(Ah well regardless Jackson was going to give the earring to Nil after giving him the scrolls, the staff to Harukai and the pearl to Neph. Making the check to ensure Jackson knows whatever notable piece loot they find next goes to Harukai -- if he wants it -- then Neph again. He's making a cycle of it.)
Gently opening the door you see there is another small hallway almost exactly like the one on the other side of the room you are in now. A set of stepps to the left and a door directly ahead with gruff voices yelling “lick the floor! If you think that the floor is clean, show us!”
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
OOC: okay let’s try something a little differnt here. Nephrius is in front and has rolled very high on stealth. Harukai rolled low. Rather than have the enemies just hear Harukai, I will roll them perception and anyone who beats it can get a surprise attack. Those who don’t beat their perception will miss a surprise round and go in regular initative order.
Nephrius eases the door open and sees two large bugbears yelling at a single goblin, who is cowering from the larger creatures.
As the group moves stealthily through the doorway, the bugbears' backs are to the door, but the goblin who is being bullied is facing the door and sees the group. He lets out a small yip of surprise and faints. The bugbears begin turning toward the door looking for the source of the goblin's fright. Nil and Nephrius take a surprise attack and we will move to initiative order.
Nil races into the room and swings with his rapier, but the first bugbear is able to lean back just enough to dodge the sharp implement coming at him. He see's the follow up dagger attack and sidesteps just in time to avoid this as well. While he is focused on dodging Nil, Nephrius attacks him from the other side with her shortsword and connects with his upper arm, causing him to send out a roar of pain. As he turns toward the newly established threat, his movement is just enough to allow him to avoid Nephrius's second sword swing.
The two bugbears make their attacks against the two who are closest and attacking them. The first bugbear, already facing Nephrius following her attack on it, swings its morningstar at her. The second bugbear attacks the next closest threat, Nil, with his morningstar.
Morningstar attack on Nephrius: Attack: 17 Damage: 10
Morningstar attack on Nil: Attack: 19 Damage: 16
So Nil takes 16 piercing damage and Nephrius takes 10 piercing damage
Nephrius howls at the hit from the Bugbear taking heavy damage, but will continue to fight through the pain moving to get flank with Nil but staying in melee with the bugbear not to provoke an attack.
Shortsword R:25Damage:6Sneak:4
Bonus action nephrius will hold her might against the bugbear using second wind Heal:3

Other than the gold earring, Jackson will give each person 4gp, 13sp, and 18cp.
Perception check to see if Jackson saw Nil pocket the earring: 12
He'll give an extra gp to Harukai, an extra 2sp to Nil and an extra 3cp to Neph.
Answering Harukai: "I do believe clearing this floor of all threats would be wise."
OOC: Can we tell what the voices are yelling and perhaps how far they might be on the other side of the door?
Perception: 6
OOC: Wow, really sucking on the Perception rolls...

Hard to tell about the distance of the voices. They seem to be talking loudly, but the actual conversation is not distinguishable at this time.

Harukai whispers, “Are we ready to move on?”
When people are ready, Harukai will try to sneak along with the rest of them toward the voices, his new staff in hand.
Stealth: 7

“We move.” Nephrius will move at the lead if no one me takes it.
Stealth: 26
Perception: 10

Harukai will continue following Nephrius’ lead, hoping to catch the red brands unaware.
OOC: New stealth check if needed to go through the next door...
Stealth: 5

Jackson and Nil, roll stealth for a surprise round.

OOC: More than fair, GM. Sneak attack for Neph while Harukai distracts them by tripping over his own staff...stupid low stealth rolls...

Nephrius will run in with both her shortswords on the same bug bear as Nil.
