Ember draws and fires her third arrow at the closest hungry dead.
Rolls
Shortbow to hit - (1d20+5)
(11) + 5 = 16
Shortbow damage - (1d6+3)
(5) + 3 = 8

ROUND FOUR
(this was preceded by round three)
Ember pulls another arrow, nocks it, and draws, squeezing past Aanbo to follow Arya down the passage. As soon as she sees the undead monster that Mother Arkon is attacking, she looses the arrow, which flies true and takes the monster in the back of the head.
Hungry 4 takes 8 piercing damage and collapses, the animating magic destroyed.
The party waits for a few heartbeats, and then, when nothing else attacks, they begin to relax.
For surviving the attack of four ghouls, each PC gains 100 XP.
Aanbo (27/27)
Arya (10/10)
Chase (14/14)
Ember (9/9)
Lyrel (9/9)
Morton (9/9)
Myrtha (17/18)
Theran (18/18)

Hello - I'm Lyrel. Olpert have strengthen the Dungoun Busters by adding me to your roster. I have discussed the problem with Ramen and I will be assisting you with my wizard abilities for the time being.
Even if those 3 ghouls took most of my magic.
The high elf looks around at the group as small red flames licks off her hair without burning her.
They did mention your names, but I don't know the faces that goes with the names

"Sometimes I really hate being right," Theran mutters to no one in particular. Turning to the newcomer, he pauses and seems to ponder something before sighing.
"I have no time for subtlety. Strip down. Once we verify you don't have the tattoo, we'll discuss matters further." The wood elf sounds tired, but something about his tone makes it clear it isn't a joke or a hazing ritual for newcomers.

"Now isn't that broken." as he looks over the roasted ghoul bodies.

"Blunt, but appropriate," says Aanbo, removing the cloth around his nose and mouth. "Lyrel, is it? Please oblige. It is something simple for a Dungeon Buster, yet it carries a very heavy weight as I'm sure was explained to you by those who sent you and those you've met."
Aug 4, 2025 4:25 pm
Oh I'm not shy. Lyrel strips down and makes a slow pirouette for all to see her full nakedness.
Now its your turn... Says the naked elf holding a sword and a crystal bracelet.

Aanbo smiles. He doffs his robes, his body chiseled from granite as though from a novice sculptor that gave up halfway. His bruises are misshapen and scars crooked, but he has no tattoos to otherwise mar the layers of dust and dirt that settled into his wrinkled folds.
"Well met," he says, fixing his robes once he has proven himself to Lyrel and gesturing for her to do the same. "I am Aanbo, of the Dungeon Busters. Was that fire from you? A welcome warmth in these cold tunnels."

Chase seeing what is going on."we can all vouch for each other here. I will not be taking my armor off. Glad to have some more magic on board."
Aug 4, 2025 6:22 pm
Yes, that was my fire, and this... She points to the flames in her hair. Is a fey glamour that doesn't want to end.
Just want to get that out of the way.
Shy or double standards? Lyrel gives Chase a seciptial look.

"Must be some powerful priest about to be keeping these guard/pets around." as he examines the dead ghouls more. "They will not be expecting us coming." He appears a bit revolted by the undead that he gazes upon.

"Do not be so sure. We fell some.of their martial members and trogs, they may well expect us to get past the early deterrents," Theran says as he removes basic leather armor and robes, showing the newcomer he has no spiral tattoo. Physically, the wood elf is nothing special... he has a typical elven litheness to his build, but is otherwise unremarkable.
Once Lyrel is satisfued, he will work to don his equipmemt again.

Morton surmises, "We are indeed up against quite a foe." and loses any further interest in the ghoul bodies. "Let us hope this tunneling isn't too vast and it appears we are on the right way give or take to have been assaulted."

"Neither, I have nothing to prove. My brother and sister Busters know who we are."

"I will vouch for everyone else," says Aanbo as he introduces Lyrel to the other Dungeon Busters. He includes Ember in the group, but chooses not to get into the weeds that she technically isn't a member.
He works to give Theran enough time to equip himself, and asks of Lyrel, "If you have spoken to Olpert and Ramne, you no doubt know of our mission. Do you have any questions?"

Myrtha nods at Lyrel during presentations, but she was clearly not removing her bulky scale-mail to reassure the newcomer. She moves through the charred husks and recovers Reptile’s hand axe while the others talked. As soon as she had rearranged her weapons and set her spear for more scouting, she spoke to the others: "We’d better move."

How many exits from this monster dining grotto?OOC:
There is only one exit from this feeding chamber (the way you entered). There are three tunnel branches that the party has seen but not yet explored, as seen in this map:
Just outside the feeding chamber, the passage forks, with one branch going north (back towards the cellar) and the other branch going west (unexplored).
Following the northern passage would take you winding northwest to a four-way intersection, with the northeast passage leading back to the cellar entrance. The other two passages lead west and south (both unexplored).

Who is the dead guy on the floor?
What are you hoping to find down here?
Lyrel thinks for a moment.
I think that it for the questions at the moment. She says as she buttens up her bridges

"Don't know, and the people running this cult," Theran replies.
"Everyone ready?"
