Prelude

Did you see that?
Aye, I saw it.
He hits like a mule he does. That one's going places.
Not likely, not unless he stops thinking like a mule.
C'mon Caleb, I think he's fine - the rest of the team will do the thinking for him.
We'll see.

Tale of the Tavern

"Who him? No, he still gots a pulse, he'll be fine. Just top off his mug so he gots something to look forward too when he wakes up. Young fool thinks he can drink, Pah!"

So anyway me, Drago here, and four other guys show up about the same time looking to run the Biskay, well actually I've been here about two weeks waiting looking for a more talented group, but I got tired of waiting and hell, 5 inept thugs will at suck up most of the damage. So anyway we go and sign up as a group and head out to looking down the hole, and I'm thinking about asking if anyone brought light, rope, and such, besides me: And it turns out the guy with two swords brought stuff like that, even a few tools, good man there.

But anyways before I can even asks about our marching formation, shaggy here goes running down the steps, The rest of us start following down, me checking the steps since their known to be tapped in Biskay when I here the ghouls under the step going for my legs, I figure since laughing boy here is already at the bottom I'll just grab the ghoul's arm and keep it pined while Drago chops it up toot sweet, Little do I know that their two of them down their, The other one claws me up and its poison starts to numb up my arms, luckily I'm a Dwarf so it don't effect me too fast. I throw my self down the steps so that the other could get past. So of course Wasabi, I just call him Wasabi cuss he ferign, stops right were I was and tries to fight the ghouls thought the steps while Drago is fighting them under the steps, and no one can get past Wasabi.

Wasabi and Drago get froze, Two swords kicks wasabi down the stairs and the rest of them finish the ghouls off. So now Drago decides it might be best if I check for traps and listen for critters before he runs off and everyone thinks it a great ideal is we plan how to position our selves before we start fighting, and off we go. The first room we run into is full of stock skeletons, turns out both me and Wasabi are in touch with higher powers so all through the delve we just turn most of the undead away, and let Drago, the guy with the shield, the elf and two swords finish them off. We start searching room by room, and since I'm in front checking for traps I pick which direction we go and everybody starts doing whatever I say, What's that all about.

So we hit a few more room with more skeletons and zombies and find this door with a Hex symbol on it, Oh you heard of it, I figured they recycle things like that. SO now we know to look for a key and we keep searching. We come up to a curtain and spot some real live gnolls on the other side, I figure we pull down the curtain, throw some sharp things at them while we got em surprised and then rush em. But by the time I get all 5 thugs up to speed and everyone is in place the gnolls here us and rush us as soon as the curtain falls, luckily the guy with the shield steped up to meet their charge so that they didn't plow right into two swords and the elf who had decided to carry bows into a delve for some reason. We slaughter the gnolls and continue on to another room with 4 gnolls playing cards, deciding that 1) shoot stuff at them followed by 2) rush em, was a bit too complicated for them, I just go straight to 2). Next thing I know all 6 of us are hacking at the last gnoll whose flat out on the floor and no one watching the door, just as the biggest gnoll I even seen steps in with a few flunky and start hacking with this transparent axe, yep this vary same one I got.

We hack em up and find a Hex shaped key on em and decide to head back to the Hex door, that when we find out that two sword, who had volunteered to map is apparently one of those mirror readers and we ended up having to trail all over the whole frecking place over again before we found the dammed door. So we go in and get whacked by two shadows, wraiths or some ghost undead things and its turns out that the Guy with the shield and me are the only ones that can harm them, which we do with great alacrity. We find a chest full of, silver. And a few magic things like some knock-off elf made Scale armor and a few Quick-Quafftm healing potions.

We head out a get a free pass for Fridays delve and I decided to use My share of the delve to rent a old farm house out side of town and get these twits in training for things like searching a room, standing guard and such.

Don't look like he's going to wake up soon, you get his legs and we'll drag his sorry carcass outside, and he was wondering why I decided to bring that wheelbarrow along."
