Re: Delve the Fourth

For good measure, Aldbane also presents his holy symbol and attempts to turn the skeletons.

Re: Delve the Fourth

As the Skeletons animate Vesh places his torch upon the ground & grips his staff in both hands preparing to defend himself or his comrades if need be.
Vesh mumbles to himself"Feh, I new it. Oh well my spell will be useless here, I guess I'll have to bust skulls the old fashion way."

Re: Delve the Fourth

Rhod will also join the fray against the skeletons,if there's enough room to do so without endangering his comrades.

And if not, he'll keep an eye at the door in case the fight draws others toward us.

Re: Delve the Fourth

Vesh keeps an eye open for besieged comrades to assist if no Skeletons attack him themselves. Whether doing direct damage or potentially tripping engaged Skeletons to hamper their attacks.

[Just thinking how Vesh would do things, whether possible or practical I do not know - i figured the extra info couldn't hurt.]

Re: Delve the Fourth

Maloof's words have insufficient power to halt the skeletons' advance, but fortunately Aldbane's power and stature prevails, The skeletons stop in their tracks, then retreat slowly backwards to the wall near their shackles

| Maloof, <2d6>=5 fail. ALdbane, auto-success, turns <2d6>=6 skeletons |

Re: Delve the Fourth

"Should we exit the room and close the door since they are moving back? A bowl of silver pieces though appealing isn't worth the risk."

Vesh waits for the others to decide their next move. If they choose to leave Vesh will pick up his torch if it is still burning before exiting the room.

Re: Delve the Fourth

"With Soldra's help, I can keep these creatures at bay for you. I had thought not of taking the silver, but of adding a silver coin to the pile, to see what happens. But I am also fine with leaving," Aldbane says, keeping his holy symbol raised for now.

Re: Delve the Fourth

Grampus thinks for a moment, remembers the goblin generator, and says, "Maybe if we put silver in the bowl, we can control the skeletons. Normally I would vote against such a thing, but it occurs to me skeletons are immune to poison and might be useful against the spiders to our north. I think it is worth a try. We dwarves are not scared of a fight and are standing by to smash the skeletons if anything goes wrong." He is on high alert, magic sword in hand.

Re: Delve the Fourth

Vesh fishes out a silver to test the other's theory figuring it couldn't hurt. "I hope this works." He then slowly edges forward & drops a silver into the glass bowl.

[Update: I took a silver from my signature character write up to show I am down a silver from 19 to 18.
