Elian Zefra: "Ooh, you squishy,".....
 "I can help a little with that -- got a nice buff that grants HP based on my level, but we probably shouldn't go above rank C for questing.".....
"We should keep in mind that Goibniu is super squishy, though.  A stiff wind will kill him right now.  We need somewhere he won't die to a stray hit.  I can't work miracles."@shylarah

The player was briefly given pause as to how exactly Goibniu should respond to a couple comments. Specifically on being called 'squishy'. Out of character he knew that it was a reference to his low defense and low health points (HP) from being low level, and a non-tank class. But, he wasn't entirely sure how to take as the Artificier Adventurer, especially when supposedly from a different country. It took him a moment longer than he wished to respond. 

"I'd, rather not my weight not be brought into the matter of this venture. It is rather, embarrassing I think is the right word?" Goibniu would clear his throat."Oh! You were referring to my durability, while putting it that way is,... strange. I unfortunately accept that my constitution will not match the, strength of some others." 

, Claudia: "No, no, it is quite all right. That was a fair assessment. Though I have to say while I could, technically, 'tank' I am not exactly exceptional at it—"
"—so it is fortunate that we have this gentleman here to do that duty for us."Randomguy

"Understandable, none the less the versatility should be beneficial to us. Especially should we find ourselves in an unfortunate circumstance. Dungeons, I hear can always be quite dangerous locales. All to even with the rewards that lie within." Goibniu would reply. 

"Should grace be upon us neither you, nor Rathello will fall upon us. Even greater that none should do so."

Claudia nodded, "Hmm...yes, now that I take a proper look at Goibniu, it appears that he is still rather new to this, er...no offence intended.Randomguy

"None taken."
Goibniu would wave his left hand dismissively. 


Temple of Ocren

Rath rattled off like a football coach..@vietmyke
Goibniu had been listening to the Rath's little speech about going into the temple. The Artificer would nod along although let out a quiet irritated huff. It was good that at least the party seemed comfortable with communication! It would help a lot with any upcoming encounters. He would stay quiet until it was clear that Rath's speech was concluded. 

"Understood."
"I would just like to add, should you find any traps mechanical in nature. Would you allow me to inspect them first? I expect the ranger among us to detect some, if not most before they're activated. In a sense it should be mentioned that I have an interest in studying devices, or matters of the natural philosophies. Eer.., I believe the modern way of saying it would be I like to 'research' the 'sciences' whenever possible."

Goibniu would shiver as the Death Knight summoned forth undead companions. The character would rub at his arms, motioning a slight discomfort with suddenly the dead rise to be used as combatants. But he wouldn't say anything aloud on the matter.
It did help to know that the Death Knight focused on the 'pet' aspect of the class. The player was betting they were focused more on crowd control from the extra buffs added to the group.

Goibniu, following the example of the Death Knight would summon his own 'pet' companion of sorts. He'd reach his left hand over to the dial at his waist. He'd spin the dial back and forth with an index finger a couple times, seemingly spinning an 'inner' ring clockwise and the outer ring of the dial counter-clockwise. Leading to a brief spark popping out from the ancient device!
An animation would play, as three ethereal 'cogs' would form in front Goibniu in a pillar.
One would stay on the floor, another would rise to midheight, while the third would rise up to roughly chest level.
Before a automaton creature would appear among the summon animation!
The cogs disappearing soon after. 
The automaton creature vaguely resembles a humanoid made out of brass from the waist up. Its general frame appears similar to a slim vase, with a tapered neck, and a half sphere at the top for the ‘head’. At the base of the conjured creature is a large cog that spins clockwise. This ‘cog’ base seems to apply a levitation force against the ground through unknown means. The lower half of its ‘torso’ resembles a massive compressed steel spring. It has two thin arms that resemble solid levers with prong like claws on their ends.
 
	On the automaton’s abdomen is a massive ‘slot’, that seems to be missing some form of gear. On either pec of its chest are two concave spherical slots as well. The head of creature has ‘eyes’ formed from horizontal shaped slits. On either said of the head or small protrusions vaguely resembling the ends of a horn.


Goibniu would do his best to stay in the 'center' of the party's entry into the temple. Or at least the third or fourth to enter. 
He was a caught up in the artistry & architecture of the building itself, rather than expected immediate danger as of yet. The mosaics of saints were rather beautiful, and oddly intact similar to the statues. Perhaps the place wasn't as ancient as vaguely expected.
Besides, that's why Rathello was entering first in front of everyone else.

"Personally, I don't quite agree with the idea of splitting up quite yet. Perhaps because I am a novice, but there's no presentation of urgency yet."
"The dorms may contain journals, or other information related to the persons who live, or.. once inhabited this temple. It may be helpful. I doubt we'll simply find a map there, but, they may have left something useful, or perhaps what their ideological pursuits were here."

"Mayhaps, I thinking about it to relaxed, but as my first venture. Being thorough of the experience to inspect all that we can, would be appreciated. I will understand if there is a reason opposed."
