to shape the magical energies derived from focused thought into altered matter! Haha! The magical energies of the "weave" give rise to the manifestation of mental stimuation brought about by hyper realistic visualization of the desired object! FANTASTIC! So that would mean that a material componant is needed in order to spur the actuation of the spell since matter must be consumed in one form to bring rise the the energies in another form. BRILLIANT!"

Sim stops abruptly, facing the newcomers again.
"Oh, hello. Are you new? Well no matter, I am sure my companions have introduced us. Snickerpuss and myself that is, for I am Simarillacabum, the lands greatest Wild Mage and I know many things" Sim pauses a moment and then sheepishly asks, "Do you know anything about spider webs?"

[Jenara]

Esse frowns, "no, I have not been introduced, 'him' " she slaps the warrior on the butt once more, "I know,
the rest of you, I have no idea. You have yet to state your purpose here."

"Wild mage? I have met your kind before" Esse backs away, bumping her back purposely into the warrior..

[LadyWinterWolf]

*Once again the NPC Fairies appear and haul off Kleos and Evis this time.*

*A voice speaks to the group from beyond the open door* "Come into my parlor said the spider to the fly. Remember my lovelies, never assume that what I say is the truth, or perhaps it is; one never really knows with my kind."

[Ismaels-Legacy]

Bjarg lets out a slight whimper and quickly moves across the room. "I think I'll check out this door!" he states overly deliberately. He can be heard muttering something about a codpiece being uncomfortable.

[OOC: I'd like to examine the door itself, Mistress LWW!]

[Jenara]

[ooc]Just activated quick reply on this thread, you can simply reply from the box at the bottom now[/ooc]

Pushing Bjarg aside with a bump of her hips, Esse quickly checks the door for any sign of a trap [ooc] it may have already been done, but she doesnt know that [/ooc] roll 43

Assuming its ok, she check how it opens, then turn to the rest of the group.
"So, fellas, I'm going to stick about for a bit, might be fun..."

"What do you say hide boy? You with me?"
