Title: Time for a new and improved weighted net
Post by: Asinjin on October 06, 2018, 11:47:43 AM
Does helmet Gree react to anyone not within say ten feet of him?

Is his mouth and nose covered?

Can Disa dismissa the entangle?

Did anything of note survive the blade barrier on the body of the Gree?

Does the Blade Barrier disappear?

I call out in Gree and then Dwarven: "Blind Orcs, do you understand me?"

Do we hear any alarms or running from elsewhere?

I make a tinkering check to reset my two barrel quick draw wrist epbul (roll of 13+10 = 23 success).

I take out and put on my goggles to see if there is anything ethereal or astral around.

I see what you did there. Nice.

Ilya grabs the blank holy symbol at some point for later investigations.

Yes, a mace, ring and a cloak survives.

The helmeted gree reacts to anyone that closes within 30' of him.  he doesn't attack or change, just turning as if to face a threat.   The helmet covers his face completely, nose, ears, eyes.  It's large and blocky.. light grey in color.

So we are free to move around more than 30 feet from him without reaction.

Does the helmet appear to be a clicker in any way?  "Sewurg, is it magical?"

I cast Detect Magic then scan the helmet, the Cleric's items, and the Blind Orcs.  Please note, I don't get too close to the Orcs.  Just close enough to see if they have any magic on them.

the blind orcs don't have anything magical, the three surviving items are all magical.

I'm assuming you check the dwarf as well, he has necklace, made of what looks like gree jaw bones ( small pieces, not the whole  thing) and a magical short sword.

I'm willing to bet you see the ghost of a recently deceased Grean cleric.  I'm also willing to bet he looks pretty furious after having met his end at the dainty hands of a teenage Bard.

The blade barrier disappears, the Blind Orcs definitely react to you speaking in dwarven, however you get the feeling they are scared to speak.  It's weird to you to see such large strong creatures cowering in fear.


nothing shows up astrally or ethereally (assuming recently dead don't show)


You don't hear an alarm, but for some reason all of Sophia's rats seem to be upset beyond the battle.

Are the rats running in a particular direction away from trouble, or are they sniffing out what seems to be new trouble?

Only if they become undead ghosts or ascend in a different than typical way.

No.. however they quiver/tremble rhythmically.  Sophia after talking with them seems to think they are sensing a tremor, or vibration that we aren't sensitive enough to feel.

Is this sensation something organic that they've felt before like an earthquake or large creature burrowing through earth and stone, or is it unnatural like an explosion or magic effect?  I know Sophia can't get exact details, but I'm hoping she can relay the question to the rats in a way they understand.  Something like: "Is that the big scary garbage golem running around below us?" or "Did some Wizard make something go boom?" or something along those lines.

Dissa asks Sophia if the rats can tell if it is coming from 'dark helmet*' over there

(* other options were 'Clicker-Constable', 'bucket-head", 'Johnny-5')

" It's coming form everywhere"  as Sophia's response when she tries asks where the source of the vibrations is.

"It's unnatural" is the only response they can muster when trying to describe the vibration farther.


Soon after the vibrations stop, and the "helmeted gree" starts moving towards the stairs ot the right side, which would take him up. 
 
Does anyone block him?

If it’s not too late, Ilya will try diplomancy (Saewurg, help me out here): “Wait! Don’t leave yet! We have so many questions...What is this place? Who are you people? Why are you doing whatever this is?”

Diplomacy check d20+16 (assuming I get an aid another bonus from Saewurg) = 26.

He seams to ignore you as he backs up the steps.
