I am going to tenatively say that, yes you see him see you...since Chambers seemed to make it clear that he didn't care of Mai saw Arya see her...... However I am going to wait for a conformation from Chambers just to make sure that this is the case. I.e., Arya wasn't hiding the fact that he saw Mai (stealthing or anything). From his statement, I don't think he was.....buuuuut, just want to make sure. If he posts confirming this suspicion, Mai, you don't have to wait for me to answer him to make a post about it, if you want to make a RP post about it anyway.

Good question, was he shouting, or just talking to you though? I need a Dane answer
Well, nevermind, read that wrong I guess the first time. I'll make a roll for it then

Infernion guessed right that Kadaith would refuse. He's a sensible man and he does have a chest that he can call dibs on for himself, so he wouldn't go back in for more.

For theme, I think Ironwrought can be refluffed of need be. The features are primarily durability enhancements and accuracy enhancements with no clearly elemental flavour to it mechanically. I'm more concerned with the mechanics of the lvl 1 feature. It says roll twice. Does the original attack use the higher of the two dice? Does the extra damage on both rolls hitting count as a separate attack?

When you say it's one attack, do you mean it's a separate attack or a modifier on an existing one? The wording seems to suggest the latter but the formatting seems to suggest the former.

The power triggers off of ANY melee attack power. You make the attack, and for all intents you get a re-roll on the same power. If both rolls hit you get the bonus damage. if either hits, the triggering attack hits.

That part makes sense. What I'm thinking right now is whether the extra damage is just the 2d8 or is it a separate attack with full modifiers.

In that case I'll just stick with the original suggestions of Iron-wolf. It's the easiest to fit in thematically and I do like the overall package. I was tempted by Iron-wrought but that was just the Timmy in me speaking. No further changes and vacillation unless for plot reasons.

I would've gone back with Infernion and Dak, but unfortunately you said that it's only you two a couple of minutes before I could post - oh well, timing's a bitch. :D

On the other hand, are we preparing for a long rest inside this room?
If so, could I make a perception check to see if there is anything in the room to fortify the entrances with, planks or big rocks or something like that?

Now that that's over, LOOT TIME! I wonder how much of it are things we can use though. Might be a while before we can spend that gold. Or are we heading back immediately after this?

Things can be retconed and changed Ascy, I have no problem with this. If you would like, you can be with Infernion in the cave, with the last chest.

Well, Ascy never posted about being with you Caleb, but I am going to say he is with you anyway....so if you want, you can make a post about taking out the last chest.

There will be a couple of checks.........str for picking it up, endurance for keeping it up. Obviously since there are two of you, the DC's will be a little lower. I'll roll some for Ewin, or if you would like to roll them in your post while you are rolling yours, that is fine too.

Lets call it: 1 Str check, 3 Endurance checks

Alright, that's fine. Instead I'll roll a percentage of what you an Ewin get out of the chest before getting out of the rooms.

Scy, lets call it that you have burned the bodies, etc., and all that is done. You can go ahead and make some "identifies" on the stuff if you want.

Is that what the rules state? I've trawled through the compendium and failed to find anything on identifying magic items in 4th edition, but in all of my tabletop games, a mere short rest with arcana folks in the group would yield what the items were.

How would you like us to do them, if that's the case? Are we allowed to identify magic items only one time? Can Mai and Dak both try to identify each of the four?

Page 223, PHB:

Quote:
Identifying Magic Items

Most of the time, you can determine the properties and powers of a magic item during a short rest. In the course of handling the item for a few minutes, you discover what the item is and what it does. You can identify one magic item per short rest.

Some magic items might be a bit harder to identify, such as cursed or nonstandard items, or powerful magical artifacts. Your DM might ask for an Arcana check to determine their properties, or you might even need to go on a special quest to find a ritual to identify or to unlock the powers of a unique item.
