Descending the Temple Depths (OOC)

See. It helped. You literally doubled your HP. :)

Tripled actually....

Or is my roll my new HP?

Yes, that is your HP. That is why there is a possibility of your HP going down (if you had 2 and rolled a 1, for instance). Dice are always risky.

Deoring: Are you trying to control the situation and keep the skeleton from acting, or are you attacking?

It sound like the former, which we can treat as a Defend action. If so, rolling with CON makes sense as you are touching the skeleton, even if just with your boot.

Yes, aware that his sword won’t be effective, Deoring’s just trying to keep the skeleton from getting up.

When they emerge, you would definitely be able to notice them. For now the question was about whether anyone notices the faint sounds of them starting to reassemble so you can do something before they can emerge. It does not look like it.

Absent any obvious reemergence of that threat (though Rook's boasting makes it tempting to activate them now:), is Deoring going over to try get his sword alight? If so describe touching Albert's staff the resultant ignition of your sword and what that feels like and what that does for your 'faith'.

Rook: When you talk of 'flashing blade', do you draw your dagger?

If so, how do you react when you notice that it is glowing with divine light?

Hopefully Raynor does not take you literally and show you all the remaining evil... looking at that will make you go blind. :)

I think a roll is in order. It will also set for us how far the approaching foes are and such.

Roald: With Deoring backing off there is not a 'safe opportunity' to attack. You can still make an attack action and roll the dice, but that has all the normal risks. You only have 2 HP, so some caution is appropriate.

I rolled a 12! Raynor smiles upon me this day

Can we decide what the NPC's do? Cause, with the gathered info about the threats, this seems like the perfect situation for a captain of the guard to hand out some tactical orders.

Asha is out of action until someone instils her with the courage to face her fear.

The captain is shivering on the floor (consequence of player rolls), but will likely react and follow suit if Deoring determines how to power up his sword.

If the players want to come up with a strategy and then have an NPC issue such orders, that is fine. The GM won't be using them to take charge.

Yeah, that's what I would want to do.
I could have Albert say the same things, but it makes sense to me that the captain takes charge. She also has a level of authority, either directly as 'the boss' or because she has been trained to be authoritative.

What I meant was... When enough time has passed to reach Deoring, let me know and I'll roll for an attack.
Just because of getting from one place to another takes some time.
😉
I see now that wasn't very clear.

I though that might have been what you meant. Which is why I added the word 'safe'. With Deoring moving away, would Roald still want to put himself in the thick of it, knowing that he probably can't take another blow?

Waiting for others to back you would be sensible as well. But we don't have to wait before posting, just say so and we can include the others before we work out the consequences.

You are right, it would be wise to wait for the others.

You might not have to wait 'in character', though. Presumably they are all coming to finish this off... until Albert adds the scattered ones back into the mix.

Oh man, my bad @Rezart I didn’t realize that Roald was down to 2 hp or that Deoring heading toward Albert would disadvantage Roald. It seemed the skeletons are slow to get up, if fast once they are on their feet.

I also assumed that Albert and Rook would head towards the action and Deoring would meet them halfway, so that we’d all be relatively close to the one skeleton that is currently active, in case Roald needs support.

Understood.
Yes, exactly his intent. Do I have consent to do this from Albert / @TheGenerator?

Must be... given how much conversation we are having between 'rounds'. :)
That is reasonable enough. We can probably make that happen. Then Roald can decide.
