And back I am. Exhausted, certainly, and may need a while for that to wear off, but I'm once more here to read and even write!

Should have been writing posts. Took part in D&D shenaniganry instead. Got to fix that tomorrow.

There's a lot of backlog here on my end. I'm trying my best to lessen it, but replies might be less frequent for a time. A welcome change from the nothing doing I went through though! Thanks partners!

Bio

I suppose it is about time for me to copypaste fill in some information about myself over here just as well. Only took me a few years to getting around to do it.

I am a married individual in my twenties from the country some people dare claim does not exist. The Finland conspiracy is an old joke, you can stop with it now. Not a native speaker of the English language by any means, though I did begin studying it exceptionally early for our country's standards. I suppose it was some sort of a test case. With that out of the way though, what more should I be saying here...
  • I like being nice to people. If one needs to ask why, well that alone is reason enough.
  • I play and Dungeon Master Dungeons and Dragons, both offline and in the past also over here.
  • I enjoy OOC chatter, be it planning the RP or a more casual exchange (not that RP'ing is that serious). I can make do without, but don't be afraid to talk to me.
  • Whatever the case, I'm here to have fun and hone my writing abilities!
I do think that should about cover it, yes.

Thanks for stopping by I suppose! I do also have a Discord account, but I prefer to start anything RP related on the site. At least with people I don't know from the past, that is! But hey, now if you are a longer time contact of mine and happened to read this, now you know and can ask!

I'm aiming to have a post up on Saturday @13org!
As far as you can see, the entirety of this hallway is covered in them with the exception of the two pathways. Unless you missed something before this point, there do not seem to be other ways forward @Norschtalen. Would you like to make an IC post of the warning?

And just to be clear, Ashkar Brannor is still welcome to make the Perception check.
I rolled a 15 for perception. Kyra will be looking the same place as everyone else.

You note a loose stone slab on the stairs. The two to go before you were lucky for it to not send them sliding to the sea of fungi.
Thank you @Ryonara.

The stairs look fine to you, but as far as it comes to the trails you are rather convinced that something is off with them. They do not look the same, but you just cannot place your finger on what causes that exactly. Perhaps @The Harbinger of Ferocity can help you out there?
If we head towards the mushrooms. Anything around there like in the mushrooms, at the bottom of the steps, or even the steps themselves. Kobolds are tricky creatures and I wouldn’t be surprised if they took advantage of their flying ability to avoid ground based traps like trip wires or pressure plates.

I have the information you glean from your investigation at hand. I'm just going to need a Perception check to go with that Investigation before I hand them over.

On a related note, given the huntsman has a keen, animal nose, would it be possible to scent trail which path is more heavily used or does the ambient environment of the pervasive damp, dark cave and its mushrooms blot all of that out? I am an assuming a Perception check if it is even possible to glean which way is the most likely used, @Hekazu?

Perception sounds right to me. What happens with Parum may however affect it.
@Hekazu

If we aren’t being pressed forward, Parum would take a moment to investigate the area for any traps or ambushes. 14


The area you are currently in or where you are heading to?
If I recall, there are two branching paths through the fungus riddled cave, @Hekazu?

Indeed. The whole floor is more or less covered in shrooms like a forest would be in undergrowth, two paths having been treaded into the sea of fungi. One straight onward from the stairs that head down without the need to leap ten feet, the other further away to the side.
You land your attacks, @Lucius Cypher, the second having the desired wing cutting impact.

Combat is over. Quiet returns to the cavern as the Fog Cloud slowly dissipates and Torus's giant, snickering hyena form looks to you for your next move. @The Harbinger of Ferocity@Ryonara@Lucius Cypher@Norschtalen
Another of the flying irritants bit the dust as its evasive manoeuvres had thought the slash to come in earlier and it was still in the middle of regaining full control of its flight pattern when the sword was finally swung. The heavy weapon pushed the small monster before itself with its weight more than it cut into it at first, but soon the space where movement was free ran out. Metal didn't strike stone as loudly as it could have, thanks to both concern for the weapon's fighting shape and the now corpse that laid on the floor, leaving a pool of blood behind itself. Much like the one that had been bitten apart by Torus.

The druid leapt for the last target, hopping straight into the air… or so they'd hoped. The jump covered more horizontal ground that had been intended, leaving the transformed druid's nasty fangs snapping at empty air without there being any need for the kobold to dodge in the first place. But the sight before it certainly put concern into its expression. It saw the numbers the enemy had, as well as their size. This wasn't going to work out. If only it would still have the chance to run, it would be taken without hesitation. That much was clear from its body language alone.

Oh, we were using the flanking rule? I had forgotten. Doesn't matter in this case even if we hadn't been by the order of the rolls. Either way, target is slain and we move on to Torus's turn. Who seems to miss with a natural one. I'll be writing the post shortly.
