[PbP] The Heroes of Silleria

[MerakSpielman]

The flagstone (untrapped) pulls away easily, revealing a very narrow tunnel, bored through solid stone. It is about 3' wide and 2' high. Holding your light to the entrance, you see that the tunnel ends at another flagstone after about ten feet. There are no cobwebs - it looks like the stones fit the ends well enough to keep out the vermin.

It is possible to crawl through, but not with backpacks or any armor heavier than light.

Kerith replaces the stone where it originally sat. "Argh. It's a tunnel, not a treasure hole. It can wait until morning. Unless the majority disagrees, I say we leave it be for now."

Kerith helps himself to another half-bowl of ale, but will stop before he gets loopy. [Will save? Seriously, how does inebriation work in DnD?]

"You know, I sure wouldn't mind finding the larder around here. Some bread, cheese or jerky would be nice..."

 

[Guilt Puppy]

Oren, perhaps heartened by the ale, is more intent on the hole.

"I think I can wriggle through that... Does anyone have a rope? Hell... Do I have a rope?" He looks -- he doesn't. "Someone, tie me up and tug me out if you hear a scream that sounds like me... Or like anyone else, for that matter. Even if I'm winning I'd rather not be fighting alone."

Oren stares intently down the tunnel, plotting ways not to burn himself with a torch on the way through.

Kerith looks at Oren sardonically: "Uh-huh. And what happens when ya poosh that last stone out into three tribes full of goblins, huh? No, you'll not be getting my rope for that!"

If harrumphing doesn't become a nineteen-year-old slum kid, Kerith seems not to notice.

 

[Uriel]

Norynth moves to the hole, listening to the enibriated talk of his Companions.
Lookig down into the hole he whistles for Titus to come forward. Letting the litle dog sniff at te entrance for anything worth sniffing <Scent>, Norynth looks to see if their are signs of Goblins...
Thinking to himself This is the perfect size for Goblins to traverse, coming uponus unawares...

 

[Thanee]

Alexi also peers into the little tunnel behind the Stone. Is there the same layer of dust inside, which covered the rest of this area?

I don't have a rope with me, sorry. But I'd really like to know what this tunnel is meant for and what lies behind. It doesn't seem that anything is living down here, really, so dangers should be pretty small, I think.

 

[Uriel]

Norynth says to Alexi 'Careful, there may be centipedes, but even more dangerous is the backside of little Titus there, he had bacon and beans for breakfast...'

 

[Imerak]

Foran cracks a genuine smile when they find the liquor. He pours himself a bowl of wine and sits down on the floor, sipping it. "Vintage," he jokes with a stupid grin on his face. When the tunnel is revealed, he looks at it curiously. "Pretty small...just big enough for goblins to go through comfortably...or any of us small folk..."

 

[Thanee]

Maybe we could just use some kind of staff or pole to push the second stone into the room beyond?

 

[MerakSpielman]

Letting the litle dog sniff at te entrance for anything worth sniffing <Scent>, Norynth looks to see if their are signs of Goblins...

A thick layor of dust covers the floor, though the stones kept most of the dust out of the tunnel. You see no signs of recent habitation of any kind. Titus sniffs at the entrace to the tunnel, sneezing as he gets some dust in his nose. Uncertainly, he sticks his head into the tunnel a bit and keeps sniffing. He turns to look at Norynth, who can tell he's confused about something. Titus sniffs again, and apparently decides he's nervous and with a slight whimper returns to his master.
