I'll wait for us to reach the tunnel in question, then go in first to see what sort of horrible visions I'm given but shouldn't care about in the least. I'll report the details of the vision to the group in a black&white group flashback.

"Barnacle-like," I like it. :P

Anyway, gentlemen, I believe we have ourselves a dungeon-delving quest here. I can't fathom any way to say no, though we could stand to be a bit better equipped. Actually, sending in the armed, trained guards might be better than the artisan who threw a brick once, but I want in on that ancient tunnel, and this might not really fall under "guard the caravan."

So, howsabout we get me armed?

"I'm guessing we're all in agreement for going down the creepy tunnel?"

Do we have all of our weapons/equipment with us?

THANK GOD FOR SUPER-SANE!!!!  "I'll agree to help and I'd also like to ask that you set up a small shrine to Hipobis Giltgold, my patron deity, only if we are successful, of course."  With that, I'll allow the priest to show myself and anyone who wants to come with me downwards to Cthulu's Lair the magical disturbance.

((can you tell me whether or not that action is doomed to failure, I'm trying to play out my Blessed trait here by setting up shrines and making figurines to Hipobis to make him happy/spread the faith.  Or should I be doing something else?))

Yeah I think we have all our equipment, I'll loan Irony my Quarterstaff if he wants for protection.  You break it though and you're getting me a new one.

I'd prefer a ranged weapon, though I suppose I can throw rocks if I have to (I probably do).

And yeah, replacing it shouldn't be too hard, if worst comes to worst.

I have a couple spare packs of throwing knives.

"Catch!" :)

Lilli, I believe we'll be in for sanity tests by the description, not suffering resistance tests.

Follow comrades to certain death exciting new discovery.

They're in packs of four. I assume that means they're encased with leather.

There is no way in twilight or dusk that I am getting involved in that quest.  I'm sure you're all relieved.

Meekly ask FuzzyZergling for assistance with my injury, which I say is the result of a lumberjacking incident.

I think the GM basically said you can't train the chicken, though, besides making it attack everyone indiscriminately.

That's relieving. Though depending on how combat works it doesn't completely rule out the possibility of dying to them, does it? :P

It sounds like you'd suffer from the visions, so either way it's a matter of who goes first. The future owner of our tavern, or the only soldier in the group?

I have Jaded and Super-sane, combined with Survivor and Unbreakable I'm just about the toughest Dwarf in the group to any mental or physical Threat.  Heck, with Blessed Hipobis might just throw a bone my way and make me immune to the visions.  I should go first.
