Roles her eyes at Misha"s holy mumblings. .... " I will go second if no one minds" she says to the party in General. The wolf she notices, but only hopes it will fight when the time is nigh. She tightens her ponytail before descending in the stairs.....Bastard sword drawn....
 

Burian Slavochka

Burian shrugs as the three proceed down ahead of him. "As da said, never volunteer" With a chuckle he steps down behind Stanislava.
 


Brata Scythor, "Slavic" Druid 2 / Sorcerer 1

"Hehe, torch bearer it is, big man.", says Brata as he slings his crossbow and pulls out a scimitar from under his thick bear furs. He'll grab the torch from Cholodny, and take a central position, giving light to the spearmen in the front.

The party descends into the crypt, which is a square room somewhat smaller than the main church room above. The walls are covered with markings of sarcophogi, presumably where former volhovy of this church are buried.

On the floor of the crypt is an open trapped door that has obviously just been forced open. Below the door is a space about 3X3x2. It is completely empty.

The floor is covered with tracks, similiar to those above.


None of you are familiar with the church of Mokosh (OOC: I assume that is the case; if one of you wishes your character to be a follower of Mokosh and you are a suitable alignment for the neutral god of nature, let me know.) so you can only guess as to what was in the crypt.

(OOC- I know it sounds lame, but I never did pick a god, did I? Being a pretty nature based character, I may as well say that she's the one I'm worshipping, with a slight nod to Dogoda and Volos. Usually as a druid, I make up some Neutral nature god, like "The Four Winds", but since we're being specific, why not? If this is too far into game to make it happen, lemme know, ignorance is fine by me!)

Takes her sword and modestly bangs her sword against ths side and bottom of the pit to look for any trap doors or false sides o bottoms.
 

Misha, Human Paladin

"I don't get it" says Misha. "Where did they all go?"

OOC: I understand that the tracks above lead only TO, not also FROM, the altar?
 

Dm

OOC: Sorry, the tracks do lead TO and FROM the alter, and clearly in and out of the crypt.

The party can now discern that whatever group of monsters/people attacked this church, they clearly came down to the crypt, forced open the trapdoor, probably took something, and left.

I'm preparing a follow-up post to this, should be up tonight
