Shards of the Titanswar

Game Master EldonG

Doran slightly annoyed that Jun wasn't the murderous cult leader he will help the man off brushing the limping man over the shoulders a few times, nods his head at the men before jumping down into the cellar.

Cauis follows into the passage, javelin in hand again.

Reiko sidles in behind Caius, katana at the ready

Aya follows her companions.

At the end of the fairly short passage is a stout wooden door...

Reiko moves silently up to the door and listens.

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

...not exactly silence, but very quiet. You would doubt there's anyone...or thing...close by.

After Jun is let go he follows the others. hustling to keep up.

OK...who is carrying a light source...and what kind?

Reiko has light prepared if he needs to cast it.

You low-lighters are good, but humans can barely see the door at the end of the passage.

...just sayin' ;)

Antonio has a lit torch in his left hand.

OK...plenty of light then...at the door...

When Reiko give the all clear, Antonio will have him open the door and press through.

The door opens into a small cloak room. Some cloaks hang on pegs on the wall...(yes, those cloaks...or close enough) there is an open cabinet with candles...chalk...incense...and some small crystal bottles.

There are two other doors out...directly acoss, and on the right wall in the far corner.

Aya moves to view the room. Do the crystal bottles contain anything? Does detect Magic detect anything?

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Antonio moves to the door directly across, listens at the door.
Perception at door: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20

Aya examines the contents of the bottles.
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Speaking softly, There is a faded magical aura coming from behind the door.

Doran looking eagerly at Cauis questioningly motions if he should "open" the door with his shoulder. [ooc] Upon Cauis' nod the half orc will shoulder check the door with extreme prejudice 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16. If not given consent he will wait at the ready preparing to lunge at the first enemy to exit from behind the door.

Reiko tightens his grip on his katana with his right hand, and curls his fingers on his left, getting ready to cast a spell on whomever comes out of that door, or to follow right behind Caius and Doran if he breaks the door down.

Cauis nods, lifting his javelin into throwing position.

Is nobody else going to roll Perception?

Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20

"Is that green glow under the door to the right magical? Or is it from the other door?"

Jun has been in a number of raids while a guard to recognize everyone readying for battle. He readies himself for what may be behind the door.

I rolled a 20 at the door.

I ended up with a 21 (19+2). For some reason it wouldn't let me post it.

Just being clear...do you want to go to the door where the glow is...or not?

The aura is coming from the door on the right, not the one directly across from us.
Aya is still concentrating on the aura trying to get more info on the magic.

I was at the door directly across; I guess the not glowing one.

Reiko is prepared to kill whatever is behind the magical aura door.

Doran growing anxious with the party indecision will start to huff and groan before slamming into the door not waiting from party consent. 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

The door opens easily enough, exposing another short passage with a door at the end.

The magic is gone, faded away. Perhaps being carried by someone or something.

"So let's go find who it was. We need to be careful of traps or an ambush as he or she most likely knows we are here now."

Attracted by the attention of the others to the other door, Antonio goes over there and looks in. Seeing nothing, he goes back over to the first door and turns the handle to open it.

I'm assuming that Doran opened the door directly across...that's where the hall is.

The door to the right is unopened, so far...unless I'm mistaken.

OK, I think that was my door he opened (the one directly across).
Seeing it clear at the moment, Antonio moves over to the glowy door (Right corner) and nods for the others to open it.

Again, the door opens easily. Steps lead down into this room, which has a high arched ceiling. All eyes are drawn to an...altar...some fifteen feet away. On it sits a thick disc...with greenish runes around the circumference.

It does nothing, yet somehow its very existence mocks you.

Reiko moves to see if the runes are the same as the ones on the rock at the first farm. He also casts detect magic.

The runes are very similar...some may indeed be exactly the same. Who all has moved into the room, and how far?

Reiko would be heading directly for the altar, concentrating on detect magic

Jun sees the strange object and says,"What is that thing?"

Jun moves with Reiko, wanting to get a closer look. No detect magic spell known for me

With the others checking out the altar, Antonio steps into the room and starts to check out the walls, moving clockwise looking for doors or other openings.
Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

Cauis grimaces, frustrated with the villain's ability to evade them. He tries listening to find a direction.

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27 Perception

OK...I'll assume everybody else is close to the door. Now...in case it matters, this pedastal is far enough from the wall to get behind.

Reiko and Jun have approached it...and Antonio headed left from the door...

A grinding noise starts up, and a secret door on the right wall, in the far corner starts opening...

Reiko pulls his katana up into an attack stance, and prepares to cast a spell in his left hand while he shouts
Stop there! Doran, Caius, I found the person!

"I see him too behind the door!"
