Strahd's "RttToEE" CLOSED

The three doors

Checking the doors the Kid finds that the first door is not trapped and behind it he finds some bones, torn cloth and a broken old sofa, looks like a trash room.
Checking the middle door, The Kid finds that the doorknob on the other side is attached to a chain, checking the trap he finds out the this trap is already sprang and activated.
Opening the door reveals a loose chain that connects the opening mechanism of the door to something unknown, the chain disappears into a hollow niche in the ceiling and there is no way to know where the chain goes.
The third door is not trapped. The horrible putrid smell identifies the small cell to be a lavatory.

Korbryn lets out a heavy sigh and lowers his sword, disappointed that not a single door led to gnolls to slay. He turns and leads the way back to the chamber where they had found the iron box. Once there, he takes a quick look around, waits for his companions to catch him, and heads down the western passageway.

The small gnome falls in behind the dwarf, more than willing to put this foul smelling room behind him.

"You know," Lenuran says,"We've almost finished the first level, I think - it feels as if we've put the first chapter of the moathouse behind us. I, for one, am ready to start chapter 2."
 


Odd in shape, this chamber's walls are stained and scored with signs of fire long ago. A wooden bed with mattress of straw is against the far wall, and a small iron box sits next to it. On top of the box is a pipe and some tobacco, a whetstone, and a stoneware cup full of some dark liquid.
Resting on a hook is a black cloak with a flaming eye symbol, fairly dirty but in good shape.
[sblock=Lenuran knowledge] It is possible that the cloak represent a rank since the flaming eye is some kind of tribal symbol, probably Gnollish in nature [/sblock]

The Kid does another search of the room, then carefully examines the box before opening it.

OOC: Take 10 on a search of the room, 20 on the box for traps.
 

Searching the room, the Kid finds nothing of importance.
Inside the not-trapped and not-locked iron box Thandis recovers a few bits of clothing
And some personal gear – few scraps of drawing, a partially carved piece of wood, a crude comb made of chicken bones and a painted ceramic mug.
 

Korbryn pauses to take a pinch of the tobacco and smell it, and then drops the stuf on the floor. The dwarf was craving a smoke, but lighting up his own pipe here in the dungeons would be dangerous...any enemies would be able to smell it some ways away.

The dwarf then moves to grab the cloak from its pegs. "This could come in 'andy," he says.
 

And also, I know I am a couple of days early, but I wanted to say: Woo-Hoo! Happy 1 year anniversary on this game!

"This cloak could be a symbol of rank or authority. Hmm, I wonder if this is the gnoll leaders quarters -- the one from the courtyard who carried two swords?"

Then he scoffs,"Certainly didn't live like much of a leader, anyway."

The little gnome then pokes through the rest of the gear, but finds nothing that piques his interest.

He says hopefully,"Looks like chapter 2 is about to begin!"
