Rappan Athuk Old School

Game Master brvheart

"That feels much better!"
"Thanks, Kaztor!"

"Do you think the rat men had anything worth taking?" While Kaz is healing Gruk Elathras searches the dead bodies.

just in case, perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

One has a rapier, 2 vails, 24 arrows and a short bow.
The male has a cloak, rapier, short bow and 20 arrows.
The four warriors each have rapier, shortbow, 20 arrows, 2 gems (25 gp each), 3d12 cp, 2d6 sp, 1d8 gp.

cp: 12d12 ⇒ (4, 11, 3, 8, 1, 6, 12, 1, 5, 5, 3, 2) = 61
sp: 8d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6) = 35
gp: 4d8 ⇒ (3, 8, 5, 4) = 20

"That wasn´t very.... safe. Those were beasts are dangerous. How do we safely fight them?"

@ brvheart, was Elathras' roll high enough to tell if any of the items were masterwork?

Elathras gathers the gear from the dead, looking at the weapons carefully, asking as he does, "Hey Gruk, can you tell if any of this stuff is magical?"

I can't access the party mule in roll20, does someone want to put this stuff on it?

Beltin sighs.

"I cam make a silver coating for our weapons with my lab setup."

"Let's hope we don't meet those creatures again. Even if we do they'll think twice before trying to attack us again."

"Okay, Elathras. Let's have a look at some of this gear."

Wdrozgrúk will cast Detect Magic on the newfound loot, to see if any of it is actually magical.

spellcraft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 (if needed)

Nothing detects as magic, nor is masterwork.

Realizing that in the fight his silk scarf had slipped off his acid-reduced nose, he pulls it back up, nodding to his half-orc friend.

"Thanks Gruk!"

As Gruk looks at the items, Elathras picks up the torch he dropped; carrying his hammer in the other hand, he begins to proceed down ?the stairs, moving slowly keeping a keen eye out.

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (3) + 13 = 16
he will only move about 20 ft ahead of the rest of the party.

Beltin moves ahead , but is far from stealthy.

stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13

Kaz plods along behind the others, knowing their group has already been seen and heard by any creature in the vicinity.

stairs going down to level 2.

New map is up!

The air here is foul and eight giant rat corpses lay about, apparently torn apart by some wild animal. Blood spatterings cover the entire area.

once Elathras gets to the bottom of the stairs, he calls out "Look Gruk, a tunnel, and dead rats and lots of blood." Elathras turns to the right (going north) keeping a keen eye out, he will head to the door to north on the western wall and check it for locks or traps.

perception: hallway: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18
perception: door: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

"Indeed!" Wdrozgrúk agrees with Elathras.

Wdrozgrúk will follow Elathras and keep his eyes open for anything moving (or valuable)

perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13 (meh)

@brvheart: what's that "X" thingy on the map?
A structure of some sort?

Daal stays toward the front letting Elathras lead the group.

"Dead rats below. Dead rats up top. Seems that something doesnt like these rats as much as us. Doubtit will like us walking through its territory. Let's be readyfor it."

A loose tile in the floor at “x” (DC 10 Perception to notice) hides a secret compartment containing stagnant water and the bones of a small animal.
The north door has been scratched and hacked with a handaxe that is
still embedded in it (DC 16 Strength check to remove). The key is in the lock.

Elathras smiles and points to the door "Look Daal a hatchet" then grasping the handaxe he attempts to pull it out of the door. "Huh" shrugging his shoulders he turns the key in the door and attempts to open the door looking inside.

str: hand axe: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24

"Gruk can you see if that hand axe is worth the effort of removing. If it has no enchantment on it better left where it is I'd say." he moves closer to Elathras suspecting that he'll need to aid the elf soon enough. Nothing in the place was as it seemed.

"Okay, let's have a look."

Gruk will cast Detect Magic on the hand axe.

And in the secret compartment; just in case.

No magic. The secret compartment containing stagnant water and the bones of a small animal.

Beltin joins Elathras in carefully looking for traps on the north door and anything amiss.

perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

was elathras successful in his attempt to open the door and look inside?

After opening the door to the north with the hand axe in it and finding a hallway that runs east and west, Elathras smiles at Beltin "Look Beltin they gave us a key!"

Elathras happily takes the key out of the door and returning to the door near where the stairs were, on the western wall he inspects the door for traps and theninserts the key and attempts to unlock the door looking carefully inside.

perception:traps: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17
perception: room: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27

Elathras shrugs his shoulders, "What do you know, Belti? This door has a hallway too! Shall we go down it?"

Elathras puts the key in his pouch and with hammer in one hand and torch in the other he enters the hallway keeping a keen eyey out.

perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

"Why in the world would someone keep animal bones and nasty water in a good secret compartment? Doesn't seem to make much sense. It's a waste, if you ask me."

"You find the traps my barbarian friend, and I'll disarm them. Let me get out a bomb."

Beltin gets out a fuse grenade to soften up an animal lair.

"Find me the critter, and I'll make him hurt."

Well all the sudden those in front hear a door creak followed by the rattling of bones, but no one can see anything now.

Kaz casts Bless on the crew.

Please remember your Bless bonuses.

[Dice=Will]1d20+7 Does the paladins aura help?

That is the Aura of Courage which you need to be 3rd level Paladin now and he split 2/2 so the simple answer is no.

With a blessing, Beltin avoids the urge to bolt.

Technically, you should be saving during the surprise round, but if you do not wish to run I am ok with that:)
