Hello (again), friends old and new!

I'm taking control over Manaku, the red-eyed Elf. Some of you may remember me as original player of Sasar, the poor old M-U who took spear to chest and somehow survived that encounter... apparently Grim Reaper managed to get him eventually.

A train got him. I got the mule.

In reply to Brother Brodd (msg # 6):

Glad that she survived :)

So, I read "The Kobold Kaverns" thread trying to catch up...should I make a Saving Throw too?

In reply to Manaku (msg # 7):

He cast his Shield spell, which worked for the last rockslide, so I assume he's safe.

In reply to DM (msg # 8):

Cool thanks.

Welcome back. Let's kill some basilisk!

Hey, been super busy, will try to post tomorrow, likely to patch up Manaku and Dwarghar... ;-)

Good to see you again guys.

Coming into middle of action I'm somewhat confused of our positioning...and targets.
- The whole party is still somewhat together, right?
- There are kobolds (or someone) throwing rocks from above, right? so are there others elsewhere nearby?

In reply to Manaku (msg # 12):


The party has split into three groups (DM groaning) as listed in the turn counter thread. Manaku, Alietra and Harald stayed put. Manaku put up a magic shield while Harald distracted the kobolds with his taunting verses.

Dwarghar, in a moment of dwarven greed, scooped up the box they uncovered and ran up a switchback with two others to surprise the kobolds.

The other three immediately forged ahead to avoid the same fate as Pock, but has stalled to wait for the rest of the party.

Dwarghar's party actually thought up was the way out, but is just rolling with it now.

Dwarghar’s party ...
that’s nice

In reply to DM (msg # 13):

Ow, I've missed whole turn counter thread, thanks :)

Since Einhard and Brodd are desginated Caller and Second Caller, the decision is settled.

Can we at least agree that we carried out Regdoc's suggestion before moving on?

>"If we don't go down there," Regdoc said as he came huffing and puffing up to the group, "then we'd best secure it from this side so that we don't get more of... whatever was made up of that blue mess over there, coming at as from behind should we encounter a basalisk. Opportunistic little beasties in my experience."<

My character doesn't have a hammer and spikes, but if we could have spiked the grate shut, that would put us in a much better position to continue towards eminent death.

Amalrik does have spikes ...

Heheheheheh, such an optimist! I'll heal you, didn't realize you were hurt that bad.

Do we have some kind of marching order established and listed somewhere?

Manaku, we did, but our roster has changed a bit.

Brodd, please roll on the Dice Roller for the Curing spell's effect.

What? I couldn't remember, d6?

In reply to Brother Brodd (msg # 23):

d6+1

Thanks, I wasn't sure, rolled, 14:47, Today: Brother Brodd rolled 4 using 1d6+1.  cure lt. wnds.

In reply to Manaku (msg # 21):

Not any more. We're too chaotic to stay in formation.

Brodd and Daisy follow behind Einhard. I don't know where anyone else is.

In reply to Brother Brodd (msg # 27):

I'm standing right behind you.

Off Topic: I bought a PDF of Gangbusters B/X on DriveThruRPG today, great work in a small package. I'm going to run a game on here, as Four Aces Detective Agency. You're all welcome to apply!
