Albus swings again with all the strength he can muster.
The sarcophagus was moving like a golem, its folded arms swinging at you but Albus's second blow crushes the cover sarcophagus and it stops moving after the tremendous hit he just laid into it.
Now you just need a way to deal with the rising water and malfunctioning magical trap.
Rameth quickly tries to examine the trap mechanism
"What was that thing made of, wood or stone? If it is wood then it might float and we could hold onto it like a floating log. That would keep our heads above water for a bit longer."
Azubah's shouted supplication echoes off of the stone walls.
Suddenly a thought struck Azubah. "We have the acid! We can pour it on the door-lock and get out!"
Whatever we do we better do it fast, swimming is for the fish.
Azubah my good man, could you spare a heal for me? That thing was strong...
"Oh, yes" Azubah replies, Albus's words bringing him back into focus.
"By the grace of Aroden" he says as he holds his hand to Albus's wound.
Healing
DD assuming I figure out how to do it.
Rameth
While you're trying to disable the trapping mechanism the water eventually stops rising at about two feet. You're not certain that what you're doing actually fixed the issue.
As Rameth works the water stops rising at around two feet in the room. After a few minutes you notice the water is starting to drain through the floor.
Dwalindor, please roll Perception.
What the?...I am not going to argue with success here, but I don't think that I did that.
Thanks Azubah.. Angel Eyes was saying when he noticed the water had stopped rising. Niiiiice!
Azubah drops to his knees with head bowed and says "Praise Aroden!"
He then stands and informs the others "I don't have any power left to heal, my magic is now nearly spent. I can work minor feats but that is all."
"Rameth, can you open the door from this side?"
I would assume that I can. That was stressful.
Rameth takes out his flask and takes a hit of it. Then he moves to check the lock.
Everyone search this room, see if there is anymore loot.
perception on the doors.
then DD
Perception
Azubah focuses his senses on the surroundings but he cannot concentrate. Instead, his thoughts are a whirl. Close proximity with death does wonders to distract a man.
The water is draining through the floor but you don't see a way to unlock the doors. There aren't any handles but you could try to pry the doors open.
Dwalindor notices the wear on the stone on the west wall looks different from the rest of the room. Probably a false wall if he's any judge; inferior human builders never do things correctly.
Albus searches the room for anything of value and then goes to the false wall.
Maybe we can exit through this passage. Is there any way to open it? Can we break it through?
Disable Device on that door
Albus is able to help Dwalindor determine that the west wall is a cunningly, for humans, made sliding panel made up to look like a wall.
A new corridor appears that moves farther west and turns a corner towards the north.
Please roll Perception
Did we find anything worth keeping in the room.
The trap room doesn't contain anything of value besides the fake sarcophagus - it is decorated with gold leaf which you might be able to remove from the coffin and sell.
There doesn't seem to be anything in the stonework that sticks out to you.
Rameth chips out as much of the gold as he can
Perception
"That was harrowing. Thankfully, you are a skilled and resourceful lot. I am afraid that I am limited to very minor magics for the time being, until I can rest fully."
Well hopefully there is little left in here. I wonder if the other groups are having this much tousble
Azubah's keen eyes fail to find anything unusual in the stonework beyond what the others have found already.
Rameth moves up to the next door and checks it for traps
and Disable
Lets take all we can guys, no reason to rush right now, the water has halted.
Albus nods with a smile and helps.
Azubah lends a hand with the removal of the gold leaf.
"Hopefully,the rest of this excursion will be more profitable in terms of gold and knowledge."
After a half hour the gold leaf is removed and you can head down either of the two corridors left undiscovered.
Rameth leads the motley crew down the path behind the hidden door. Club in hand, since his daggers are no long sharp he does not carry one, but reloads his wrist sheathes.
He checks the door for traps then assuming it is not locked he pushes it open.
As you open the door you see that this room holds several neatly arrayed chests, boxes, and urns. The dust of centuries covers every surface. The only exit is a set of stone double doors to the south.
"Let's start with the chest on the left wall that is closest to us. This way we don't go far into the room and let something pop out behind us from another box."
"May Aroden's vision reveal that which is hidden to mortal eyes."
doesnt he know aroden is dead? Rameth mutters.
Then he proceeds to check the box for traps before opening
The boxes and chests don't appear to be trapped, and Azubah feels a brief flicker of enchantment from the boxes that appear.
However, you also feel an aura of conjuration coming from the east wall.
Assuming that info shared Rameth draws his club and moves toward the wall
A perception role would be OK here, focused on the wall.
Hm, what's this about the wall? Azubah says, looking at the wrong wall.
