DCC #7 The Secret of Smuggler's Cave - IC

[HolyMan]

OCC: Sorry couldn't get on SUN night.

Entering the northern most door the group finds...

This room was once a trophy area from the numerous stuff and decaying monsters that line the walls. An elaborate stone fireplace sits along the south wall surrounded by a warped and pitted mahogany mantle. Above the mantle is mounted the large head of a black horned lizard. It's tooth maw sitting agape as if roaring.

The group searches the room for clues and treasure but find neither after minutes of searching.

OCC2: Room is cleared.

 

[Herobizkit]

Jadinir smirks. "That mounted head looks a lot like the last woman you bedded, eh, Caramir?"

 

[Leif]

Caramir Thistledown, Elf (Urban) Druid5

OOC: How large is the lizard head? Dragon size, perhaps, or smaller?

"Now here is a trophy worthy of a hero's mantelpiece! And much more attractive than she was, as I recall, Jadinir."

OCC: It was a large monster before it's demise.

 

[Mark Chance]

Iago shrugs. "I feel as if we've been lured away. Those noises were heard when we went into the empty study. Perhaps there's something there that someone -- or something -- doesn't want us to find."

 

[Fenris]

Iago shrugs. "I feel as if we've been lured away. Those noises were heard when we went into the empty study. Perhaps there's something there that someone -- or something -- doesn't want us to find."

"Then let us go back and try to the other doors from the study before we try the far door" suggests Nurkaz as he heads back out of the room.

 

[Herobizkit]

"I'm paid to crush the enemies, not think," Jadinir says casually. "Still, you raise a valid point, friend Iago. Nurkaz, lead the way."

Caramir Thistledown, Elf (Urban) Druid5

"If we have a plan in place, then we should follow the plan without question. I agree with Nurkaz -- to the study!"

"Agreeing with Nurkaz... I thought I'd be dead before senility took me over..."

 

[Fenris]

"Agreeing with Nurkaz... I thought I'd be dead before senility took me over..."

"As you yourself said Jadinir, you're not paid to think" retorts Nurkaz as he heads out the door.
