Mazra's Sunless Citadel Campaign

"Well Master...D..w..a..r..f," Erky says hesitantly. "I would like to join for a time anyway.  May be we can find me spellbook.  It would be nice to have my custom fit studded leather armor, a small shield, a cudgel...not that I ever actually use it, and may be a sling with some stones....though I really never use those either.  How about a crossbow?  I guess that is asking too much."

"I can lend you a dagger until we find more?" and she pulls out a dagger from her waist, frowns, replaces it and pulls a separate one from a thigh strap, shakes her head returning it, before settling on one pulled from her boot. 

handing my crossbow and quiver of bolts over, Here'ya go and may your aim be better than mine with this blasted thing.

Yeah, didn't those little guys a couple of rooms back have studded leather armor? Might be able to make that work for you master Timber.

"Are you sure, good Dwarf, that you are willing to give up your crossbow,"  ERKY is a bit concerned.

In addition, he thanks PORTIA for the dagger.

And finally, he cobbles together enough Goblin armor to cover vital areas.  He cast again Prestidigitation, and the spiked leather becomes clean, even the metal bits sparkle.

(The party has already checked the other two doors.  Where do you go?)

The goblins had crossbows and Scimitars if he wants them. 

"Let go for the North door. Unless you have other thoughts." 

Unless stopped Xanth will approach the North door wait for everyone to get set and then opens it.

Aye friend, that stick and string has never worked right in my hands anyways. North door it is.

Glynt gets in position for the next door to be opened and waits ready with his bow.

RAGDOR mysteriously opens the North door.  

Beyond you see a corridor with two more doors, one across, one down the hall. (Fortress Level Part 5 map has been updated.)

ERKY moves in behind GLYNT and whispers to his kinsman, "I think I will stand behind you if you don't mind.  I tend to be a bit squishy."

move to the door across from us, inspect it, listen at it...percep roll 12+4=16

Xanth follows him into the hallway.

Glynt moves into position ready for if Ragdor opens the door opposite us. (Map updated)

You hear Goblins on the other side of the north door.

(Do you still open the door?)

In addition, RAGDOR with a little assist from both MEEPO and XANTH, notices that there is a pit trap in front of the west door.  XANTH holds back the Skeleton from falling in.

(Map updated and tokens moved to logical locations.)

turns to everyone - holding my finger to my lips to indicate for everyone to be quite, point to the far end of the corridor and mouth the word trap...point to this door and indicate I hear voices...can I tell how many by listening at the door?

Porita has her swords drawn ready, she is still squishy so is behind Xanth, but ready for a fight

There are at least three Goblins behind the door.

Do you open the door?

Glynt is waiting with his bow trained on the door and keeping an ear out to the side as he tries to protect Erky.  He is ready for action.

Xanth looks to Glynt and quietly asked him to light up his Glaive.

But then is ready to rush in.

(Moving On!)

GLYNT puts a little light on the XANTH's glaive.

RAGDOR does his magical open-the-door thing.

The stench, garbage, and carrion here are evidence of years of use by unsanitary tenants. Tattered hides stretched on frames form six unstable hammocks around a much-used firepit. Battered cooking equipment is mixed indiscriminately with broken or worn arms and armor.   There are three Goblins in the room.  One Goblin turns and notices the light.  The other two disengages their squabble over what looks like a piece of leather to react to the door and the light.
