Chumtooth searches the bodies of the flayers, recalling that they fired poisoned darts at the party. Assuming he finds usable darts, he adds them to the darts in his poison sheath.
He then uses his kukri to remove any remaining intact heads, assuming he himself did not completely cave-in their skulls with his morningstar.
He eyes the masks suspiciously.
"Check them for bad magic," he says. "If no magic, or no bad magic, we keep for ship deck-oar-aye-shun," he suggests with a rumbling chuckle.
Dantes will cast Detect Magic on the masks, and try to evaluate if they may have some financial value for the group. Appraise
"Bah, not worth much. We'll take them though; their price will help restock bolts on the ship."
Chumtooth moves to the door in the north side of the room. Assuming it's not locked, he forces it open.
"Kohanga o pungawerewere," Chumtooth says, scanning the room to the left.
"A large spider nest."
"Many, many little spiders or a few big ones, I do not know."
He looks back to the others to see if anyone offers suggestions.
"We might be able to burn them away, but that may destroy anything valuable amongst them."
Dantes will cast detect magic and carefully scan the shadowed room, hoping to detect a lost relic concealed here.
"An' suck out all the air," Vic muses. "Just lemme know on that fire thing."
Chumtooth decides to risk it, entering the room with his morning star and kukri in hand.
"Use fire if you need, I do not fear fire."
"Alright. Back up!" Victoria yells out, and rolls a Flaming Sphere down the hallway.
Chumtooth is caught off-guard by the sudden appearance of the rolling fireball, he moves back to avoid getting caught in the flames and burning webs.
"There is a door," Chumtooth says pointing towards the West passage.
Getting no reaction from the crew, Chumtooth shrugs and turns to the door, he pauses a moment to listen for noises beyond it.
Dantes moves up behind Chumtooth, ready to imbue him with arcane advantage should it be needed.
Keeping his morningstar in hand, Chumtooth forces open the door.
Chumtooth enters the room and approaches the well, keeping an eye out for anything dangerous.
"There is a tun-nel inside the...the...paitewai, near the water," Chumtooth says to the group, gesturing to the well shaft.
"Hmm. Yes. That's quite a drop. How do we get down there? I haven't a rope, and I don't have a spell at the moment that would do the trick."
Chumtooth looks down the walls of the well shaft, trying to determine how difficult it would be to climb; taking into consideration the roughness of the shaft wall, how slick the wall is, and how possible it would be to brace against the opposite side of the shaft.
Chumtooth looks at the others expectantly.
"Climb down with no rope, or move on?"
"I'm not climbing, so someone would have to carry me," Vic points out.
Chumtooth holsters his morningstar and climbs over the edge of the well. Bracing his feet against the insides, he carefully makes his way down to the opening.
Dantes shakes his head at the prospect of climbing down. "If you find multiple passages there we need to explore, maybe we can knot up the rope well, and lower Victoriana down."
Dantes watches as Chumtooth goes down. He holds a flask of alchemists fire in hand in case something appears below Chumtooth.
"The water is shallow. There is a small tunnel. We must crawl in the water to get inside," he calls up to his companions.
"I will look inside," Chumtooth says as he moves cautiously into the tunnel. He peers into the dark, allowing his light-sensitive eyes to take in as much of the dim surroundings as possible.
Chumtooth continues to move into the passage at slow, cautious pace. If it becomes too narrow to move forward or too dark to see, he stops and moves back towards the well shaft.
Not wanting to find himself in pitch darkness and half-submerged, Chumtooth makes his way back to the well shaft.
Once he makes it back to the well, he calls up to his companions. "The tunnel goes far into the rock, but there is no light. My eyes cannot see the path without some light that water will not..." He pauses as he searches for the word. ...make dead."
"Yep, got you," Vic replies, and pats Chumtooth on the back, adding a Light spell to his armor.
Vic instead casts light on a copper piece, and tosses it down to Chumtooth.
Armed with a light source, Chumtooth makes his way cautiously back into the tunnel.
Chumtooth approaches the skeleton cautiously. He draws his morningstar, if there is room in the well, and prods the skeleton with the spiked head.
Reasonably assured the skeleton is not going to attack, Chumtooth moves closer to examine the remains. He looks to see if it carries any salvageable gear.
