Might it not be wise to let Jaeron take the lead from here on in? He's the only one who's anything like close to full hit points. Just because Senllip is the one searching for traps and picking locks doesn't mean he has to be the one to open them.

Strategically I agree. But how *In Game* can Senllip ask his friend to become cannon flesh (I think that is the term). Senllip has much better chance to avoid triggering traps.

I think you misunderstood. Senllip still searches for traps, he just lets someone else be first through the door once he's done searching. And in this case I'm counting on Jaeron volunteering since he can clearly see that Kalana is badly injured and Imrich only slightly less so.

I suppose yes it would be seeing as Jaeron botched the spells and has to fall back on his fighter side granted most of his fighting is lethal with firearms and what not....But yes lead he can after the trap checking is done. I just personally hate leading. So long as others are making decisions and so forth Jaeron will be the "door opener/front liner"

Bishgada thanks I was hoping bringing up the mysterious deaths might help us get the slaves freed possibly. I was kinda thinking like in the hobbit when the cave trolls had the dwarves and Bilbo says they have parasites.

now if we can only get the captured refugees to jump into the ploy, thats the real trick.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be working like I hoped it would work.

Yes. @daos gives hard bargain. . I think we need to know which church supports them as it will lead to the bigger fish. Then we should try to convince them the sheriff is out waiting and they will be outnumbered. And then if it comes to a fight, we must disable the leader, then free the refugees even that it is dangerous (Senllip can pick locks under cover of the team and Imrich can try to tear the locks, cages or bars if necessary [find the weakest spot first]).

Well I hope that sheriff shows up soon we've been waiting for him and the deputies to show up for a while it feels like. Granted time in battle is faster than it feels in real time.

============================================================= (OOC: The way I understood it is that the leader wants US to pay him and in return he will leave early than he originally planned. No, he's offering the party a 1000 GP bribe to basically walk away. Also, with all this talk of waiting for the sheriff and his deputies to arrive, I'll remind everyone that even if they were to show up right now, they would have some trouble reaching the party, because of that burning hallway between them and you. So it's possible they are already here, but are trapped on the other side of that hallway. Also, I think you misunderstood what he meant by the church. He isn't implying the church is in cahoots with him. Just that they'll raise anyone who dies, regardless of who they are, even criminals.

Yep, that's why we're stalling. There's no way we walk away alive from this fight and since the Crimson Wolves seem prepared to fight to the death we can't even scare anyone off. Hopefully the sheriff - as an ex-adventurer - will suddenly discover he's a lot more competent than he's seemed so far. For instance by bringing magical support capable of healing and dealing with environmental hazards like fires. Or even just finding another way in, since the city seems to have decent records of various buildings...

The church revives anyone? For free or only who pays?

well this local church doesn't sound very nice for a place called sanctuary working alongside with slavers.
Sorry my recent post is trying to see if we can slip in there that we took out some of these slavers competition. Desperate times and all.

They're hardly working alongside the slavers. They're just sticking to their beliefs - everyone gets healed or raised if they're hurt or killed. The sheriff made it clear earlier that if we were to kill any of the Red Hawks - even if they attacked us first - the mercenaries were going to be raised at our expense.
So I guess the Crimson Wolves are either prepared to pay for any raising or Sanctuary has some sort of "work it off" scheme for people that need raising but can't or won't pay.
