[LPF] The Inheritance

[Satin Knights]

"Gee, I do. Stand back, and we will see how this goes." Once everyone has moved back a bit, Tasanto with his long arms and longer hammer first pushes on a door, then alternates and hooks the handle and pulls on the other one.

As Damaris thinks about it she is pretty sure she had it right the first time: the painted carvings here in the hall depict Sumbru's founding and the ghostly manifestation they encountered earlier are from Sumbru's fall into darkness. At this time, however, it is all history.

The door swings easily open when Tasanto pushes it with his hammer, a testament to the finely balanced craftsmanship of the doors as they look quite heavy. The interior of the vault is partially revealed: the entry is covered with a fine carpet in a style recognized as coming from Rhat'matanis. Beyond can be seen the glitter of jeweled coffers and scattered coins and other wealth but mixed with those riches is filth. Rotted stores, likely packed away during the siege of Sumbru, scattered about by rats and mice litter the carpet and it looks like the dessicated corpse of one of the rats lies squarely in the center of the carpet.

[Satin Knights]

"That was too easy. Wait here. I want to check for traps and move the carpet before we all go wandering in." Tasanto approaches the doorway carefully, taking an very long time to study it and poke for traps before moving a bit in and inspecting the rug equally as vigorously.
[section]

[sblock=actions]move to I7. Take 20 check for traps at H7 (only find mechanical ones with a 34), Same inspect H8, move to H7, again take 20 checking G7, G6, G8, move to G6, etc.
In other words, take a very long time to inspect before going in. Intend to eventually move to far side of carpet and pull it south west to be sure solid floor is underneath. We got plenty of time, right? Either I find a trap or a critter bonks me on the head while I am flat footed and staring at the floor. Or I waste a lot of time being too cautious.

"Ooooh, if the carpet is not trapped we should take it. It might fetch a good price." she nods at Tasanto and approaches carefully to the inside of the room. "Ugh... the smell"

"Could mister dickens check for any of his cousins? I hoped they wouldn't try to swarm us, heh. I do have some vermin repellent for me, but I was hoping to use that during the way out through the sewers"

She casts dancing lights to go around the room.

Cast Dancing lights to illuminate the room better. Invisible castle is not opening for me, GE, could you roll perception and spellcraft for me if needed?

Tasanto begins his methodical search once again. The first few moments go relatively well: no traps of any kind are found and he is able to move into the entryway. As he does so he hears a slight rustle of cloth and turns in time to get an impression of teeth, claws, and moldering robes rushing him from behind the door. Before Tasanto can properly react the creature has buried fangs in his shoulder and ripped out a sizable chunk of flesh. The thing follows up its bite with a pair of slashing claws, only one of which hits scoring jagged bleeding wounds across the cattaur's abdomen.

Damaris has stepped up to the door, Mister Dickens shuffling just behind, and lit up the room with her magical lights when the quite obvious sounds of combat fill the room. She sees blood spray from Tasanto and catches sight of a dessicated corpse animated by some sort of dark energy that leaks from its eyes and mouth.

GM: Combat Round One: everybody is up.

[sblock=Combat]Hm. Crit in the first round. Not good. Still, I have no doubt you'll have it killed in three rounds or less.
soulnova, maintaining detect magic requires concentration (which takes a standard action) so you can't maintain and cast another spell in the same round. I'll presume you opted for lights over detect magic since without the light Damaris would be at a big disadvantage.

"Yeeooowwwwlllrrrr!" Tasanto instinctively drops his long hammer and turns on the creature that just bit him. A heavy claw clashes it across the chest, tearing through it's robes and skin. The return swipe of the other claw only manages to tear cloth and not flesh. The unliving look of the creature is enough to deter Tasanto from biting into it. "Undead thing here bit me!" Tasanto sidesteps further into the room to keep the creature pinned with its back against the wall and cut off any retreat path.
