Ch. 1 - The Keep on the Borderlands

Given past recent pas events, maybe it's better if we are at full capacity before delving deeper?

9HP, biznitch!

You should be able to see this on the map but, as a reminder, there are three exits from this hallway. You can go north into uncharted dungeon, back south into the main hall, or east into the magically-darkened secret hall. Turn 22 will begin when the party starts moving again or takes a mechanical action (not RP).

Two questions for our GM: First, does 'Adventuring Equipment' include rope? Second, have we looted the bodies of our fallen for coins, gear, armor and weapons? Because if not... I suspect -that- is happening.

Overall, sounds like we're for the secret passage!

1. Rope is adventuring gear for the purpose of encumbrance, but it's also an individual item. 2. Kraagor took the money off the corpses, but I kept the actual gear in vague terms. I'll print the full inventories below and you can pick and choose:@kwll it looks like you deleted Farem since I can't see his sheet. Do you remember what was in his inventory? I remember there was no money.

I believe Kraagor pocketed all the money but gave the thieves' tools to Delfarious, but you can all decide how to split the stuff up. I don't think anyone had a will (which would still only be legally binding if you got caught). In any case, the secret passage post is coming soon!

Kraagor would have taken the money, lantern, oil, and tinderbox. He would have left the arms and armor, though may be considering bringing it back to the Keep.

For marching order I recommend Kraagor, Darlene, Fenna, Delfarious.

As promised, beginning Turn 22 with a wandering encounter roll. Before reading on, please decide how much slack to leave between each PC. The party has potentially 100' of rope if they use both Kraagor's and Ezra's. I will assume 5' each unless someone corrects me.

Couple of things — before we went into the passage, Delfarious added half a pint of oil to the lantern, adding 12 turns of use, making for 14 remaining. With as dark as it is in there, he’d recommend that someone else carry the other one — from one of the PC corpses. If people have torches, we might all want a light source. (Since we are not all bunched up.)

Regarding the rope, a 5’ gap between each of us sounds about right, but that’s also a reason to carry at least one more light source.

Question: for mapping purposes, how far due east to we get in this tunnel?
