The Grinning Snake Group 1

[Pink]

Serric

"Just to interesting to not explore further." Serric says, standing up straight and rubbing his hands together a quick moment and taking a step back, before jumping into the depths of the room, landing fully crouched on his hands and knees and allowing the shock to run its course, before standing up with a slight groan, moving his neck from side to side, and then trying to give the room a search. "I might regret this if I can't find a ladder down here."

Taking the jump myself so the first (and only i think) 1d6 of damage should be nonlethal. Also, a jump check DC 15 to see if I avoid that damage anyway. Please tell me if any of my assumptions are incorrect

Jump - (1d20+1)[21]

Taking 20 on search since I'm potentially stuck down here anyway. 26 total

[Exeson]

The shock jars Serric but he seems to have suffered no ill effects. Upon serching the room Serric finds nothing, the walls and floors are made of stone and any joins are sealed with motor. Tapping reveals nothing either as you are not able to find any hollow spots. There is not a ladder anywhere to be seen.

Just a note, outside of combat I'm not too fussed about the exact workings of the rules as i am more interested in your RPing and you coming up with interesting approaches to problems.

Serric

"Oh bugger." He curses, before looking up towards Galan. "Can't find anything down here, but it looks like we have a secure spot to hide anything we don't want others to find. By the way, you don't happen to have a length of rope or something handy do you?" He calls up, evaluating his chances of jumping back up and considering them a bit more difficult than the way he came down.

Galan

"Ahh... rope. Hmm. Sorry to say, no, actually. Is there any in your pack? Maybe Spoon has some..." He lays the rapier down so that Serric isn't left totally in the dark and calls up the fireplace, "Spoon? Any chance you've got a bit of rope I could borrow?"

"rope? well, no" he says confused "why would you ne... oh, hello mr. Serric. I guess you found your prision afterall, heh? come up at once, I'll soon try to cook somehting up for lunch. I'm starving" walks toward the table and drop some GP of his own, to calculate the rations. raises his head as he realizes the situation at hand.

"Oh right. you may need help. You're pretty brave to jump in the darkness like that, by the way. That was quite very dumb actualy, but brave. don't we have a longspear or something? that's what? a 10 feet pit? in the last case, we fill that hole with water and let him swim up."

"and oh, I found some stuff over up there. It's like a secrect watchman position with a bed. Not too fancy, but may be usefull at least as our ladies rooms ha-ha!"

Serric

"Ha ha, very funny Spoon. Oye, Galan, lean down a bit and reach down with your hand, I'll see if I can manage a way up to reach you." Serric says, slightly annoyed by himself. Walking to the far side of the pit, he takes a running start and then tries to half-jump, half-climb the depth of the pit and reach out for Galan's arm.

Galan

"Well, I don't think I have quite the strength for that. I'm afraid there'd more likely be two of us stuck down there rather than the idea working. If you can just wait a while, I'll go out and get some rope, along with other supplies. It looks like we'll need some anyway."

"Of course, that light won't last for very long, so I hope you aren't too discomfited by the dark."

Galan starts adopting a new disguise to appear older and a little shabbier, trying to fit in with the tenor of the new neighborhood.

I'll take 10 on the disguise check, taking modifiers +5 for minor details only and -2 for different age category for a total of 21.

How far away is the nearest shop/market?

About half an hour's walk as you will need to enter the city again.

"oh boy I don't fell like leaving you in that hole for long. let's see if we can find something around"

I want to doble-check any possible improvised ladder or rope in the house and it's garden

[Pink]

Serric

Sighing with a curse, Serric sits in the hole and waits for someone to arrive with the materials to get him out of there. Not a very good first impression to the others of the group.

Galan

Galan finishes his disguise, pockets the money, and goes shopping.

phin wishes good luck to galan - no real danger in shoping for a rope (I hope). ""And bring me some onions, letuce, fish and potato."I'll make company for serric, keeping the useless conversation that dosen't actualy goes anywere but may bring a laught or two. since lunch is closing in, he talks a lot about food "Yeah, once mom burned down the meat to become so hard we saved it and user as a hammer for a month..." "no, you should never serve the fish whit the scales. they taste bad and won't let the souce get in the meat..." "..about five..." "...until it get golden yellow! amazing, no?"

once the burrowed swordman gets anoyed or stop responding, I'll chance the subject "know what? I allways wanted to kindnap someone. maybe some lowly merchant's wife could grant us some 2.000 gp?"

Umm, well, since Barbarian Wizard has most definitely left us, and the DM does not seem interested in moving this forward, So, is this game dead so I can stop worrying about it?
