daggers do suck, but magic-users are not known for their hand to hand combat prowess

our initiative:


hobgoblin's initiative:

now, again the rules are a bit unclear on what happens when a monster has already failed its morale check, but for the sake of making things interesting, i will roll it again

this time it passes the check, which means we are in trouble as it attacks us again

an it misses badly, leaving us with a wide open counter

we hit!



we have defeated the goblin!



for our troubles in defeating it, we have gained and take its treasure of


we can now pass forward through the portcullis, although, if people want, we can try to regain some of our lost hp by resting first

fuck yeah!

probably should rest first? I feel like the fact that the hobgoblin was able to theoretically one-shot us at our current hp means that it would be... precarious, to say the least, if we continue this way

Take a break. Let's .

That was more trouble than what it was worth

okay, we rest up. of course, to do so we have to risk a wandering monster

R15. Healing and resting:

If you want to regain lost hit points and do not have any magic means to do so, you may stop at an entry and rest. When you decide to rest, follow these steps:

1.

Subtract 1 day's rations from your character sheet. If you have no rations, subtract 2 hit points because of hunger.

2.

Roll 1d6. If you roll a 1, a wandering monster surprises you as you sleep. (The monster finds you even if you are invisible.) Refer to entry

R14

(Wandering Monster Encounters) for details on how to run the encounter.

3.

If you do not encounter a wandering monster while you are resting, add 1 hit point to your hit point score on the character sheet.

4.

You may study your spell book and regain any spells you lost so far during the adventure. Return to your current entry.

we do not, so we recover a hit point and can be on our way

4/5

we r so squishy

The portcullis falls as you pass under it. Make a saving throw vs. wands. If your saving throw succeeds, you take no damage. If your saving throw fails, you take 1d4 points of damage.
You may jump forward as the portcullis falls (entry ), or you may jump backward (entry ).

Saving throw: (our save vs wands is a 14)

we failed our save and get hit by the portcullis. ouch!



3/5

Ouch! Rest again?

i'm gonna make the executive call that you have to decide whether to jump forward or backward first

Backward

some men just want to watch the world burn...


however, you are outvoted, so we go!

You are on Castle Level I. This dark hallway is 5 feet wide and 78 feet long. A closed portcullis blocks the east end. Double doors stand at the hallway's west end. You cannot open the portcullis or the doors.
Stables line the north and south walls of the room. Straw fills all of the stables.
Two sets of spiral staircases lead from this room. The door to the southwest staircase stands 5 feet from the double doors. The door to the northwest staircase stands behind the stables along the north wall.
Beyond the stables to the east, two doors line the north wall, and three doors line the south wall. A carved sign has been hung on each door. The signs on the north doors are in Common and read, from west to east, "Stairs," and "Food Storage." The signs on the south doors are also in Common and read, from west to east, "Blacksmith," "Kitchen Entrance," and "Kitchen Exit,"
