Koraero Firironna - Sun Elf Rogue 2

Scotley said:
Pointing to the chest they found, "Hey Kor, you want to look this thing over before we try to open it? These little guys seemed to be fond of traps."

Koraero looks at Mindal with over-dramaticized indignation. "Why would I know anything about that kind of thing? What do I look like some kind of thief to you??" Koraero's voice suddenly trails off as his eyes become transfixed by the lock on the chest. Under his breath you hear, "Ooh, is that a Kisiran lock...??" Koraero hustles over to the chest, searches it for traps with an almost childlike wonder. Assuming he finds no hazards, he then tries to open it.

OOC:
Wasn't sure if you wanted to roll these "off-camera" or not.

Kor gleefully inspects the chest for any traps and upon looking in the lock sees a tiny needle set upon a spring waiting for anyone to tamper with the lock. He can even see some green substance dripping off the needle that he expects is some kind of poison. He chuckles to himself as this is an easy trap to disable and he is so accomplished at disarming it he thinks that he could even re-set the trap if he so wishes to do so.

Upon opening the chest he is greeted by the gleam of gold coins and the sparkle of a few gems. It seems that the world has dissolved around him as he starts to slowly pluck the gold coins from their resting place and starts to count them. After getting about half way through counting them he notices a few other things at the bottom of the chest as well, a platinum ring and some potions of a type he has not seen before. At the very bottom of the chest he finds a folded parchment that when he opens it he sees what looks like a map and some form of writing on it.

Mindal Human Scout

"Thank you Kor, I have a feeling that we would have found that green stuff to be most unpleasant. Your talents are greatly appreciated and I intended no slight in asking you to save me hide once more." Looking over the goods and restraining his desire to play with posible magic, Mindal asks to see the map.

As the two of them bring out the chest, Sten says, "It would appear that these little vermin were rich. It is of great benefit to our good fortune that we decided to camp in this cave tonight. I can check for Magic if you wish." He then proceeds to cast detect magic on these items and those recoved from the master unless someone objects.

Koraero Firironna - Sun Elf Rogue 2

Koraero fumbles around with the treasure from the chest and hands the map over to Mindal. Not even waiting for him to take a look at it, he says, "So whadda you think? Is it a treasure map?"

OOC:
While fumbling to get the map to Mindal, Kor tries to palm one of the gems for himself.

Sleight of Hand is +10, for a result of 26

Reinn Aasimar warmage

Reinn watches Mindal unfold the map, his curiosty peaked as to what it could be.

"Are any of the objects magical?" He asks Sten, once he has completed his casting.

Elocin · Sep 1, 2005

Sten begins to cast the detect magic spell as Kor fumbles the map a bit as he hands it over to Mindal. Reinn approaches Mindal to get a good look at the map as he begins to unfold it. Sten finishes casting his spell and notices that the wand, ring, amulet, 3 potions are indeed magic. As he lifts his head up to announce to the rest of the group that these things are indeed magical he notices that the map is glowing a bright blue as well and yells out an alarm.

Mindal freezes his actions as Reinn respectfully takes a few steps back, just in case.
