Northlands Campaign

Cade strikes at the bad-tasting zombie again...
Bite Attack: 25 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
Claws Attack: 11 Damage: 8

Cade hits with teeth, but the taste distracts his swipe, which just barely misses.

Rachel:  17

Bart:  14

Cade:  13

Wil:  10 -- active turn

Ogre Zombie:  8

Kina:  3

Barnabus:  3

If the is a fire source close enough, Will lights the tip of his arrow on fire and attacks, if not he just attacks.

Attack: Attack: 26 Damage: 11

The arrow finds a home in the creature's right eye, eliciting what for it would be a scream of pain, but sounds more of a gurgle, and it falls over backwards, and moves no more.

CON save:  8

'Junior' says, "Wow, that was intense.  I didn't even know it could move."

Wil bows a “You’re welcome” to the group and straightens up with a playful smile on his face. 

There is a path, terminating in a blank eastern wall, and a wooden door at the west side of the south wall.  The rest of the room has a think blanket of dust, dirt and debris that gives evidence no one has moved through that part of the room in quite some time.

Wil takes a look at where the path ends at the eastern wall.

Investigation: 18

You notice one of the blocks in the south wall is worn moreso than the rest of the wall.  A light touch and a section of the eastern wall slides south, revealing a 10' wide hallway.

After only about 10', it turns to stairs going down.

OOC: Quick question we still have junior and 2 more of the guys with us or just junior?

Bart looks to junior and asks "What do you mean you didn't know the Ogre could move? Haven't you gone through this path before lad?"

OOC:  2 captives, Junior and Limpy (the unconscious leader).

Junior shrugs and says, "Yeah, all the time, but he never moved before."

Rachel chimes in, "it was probably ordered to only attack under certain conditions.  We would use them on rare occasions outside the borderlands when we were not able to get back before nightfall."

Bart says "Maybe we should switch clothes with our lovely guests here and act as if we have brought in some newbies for 'The One'. I might be coocoo, but just maybe it could work" Bart snickers a bit at the word coocoo when he says it as it is a bird pun to himself.

“Coo-coo? No, a bit flighty.... maybe” Wil continues on with the pun with a friendly smile. Wil looks at the group, “We can try wearing their clothes.... sounds like you just volunteered to be our captor.....”

Bart laughs way to hard at Wil's joke letting out a a loud crow in the prosses which turns into a cough as he tries to hide the fact that he just crowed. Ahem... No I think me and Kina should be the imprisoned as we...look a bit different. Those cultists may be dumb but I don't think me and Kina will pass as their bretherin. They definitely will not think of us as Birds of a feather" Bart laughs again at his bird related joke

Kina glances sidelong at Bart.
"So, I am to be bound up like some trophy, disrobed, shamed, and paraded through for any remaining minions to see?" she asks, deadpan, then smirks.
"Sounds like more fun than I've had for months, that's for sure." she remarks offhandedly. It's not really clear whether she's just joking or if it really has been that long since she's dated... or Kina is a kinky pervert. All seem equally likely.

"Not sure how you will explain a brown bear..." Cade says as he moves to the stairs down.

”We could just go “door by door”, fling it open and toss Barnabus in first since he’s itching to fight...... On a more serious note, I think we just move ahead as we have been as it seems to have worked well so far.”

Bart blushes hard at Kina "well maybe we can carry out that kind of fun another time." Winking at her. Bart tries to snap out of being like this to focus at the task at hand clearing his throat he says to Wil "I reckon ole Barnabus here is a good way to go. Lets keep a move on then, no need for tricks. We will rustle some feathers the old fashioned way.". He smiles and is rejuvenated by Wil's bravery and audacity.

The stairs descend about 30' and flatten out as the hallway takes a roughly 45 degree turn to the right.  After another 40' feet, it branches left and right, again at a 45 degree angle for each.

East?  or South?

"Well done!" Exclaims Barnabus patting Wil on the shoulder as the ogre falls. He continues move along with Junior at the head of the group through the secret door and doen into the tunnels. He chucklrs at the puns but remains vigilant in his role as protector. When the group finnaly reaches the divergence he looks to Junior to see if he can get a sense of which direction. If no chpice becomes apparent he will suggest south.

Junior nods to the right, southward passage.  "The gnolls that are visiting will be just a little further along this way, but this is the way back to the barracks."
