Waterdeep: Camel Heist (2020)

Quote from SteveThaiBinh >>

you are able to recognise that someone has been using this equipment to attempt to create potions, specifically a Potion of Invisibility.  There don't appear to be any successful potions lying around. 

OOC: I suppose it would be hard to see a potion of..........invisibility.....lol

Varinth will try an ascertain his position in space. He believes GlassRod should be to the south east corner of the room but would he be a full floor up? How far down did the stairs go?

As Vaz thinks on this, he casually picks up a glass vial and walks over to the door in the north east corner and places it on the ground where a person entering the door may very well step on it (making sure that if the door opens inwards that it will clear the vial.) He will then sit down at the worktable and face the door (in the NE).

What is lighting the room?

Varinth, the stairs were a full flight down.  It would make sense that Glasstaff is to your south-east, but  definitely above.  You place the glass vial.  The room is lit by the same oil lamps that have been all around the Redbrands' hideout, burning and providing a clear illumination to the room. 

Varinth will put one of the oil lamps next to the door. Cover off. Then sit back down, casually flipping through a random book.

Varinth, please roll a Perception check.

Glasstaff enters the secret door, and you hear footsteps descending a flight of stairs.  Do you follow?

(busy tonight but would have checked out the lab so happy to be puppeted following Vaz around. Sorry!)

Perception : 16

Dekhan will seize opportunity and attempt to kick Iarno down the stairs. And then charge down after him drawing his sword. 

Everyone, roll initiative please.

Initiative 12

Initiative 5

Initiative : 21

Sitting down.

Reading a book.

In a completely different room to the enemy.

Roll for initiative.

That is when I roll a natural 20....

brilliant.

Initiative: 7

Incantis, having been silently watching the conversation, smiles vindictively as the slaveholding mage is knocked ass over teakettle. "Sorry Zoria," he says with a grin. "You'll have to take your toll from your share of the spoils."

Got it. Thanks Steve.

I'm sure that with a roll like that, Vaz isn't even surprised by the ending of the book. 😂

 

Vaz is so initialized he has already started looting the body that isn't there yet.

11 init

In case a Deadbrand gets up while frisking or Vaz's chair is a mimic

Hit 18 dmg 10

Bonus-Fu 19 dmg 4

Edit: can't see what's wrong with the roll codes....
