Six From Gate Pass - Chapter 3: Shelter From The Storm

Kirio lets out a deep breath he had not been aware he was holding... "I hate undead, so... Unreasonable. Well, now that the old bag of wind is gone, why not see what he was so anxious we leave alone yes?". Kirio puts away his green bow and walks over to the hidden vault to see if he can open it and see what's in it...

Ooc: kind of a pain to select text with the ipad, so i'll forgo colours etc for now... Time for some beer and pork pie!!!

GM: The stone block is massive and looks extremely heavy. To access the vault or whatever may lay hidden behind the block requires a Strength check.

Lars, the evening wanes on and eventually you head back to the party's house. There is no sign of your friends, nor for the next few hours. It is well into the night before you realize that they are likely not coming back this day.

"I doubt i can move this, but let's see..."
Ooc: strength check

 

[Bannock]

Bannock, pale, and still a bit hunched, looks over at Hrimr. "I... I don't feel so good. Something happened when that thing touched me. It wasn't like getting hit by no hammer. Something else, like being turned inside out, like it was breathing me in! I couldn't let it touch me again..."

Bannock looks at Kirio struggling with the block and decides to try to help, thinking he just needs to shake off this weak feeling.

"Ungh, no use. Whatever that spirit did to me, it's left me weak as a kitten."

 

[digimattic]

Arnir looks at the two struggling with the block "Surely it is not that heavy?"

Arnir slings his bow over his shoulder and brusquely steps in front of Kirio and Bannock. With a grunt, he pushes the stone, and with the grind of rock-on-rock, he sends it tumbling to the floor.

"Honestly."

The block falls to the ground with the thud, kicking up a cloud of dust and revealing a hidden vault. Inside the vault sits an ornate set of tools: smith's hammer, chisel, knife, etc. They have runes carved into them and are made from precious materials. Here and there are the cog-shaped emblems of the church of Gond. Next to the set of tools is a stack of stone tablets. Each tablet has had script carved into them, almost like an ancient scroll.

 

[digimattic]

Arnir picks up his bow and rubbing his hands together hopefully, he casts detect magic on the items in the vault.

 

[The Bashar]

Hrimr cracks a smile when he sees the wiry elf topple the stone. But he is worried about Bannock's lack of strength. Hrimr lacks the knowledge about unnatural creatures to figure out how to help him. He turns to Kirio to inquire.

"Kirio, you knew what kind of creature that was, do you have insight into what's afflicted Bannock? I can treat wounds of the flesh, but this seems to be something different."

Arnir, the tools radiate a faint aura of transmutation magic. The tablets are non-magical and they appear to be written in the common tongue.

 

[Bannock]

Bannock gazes hungrily at the tools. He takes up the hammer and tosses it from one hand to the other. "Now these are a pretty set! Do you think we could make magic blades from tools like these?"
