Well, most of da heroes are close by now, so Hurgar would pull the lever. Has 'e ta go to da bookshelf first? Is pulling da lever an "action" (if not, 'e would search fer treasure first, then pull da lever).
Have a look ;)

Crap, somehow I thought we were missing someone. It was ME!

Zargon, turn 29:

The book-lever taunts the heroes with its promise of secrets....

End of turn. Round 30 commences.

Hurgar, turn 30:

(Using the lever is a free action, so you still get a full turn afterward.)

Hurgar pulls the book-lever and...

Image

...the west bookcase slides aside. It locks in place with a dull metallic click, and a secret door in the library wall springs open!

Hurgar carefully considers his next move...

Dat starts ta look strangely sympametrical...
We'll find sum pressure plates or "suspecious" floor tiles in dat secret corridor, methinks... or a statue, at least :barbarian:
Well, we'll see. Hurgar goes in.
Perhaps sumone else may search da library fer treasure - Hurgar spares 'is action i case sum monster is waiting fer a beatup in dat corridor.
Movement:
Big Bene rolled 2 6-sided dice:
2, 4

Aw, elfcrap.
OK, at least Hurgar can search fer treasure now.
Den move to da square before da secret door.
Have a look ;)

Hurgar, turn 30 (cont'd):

Hurgar searches the library as he crosses it, taking a small glass dram from one bookshelf. Its contents smell like a healing potion.

(Hurgar gains 1 potion of healing)

Kili always feels safer with Eddy nearby, ready to do the beatdown overkill on the baddies. The level of unecessary violence comforts him as he listens to the bash-bash-bash cadence, the kind of transmutation a psychotic Trollslayer can really understand at a gut level. "Come and join the fun over here!" he calls.

Of course, being bit of an insensitive jerk, he's also looking forward to Hurgar getting zapped into the courtyard again. Better snuff a candle first before you come over (the middle one is currently out).

mikemacdee wrote:...Kili moves to the hearth and takes his tinderbox to the dead right candle. Strangely, it refuses to light. The left and center candles burn almost mockingly.

(What now, Trollslayer? Messing with the candles is a free action, so you can do it again or continue moving and do stuff elsewhere.)

My thought was to do the candle snuffing while you all explore, kill, pillage and ra.. er... loot.
Especially since I am down to 1 bp with no healing spells. If Hurgar wants to hand me his potion, I'll come and stand south of him to assist with possible diagonal attacks.

Is there any chance that Brave, Bold Sir Eddy is going to move anytime soon?

I just wondered because I thought that...

Bravely bold Sir Eddy,
Rode forth from Camelot!
He was not afraid to die,
Oh, Brave Sir Eddy!
He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways,
Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Eddy!


or did we bring the wrong Eddy with us on this quest? :lol:

I just asked Hurgar and the rest what they want me to do. If the consensus is MOVE, then Morcar can move me.

Ok I think you should move. You're no use to anyone staying in this room and we will need your diagonal attacks :)

You can take my healing potion if you want but try not to use it. I think Kili will need it when the Statues come to life.

After Orc Bait has decided what he is doing, move me in to the Library next to Kili please :roll:
