Test Thread


Amerlyn (Ty) and Thanos the Mighty (Dustin) are your two characters. See the character creation section for stats before starting here:

Amerlyn and Thanos awaken in a dimly lit room, and you both see that you are not the only two there. Several beds besides your own are occupied. A woman lays unmoving in a bed in the east corner, her head wrapped in bandages. Next to her, a man covers his mouth and coughs, before doubling over in pain. An empty bed lies next to him, and a young girl is curled up with a stuffed bear in the bed next to Amerlyn's resting place. She feels a throbbing pain in her right temple, and she cannot fully open her eye. Thanos is in the bed to her left, his arm tightly wrapped between two wooden planks. The cloth around his arm is stained with blood.

(Any actions you want to take now are up to you. Write your post as if you were writing a novel in first person or third person)

Thanos goes to stroke his beard in his current predicament but finds that his left hand cannot reach. Amazed at the blood stained trimmings, he pokes what he thinks is his arm with his right index finger and seems to find he cannot feel his own touch.

"WHO CUT MY ARM OFF!!!"

Scrambling to look for his arm he bangs it against something hard and realizes that his arm is a wood sandwich.

"Oh there it is. I could go for some ale right about now. Of course, figuring out where I am, and what happened may be a little more important."

Thinks for a bit.

"NAAAAA. I want Ale!"

"Some people are trying to sleep," a red-headed woman says as she steps into the room carrying a tray under one arm. She comes over to Thanos' bedside, sets the tray down, and gently takes hold of his wounded arm.

"And you're getting no more ale until your wound heals. We don't need another drunken brawl to ruin your arm further."

She unwraps his arm and takes a small bottle from the tray she was carrying. Uncorking it, the scent of berries and herbs drifts into the room, and she drips a few drops onto the bloody gash on Thanos' arm. Using clean bandages, she re-wraps his arm tightly and heads over to Amerylin's side with her tray. The woman takes a good look at the eye, and carefully places a cool cloth over her eye.

She tends to the others in the room, keeping her eyes on the dwarf as she works.

Thanos reaches for the bottle only to fall on the floor with a loud thud.

"That was deliberate, I meant to do that."

He peeks up from under the bed to see where that bottle of berries and herbs are.

The woman stifles a laugh watching the dwarf's antics. She gathers her supplies back onto her tray under her arm and swiftly heads to the dwarf's side.

"Are you alright?" she asks, kneeling down next to the bed and offering her free hand to the dwarf.

Knowing that his good arm is bandaged and the other is well....not so good in dexterity.

Thanos reaches for the bottle of berries and herbs (The roll of the d20 was a 3, Very little chance of success)

The woman turns herself away from the dwarf's reach enough, and stifles another laugh as his arm twists just out of reach of the tray.

"What are you playing at?" she asks. "I'm only offering to help you up."

"Must Drinnnnkkkk....."

Thanos lays beside his bed in defeat mumbling to himself in a mixture of Dwarven and Undercomon. Only a few distinct words are even close to being recognizable. Something along the lines of memory, monkeys, and sucking an elf.

"I can bring you something our healer deems acceptable, but nothing of alcoholic origins. That is the best you'll get until you've healed," she offers with an eyebrow raised. "Of course, if you think you're perfectly capable of handling yourself, then there is the door," she says, gesturing to the door.

"You won't receive any more aid from this healer's home though, should you get yourself injured further afterwards."

Considering her words, Thanos contemplates his next course of action.

*I rolled a 17 for a Balance Check, and 15 for a Tumble(if necessary)*

Thanos Attempts to climb back into the bed after much thought.

The woman smiles and leaves the room, leaving the dwarf to his task. Thanos struggles a bit, but finally ends up back in his bed, his arm beginning to throb with pain.

The child hops out of her bed and heads to the door, stopping for a few moments to stare at the dwarf before running out of the room.

Roll a listen check.

*Nat 20!!!!!*

Thanos, through his throbbing pain, stops on all fours to listen carefully.

He silently reaches for his bag thinking all the while he may have something of use in response to sound.

"We know you have him here," a male voice demands from outside the door, "We saw your mother bring him here last night. Just let us through to him, and we'll leave you and your family out of this."

"You know as well as I that a healer's home is protected. You cannot cause any harm to my wards as long as they are under my care. Be gone, before I call the Warder to deal with you," you hear the red-headed woman shout.

"We don't mean to harm him here. We mean to take him out and hang him!" another man calls, arousing a few other voices chiming in on the argument.

"You will do no such thing!" the red-head says firmly. The sounds of weapons being drawn is heard, and she sighs.

"Amy, go and call the Warders. I will deal with these idiots," the woman says. There is a pause. "Do as you are told. Mother put me in charge while she is gone! I need you to do as you're told," the woman calls again as a loud crash is head from their side of the door.

Thanos scurries to his bag looking to arm himself against the unknown intruders only to find that his weapons are gone, there are no crossbow bolts to be found, and worst of all, his mug was washed!!

He takes his whetstone, rope, and flint + steel and quickly goes to fortify the door. He uses the rope wrapped around to adjacent objects in the room to bar the door from opening.

*For the skill check of Use Rope, I rolled an 8 redface *

(its better than a 1, lol)

Making what looks like a solid rigging, Thanos secures the door against intruders. He wraps the rope around the door handle, over to one of the bed posts, and drags it across the room to the other bed before securing the rope again at the door.

The sound of a struggle ensues outside the door, and the door quickly swings outward, pulling free of the ropes that "held" it in place.

"Where is that son of a tiefling?" the man shouts, glaring around the room.
