The Manse Macabre (concluded)

[mikemacdee]

Hurgar:



After an embarrassing miss, Hurgar sidles to the left to let his scrawny pals through.

Eddy Wizzard:



Eddy then steps in and plants his staff right in the creature's eye -- a takedown that leaves even the wizard himself astonished.

[Sjeng]

and Eddy finishes the job!

Caranthir Movement:

The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Caranthir dashes through the room his companions are in and through the open door (stopping on top of the carcass of the goblin). He turns to his companions, puts on his best Wizards voice and announces:

'You shall not pass......until I have made sure this room is clear of traps.'

[Big Bene]

Superb! How's that for a softy, eh Hurgar?

Softy smash good! Go, Softy!

[Sjeng]

Let's see if there any traps and hidden doors, then Kili can froth onward.

[Daedalus]

and Eddy finishes the job!

Kili takes in the violent display, grunts in agreement, the moves froth toward the next door (assuming no traps or secret doors were found by Caranthir).

Movement:

Daedalus rolled 2 6-sided dice:

He then searches for treasure from the top-right corner.

[mikemacdee]

Caranthir:
Caranthir's search yields a little Goblin-sized access door used by the slaves. It is small, but just large enough for the heroes to pass through.

Kili:
After determining that the dining room is safe, Kili moves in and is startled by the return of the desperate scratching within the walls. With a slight shiver he puts it out of his mind and tosses the place for valuables.



Seems the china isn't quite as valuable as it appeared. Not when compared to the secret gold cache stashed here by one of the slaves! Perhaps the late Goblin was skimming a little off the top...?

[mikemacdee]

Zargon's Turn:

Beyond the west door, the monstrous chef ceases his butchery and calls out in daemonic tongue, probably having heard the fight with the Goblin (or, more likely, the cry of the foolish Elf). Then the room is silent for a long time.

End of Turn

[The Road Warrior]

Time to show some initiative as no one else is moving.

Caranthir Movement:

The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:

"I'm going to investigate the slaves entrance" Caranthir calls to his companions. He moves through the secret door and if the corridor is clear he searches for traps/secret doors.
