Eloras looks up at which height the first windows are to be seen while he strings his bow, smacking his lips.

"I like this tower very much. Very much."
Nov 6, 2025 11:40 pm
Do you enter the tower? How?

OOC:
Are there windows? At which height?
Nov 7, 2025 12:35 pm
There are many small windows, scattered across the face of the tower in a seemingly patternless way. They are too small for a person to enter.

The shadowed doorway gapes before you.

Borz tries the doorway.
Nov 7, 2025 7:35 pm
It's open. It leads into a shadowy hall. Do all of you enter?
Nov 7, 2025 10:10 pm
Eloras looks back and around, an arrowed nocked in and ready to draw, following Borz cautiously...
Nov 7, 2025 10:47 pm
Borz looks for something to make a torch of.

As you enter the shadowy doorway, in the hall ahead of you torches flare alight in a suspiciously coincidental way. There's no visible source of ignition. Just the torches in the sconces, casting eerie shadows from the crude clay statutes that stand interspersed with sconces along each wall. There are ten torches and eight statues. The hallway runs between the statues, five on each side, to a further and even darker doorway deeper in the tower.

Borz collects 2 torches one for either hand and carefully advances. Holding one low to the ground the other overhead. Coiled poised to strike

OOC:
Please give me a marching order. Borz, then: … then: … then: …

Hanford will move behind Borz and stay back about ten feet for a bow shot if needed.
Nov 8, 2025 3:20 am
Noxmorte will stay by the door and be the last in line once everyone is inside.
Nov 8, 2025 1:56 pm
Moving into the hallway, you notice that your skin crawls when you pass under the shadows of the eight statues. There's a sense of weight in the air between the statues.

Noxmorte has just passed from the doorway into the hallway when the shadows of the statues take palpable forms among you.

Three shadows circle Borz; two confront Hanford; two target Eloras; and the other three assail Noxmorte.
OOC:
They are DS 12 to hit, DS 10 to defend. Each shadow has 1 Luck. Please make your rolls: one attack, and the appropriate number of defends.

Raising his shield Noxmorte charges at the nearest shadow.

Borz didn't stop to think if the shadows were incorporeal or not. He had a lightsource they were darkness. He knew the light was both a literal and figurative enemy to the dark.

So he struck at the two on his flanks.
OOC:
I will go back and check, I think this is a level up

With quick reflexes Hanford will fire off the arrow he has ready then draw his knife.

OOC:
Scratch two shadows, Borz -1* Luck, Hanford -1 Luck … waiting for Eloras @dominic

*@jomsviking I think your defense roll should be 2d6+1 not 2d6+5, can you explain?
Nov 8, 2025 11:22 pm
OOC:
it is only 2d6+1

I didn't pay attetion to the autofill setting
