Return and go get the crown

Wow, we didn't get the crown. How did that happen X_x

It's unfortunate that the embed tag is a bit iffy with attached objects.

I can't seem to make it so that I can rip off a person's head.

Morul + Ironblood > Dumed + Zas.

{Overall: 2/4}

You look around the room for anything that could resemble a spear.

{Spotting: 19/20}

You notice that one of the guards is carrying an exceptional steel spear. He's also looks very strong and imposing.

There's also a broken wooden cage. You might be able to break off one of the bars to use it as a spear.

The dead dwarf seems to have been some sort of recruit. Perhaps he might have something of interest on him.


EDIT: Retroactive nerf!

In an attempt to (hopefully) improve my writing, narrative skills, and dice-fu, I'm going to host this RTD adventure.

The adventure takes place in a DF universe, so no magic or guns. The skills are being trimmed down a bit to avoid large combat formulas. Try to avoid running headfirst into suicide.

I'm going to be using a wide variety of dice. Starting with simple d4's for determining the general idea of the event. Then, I use die with more sides for more complex events. I'll probably hold off on some of the less prominent rolls (say, initiative and damage, since you can figure those out easily).

I'll grab the first (sane) post and use that as his action. Each action can consist of multiple parts, so don't be afraid to do "Throw rock at the elf, then charge at him" instead of "Pick up rock".

Anyway, let's give this a go. First poster gets to choose Cenath's last name and a basic skills (Swordsdwarf, Digger, etc.)

You've finally been released from jail! The sheriff has unlocked your cage and left you with a meal.

You are in a prison. There is an unlocked door that leads outside. Two guards are standing guard in the room. Outside, you can hear the sounds of a bustling fortress. Next to you is the leftovers from your free prison meal. Farther away is the dead body of a dwarf. It seems that the hammerer just finished his shift.

Um, A. What are you using to determine who gets hit, when someone fails?
and B. You didn't understand what I meant by twitch, I meant I had quick reflexes, not that I jump out of my skin at everything.....

Logically, it would be the person nearest to the chest at the time of your action.
If we took the order just now

CJ (100)
Tehstefan (95)
Flintus10 (55)
Jetsquirrel (21)
Stonemt (9)
Frelock (6)
Kilakan (5)
Blah28722 (3)

It would probably be Frelock. It'd fit quite well too, since he tried to search the chest got a 2.

In this case, it seemed to be a random choice.

Elves probably get composite wood weapons, seeing as trees don't drop razor-sharp pieces or ready-made weapons all that often.

This would probably limit them to whips (rope), blunt items (say, a bat.), pointy weapons (spear?), and bows.
