OOC: sorry for the delay, the site keeps eating my post. I rolled an 18, then rolled a 1 for damage, throwing my torch at the ghost. Amalthia is right behind the two with the door, either popping around it to throw, or (if it's low enough) throwing at the ghost and then ducking behind the door with ...

OOC: None of those are my characters. :D Did we lose someone? The frightened band flee towards the first room, hoping to climb out and escape. Xim, seemingly less terrified, follows along, thinking of how he'll deactivate the gas trap if it goes off again, as his fellows are out of their minds.

OOC: I thought we were loading up the door, tying it to the goat, and leading it towards the well. How are we bringing supplies down with us? If Luc is going first, Amalthia will ask how the water is doing: is it deep enough to drop Sir Cudsworth down, or will we need to carry him?

OOC: 1, 2, 11, 19, 9. Jeepers. If it's in the previous order, blurg. Xim is the 19.

OOC: Copromancer, Jenkins, Joseph, Xim, and Marvin. What would the damage of a torch be? Assuming d6. 1, 2, 5, 5, 3.

I'm going to have mine throw torches at it. It's slime, so it must be able to burn, right? Copromancer points: "Throw flames upon it! Let this creature of the primordial expulsion burn, fulfilling its destiny!" With that, he and the others toss their torches at the creature. But that'll ha...

OOC: Yeah, I'm not sure myself. I mean, does the symbol need a ritual to activate, or is the door the bearer of a warding zone around it? When we get to the well, I suppose it couldn't hurt. If we can't defend ourselves, the phantoms could just phase through the ground and kill us. Maybe we'll find ...

Amalthia will help them, and pull the door once we're ready to go. Do we want to load up the door as a sort of sled, maybe have the goat pull it? That way all hands are free to weild weapons when needed. Tie the rope around the goat, thread it between parts of the door frame, then Amalthia pulls the...

Okay, Amalthia will pull the door.

OOC: Could Amalthia drag the door, horizontal from the front, back surface dragging, like carrying a sled (or a single person dragging another person on a stretcher)? Otherwise, she'll help carry as much as she can (torches, the walking stick) with her other hand holding her dagger ready to throw.

OOC: Agreed on the passive. I think I'll fix that right now by grabbing things to throw: pieces of firewood, maybe that hatchet, and her dagger. If I lose her, I'm out of the game, so I'll go ranged. If needed, I'll have her swing around behind a given opponent. Any other weapons that we could throw?

10, 14, 11, 17, 8. Unless we're all one roll for this one? Marvin is holding his sword before the others, who are not charging forward. Copromancer takes the nearest torch and lights his "sack of gong" on fire. "Someone throw this!" Jenkins, being an agile fellow, takes the sack ...

OOC: I'd rather we stayed together. Amalthia can throw her dagger and have the goat attack. Plus splitting the party is a bad idea. We can at least aid another. Dead is dead anyway we split it.

OOC: I'm back! Gosh I'm glad you looked through other posts. I think we NEED the stick and the holy symbol. The challenge is that the cabin that ate Igor has his holy symbol in it. The well symbol is therefore more important, and Amalthia just cannot help in combat: one hp is a liability. I'd like t...

OOC: is it too late to change my character's name to Hawthorn? No? Yes? IC: Amalthia goes up after Nan, takes a look at the pictures. "Okay, so we can get the holy symbol from the well. What about the staff? And what's up with the corn dolls of our dead friends? And are the ghosts our friends, ...

Joseph snaps at Red Robert, "Aye, why waste more life down here? Better keep watch for whatever grabbed the pup. I'll try to get it, I've a way with animals. Just... watch my back." Marvin and the others move forward, save Copromancer (who watches with an aloof curiosity, studying this pla...

5, 16, 3, 12

Let's say Copromancer and Jenkins at 16 and 12?

Marven with his sword, and the others, follow Red Robert, monitoring the pile of rubble in case of danger.

Joseph is the exception, and works with the others searching through the room.

OOC: Whoever needs help, I'm helping.

"We should stay to the left, keep track of our path here. And see what objects those are." Copromancer suggests to those moving past the room.

OOC: I'd go in alone, but I won't split the party.

Amalthia keeps watch while they go in, following along dutifully. She is immediately aware of how frail she feels, but helps as she can.


OOC: unless we find clues here, let's hurry on to the well.

Also: How long until we gain a level? Is it 10 or 4 XP?

Joseph hangs his head. "Blasted ruins. What are we doing here, anyway? Surely that beast in the first room, the spider-thing, is what took the dog. We're no heroes, why continue on?" Jenkins looks back down the hallway. "Yeah, but did you see a spiderweb? The body of that girl's dog? ...

14, 15, 14, 3, 2

Copromancer, Marvin, Jospeh, Jenkins, Xim... 6 for the dog?

And they run!

(thought the picture may have been part of the puzzle. Drat.)

In we go!

ooc: Gosh, I hope this ends well. We need rope. Maybe the goat's lead would help? But we also need a light source.

Hey, does elven Infravision let Amalthia see in the dark?

Copromancer starts pushing other buttons down the column, starting with the ones directly below the lowering one. Jenkins will start pressing from the top right down, and Marvin (seeing what's going on) will rush over and do the left side. Xim and Joseph will likewise run over and start up from the ...
