D&D 5E (IC) Vault of the Dracolich (Infiltrators)

[gargoyleking]

OOC: You fool of a took!

Torbin stares at Sea to as he touches the likely protected treasures of this room, casts a spell on it and tosses it into another room. He responds quickly to the clattering urn, raising his bow and taking aim at the emerging figure, ready to loose at the slightest provocation.

Zander turns as white as milk as the ghostly apparition forms from nothing.

"Uh-? What was all that gibberish," the warrior says crouching low and bring his shield up under his chin.

OOC: Dodge

The trinket, for its part, bounces along the floor in the room to the south. It fills the room with light revealing shelves loaded with chests, armour, shields, weapons, and other valuables. On the top shelf of the far wall, the light reveals the last of the Bhaalite Idols: a robed, masked figure wielding a curved blade.

Sesto looked at the rattling urn on the shelf and took a step back. He gasped when the ghostly visage appeared speaking words of unknown meaning. Sesto looked at Torbin and Zander and realised that they too did not understand what the ghost was saying.
Sesto held up his shield to show the sign of Lathander’s and then he spoke in a clear voice (in common); Stop! In the name of Larhander, I command you to stand down. Repelling undead required great mental capacity and this time Sesto felt that he couldn’t muster enough energy to force the ghost to retreat. Instead he said; What do you want? Explain yourself!
Sesto also looked towards where the ghost was pointing and saw, in the far end of the other room, the last of the Bhaalite Idols that they have been looking for.

OOC: Sesto have no more uses of Channel Divinity left.

OOC: How far are we from the idol?

Torbin understood the elvish well enough - there were some differences in the words used and a strange lilt, but he was able to translate easily enough.

Auraia looked toward where Sesto had thrown the light and she saw it too. The last idol was on a shelf seventy feet away from her. In front of her (ten feet away) a short hallway led to the true treasure vault - this was only an outlying room of 'extras'. The hallway had strange bent tube-like arches across its ceiling and shallow troughs in the stone-work of the floor.

OOC: So sixty feet to the idol if you don't want to go into the hallway.

“I can get to the idol,” Auraia said to her companions. “It would be easier if I could walk some of it, but I can just teleport there and back. Wouldn’t take more than ten or twelve seconds.

"Uh... I think that ghost wants something. Can we do it? No need to pick a fight with everyone...."

After hearing Torbin's translation, Sesto looked back at the ghost and said in a slow voice; I am sorry. I did not mean to offend you. Let me return the item immediately.
Sesto turned to walked towards the spot where the trinket landed. As he passed Auraia, he whispered; Get the idol when I distract the ghost.
Sesto picked up the trinket and, as the same time, dropped a coin which he had cast light on moments before so that the room was still in light. He walked back and returned the trinket to its former place. Here you are. Back to where it belongs.
As a distraction, Sesto picked up two other items and exclaimed; Wow!!! Look at these. So beautiful. How long have they been here?
