Etham smashes the bug into pieces.

Combat over!

Dawneye consumes to the poison. Dex damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

another Fort Save please

Everyone notices a passage way that leads east.

The Black Crow moves to the entrance to inspect the next room.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Heal, Treat poison: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

Etham tends to Dawneye.

Fortitude, Treat poison: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 + 4 = 12

Flavias cover Etham and Dawneye with his bow as they provide and receive first aid.

Dawneye shakes off the poison as the Black Crow moves to inspect the next room and sees a snarling humanoid that barks something at the party.

A broad well with low sides plunges into the middle of this
large chamber. A heavy iron cover leans against the east wall.
Near the well, a mound of gnawed bones, scraps of clothing,
and discarded possessions speak to some unholy feast. From
deep within the well rises a series of faint scratches, scrapes,
and breathing.

Flavias warily looks at the creature but then looks down at well, casts light on a piece of debris and drops it down the well, his curiosity getting the better of him.

Knowledge (nature): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

"Does anyone understand the wretched creature?"

knowledge nature: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

"I think it wants you to rub it's belly?" smirks the Black Crow.

You can hear the screams of many more of the creatures coming from the hole in the ground. It looks ready to charge Flavias as it grabs a bone from the floor to use as a club.

Combat! You guys are up

The Black Crow shrugs as he pulls out his guitar, "It won't matter what he's saying once I start playing..."

The usual bonus...

Etham charges the creature and orders Dawneye to do the same.

Handle Animal DC 10: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 4 = 15

Attack, charge, IR: 1d20 + 4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 4 + 2 + 1 = 27

Crit?: 1d20 + 4 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 2 + 1 = 16
Extra damage: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 = 6

Dawneye follows Etham, swooping in for the kill.

Damage, IR: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 + 1 = 7

Not hearing the combat, Galdaric moves into the room; upon getting there, he realizes that there is combat, and he continues to move, trying to circle around.

Double move.

Etham's attack hurts the creature badly. The rest of you are up!

Flavias looks over at the heavy iron cover in the corner, back at the well, and over at the cover again.

He then shoulders his bow and goes for the lid, hoping to mostly roll it into place

strength check?: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

Flavias is unable to move the heavy iron cover. But he hears perhaps dozens more of the creatures down in the dank dark hole.

Wyldyrn delays. I'll move things along

Dawneye tears into the beast who dares to hurt his master.

Talon, IR: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 2 + 1 = 5
Damage, IR: 1d4 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 + 1 = 5

Etham winces at the impact and inches his way towards a flanking position before attacking.

Attack, IR: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 1 = 13
Damage, IR: 1d8 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 1 = 8

Flavias notes "There's a whole lot more coming from down below and I think this lid may be too heavy for me."

strength: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Flavias struggles again to roll the lid over.

Sorry on my delay everyone. I had an incredibly crazy-busy week... Long story.

Wyldyrn rushes into the room and gets ready to assist Flavias in moving the lid back into place.

Double Move.

Galdaric moves up behind Etham. He casts a healing spell, and winces as he feels the burning of the positive energy in his hand. He touches Etham.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

The Black Crow moves to assist Flavias.

str: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

"Blimey! You're right, it's not going to budge."

The party is unable to hit the creature or move the heavy iron cover. The creature strikes at Etham again but Etham dodges.

Strength Check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 Oh come on! Not a single roll over 10 from any us...

Along with the others, Wyldyrn strains to lift the heavy lid, but he cannot seem to get his fingers just right.

Etham and Dawneye drop the creature as the party continues to struggle to move the heavy iron cover. As the strange cries from below grow louder..

the rest of you are up..

"Someone help me with this cover."

The Black Crowe will attempt to assist.

strength: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Flavias and the Black Crow have been able to move the heavy 10' but the hole remains uncovered as the cries get still louder. The metal cover lays next to the hole.

I'll throw you two bones. :) Etham and the Black Crow give me STR rolls. Who's the primary if the other is aiding? 2. The rest give me perception checks

Wyldyrn will aid with the strength checks. A raging song definitely could've helped here.

Strength check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Etham has a higher str so the Black Crow will assist.

str: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

"Someone get ready with some paint or something... I think we need to mark this seal with Gorum's eye..."

Strength: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
Folio re-roll, 4 stars: 1d20 + 3 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 3 + 4 = 17

Etham heaves on the lid.

"I have ink in my backpack!"

perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Flavias tries to help get the lid in place.

strength aid?: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

The four of you drop the heavy lid in place but you hear scratches on the other side.

knowledge history check or arcana to draw the symbol :)

Galdaric attempts to guide the others in properly scribing Gorum's Eye.

Take 10 on Knowledge (arcana, history, and/or religion) for a result of 16 on each one. In case it helps, also take 10 on Profession (Librarian) for 15 and Linguistics for 17.

Galdaric is able to guide the party in sealing the lid.

combat over

A search of the room turns up a backpack in the corner under the pile of bones.

Wyldyrn falls against the the well with a heavy sigh. "That was too close."

Etham searches the backpack while commenting on the events here.

"Close, but we made it. Anyway, the professor wanted us to learn about protective Kellid glyphs, and I'd say Gorum's Eye qualifies."

Flavias nods to Etham "Good thinking, in all the excitement I nearly forgot."

The backpack contains contains
a few basic blacksmithing tools as well as a tin of
alchemical cement. Underneath the bag is a gilded
breastplate bearing the canine heraldic symbol of a
lesser Ustalavic family. The parties search turns up nothing else of interest.

If no one else wants it, Etham will don the breastplate.

"I guess we'd better report back to the professor."

Flavias nods at Etham's statement.

Reporting back to the Professor he seems pleased with your report. "This Eye of Gorum most surely sounds useful. Rest a bit. I have another task for you soon

the end of this part

Wyldyrn stares at the lid to the morlock warren below. "Perhaps we could use that cement to reinforce this place to keep those beasts securely below."

The Black Crow will cast detect magic on the armor.

The black crow doesn't detect any magic on the breastplate.

the next message is up

"Great. Apparently after all that, we get to now play fetch? There better be a good bar near his office..."
