No, if I wanted to do that, he would have taken a level in Barbarian. But that would have kept him from his yet unrealized long term goal of becoming a Shining Sword of Heironious. But that is a lot more levels to that point.

He has sword envy. Kal and Ran did a lot more damage in the last combat than he did.

Only because he got stuck in that silly web. Up until that time, he was dicing and slicing. Harp has no sword envy. For only being a second level fighter, he can hold his own.

Subject Bear vs bear
Yeah -- Mund remembers how well he held his own against Mund.
From: Kevin
Subject Bear vs. Bear
And how well did Mund fare against a tree hugger?
Harp's specialty is not grappling and wrestling. He uses his sword and acquits himself just fine using that weapon in a normal fight.
From: Karl
Subject Bear vs. Bear
That's because they managed not to get webbed.

Subject Challange?
Do I hear a challenge?

"Are you asking for a challenge?! Double Deuce!"
From: Kevin

Kal and Ran were not in the line of the web. Harp never claimed to be twinkle toes.
From: Kevin
Subject Challange
There is no challenge here. Just that Harp is a 2nd level fighter when he took on a 5th level barbarian. He has learned his lesson about taking Mund on hand to hand. But he is not useless with a sword in his hand.

Especially with his magic sword. <_<

After the sparing between Salix and Mund the party settles down for the long wait. The room they are in is fairly large but after a few hours it seems to close in on some of them. Salix and Mund in particular feel the confines of the room. Salix wonders how Noctis is doing and if the bird is well. Normally he would know but this place was out of the normal scheme of things and so his connection was broken.
Time passes, quickly for some, slowly for others. Ragnar wakes and does his "morning" rituals, asking for certain blessings for the day. He then checks on Surin and sees that the halfling has not gotten any better. The dwarf reports to Harp. "It is as I feared. The halfling has the fever and has been unable to fight it off. I will prepare to ask the battle lord for his healing." At Harp's nod the cleric walks over to where the halfling is fitfully sleeping.
He sits down next to Surin and takes his hand. The halfling turns and looks at Ragnar with empty eyes, staring at some imaginary scene. The dwarf starts chanting the prayer of healing diseases. As he completes his chant Surin arches back for a second, as if in pain, and then collapses to the floor again. Ragnar places his hand on the halfling's brow, checking for fever. The rough cool touch of the dwarf's hand brings Surin back to himself.
"What happened? The last thing I remember was laying down to sleep. I have been having some of the worst nightmares. I feel so weak." Ragnar grins. "You have been sick but Heironeous has granted me the grace to remove the sickness. I expect you are also weak. With your permission I can help with that as well." Surin nods and the dwarf chants a different spell, this time placing a hand on Surin's chest. Surin feels the healing warmth flow into him and within seconds the exhaustion and fatigue and weakness are gone. Surin looks at the dwarf with huge eyes. "Wow! I've never been healed like that before. It's quite somethin."
Ragnar spends a few more minutes making sure that the halfling is really ok and he seems to be. Harp's relief is obvious to everyone. "OK folks" Harp says "it's time to get set up to go back and check out that room and to move on to the next."
OODM: Jason, Ragnar used Remove Disease and 2 Lesser Restorations. Please show those spells as being used and pick whatever other spells you want for the days activity.
I have attached the current dungeon map. Let me know what you want to do.

Harp breathes a sigh of relief as the little hafling seems to return to his normal self. At least Harp would not have that on his soul. Now, onto the next room.
"All right, every one feeling better? Then, lets get on with this. Mund and I will go first, Ran and Kal after us, Ragnar and Salix and then Surin and Allistair. Lets go get this key so we can move onto the next one."
With that, Mund and Harp head down the hallway, through the room with the gargoyles, and into the empty room that was before the ghouls. He stops by the door to the room that had the ghouls and says:
"Surin, please take another listen. Mund, would you use your torch and keep and eye on Surin? I don't expect any trouble before we open the door, but I would rather be safe than sorry."

"Sure thing. Let's go, Surin."
