Adventure:A Jaz of all Trades (DM:Luinnar Judge: H.M.Gimlord).

Dekana · May 27, 2012

At Jax's urging, Uncle Jaz ceasing throwing bombs and resumes the use of his crossbow. His aim is lousy, however, and the crossbow bolt flies several feet above the cube.

Jax charges at the cube and finishes with a leap!
"Hyaaah!!!" The little kobold screams in fury as he makes a long slice down the side of the gelatinous cube, spilling its contents messily onto the floor.

As the cube splatters to the ground Uncle Jaz rushes forward and starts to jam the coins that were contained in it into a bag. These are for the family...almost good as new too! he says happily.

Looking in the mimics Andras and Dorn find two magic amulets, each different and unique to the user's needs.

Now that the fight is over the party spots a door at the other end near where the mimics were, no doubt they were guarding it, or perhaps waiting for prey to come inside.

"Right you are, sir," Quagmire agrees, absently replacing an oblong widget in Sir Exsixten's back. "Nice warmup. Everyone ready?"

OOC:

Sir Ex heals to full. I'm assuming we take a short rest here, and have encounter resources back up.

GM:

Does the party want to go through the door or head back and take the left path?

Dekana · May 31, 2012

"Oh, definitely" answers Jax. "This can't be all of the loot in this place."

Jax walks to the door and looks at it cautiously, wary of any traps.

Luinnar · May 31, 2012

GM:

Jax does not find any traps on or surrounding the door.

THIS DOOR MIGHT BE HOSTILE TOO! Sir Exsixten says, kicking it down.

The door slams to the ground and the party is greeted with a musty hallway in front of them and a path leading off to their left. Exiting the room and looking back they find that the wall is enchanted so that the door (or lack of one) is impossible to detect on this side.

Wait!!! Uncle Jaz shouts before the group can continue forward. Look there! He says pointing a spot on the ground. It is one of those magic whatchamacallits! Glyphs! Don't step on it or something bad will happen!

OOC:

Party perception roll

[sblock=Disarming the glyph]
Glyph of warding: Disable using a DC 30 thievery or arcana check.

Failure if skill check is 25 or less: The glyph explodes.

Party may use aid another. No taking 10 or 20 however.

Before the door is opened...

Dorn passes his hand over the amulet before him. Is this what I think it is? He places the amulet around his neck.

[sblock=All Party Members]
Can you hear me?

You can hear Dorn - the voice seems to come from somewhere deep inside your mind.
