Zinn speaks up. "I've heard of this place...Daggerford. I was probably dragged there by some dimwitted wizard who believed that he'd unraveled every arcane riddle known in the multi-verse. Getting us there, however, is beyond my knowledge sadly. Hmm...and as pointed out so astutely by Odysseus, our appearance won't allow us to travel these lands very easily."
Zinn pauses for a moment, trying to draw up some sort of plan. "I can do this..." (he becomes invisible) "...and this..."(shapechanges into a raven) "...and this..." (shapechanges into a spider) "...and, lastly, this..." (shapechanges into a rat).
After resuming his true impish form, he says, "If any of those will be of use, then I am at your service."
Hungry jumps up and down as if to say you all can fly, and runs around to say the others can walk. He then jumps more on top of a body to say you can carry him. Or he says timmy’s In the well, I don’t know.
Chuckles will watch Hungry as he jumps around and then looks up to the fluttering Odysseus. "Hey... what if you stand on your hind legs with your mouth closed " The cackler will say pointing a claw towards Hungry "and you land on top... We could toss one of these robes over top and see if we can pass the pair of you off as a halfling or something" Chuckles will say turning to Odysseus with a laugh before pulling one of the smaller robes off of an elf and running towards the pair.
Chatters rummages throughout the motionless elves collecting a pair of leather gloves and a pair of leather boots that don't slide off his thin, bony feet. He will also look for any kind of helmet or mask that will cover his face accompanied by the hoods of his robes.
Sylas will stand, watching this all unfold. Chuckling under his helm as chatters begins to clothe himself. The sight was....unique.
He did ponder on Daggerford momentarily but the name didn't ring any bells, In life he didn't stay in one place for very long and rarely actually took the time to learn where he actually was; Such was the nature of his work. In fact the only place he did remember was Secomber, only because his life ended near there and even then his knowledge of the area is no where what it was when he was alive. (And because that is Literally all i remember from that map I saw a year ago.)
"All of us cant enter if we all do decide to carry on with this plan." Sylas will point out, looking over the various creatures before him. "A harpy would be killed on sight, as would an Imp and a Wretched. At least the Skeleton and I can pass as living creatures from a distance if we are garbed in such a way." Sylas, while he does look menacing is completely covered Head to toe in Plate armor and leather.
"The Imp could be invisible on my shoulder, The harpy could be doing some recon from the air while the rest await a signal or attempt to pass by unnoticed."

"Killed on sight."repeats Zinn. "We are so misunderstood, are we not, Saida and Hungry? It's a shame, really."
The imp closes his eyes and rubs his chin, indicating he's deep in thought. A few moments later he speaks. "The armored one..."(Zinn taps Sylas on the helmet as he says this) "...is quite right. Although..."(Zinn reverts to rubbing his chin vigorously again) "...the harpy has the most human face in the group. Saida, could we cover the rest of you with a cloak? Hide your wings, legs, and feet? With all respect to Mr. Chatterbox and Sylas, I think we should do what we can to make use of Saida's sweet voice and irresistible charm."
(Daggerford is a little ways away from where you are, and you have to find your way out of the forest first as well. Just saying so if you didn't want to get into sneaky disguise mode yet ya probably don't need to :D At least until you are out of the forest.)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Odysseus flaps onto the head of Hungry and curls his wings around his head. It could work... he then flies outside and takes a look around the forest from a birds eye view.
Chuckles would bounce behind the tower of monsters and toss a cloak over the top before standing back and giving it a look. "Well.. you don't immediately look like a pair of monsters... " the fiend would say with a laugh. "I think as long as you stay at a distance... and we tell people that you lost your arms.... It will be fine" The cackler says with a snicker before pulling the cloak off the two of them and stuffing it in a small satchel hanging on one of the dead elves before tossing it on to his back. "We need to get moving, let's get out of this temple and find our way out of this damn forest and then we can see about getting to daggerford..." He would say before pulling his black flute to his lips and begins to play a sinister yet beautiful tune as he makes his way out of the monastery, the black barbed chain clanking from the end of the flute as it runs down and wraps around the creatures waist.
(The skeleton does not find any masks but there are enough strips of cloth that had been covering elf eyes that he could wrap them around his face if he wanted...)
As Odysseus flies above the trees and thick mist, the bright light catches him off guard as the mid day sun shines down on what appears to be a cloudless beautiful day. As the creature moves around looking in each direction he is able to see what seems to be the end of a treeline to the west of their location. Looking to the west, squinting hard.. he thinks that perhaps he can see signs of a road but before he can tell for sure he is startled by the screeching of birds as hundreds of birds fly past him. When turning around to see what frightened the creatures... Odysseus sees that where there used to be a cloudless sky... there is now a dark vortex forming over the Misty Forest. Black and purple swirling clouds form and begin twisting upwards as lightning begins strike upwards into the vortex... your companions down below are unaware of what is happening above the thick canopy and mist but Odysseus knows that Draxx is capable of using portals like this to send troops and even himself to locations within the mortal realm.....
"Does he never rest?!" complains Zinnripple. The imp then takes the form of a raven, flies outside, and sits on a nearby tree branch. Patient and curious, he keeps his eyes on the portal, wondering what he might see next.

I can’t do that, but... I don’t know if you noticed, but my body seems like the perfect shape to go on a fake body.
Hungry jumps up and down as if to say you all can fly, and runs around to say the others can walk. He then jumps more on top of a body to say you can carry him. Or he says timmy’s In the well, I don’t know.
(throw a cloak over the Hungry and odysseous with Hungry standing on two legs with odysseous on top of him... flawlesss)
Ok, that could work. But we need someone with over 5 in intelligence to think of it. NPC, work your magic!)
Chuckles will watch Hungry as he jumps around and then looks up to the fluttering Odysseus.

Maybe... let’s see. Mister grey dog tick thing, I would appreciate it if you closed your mouth and stood up?
(Time to hold my breath. Also, I have no arms.)
Hungry’s stomach growls as he stand up and closes his mouth.

Odysseus bolts down and looks frightened. Ma’am Bird Lady! Kid Elf! Dog Tick Thing! Imp! Undead! Hurry! Draax is coming! Run! Hide!
Hungry, hearing Draax’s name, runs away into a bush outside and attempts to hide.

that is stealth, I rolled but it didn’t save
"Does he never rest?!" complains Zinnripple. The imp then takes the form of a raven, flies outside, and sits on a nearby tree branch. Patient and curious, he keeps his eyes on the portal, wondering what he might see next.
Odysseus flies and hides under one of the dead elf’s cloak, hoping he isn’t seen. He then just flies up to the top of th3 tree and hides.
21 stealth
Wait! We need the stick! He grabs the stick, the moves back into the shadows to hide again.
24 stealth.
((....Well this is gunna go great, Full plate disadvantage on stealth don't fail me now!))
"Draxx....Here?" Sylas will breathe coldly into the helm as he dashes into some foliage.
Stealth: 14
