Bennekheb waits for the others to proceed first through the gates, choosing to linger near the rear of their column where she can observe their position and provide protection from behind.

Despite his apparent laziness the day before, Zaggra moves forward slightly ahead of Krazzik as the half-orc takes a forward position in the group. The war cat seems to inherently know when it's time to focus as the Oathbound move into the necropolis, his demeanor going from aloof and noisy to quiet and deadly in the span of a heartbeat.

Krazzik will take a spot at the front of the group with Zaggra slightly ahead (5 foot gap between the cat and the frontline) and center (see below). Both will be actively looking for threats, be it adversaries, traps, dangerous ruins, etc... Z

Jabari will walk next to Krazzik at the front.
It is indeed a fine day for an adventure is it not! he says to Krazzik.
That is a mighty animal you have there. I wouldn't want to make him mad at me, he chuckles.

Sasha has her small whip out from her side, I will lead the way. So hard anyway to see with all you tall some's about. She snaps it a bit. For a halfling Sasha moves rather fast. She keeps up with everyone.

Krazzik nods at Jabari and Sasha as they move up front. "Ah, he only gets mad at those I point to and anything between him and his food. He's too lazy to do otherwise." Zaggra chuffs at Krazzik's last comment and continues padding forward. "But yes, he's saved me a few times more than I care to count."

Cross takes a flank and has a curious eye on everything. She dots notes into her notebook, including a rough map of the necropolis.

Avaline, not one to provide much in the way of feats of arms, nor particularly quick on her feet, stays near the center of the group where she can provide support as necessary.

You pass quickly through the first square, around Pharasma's Needle, and into the streets.
Deeper into the necropolis, passing decrepit buildings in largely good repair despite the centuries, but obviously worn by weather, you come across a group of priests. They hail you in the street as you approach.
"Hail, adventurers. Do you have your token?" They eye you suspiciously, but not hostilely. You can tell that they're checking your gear and belongings, but for what, isn't apparent.

Krazzik stays on alert, ever suspicious of anyone not of the Oathbound. He whispers back to the others, "I thought the adventuring groups were the only ones allowed in the necropolis..."
OOC:
Krazzik will scrutinize the priests to see what god they worship and if they belong here. I'm adding possible rolls to the post ahead of time. Let me know if you want to do skill checks and other rolls another way.Rolls
Perception check - (1d20+6)
(19) + 6 = 25
Knowledge: Religion to identify their diety - (1d20+1)
(20) + 1 = 21
Sense Motive to, well, sense their motives - (1d20+7)
(12) + 7 = 19

Sasha doesn't care to interfere, but does start whistling a priestly toon in a lower volume as she eyes over the priest looking for weapons and such. She is feeling just a bit insecure about them.
Sep 24, 2019 7:21 pm
After a few more moments of scrutiny, Kazzrik's demeanor shifts. "They seem legitimate. Avaline, do you have our token to show them?" he whispers in query.
Sep 24, 2019 7:29 pm
Jabari finds himself wondering if they've found trouble already before they even get to the tomb. He stands ready just in case.
Sep 24, 2019 8:03 pm
Avaline nods to Krazzik and digs in the pocket she'd stored the token in. "Come with me, please?" she whispers back to Krazzik as she moves forward to show the token to the priests. She doesn't move particularly fast on any day, but those familiar with her limping gait likely notice that she's in no hurry to approach, and lets Krazzik stay slightly in front of her.
Sep 24, 2019 8:16 pm
Sasha uses Avaline for a shadow as she tags next to her. Lets see how this goes.

The priests gently accept the token and peer at the rune. He hands it back, asking, "Which site is this for?"
Sep 24, 2019 8:29 pm
Sasha pipes up fast The Tomb of Akhentepi. Not far from here. before any other can answer.
Sep 24, 2019 9:08 pm
The priest nods and they stand aside. "Safe journey, friends. The road is clear most of the way, but keep an eye out. There are dangers about."
They allow you to pass without any further questions.

Sasha smiles. That went well. Lets get moving so we don't have further problems. Rolling stone gathers no moss.
