Grondar

Grondar:

The Revered Mother's priest nods his head as he listens to the others. "Your thoughts reflect my own. One group scouts the far side entrance while another group approaches the front. Of course, Farian and Virae are best qualified for the first group. Oran, Senoia and I will be the second ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Afraid we’re going to run off without ya?” Senoia retorts still laughing. “Don’t worry, we’re still on point.”
"Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of chaperones for you two..." Grondar replies with a mischievous grin.

"Well if that jus' isn't tah most disgusting thing I ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Now that’s my kind of foe! I just stood there and let me smash him!”
Senoia's comment brings a smile to Grondar's face. She certainly doesn't lack for enthusiasm...

“Their food, would be my guess,” Oran offers when Grondar indicates the tub. “Drakkimor always told us to leave mage ...

Grondar

Grondar:

They rush into what appears to be a laboratory of some kind to find a startled mind flayer and two trolls. The fight is short and very one-sided as the dwarves make short work of the disgusting creatures.

The room is gruesome, and appears devoted to some kind of mage study or alchemy ...

Grondar

Grondar:

They make their way slowly and quietly into the basement. This level looks much like those above and tracks in the dust and debris on the floors indicate that most of the traffic came from one hallway. Looking that way, they can see light under the far door and evidence of movement ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“This is no partnership,” Oran counters. “The Mind Flayers are the masters here. This explains why those trolls outside wouldn’t chase us. They were being dominated and were obeying orders."
"That's a lot of power, if the mind flayers can do that," Grondar says. "Trolls aren't terribly ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Not surprisingly, trolls appear from the stairwell and the dwarves set to work. The battle is bloody, but the dwarves are doing well.

Then, some strange creature emerges from behind them. A wave of... pain... sweeps outward from the creature, encompassing many of the dwarves. Grondar ...

Grondar

Grondar:

The ground floor has clearly been scavenged by others already, leaving nothing for the dwarves to find. Soon, they meet back in the main intersection of the hall.

Grondar is about to say something when Darkfang begins to growl. The wolf is clearly facing the stairs to the basement ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Where else would I be?” he asks the priest curiously while think this one is mighty daft. “You nag worse then me mammy. Don’t be getting your armor in a bunch, Ye be forgetting I be a Wayfinder, used to working alone and in dangerous situations is but a part of it.” Farian is starting ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Though he hadn't really expected Virae to carry them both in one trip, it is clear that she will not be able to fly with the burden of another person in her arms. Thus, they opt to proceed in through the front door as a group.

Not far in, they encounter a group of giant mushrooms, just ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Ye better hope I can lift them and fly at the same time.”
Grondar pauses to rub the bridge of his nose with a pained expression on his face. "I wish you'd mentioned that might be an issue earlier. Oh well, give it your best shot. If not, we'll make do."

"There is no movement of any ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“I didn’t forget anything nor did I suggest simply attacking without any strategy, Oran calmly states. “I merely suggested that we implement what we had discussed now instead of waiting any longer and giving our adversaries more time to prepare.”
“Friends, let us not loose our focus ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“We should just continue forward,” the warrior suggests. “If they weren’t ready to receive guests, then they will be by the time we make our move.”
“But… But…,” Senoia sputters, “We’re here! You can’t stop a dwarven juggernaut when it gets moving! Plow forward and overwhelm whatever ...

Grondar

Grondar:

With the skills of Farian and Virae to guide them, the group moves close to the trolls without being spotted. When all are ready, Grondar calls on the power of his patron to bring a roaring pillar of flame down on two of the beasts. One survives, but is clearly badly hurt. At almost the ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“I have no problem with your plan in principle, Grondar,” the warrior notes, “but I see potential trouble. The Firehammer is a powerful weapon, but not even it can down a troll in just one strike when thrown. Were we face to face then I could slay it quickly, but not from a distance ...

Grondar

Grondar:

"Nah I dun' see any problem with yer plan," Daraden responds to Grondar. "The only other thing that might work would be tah see if we could pull 'em away from the doors unless they be rooted to that spot fer guarding. Yer way ensures the trolls be dealt with instead o' leaving 'em ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Grondar has other things on his mind, so doesn't pay much attention to Virae's attempt at interrogation - or it's aftermath. While he's personally not fond of killing helpless sentients in cold blood, he's also well aware that he wouldn't get much agreement on those sentiments from the ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Trolls you say?” Oran says. “Just standing there? That’s not normal. Someone must be controlling them, otherwise they would have attacked both the hobgoblins and derro while they were fighting for food. My Firehammer will make short work of those trolls, it’s who’s holding their ...

Grondar

Grondar:

It seems that everyone survived the battle with little more than scratches, which pleases Grondar and he offers Berronar a quick prayer of thanks. A quick bandaging should suffice for Virae's injured wing.

“How do we get these prisoners to talk? Can anyone speak their language ...

Grondar

Grondar:

At Grondar's request, Daraden sends Darkfang after the fleeing derro. The sub-dwarven creature doesn't get far as the wolf pulls it down and rips out it's throat. Moments later, Grondar's spell paralyzes three of the onrushing five hobgoblins. Daraden and Senoia have no trouble putting ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Stepping out into the path of the derro, Grondar fires twice with his crossbow. Both bolts strike home, dropping the victims quickly. His companions have similar success and the group of derro are soon reduced to one, which turns and attempts to flee.

"Daraden! Send Darkfang after the ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Who said secure… Weapons give you an idea who you are dealing with.” He says evenly looking at the dwarven priest. “Potential Allies? In a city that has been lost for a generation or two? You would be hard pressed to find such a feat.”
"I agree that it is unlikely, it is also true ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Once Virae and Farian disappear into the shadows, Grondar and the others move forward toward the sounds of combat. They pass through the warehouse block into another warehouse block as the cavern widens. Looking to either side down the gridded streets, Grondar notes that the forge blocks ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Of course, Lord Grondar,” Ziana answers. “In fact, we were pressed into making this journey on a moment’s notice. Much of my belongings are back at Fort Fletcher, so I was going to have to make the trip at some point. I will report what has transpired to Baluk.”
"Thank you. I know I ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Would a Wayfinder be anywhere else?” He adds as he walks gruffly past the priest grumbling slightly. “What about her?” he asks looking to the non dwarf of the party.
“Kharyna used me as a scout during the time I was with her.” She adds to the Wayfinder, “I could help you in your task ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Thank you for your kind donations,” Ziana will graciously say. “Indeed, this will all be put towards furthering Berronar’s good works. May Berronar smile upon your mission. If there is anything that I can do to help, please let me know.”
"Thank you, Ziana, I know the temple is in good ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Drakkimor always did make sure we had the best equipment for our adventures.”
"Always a good policy," Grondar replies with a nod.

“Aye, you can count on my hammer,” Oran will call out.
“Our mission is to liberate Hammerfall,” Senoia will say when the conversation comes around to ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Grondar senses the taint of Deep Duerra on the altar. With a fierce grimace, he begins smashing it with Truthgiver until it is thoroughly destroyed. "There. Much better," he grumbles to himself.

Turning around, he finds that Virae and Farian have succeeded in opening the chest. It ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“I’ve a belt given to me by Drakkimor,” Oran explains. “He said it makes me as strong as a frost giant, so that is why I assumed I was the strongest here.”
"Frost giant, ya say?! Well, that beats my enchanted gauntlets, which are supposed to make me about as strong as an ogre."

“A ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“I doubt it. There is nothing magical about them.” She says easily as she gets ready to take to the air, but most strangely Oran brushes them off. So be it. Within moments Virae watches her eyes wide as they clear the lava flow.
Grondar looks at the woman for a moment a frown creasing ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“I’ll live,” Senoia calls out. “Throats a bit parched. I could sure go for an ale right about now!”
Grondar laughs. "'Fraid I can't help you with that, miss, but I'm sure the Mayor will be glad to assist you with that once we return to town."

“Aye, Though this be looking like a crap ...

Grondar

Grondar:

The Revered Mother honors Grondar's supplication and her love and support flow into the group. Immediately, they charge forward into the mass of duergar. The battle is fierce, but the dwarves seem to be winning...

Then comes the earthquake! It starts as a low rumble in the distance ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“It be raining carts and crates is all.” He says chancing a look toward the priest. “Oh and they be giants now…” taking up is crossbow and firing towards the overgrown scum suckers.
"What say we cut them down to size, then?" Grondar replies as he begins to put his enchanted crossbow to ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Oran's decision to stay with Dougan and Clavis meets with Grondar's approval. It is encouraging to know that the priests will be well-protected by this powerful warrior.

Moving rapidly through the subterranean castle, Grondar comes upon his companions and Mayor Arlos's team. They are ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“It shall be done, Lord Grondar.” Dougan moves off to tend to Brother Clavis. The former priest is easily controlled and Dougan will begin to speak to him.
"Thank you, Brother Dougan." Grondar smiles as he sees the priest begin his work with Brother Clavis. Pausing for a moment, he ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“A thought does come to me, Lord Grondar,” Dougan states. “Let me tend to Brother Clavis before joining the others. Given that he was controlled by artifact, he might have some inside knowledge of it’s working. This knowledge might be useful to us in the days to come. At least give us ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Bringing his hand to his face, Farian shakes his head. “Me Leader.” He scoffs, “Never was one much for that but so be it."
"I have faith that you will do fine, my friend," Grondar says. "And I will rejoin you soon."

“Lost, or so it would seem.” She said as she dusted off her hands on ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Daraden and the drow priestess exchange angry words, and it seem like it is all Daraden can do to resist attacking her on the spot. "Easy, my friend," Grondar says to Daraden. "We all know what happened here, and we all share some of the blame."

“It seems that the words Lady Aria spoke ...

Grondar

Grondar:

The remaining drow warriors are taken down or engaged. Unfortunately, Oran cannot get a clear shot on the Iron Orb. Racing forward, Grondar attempts to tackle Aria, but she grapples him and manages to hold him at bay. Before Oran can join him in subduing Aria, the Orb emits another blast ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Farian and Daraden race to protect Aria from the drow and soon find themselves in battle with the duergar warriors. Oran's enchanted hammer knocks the fight out of their priestess, at least for the moment. Taking a step forward, Grondar's spell captures two of the warriors, as does one ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Praise Berronar! Clavis stops moving even as the spell finishes rolling off Grondar's lips. Thankfully, he won't have to strike the dwarf to stop him.

However, a commotion behind him draws Grondar's attention. Turning, he sees that the drow are closing in on the Iron Orb. Just then ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Racing across the strange cavern, Grondar quickly interposes himself between Clavis and the Iron Orb.
“Must put orb into Iron Warrior!” Brother Clavis shouts upon being blocked. It’s clear that Brother Clavis is not right in the head and that he’d attack Grondar to get past him.
It ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Oran's hammer knocks the iron orb across the room and Brother Clavis runs off it. Almost immediately thereafter, Aria and Daraden slay the duergar priest with thrown axes. Suddenly, neither of the spells he had been contemplating seems appropriate. The duergar warriors are soon enmeshed ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“I’ll be all right,” Aria answers. “Hold on to your spells for now. We might need them later on.”
"I figured as much, my lady," Grondar says with a nod. "Let's get this done with."

Looking over, Grondar sees that the giant doors are already open, and they are soon off on the next leg ...

Grondar

Grondar:

“Join me, Lord Grondar,” Aria calls out. “And anyone else who thinks their weapon is potent enough. We might have to do this the old fashioned way.”
"Gladly," Grondar replies, and slips up to the front of the group, where he stands beside Aria. Moments later, Oran's hammer goes ...

Grondar

Grondar:

After some moments, they get going again. Grondar keeps most of his attention to the rear, so as to not get surprised from that quarter. One duergar pokes his head out... and loses it to Oran's axe.

Several more traps are found and bypassed with care, allowing them to pick up a little ...

Grondar

Grondar:

To the others, Aria adds, “Eyes to the rear lads. We have to every reason to believe what happened reached enemy ears. I don’t want any more losses!”
Since he's already in the rear with Oran, Grondar will stay there and keep his eye on the stair behind. "We'll make sure of that, Lady ...

Grondar

Grondar:

As he retreats, Grondar keeps an eye back over his shoulder, but whoever or whatever emerged from the inner gates never comes into view.

With so many people ahead of him, it's hard to see what's happening at the front of the group. However, Grondar cannot miss the sight of Salem being ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Shaking his head in confusion, “We? No one else is yet across!” walking away and grumbling “Daft that one is, cant even be seeing he is alone. Thinkin the lordship be going to his head.” he says as he reaches the stairs and Salem.
"Look behind you, my friend. Daraden and his companion ...

Grondar

Grondar:

Aria watches as Grondar’s group starts to move out. She’s a bit concerned as the area beside the pit is a great place for an ambush, but decides that he knows what he’s doing. To those who remain on the other side of the pit she’ll say, “Those of you who have ranged weapons, stand ready ...
