Delve the Thirteenth

[merias]

Yes, my intent was to wait on the east stairs until they appear across the way.

Franklin is a good choice to protect Aldbane, with his Heroism and excellent aim with the sling.

We'll put Rhod on the other side of him

We'll put Rhod on the other side of him

Exactly.

[Makofan]

As the ghouls lope around the corner, Aldbane presents his Holy Symbol and orders them to flee. There is some confusion, as the three in front turn and flee, but the two behind push through and keep coming. Franklin crushes one's skill with a sling stone, and then Rhod is a whirling steel death machine as he carves up teh other ghoul. The altercation was short

MECHANICS
Aldbane Turn Undead (automatic), rolls <2d6>=3 turned away
Franklin, sling @ghoul, rolls 8 hit for <1d6>=6 damage, killing it
Rhod, 4 attacks @ghoul, rolls 10 14 7 15 , hits 3 times for 11 damage, killing it

Once the ghouls are fled or gone, Wiglaff crosses the sunken room and pokes his head out the door. If the ghouls have fled far to the north, he suggests they all cross the sunken room, and try the door just to the north.

Maloof will listen at the door when we arrive, always keeping an eye to the North against the return of the ghouls!

[mushgnome]

Franklin is standing by, confident he can easily one-shot any ghoul.

After not hearing anything, Wiglaff opens the door onto a 20' square room. The room contains a few dusty bathtubs. A couple of them are hooked up to pipes coming from the walls.

[kipper]

Maloof isn't feeling particularly unsanitary at the moment, he retreats back away from the door in case anyone else wants to enter and investigate.

(If no one does so, I propose we cross the sunken room again and try the other door in the tile room).
