[QUOTE="Krauss von Espy, post: 2384705, member: 31847"] [Knowledge (Arcana) Check: 3+7=10] Kenneth actually does have some insight as to the true nature of the apparatus. The runes on the inner portion of the "mirror's" frame look to be of a type which signify transportation. The large glyph at the base of the device doesn't seem to be formed from a common alphabet, but it is reminiscent of arcane symbols representing elemental air. With the other party members in tow, Gregor and Majakilar lead the way further northward into the cairn, the glow of Owen's lantern providing the light. The central hallway opens into a large chamber with wings leading to the east and west. Across the chamber to the north yawns a twenty-foot-wide open arch draped from top to bottom in translucent cobwebs. The eerie green light flickers from beyond the webs, casting strange shadows about this room. The place smells of animal spoor and wet fur. To the west, three short stairs lead to a wide marble dais, but the far end of the wing is obscured by darkness. Huge slabs of cracked masonry and irregular piles of scattered debris choke the eastern wing, giving the appearance of a complete collapse. The sibiliant, almost human whispers present in the passage become a chorus in this massive chamber, eerily echoing off the walls A low growl from the eastern part of the room reveals the source of the odor straight away. Three wolves stand snarling at the party, hackles raised as they approach. Two of the mangy curs look as if they haven't eaten in days. The third is a little larger than the others, and does not look hungry in the least. A straight line of scar tissue bisects its face from forehead to muzzle. With a snap of hungry jaws, the wolves eagerly attack! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Initiative: Azten 18+1=19 Owen 15+3=18 Majakilar 16+2=18 Gregor 10+1=11 Kenneth 8+2=10 Alexi 6+2=8 Wolves (x3) OOC: I'll be NPCing Owen for now, could the rest of you please send combat actions for at least one round (more than one if you like). On the map, the strongest looking wolf is the one in the middle (#2). [/QUOTE]
