Oh and should I go for higher Dex or a high Int/Complete human skill *****?

I was actually talking about creating a tunnel on an upward incline that would eventually reach the hilltop, but now I have a better idea.

Durgen attempts to tunnel directly through the base of the hill with his pick.

That would take days, assuming it doesn't collapse in on you.
Sure you want to try that?

Unless you can magically move the dirt.

Which you can't.

I'd like to keep going until I hit something solid, yes.

What are the rest of ya'll doing while Thurgen is playing bulldozer?

All right, well, you spend the next week(minus breaks for sleeping, eating, etc.) digging an approximately dwarf-sized tunnel straight through the hill at ground level.

Since I didn't specify my weight beforehand, let's go with the average dwarf weight (about 137lb.), anything lighter would be taking the mickey.

I wear a breastplate (30lb.), and carry a heavy pick (6lb.), greataxe (12lb.) and spiked heavy shield (20lb.) The weight of my other items is pretty negligible. That brings us to a total of almost 200lb.

Detect evil and magic on the hill top

then land and investigate.

And your reward for your hard work and perseverance is...you get completely covered in dirt.

And by investigate you mean...?
