Storm King's Thunder

Quote from Hardcopi >>

//Marav will search the body, looking for keys or the like (and anything else interesting)

 

//Well I assume he went toward the hunt lord and pretty sure he was bloodied. Marav will attempt to track him. Bloody footprints, etc.//

Survival: 13 (same plus for perception, so you choose which)

Marav sees no evidence of blood or footprints on the flagstones. It's as if they both just vanished.

//How big is the keep? Cause we are gonna have to go room to room then//

The building has three stories, three corner turrets, and rooftop battlements. 

The banquet hall takes up the majority of the first floor, but there are stairs that lead up—one at the end of the long hallway (the door you didn't check earlier); one at the back of the banquet hall, behind an alcove; and one near the foyer behind a locked door. The castellan's key opens this door as well.

// So we have three torches with double light output and if Rip wants he can cast light at the end of his blade or that rapier Ink gave him.... So shall we go hunting, best tracker up front? Ink can help with perception checks. //

// If you're working as a group to search the place, you can each roll Wisdom (Perception) checks individually and then we'll deal with the results.

Or you can break up into two teams, and have only one character make a Perception check per two-person or three-person team, with Advantage. //

// Sounds fair to me... // 

Ink joins in Marav's search, bemoaning, "I miss Quill during times like this..."  // Perception 10 //

// Did you delete and put up a new post with similar info? LOL ... Well, I'll hold off then until the group decides... //

Ink suggests, "Perhaps we should split into a couple of groups, ensuring we have a good tracker in each so that the others can help him. I know Marav's abilities are as good in his half-orc form as they are as a dire wolf (+5), whereas I'm okay at times (+3)...  what of you all? Who among you can lead a hunting party?"

"Well, ah aint'na  better  tracker than ye elf (+3) but Moradin  shows me th' path at times guidance

"My audience usually finds me, im not particularly good at tracking" (+1)

“I’m about as good as you guys when it comes to tracking (+3)” Angel adds 

Ink seems to be thinking about something and suggests, "How about Angel gets some help from me - maybe we get lucky... That leaves Marav with the help of Flint (who can offer guidance) and Rip (who can INSPIRE him)."

// Figured we should stack the deck on one end... Jac feel free to roll for Angel with advantage, I've been getting crud as of late.... HC would roll with advantage for Marav with a d4 from Flint for guidance and a d8 from Rip,  if he has inspiration to give... //

//i got 2 inspirations left//

Hearing Rip's concerns, Ink replies, "You know when to best use your talents - if you think it best to hold off then do so. I'm merely supplying the idea."

// If you guys are good with Ink's plan, go ahead and roll them dice! Also tell me which way you're going :) north, southwest, or southeast tower. //

Marav will head north with Ink.

Perception: 20

Ink, grabbed by Marav as he heads north, "I take it that you didn't like my plan." Then with some stern anger to his voice, "Next time - voice your displeasure rather than just strike out on your own." Then shaking free of Marav's grasp, he says "And never grab me like that again." Ink then silently assists with his tracking.

//  Sorry, I know I'm assuming a lot in the above, but it's the only way I could explain the change from the plan Ink had described .... //
