Alright! We wont be going to the site today as I'm gonna go snooze in a bit, but I guess you can talk before you head off

(can't post much this weekend so assume Bwadle is just going unnoticed as halflings can.)

(In much the same predicament as Ry, it's a busier than usual weekend. Unfortunately it's a little harder for a 7'5" dragonborn to go unnoticed)

Alright, well it would be nice to get a little break from 5 campaigns, so we might just not do this one today

On the road, Wilkas to Gronk: "So far you favoured ranged combat, but looking at those axes, you must have experience fighting in close quarters. I must admit I panicked a little when that manticore got close to me, but with the new gear, I should be alright. Do you have any advice on how to deal with close combat?"

"Not one for tactics myself.... My experience has always been hit the thing harder than it hits you. If you're uncomfortable it might be best to stay back. Me and Bwadle can get up close.... Unless you've got some special magicy thing you can do." Gronk seems like he has never thought about how to fight before. Explaining it seems to be hard for him.

One - While walking and listening to Ones companions talk One is trying to ensure that there isn't any threats in the immediate area.

Perception: 14

There is no threats 10

Bwadle will chime in. "If ye'don't want to get hit, best to make ye'self the smallest threat. Any'n with a brain s'gonna go after th'one slinging magics around."

You arrive at your destination. The canyon’s rocky walls rise to a height of eighty feet. At the end of the canyon, a twenty-foot-high wall of black stone has a broken gate carved into it, with one stone door hanging precariously by a hinge and the other door missing. Beyond this open gate, in the shadow of a great mountain to the east, lies a ruined settlement. All is quiet.

"I'm getting a bad vibe, friends, be on your guard." Wilkas will close his eyes for a couple of seconds and place a hand on his chest. False Life 5

Bwadle draws his shield and a javelin. He immediately goes on alert.

Perception: 10

It appears all is well at the entrance

When they reach the gate, Wilkas will investigate the damage to find out if it was recent and what did it. Investigation 23

Bwadle will walk backwards and guard the rear of the group. His fingers twitch on his weapon, and there a Wolverine like smirk on his face.

It seems very long ago, it was an avalanche

Gronk will draw his axe and look around for signs of the dwarves. Investigation 14

You can tell people have been here and can sense that (good good) greasy odor of a dwarves beard coming from inside :P

Gronk will stand up and start moving inside. "The dwarves are this way."

You find yet more ruin, though this looks like the ruins of a building with walls and doors
