Missing Caravan

[GM Marvel]

Tomeal will be strapping on his breastplate when he notices Selina's choice in protection.  "I'm pleased you've chosen to upgrade your armor especially in the face of this unknown creature.  However, is your choice based upon aesthetics, or religious reasons?  I was just wondering because from experience Breastplate is a better form of protection in that it gives your legs more freedom to maneuver and it's also about ten pounds lighter."

[FYI: Breast plate has a better Max dex bonus which doesn't effect you but it gives you a -4 Armor check penalty to skills rather than the -5 that given by Chainmail.  You're choice.  I just wanted to give you a heads up.]

[OoC: I updated the list a little.  I made a distinction between Light and Heavy Crossbows; put ammunition on the list; added Misc Equipment for documentation and Clarity.  If I missed anything please let me know.  REMEMBER, Tomeal can carry extra equipment so if you are in medium encumbrance that slows you down, feel free to give some to Tomeal or even Mardak.  Piper can convince him to be more helpful.  If you are wearing Medium armor then Medium encumbrance is a nonissue since you're moving slowly because of your armor anyways.]

[Grrrr I lost half my post...   ]

Piper watches as the group gingerly picks through his equipment stash.  Shaking his head slightly he says, "Don't be afraid to restock yourselves.  It's more important that you are fully ready for the fight than to run in unprepared.  My people need you to succeed!  They won't be angry you took what you needed to save their lives!"

Meanwhile,

Inside the room Ohma asks Nacesh again, "Hello?  Are you sure you don't need the spear you offered me?  I don't want to leave you undefended."  The little girl continues to watch the clockwork bird tweet and flap its wings with great delight.  She whispers, "I hope the little man comes back to play..."

[Spot checks: Nacesh 12; Ohma 15]

Ohma suddenly freeze when she sees one small and 2 tiny creatures with bulbous bottoms creeping across the ceiling and through the doorway.  She hisses, "Spiders!"  When she does all three suddenly stop.  Each of their six black smaller eyes and two larger eyes reflect the torchlight while seemingly watching what you do next...
