Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

[Voadam]

Jossen moves out of line a little to give himself a clear shot at anything that might be hostile. He nocks an arrow. Almost thankful that there may be a real flesh and blood advesary, "Anyone know what could make that size of foot print?"

"Lothian's burning pyres, haven't you ever seen an ogre laborer before? They're all over the city. Ignorant foreigners."

Ignoring the rude half-orc Garnet scans the cellar. "The author of the journal said that he had prepared the basement..." Garnet begins to follow the large foot prints on the floor. "Perhaps there is a concealed door? If we follow the foot prints maybe they will end at a wall..."

"Quite clever, Garnet!" Vanden whispers his praise. "There should certainly be more than we see before us..." He trails off, slightly coloring at the thought of what inhuman horrors might await them, if the journal's discussion of sacrifices might be true.

[sblock=ooc]Untrained Search check as he looks around. Probably not all that useful, but what the heck.

And a big D'OH!!! for the Voadam/Garn mixup earlier. Good thing he didn't say that out loud.[/sblock]

Vanden searches all four walls, knocking on them, pushing at the warped timbers, but cannot figure out which, if any, conceals a passage onward.

Vanden scratches his head, stumped. "Perhaps there is another cellar, or another way down here?" He looks back at his companions for suggestions.

[sblock=ooc]Crap- just realized that with Grant gone, we have no one with ranks in Search in this group. [/sblock]

"Where do the footprints end?"

 

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

The wet sandy floor isn't uniformly wet or sandy: There are patches of older stone showing through and in other areas, the sand is dry and hard-packed after untold years of this space being used as a cellar. As a result, the footprints come down from the stairs, move a small ways away, and then disappear onto the stone.

"Ewan? Do you live in the docks? A dock worker perhaps? My parents operate the crane over on Pier 6. Sort of where I get my name from, Ironcrane that is." Maugra says trying to encourage the man to calm down and hopefully reveal more information.

 

[Whizbang Dustyboots]

"No," he whispers shakily. "I don't work nowheres, I just make my rent taking money from sailors what think they're more clever than they are."

Stands in the basement scratching his head. "Arn't you just a brilliant detective! HA" Garnet shakes his head at the disembodied voice in his head. "No more bright ideas? Imagine that!" Garnet scratches his head trying to ignore the voices.

"We must have over looked something... I still believe that there is more to this cellar!"

[sblock=ooc]I too will begin to search the walls and floor of the cellar.[/sblock]
