Meilu sticks her head into the room and looks for traps.
And then backs out and sits down for a bit, because that's one nasty room.
I think I'm going to be sick.
As you step into the room, a 10 ft by 10 ft cage falls from the ceiling hitting both of you for 8 damage. A skeleton lying limp in a harness in the cage jerks to life and rips its way out of the harness, waving a scimitar.
Kandoo comes right behind the others, weapon in hand, and by pure luck saves himself from falling in the trap. The eyes of the antipaladin immediately search for enemies.
Owwwww! Help!
Manny gets as far away from the skele as possible and spits fire at it.
The skeleton's arm and scimitar lash out from between the bars, slashing Kandoo. However, its single minded focus leaves it open to Manny's fire attack.
Asassi attacks through the bars with her falchion.
Manny!
Meilu tries to slip aound the cage to get into a flank.
Kandoo attacks the skeleton back. The hobgoblin expression is cold, focused, and he seems engaged into the activity as if it was a day job.
With Kandoo's attack, the skeleton breaks into its component bones. You notice that there are two vials of liquid and a scroll tube on the table. They vials radiate faint conjuration, and the scroll tube radiates evocation and transmutation.
Identifying items:
Manny has no idea where he is.
Gemme out of dis cage!
Kandoo, help me get this cage off him, it's heav-EEK! ITS GETTING BACK UP!
She kicks at the pile of bones.
The bones rattle out of the cage and reform back into a skeleton!
Asassi takes a swing with her falchion, but misses.
Manny passes
Meilu slips into flanking position with Asassi.
And misses horribly.
Kandoo ignores the skeleton for a moment and tries to bend the cage open so Manny can escape.
Manny wiggles out of the cage!
The skeleton takes a swing with its scimitar and claws at Asassi, missing
Many and Meilu bravely slay the skellie for good this time!
Meilu lashes out again, aiming for a gap in the spine.
Asassi flanks with Meilu, swinging her falchion, the two hits, although not as effective as it might be against a flesh-and blood person, succeed in dropping the skeleton for good.
That was a tough skellie! Let's try looking around the room for any goodies. Manny looks around the room.
Meilu searches around, wrinkling her nose at the nasty bits.
You don't find any loot or traps
Let us continue down the hall to the other door.
Yeah, let's go. This place is icky.
Meilu proceeds to the next door, and checks for traps.
A section of the floor is hinged, causing Meilu to fall down into a pit, about 10 ft deep, with spikes at the bottom.
As soon as the pit opens, a giant purple spider rushes out of an alcove at the bottom of the pit, climbs up to the top, and webs the trap door shut again.
Asassi stomps on the trap door, trying to force it open, and succeeding. She the holds the door open so the spider can't web it again.
Manny shoots at the spider
OWIE! Help! Meilu stands up
Manny's bolt is deflected by the spider's thick carapace. A mist suddenly rises up out of nowhere, concealing the pit.
Meilu starts climbing the walls, regardless of any spider that may be in there with her.
Get the spida!
Meilu escapes the pit, but gets bitten by the spider on her way out.
Asassi shuts the the trap door.
I'll help you Meilu.
Manny casts CLW
Ow ow ow, it stings!
Oh dear, let me see if I can help with that bite.
Meilu takes STR damage, but she gets a +4 to her next save due to Manny's aid.
Meilu stands up shakily. Ugh. Thanks Manny. I think I'll be ok
How about we try the door again?
Sure, let me look at it again.
Carefully avoiding the trapdoor, she checks the door for traps.
The door doesn't appear to be trapped.
Manny pushes it open sneakily.
Meilu follows sneakily.
The walls and ceiling of this room are hidden behind a thick, gray-white forest of spider webs that blocks all vision beyond ten feet. Webs are everywhere, creating a maze of vertical sheets. Gray, furry dust clings to the sticky, white webs. The desiccated, shriveled corpse of a long-dead man hangs spread-eagled across one of these layers of webbing, and rusty swords, daggers, and axes hang securely from others.
Since he is not very stealthy, Kandoo hangs, back, but Asassi heads into the room.
Manny sees Nuffink!
Meilu sees Nuffink as well!
Asassi tells you she hears a faint clinking sound.
Manny lifts and eyebrow when Assai speaks of the clicking sounds and waves others to back up before he whispers. Clicking might mean another nasty in there, those webs make me nervous so I'll burn em if that is ok with everyone.
Sounds like a plan. Meilu whispers back, and backs away from the webs.
