Re: Below the Guild

In reply to Huey Thumper (msg # 33):

The artificer approaches the construction site and looks over the kobolds'
handiwork.
The corridor has a breach, no doubt caused by whatever had destabilized the
Walls and ceilings of this area. Within the breach, a pile of large stones
connects the flooring of the corridor with that of another corridor some
twenty feet away. The space between is a raw wet cavern, with a small pool
at one end. The kobolds are laying flatter rocks onto their pile, which is
effectively a bridge between the two sections of propper construction.

Accross the way, you can just see an iron gate.
"This is the place."

"This is our part, right, Beard?" The half-ogre hefts his greataxes and steps into the cavern, seeing what there is to see.

After taking a moment to light his headlamp, Ardenas follows Huey into the breach area, warily examining the pool at the end of the room.

"This looks like an unstable area to me -- though I'm no expert."

"Once Ah get this section done, hit be as stable as ye kin find."

There is some kind of decaying mass on the cavern floor, a bit distant from the pool. As you watch, a yard long muntilegged worm approaches the mess.

Re: Below the Guild

Huey doesn't like the look of this. That thing could eat a kobold. He steps up and swings to sever its head. Or whatever is at the front.

OOC: Hit neck (using vermiform chart) for 12 cutting.
08:25, Today: Huey Thumper rolled 12 using 4d6+3. Damage.
08:25, Today: Huey Thumper rolled 6 using 3d6. Greataxe vs worm neck 12-.

In reply to Huey Thumper (msg # 38):

You are currently ten feet above the floor of the cavern where the worm is.
Looking down you can see that the 2yard wide "bridge" is built on top of flooring sections three yards wide that had sunken down like steps. It would
 be fairly easy to climb down to the worm.

Re: Below the Guild

"Hey, that thing could eat one of the kobolds!" Huey heads down the "bridge" to attack the worm.

OOC: Ah, misunderstood.

Ardenas follows a few steps behind Huey -- who looks to have this covered, but backup is rarely a bad thing.

Huey splatters the immature creature, and realizes at the rotting mass is
part of a much larger adult of the species.

Re: Below the Guild

Huey hesitates, and indicates the mass. "Uh, that might be a good thing to burn.

"And maybe not a good thing to touch,"
he adds to Ardenas.

OOC: Wait: Attack something monstrous coming near, reach-2 grip.

Mythos looks over at Oly's mishapen features, and at the gilt badge of rank
he wears.
"Oly, isn't it? If you have proper supplies with you, I would say yes, but we have no formal compact of shares set up, I think we should discuss
that"

Re: Below the Guild

Huey pays no attention to the negotiations. Mythos will work it out with the new person. Instead, he studies the pool.

"Huey, Ardenas, you and myself would get a full share;
the other three are being paid but subject to bonuses out of my share in case
Of unexpected danger or profit. The primary thing I want to do is map out as
 much of the undercity as I can and take note of some of the kinds of traps,
gates and unusual construction."

In reply to Oly (msg # 51):

On realizing that the worm-thing comes in much larger sizes, and considering Huey's suggestion that it might be unhealthy to touch, Ardenas double checks his gloves and readies a crossbow quarrel.

Pointing to the rotting fragments of the adult, "That was a big one, wasn't it?"
