Gameplay - The Dragon Who Took Too Little

Ruby relents, deciding they are getting nowhere at this rate. "Fine, have fun up here." She tosses Hasan the shell and heads for the water, only looking back briefly to see if her seemingly newfound apathy for him has convinced him to follow after.

OOC:

It's probably best you do this Qralloq, who knows how long we'd go on for.

Hasan cannot bring himself to do it. His fears get the better of him as he drops the conch onto the bank. "I ... I can't.." he begins backing away from the water.

Hehsh simply shakes his head and dives after taking off his robes

Ruby and Hehsh swim down into the hole underwater. It is dark, turgid, agitated. By the river flow? No.

As you pass from the sunlit realm, you see a number (less than 10) of what look to be corrupted mermen attempting to break through a rocky portcullis that bars the way. They appear to have been engaged for a long time, and you can see scratches and chips in various spots. They currently have a long tree branch and are attempting to pry the bars apart. It seems to be working.

They haven't seen you yet, what do you do?

OOC:

regret my choice to make a lightning themed spell caster.

Hehsh will attempt to whisper to Ruby. "Do you think these are the River people?"

OOC:

OH! that would be excellent you take 1/2 dmg right :D

"They look a little...corrupted to me. Don't look too friendly to me though." Ruby whispers back, getting her staff ready, just in case. "Should we stop them? I feel like we're witnessing the middle of something."

OOC:

Any checks I can do to gain some discernment?

Aug 27, 2019 10:47 pm

For free, they are trying to break into the place. For more information, an Intelligence (Nature) or a Wisdom (Perception) check would be appropriate.

Perceptive powers go-go.

Qralloq sent a note to somebox

"I think...I'm right." Ruby nods as she peers down at them. "Merrow, they're trying to bust in there. That's definitely bad."

What, make stealth checks? Could I be so cruel? Yes. Yes I can.

Cross post, never mind.

Leroy Jenkins declares initiative, his acid orb slamming into one of the Merrow, it hisses in pain, badly hurt.

Initiative rolls from everyone please, and Perception checks as well from surface dwellers.

"So you say you were sent on this quest then." Hasan says trying to keep a moderate distance from the river bank. Hasan asks the newcommer.

Ruby almost wishes she could stop Hehsh, to develop a quick plan and get the jump on them, but noooooooo. Still ,whats done is done, so instead she'll have to fight.

The merrows rush toward the surprise attackers, but they can't all fit into a good ganking. Harpoons poke at you.

Ruby pushes an incoming stab away, but Hehsh gets hit for 5 damage.

Hasan is unaware of this unfolding drama.

Each of you are up.

Harpoon at Ruby - (1d20+5, 1d10+3)

1d20+5 : (10) + 5 = 15

Harpoon at Hehsh - (1d20+5, 1d10+3)

1d20+5 : (11) + 5 = 16
