Blaeringr Posted December 21, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted December 21, 2023 I'll try to work up a map tonight that should help clarify the layout a bit more. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daltar Posted December 21, 2023 Clone Share Posted December 21, 2023 Thank you for the map! Hmmm lets see... I think technically we could drop onto the goblins and start the fight, but the door out is closer to them than us... so we couldn't block them from leaving, at least not easily. We suppose that going down the spire ramp should lead us to the door they are going to leave from... so with some luck if we hustle and go down we may be able to intercept them.

farothel Posted December 21, 2023 Clone Share Posted December 21, 2023 are we at the top of the tower, or is there still more to go in that direction. Because if there is, we can go that way and take the other spiral staircase back down, which leads to the door we need.

omegoku Posted December 21, 2023 Clone Share Posted December 21, 2023 Yeah, we could try sneak back to the door. Would be good to leave anyone with decent ranged attacks up there to rain death on them from above. But that might result in split party and that never ends well.

Blaeringr Posted December 22, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted December 22, 2023 (edited) Re: goblins escaping - that door goes out into the sunlight, and you've learned they won't be very inclined to take that option. The ramp you're on doesn't appear to go down into that room. You don't actually see another exit from that hall aside from the main entrance. So that's a bit odd. You are not close to the top of the tower. Judging from its height outside, and your height above the hall below, you're not even halfway to the top.

Blaeringr Posted December 22, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted December 22, 2023 The hall is dimly lit because of light coming in an opening higher up - one of the other "tunnels" you saw from outside. The tunnel spiraling up is quite dark, and those without darkvision can only see thanks to Weylin's magic.

Blaeringr Posted December 23, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted December 23, 2023 Not sure what my posting will be like for a bit. Stuck in a room at work with a guy who's been coughing for weeks, and whatever he's spreading hit me hard today.

farothel Posted December 23, 2023 Clone Share Posted December 23, 2023 I'm traveling today, so I won't be able to post anyway. But I do think we have the start of a plan, if the others who haven't replied could do so with their remarks/questions/improvements.

Blaeringr Posted December 28, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted December 28, 2023 Thanks all. For clarification: Khaine and Chelia are climbing down? Kek is covering which door? Maybell and Weylin are staying on the ledge overlooking the chamber the Khaine and Chelia are climbing down into?

Dr Jackal Posted December 29, 2023 Clone Share Posted December 29, 2023 The choice is between the main door and the inner door, correct? Kek is more concerned about a runner alerting the rest of the hive, so he would be at the inner door. Funny story, I once played a module where the PCs went into a goblin lair, and that ended up being one long running battle from the front door all the way to the door of the boss's chamber. We had like three runners get away. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaeringr Posted December 29, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted December 29, 2023 (edited) Your party climbed a ladder in the rock face to enter the tower and have not actually been to or through the "main door." The main door is now visible in this large room you are overlooking. So below (down the rope) and in the south east corner of the hall you're overlooking is the main door. If you backtrack just a little down the corridor that led to the ledge/platform you're on, you will quickly get to the entrance at the top of the ladder, but it doesn't look like that tunnel goes directly to the hall with the main door, no. Your options as far as where to go are up the spiral (to unknow), down the spiral (to elevated entrance you came through and then further down to unknown), or climb down the ledge Chelia and Kaihne are currently climbing down (and basically no longer hidden now - the goblins see them now coming right down into their room, so an encounter is starting) Edited January 4 by Blaeringr (see edit history) Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
