RJK'S Cairn of the Skeleton King

[kinem]

"That skull has gems in it. It could be valuable." Anton observes. He casts detect magic, facing the skull.

Titus imperceptively shakes his head, "Or it could be an explosive, animated or some other sort of trap. What we do know is that something dropped it down those steps. perhaps our young bone rattler can make more of it?"As he turns to the corpsetamer.

Rupert approaches the skull timidly, not knowing what to think of it.

"I could check to see if this thing is trapped, but I'd much rather just set this giant loose and get out of this crazy place if we can!"

"That skull has gems in it. It could be valuable." Anton observes. He casts detect magic, facing the skull.

[sblock]You sense no magic from the skull... The statues at the other corner of the room, however, emit a strong magic power...[/sblock]

Rupert approaches the skull timidly, not knowing what to think of it.

Rupert can see no trap or technical device on the skull...

As far as he can tell, this is just a simple human head adorned with rubies...

Ooc: Little help on the critter please Mr. DM sir. What kind did I get and where is it?

Behind you...

A strange black ball steps out of the darkness and hops towards Zanax...

"I eagerly await your orders, master!"

"Calm." says Moja to the Giant. "What comes?"

The giant mumbles something, and it takes a moment until the party will realize that the monstrous creature is speaking in Common...

"The Skeleton King... The Skeleton King..."

As you are still shocked by the Giant's words, Timrek suddenly starts to cry and to yell in uttermost pain!

The flesh/scales on his arms appear to be burning, and his skin colour is suddenly, quickly, changing from green and brown into an ashen black!

 

[zoons]

Zanax pauses. More shocked by the talking doll coming out of his tan bag of tricks, than by the circumstances.

"I would like you to retrieve that jewel encrusted Skull for my friends" says Zanax to the Furbie. "Retrieve it, bring it to Anton to study, and then let me know what you see up the stairs from which it came".

"Rupert, do you think you could unshackle our large friend?"

"Titus, can you help Timrek?"

 

[ethandrew]

"Ropes were never my specialty, but I will definitely give it a try as long as he does not try to squash me. Having this guy on our side might not be a bad idea if this so-called Skeleton King is one of those devious types."

[sblock=Use Ropes]Skill check Use Ropes +5, if it doesn't succeed, he'll just sever them[/sblock]

Anton scans around the room and corridors with his magic-detection, trying to find any more sources of magic.

"The skull doesn't seem magical, but it could still be trapped." Anton states "The statues in the corner are magic'ed, so be careful."

 

[ethandrew]

Hearing Anton's warnings about the trapped skull, Rupert nonchalantly shouts out over his shoulder, "Oh, the skull is not trapped, do not worry!"

 

[Vertexx69]

Titus flies over to Timrek"Worry not my young scaled friend, I am here." Then raising his hammer above the kohbold, utters:"Holy waters that flow across this land, aid me in soothing this tortured creatures suffering."
[sblock=casting] Create water - 7 gallons over Timrek[/sblock]
Then, letting his hammer hang by its strap around his wrist, Battlehammer draws his silver wand (-----O)from its sheath, glancing down to make sure its leather thong is secured to his belt, in case the water does not help.
