    I'm trying to get a mental picture of what Tiaxina and Xzara look like ... and frankly it is the stuff of nightmares. Has anyone got any suitable pictures of female gnomes or tattooed female wizards?

    I'm picturing Xzara looking like Kat Von D. If it just looks like Xzar without his beard or something, then I would be throwing up along with you.

    hmmm, tiax's comment makes me think he's got a romance coming on......wonder if it'll be with boo?

    Maybe with Alora. They're about the same size.

    lol... I'm hoping for a Bugs Bunny in drag-esque musical number, personally.

    I'm back... And last night we paused. We have the characters in an L-shaped section of corridor, a door at each end, one with a pit in front/after it, the other unopened (as yet).

    So, who's here?
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Right, so last night, there was some concern that going to check out the large room with the vanished ghostly noises and dim, ominous red light was a bad idea.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Yes, there was. And TIAXINA wanted to check the pit or the wall by the pit, and wanted to see what was in the pit.

    Minsc is here! Buttkicking for justice!
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Right, in case it was one of the fortuitous falls mentioned in the cryptic poem.

    "Where are the evil creatures? So far this place is nothing but a haunted house full of traps everywhere. What a cowardly way to fight. Nevermind, the Light shall purge this hell hole whether it shows or not its true face"
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Don't forget the snakes and the Giant Skelly. Those qualify as monsters...
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Imoen is in no hurry to explore the ominous red light. She's okay with looking at pit traps as long as she doesn't have to leap into them. Alora was also saying she's curious about the other two spheres in the hallway.

    "Boo seconds that shiny man! Let the evil show itself, that Minsc might slice it from neck to $&@$ !!"
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Which way should we go?
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay. TIAXINA asks to be lowered into the pit on a rope to check the wall. As she is, Xzara leans over the edge to watch. Kivan is staring at her.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Imoen will hold the light.
  • AlejandroAlejandro Member Posts: 201
    " Xzara is lucky that Kivan does not shoot arrows from his eyes, otherwise, she would be pretty dead by now "
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Minsc shrugs and looks about the room.

    "Where Imoen leads Boo and Minsc will follow. We shall guard your back in case the evil decides to be sneaky.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    I'd mention what part/parts he was staring at, but you can probably all guess by now. TIAXINA makes a pleased noise. "I found a crack in the wall," she says with a lurid giggle.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    "Good job! Is there a key inside?"
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    You crowd closer, and Xzara makes a startled noise as someone jostles her. Kivan grabs for her, but it's too late- she falls into the pit face first. She falls onto three of the spikes, and loses all three of her poison saves. She takes a spike through the chest and makes a soft whimper. "Mommy... Mommy, I'm cold," she whispers, before dying.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Ouch.
  • BjjorickBjjorick Member Posts: 1,208
    OOC: .......that was unexpected......
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Imoen shakes her head slightly. "I don't know quite what to say, except that nobody deserves that."
  • AlejandroAlejandro Member Posts: 201
    "What an unexpected and horrible way to go... ."
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Minsc stares down into the pit for a moment before turning around, an angry look on his face.

    "Minsc is tired of losing friends to this death trap dungeon! Let the evil show itself! Minsc will strike you down!"

    Minsc is holding his sword in his hand, and breathing heavily.
