"So what you gots in mind, longshanks?" asks Nagbur as he squints up at Idris.

Bah, time has not been my friend of late. But I just need to hang on a while longer...

Regarding loot, Stinky would benefit from the Headband of Mental Prowess +2, if that's alright with everyone. And no reason he can't at least wear the Cloak of Resistance +1 until we get back to base and discuss sell-offs.

EDIT: Just noticed Fish expressed interest in the headband also. Wisdom is Stinky's primary stat but if our friendly loveable kobold can benefit, I'm cool with that. Your call, Fish.

Rather the healer get the stat buff. It's only a slight upgrade to my weak casting.

Fish hangs on to the scepter for skeleton bashing purposes. "Yeah, what we do? No find key and big nasty up here."

GM, the Queen spoke of a "top floor", whereas the advisor was on the "next floor". Does the staircase go beyond the floor you currently have us on?


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

As Ama throws a hissy fit, Almalik tosses the crown to her in disgust.

"Take the damned thing then, you mewling imbecile!"

He storms off after the group, finally coming to the next door. He beams delightedly at Idris, having quite forgotten his own explosion.

"Excellent. You are a man of grace and quality. So the advisor is on this floor, and we must get past to reach the top floor. If we cannot continue this way, I suggest we send somebody stealthy. I can procure an invisibility spell for such a purpose if so required."


Guild map | Jade regent

The staircase was only to this floor.

The moment Axe touches a door a loud click can be heard. A fraction of a second later a large scythe comes from a slit in the wall and pierces Axe. The scythe remains stuck in his leg.

7 dmg after DR reduction.
Last bit is flavor.

Rolls:

Atk roll: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27
Dmg roll: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 5) + 4 = 10


Male Kobold Bloodrager 5/ Dragon Disciple 2 (HP 62/62 | AC:20 (19) | T:13 (11)| FF:18 (17) | CMB :+7 (9) | CMD:19 (21)| F:+9 (+11) | R: +6 | W: +4 (+6)| Init: +2 | Perc: +8 | Speed: 40)

"No move Axe. Fish try get you out." The kobold says as he takes out his tools.

Disable: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20


M Half-Giant Trailblazer (Aegis) 7 | HP 67/67 | AC 21 T 11 FF 21 | F +10 R +5 W +9 | CMD 24 | Init +1 | Perc +12

"Axe...", he pouts, not liking the blade in his leg.


Guild map | Jade regent

Fish successfully removes the blade from Axe's leg. After a short inspection you enter the room and find a fairly large study. Two large tables are set against the wall and are littered with half fallen apart items. A bookcase is set against another wall and has some scroll still in it, although they look as fragile as the ones you have found before. lastly there is a small chest in the corner of the room.


F First Folk - Time Thief/7 (HP 52/52 | AC:19 | T:13 | FF:16 | CMB:8 | CMD:21 | Fort:+5 | Ref:+9 | Will:+5 | Death effects:+2 | Init:+3 | Perc:+5 | Speed 30)

Motes: 13/13 | Aevum: 1/1 | Rune of Healing: 1/1

"I can disable traps like that," Ama tells the others in a matter-of-fact way, while curiously watching the scythe's removal from Axe's leg.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Ama takes a quick look around and realizes this room has walls. While marveling at this extraordinary fact, Ama walks over to the chest and tries to open it with her masterwork thieves' tools.

Disable Device: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Disable Device: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28

If we'd actually use Perception to check things, I could try to disable future traps that we spot and are worse in nature.


Guild map | Jade regent

Normally I would roll for you with traps but Axe was quite clear in his description :P Walk to the door and touch it, cut it to pieces unless someone makes any objection.

Ama starts fiddling with the lock on the chest but is unable to clear the lock. However after she tries to open it she discovered it was never locked.

The chest contains a small book, which looks fragile, and some long dried pots of ink. There are some remains of things that resemble other writing gear.


M Half-Giant Trailblazer (Aegis) 7 | HP 67/67 | AC 21 T 11 FF 21 | F +10 R +5 W +9 | CMD 24 | Init +1 | Perc +12

Axe thanks Fish a well deserved hug, then goes to lil Stinky.

"Aaaaaxe?"

Language: Axe, 16+ Strength, or DC 15 Linguistics/Sense Motive:

"Could you fix my boo-boo?"


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

"Axe is asking if you could procure some medical aid for his poor injured leg," translate Almalik absently.

"If you can disable traps, Ama - perhaps check that chest. One trap typically means there shall be more. If it goes off or not, I'll remain back here."

Scanning the room with detect magic.


Guild map | Jade regent

Almalik scans the room but finds nothing.


Male Kobold Bloodrager 5/ Dragon Disciple 2 (HP 62/62 | AC:20 (19) | T:13 (11)| FF:18 (17) | CMB :+7 (9) | CMD:19 (21)| F:+9 (+11) | R: +6 | W: +4 (+6)| Init: +2 | Perc: +8 | Speed: 40)

Fish moves toward the next door, checking it for traps before opening it.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20


Guild map | Jade regent

Fish finds nothing on the door and enters the room. This room, also a study, is a more luxurious version than the previous one. Only two writing desks are in this room.

A quick inspection of the room reveals several more books but nothing special otherwise. You check the next door and deem it safe, bringing you to the a room with a desk, a large chest and a filled book case.


Male Kobold Bloodrager 5/ Dragon Disciple 2 (HP 62/62 | AC:20 (19) | T:13 (11)| FF:18 (17) | CMB :+7 (9) | CMD:19 (21)| F:+9 (+11) | R: +6 | W: +4 (+6)| Init: +2 | Perc: +8 | Speed: 40)

"More books. Amalik you want read them?" Fish says as he inspects the chest.

Perception for traps: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

If it looks safe he will check to see if it is locked.


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

"Fiine, get the highly-educated, attractive, and intelligent man to do your reading. I suppose I can suffer through it," smirks Almalik before he wanders over to start poking through the books.


Guild map | Jade regent

Fish immediately moves to the chest and takes a good look at it. He finds no traps and also notices the chest is unlocked.

Almalik moves over to the book case and grabs a few books out of it. A lot of the books look to be about the history of the kingdom this used to be. A lot of them are ledgers kept by the king. Two books stand out, the first is a large tome where the other is a small book pushed a bit back amongst the other books.


Male Kobold Bloodrager 5/ Dragon Disciple 2 (HP 62/62 | AC:20 (19) | T:13 (11)| FF:18 (17) | CMB :+7 (9) | CMD:19 (21)| F:+9 (+11) | R: +6 | W: +4 (+6)| Init: +2 | Perc: +8 | Speed: 40)

Fish opens the chest to see what is inside.


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

Almalik grabs both the tome and the smaller book, inspecting them.


Suli Brawler 7 (HP 74| AC:20/15/17 | CMB: +13* | CMD:27* | Fort:+10 | Ref:+10 | Will:+7 | Init:+5 | Perc: +11)

Idris moved into the room to make sure he could protect the others if something was to suddenly appear. He moved perhaps a little too close to Fish, trying to see what the chest held.


F First Folk - Time Thief/7 (HP 52/52 | AC:19 | T:13 | FF:16 | CMB:8 | CMD:21 | Fort:+5 | Ref:+9 | Will:+5 | Death effects:+2 | Init:+3 | Perc:+5 | Speed 30)

Ama looks over Almalik's shoulder, curious about the books. "What are they about?"


Guild map | Jade regent

Fish opens the chest, just as Almalik is inspecting the books, and a trap is triggered. Mist slowly starts to ebb from the chest into the room.

Books:

The tome looks to be a spellbook of sorts. Though you are not sure from just the outside. The small book looks well used and torn at places, this may be a diary of sorts.


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

"I. Er. Uhm. Well..."

Almalik stammers as the mist begins to seep into the room.

"I might suggest we clear the room just for a moment."

With that, Almalik bolts from the room with the books in hand, whipping off his towel to jam it under the door, provided the rest of the group follows.


Suli Brawler 7 (HP 74| AC:20/15/17 | CMB: +13* | CMD:27* | Fort:+10 | Ref:+10 | Will:+7 | Init:+5 | Perc: +11)

Idris didn't need to be told twice, and was out the door before Almalik finished speaking.


Male Kobold Bloodrager 5/ Dragon Disciple 2 (HP 62/62 | AC:20 (19) | T:13 (11)| FF:18 (17) | CMB :+7 (9) | CMD:19 (21)| F:+9 (+11) | R: +6 | W: +4 (+6)| Init: +2 | Perc: +8 | Speed: 40)

Fish scampers out of the room shouting. "Fish checked first, you saw Fish check first."


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

Almalik calls over his shoulder.

"Ama! Can you tell me what that mist smells like?!"


Guild map | Jade regent

Everyone managed to get outside before the mist filled the whole room, although Fish only just in time. The mist dissipates over some time and you are able to continue.


F First Folk - Time Thief/7 (HP 52/52 | AC:19 | T:13 | FF:16 | CMB:8 | CMD:21 | Fort:+5 | Ref:+9 | Will:+5 | Death effects:+2 | Init:+3 | Perc:+5 | Speed 30)
Abilities:
Motes: 13/13 | Aevum: 1/1 | Rune of Healing: 1/1

"It smelled like elderberries," Ama tells Almalik.

"So what's in the books?"

Ama takes the diary-ish book from Almalik and opens it.


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

Almalik properly reads through the books, checking the tome first, and then flipping through the diary.

"A diary and what... may be a spellbook."


Suli Brawler 7 (HP 74| AC:20/15/17 | CMB: +13* | CMD:27* | Fort:+10 | Ref:+10 | Will:+7 | Init:+5 | Perc: +11)

"Well, don't keep us in suspense. Let's find out if they are going to be of use to us before Axe opens that next door."


Guild map | Jade regent

Sorry for the long wait! Haven't been feeling well of late.

Almalik starts reading the book and soon discovers that it is indeed a spellbook he has in his hands. A spellbook for a fairly powerful necromancer. He sees a large assortment of spells that crafts unlife out of dead flesh and bone. Though the books looks good on the outside the inside is worse for wear. Several pages have been torn out and a lot of it has become unreadable.

The diary confirms what you have heard earlier.

Spells inside the spellbook:

6th— create undead, circle of Death, symbol of Fear, sirocco
5th— baleful polymorph, teleport, waves of fatigue, suffocation, blood boil, ghoul army
4th— animate dead, enervation, fear, wall of fire, boneshatter, bloatbomb
3rd— blink, fireball, fly, ray of exhaustion, vampiric touch, lightning bolt, call the void
2nd— blindness/deafness, resist energy, scare, scorching ray, steal breath, blood armor, invisibility
1st— alarm, burning hands, cause fear, detect undead, expeditious retreat, mage armor, magic missile, sculpt corpse, ear-piercing scream
0th— bleed, detect magic, read magic, touch of fatigue


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

Almalik nods happily, closing up the spellbook.

"An excellent repository of magical knowledge, albeit with a focus on the living dead. Still, this will augment my own considerable powers nicely. Come, let us go on."


Guild map | Jade regent

Where are you going? Or what are you going to do?


Suli Brawler 7 (HP 74| AC:20/15/17 | CMB: +13* | CMD:27* | Fort:+10 | Ref:+10 | Will:+7 | Init:+5 | Perc: +11)

Have we actually opened that door to the north to reveal that room? I don't remember that one


Guild map | Jade regent

Everything visible has been opened. I fast forwarded to the northern room since there was nothing special in the previous room.


Suli Brawler 7 (HP 74| AC:20/15/17 | CMB: +13* | CMD:27* | Fort:+10 | Ref:+10 | Will:+7 | Init:+5 | Perc: +11)

Idris shrugged and walked into the new room, his eyes scanning for any sign of threat. If the adviser was supposed to be on this level, there couldn't be too many more places for him to be.

"Axe, get in here and get ready to hit something...hard."


Guild map | Jade regent

There are two doors, one leading to the stairs and one leading to the adviser. The southern door has a fairly rich look to it, the northern door looks simple and plain.


Guild map | Jade regent

It's up to you to open or destroy a door. This is a point where I can't forward you.


Suli Brawler 7 (HP 74| AC:20/15/17 | CMB: +13* | CMD:27* | Fort:+10 | Ref:+10 | Will:+7 | Init:+5 | Perc: +11)

"Well, we need to find a way up, and I've never heard of anyone making ornate stairways. On the other hand, regal advisors seem to be known for ostentation, so I imagine the northern doors are the way up."

Idris listened at the northern door. Assuming no one has a better plan, and that he doesn't hear anything that would change his mind, he tries to open the door.

perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25


M Half-Giant Trailblazer (Aegis) 7 | HP 67/67 | AC 21 T 11 FF 21 | F +10 R +5 W +9 | CMD 24 | Init +1 | Perc +12

"Axe!"

Sounds good, although I did not understand a few of the words you said!


Guild map | Jade regent

Idris guessed right and you climb the stairs. Once you come to the top you hear the door closing behind you and a lock sliding into place.

As you enter the room you discover that is is a fairly big room. At the center is a raised area with stairs leading to it from every side. At the center of the raised area is a very large bowl held up by a large stone claw. The bowl contains a very clear liquid.

On each wall are two small openings just above the floor. Above each opening are circular slits carved into the wall.
Each white marked wall square has the above, see the drawing next to the map to see what I mean. :)


M Half-Giant Trailblazer (Aegis) 7 | HP 67/67 | AC 21 T 11 FF 21 | F +10 R +5 W +9 | CMD 24 | Init +1 | Perc +12

Axe wants to drink the liquid, but thinking about what happened with the door, he wisely waits for one of the smarter folks test it out using their "mahgeek" or "aaaaaayes".


Male Kobold Bloodrager 5/ Dragon Disciple 2 (HP 62/62 | AC:20 (19) | T:13 (11)| FF:18 (17) | CMB :+7 (9) | CMD:19 (21)| F:+9 (+11) | R: +6 | W: +4 (+6)| Init: +2 | Perc: +8 | Speed: 40)

Fish starts to panic as the door closes and locks behind the group. "TRAPPED! FISH NOT LIKE TRAPPED!" he shouts as the works to try and unlock the door.

Disable: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26

Probably not going to do anything, but he's got to try.


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

Almalik strides into the room, looking around with great interest.

"Oh stop it Fish, this is merely a test. Thankfully you have me here, and thus we can be certain to pass it."

Almalik quickly weaves a detect magic spell, and then paces around the room, inspecting everything closely. He peers intently into the holes in the walls.


Guild map | Jade regent

Fish walks back down and finds a solid wall instead of the door he expected.

Almalik uses detect magic and discovers that the bowl has magical properties. The moment he steps close to inspect it metal bars shoot up from the ground and block access to the giant bowl.

The holes in the wall seem to be about two feet deep, there is nothing special about them. The circular slits in the wall and it seems like the back of the slits are uneven.


F First Folk - Time Thief/7 (HP 52/52 | AC:19 | T:13 | FF:16 | CMB:8 | CMD:21 | Fort:+5 | Ref:+9 | Will:+5 | Death effects:+2 | Init:+3 | Perc:+5 | Speed 30)
Abilities:
Motes: 13/13 | Aevum: 1/1 | Rune of Healing: 1/1

Ama sits down with her back to the door.

"Almy's doing his magic stuff," she whispers to Fish, who trying to open the doors. "Are you also feeling excited?"


Male Kobold Bloodrager 5/ Dragon Disciple 2 (HP 62/62 | AC:20 (19) | T:13 (11)| FF:18 (17) | CMB :+7 (9) | CMD:19 (21)| F:+9 (+11) | R: +6 | W: +4 (+6)| Init: +2 | Perc: +8 | Speed: 40)

Fish growls at the door, "No, Fish get angry. No like trapped."


Male N Human Arcanist 7 | HP: 40/51 | AC: 20 (14 Tch, 15 Fl) | CMB: +2, CMD: 14 | F: +4, R: +6, W: +7 | Init: +6 | Perc: +0, SM: +0 | Speed 30ft | Resevoir: 5/10 | Spells 0/5, 3/5, 3/4 | Active conditions: none

How far apart are the bars? And the backs of the slits are uneven how?

Almalik blinks as the bars shoot up, blocking him from getting to the bowl.

"Rude," he mutters offhandedly. "Well, I suppose the depressions in the wall could have something inserted in them, although with so many I'm not sure what it could be."

Almalik compares the sizes of the scepter and crown with the holes in the wall.


Guild map | Jade regent

The bars blocking the way to the bowl are about two inches apart, blocking anything from going in or out.

Almalik grabs one of the crowns and holds it in front of the circular holes in the wall. It would be a perfect fit. After a closer inspection he also discovers that the crowns, both of them, are uneven at the top. Which would make them a sort of key.
