Welcome to Gaia! ::

The massive mountain has been turned into a fortress for the Illithid's. Three large entrances that allow for large shipments of slaves have been heavily fortified. Barricades, trenches, a moat, and a draw bridge. Three watch towers per entrance, and what appears to be constant vigilance of entire tree line.

A few hours observation of each entrance will tell you that each is guarded by at least ten at every moment-- but due to inability to distinguish between these monsters makes it hard to tell.

The smaller entrances are guarded by two or three depending upon the size of the entrance.

More examination will show that there were forced cave-ins at many points to close of extra entrances into this fortress-- Perhaps one with experience at finding weak points in a fortress could find an unguarded entrance.

Raymond had been following Rashel the whole time, keeping silent. He looked around the area, he saw one opening but it was guarded by some, weird creatures. "I don't see one that isn't guarded by..those things." He said silently

Raymond then had an idea, "I think there is a way," He said. "I can make a distraction to have those creatures come over in that direction, then we can sneak in."

Raymond sighed, "I do not feel like waiting for them to come, I say we try to sneak past their line of sight. That or killing them, you choose." He smiled slightly.

((Not quite sure if we are suppose to control the npc's or if someone is. So if I need to change my post just tell me.))

(( The about 2-3 sentries
Okay, so I'll wait every fighting post with the NPC's so you can write.
I tried not making it auto and I let escape from the ice be easy just in case. I tried reading how fighting would be, but it was unclear to me. ))

Rashel nearly fell from the invisible forces and the shock of her concentration being blown to quickly, but she easily kept her balance. "You think that will stop me?" She asked them before she lifted the ice that had fell from their shields and let it drop on them again, this time from the top. Wetting a knife, she threw it at them from below. Pulling out her whip, she snapped it out and used the water from the jug to coat that too before freezing it into having spikes all around it. Yet, the weapon was still flexible enough to not crack any of the ice.
Stepping up she mumbled, "What? Is playing fair too hard?"

Rose arrived and watched everything unfold. Maybe I can get these people to help me. She pulled a few faceless wooden dolls out, they silently ran through the area, quickly getting closer to the squid faced things. They look repulsive. Taking a few deep breaths, she shut her eyes and opened them to look at her other dolls. The first one had razorblades for fingers that silently hopped onto the back of one and went for a clean beheading kill.

Rashel fell back at the pain that had struck her somewhere in her brain. Trying to get back up, her vision blurred for a second but came back. When she was standing once again, she felt like she was going to faint a bit, but she still attempted to use the whip. Lashing out at them, the crack of the whip had made no noise as it's deadly spikes went for the neck of the monster.

Seeing the magic that traveled across her string made Rose panic as she quickly released it before she was fully stunned. Still she was hit and did get stunned for a minute or two. You're not getting away that easily. She thought and began muttering a spell. Pulling out an arrow and grabbing her bow, she shot two arrows that were blazing with a black magic that radiated evil.

((In a bit I will have to color code my people.))
