Forked Thread: Scotley's Tomb of Horrors 3.5 Continued

[Scott DeWar]

Harrison is a bit nervous and looks about the rook, not sure what may come of this action.

Logan Lightbringer, Cleric9, AC28,FF27T17,HP76-10+3DR=69/76, DR3/-, F+9,R+4,W+11.

OOC: Logan is still biding his time and waiting SAFELY (he hopes) in the rear....

 

[Scotley]

Something Happens!

The gargoyle statue springs into motion. All three hands contract into fists crushing the valuable diamonds into worthless powder. Just as despair starts to set in, but before anyone can do bodily harm to Ballista the statue speaks the following words in harshly accented Common:

“YOUR SACRIFICE WAS NOT IN VAIN. LOOK TO THE FOURTH TO FIND YOUR GAIN.”

Jillian Tealeaf, Rogue9, AC25,FF19,T17, HP32/37, F+4,R+13,W+5

Jillian shrugs. "Fourth? Could it mean the fourth arm. The detached on?" She moves over to the arm that she had so recently tried to reattach and searches it for anything unusual.

 

[Scotley]

There is no obvious change to the forth arm. However, when Jillian touches it, there is the sound of something small rolling along the floor and clinking against the wall in the corner. Absolutely nothing is visible to have made the sound, but you all heard it.

 

[Guest 11456]

Jillian Tealeaf, Rogue9, AC25,FF19,T17, HP32/37, F+4,R+13,W+5

Hearing the clinking Jillian's ears perk up. "Hmmmm! What is this?" Seeing nothing in the corner where the sound stopped, Jillian searches by poking the floor and nearby walls of the corner with her sword.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Harrison jumps out of his skin (that must be quite the gruesome sight, eh?) and levels his sword at the moving statue. he is about to atack when it speaks. watching it he sees no further action, but he is still on his guard.

(ooc: [Kabitz] isnt crushed diamond a material componatn for a wizar's spell of some sort? stone skin maybe? [/kabitz]

 

[Vertexx69]

Ballista, HP48/48, AC 26/29vRanged(FF19/24vR-T15/20vR) F5 R13 W6

Ballista peeks over Jillians shoulder as she pokes at the bad corner. "Uh whatcha doin there Jillsie? Theres an easier way to find little invisible things than that." She unhooks her cloak, and gently drapes it flatly over the ground in the corner to see any telltale dumps underneath.

 

[Graybeard]

Zorn jumps slightly as the statue "comes to life" and speaks. He hears something rolling on the floor after Jillian touches the 4th arm.

That was interesting if unexpected. he mutters.

He thinks for a moment then tells Jillian;

Allow me to assist your search.

He mutters arcane words and flourishes his arms and hands.

That's better. he anounces to no one in particular.

Miss Tealeaf, if I may be of assistance? I can now see things unseen.

ooc: Casts See Invisibility

 

[Scotley]

Jillian bumps something when she goes poking around. Ballista's cloak reveals something small and oval shaped. Once Zorn brings his magic into play and the cloak is removed, he sees a large oval diamond with two large flat faces. The invisibility liquid on the gem was smeared in a couple of places by the cloak. It seems that a good cleaning would render whatever it is visible to all.
