[QUOTE="megamania, post: 3134212, member: 9255"] THE CREATION SCHEMA SEGMENT 279 10/01/06 “Enter the Lair of the Claw” After taking a few moments to collect magic items from their killed teammates (to sell later) the three survivors crawl down the hidden catwalk into the cavern openings under the dock. The tunnel is rough and acts as a spillway for the bay when the tide is high or rough. There are signs of many people walking in and out which doesn’t persuade Cedious, Pebbles or Talon from entering the possible Xen’drik HQ of the Emerald Claw. After about 250ft the rough rock cavern / grotto begins to be worked and made easier to travel. Eventually two large heavy doors appear within the sight of Cedious’ lantern. Looking at the lock he is uncertain at first how to go about it. The handle and locks are about five feet high. Cedious requires help to reach the locks. Once steadied, he easily opens the lock and together they open the doors built by Giants. The hallway is plain stone and 20 foot wide and twenty foot high. They go about 100ft before reaching another door. This one is open and allows only a person of medium size to fit. Talon needs to suck in his breath to fit through. The hallway here branches off to the right. They opt to go forward instead. This leads to a room that is 40x50 feet. There are three branches from this room along with a huge crystalline statue of an armored giant with a shield and a saw-edged scimitar. Cedious finds a plaque below but the inscription has been nearly completely destroyed by a vandal. At this point a hidden undead creature attacks. Pebbles attacks it quickly doing a great deal of harm. The undead bone cleric calls on its help. Two Giant skeletal Cloud Giants enter the fray along with several spiked smaller skeletons. Surrounded, they fight their way out. The skeletons explode when destroyed causing a brief moment of confusion and dismay. Especially when the giants explode and two members are hurt when caught in the explosion. Even as they rest for a moment and look over the weapons and gear the undead had more undead creatures attack! Skeletal Nessian Hellhounds attack. Their fires burn and belch from their guts through their mouth. The group is more concerned about if they explode when destroyed than the fire. With these destroyed, the group looks into the room these and the skeletal giants came from. Bones of most every type of humanoid can be found here. Pebbles looks them over and sees several are under magical augmentation. He destroys these before they are complete. They have the choice of going forward or to the right. They turn right. [/QUOTE]
