    "Ehh. Boo does not trust this Ned. See how his nose twitches? Something smells about this, and it is not stinky clouds from Boo's furry backside!" Sometimes, his fellow adventurers needed to learn more wisdom from Boo, and Minsc would both help and lead them in this worthy endeavor!

    Hmm?

    "Let us check the other room on this floor. Is it even worth my time to ask Minsc not to kick the door in?"

    Delvarian said:

    Looks to Alora and nods.

    "You are correct, only the power of the mystical arts and the overthrowing and manipulation of the simpleminded can gain us that."

    Alora isn't sure what this means but is pleased because Edwin said she was right. Alora is happy and wants to go and look in another room.

    Then she remembers they haven't searched this one and so has a look round for secret doors and stuff hidden under floorboards.

    "Yes! Minsc will kick the door in for spindly ManWitch!" Minsc headed toward the exit of the current room, pleased to be helpful in the door-kicking. It was really only an exercise to aid his butt-kicking, so it had two uses, and both were good ones!

    Aside from dust and broken floorboards, you find nothing.

    Alora follows Minsc to the next room and gets her sling ready in case.

    Edwin sighs and runs a thin hand over his face.

    "Of course, exactly what I had in mind Minsc. My intellect is truly being wasted."

    Once again, this door is neither locked nor trapped. Inside is yet another bedroom. This room is dirty and decayed. The floorboards appear intact, but rubbish is scattered everywhere and webs are profuse on the walls and the ceiling. From the doorway, you can see a glint of light in the fireplace from what appears to be a small, highly reflective object. There is no furniture in here.

    I don't like spiders. I'm checking for spiders before I go in. If there's anything bigger than a copper piece I'm hiding.

    OOC SHINY :)

    Edwin puts his hand on Aloras shoulder.

    "Hold, if those webs are any indication this room will be trouble. Allow Minsc and the others to draw out the danger."
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    You see two large brownish lumps in the webs...

    "Minsc will lead with sword and boot," he told the others. "Boo will handle the details." He stepped into the room, both hands on his Minsc-sized Sword of Boo.

    Cats eat spiders! At least some of them do.
  • reedmilfamreedmilfam Member Posts: 2,808
    "Big spiders eat cats," Minsc replied, showing his mastery of animal and language in one fell swoop.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Are the things in the webs spider or things that spiders have caught?
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    *Milo hisses at Alora for the suggestion. Milo only eats Fancy Feast."
  • reedmilfamreedmilfam Member Posts: 2,808
    Minsc pokes at one of the lumps with the tip of his two meter sword. With luck, evil would pop out and give him something to kick!
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    "Maybe they're spider egg sacs. If you poke them, a million tiny spiders will come flooding out."
  • reedmilfamreedmilfam Member Posts: 2,808
    "Spider webs are always teeming with evil and decay," Minsc explained. "Let's give it a kick and see what comes out!"
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Minsc gets rather more than he bargained for when a spider drops down out of the webs and lands on his face, biting him on the lip. He fails his save and falls over, retching up his last meal helplessly. When that's gone. it becomes dry heaves that go on and on and on. Kivan hits the spider a glancing blow with an arrow...
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Edwin watches in amusement.
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    OOC: Is Kivan not enfeebled anymore?
  • EvinfuiltEvinfuilt Member Posts: 505
    OOC: I for one am very happy to be hated here in the Inn, much better than dealing with "large brownish lumps" in a web.

    *back in the Inn, doing some story telling*

    Just then the stern line came taut under his foot, where he had kept the loop of the line, and he dropped his oars and felt the weight of the small tuna’s shivering pull as he held the line firm and commenced to haul it in. The shivering increased as he pulled in and he could see the blue back of the fish in the water and the gold of his sides before he swung him over the side and into the boat. He lay in the stern in the sun, compact and bullet shaped, his big, unintelligent eyes staring as he thumped his life out against the planking of the boat with the quick shivering strokes of his neat, fast-moving tail. The old man hit him on the head for kindness and kicked him, his body still shuddering, under the shade of the stern.

    *closes the book and puts on a smug face, overly proud of his ability to read someone else's writing*

    DM: He's getting -4 to his attacks... -3 with his bow.

    "Must have aid soon. Boo is... too young to have to avenge me!" He would definitely apply bootheel to spider in good measure. After he was done coughing up evil.
