Nick looks at the pit sadly. "Should we really leave the body behind though? I'd like to save him if we could, but if nothing else, leaving the body behind may cause trouble in the future."

(ooc- Nick has no way of looking into the pit so he has no idea if he's dead or not, only going off 'there is a spike in him')

"Dead or not, he doesn't deserve to fester down in some pit. Is'sara, I will help you."

He will then help tie the rope off and lower Is'sara as carefully as possible down into the pit.

As the party tries to decide what to do about Feng's sudden death, the ringing noise from down the corridor gets louder. You hear loud shouts and those with darkvision see five black-robed men clustering around the archway opposite the one you all came in from.

Roll initiative.

Melanthum

Once again, Melanthum finds himself with a suddenly dead comrade. This time, however, he simply sighs and shakes his head as he hears the approaching cultists. He shakes his head again, rolling his eyes to the ceiling.

You know, I really do hate cultists. Bad uniforms, bad taste, generally brainless, and they never seem to run out no matter how many you incinerate.

Initiative - (1d20+5)[15]

Korral, his sword already out, snaps his focus onto his enemies, reacting with lightning speed to their presence.

Is'sara

"They generally smell bad too," Is'sara adds to Melanthum's comments, as she works to untie the rope from around her middle.

Sonny's grin was not a pleasant thing to behold. ""Sonny likes cultists. Nobody to miss them."

Connor

"They barely provide any kind of warm-up for one's skills," Connor adds as he gets ready to fight.

Initiative: (1d20+5)[6]

Edit: Aw, dammit, haha.

Gryfe

Gryfe merely smiles, and draws his swords. Backing up a bit, he prepares to spring over the pit...

Nick

Initiative: (d20+9)[29]

Before drawing his weapons, Nick asks "Who wants a free dimension door over the pit? I'm sure some of you don't want to jump it."

(Nick and Gryfe have even initiative, both of them beat the cultists. After them go the cultists, then the rest of you in normal initiative order.)

((I will be incommunicado for the next couple of days, til about Christmas. Feel free to NPC me if necessary. I am at the bottom of the Init, so if possible, my character will fly across the pit to the figures. If not, if there's an open Dimension Door (never played a high level caster so I don't know how that works, lol) he'll take that. If not, he'll try and get around the pit as fast as possible and attack.))
