Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage 2024

The alchemist add, “I hear those ropes have stuff in there stomachs.  Might be a wizard around here too night much going on upstairs, if you know what I mean.”

“Probably some stuff on the ground in that room too.”

ooc - Arden will keep an eye out for danger if anyone wants to stay and investigate/loot. Feel free to ask for help on any necessary skill checks. Perception: 17

OOC - We can expedite the looting the ropers say 15 minutes for Sniva and the Alchemist to loot them and the stuff on the floors While Arden stands watch. 

Let me know if you are healing by how many rounds you'll need and roll for you healing so we can update Ardens sheet.

Let me poke around here, drawls Jaeajo. He casts Guidance (+1) on himself and asks for Help on Investigation (17, 3) as he joins the search for loot.

Treasure

Each roper has 5 gemstones (100 gp each) lodged in its gizzard.  You also gather up a total of 32 cp and 11 sp scattered across the floor.

Jaeajo passes two gems to each of his companions. A little bling never hurt nobody, he comments. He leaves the coins, as if the mere act of picking up the various coins was not worth his time or effort. He looks at the others and prepares to depart this area.

5 Gems would be 1 each but the alchemist doesn't want any so one extra for jaeajo for doing the work Sniva suggests.

Actions: Direction?

Cleggor says “Lemme see if there is anything you forgot there in the belly of the roper, or under where it was squattin.  Lemme see here…”  Cleggor pokes around with his staff, but can’t find anything.  

Investigation : (Nat 1) 2

“Welp, guess that’s that.  Which way now?  Any more of those things lurkin about?  You have any idea?”  He turns to the alchemist.  “Guess we still need to find those ingredients you need..”

Cleggor turns to his owl Ollie and asks him to fly 120 feet down either passageway, looking for anything.  

Perception : 22

Jaeago will turn to the alchemist to ask, Do you know about other beasts in these here parts? Eating, not being eaten, is a priority for me, in case that helps us decide which direction to go. And we still need to get those ingredients - what was it again, a bunch of fungi and some tongues of madness - and watch out for that mage, Halaster. But if in doubt, I suggest we go left. 

The Alchemist replies, "You folks got a plan here?"

 The Alchemist replies, "Well, for one potion, I require 20 pounds of edible fungi and five tongues of madness, plus 50 gp worth of adventuring gear.  You'll spot the fungi in the caves easily enough.  Just keep your eyes looking around and you'll see it.  I haven't spotted it nearby so it might be further in."

The Alchemist replies, " I don't mean to be negative, but I think there is an insane lady in the next cavern section. I stay clear of them just for that reason.  That one Roper was headed into their territory.  The one to the north on the ceiling."
