The large polar bear could understand Zurkis' frustration, after all, the previous skirmish (since it was nowhere near an actual fight) had only moistened his appetite for violence.  The huge furred knuckles of his paws clenched the handles to his flail and shield multiple times, tightening when they rounded a corner only to relax once the hallway, as all the others, was empty.  The pace the group was moving at was fine with him, he could walk for miles before even needing to stop for a short rest, but there was one thing that affected others around him more than the polar bear himself: The smell.  A heavy hide with thick, insulating hair was great in keeping one warm in the frozen tundra he called home...but in this neverending underground maze, with absolutely no ventilation, the air was starting to grow heavy with his musky scent.  After one more turn he let out somewhat of a snarl, about to vent his frustration when he saw that barrel go flying, crashing against yet another nondescript wall and shattering upon impact.  He had to admit, the dragoness showed great strength from what he saw, perhaps he could arrange for them to have a little spar once everything here was taken care of...<br/><br/>If it got taken care of that is.<br/><br/>What little he knew of magic he learned in his tribe, the chieftain being the only one gifted enough to conjure up arcane energy while the rest of his people relied mostly on their on skill and strength.  He had never seen anything like this before, but then again, he had yet to meet an opponent that he couldn't beat with sheer force.<br/><br/><blockquote><div><cite>Zurkis wrote:</cite> "Ugh. Well, do we have any more suggestions?"</div></blockquote><br/><br/>Yeah, he had one alright, enough of this maze and all of its twists and turns, this eleven foot tall hulking mass of white fur and claws was going to go straight. "Move."<br/><br/>Working up a running start, and bellowing out a guttural, bone-rattling roar of effort the polar bear charged forth, his aim was the wall at the end of the hallway, or rather, what could be behind it.<br/><br/><div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">Strength Check vs Wall (1d20 + 5): 4 + 5 = 9<br/>Yeah...assuming not much will come of that one &gt;_&lt;<br/>And sorry for the short post, more will come from the stoic bear soon enough!</div></div></div>
