Memories and Portents Chapter#1: A Dark and Stormy Knight

Khyl followed as well. Characteristically silent, though the normally fearless Shifter was still somewhat shaken by the Magick Induced Fear. Unused to the sensation he visibly tried to shake it off, like a dog coming in from the rain.

"A Dragonshard Ring? A Rare and Wondrous find..."

OOC: Ice knocked out my power lines...Sorry guys.

Xerxes sidesteps the others to place himself in the lead. He heads straight towards the door on the othher side of the room. (We went in the left door, so now he's going in the right befre going in the one in front of the entrance)

The party makes their way out of the sarcophagus room and trudges back towards the main entrance chamber, a wide radius of illumination followng them. The sounds of the storm raging outside seem even more ferocious. Xerxes at the head the party (I assume) crosses the main chamber through the right doorway. After 50 steps along a ten foot wide corridor, they come upon another room.

This room is empty save for dust and a single, small stone chest in the center of the floor. Evidently no one has disturbed this chamber for many years.

OOC: For expediency sake, I assumed everyone was going to take Xerxes' lead. Let me know if this wasn't the case. I assumed the standard marching formation.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Should we not open the chest?" Ardan asks excited.

We got a dragonshard in that sarcophagus, who knows what may be in that chest!

 

[Nightbreeze]

"Let me check it first....or if one of you doesn't fear traps, he should feel free to go ahead.....ok, I'll check it first"

 

[Paper_Bard]

Xerxes martches up, slides his fingers into any groove he can find, and attempts to heave the chest open. If it is locked, he will step aside and allow the thief to do his work.

 

[Asmor]

"Whoa! Hold up big guy! You trying to get us all killed?!?" Antonus sprints to grab the Warforged's arm and stop it before he can touch the chest. "Noone just leaves a chest lying around! Let me give it a quick check in case it's trapped or something." The lanky adventurer snaps his head back and forth, eliciting loud pops, and then laces his fingers together to cause another long string of pops. "Lucky for you guys, trapped goodie boxes just happen to be one of my specialties."

OOC:
Antonus searches the treasure chest.

OOC:
Antonus searches the treasure chest.

OOC: How much time are you going to take to search it. I.e. are you taking 10 or 20?

 

[Asmor]

OOC: Just a plain old check. 1d20+9 (I think that's my skill modifier)...

 

[SecondTime]

Antonus: After a minute of inspecting the chest, you are unable to find any hint of a trap.
