The Long Arm of Lauto:Broken Wards (DM:Ukingsken)

Grakk speaks in a low voice to the palidan and the warlock. "Hmmmf...Is this the right battle tactic? I'm not used to sneaking around. I prefer the brute force approach, rushing our enemies like a bull and taking no prisoners."

Vrrsk't whispers back, "I'm with you on the brute force approach, but we want to make sure this foul Slardazial hasn't laid a trap for us first."

He then draws his flail quietly, preparing himself for whatever lies ahead.

Grakk listens and then replies: "Yes...that makes sense Vrrsk't." Grakk then brings his blade in front of him, pointing it forward, ready to strike at a moments notice. Then in a stern, but quiet voice: "Once the path is clear, your flail and my blade will cause great destruction to our enemies."

Magnus realizes that almost all the runes compose one giant ward, woven and re-woven into the fabric of the walls. They veritably pulse with positive energy. Their significance is both religious and practical, weakening planar barriers here to make it easier for spirits to cross while simultaneously preventing any of the bodies from rising into undeath.

As you move further down the tunnels you pass hundreds of doors, and several passages leading off in other directions bearing nearly identical markings and doors. As you count the turns, following Belingras instructions the doors themselves become more ostentacious.

Kamotz realises you must now be entering a district of the maoseleum where more wealthy families are buried. Finally arriving at the first turn you are to take, a large marking above the archway proclaims "Honored Dead of Lauto, In Death We Serve As In Life" The tracks proceed down the tunnel out of sight.

Grakk is growing inpatient, but keeps his head straight. He thinks to himself: How long do these cursed tunnels go on?! Taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly, he moves forward through the endless tunnels hoping soon that the group reaches their objective.

[sblock=ooc]
perception roll: (any new clues to discover) = 6

lol
obviously the endless tunnels make it hard for the barbarian to concentrate

Must be close...right then left...twist then turn...

Magnus seemed to be getting more excited, his eyes sliding back and forth in their deep sockets and his step quickening.

Or directions were pretty simple, but just to make sure we get there and try to avoid hazards along the way.

*An underground tomb full of dead priests and a deranged live one. This is almost as much fun as the forest.* Morvannon unhooks a short rod of translucent green stone from his belt and grips it tightly as the group approaches the designated archway.

Moving into the new tunnel you only have to walk a few minutes before you spot the turn you're looking for. As you approach it Vrrsk't notices a strange pulse of purple light race along the runes coming from the hallway and crawl along the tunnels.

Watching carefully it seems to be happening every 9 or 10 seconds but the tempo is slowly increasing, like a heart beating to some unknown rhythm.

At the end of the hallway is a large, ornate door bearing the symbols of Lauto. It has obviously been opened recently but was then closed tightly again from the other side.

It's not supposed to be purple... Kamotz unsheathes his scythe, moving forward stealthily, he digs in to rush the priest, as he listens at the door.

As Kamotz listens at the door, the barbarian makes his observations as well.

[sblock=ooc]
roll perception 1d20+5 (can the door be bashed opened? = 9
[/sblock]

Whispering to the rest of the group. "I can't tell how strong the door is, but I'm willing to test it." To the palidan: "If we both attempt to bash the open the door, we might be able to catch the priest off-guard. The dead don't get surprised, but the living do."

Grakk signals Kamotz of his intentions and waits for his signal.
