The Long, Dark Walk It has been a long walk down. The slope is usually downhill, sometimes stairs are cut into the rock, but most of the journey is made through tunnels. By anyone’s best guess, it has been three days travel. A dozen wardens, a cleric, and an odd wizard guard roughly two-score convicts through the darkness to the mining colony. Each convict is individually bound and carries a portion of the group’s supplies on their backs. The march suddenly stops when the warden scouting ahead screams, “Goblins! Too man-” and is cut short. All convicts begin with their hands bound(a simple rope tying them together), and do not possess their weapons. They are allowed their armor due to the danger of monsters in the tunnels and because it would slow them if they attempted to escape. Maximillian Your prep for the Imperial Heist had been thorough, so you recognize the seedy warden of the gagged prisoner as a member of the Imperial Left Hand, one of the Empress’ own assassins. As soon as the wardens begin shouting he and his prisoner disappear in a puff of smoke. This leaves you out of the line of sight of anyone but that odd, slow wizard. Marisa You are near the front of the group. You see the wardens looking to a Dwarven cleric for leadership, and hear a commotion behind you. Jarl Ozruk The Rations had been meager and to compare the drinks on hand to piss would be an insult to piss. Still, Jarl had gotten along well enough with some of the wardens. When the commotion started, one of them looked appraisingly in his direction. Dr. Douglass Dangerous Dehydration was beginning to become a concern when the march stopped. A cloud of smoke appeared around your position and you felt yourself being pulled away from the rest of the group. Holvar Rockfist Holvar drew the short length of rope, and was thus chosen to return to the surface to lead those whose tour had ended back, and then to bring the new convicts and wardens back down. Once the goblins appear, the wardens all look to you for orders. Avon Morgan As a volunteer Avon is considered a warden, though nobody seems keen to make conversation or even stay too close to the odd wizard. Avon trails slightly behind the rest of the group, and when the shout is heard he is the farthest from it. I took some liberties setting this up for you all but everything from here is on you.

Dr. Dangerous Dr. Dangerous decided quickly to play along with whomever staged this little escapade. After all, his situation literally could not get any worse. He could already feel the effects of dehydration, but his extensive knowledge told him that he'd be dead long before he had a chance to fully dehydrate. Unless he could find a way to bypass or undo the effects of the spell he would aspirate long before then. So, looking on the bright side whatever this was meant things were looking up. The good doctor is gonna go with the flow on this one. quote:Dr. Douglas Dangerous Valhawk fucked around with this message at Mar 25, 2013 around 23:16 |

Avon Morgan, HP:19/19, Armor:1, +d4 Damage, -1 ongoing to Cast a Spell Avon unsheathes his dagger with his left hand and begins to weave magical sharpness into it's blade. The tunnel is too tight to be able to rely on staying at range so he decides that preparing for the imminent close combat is prudent. Casting Magic Weapon: 2d6+2 10 After enchanting his weapon, Avon moves towards the front of the formation with a crouched jog that somewhat resembles a spider walking on two feet. He stops a little before reaching the vanguard and hangs back to act as a reserve or provide magic support as needed.

Maximilian HP 14, Armor 1, Damage d8, XP 0, Coin 10 "poo poo." Maximilian had seen that face before. Last time one of the left hand came after him, he ended up setting a quarter of the city Bellvue on cover to cover his escape. He know they would be sending someone for him, but he didn't expect it to be this soon. Or this professional. When the odd looking wizard goes loping forward, he steps sideways and disappears into the shadows of the tunnel to try and get his bonds loose. Luckily this was just some thick but ratty rope. No problem. Elvish chain, now that were bindings that took some work to get out of. Rubbing his wrists, he waits to see if the opportunity to acquire a weapon will present itself. Defy Danger(DEX) 2d6+2 = 9 I feel like getting out of being tied up would be a trick of the trade for a theif. Let me know if I can't do it. Tricks of the Trade 2d6+2=13 quote:

Marisa While her hands will have some blisters from the heat of the burning rope the magical fire itself does not appear to burn flesh directly. The brightness of it distracts and ruins everyone’s eye adjustments to the dark. You hear echoing laughter in the distance. A few cries of witchcraft come from around you. A bad thing happens. Dr. Dangerous You are led to a small alcove. A flash of light from back in the tunnel gives enough light to show that your personal seedy-looking warden is your captor. He talks in a whisper. “Thanks for coming along with me there. Very cooperative. I’ll give you the choice, then: Am I going to cut your throat or just pinch your nose? Either way the Empress sends her regards.” He wiggles a dagger in one hand and repeats a pinching motion with his thumb and forefinger with the other. Avon Morgan Most of the Wardens up front are still rubbing their eyes. The Cleric Holvar seems unaffected, but the Wardens seem ready to cut down the Mage who just burned off her bindings as well as the rambling, murderhappy Dwarf. Holvar Rockfist Goblins, generally poorly armed, scavenged or crudely made weapons. They are a nuisance but their hit-and-run raids are not a threat within the mining colony’s borders though they seem to occupy other parts of the mining tunnels. They should be charging into sight any second now.  Roughly a dozen of the little bastards block your way, their little eyes shining greedily. Jarl Ozruk The Warden mutters to the other one. “He actually WANTS to face a bunch of goblins? Has to be a madman, or berzerker.” The other prisoners shrink back from the bloodthirsty dwarf. Maximilian The ropes come undone easily, Maximilian could have spent the next hour going into detail about how easy it was, if he had anyoneto carouse with down here. The only loose weapons around seem to be stones that litter the ground.

Dr. Dangerous The Doctor was momentarily confused, this all seemed like an awful lot of work to kill him. Regardless of the reason, however, he had no intention of dying. It was then that the shine from the assassins neck struck his eye. The fool! He must have taken the device without realizing what it was. No doubt he thought it a pretty little trinket, but the Hypnotic Emitter Periapt is anything but a simple decorative piece. Now the device he had constructed one afternoon on a whim had become the key to his survival. Acting quickly, he lurches forward, while at the same time jumping in order to allow him to bring his hands to the front. Quickly he snatches the device, small enough to fit in still bound hands, points it at the assassin and hits the activator. Intending to put the man into a deep trance.

Avon Morgan, XP: 1, HP: 19/19, Armor: 1, +d4 Damage, -1 ongoing to Cast a Spell The cohesion of the wardens seems to be disintegrating rapidly. Avon doesn't think anyone is going to listen to him, but he still tries to salvage the situation. "Shouldn't we ... be killing ... goblins ... right now? You can ... worry about ... possible escapees ... later!" His voice is loud and clear, though monotone and carrying a strange cadence. To try to accentuate his point Avon points at the nearest goblin with his right hand and then swings his fingers towards the right. Unfortunately, instead of summoning an invisible force to crush the goblin against the right hand wall of the tunnel, his magic fizzles. Casting Magic Missile: 2d6+1 6 Also my magic missile is kind of a weaker version of the magic used in the Saruman vs. Gandalf fight in the LotR movies.

Dr. Dangerous The would-be assassin’s eyes glaze over and his body, while not falling over, becomes passively limp. There is an uncertain amount of time for Dr. Dangerous to do whatever he intends to do. Avon Morgan The greenish-brown goblin points at you as it rushes forward against the magical...breeze. It plants its spear in the ground and vaults over a warden distracted by Jarl’s attempts to...tighten the ropes around his wrists, apparently. The goblin chitters what is presumably a threat in its foul tongue. Jarl Ozruk The ropes tighten around your wrists considerably while extending the length of the rope between your hands a little.. You feel them begin to go numb as you see a goblin land next to the odd Wizard. I suppose -1 to anything involving your hands until you get that rope cut. Holvar Rockfist A few of the goblins show an interest in your glowing weapon and brandish their spears at you, looking for an opening to stick you with them.

Dr. Dangerous Dr. Dangerous first, uses the dagger the assassin dropped to the ground to cut his bindings. Then, his hands now free, he quickly searched the assassin and much to his surprise found several more of his devices as well as some other things he had been carrying before hand. Now satisfied that he's taken all there is to take, the doctor gets right down to work. He needs to solve the problem of his mouth having been sealed shut by magic. The flesh had been essentially fused, behind the wall of skin the rest of his jaw and its muscles were unaffected. He could go through with merely cutting himself a new mouth, but that lacked the elegance a genius mind like his own could provide. Rather, it would be better to quickly construct a directed arcane matrix disrupter. The anti-magic devices had been a useful weapon for his automatons against imperial war wizards and he should be able to reverse the effects of the spell. Rummaging through the person of the unresisting assassin, Dr. Dangerous quickly had the device constructed. It was still rather crude, and would only work once before the jury-rigged bypass blew the ether coils. However passing the machine might be, it would serve his purpose, after all he didn't have two mouths in need of de-fleshing. So, ready at last, he throws the switch. Jury Rig(a machine to dispel the silence magic): 2d6+2 9 It'll work, but only for one use.

Dr. Dangerous The assassin’s eyes begin to refocus and he shakes his head as the device goes off. His skin begins to take on a pale leathery hue as he runs off into the darkness, footsteps echoing softly as his skin changes hue in the shadows. The sounds of battle echo nearby. You have regained everything you had on your sheet plus a dagger and a rapier. Could you put a general description of each gadgets function in your first post as well? Holvar Rockfist The Wardens to either side of you parry spear-thrusts and cut down a goblin each themselves. The rest of the goblins seem to be deciding whether to charge or run off, their chittering echoing off the tunnel walls. Jarl Ozruk Crack! Crunch! The Goblin is thoroughly tenderized. You see a familiar gleam in the distance, the axe known to you as Torment. The goblin holding it is trying to urge its kin to attack the front line again. Marisa The Wardens grow even more agitated at your “witchcraft” They point their weapons at you. Avon Morgan “And this one’s a Warlock!” “Might be a Necromancer, they’re pale too right?” The Wardens are obviously taken by the anti-magic Imperial propaganda. “Anyway I knew there was something off about you!” Maximilian A crude arrow hits you before you can even get to the front line. It was probably intended for the magic users, who have their own troubles besides. Four...Three damage?

Avon Morgan, XP: 1, HP: 19/19, Armor: 1, +d4 Damage, -1 ongoing to Cast a Spell Avon is thoroughly surprised by the ignorance and uselessness of the wardens. "Are ... you seriously telling ... me ... that you've never ... seen ... the uniform ... of a graduate of ... THE IMPERIAL COLLEGE OF WIZARDRY! ... And shouldn't ... you be helping with ... these ... goblins, the prisoners ... have done ... more to fight ... them off than ... you!" Exasperation shows clearly through even the odd cadence of his monotone voice. Seeing the thief get winged by an arrow, Avon decides that the wardens are clearly going to get themselves killed by arrows while standing around being useless if he doesn't do something about the remaining archers. A shooting match without cover is going be hazardous and take too long and the goblins are already preparing for a second volley, so Avon figures that the most expedient way to stop the archers is to close the distance by charging low to the ground and diving below any arrows they manage to get off. Having made his decision, Avon breaks into an extremely low, nigh horizontal sprint straight towards the goblin archers, with only his forward momentum keeping him from falling. Once he reaches the archers, he plans to seize the foremost archer by the throat, bear it down with his momentum and stab it in the eye. Defying Danger with + Dex: 2d6+1 9 If I have to choose between not reaching the goblins or getting hit, I'll choose to get hit.

Hack and Slash: 10 Damage(1d10+1d6) = 3 Um... Take THAT! Holy crap, I guess I impaled the wobbly upper-arm flesh! It's the drat crap-goblin spear's fault!

He says to no-one in particular, merely enjoying the sensation of speaking once more. Then, the rush of the moment over, he suddenly recalls he had not eaten or drunk anything for over two days. So while the battle raged, he broke out some of the rations he had and chowed down in a highly undignified manor. Once he wasn't on the verge of dehydrating he would figure out what his next act would be. The Doctor is just chilling and enjoying a nice meal, due to once more having a mouth.

Holvar Rockfist HP 21, Armor 1, Load 6/11, XP 1 The Jarl's plea distracts him and before he knows it, he's on the ground, goblins moving to strike. But Holvar seems undaunted and gets up, bringing his hammer up from the ground to strike a goblin on the chin. He knows the other one will get a hit in with a spear but does not care. Pain is nothing to him. Hack & Slash at 2d6+1=8. Damage at 1d6+1d4=4.

Jarl Ozruk HP: 25, Armor: 2, Load: 8/14, Damage: 1-10, XP: 3, Hold: 1 Jarl grins an intense, humorless grin. With both the goblin's hands trying to pry his fingers from its neck, that means he's dropped the axe! Jarl lifts up the gobber and quickly scans the floor. He then brings the goblin's head down Hack and Slash: 6 Brickabrack!

Marisa "Okay yeah. I'm tired of you now. Time Stop!" Marisa casts a spell to stop time around the three goblins. She's starting to get tired, not used to casting all these spells so quickly. Time Stop! (+INT): 2d6+2 8 I choose -1 ongoing to Int and draws attention to myself.

Maximilian HP 11/14, Armor 1, Damage d8, XP 2, Coin 10 "Son of a ..." Maximilian drops the spear and ducks back under cover, trying to get a better read on the situation. Discern Realities 2d6+1= 5 This is going to be a long fight at this rate. I'm guessing by four...three damage you mean I take 4 damage less my 1 armor?

Avon Morgan Caught up close with a bow, the goblin jumps on you and proceeds to tear off a piece of your robes, slowly. It seems everyone else is moving so much faster, especially the goblins behind the archers who are scurrying off into the darkness. No Damage but you’ve been caught in the Time Stop. Holvar Rockfist The goblin struck falls backward, its head going slightly farther. As expected, a spear jabs you from the side. You see Jarl struggling with the goblin that knocked you down. Three damage Jarl Ozruk The Goblin’s claws dig deeply into your exposed wrists as it makes what are presumably threats in its language. Vicious ones by the sounds of it and what might be a heavily accented dwarvish slur. Four damage.Your wrists are taking a beating today. Marisa Your spell hits the last goblin, and Avon as well. Will he accept the friendly fire as a mistake or will he turn against you? Either way half the wardens move ahead against the goblins and the rest begin to close in around you. How do you react? Maximilian The fight rages around you and hardly any sense or reason can be made of it. Yes. Four less armor.
