House Millithor in COSQ: part 3

[Brother Shatterstone]

Kilcif: Bugbear/Male (Barbarian/Ranger/Rogue)

Kilcif drives the makeshift spike with little or no exposed emotion but his anger and frustration over the Matron drives his solid blow.

He then rips the lids of the other two coffins and repeats the process as before. He bows and smiles slightly, “It is done Lady Carcelon.”

He then dumps the contents of the coffin unceremoniously on the floor and starts too look for any valuables.

Kiernan's coffin only had his equipment in it, his armor (with a stake through it), his rapier, and his shield.

The other two coffins were empty.

The webs on the ceiling are extensive and look ominous. They are almost large enough for a Bebilith to hide in.

Kilcif: Bugbear/Male (Barbarian/Ranger/Rogue)

Kilcif crumbles not liking the chances of finding anything useful in the pile of junk and he quickly tries to remember rather or not he ever saw the vampire with use any of it, Did I ever Kiernan ever use any of this stuff…?

 

[Endur]

Kilcif seems to recall being stabbed by Kiernan's rapier. Kiernan's shield is mithril.

 

[Pyrex]

"Tierak, can you have one of the bebiliths check out the ceiling? Something may be hidden up there."

Then, to Kilcif;
"Kilcif, can you carry him without dislodging the stake? We should be getting back to the Matron soon."

 

[Serpenteye]

After a few minutes of waiting Ki'Willis grows impatient and increasingly annoyed. The barrier showed no sign of weakening and if Dorina repaired herself before the end of the spell she would easily be able to escape Ki'Willis' clutches. She had gone trough too much to allow that to happen. Holding her rod in both hands she brings it down with all her might on the middle of the lid, again and again she chipps away at the stone until a large enough opening is created for her to stake Dorina trough.

edit: If it looks like it would be more productive to attack the lock she'll direct her efforts there.

Kilcif: Bugbear/Male (Barbarian/Ranger/Rogue)

Kilcif lifts the shield testing the weight to see if its truly mithril and smiles as the weight is true, A fine addition to my cause, Kiernan, and I think you very much for it.

He hands the rapier Carcelon hoping to please her just, Hopefully you’ll be more agreeable when you replace your mother.

“Lady Carcelon , take this its no doubt magical in some sort, besides I like my weapons to be more brutal in there efficiency.”

He nods to her and lifts the body careful to keep the stake in place.

 

[Endur]

Zieggrek, Dariel, and Quertus watch the Matron's frantic efforts behind the Blade Barrier.

First, she tries to open the stone sepulcher and is unable to raise the lid.

Then she paused to consider her options.

Finally, she begins to swing her rod repeated against the lid of Dorina's resting place.

The Matron's blows mar and deface the copper design that depicts Dorina, but have minimal impact against the stone beneath the copper.

As minutes pass and blow after blow lands upon the stone surface, dust and chips of stone begin to fly.

 

[Pyrex]

OOC: Just noticed that the post I made friday never happened. I must've posted just as the board went down...

Carcelon accepts the rapier from Kilcif and spends a few moments examining it while waiting for the bebiliths to scout the ceiling.
"I wouldn't get too attached to the shield just yet Kilcif. If Kiernan ends up serving us the Matron may well order us to return his valuables to him.

OOC: Anything immediately obvious about the rapier?

 

[Goddess FallenAngel]

Zieggrek watches the Matron as she pounds away at the sepulcher, his attitude towards her shifting with every minute that passes and attempting to keep a sneer at her pitiful efforts off of his face. This undead creature can't be Matron Alisannara Morcane. Matron Morcane would have had a plan to deal with this... Perhaps Durdyn was wrong about her idenity...
