Thrown weapons usually use Strength, actually, unless they're Finesse weapons like Daggers, in which case you can choose either Dex or Strength.

Also Uragh's proficient in Simple weapons, which includes Daggers. So if he uses Strength that should be +7 to hit and 10 damage total.

Right. What Vader is saying up there, Dusk.

She's not Disengaging. I'm taking advantage of the second condition that says, so long as I'm not using my own movement and am being moved by an outside force, such as falling past an enemy due to gravity, I don't provoke an Opportunity Attack.

Veska is simply letting go of the wall and letting gravity take her to the ground. She isn't using her movement to get down, so she still has 30 feet of movement, albeit she has to use 15 of it to stand up from being Prone.

That one's for Dusk to decide I think.

I read it as forced movt doesn't trigger an AOO, but moving voluntarily does, so if you willingly fall to avoid an enemy, it becomes a pretty grey area IMO that would have circumstantial rules because you are still choosing to move out of the creature's range, but using gravity to do it.

I think I'm fine with it.

Mainly because it's not a "free" Disengage - you've still got to worry about the falling damage and being prone at the bottom. Unless you're a cheaty Monk

Not that it matters in this case (beyond the obvious), since I just discovered that you need to see your enemy to trigger AoO. So that's yet another reason free Greater Invisibility is kinda nuts

@Mort;

If you guys entered through the lower-south tunnel, then the centipede is on a ledge by the south-side of the upper-east tunnel, about 20ft off the ground.

The body is in the north-west corner. The ledge is in the south-east corner, about 20ft off the ground. There is a 10x10ft wide pit in the middle of the room, but it has a grate over it so you don't have to worry about falling down it.

Also, I noticed you have a Heavy Crossbow in your inventory, but no bolts for it? Since you were asking about ranged attacks earlier

(...also, why three scimitars? )

It's called being prepared.

...Which is definitely why I forgot to add bolts. And more daggers. And more rope too while I'm at it.

Speaking of weapons, I've been meaning to ask: what is your Weapon of Warning? Just so I know what to steal when there's the inevitable rival-thieves encounter

I'd say it's like a curved dagger? Like one of those fancy ones in a hilt you use to show off, but never practically use.

The only dead thing Uragh can see is the "Tentapede" (totally calling it that now btw). The Kobold bodies are all up on the ledge with Veska.

Can I get a Persuasion check, Spider?

Can Jax provide Help on that? Possibly with a well-timed, "Oh yes, do tell!"

Persuasion: 1D20+4 = [13]+4 = 17

((Adv if granted.))

Bought 80 bolts, for 4 gold. That'll probably last a while, won't it..?

@Thinks: Make an Arcana check with disadvantage. You can't examine the door closely without the guards/gnome noticing.

Also I just realised I forgot to have the gnome introduce himself. So I'm just gonna retcon it to say you all exchanged names when you entered his office

His name is Barric Goldweaver.

Awwwww... That would have been my first 20 of the game

Arcana: 2D20.LOW(1)+4 = [20, 6]+4 = 10

@Mort: You can either hide off to the side of the tunnel entrance, or behind the Tentapede corpse.

And I'll let you two decide whether Uragh acts before or after Veska tells him what's going on. Or you can roll initiative for it if you can't decide

I think Uragh would want to go and hide in one of the side passages first anyways, to potentially have cover, and assure sneak damage after he can actually see what's coming towards em...

Go ahead and hide if you want

Stealth check

stealth: 2D20.HIGH(1)+6 = [6, 11]+6 = 17


Not sure if he'd have advantage or not, so it'd be 12 assuming not.

Are you other two about finished in the bank? Or is there something else you'd like to ask/do/look for?

Ah, sorry. I was waiting to see if spider had any other input at this point. Will post IC.

@Thinks:
For Greyhaven, you can make a History or Arcane check, depending on what you want to know.
For the wink, you can attempt an Insight check if you want.

So, when are we gonna get to kidnapping this gnome and some of his extended family to coerce information or compliance out of him..?
