[LPF]Treasure Hunt

[toasterferret]

Darius ponders a moment before speaking

"If something hears us breaking in, at the very least we have a bottleneck if we take this approach..."

 

[sunshadow21]

So do you want to enter this way, or try to see if the tower above has an entrance?

 

[Ehdge]

OOC: I was trying to wait and see if the others had another idea that they preferred, but I'll go ahead and go with my idea.

Ehdge looks around for anything suitable to help him pry or smash through the wall with the best leverage and effect. Before he begins, he looks around to his companions for signs of disagreement with the plan. Not seeing much or a response either way, he begins work.

 

[DalkonCledwin]

Fae'shiel sighs and attempts to assist Ehdge in breaking the wall down to the best of her ability.

 

[sunshadow21]

It doesn't take as much as one would expect it to, and Ehdge is able to push it down with surprising ease given the apparent construction of the wall. On the other side, you see a small bare chamber with a simple plain stone table/altar in the middle. The walls are covered with murals of various hobgoblin chiefs doing heroic (at least for hobgoblins) deeds and carrying out various gruesome looking religious rituals; the variation in quality suggests that they were not all made at the same time. None of them reach the quality of the now destroyed mural in the cave, but you can tell that the overall craftsmanship available to the makers of this room rose and fell over time.

The hole you came in on is on the west wall, and there is a heavy wooden door on the east wall.

 

[Artur Hawkwing]

As Ehdge and the elven maiden see to the wall, Marcus readies his bow, arrow nocked and ready to loose at the first sign of trouble. A sign that, not that he would complain, doesn't come. He enters the room slowly with the others, arrow still drawn and alert until he is sure at the moment nothing is going to attack. At this point he stops to eye the murals. One he stops and quirks an eyebrow at.

Stick figures? Really? I might could draw that.

He turns his attention then to the door, which stands closed and then to the table in the middle of the room. This he looks over carefully.

 

[Artur Hawkwing]

OOC: Like Ehdge and Darius I was waiting to see if the others had suggestions or comments to make about not getting wet stupid HElf, or whatever. Granted given that we're entering the major Holiday season in the States now, posting might slow down for some. I'll do my best to keep a post a day during weekdays and maybe get one up on Sundays if I can. I have a rather horrid cold this morning so will be checking in this afternoon from home, most likely.

 

[InVinoVeritas]

Kazanto hangs back, not entirely certain of the best way forward.

 

[DalkonCledwin]

Fae'shiel approaches the small table, or is it an Altar? And she begins examining it trying to discern it's purpose in relation to the rest of the room. While doing so she pulls out one of her two books and uses the knowledge contained within it in order to assist her in determining the nature of the room.

OOC: Cast Detect Magic, scanning the Altar, and the remainder of the Room as well. Also performing a few Knowledge checks as well as a spellcraft check (just in case). Since there is no apparent immediate threat going to utilize my Codex of Sapo to assist me in the Knowledge (Arcana) check.
