Chapter 4 - Cragmaw Castle

Gerbo leaps forward to stab again, before disengaging and hopping back behind Kerisha out of range.

Taking a step back away from the Drow, Kerisha is shocked and slightly freaked out as it transforms. She gives a quizzical look to Gerbo, thinking there might be some for of poison on the rapier. It doesnt take long for her rage to push her back to the bloodlust. She charges with the bugbear in her sights, plunging her sword towards her new foe.

Standing there for a second, taking in the scene, Gerbo wipes his rapier on the dead Bugbear and sheaths it. "So...I guess now we tie up the sleeping ones and put the Bugbear on top of them in case they wake up. How long will they stay asleep for?" Gerbo has, for the moment, forgotten about the dwarf.

Even before the Bugbear’s body had hit the ground Karma had turned, racing as fast as his stumpy legs could carry him to the fallen Dwarf. "Uncle, Uncle are you alright?" he says as he examines the fallen Dwarf for injuries.

Confused Karma spins around on the spot, "Uncle where the hell are you, dude?"

"Any second they should arise. If we are going to do something it needs to be now."

Belanor still standing still shakely holding his sword not completely sure how to handle himself. He slowly continues to back into the wall while looking to the 2 hobgob and expecting more.

Belanor didn't register that Karma is looking at the wrong dwarf.

Gerbo moves over to disarm the Hobgoblins and start tying them up with his rope.

Kerisha, can you put the Bugbear on top of the hobgoblins? That should hold them down for a bit if they wake up, right?", he cackles. He begins going through the bodies (living and dead) to look for trinkets. He also looks through any drawers/ containers to see if there's anything of use in the room.

Gerbo exclaims, "Belly, I found your "business reason for being here. Also, a map and potions." With the loot at hand, the prospect of the missing dwarf moves even further from his mind. He takes an even cut of the money (55 sp, 40 ep), 2 potions, and the map before tossing the bag onto the floor for the others to see.

"Huh," Belanor says absently still ready for more intruders."What was that Gerbo," he says finally looking that way. Seeing Gerbo hold/ rummaging through the satchel.As Belanor focuses on what's Gerbo is doing he realizes he still has someone hidden. Sheathing the sword as if that was the action to drop the spell the once invisible dwarf reappears.
"Gents, our injured benefactor, Gundren."

Breathing heavily, Kerisha tries to wipe some of the wolf, Drow and Bugbear blood from her face. As her rage subsides, the aching in her body intensifies. She holds her shoulder, which is throbbing after connecting with the rather solid Drow. She looks to Karma as she drops to a knee catching her breath. She simply grunts as Gerbo suggests lifting the bugbear. But she is too tired to argue, so she attempts to lift the Bugbear. Soon realising she just doesn't have the energy, she opts for the slightly less graceful, and much slower approach of dragging the limp and rather heavy body over to the hobgoblins.
