Legacy of Death Part I: Most Infamous Danger

[dyermaker001]

Nar-Heru conjures up his mage hand and directs it into the pit. He will use the hand to press on the floor of the pit, press on the spikes, anything to verify the stability of the floor and walls. I guess it can only apply 20 lbs of pressure, but it's worth trying.

You take a fair amount of time. The hand makes it almost all the way towards the end of the pit before reaching the limit of its range. It seems like stone with metal spikes.

"As far As I can tell, it is what it appears. Let's get that rope tied around Lucien and get him down there. After he's checked for traps, we can follow."

 

[TerraDave]

(Just to clarify, Lucian is good at various things, but in terms of just finding stuff, he is not the best).

Forge will examine the area for traps or other indications that the floors walls etc can or have moved.

 

[TerraDave]

You conclude an extremely thorough examination. It seems to be a pit that fills the width of the hall, goes 30 feet ahead, and has wide set, rusty, spikes.

This is the Pits...

Hopefully this will be the other "fortuitous" pit.

Perhaps I should go down instead of Lucien. I'm better at finding things, and I'm decent at climbing. Just a suggestion. Feel free to drop Lucien down there if you disagree...

 

[ecayford]

"While I admire your bravery, I think I should take this as we can hardly afford to see you injured."

Forge will tie a rope around himself and hand the healer the other end. Perhaps Buckthorn can help hold the rope.

If anyone has any other ideas, now is the time!

Planning Ahead

Fair enough. Perhaps the next chance we get, I could teach someone the healing arts (someone could train the Heal skill). If I fall in combat, it is a simple matter for anyone trained in healing to invoke my natural healing abilities (ie trigger my 2nd wind).

 

[ecayford]

Forge will use the rope to lower himself into the pit. He will cross the pit, examining the walls and floor for secret doors and dangers.
