The body is not easily moved as his upper torso is in a small hole in the floor and is stuck. All can see that it is going to take two or more men to remove him. A little dog lays on the floor partially in the way with a wound in the side of it's neck, obviously dead already.
"He's not responding? Guys, whatever got them might still be around here."
As I say that I search the room for any signs of tracks of dust or any blood marks that may reveal whether or not the goblin has left the room or is still hiding in there.
If it's needed I roll Survival for tracking on advance:
I got 10+7=17
Twilek asks hurriedly, "Resfrix, can you come in and check if the man is alright?"
Twilek checks the wound on the dog for what weapon could have caused it, suspecting it was used true to its namesake.
Heal: 19 -1 = 18
He then looks for a blood trail and assists Ian in following it. He whispers a bet, "One gold piece says it's in the kitchen, any takers?"
Perception: 11 +5 = 16
Aid Another Survival: 4 -1 = 3 Not assisted.
The blood trail left from the dog shows the footsteps of the goblin leading up to the unmoving body of Alergast and disappears under his body. His upper torso remains stuck in the closet in a hole in the floor.
Out of Character::It will take two or more men to remove the body from the hole in the floor.
Slightly terrified, I look up to Twilek, and then to Gorion:
"Gorion, sir... I have a bad feeling about this. The woman said he had confined the monster in the closet, right? What if it IS there after all, hiding or trapped? Mr Twilek, can you help me with un-stucking the poor man?"
If Gorion stops us I nod in anxiety as I follow whatever plan he may have. Otherwise, I will use whatever help I can have to get the man un-stuck. I have my eyes peeled and almost never do I look straight at the man. I look around me, careful of an ambush.
"Yes we need to move the body out from the door. Ian help me pull the body back from the door as Twilek watches to make sure nothing gets past Gorion. Salius stay by the bed room door with a spell ready in case it tried to make a break for it."
Resfrix and Ian grab the legs of the man and pull him back out into the room to see if he is still alive or savable. Once the man is clear from the closet Gorion can check to see if the goblin is still there.
Out of Character:: Resfrix, Salius is outside at the backdoor. He can not hear you tell him to wait by the bedroom door. Also the body is wedged into a hole in the closet floor.
Everyone but Salius give me a Dexterity check.
Please read the game update posts carefully. Go back and read over everything that has transpired since the scenario has begun with Amele coming to find the group for help if you have to. It helps if I don't have conflicting posts from all the players.
As the man is pulled out of the closet, Gorion looks into the closet and the hole in the floor with his sword ready.
Out of Character:: [Dexterity] Check: 11+1=12
Salius enters the house through the back and stands just inside the door. He keeps a keen eye out for the goblin in case it gets past the others. Edited: Trake on 29th Dec, 2013 - 1:30am
