Tests and Trials Game Thread

Jaq looks south at the fallen drow and really, really want to go and check to see if the bastard has his still missing stuff, but he shakes his head and instead heads north in the hallway, using dash and moves north 40 feet and then moves into the doorway of that room.  He'll take a quick scan of the room and then position himself peeking out of the doorway and watching for any problems.

Using cunning action to hide

Stealth: 13

Jaq retraces his steps and returns to one of the rooms used as a cell to hide.

Initiative:

Kroshav (Blessed, Prot. poison) <---
Lurn/Mikram (Blessed)  <---
Joe (Blessed) <---
Cladmir (Blessed) <---
Jaq (Blessed, Prot. poison)
Drow

Cladmir will move up as far as possible while remaining behind Kroshav.  He will also ready his crossbow to shoot any target that presents itself.

Kroshav moves up the the corridor and sticks Sword around it to scout it for him. If nothing, he'll move up his remaining distance and dodge if still nothing.

Lurn keeps advancing onward.  "Let's hope things go better than the first time."

The northern group all move further north, stopping with the turn on the corner in sight and Sword confirms she doesn't see anything alive. Whatever noise there was before to the north has stopped until a single short whistle is heard from that direction. Nothing approaches or makes any other sound that the north party can hear.

((Can I get another perception roll from Jaq please.))

Jaq (Blessed, Prot. poison)<---
Drow

Perception:  13

Jaq doesn't hear anything beyond the scuffing feet of his companions to the north.

(Jaq does not want to get too far separated from the party.  About how far away is he from then now?)

((I'll need to get roll20 open to tell you. He's not falling behind since they didn't dash, and in fact closed the distance by 10'. He is a couple of turns distant from them though, even with his extra 30'.))

(Ok, that's good enough to know)   Jaq will move quicker to rejoin the rest.  He will head north 60 north by dashing up there, and then he will continue 30 feet more, using cunning action.  That should land him close to the fallen drow in the hallway.  If close enough, he looks to see what it is carrying or wearing and if any is familiar or looks useful.

"Well, this is either ominous or lucky.  Let's find out."  Lurn keeps advancing forward.

The party continue on, Jaq running quickly after the rest and taking a moment to examine the downed drow. The is, unfortunately, only wearing the standard dark leathers with a short sword and bow.

((Speeding it up a round to get you to the corner...))

The party stop 10ft short of the corner, Lurn in the lead.

((Can I one more perception checks from everyone please))

Cladmir narrows his eyes and examine the area.  Perception: 7

Everyone else is to jittery to get a good read on the situation but, once again, Lurn can hear the somewhat distant echo of leather creaking around the corner. He'd guess the drow are standing and waiting for them.

More concerningly are the sounds coming from behind them, nearly unheard over his companions. The soft sound of rapid boot falls and clicking he knows to be spiders just reaches him.

Mikram doesn't see anything to the south yet, but Lurn knows that they are coming.

((You're up!))

((Where are we in the hall, near any cross hallways?))

((You're 10ft short of a turn to the right, east. Looking at that last map, you're just past the last, north most door to the east.

It is a good distance to the stairs after that turn, much further than you can see. Mikram should be able to spot if anything is hanging out there though.))
