"I need to check for traps, but if you can tell me if there is magic in there, it will make it easier for me."She moves back from the doorway to allow Phar a better view of the room. She steps into the other room across the corridor and begins searching the room for traps or hidden treasure.Standing at the doorway, Phar checks for any active auras in the room. There are two that he can see. There is one that covers the entire floor of the room and another emanating from the book-filled bookcase. The aura on the floor is quite strong while the aura on the bookcase is only moderate in power.While Phar concentrates on the auras, Aureus finds an old pouch filled with coins stuffed under the mattress of the old bed. The pouch doesn't appear to be centuries old. It looks like it was placed under the mattress more recently. "Curious."[Spoiler="DM Only"]<a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=285619" target="_blank">Aureus - Search check (for traps & treasure): 1D20+10 = [15]+10 = 25</a>(there are no traps)Old Pouch: <a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=285620" target="_blank">Contents of pouch (1 or 4 gold 2 potions or 3 magic item): 1D4 = [4] = 4</a> (coins)<a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=285621" target="_blank">Platinum, gold, silver, and copper coins:</a> <a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=285621" target="_blank">1D4 = [3] = 3</a> (platinum)<a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=285621" target="_blank">2D10 = [8, 5] = 13</a> (gold)<a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=285621" target="_blank">3D10 = [6, 10, 6] = 22</a> (silver)<a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=285621" target="_blank">2D10 = [4, 4] = 8</a> (copper)[/Spoiler]After Quinn joins Maur near the grate, the two of them try to lift it in unison. The gladiator-knight fails to notice that he is partially standing on the grate and he and dwarf champion try to pull the grate up from the floor.Caerth clears his throat behind the two of them. As the they look back, Caerth points to Quinn's foot on the grate. Quinn moves his foot out of the way and they try again. The metal creaks but the old sandstone floor holds the grate firmly in place. It was built to last, it seems."I don't think we need to worry about these old drains and cisterns," Caerth suggests. He steps past Maur and Quinn onto the large grate, kneels down, and looks through the grate to the bottom. "There is only a trickle of water down there. Hmm, scrub moss. And, that, that is black brittlebush. It's fairly common in desert areas. I wouldn't eat it, but it is good for starting fires. I don't see anything dangerous growing down there. It is probably home to all manner of tiny insects and small animals. I don't want to burn it out unless it is absolutely necessary.""But, if it rains, won't the temple flood if the drains are clogged with weeds?" Aureus notes as she steps back into the corridor."It would have to rain a lot for that to happen," the half-orc druid replies. "It would have to be an intense storm." He stands and shakes his head. "Most storms that come in from the the sea hit the land north of Carnell near the Hazepoint. Still, it's possible.""I'm more concerned about making sure we get rid of any taint left by the nightshade," he adds gruffly. "But, we can't linger here too long. We must get Brutus' ring back for Lady Pendour. But, after that is done..."The half-orc druid trails off. He seems distracted. He shakes his head again. "Phar, what have you found?"</blockquote>
