Dick breathes a sigh of relief and says "I'm glad that thing is... gone. I couldn't have taken more than another hit or two. It... saps your... will to live, it seems..."

A couple of water benders, a dike, a flaming arrow, and a few barrels of blasting jelly?

Sounds like the makings of a gay porn film.
...thanks

Corben laughs and pats his sidearm after holstering it.  "That's why I have this.  You boys have fun in the thick of things, I'll enjoy my safety as I blow a few holes in it!  Anyways, that wasn't too bad now was it?"  He grins, then walks over and picks up the gemstone to examine it.

"Yeah... I may have to break down and get me one of those... Some things are better shot from a safe distance than stabbed. That's especially true of things that don't have any vital organs and are on fire."

Dick glances at the gem, but decides to leave its examination to those who likely know more about such things. He begins looking around in the room the creature came from instead.

[spoiler]Take 10 on Spot, Search, and Listen for 23, 19, and 19. My psicrystal will attempt to aid another on all of those.

Psicrystal's Spot, Listen, Search to Aid Another: 1d20+10=24, 1d20+8=19, 1d20+6=8

So Dick's totals are Spot 25, Search 19, and Listen 22.[/spoiler]

While looking around he says "And Corben, try not to be so damned hasty in the future. If you hear something behind a door, try listening for a minute to see what it might be, instead of charging right in. We could have used a few seconds to prepare for that thing."

He mutters to himself "Stupid kids." as he turns back to searching.

Corben laughs somewhat mockingly.  "Oh yes, because that creature defeated us handily didn't it?  The thing didn't even scratch me, seems to me that we did just fine against it."

There is an eerie silence and the room seems to be the office of some minor official. There are stacks of papers and writing on the desk, most deal with the daily operation of the guild.

The gemstone seems to be burning the floor where it stands.

The writing on the walls has dimmed somewhat.

Any notes mentioning what was going on here today? And on the date the girl was first abducted?

Nothing seems special about today, however the date the girl was taken there is a note concerning the transfer of a powerful artifact from the guild vaults to the cites magic repository.

Dick attempts to memorize the contents of those pages, with the aid of his psicrystal.

[spoiler]Autohypnosis check for Dick and the Psicrystal: 1d20+4=20, 1d20+1=18

I wish I'd noticed that you can't take 10 on Aid Another... because I planned my skill points around that...  :banghead Gonna have to get MW tools for a few things, including this.

DC is 15, so they both pass.[/spoiler]

"Didn't scratch y...." Greed has an irritable look on his face before going and assisting in the searches. He felt like crap; that spiritual strike had hit him pretty hard, and his face looked like crap he was sure. Still, he went about the room, searching. "Bet I could scratch you, little shit..." Might have been less unnerving if Greed didn't always have claws protracted from his hand.

"Corben, what DID you hear from behind the door?"

Corben ignores the threat with a smirk.  "Heard scratching, figured that one of whoever is supposed to be here got captured and was signaling for help."
