Scotley's 4e Swashbuckler

Moving down the passage you soon arrive at a junction. The entrance to the tunnel is now only a tiny point of lightness behind you. The space opens up around a large round hole in the floor. A shaft descends perhaps twenty feet to a similar room with another hole offset from this one. More old rusting and rotting equipment can be seen down there. Nothing appears to be of any value. A once stout ladder giving way to rot leans against the side of the shaft sticking up about waist high from the hole. It has clearly seen better days. The air around the hole is slightly cooler and the walls here are damp with small rivulets of water running down and dripping occasionally into the hole. A few small swallow puddles make the floor slippery in places.

Two passages exit this space perpendicular to the way you enter. One leads roughly west the other roughly east while you had been moving north. Both continue beyond the edge of your vision looking very similar.

Beside each passage a rune like symbol has been carved. It seems likely the symbols do not date from the time of the mine as they are clear while older tool marks all about are fading with long years in the damp. The western passage is marked by a symbol looking roughly like an 'R' with a foreshortened leg. The Eastern passage is marked by a 'T' shape with the bar tilting from high on the left to low on the right and slightly bowed.

OOC: Roll for separately each if you are curious as to the symbols meaning. [sblock=Raidho DC14 Arcana or DC16 History, Dungeoneering or DC18 Religion check]This is an old runic symbol sometimes still used by rural folk that translates roughly as wagon or chariot and is used to denote a journey, vacation, relocation, evolution, change of place or setting.[/sblock]

[sblock=Nauthiz DC14 Arcana or DC16 History, Dungeoneering or DC18 Religion check]This is an old runic symbol sometimes still used by rural folk that translates roughly as need and is used to denote delays or restriction.[/sblock]

[sblock=The old man and Manous (assuming he can tear his eyes from Tabitha's Derrière)]A part of the North wall beyond the hole looks different somehow and you suspect their is a hidden opening here.[/sblock]

[sblock=Background
Manous is a "Barbarian Indian" type who was born in the recently discovered "America," but was
brought back to "France" as a very small boy (about 12/13?) by a sea captain as an oddity to be
widely displayed and poked and prodded by various folks. Then said waif was seen by a Duchess
and her heart went out to the poor lad, so she adopted him and had him trained/schooled by the
best Masters in the land, and given very much religious instruction in the 'accepted' faith.
Ultimately, young Manous became a Paladin, but he still looks very unusual, having been
copiously tattooed by his people and subjected to the body modifications of his tribe. I'm thinking
Manous's entire body is tattooed with geometric patterns and star charts, his earlobes have been
greatly pierced with objects of ever-increasing size during his early childhood, so he has great
flapping "rings" of flesh hanging from his ears. Manous Artouche also has a row of "earrings"
around his navel (navel rings?) (but he keeps that covered most of the time), and he also has a
"bone in his nose." (Not a real bone, but a ring of brass much like a bull.)


So Manous looks like a total freak, except when he is shrouded in his Paladin's armor, at which
time he is indistinguishable from any other knight of the realm, but he is always unswervingly
loyal to his benefactor the Duchess, and he is as faithful to his new religion as anyone in
"France." Now, the Duchess is on the outs with the mainstream of nobility in "France" because
she resisted the amorous intentions of the Prince, and he ruined her socially once he got over
the rejection. She may have even been exiled to "Scotland" or wherever, but Manous Artouche
was undergoing his tutelage at that time and had to stay behind in "France" with the Duchess's
cousin, Grand Duke Siegfried von Koln, who was (as it happens) the boy's Paladin Instructor. Now
Siegfried, once Manous was fully trained and set out on the proper path of Paladinhood, fell
victim to temptations of the flesh possibly brought about by arcane mind control, and he wound
up as an Anti-Paladin. [Built-in future BBEG!] His fall from Paladinhood finished off the Duchess's
family's fall from grace and they are all wanted/hunted/shot on sight, and their vast holdings
have mostly been confiscated by the throne. Manous Artouche does, arguably, still
have a valid, legal claim to at least a portion of the Duchess's family holdings, since he was
legally adopted by the Duchess before her downfall.

[sblock=Background
Manous is a "Barbarian Indian" type who was born in the recently discovered "America," but was
brought back to "France" as a very small boy (about 12/13?) by a sea captain as an oddity to be
widely displayed and poked and prodded by various folks. Then said waif was seen by a Duchess
and her heart went out to the poor lad, so she adopted him and had him trained/schooled by the
best Masters in the land, and given very much religious instruction in the 'accepted' faith.
Ultimately, young Manous became a Paladin, but he still looks very unusual, having been
copiously tattooed by his people and subjected to the body modifications of his tribe. I'm thinking
Manous's entire body is tattooed with geometric patterns and star charts, his earlobes have been
greatly pierced with objects of ever-increasing size during his early childhood, so he has great
flapping "rings" of flesh hanging from his ears. Manous Artouche also has a row of "earrings"
around his navel (navel rings?) (but he keeps that covered most of the time), and he also has a
"bone in his nose." (Not a real bone, but a ring of brass much like a bull.)


So Manous looks like a total freak, except when he is shrouded in his Paladin's armor, at which
time he is indistinguishable from any other knight of the realm, but he is always unswervingly
loyal to his benefactor the Duchess, and he is as faithful to his new religion as anyone in
"France." Now, the Duchess is on the outs with the mainstream of nobility in "France" because
she resisted the amorous intentions of the Prince, and he ruined her socially once he got over
the rejection. She may have even been exiled to "Scotland" or wherever, but Manous Artouche
was undergoing his tutelage at that time and had to stay behind in "France" with the Duchess's
cousin, Grand Duke Siegfried von Koln, who was (as it happens) the boy's Paladin Instructor. Now
Siegfried, once Manous was fully trained and set out on the proper path of Paladinhood, fell
victim to temptations of the flesh possibly brought about by arcane mind control, and he wound
up as an Anti-Paladin. [Built-in future BBEG!] His fall from Paladinhood finished off the Duchess's
family's fall from grace and they are all wanted/hunted/shot on sight, and their vast holdings
have mostly been confiscated by the throne. Manous Artouche does, arguably, still
have a valid, legal claim to at least a portion of the Duchess's family holdings, since he was
legally adopted by the Duchess before her downfall.

Thievery check to open it?
I just added one in case you can use it. Or use the 18 for a more appropriate "opening" roll.

Special: If an enemy has 10 or less HP left after hit by me, he is dead.
