The ideas that were being discussed were good and bad. For his part he was content to watch the castle and listen to them talk. Fighting could come soon enough, hopefully soon enough for the dwarf they came to save. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 13,065 Likes: 9 Wobbly Headed Administrator | Wobbly Headed Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 13,065 Likes: 9 | [Chandan is putting on the Redbrand cloak.

"When we are ready to go, with Whisper watching the way forward for me, I will sneak in at the closest spot to the canvas hidden door and head for that canvas. Once there, I will wave or send Whisper to indicate you should all come. Then I will check the door and we will start our assault. We should try to be as quiet as possible and avoid a full frontal battle if possible. Hopefully we can deplete numbers as we go. Does this sound like a plan? And who needs time to replenish magic before we go?" | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,979 Likes: 1 Moderator | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,979 Likes: 1 | OOC: In terms of resource depletion, we'll have started this after a full rest.

Everyone should make a stealth roll when you approach the castle. It'll be opposed by look-out perception rolls. If you do something to gain advantage, let me know and if I deem it credible, you'll get that advantage roll. You should also place yourself on the map in Roll20 to indicate where you are going. | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 15,057 Likes: 10 Chaotic Obfuscator Moderator | Chaotic Obfuscator Moderator Joined: May 2009 Posts: 15,057 Likes: 10 | [OOC: Lumi is not stealthy.

Ryssa frowned, looking around at her friends, both old and new. She did not consider herself especially stealthy.

He took two of the dragon cloaks, wrapped one tightly over his otherwise-noisy armor, and wore the second one over it. It would be tricky to fight like that, but it might just stop his armor clinking on the approach.
Kriv Stealth (disadvantage) AJ rolled d20+1,d20+1 and got 15, 8
If the precaution cancels out the disadvantage 15, if not, 8

He had hoped for a bit of a rest to re-coup his shape changing powers, but it seems that everyone is agreed to move ahead now. Not wanting to waste another shape-change that could have made getting inside a whole lot easier, he takes a cloak to try and disguise himself. He will plan to be the last to approach knowing his past attempts to be sneaky is not very good at all. It turns out this time is no different when he quickly discovers that the cloak he took his way too big for him as it snags on several pieces of dead wood. This causes him to trip and cuss as he makes his way towards the front door.

Neptune's saying that the party discussed strategy during a full rest, so we're in tip-top condition before starting our approach. Davroar should have recouped all his daily powers.] | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 27,613 Moderator | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 27,613 | (To quote Nep,) OOC: In terms of resource depletion, we'll have started this after a full rest.

Working in conjunction with Whisper to avoid being spotted [OOC does this give advantage?] she starts forward. Must be nerves but she is not as sure footed as usual.

AJ is correct. Davroar's shape change happened AFTER the long rest, so it's the only power used. I am not offering another rest or we'll be doing one after every spell is cast.
MikeD, I made my statement about Jaliera being the only "really stealthy" person because she's approaching the castle separately from others. Bern might be really stealthy, but next to Kriv's clanging along in armor, that group, as a whole, might alert the occupants. Pande, we did break into 2 groups. I need your stealth roll.
Maybe the guard perception rolls will help you make your decision:
Guards Perception Neptune rolled 1d20-1,1d20-1,1d20-1,1d20-1 and got 5, 2, 2, 1
What surprises me is that everyone except for Davroar are approaching the front door (based on how you positioned yourselves in Roll20). Dugan, are you really going to separate yourself from the rest of the group?
Finally, please start using the N-game dice roller. Maybe I need to request the deletion and renaming of the dice rollers. I'll do that after we get through this set of rolls.

Jaliera makes her way to the front doors with little trouble. A short flight of steps leads up to a terrace in front of the main entryway. Past the wreckage of a pair of sundered doors lies a shadowed hall. Round towers loom over the entrance way, with dark arrow slits looking down on the terrace.
She signals to the others and they follow as quietly as they can. The guards behind the arrow slits were paying little attention to the responsibilities of their job. Were it not for Davroar's mishap with his cloak and the reflexive expletive he utters, they would never have decided to get off their collective rumps.
"Who is you?" you all hear a voice call out from behind one of the arrow slits. The sharp tips of arrows can be seen pointed at you. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 27,613 Moderator | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 27,613 | Kriv
An unfortunate circumstance, but not insurmountable. Taking on the tones of a superior addressing his lesser,
"Did it seriously take you this long to see our approach? Dear me, the Spider will be furious when he hears. We have urgent business with the Spider owing to developments in Thundertree. You aren't high up enough in the Spider's confidence to know about it." | | |
