A Spiked Drink

"Code hmmm." (( Linguistics 1d20+7=23 ))

 

[InVinoVeritas]

Holphin turns to Saranna as Emet holds her steadily aloft. "Code? Arrow directions can have alternate meanings, depending on culture..."

Despite Emet's near-immobility, it does not stop him from contemplating his position among the stones.

 

[jbear]

"Well these arrows are clearly drawn by thugs. They are less than clear. I would say we have to turn left. Anyone else like to hazard a guess?"

GM: Daylily levels to level 4 at 6010 xp with Time XP. I will be updating the front page with the actual numbers soon, but [MENTION=93930]Systole[/MENTION] you can start leveling up Daylily

Holphin and Saranna look at the different shapes the cracks took, and figure out the arrows represent. Some hunters use carvings on a tree to point the way to a place of some significance. However, who drew these clearly was not thinking, and instead of drawing the arrow on the west wall, showing the direaction as down the left hand passageway, instead drew it pointing upwards towards (as Saranna clearly found) nothing but the sky. You wonder how often thugs have gotten lost in these caverns by instead going forward, or stumbling around blindly in the dark.

Emt, as though to confirm Holphin and Saranna's confirmation, points to the left hand passageway after some time thinking on direction.

Relic nods and falls in behind his companions as they head off down the left tunnel.

 

[Systole]

Daylily shakes his head. "Fools. Poor markings like that can get a wanderer killed." He grins. "Well, let's get them killed for entirely different reasons, aye?"

He proceeds down the tunnel.

As you start down the new direction, everyone's senses are on pins and needles. Not knowing what is around the corner, eyes peeled for any sort of creature that comes your way. However, as time goes by, you get a strange feeling that your being watched by...something.

GM: Everyone is entailed to one more skill check. It can be of Perception(DC 15), or Know(Dungeonerring)(DC 13), or Surivial (DC 15) to avoid the creature. Or you could attack it.

 

[InVinoVeritas]

Holphin and Emet carefully keep watch.

 

[jbear]

Relic studies the tunnel's dark reaches as the feeling of danger runs down his spine testing the limits of his recently discovered ability to see in the dark. Something familiar about what he is seeing is ringing alarm bells inside his head but he can't quite put his finger on it... and then something clicks.

"Hold a moment people. I believe we have just walked into the territory of ..."

 

[Songdragon]

After climbing down from the large construct and thanking Emet and Holphin for the aid with a bow she moves after the others along the sewers. Changing out her rapier for a readied crossbow.
