[EBERRON] the Extraordinaries, 'A Terror Awakened, the League Reborn'

"It appears there is no avoiding this tower. Perhaps we can keep our contact with it to a minimum."

Marcus pauses, as if listening to himself.

"I sound ridiculously naive, don't I?"

At a bit of a loss, Neville asks, "Well....what do you gents make of it?"

His grip on his bow tighting, he turns to Neville. "It seems to have made the decision for us. Deal with it now or at a less opportune moment."

Getting closer, the group can make out that the tower of is made of black granite or similar stone, and that the stones lineup almost perfectly with each other. The tower is about 50 feet tall, and about 40 feet wide at the base. There are no windows or arrow slits, and only a single wooden door in the front that is about 10 feet high and wide. The earth and rock around the towers base looks totally normal, as if the tower had always resided here…

Azreal approached the tower . . . curious . . . but cautious. If possible, Azreal circled the tower at its height, trying to get a feel of the tower itself . . . or any inhabitants.

OOC: Detect Evil . . . or anything else that might come up.

Azreal takes flight and circles the tower. There appears to be no trap-door or access to the roof that he can see. The tower itself... gives off a faint feeling of darkness, but no more then the rest of the Mourlands. It 'feels' almost like that living lightning that he encountered only a few short days ago - unnatural and unwelcome

'This . . . 'feeling' . . . I am getting tired of it,' Azreal thought as he flew around the tower. 'A sense of foreboding . . . of weight . . . even more so than in the city of Sharn.'

Azreal returned to the gorund and reported in, "The tower seems unnatural . . . unwelcome. I would recommend we pass it by . . . if we can."

 

[Bobitron]

Fury stays on guard, confused. He tilts his head to the side as he contemplates the tower's tall sides.

"I am unsure that entering the tower would cause it to leave our path once we exit, but there must be some enchantment holding it in this place. Perhaps it is inside. I do not see any way of avoiding it."

 

[ShaggySpellsword]

"The sooner we are done with this thing, the sooner we get to our destination. Onward. Lets gather more information so we can decide what there is to be done."

 

[Karl Green]

As the group approaches the Tower and gets within about 30 feet, the gate lifts silently – offering a way inside without obstruction. The interior appears to be pitch black, and only those with Dark Vision can make up a little ways in. It appears to be an empty room, but they can just make out a staircase leading up…
