"Aye, we survived, no thanks to your orders...all I have to say to you is monsters ." The Rogue glared at the guards. He was still carrying the bow he couldn't use, but he hoped he could at least trade it for a better short-bow when they got back to the smith. And he knew the fighter would...

"On the day of the full moon if I am not mistaken...Aye brother...I must agree. And we must make sure to take enough silver with us to meet our needs the instant we return."

"A good plan," he conceded to the fey magic user, while he appraised the bow to determine if he could use it effectively. Aside to the Cleric he added, "You did check that the brake was off?"

"Aye brother", the Rogue replied. "A fine sword for the fighter, an equally fine bow for me, (if I can use it), and 195 gold coins for us all to share.

With equal caution, just in case, the slender Rogue withdraws his thieves toolkit from his backpack, and, without a glance at the rest of the party, immediately begins probing the lock with his favourite lockpick. [If repeatedly unsuccessful, he will suggest that Vargon attempt to break the hinges f...

Gathering his bow, crowbar and lantern, xavier carefully approaches the locked chest.

With utmost caution, he examines the lock for traps.

Leaving the last skeleton to Caam and Irian, Xavier, dagger in hand, rushes to attack the monster.

Cursing even louder as the arrow falls into the flames and is consumed by their last heat, Xavier gives up on the fire and merely looses an arrow at their opponent. Before the arrow even strikes, he drops the shortbow to draw the dagger, and rush forward to interpose himself between the monster and ...

[They can run across rounds if they can't be carried out in a single round...sorta thought that was the point of carrying out combat like this...so not every round had to be explicit...if I can have 2 actions, then those are my actions for this round...next round, next two actions etc.]

With a curse, Xavier drops the crowbar and unslings his shortbow from his shoulder. Rubbing the head of his arrow in the patch of flaming oil to ignite it, he fires the flaming arrow at the corpse monster. [If this proves successful, he will attempt to repeat the action as long as the monster is far...

Pausing at the entrance to the new cavern, Xavier hurls his lit lantern into it, to light the gloom and allow the party to assess any new threats which may be lurking. If it is clear of additional danger, he continues to pursue and attack the remaining skeletons. Should additional threats be reveale...

Glancing back at Charn to make sure he's safe, Xavier follows Vargon in his pusuit of the remaining skeletons, ready to engage them repeatedly for as long as he has sufficient health.

Healed, and as good as his word, Xavier nods gratefully to the Cleric, then takes up position if front of him, to renew his attack on the suddenly fleeing skeletons.

"Brother Charn!" Xavier paused a moment, head hanging with exhaustion. "If you can brother, I pray you heal us now while we have the breathing space. If you'll do so for me first, I'll guard you until you yourself can be healed. If not, then you'll forgive me if I allow the more hale ...

Realising quickly that his rapier would do little harm to creatures without flesh, Xavier ignored it as he dropped his shortbow, instead pressing his crowbar into service as an improvised club, and attacking the nearest skeleton. He planned to remain on the periphery of the melee, using his skill at...

Oh...I didn't notice the edit to the waiting list. Thought nobody was waiting.

Do PM Nathan too. Think there's room since we appear to have lost Cj.

Won't change your load class, so I wouldn't bother unless he doesn't give it back. But he will. Clerics always do. If they're Good.

Look up "Carrying Capacity" in the rules...

As you carry more or less stuff, the amount of weight you're carrying changes. With varying impacts on your speed of movement etc.
