The temple is a shrine to Lolth. There are a set of ensorceled jewels that adorn the spider motif. It's also where the junior priestess, Asha, lives. More often than not, she's there. Sometimes attended, sometimes not. More than that, I've not been able to get more information out of the guards. I've only really spent time here as a slave. I'm to be taken to Menzobarranzen to be executed for my crimes. As for the Mistress, I know she's a full Priestess of Lolth. She is VERY dangerous. She has the ability, at a minimum, to consort with Demons. Her magic will far outstrip yours, be assured. You can hear him scoff, even through the mental link.

Demons, well now that is certainly dangerous. It looks like getting your hammer back will be even more dangerous Eldrith, but I did say I would do it.
OOC:
What do we know about guards to the cafeteria ? Or how it usually was when we cleaned it or cooked there ?

OOC:
From the 2-6 days or so you guys have been here, you've noticed that aside from your work detail and the two guard posts, there really aren't guards on duty anywhere else. Just the drow that are routinely walking around doing drow stuff. They don't seem to go armed when not on duty (at least not with swords and shields, you don't know about their crossbows).

I could scout things out, anyone have a magic that can make my skin black ? After all I have the look in clothing but not skin tone. I could see what the food team might face and signal you to let you know. Then the mission to the temple will probably need our most powerful warriors, perhaps even you, your Majesty.

Dustin looks for anything to disguise his skin tone.

You don't find much of anything that would be successful in achieving a disguise that would pass. With the few things you found, you'd end up looking like someone in blackface.

That said, if you want to try it (maybe the drow you come across first are absolutely stupid or roll critical failures on their perception), there is some ink in a well on a shelf as well as some ashes from some kind of smoked something in a small dish on the same shelf.

Dustin gives it a shot hoping drow see in black and white like himself with dark vision.

Ash around his eyes and the ink used on his face and hands if there are no gloves on the armor.

Disguise, I have disguise skill with the kit but dont know what other things to use. - (1d20+2)

Well guys, how do I look ?
OOC:
Ah Deception is a skill that can be used with it so +3 to the disguise roll for a total of 17 not bad.

Saarith peaks his head down and works very hard to stifle a derisive chortle.

I hope they are deep into their cups when you make your appearance, elf. Otherwise they will surely spot you. Do you understand any Undercommon? That's how they typically speak. They understand elvish well enough, but you'd have to have an exceptional story to fool them. He warns with a chuckle.

If you feel like you trust me, I may as well go. I'm dead if they catch me, I'm dead if I venture into the Underdark alone. May as well go to see this comedy of errors happen. He says with a sneer.

Loads up his crossbow and will scout out the cafeteria.

Hiding in the mist and sound of the waterfall as much as possible.

As you sneak down the bridge, you see that you have a pathway about 30 feet long, one that is pretty narrow, to get to the platform that the cafeteria is off of. While you hide in the mists, you also notice that to get to the cafeteria, you have to pass by the stalactite that houses both the temple and the chambers of the Priestess.

Secondly, roll me EITHER a d100 or a Fate Dice roll (choose Fate from the dropdown and just use what it defaults to). Your choice.

Excellent, thank you! Additionally, Sarith did come with you. He's doing a commendable job remaining silent with you. He looks to you for leadership as to where you go next.
Dec 5, 2016 11:15 pm
If the cafeteria is empty we raid the food and water bringing them back.
Dec 5, 2016 11:19 pm
You'll need to give me 2 stealth checks to get to the entrance of the cafeteria.

You sneak along the path, making your way along carefully. For the first bit, you are as silent as death itself. Hardly a rock is disturbed as you gracefully glide to the bed in the path. As the wall bends away from you, you round the corner. Unexpectedly, there is a large rock that you stumble over, twisting and dancing your way, desperate not to fall. You end up on your feet, chest heaving. A quick glance tells you no one, save Sarith, witnessed your stumble. With a gulp, you peek inside the open door of the cafeteria. You are in luck! Not only are there no drow in the room, there are also no quaggoths!
Dec 5, 2016 11:39 pm
Quietly, "Alright Sarith let's take all we can and head back to the others."
Dustin will load up with what he can and since there was no one on the way to the cafeteria from the tower he heads back to the tower looking like he belongs.
