[Adventure]: Stormcrow Tor (Judge: THB)

[Tinwe]

With the glow of combat fading into memory once again, Gruff was fast returning to the abrasive dwarven personality that had earned him his nickname.

"Bunch 'o birds in here, and the floor spells 'crow' straight across. I say we stop wasting time, push those statues over on 'em and we see what the birds can do!"

[sblock=OOC]I'm with Tinwe. Let's do it[/sblock]

 

[Velmont]

As the group move the statues over the word CROW, the purple glow burst into a flash. Blinded a moment, the group recover their sight and see the portal is open.

 

[pathfinderq1]

Sweetness gave a short yelping cry, half-surprise and half-triumph. Then the big gnoll drew her dagger and began to approach the now-open portal, careful to not step directly in front of it...

OOC: Dagger and Everburning Torch in hand (or paw), Sweetness will move up along the wall. Once she gets to the opening, will take a quick glance inside- if nothing happens, then a longer look. Not actually going to step through the opening yet.

Perception +9= 18 ; roll Roll Lookup

 

[Velmont]

As Sweetness starts to peek into the portal, he is absorbed by it. He is gone and after a moment, he doesn't seems to come back.

[SBLOCK=pathfinderq1]The portal is one way, once you arrive at the other side, you cannot come back. I'll post soon what you see, I'll let a bit of time for the other to react before.[/SBLOCK]

 

[H.M.Gimlord]

"Well how do you like that!?" Arkavas shrugs indignantly, "Didn't even say good-bye," he turns to the rest of the group, "Well, somebody's got to go get him. Right. Here we go." and with that he steps through the portal.

 

[Erekose13]

Gogmorthak follows right behind Arkavas.

 

[Velmont]

[SBLOCK=OOC]Ok, I'll suppose everyone will follow Sweetness. Also please look down at the status and tell me if you want to spend any more heaing surge to heal yourself (The number of healing surge is in bracket). Also, please note, a milestone have just been passed.[/SBLOCK]

The group follow Sweetness through the portal. The find themselves teleported into a chamber and see the portal closing behind them.

This wide chamber is dominated by a stone sarcophagus which sits upon a hellish design painted on the floor in glistening blood. Three of the corners hold smashed-in vault doors. The southeast corner instead contains a workbench and chair, though a ward of blue-glowing glyphs surrounds
it protectively.

Sweetness waited until the others made their appearances, but not a moment longer. Once everyone was accounted for, the big gnoll began to prowl around the room, taking stock of the situation. She kept her distance from the sarcophagus, and from the glowing wards, until those with magical training had had a chance to look the items over...

OOC: [sblock] Good for HP/surges, but should only have one AP since she spent one in the last fight. Will examine the room from the outer edges inward- starting with the opened tombs; will let those with Arcana or similar skills looko over the wards first [/sblock]
