Legacy of Death Part I: Most Infamous Danger

[ecayford]

Off the path

Uncertain as to how the rest of the party would cross, Forge examines the remaining available space for dangers and begins to move cautiously across, around the pit.

 

[TerraDave]

Forge, you go off the path, cover about 10 feet...and realize there is something very much like a pit-top just ahead. (ie, an open pit on the left, on the right 10 feet more and then what seems to be the edge of a pit).

 

[Flaming Bob]

Lucien inspects the box looking for hidden switches. If nothing is found, he proceeds up the path, but doesn't pass Forge.

 

[dyermaker001]

What is the light situation as we move farther into the tomb? Do I need more light to read the runes? I will follow the path to the edge of the pit trying to make out what the runes say.

Add 12 to the roll - 16.

10 Foot Pole

Since Forge neglected to bring his trusty 10-foot pole, he will tie some rope to his shovel and throw it onto what he believes is a pit trap to see if he can trigger the trap.

 

[TerraDave]

Nar-Heru: You have light coming in from outside, but someone will need to light a torch (or use their magic power...) to call forth light as you go in farther. You have read some of the message, but hope that reading more it might start to make sense.

Lucian: you carefully reach in and feel an invisible lever or handle. (Let me know if you want to manipulate it).

Forge: Shovel? If you mean a big stick you found outside, then with your dirt covered hands you tie that and throw it. Just throwing doesn't seem to triger it. Dungeoneering: May need more weight or force.


Recovery: Some of you lost a surge on the trail. If you want that back, you need a comfortable campsite and a day of rest.

 

[ecayford]

Forge waits until Lucian manipulates the lever but suggests that if someone strong can hold a rope, he's prepared to step onto the trap door.

 

[Flaming Bob]

OOC: I have no problem with resting after the first section of this tomb is scouted out. I prefer we continue to move forward up to that point.

"Hey Cutter" he whispers to Forge "Think your masterful skills can tell what this does 'efore I up and yank it?"

 

[ecayford]

The lever

Forge will examine the lever in order to determine what manipulating may do.

Tripping the Trap

We're pretty strong. (Str 16) We'll hold a rope for you. Pull hard, Mother! (We brace ourselves to hold on while you Forge steps on the trap.)
