Legacy of Death Part VI: Like a Snake Eating its Own Tail...and it is Dead

[TerraDave]

Along with the halfling...there is of course the rest of this place.

 

[Buckthorn]

Buckthorn fails his first save (4). Assuming Simorai helps him with Swift Mender Buckthorn rolled again and made the second save. Assuming he is not turned to stone... Buckthorn suggests carefully examining that nice pile of gold.

 

[TerraDave]

Yep, sure are a lot of assumptions in that post.

Buckthorn solidifies into a statue of himself.


(And I think Randy, over many years, has played the only characters turned to stone in my campaigns)

"I think I have a scroll in here somewhere for this." Nar-Heru digs in his back back for few minutes and pulls out a scroll. "This will take me 30 minutes or so, and can't be interrupted, but Buckthorn should be returned to flesh. He may need some healing after as well."

Remove Affliction ritual scroll, Heal check 15, Buckthorn takes damage equal to 1/2 total hit points.

OOC: Yes... somehow this is feeling oddly familiar.

 

[TerraDave]

The ritual is completed, no other basilisks or anything else arrives, and the halfling is restored, albeit feeling a bit worse for wear.

 

[Jin Abackis]

Simorai walks over to the pile of gold. Before he dives in for a swim, he scans the room for potential dangers (perception – 25).

 

[TerraDave]

You find thousands in gold, silver and valuable objects d'art.

You also see the skeleton of a dwarf, next to which, on the wall, is scrawled some crude dwarven runes.

Forge will examine the ruins

Even by Forge's standards, the writing is crude. Possibly written by someone barely literate, or in duress, or both.

"I sorry for those stone from monster. Greed and hunger too much. Now Billim stone. Can take no more"
