[LPF] From Whence None Return

jbear · May 22, 2014

[sblock=OOC]Not moving an inch until I get the results of Maui's examination of the area.

As I said, if he detects no sign of danger he starts moving carefully forward.

But I made some decents rolls and have cast a detection spell. He should get some sort of info, right? [/sblock]

Vincenzo Handsomeblade is waiting to hear what Maui sees. City boy don't know nuthin bout da swamps!

As he waits with the others for the results of Maui's scouting, Menik chuckles a little at Weel's minor display of magic.

As Taniwha slinks through the swamp and looks around, Maui scans the area for traps outside the structure. Both are being cautious in their approach and not finding anything that would constitute a danger to anything larger than a mouse. Getting closer to the front of the stone structure, Taniwha sniffs the air several times, and then makes a bee line back to Maui, who had come a bit closer in his own searching.

He meows and grows to Maui for a moment and then looks back at the stones.

From his closer position, Maui can see that the front of the structure does have a doorway. Of the two stone doors, one of them has been pried open a couple feet before it broke loose from its hinge and jammed in that position. The gap is large enough that a human can squeeze through relatively easily. There is light inside, steady and unwavering, like one of those mage crystals that priests and mages likes to make in their spare time.

[sblock=Maui]Taniwha reports: "dead stink tree." "lizards." You can surmise those are the things he can smell from inside the structure. You got a few more rounds of the Speak with Animals left.
You don't see any natural traps outside. At your starting position, you can only scan half the way there. But, as you get closer, it is the same result. Nothing on the outside. The stones are a blank spot that you cannot see past. Doors at AL22/AL23[/sblock][sblock=OOC]Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! I was waiting on some kind of scouting and approaching, and totally missed jbear's post where he did all the right things. Then I got stuck in a 14 hour day for work again yesterday. And juggling four games is a little bit too much. Yep, I found my overload spot.

So, on we go.[/sblock][sblock=Status]

It looks like Vincenzo lost line of sight of Maui and T, am I right?[/sblock]

Satin Knights · May 24, 2014

[sblock=ooc]Not completely. Vincenzo can see them, and the the stone structure beyond them. It is just a bit thick in here though.[/sblock]

ooc: thanks for the clerificatioin SK

Vincenzo watches the jungle druid and jaguar in action and tries to discer what is transpiring.

Maui signals for the others to approach him with his hands as he comments with a growl to Taniwha. He remains concentrating towards the stone structure in the distance while they arrive. When they reach him he reports "Rotten wood smell in te door. Inside smell of te lizard. Maui guess that te lizardfolk make te whare inside. Get ready." He then continues moving towards the door, Taniwha alert and ready to attack by his side.

[sblock=OOC]Maui tells Taniwha to growl if he detects any signs of attack and to remain on the lookout.

Signal for others to approach

Maintain concentration on Detect Pits and Snares

When all are with him he moves slowly forward towards teh door with Taniwha[/sblock]

Menik cautiously makes his way next to Maui. He takes out his periscope and offers it to the scout.

Just in case, he casts detect magic as he approaches, and scans the area he can see.
