((Ulmwin was staying at hand, Coljin circled the block, and you can all have met up with Dornikal to discuss your next moves. ))

(He has bullseye, i will keep ot as that and use his hands to cover some light coming off

It's not very effective, you now see the larger space is maybe roughly 60 feet or so in diameter, which you are now making shadow puppets on the back wall. The the far two thirds of the room is covered in water. Ripples seem to indicate that something entered the water recently. From your position, there are four other tunnels leading out of this chamber, though one on your right can barely be called that. The one on your left can be reached without entering the water, but the other three (two across the room, and one to your right) are at least partially submerged. It is difficult to tell if that is by only a few inches or a few feet.

Maji points the light at the ripples first and starts to look around trying to figure where they could have gotten. He looks for trails of blood or someother clues as to which tunnel to go down.

Surv [1d20+5] = 2+5 = 7

It's hard to say, there's be some traffic down the other dry to tunnel, but you can't be sure how long or when, and any indication of the submerged tunnels use is underwater or washed away.

Dornikal is glad to be remembered and is ready to get moving somewhere, preferably somewhere with an outhouse. He will follow Holger and Randy.

((So Holger Randy and Dornikal are accompanying Holger? Gnomes going too?))

(( Holger is accompanying Holger? Did he use his wild magic to make a twin while we weren't looking? ))

((He's certainly capable of it!))

Maji, not knowing where to go, tries to listen for more sounds, hoping to follow them that way.

(I am assuming by dry to tunnel you mean the areas that aren't water logged and the tunnel)

((Yeah, don't know where the 'to' came from, the only dry (relatively) ones are the one you came in and the one to your left. Let me have a Perception check.))

The guards know Coljin so he’s not sure how he’ll get past them.

((By taking a route that doesn't lead right past them?))

---

The middle of the wet tunnels has the briefest of ripples lapping out of it. Either whatever set off the ripples went that way, or something is waiting and trying to stealthy farther along.

Maji presses the light against himself to make very little light show through as he slowly goes into the middle tunnel.

Stealth [1d20] = 8

((I'm assuming you mean middle of the three flooded ones?))

Maji takes 1 fire damage as he wades out into the flooded tunnel, ripples moving concentrically ahead of him. It is fairly shallow as he reaches the center of the room, only up to a little over his ankles, but deepens rapidly as he approaches the middle tunnel and takes another 1 fire damage.

((It is about mid thigh currently, but seems steady there for now. Are you going to proceed down the tunnel?))

Maji stops pressing it against himself (fire hot!) and turns it to the nearest wall so little light shows through. He continues to wade into the water, going deeper into the tunnel.

Bright light foods forth, but you turn it to point at the wall so at least it's not extending down the tunnel, and keep slogging forward. It's slow going (difficult terrain), but doesn't seem to be getting deeper.

((Give me a Perception check please.))

((Softly singing: "Don't you know, you never split the party....." ))

Per [1d20+5] = 17+5 = 22

(You guys wanted him to check on things)

Maji notices two things. Firstly, there is a faint cold blue glow from the tunnel ahead, and secondly, that something is moving through the water towards him, sending ripples lapping against his legs...

Holger, Randy and Dornikal leave the gnomes on the north side of the river and head towards the barracks/command post and infirmary.

((I'll take a Perception check from Tess.))

Apparently she's been getting bored

Per: 1d20+4 = [4] = 8

Three of her party members slog through the rainy afternoon on their way to follow up on things at the infirmary, passing unseen by Tess where she waits by the bakery to confront street kids.

Maji presses himself against the wall, pulling out his staff to be ready to strike if it's hostile.

Something moves under the surface of the murky water and you feel something swipe at your legs...

((It doesn't seem friendly, you can take your held attack first.))
