Capizzio turns aboout the room looking at the things people are doing to try an open the secret door ... rusty chains ... rack ... iron maiden ... "seems the only thing does seem to be these steps *KICK!*" he then starts to look at the steps along with Kerlin.
Assist Kerlan in searching for the trigger for the secret door.
The steps are built to mimic the skin of a lizard, with circular bumps all over them of various loudish colors. The overall effect is rather like walking on a gila monster. After kicking, looking, and searching for awhile, Capizzio and Kerlan finally locate one such black "lump" located quite near the western edge of the forward side of the bottom step, that is totally circumscribed by a tiny little crack in the edge of the step.
As Capizzio presses the release, the linkages beneath the floor creak and groan from disuse, the door begins to squeak open, a thin film of plaster on the leading edge of the secret door breaks asunder, and a cloud of dust is discharged into the room from the top of the door. Beyond the door lies a yawning roughly-hewn passage of mystery that extends back into the darkness to the west.
OOC: Anybody seen Xavier/Lou? Does anybody have any info about the character he has in mind for when Xavier is returned to renau1g, shortly?

OOC: Cool. Hope you feel better soon! IC update coming ths evening.
OOC: Nah! YOU'RE not old. Now, DeWar, HE'S old!
How Old Is He?
You're just, what, 43 now, Bro? I seem to remember you having a January birthday. Am I even close to right? Ooops! Now I'm thinking maybe it's February, so that would mean you're ALMOST 43, huh?

Sorry, guys, the next update is going to involve a good-sized map that's gonna be pretty tough to make. And I really don't feel like messing with it tonight. It may be a few days before I get back on track. Again....sorry.
OOC: OK, I'm ready to proceed now. There's just one small problem: I've already drawn much more on the map than you'll be able to see, so, once I get the map posted, you'll be on your Wizard's Honor to play along as if you only had knowledge of the area your character can see. I won't post the map quite yet, because behind the secret door is just one room. For now. So, we'll just do this one room without a map. There's not much to it, trust me.
IC: Behind the secret door is what remains of the keep's torture chamber. [And you didn't even know that Lord Kyle would permit such treatment!] Anyway, there is a dismantled rack and iron maiden, and a big pile of rusted chains and manacles near the south wall. Tylara's super-sensitive elf nose, and manny's widdle nose as well, detect no odor of hobgoblin spoor in this room. Actions?

OOC: That sounds just like the last room. Is there anything else?
