Okay, you all head back up then. It is about 3:00 pm at this point. There is a path to the southwest of the inn, overgrown but still discernible, and the main trail continues beyond the inn, northward to the left, and back the way you came to the right. It is early, but this might also be a defensi...

"Okay, it isn't a trigger for a secret passage," says Radny, "We'd might as well all head back up, then."

Radny leans, carefully examining the chain. (What thickness is the chain? What material does it appear to be made of? Would Radny (who is an armorer) have any idea what the chain's intended purpose was?) The chain is iron, thick as the end of Radny's thumb, and stapled to the wall. The chain is als...

Can we all head to the cellar? If so, the elf and company go there and look things over. I wonder if this is the only secret door. Odd that the dagger is rusted. I wonder if it was somehow submerged, or if it's just old. Burok asks to take a look at the dagger. As both a blacksmith and a dwarf, he ...

Radny ducks into the cellar. He grabs up a keg mallet (http://archive.lib.msu.edu/DMC/cookbooks/museum%20images%20for%20cookbooks/images/mallet.jpg) and uses it to sound the kegs down there. The first few kegs make a hollow "bonk" when Radny strikes them. "Empty," says Radny afte...

"No ale yet," says Enlo, "but we'll have a look around."

Enlo, Radny, and Lyfina begin cautiously searching around.

Enlo finds a few small bones, birds and mammals, among the leaves. It looks like the flue would need be cleaned if you wanted to light a fire here without the smoke blowing out into the common room. That is probably an easy enough task. MrHemlocks, I am still waiting for Luck checks from the rest o...

While waiting, Enlo spies the leaves in the fireplace. Happy to have something to investigate, he wanders over. "Careful" , says Los when he sees Enlo moving around. Enlo gives him an irritated look, then fetches out his iron spike and pokes it into the fire, attempting to fish out one of ...

Well I guess they will search the inn first...from top to bottom. They will look for traps, secret doors and smell for treasure along the way. The stable will be saved for last with little Tarpy climbing the ladder using his thief skills. Radny, Enlo, Lyfina, and Los cautiously enter, standing arou...

Looking up at the mid-day sun, Rafo can tell that the party has but a few hours before night takes them. "I suggest we examine this place thoroughly before moving on." Tarpy, points at the decaying building. " Like the owl said one of the princess' is on this path. This place is as g...

It is four hours after you awoke, so consider it to be about noon. Nothing dangerous occurs as you cross the bridge. On the far side, you can see the prints of a large horse's hooves on the mud beside the road, but no obvious trail of hoof-marks leading to or away from the bridge. The path leads on...

Raven_Crowking wrote:Okay; nothing jumps out at you.

When nothing happens, Radny says, "See, I told you it was fine. Are you all coming?" With that said, he strides to the middle of the bridge to see what he can see from there.

Elroth shrugs. One "nests" down each path, and the third is unknown. You're correct, we need to scout out what the lairs look like. Any trouble, we flee. Seeing the bridge in the river, Elroth and Graham ready their bows, Borok his hammer. They peer to either side of the bridge from where...

"Too true, too true. Much evil is afoot within these woods, and you as unable to fly as chicks just hatched from the egg! But you are bigger folk than we owls, and mayhap you can do what we cannot. Twit! Twoo! Follow this path far enough, and you'll find one of them for sure. Another nests dow...

The owl blinks. "Twilleyes, you may call me." Fastidiously, he accepts the piece of smoked fish. "A moment, and I will return your gift!" . The owl flies off, returning on silent wings several long minutes later. He drops a dead mouse at Tarpy's feet. "A gift for a gift, th...

Lyfina says, "Gathering firewood sounds like something we should do." Radny, Lyfina, and Enlo stand and gather firewood, never straying more than about 10 feet from each other. Los volunteers to make dinner, taking whatever provisions are available and begins the process of turning them in...

After crawling seven feet, the mound opens up into a chamber seven feet across, which peaks at a height of three feet. The chamber is scattered with old human bones. Radny calls up, "It looks safe down here. Just a bunch of old bones." Radny kicks the nearest bone, ready to flee if anythi...

"Radny, you sure want to head in there?" Tarpy hands over a torch. "Let me tie a rope around your waist just in case you need pulled out quickly." OOC...If Radny does not object a rope will be tied around his waist and it will be held by Rafo and Balin. "Sure, I'll just pok...

Raven_Crowking wrote:Perhaps, perhaps not. In any event, nothing rushes out at you.

Once the fire dies down, Radny says, "Well, looks safe. Anyone got a torch?"

If someone provides a lit torch, Radny will lead the way.

You travel another three hours along the path without incident save the calls of birds and the sight of small beasts. Then a burial mound rises to the west of the path, about twelve feet in diameter and six feet high, and surrounded by standing stones. Green turf grows atop the mound. A path leads ...

Pointing northward, Balin waves the others onward. "I suggest following this road till it dies out than head back to this fork and go west." Rafo, looks at the fork in the road and notices the color of the bricks. "Yes, let's head north for now for I feel these reddish bricks, that h...

Two things: (1) Two may move abreast on the path. What is your "marching order"? (2) All characters, 1d20 + Luck modifier; I just need to know the lowest roll. Radny positions himself at the front of the marching order, seeking as he does action. Enlo, Los, and Lyfina would be happier tow...

Rafo, looks at Los. "You suggest we head straight into the woods. Taking neither path than?" "No," says Los nervously, "This overgrown path is more likely, I think. At least we should explore it a bit to make sure they're not on it..." He trails off. "Let's just g...

Looking at the two paths, Los says, "I suppose the zombies aren't haunting well-travelled roads, else we wouldn't have to be out here looking for them."

"Well Los," Rafo answering the man's question, "we know of three tormented, evil, undead princesses that roam the area and these control the other undead. The baron sent us on s scout mission in and around the Grimmswood and report our finding back to his people when completed. We ar...
