Based on Kintire's PMs and posts here in OOC, I will assume Safana has also gone with the party.


Taking a full complement like this means that one PC might get left behind in order to extract Cormac. That's obviously not a good thing.

I haven't had feedback from Ben, so I will assume that his PC is lurking near a boat on the riverside near the docks, hiding, protecting a secondary means of escape for the others if things get bad (such as if the party is split up).

Ben, let me know if he'd have done something else.

The stealth checks are in case he needs 'em.

He's disguised, natch.

Change Self Safana, to look like an Alamien guard.(action adapted from Kintire's PM)

She slips in during all the confusion.

[ewancummins]

Four remaining guards in gate attack Gunnar, Foerde, and Roald

(They don't spot Filbert and Renn)

No luck for these guys.


Filbert and Renn sneak past during the frantic, confused fighting, slipping into the castle. I'll assume that they are shadowing the 'guard' who runs into the keep (Safana).

Results: Foerde is struck with a possible crit. Roll to confirm...

Not a crit

sword damage= 1d8

That's almost nothing for the cat-man; a scratch or a slight bruise.
