1D20 + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8 for Eric Withakay...

Ivan remembers that the dwarf who gave the party the task originally was named Gundren Rockseeker, this must be a relative who you are meeting.

[DavidBoren]

Eric still hasn't quite figured out that this isn't the Rockseeker we were seeking... even with the introduction.

Is there anything interesting or exciting to be found on the two Redbrand fellows?

Eric is most interested in upgrading his short swords to a rapier and scimitar, so either such weapons are his top priority... other than that, Eric is always looking for reading materials (on literally any subject), and obviously arrows (not bolts).

Gold/gems/etc are handed to Pique for fair distribution, for no other reason than Eric's natural trust of Gnomes versus pretty much anyone else. Most likely accompanied by a comment on how a Gnome has yet to do me wrong... 50/50 chance it includes a warning not to be the first.

[mtaylor]

They each have a short sword, and between them you find 7 gold and 9 silver pieces.

[DavidBoren]

Eric mumbles something...
*grumble*grumble*broke@$$ b!tches*grumble*grumble*

[Nish]

Obake Were you still joining us?

[Obake]

I believe so, I really need to fix the email notifications - sorry

[Grendel]

I'm not really sure were we are with initiative at this point and whether it is time for my character to contribute......

[mtaylor]

We are out of combat, join in whenever.

[Nish]

Just made a choice since we seemed to have stalled out. Anyone that wants can feel free to jump in and stop Gudgeon. He doesn't feel strongly either way but doesn't want to wait around.

[DavidBoren]

Any choice made with even the slightest bit of confidence has to be better than indecision.

Let's do this.

[mtaylor]

Or do you guys want a bunch of red brands to come running out when they wonder where their buddies went?

[DavidBoren]

Eric Withakay would prefer to keep the majority of the fighting as far away from the village as possible.

While it would be nice to have them come to us, I think we are pretty intent on bringing the fight to them... however foolish this may prove to be.

Plus, unless they are led by an absolutely berserk Neanderthal, the chances of them abandoning their fortified position is slim to none.

[DavidBoren]

I will just go ahead and get this out of the way, as I believe it is obviously what comes after buff spells are casted...

Eric Withakay rolls for Initiative:
1D20 + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12

And, just in case, Charisma check to project my thoughts to the abomination in the cave:
1D20 + 2 = 18 + 2 = 20

[Nish]

Giving in to the peer pressure since everyone else is doing it Ok I'll give in to the peer pressure results to the roll will be narrated when I come around again... at the bottom of the order:
Initiative: 1D20+2 = [4]+2 = 6
