When Kobolds Fly -- 012

[TheZebraShakes™]

Sar moves in, determined to help his allies in this battle despite the fact that he is unable to shoot with them all in his way. (Aid = success)

Strom (no post)

Corvus attempts to move into the fray, but because his allies have cornered the creature, there is no unoccupied ground to stand and fight.

Though wounded, Pandoro decides to stay and fight as is his way. He quickly drops spear and torch, opting for his greatsword, though before drawing it, he speaks a quick prayer to Kord.

He brings the weapon down upon the monster. Just as he is about to miss the fell creature and strike nothing but the stone floor of the chamber, Sar makes a few swift gestures and shouts to distract the creature and throw it off guard.

Pandoro's attack hits and with the aid of his spell, the fiend is taken down in a heap of nastiness.

The torchlight extinguishes.

Our heroes find themselves alone in the darkened chamber with nothing but the dead creature and the remains of a skeleton donning a tattered robe to keep them company.

-Any further actions in this room?
-What is the new light source and who is responsible for it?

-Move on up the stairs?
-Go back to explore the other chamber that was passed over in favor of taking the secret passageway?m

Pandoro stands there for a moment blinking in the dark.

"Thanks Sar. I don't think I could have survived another flurry of attacks from that clump of teeth and fangs."

Pandoro tries to light the fallen torch. If that doesn't work, takes out an new one and tries to light that.

Next, Pandoro mutters 3 cure minor wound prayers in succession.

"So what now? I'm out of cure spells, by the way. It's nothing but dirt and guts from now on."

"Hmm. Either we rest or press on...Resistance will no doubt increase the further into the lair. I say we we find a defendable position and rest. We can all take watches to ensure we all sleep well enough"

[Lin]

Needing neither healing or a light source, Strom fails to see a problem. "You guys need me to carry you on your backs?" Strom offers. "Because we can't stop now. Those shifty bastards will likely stab our necks out while we sleep!"

(If you're not dying, you're not trying. With that in mind, what's the decision?)

[MaestroXC]

Balen is grumpy about making a fool of himself swinging like a ninny at the blob-thing. "I say we move on, explore the upstairs. If this is really a secret chamber, then maybe the kobolds don't know about it."

He shuffles around the room, examining the stonework and any other contents of the room, stopping to peer closely at the skeleton on the throne.

Sar scratches his head.
"Who knows, who knows. They're tricky little things...
All right, let's check out the upstairs."
