Stealth 18
Gerrack stays hidden in the shadows, spear at the ready to stab this newcomer from behind. He watches him carefully, waiting for the others to make the first move.
Casmir walked through the passage, shield at ready, warhammer in hand. He didn't try to be silent, but wasn't careless either.
As he emerged into the large room, he found himself at the bottom of a crevasse, looking at a mixed group on the higher ground. Some of them looked like the ruffians he was coming after, so he challenged them: "Drop your weapons, or face Tyr's justice!"
Gerrack‘s spear lowers, and he comes out of the shadows. „H-he‘s not a B-brand,“ he tells the others. The. he sketches a polite bow to the newcomer. „Greetings,b- brother of the Triad.“ He puts his wrists up as he bows, clearly displaying the ragged red wrappings, symbols of Illmater, as he does so. „W-we seek to s-stop the Red B-brandits here... do y-you as well?“
Perception: 21
Casmir sees the marks on the aarakocra's wrists and his eyes widen in surprise. He lowers his weapon and says "Greetings to you, fellow traveler. Looks like we're going in the same direction. Can we walk together and find strength in numbers?"
(OOC: good thing the markings were clearly displayed, with that Perception roll Casmir can barely notice the walls ;))
Misty glances to Sildar. "Do you know this man?" She asks Sildar, nodding to the new person. Turning to the newcomver she slips her rapier back into its sheath. "We are here to clear out this place of bandits." She nods to Sildar. "He is the town's representative along on this venture." She shrugs. "If you wish to aid us here, then we are more than willing to have the extra sword."
(This is a little broken up, but i wanted to respond to a few things with the post.)
"My name is Casmir", he says, turning to Sildar. "The good priests at the temple of Tyr would vouch for me".
"Unfortunately I don't have a sword, but I'd be glad to lend my hammer" he adds to Misty, without the slightest hint of irony. And after a pause, gesturing to his back "oh, and my javelins. I have javelins too".
(OOC @DragonDenn: hope the birthday boy has a blast today!)
Gniff chuckles childishly, "This one is great, you sure can join us. I am Gniff, this other halfling is Branch. The one who had that pointy sowrd is Misty and our representative is Sildar. Gimble is around here too somewhere but he comes and goes with the shadows, if you know what I mean." Gniff is all smiles as he looks Casmir up and down.
Sildar turns to Misty. Sildar: (to Misty) "No, can't say i've met him before." Sildar then turns towards Casmir. Sildar: (to Casmir) "A well meaning adventurer is certainly welcome. I am just tagging along anyways. i wish i had as much authority as my traveling companions say."
Sildar: (to the party) "Shall we get a move on? we can't stay put for too long."
(OOC: @ everyone, let me know when you are ready to continue to the room.)

"So,"Gniff continues, "we are in the process of slowly moving through this basement area. Why don't you stay near Misty and the others while Gimble and I take a looksie in this north room." He gives a cheery smile and turns to the room the were approaching and begins to sidle forwards.
"Nice to meet you all" beams Casmir, slowly walking up out of the crevasse towards the group. "Seems you have a head start on me, I'll catch up best as I can. What do we do now?"
"G-Gerrack," Gerrack mumbles under his breath as an introduction, barely audible as he slinks back into the shadows, his daily dose of bravery for the moment having been spent. Seeing the others ready to move, he grips his spear tightly and does his best to slip back into the shadows.
Stealth: 23
Misty gives the newguy a nod and then turns to the others. "Let's do this then." She says and moves to follow towards the northern room.
Gimble steps into the light, but keeping his daggers in hand. “Alright Gniff, lets see what we see...we shouldn’t be lingering to long. Someone may have heard his announcement to the world.” And Gimble turns to look around the north room.
Perception 15
Casmir stays with the non-stealthed group and watches the entrances to the large room, alert for any movement there.
the party enters the room, it appears that no bandits are in the room. there are few crates and barrels in the room.
Sildar: (to the party) "Thankfully empty. Keep your eyes open all the same."
(OOC: for those that are searching the room, give me an investigation check.)
(OOC: @ everyone, where to next?)

Gerrack will help someone who is more skilled than he at searching the room, mostly by being jumpy and watching their back so they can do their own check unimpeded (and with advantage).
Gimble Investigation 9
Misty's passive investigation is 15. She will take advantage of the 'help' action.
Active Investigation: 22
