[QUOTE="Dichotomy, post: 3191665, member: 12941"] [sblock=OOC]Worthley told me to take over for Viktor for a couple days. I'll try to keep any such NPCing minimal.[/sblock] Alendar calls up to Boldak from the bottom of the chain. [color=yellow]"I'll come up too. Viktor,"[/color] the elf calls back to the central area, [color=yellow]"you probably don't want to take off your armor and climb up. See if you can move that arrow. Boldak's idea is a good one."[/color] As Boldak prepares the rope, the elf quickly returns to the central chamber, and leaves his own lit lantern for Viktor (and Alexis?) before climbing up. Between Boldak's rope and the chain, it is a simple feat for Breth and Alendar to get to the tunnel. A thin passage extends into shadows to the northeast. Perhaps seventy feet away, the passage ends in what looks like an enormous stone human face, its mouth open in an angry scream. Meanwhile, Viktor closes the lid of the sarcophagus and attempts to push it counter-clockwise. After a few attempts, it seems obvious that it won't turn that way. The faithful servant of Heironeous pushes in the other direction, and after about half a minute, the dais rotates one "click" and stops in place with the arrow pointing toward the northwest tunnel with the yellow lantern. Viktor and Alexis hear a low rumbling from underneath them, but from where they stand in the middle of the chamber, the pair cannot see anything. After Breth and Alendar join Boldak at the top, Boldak begins to examine the tunnel and Alendar closely follows behind. At about the same time, the elf and the dwarf point toward several long scratch marks on the floor, as if something had been dragged. [color=yellow]"I have no idea what to make of that,"[/color] Alendar flatly states. [sblock=OOC]Climb checks, with the rope, chain, and taking 10, Alendar and Breth automatically succeed. Viktor STR checks: 3+2=5, fail; 3+2=5, fail; 5+2=7, fail; 14+2=16, success And, of course some search checks for which I'm not telling results...[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
