Legacy of Death Part II: Graves of Lesser Immortals

[kaltfeuer]

Key

Assuming that nothing extraordinary happened from all the rolls, etc, Ghen says to Nar Heru... "Mage Hand"?

 

[ecayford]

Forge warns the others that this is no normal pool of water based on the distortion. As ghen crosses the pool, Forge prepares for the worst.

 

[TerraDave]

Ghen, The pool if about 5 by 5. Ripples flow through it and into the rivulets on the floor. You feel the pattern is linked to the strange runes on the walls. And you know water, and the one thing that is clear about this water is the distorting effect. You have no reason to believe this water is otherwise useful (though it might be safe for drinking).

You walk onto it. Your steps make the slightest ripple as you step.

You have but the briefest flash and then…are elsewhere...

A giant water serpent emerges, engulfs the shifter, who then vanishes.
You all look around, there is no sign of him (or any associated spirits).

The serpent returns to the water. The room gets dark.

Ghen: you can still scream, and make a check.

 

[ecayford]

Forge will move away from the pool and try to move around it by hugging the wall to the left.

 

[TerraDave]

It is dark...but with his general dwarviness he manages to get over to the wall.

 

[Flaming Bob]

Lucien peers at the water from his position near the entrance looking for the shifter, taking caution not to step on any of the watery areas near his feet.

For the moment, he maintains a partial vigil at the entrance, perhaps wary of being flanked.

 

[TerraDave]

perhaps...

Lucian is the only one that can really see in the room right now...and he can sort of see the key from were he is standing.

No sign of the shaman.

[Flaming Bob]

Lucien edges towards the pool. Upon reaching the edge, he looks down into the water without entering it. Realizing he could be looking at a reflection, he looks up towards the ceiling to determine if the key is above the water.

 

[TerraDave]

Interesting...the key is in fact in the water, and even you can notice there is some sort of distortion, probably making it harder to grab.

Ghen: [sblock]you manage to stand up and think you can orient yourself and return, though you did go down the river a bit. Note, you took 17 dmg from the initial strike by the serpent. [/sblock]
