BrOp's Age of Worms Adventure Path: The Whispering Cairn (IC)

[Branding Opportunity]

Zan exacmines the blue lantern to see if he can figure out how to relight it.

OOC: The lantern itself has no fuel or wick in it. It seems to "light" it you would have to put another light source (like a candle, torch, or everburning torch) inside it.

(Meldain would try to appraise the tankard; +2, untrained)

OOC: Sorry, Knight Otu, I completely forgot about this. After taking a look at it, you have no idea in the world how much it might be worth. The stone carving is real nice, though

 

[Someone]

Near the hole, Rial waits for his companions to finish with the star room.

Zan will light a candle and put it inside.

Mulch - Cleric

The dwarf looks at the crushed bones with a worried expression, looks up at the ceiling of the compartment, and begins to have doubts whether it's safe to enter. He looks at Fixit as he also examines the outside, and asks, "Can you make out what it's for? It appears from the condition of these skeletons that it might not be the most secure of contraptions."

 

[Branding Opportunity]

Zan will light a candle and put it inside.

With the candle inside, the lantern gives off a weak, yet pretty blue light, casting dancing shadows on the wall.

"Of course I'm curious! But I also value my life, and I wouldn't want to be crushed beneath a lot of rocks. Wait... that one corridor was apparently higher than the other one... I wonder..."
Meldain rushes outside, to the wolf den, and looks at the picture again, to see if that is somehow reflected in the painting.

Meldain takes a moment to look at the mural in the nearby alcove, and sees nothing at first. After close study (OOC: Search check) he does notice that their is a very small "X" which has been carved near the depiction of that passage. This carving was obviously done much later than the mural.

 

[Branding Opportunity]

After studying the device for a couple of minutes, Fixit draws his mace and attempts to carefully drag some of the debris from the cylinder.

OOC: Search +4; Know (Arch and Eng) +3; Appraise +4; Artificer Knowledge

Fixit and Mulch:[sblock]After carefully sifting through the debris in the cylinder (OOC: Search check), Fixit comes to the same conclusion as Mulch, that the person died from massive blunt trauma. Among the modly clothes and bones he finds a small pouch containing 35 gp, 15 sp, and a small, red ruby. Studying the cylinder for a few minutes you realize that it is beyond your knowledge. You don't understand (magically) how it might work.[/sblock]

"Huh... Odd thing, that."
(Did Meldain search the whole painting or just the "blue portion"?)
