Crypt of the EverFlame (Inactive)

Game Master GM Sapphire Fox

You see a door to the south and hear a winning noise and empty hallway to the north

-Posted with Wayfinder

Yes. That's why Yumna asked about the south door while standing next to the door on the left-hand wall.

Yuman follows the others into the hallway.

Gotcha, my apologies. I had just messed up the direction on the map so many times...

sorry yumna i missed you asking about that door.

Theoden calls out to the north

"Hello!?"

Tge whinning from behind the door suddenly stops.

-Posted with Wayfinder

"Who's there? We're adventurers from town."

Theoden says "It could be survivors..." as he moves up to the southern door and listens carefully at that before waiting for his party to catch up and be ready to open the door.

"Hang on, something about this seems strange." Qaji inspects the door for signs of danger before opening it.

Detect magic.

perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

"Survivors?" Yumna questions. "How did they make it this far if the key was inside the golem?"

As slithren calls out and theoden moves by the door the whinning abruptly stops and goes silent.
Qaji there is nothing magical about the door.

"Let's go find out, then." Qaji opens the door and takes a look inside.

"Hello? Does someone in here need assistance?"

As you turn the door knob you notice the door isnt locked but it only moves inwards a very little bit before it hits something solid. It seems like it might be barricaded from inside the room. The door is not open far enough to see into the room.

"Qaji can you push the door?"

"Is there anyone in there?" Yumna repeats their question. "Do you need help?"

Yumba give me a perception

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10

You can hear some shuffling around inside the room as is someone was moving around.

"g..g...g...go away you foul hell spawns."

Theoden shouts back "We've come from the town to help!"

"We mean you no harm. We heard your cries and came to your aid. Clear whatever is blocking the door so we can enter!"

diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

You hear stuff kinda sliding around and the door opens a crack and a man peeks out.
"from town you say. Does that mean the monsters are gone?."

-Posted with Wayfinder

"The ones we've encountered do far, yes."

"We don't mean to harm ya bud. Ya can come out!"

"i know its safe in here, i just want out of this place." he closes the door and you can here more things moving around. About a min later he opens the door all the way.
"i hope it is safe to leave. We came here to clean up this place and make it safe. We were never expecting the dead to rise. Is anyone else alive?"

-Posted with Wayfinder

Theoden replies "We haven't seen anybody else yet, we still have quite a bit to discover. I know it's hard but tell us what you know as we walk towards the entrance."

"I dont know much i know there are 2 lvls to this crypt. Though we locked the door that you need to go down and put the key in a room and built a campfire in it so you could rest. We were making all the traps safe cause its only supposed to be a trial. Kinda a right of passage for kids to adult hood. But something terrible has taken over this place. please make it safe and do return with the flame." he kinda walks wide around all the bones in the main entrance room. "And i will leave you with this My tines be long, My tines be short, My tines end ere, My first report. What am I? Answer that and you will have knowledge of whats to come. " he waves goodbye and hurrys on his way back to town.

The Slitheren Kid scratches his head as the man walks away.

"Not sure what he meant by that?"

"Ah?" Yumna shrugs. "Which room had the campire?"

That would be a room you have yet to discover yumna. Where would yall like to go

-Posted with Wayfinder

"Let us try this door, here," Yumna suggests, waiting for Theoden to join them before trying the door.

Theoden nods, heavy crossbow at the ready.

As yumna grabs the handle she notices that it turns freely and that she is able to open the door

The remains of a small fire smolder in the center of this broad
chamber, letting off a plume of oily smoke. Fed by a heap of
burning gear, debris, and more than few bones, the fire casts a
flickering light across the walls of this room, partially obscured
by the veil of smoke

The Slithern Kid looks around the room while holding out his pistol.

perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

As slithren looks around the room he doesnt spot anything out of the ordinary

-Posted with Wayfinder

-Posted with Wayfinder

The Slithern Kid moves over to the key and grabs it. "Look at this!

"Careful! It may be hot!" Yumna shouts, too late.

Qaji waits in the hallway while the others check the fire.

@GM thanks I'll move back away from the shadow.

"Ouch that hurt! I don't feel so good"

Theoden draws his wand of cure light wounds and moves up with Yuma, attempting to hold the shadowy creature at bey with his wand.

Qaji, feeling strangely weakened by the shadow's touch, steps back away from it and begins his song.

+1 enhancement to weapons. If its already +1 you can choose instead one of these qualities: dancing, defending, distance, flaming, frost, ghost touch, keen, mighty cleaving, returning, shock, seeking, or speed. Some of those might be useful here.
