New Players that asked to join waiting on them
I will be posting a new turn every 48 hours during role playing rules to give players time to interact.
To help speed up Quests during Questing rules I will post when everyone is done with their actions. Sometimes this is less than 48 hours.
Having defeated the Evil Wizard mind controlling the Noble Race of Frogmen. Lord Darkcloak has given our Party their freedom from his service.
With the pledge of service completed. Our party heads off to different parts of the land to see what they can discover. Grim, Quaid & Warcet hear rumors of a HIVE of monsters that have taken over an old dwarven Forge. They head to the ruins.
As they arrive they meet up with BadPupper another dwarven adventurer drawn by the tales of fortune.
It appears the entrance doors are currently sealed.
!search - Chingus scans the general area to find anything of interest, perhaps a dwarf-sized passage in the rubble or some kind of book. Chingus hopes for a book.
You search the surrounding area and you find dead Frog
Chingus lets out an excited yelp, "To think that these ancient ruins would hold such delicacies! Just imagine what we find inside the place!"
Chingus grabs the dead frog and places it in his pocket.
!search - Delighted by his recent find, Chingus searches again, praying for more dead frogs.
You search the surrounding area and you find Berries
Chingus strokes his beard in thought, imagining all the delectable dishes he could make with a dead frog and some berries. As soon as he learns how to cook, that is.
He places the berries in the same pocket as his treasured dead frog.
A sleepy dwarf rushes up from the path behind the party.
"Sorry I'm late, I slept in again. Did I miss anything?" says Wooly
!search
Thunk turns to the sleepy looking dwarf and shoves a morning ale into his hand. "Looks like you could use this. My friends call me Thunk 'cuz I love to make a weapon go THUNK on me enemies. They also made me an honorary dwarf a time back, so I guess that makes us brothers." Thunk, unaware of his friendly strength, slaps him on the back nearly knocking him over. "What do we call you and your dwarven friend here?"
You search the surrounding area and you find Fire Arrow x2
Chingus turns towards the approaching Dwarf, "Hail, brother! What brings you here?"
He extends a greasy hand, grinning at Wooly.
Thunk didn’t want to miss a moment of this next adventure. Hearing all the noise, gets up from the nearby campsite setup. Grinning at the arriving party Thunk proudly hollers over to the group. “It’s about time you slackers showed up. I’ve been brewing some mornin’ ale. Come over and grab a mug.”
Thunk !search for extra mugs for the group.
You search the surrounding area and you find dead Frog
Thunk tosses the dead frog into the fire. There are burnt remains of many others previously tossed.
I'll have a mug, I think thats GREAT!
That THUNK again has our backs,
Let's take a sip, lets lubricate
Liquid courage to fill up what lacks.

Chingus grabs a mug and thrusts it into the air "Here's to the lucrative science of dungeon delving!"
Chingus downs the mug, staining his beard.
Chingus waves at Thunk "Hail, friend! The name's Chingus McBingus, I study monsters!"
my bad Grim... forgot to update your account from @darklands to @norwegianbikeman
its all good a make a move tomorrow now a need to zzzz.
Another Dwarf is approaching the entrance .....
OOC: Player @lacking - Character name : Wooly
Chingus turns towards the approaching Dwarf, "Hail, brother! What brings you here?"
He extends a greasy hand, grinning at Wooly.
Wooly pulls back his horned leather cap that slipped down over his eyes before quickly taking the greasy hand. "Ah, er... um... You know... Fame fortune, and the respect of my people? The usual." He nervously laughed. "So, what seems to be the problem here? Door is stuck? I see that the door is stone. Maybe I should try..."
OOC @simplegames, if possible I would like to use my "Move through rock" skill to try and move through the door to unlock it from the other side.
Sorry I missed this post. Yes you can do this. Thunk did it.
The doors are sealed....perhaps we should knock?
Maybe look for a stick and we can pick the lock!
Chingus nods his head, "Great Idea, let's try knocking!"
!swing - Chingus knocks on the great stone door with his meaty fists.
You swing your weapon with a roll of 20
As you knock on the door with your meaty fists. I a blue glow works its way along veins in the rocks to the large pillars on both sides of the doors.
The pillars glow blue, a musically chime is heard and runes can be seen on the pillars.
As soon as the knocking stops. The glow & runes disappear.
"Wow... that's kinda cool. Can any of you guys read these scribbles (runes) on these rocks?
Chingus scratches his chin, "Hmm, let me see..."
Chingus uses his Languages skill to attempt to read the strange runes.
OOC: you have to roll a !D20 when you use a skill...
let's see what the dice say
Chingus laughs at points at the door, looking back at the others "Look, it turned blue! That's gotta mean something".
THUD THUD, BOOM BOOM BOOM,
the unarmed Chingus strikes
the door rings with hollow doom
as CRITICAL fall the questbot DICE.
testing @chestbot
you slowly open the chest and discover Enchanted Staff
OOC: For starting equipment for Chingus, would a small shield and a mace make sense?
i would go with leather armor and a mace. However if another player has some xtra armor the shield would make more sense.
You can check on the inventory link above and ask them in character.
OOC: Makes sense to me, I'll go with the leather armor and mace then. Thanks for the advice!
!scan - Chingus quickly scans the area, looking for anything else of interest.
this will be added to HiveTrek
OOC: Lol, never-mind then.
