While pondering how to get past the violet demon arch, a roguish human approached. After some questioning, SWAG agreed to allow the rogue Kerylen to join the group, and he proceeded to disable the demon arch.
SWAG entered a flooded armory -- a waterfall cascaded through an opening in the wall, pouring water into the room. The water covered the floor and filled a pit in the center of the room. Along the edges were weapon racks with dozens of piercing and slashing weapons, along with a Luminous Order knight, tied up and unconscious. Guarding the room -- two troglodytes. SWAG engaged the troglodytes while DeKelley healed Tybalt of the Luminous Order. Another troglodyte them shot up out of the pit, slowing descending to the floor and casting spells to attack SWAG. After a lengthy 1 1/2 minute battle, the heavily injured troglodytes fled by diving into the water pit, and SWAG was victorious.
Odette then volunteered to swim into the pit to see where the troglodytes went. She found a flooded ranged weapon armory room below, the weapons destroyed by the water. A flooded stairway went up at the other end of the room. She swam up and was immediately attacked by heavily armored troglodytes with halberds. She was heavily wounded, but barely escaped.
SWAG then prepared to swim to engage the other troglodytes. Petra, in her full plate armor, was not up for swimming. With assistance she removed her armor and was buffed with mage armor and shield of faith. Petra, the high charisma, blonde teenage paladin, waering only her standard issue Luminous Order lingerie and longsword, then swam with SWAG through the water to fight the troglodytes.
SWAG swam to the other room, a bludgeoning weapon armory, and engaged in yet another lenghty battle with the heavily armoed troglodytes. After another 1 1/2 minutes of skirmishing, SWAG was victorious.

I don't think we find Tybalt in the first room. I think it was in the "bludgeoning weapon armory" room.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Brave Kerylen was the first to see that hole in the floor led to the "ranged weapon armory" room.
And don't forget Kerylen 10 failed swim checks in a row. That has to be a record. The worst part was that he made the first check... so all the rest he was underwater.
11 rounds into the battle, he pops up to be critically hit.
He had the "new-guy" luck going for him. :)
