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

[Knight Otu]

OOC: Are you searching the ends of ALL of the tunnels, or just a few? If all, then which are you starting with, and in which direction are you working?

(Starting with the one with the green lantern, working clockwise for three tunnels or so. If he finds nothing by then, he decided none of the other tunnels are interesting either.)

Mulch turns to Zan. "Let's see if we can open up this stone coffin. I'm sure there will be some kind of treasure inside. Pak, why don't you help us as well." The dwarf starts looking about for a good hand grip with which he can get maximum leverage.

"Careful. Before you destroy this, let's see if there is some other way to open it. Anyone good with stonework want to check for release levers or something?"

Mulch turns to Zan. "Let's see if we can open up this stone coffin. I'm sure there will be some kind of treasure inside. Pak, why don't you help us as well." The dwarf starts looking about for a good hand grip with which he can get maximum leverage.

Pak looks around for handholds, or any other place to gain leverage but does not discover any. It looks as if the best way to remove the lid would be with a crowbar, or simply to try and push the lid off. There are no hinges, and the bas-relief lid simply sits on top seemingly held on by shear weight.

"While you´re at it" says Rial "See if you can turn the whole thing around"

[edit: I mean, change the place the sarcophagus it pointing at, not turning over it]

 

[Knight Otu]

"Seems there is nothing interesting in those tunnels. What about that sarcophagus?"

Mulch - Cleric

Mulch finds that there is no easy handhold to get a grip on the sarcophagus lid, and decides to try a new tactic. First, at Rial's suggestion, he gives a push to see if the whole coffin might slide over. Should it prove unmovable in that manner, he will slip off his backpack and pull out a miner's pick. "Perhaps this will prove useful." He will then try to pry off the lid.

He will recruit everyone gathered around the sarcophagus to lend a hand with the pushing in both cases.

Zan says "Maybe it's best if I just stay out of the way and let the rest of you push."

OOC: Sorry, I've been busy this weekend, so I hadn't responded to this post. There actually are interesting things in each of the side tunnels. I'll start with the green one (the one directly in front of you as you walked into the chamber, in the "12" position), and will then describle the first three clockwise from that one.
