Missing Caravan

[Mardak Trannyth]

Mardak stands with a knife as he was carving up deep fried kobold meat.  "Got some food for yas!!"  He takes a bite.  "Mmm...you gotta eat here!!"  He spits out the half chewed piece just as quick as he bit into it.  "Gah fuck, even deep fried, these fuckers taste like shit!!"   

He looks over to the opal eyed goddess.  "Whaddaya want?!  OH me?!?!  Guard duty??  That's just rich!!...Next you'll want me stickin' a kobolds head on a stick...wait that's not a bad idear!!!"   

Being a Guard

[[Erm...btw Betimi, I think 10 rounds is only a minute. One round = about 6 seconds, IIRC]]

[OoC isn't that what I just said, 10 rounds.... I didn't say 10 minutes]

Betimi looks at their half-mad companion, her face expressionless. She then turns to watch the south and east passages along with Tomreal.

[Nacesh]

[ooc - nope, my memory failed me. Fire heritage is damage bonus and draconic bloodline gives breath weapon on 9th level only.]

Nacesh makes a cursory inspection of the kobold spears to see if any of them seems to be of higher quality than the rest.
"I wonder why a kobold sorcerer would need an everburning torch" he mentions in a casual tone.

(later)
Nacesh nods at Betimi's recommendation and looks at Mardak, apparently accepting, more so-- expecting him to take the lead.

Tomeal replies, "likely the bugger looted it from one of my comrades. We all had EBT's. Even if he hasn't any need for it, he could still sell it for around 55 gold. It probably just hasn't had a chance to dump it yet."

While rubbing the back of her hand, the look of worry on Betimi's pock marked face finally disappears. Tomeal notices but says nothing about the change. Instead he asks, "So are we moving on or looking for shelter?"

"I vote we press on, asI pointed out before we have kicked up the nest. If we wait all wedo is give them time to decide to kill the prisoners."

She looks back apologetically to where she knows Selina and Jonath to be, though they are out of sight around a corner from her.

"I know Selina is probably out of spells, Nacesh must be running low, but we do have those potions of healing to bolster us. If we press on maybe we can keep some momentum."

She hands Tomreal back the crossbow, though this time she keeps afew crossbow bolts tucked in her belt just in case she should need to use it ifit gets dropped and Tomreal has the quiver.

Selina Parcellus is concentrating on fully healing up Jonath, and blissfully fails to notice Mardak's antics.

"I think this has been asked already but if it hasn't, I'm asking now," Tomeal says to everyone. "Is there anyone who can detect magic? We might want to scan this stuff."

To Betimi he replies loud enough for everyone to hear, "I've pledged myself to all - well almost all - of you and as a soldier I will follow the group's wishes. I will consider Selina's request [when she asked if he would stay with them] but first we have to survive to get back to Cantus. You say we've kicked a hornets nest. Well these critters were merely the nest's, drones. The real fight will be at the center and it's likely to be rougher then a hand full of these critters. If you think it's wise to continue then I will lead the way or Jonath can, so he can search for traps ahead of us. But I would fail in my duty if I did not point out that the spell casters are nearly out of resources. If what's ahead is more difficult then we will be hard pressed to achieve success. But when I was back at the bridge I was all but dead until you found me and Selina cured me, so if I died yesterday or die today, it makes no matter to me. I'm just happy to have a second chance to avenge my comrades and help you fine adventurers."

[OoC: I'm just throwing this out there but someone does have Detect Magic.]

[[Selina has Read Magic, and a spellcraft of +2. Might have to wait till we return to Cantus...]]
