The Bold Adventures of Poins--In the Woods!

[RillianPA]

"Yes very well, lets go." Marcus leads the way, doing his best to watch for any traps.

 

[Rhialto]

As they enter the dark hole, the group finds themselves in a small room, filled with huge jars. A single torch is flickering. Strange when you consider this place has been abandoned for centuries...

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Devon

Devon enters the room giving the jugs as wide a birth as he can. He walks over to the torch and examines it. The badger sniffs around the jars.


ooc: everburning torch?

 

[jkason]

Liev, shortspear ready, surveys the room, keeping the pattern for his fire trick in the front of his mind.

"So, you don't suppose we'll just find a sign that says 'ancient evil artifacts this way' lying around, do you?"

 

[RillianPA]

"I doubt it. Well, let's check this torch." Marcus carefully examines the floor and wall near the torch for any traps, then the torch itself.

ooc:Are there any other exits from the room.

 

[Rhialto]

The torch, on closer examination, seems to flicker with an eternal flame.

As for the room, it is a 40' by 15' hall with a door on the southern side, and something of the air of a storage facility. You find no obvious traps, though there's a strange scrurrying sound being made by the jars as you pass them.

 

[Argent Silvermage]

Devon

Devon grasps the torch and removes it from the wall if he can. "Wonderful! It's a magical fire. I'll take it with us." he hesitates for a second upon hearing the scurring and hopes his badger will leave whatever it is alone.

 

[jkason]

Liev makes sure to put the men with the axes between him and the jars before asking "All we know is that the Azerai have nasties here, right? So ... should we check the jars to see if that's where they stored them, or look around some more first and check the jars on the way out?"

 

[Brain]

Hemaor guards the rear, with his wolf. (is there room enough to ride in here?)

He sniffs the air, wondering at the contents of the jars.

 

[RillianPA]

"Even abandoned, this place must have had at least a few visitors. I doubt any powerful ancient unholy artifacts will just be lying around. However, I dont think we can really afford to ignore anything either. Beh. Well Hemaor, why dont you cover me here while I open these jars."

ooc: Marcus will wait for Hemaor to stand next to him, and for everyone else to prepare. Then he will open one of the jars, while leaning far back to avoid anything leaping/shooting straight up (use the lid as a shield if possible). If nothing happens, he will examine the jar. He will continue this process until something happens or there are no more jars.
