To Prove D&D Exists for Echolon

Quote from MidnightPlat >>

OOC: Have the doors been set so far at regular intervals?  Trying to figure out at what range we should drop the shelter/bulwark.  Do we want to keep it fair range for ranged spell and weapon response or make it more a rally point for the cunning actions to be able to reach and rally up with the rest of the party when the breachers (likely rogues) open the door and decide "holy crap! run away!" when the door's breached? 

 The doors are 10 feet apart, the hallway straight.

There is no magic other than you own.

OOC: closer quarter than I thought, does the shelter still make sense, team?

OOC: I'm not unconvinced we aren't breaking into a blast furnace, or a magma tube.  Anything that gives us even one round of a chance to avoid being holiday roasts is something I'm in favor of.

OOC: Where? Behind the first doorway 20 feet back from the current obstacle?

OOC: I mean if we wanted to be real clever, wouldn't outside and to the side of the first door be the safeest place to put shelter?  That's just 30'.

OOC: Think Midnight's got the right idea, no further away than a character can get with a Dash action.  We need Elyona for the ram, and Ilyara canm be up front with her for immediate support.  So no more than fifty feet away, and ideally 25 if we can get it but Midnight's not wrong about getting out of the line of quite-possibly-literal fire.

*Responding for Elyona as she needs rest*

Elyona takes a few steps back, runs forward and slams into the third door *WHANG!* The door bursts open and you are assaulted with a wave of hot sulfurous air.

Before you lies a huge chamber aglow with orange and yellow light from a flow of lava below. There is a bridge of sorts over the flow leading through the room.

Something similar to this:

OOC:

There are only 2 open doors so far, so it’s 🚪 10 ft 🚪 10 ft 🚪.  That’s only 20 feet back, just as I stated. Even if there is an “off to the side,” that’s still only 20 feet back. And in order to actually be “off to the side,” the corridor would have to be 45 feet across because of the 10’ radius of the hut:

I think we’ll be lucky to squeeze it into the hallway at all, something like that👆might be pushing it. From whit it sounded like, this👇is more what we have to work with:

OOC: In order to be "off-bore" you'd need to put the hut near the busted goblin rotator or in Henry's room.

 OOC: With that door now already bust open, I don’t think it much matters anymore. That whole thing was to protect us from whatever was going to happen when the door got busted. Since nothing happened…. 🤷‍♂️

OOC: Is the picture just to give us a sense of the somewhat bridge and lighting from the lava flow or should Tommary be freaking out that someone managed to get a damn moon down here?

OOC: That's no moon, Tommary

OOC: i am so finding the reactor port that will bring this place down.

Quote from Yurei1453 >>

OOC: That's no moon, Tommary

 You are correct. It is a sphere floating in the distance about 100 feet away. Within the sphere you see what might be a sword.

"If that's the famed lost blade Protontorpedo, dibs!" Tommary declares now standing by Ilyra and Elyhona looking over the flamescape, "Let's hope this is a dryer heat than the mud room, or at least dryer than almost every other part of this mountain so far."

“Wouldn’t it have to be? So… what’s the plan now?”

From the doorway, Tommary will endeavor to give the bridge a good look over to suss it's stability and also see if he can reckon whether it leads a clear path to the glowing or probably not but possibly containing protontorpedo.  Survival 17

OOC: Does the room currently seem safe to cross?

• Toots’ Wisdom (Survival): 21 

🤞 No whammy!

OOC: Toots and Tommary come to same conclusion, so I think it's fair to say we're on stable ground ... :-D
