I did already make a perception check before but I will make a new one.
Oom is now very confused. Perception: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (16) + 22 = 38
Oom casts analyze dweomer on the throne.

Just the Will save Alton.

The throne has wizards eyes/floating eyes, Still can't remember spell, and a few other very faint auras.

All the books are magical, though it just seems to be a warding of preservation.

The shadows attack and drain... the strength from the vines. They will not move for quite a while. The shadows will not see the invisible man.

Tate and Wilbur decimate the forces before them, no true threats. Another 15 damage to Wilbur.

Perception DC 42:
A lizard folk of some kind, is hiding in some milfoil over in the corner of the temple.

Tate and Wilbur, what do you do now. About a dozen of them retreat away from you to the back of the temple. The main alter has a large clear orb, it seems that the blood in the area has been slowly seeping towards it, turning it more red by each round. Now the orb is blood red. Then all of a sudden they all drop to the ground in pain. Will Save DC 40/30 and then Fort Save DC 30/20. For the three of you...

Feeling it a bit safer, Ivanna and Aiden walk steadily closer to the vines. Ivanna casts detect magic and begins searching alongside Aiden.

Ivanna's Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Aiden's Perception: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (11) + 24 = 35

Both are using detect magic (Aiden has detect good and magic at will). I did realize that I left Aiden's stats as a normal imp and didn't account for his improved hit dice and such from being a familar.

Wilbur and Tate each of you have one negative level. Though looking at the sahaiguin, it could have been far worse as they all drop dead.

Bertram:
Another 8 more levels...

Ivanna you and Aiden see the motionless vines. Did you dismiss the shadows, otherwise they start looking for something else to attack. There is a magical black orb which seems to be absorbing light, in the dead center of the vines and where the roper once was.
[Spoiler=Spellcraft DC 22]The black orb is emenating a strong conjuration, and several faint necromancy auras.

The activation of the throne is either the connected one to the heart sits in the throne, saying 'I give up of myself to connect to the castle' then of what you are willing to give up, or just sit in the throne to have 'scrying eyes and message' active, or say which spell you want active.

For 8 more rooms, I will create as follows:

  • ninja/agility training room 1 space
  • 2 spaces sparring room
  • 2 spaces for a summoning room, adjacent to the dungeon
  • 2 spaces can be a dungeon of sorts for strange creatures and normal creatures
  • a dedicated teleportation room (the walls would be marked with distinct, easy-to-remember images and symbols to help those who wish to teleport to the castle) 1 space

    Was wandering what happened on our end. Decided to open up Bertram's spoiler and saw that Azulth and I were posted there. I guess I should order the shadows to do something else.

    "Good work my pet shadows. Now stand down until I have need of you," Ivanna tells the two greater shadows.

    Noticing the black orb, Ivanna and Aiden move in for a closer look.

    "I wonder what this could be. It is absorbing everything around it."

    Readying to cast time stop in case something happens, Ivanna reaches out carefully to pick up the black orb.

    "Don't!" Azulth hisses, reaching out and grabbing Ivanna's arm. "I don't know what that is, but it absorbs everything that touches it, not just light. Heard of such things? I have, though I don't know how they work."

    Sorry, it got misplaced, now just waiting on your actions.

    Azulth holds Ivanna back from touching the black orb.

    Wilber and Tate, all enemies are dead from your slaughter and likely from the level drain that affected you, though more profound on them.

    Bertram is focusing on his spells, Alton is reading?

    Oom you now know how to activate the throne...

    Now what do you do?

    Azulth lets go, putting his hands up with palms out. "I'm just saying, don't touch the thing. But, go ahead. Your life."

    The blood orb seems to swirl faster with the introduction of the new blood.

    Ivanna look up several posts to find the auras off the black orb. You think that the black orb is not a magical item, instead a spot where several spells are set. You think the conjuration spell is teleport or plane shift. The necromancy spells seem to be too faint to recognize anymore.

    We are waiting on Tate and Wilbur to act or say that they just wait for something to happen.

    [b]"Trust me on this one. I specialize in the arts of calling and teleportation. I think this strange orb is a specific point where several spells are centered. If you are so afraid of it, back up while I try something,"[b/] Ivanna say to allievate the worries of her companion.

    After giving Azulth a chance to back away if he chooses, Ivanna bites the side of her ruby lips and attempts to grasp the orb.

    Ivanna disappears.

    Ivanna and the Library:
    You teleport, you know the feeling, and your spellcraft. You are in a dusty room, the walls are covered in shelves and books. There are several chairs and tables but those are all covered in books as well. A few candles just float in the air, giving a dim light to the room. There is a door off behind you, and there appears to be a hallway at the other end of this 30 x 50 foot room.

    Azulth, you hear a strange *pop* sound come from the village.

    At the center of the abandoned village:

    Baris the halfling comes from the well made house. He smiles at the new arrivals.

    A elderly human male wizard, with a long greying beard, no hair on his head, wearing a long flowing red robe with lots of magical glowing runes, he holds a wooden staff with a big gnarl on the top of it.

    Next to him is a kobold, but one of medium stature. More to come

    The wizard says, "Leave the halfling he is of no consequence, so which way should we go? West to the water, North or South?"

    If you can see the area, feel free to look at the spoiler.

    Ho! a reaction!

    He focuses on his regenerative powers as he paints the orb entirely with his own blood

    I never did like to color in the lines! Hey Wilbur what do you make of this?

    The orb consumes the blood, making it swirl faster and faster. By now there is no blood in the temple, all of it has been sucked into the orb.

    the kobold:
    the kobold is larger then most any you've seen, standing almost as tall as a human, at 4 foot eight inches. (1.422 meters). he has a sheathed rapier at his side. His scales are gray, and he wears a light grey cloak, with a darker gray belt outside it holding it in so it was tight around his stomach. He wears a tight, plain gray headband around his head, and goggles over his eyes. He wears two plain silver band rings, and tight bracers made of silver scales. He also has an amulet, witch may catch attention, as it is made of gold, and a stark contrast to the rest of his attire. White cloth is wrapped tightly around his arms, down to his elbows. He wears a satchel, and is carrying a iron-skinned book in his left hand. He looks at everything around him, taking in the new environment after the teleport.

    "No, wait--gods damn it." Azulth drops his hands to his sides as Ivanna disappears through the orb. Well, there goes another one. Unless what she said about spells was true...? She didn't seem to have much common, but she's obviously a magician and knows about spells... Claimed to specialize... Damn. He curses inwardly, then grabs his sword and reaches out to grab the orb, turning invisible as he does so, and prepared to remain still once he's gone through any portal.
