[QUOTE="D20Dazza, post: 2876563, member: 4260"] [b]Act 1 - The Leather Bag[/b] Time seems to stand still as the seconds silently tick past and the enormity of the Gods request hits home. Your eyes follow what is left of the God as the biting winter wind starts to blow the dust across the clearing. Suddenly, there is an explosion of sound and movement as first Damien and then Azrin grab at the leather bag. [color=royalblue]"Hold there Damien, we doth not know what perils may lie within. I would not care to have lost such a fine companion to a bag of tricks, thus pass it to me and I shall brave what is within."[/color] says Lord Turin, his seemingly haughty voice booming across the clearing. [color=sienna]"Oh... sweet flames of night...[/color]" Kori murmurs as she rises to her feet. [color=sienna]"Turin, please, no one doubts your bravery, but we have no idea what that creature was. I am as eager as you to prevent a tragedy of that magnitude, but we can take a moment or two to make sure all is as it appears to be,"[/color] she says, gesturing for caution. She murmurs a bright word and passes her hand in front of her eyes, which turn silver as she invokes her spell of detection. [color=sienna]"Show me the magics that brought Azrael here tonight, and what he gifts us with, spirits of air..."[/color] [COLOR=DarkOrange]"Like the last time you braved that chest? I think I can take care of this my friend."[/COLOR] Damien says as he starts to examine the bag clutched firmly in his hand, Kori's voice becomes a barely heard drone in the background as he concentrates his attention on the leather bag. [color=cyan]"Yes, let's wait to hear the magic. And then if we think it isn't a trick, I'll open it after everyone else backs away. Damien may be more enterprising, and Turin, you are certainly more brave, but I can best survive a nasty surprise."[/color] Jharvym states firmly. Kerin shakes his head and stalks away from the fire, finding a log to rest on he keeps his counsel to himself. The remaining party members listen to Azrim's dissertation as the swashbuckler and the arcane caster concentrate on their tasks. The surprising thing is much of what Azrim says seems to make a weird sort of sense. [color=blue]"Whats the hold up for? We don't have much time to find and kill Azreal you know"[/color] Azrim growls as the party waits for a verdict on the bag. [color=cyan]"Take note--Kori is still casting Divinations to determine the nature of what we have seen as best she can."[/color] Jharvym says, gently admonishing his dwarven companion. Moments later, at almost the same time, the voices of Damien and Kori rise above the mumurings of the party [b]"All clear"[/b]. Damien crouches down and gently tips the bag so that it's conents spill onto the ground beside the fire. A scroll falls to the ground first and starts to roll towards the fire before biing quickly scooped up by Athear. Next a plain, grey dagger falls heavily to the ground and then a large diamond settles beside it, catching the light from the fire and shining with a golden beauty. [sblock=Damien]No traps mate, it's a leather bag, and not that well made - you'd expect better from a God[/sblock] [sblock=Kori]The magic is a powerful conjuration type that seemed to be riddled with transmutation magic.
