[IC] New Crobuzon & the World Beyond

[GM Marvel]

Kubo signals the others with his hands, points to himself and signals that he is going to look ahead, and puts a shushing finger over his lips, and then moves forward as stealthly as he can pausing to smell, look and listen at his surroundings.
Hide Check = [1d20+6] = 5+6 = 11
Move Silently Check = [1d20+8] = 18+8 = 26
Spot Check = [1d20+1] = 11+1 = 12
[OoC: Kubo steps silently, crouched low into the glowing light of a furbee, and pulls a see no-evil. ]

[This is a 'Fur-Bee.'  That's not their real name but it's better than the real name so we're going with with it. ]

 

Kubo sneaks through the heavy foliage like a cat.  Not a single leaf so much as quivers.  Kobu then carefully parts a large fern to look out into the clearing. Meanwhile, one of the Fur-bees gets curious about what the dwarf is doing so it floats over and positions itself above where Kubo is squatting.  The haunting glow of the pollen stuck to the fur-bee's legs acts as a sort of spotlight, shining down upon the dwarf and in his eyes, thwarting his hide and spot attempts.  

Already frustrated with the buzzing, spotlight hovering above him, Kubo squints to see what's in the clearing but is suddenly startled by another disembodied voice...

"Let kobolds do sneaking, you protect."

"Dang nabit! Blasted Bugs!" the frustrated dwarf whispers. He then whispers in consternation to the kobold above behind him "I'm supposed to be scouting for an protecting me friends!"  [OoC: he then grumbles silently to himself "Ye flee bitten cur"]

[OoC: For the record, Tomeal is 5'4".  

Kidding!  He's about 6'4".  So he basically towers over all of you.  ]

[OoC2: There was a lot of OoC chatter.  What exactly are you guys doing? ]
