Having no luck with the drapes Gerard starts to pace nervously around the room, his eyes scanning the floor for any clues or trap doors.

OOC: Search +0

Aleran will check and see what are behind the doors to the east.

Still searching the hallowed area Tyler will try to move the lecturn and check beneath it.


ooc: I'm assuming we're all taking 20 on our search rolls is this right?

 

[mps42]

Swipe checks out what's behind the western door on the northern wall of the chapel.

[sblock]
opening the door reveals a room, maybe 10' by 20', with a desk and chair at this end and a very comfortable looking padded chair towards the middle. The walls are line with bookshelves full of books and scrolls.

Having no luck with the drapes Gerard starts to pace nervously around the room, his eyes scanning the floor for any clues or trap doors.

There is a fine layer of dust on almost every surface. It's clear no-one has been here in a while. The wooden floors show paths of wear in the "aisles" and open spaces where you would expect but no signs of trap doors or anything like that.

Aleran will check and see what are behind the doors to the east.

[sblock]
Opening the door reveals a room, maybe 10' by 15', containg a bed, an amoir and a few wooden chairs, there is also a small bookshelf along the far wall.

Still searching the hallowed area Tyler will try to move the lecturn and check beneath it.

Tyler combs the dais and gently tips the lectern, treating it as if it were made of glass instead of heavy wood. Tipping refeals only a very slightly hollow bottom where two heavy leather straps have been attached, presumably to make it easier to move.


OOC: yes, unless you state something like 'quickly search the area' I am assuming you are doing a thorough search of the area you are in or the item in question

 

[Lazlow]

"Ah! That's where I'd be!" Swipe says, entering the library.

"Hey fellas, it's probably in here."

Swipe thoroughly searches the desk first.

 

[Mimic]

Aleran will check out the small bookshelf along the far wall.

 

[D20Dazza]

Gerard folllows Swipe through the door and into the newly discovered room.

 

[mps42]

"Ah! That's where I'd be!" Swipe says, entering the library.

"Hey fellas, it's probably in here."

Swipe thoroughly searches the desk first.

The desk is a simple writing desk with years of wear etched into it's surface. There is a wide, shallow drawer at the top of the desk containing a few sheets of parchment, a metal writing stile and a mostly empty bottle of ink.

Aleran will check out the small bookshelf along the far wall.

The small bookshelf contains a few heavy-bound volumes. Most are treatises on the gods and how they came to be. Some are more mudane works on natural healing and care of the elderly, and a very few are wirks of simple fiction. this would appear to be the priests personal library.

Gerard, as you enter the room behind the diminutive Swipe you see a room, maybe 10' by 20', with a desk and chair at this end and a very comfortable looking padded chair towards the middle. The walls are lined with bookshelves full of books and scrolls.

 

[Krug]

Following behiind Swipe, Woden enters the oom. He flips through some of the scrolls."Books. So many." The young druid wonders what it would be like to stay here and read all these.

Tyler walks over to the chair and inspects it.
