Mummy's Mask (Inactive)

Game Master Daniel Penfold 351

Canetor volunteers, being used to this sort of job. He stealths ahead, paying close attention.

Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Audi--unwisely--begins to trot along; before the gnoll is shown that Canetor may be a bit better for this type of work.
Yup; I remember a time that I may of noticed that, myself.

He sighs.

Ra, seeing the ranger push ahead, joins the parade.

Tools and notes have been placed upon this chamber's broad stone worktables with apparent significance and precision. Several sarcophagi lie along the walls, surrounded by dusty models, urns, and statues. In the northeast corner, a disorderly campsite mars the mathematical order of the room's design.

Canetor, you can see that two of the sarcophagi have been opened and then closed again recently.

”Ugh, looks like undead again,” Rhade whispers.

Once everyone is in the room, Canetor approaches one of the disturbed sarcophagi and opens it.

Audi casts Detect Magic, scanning the room prior to entering.

Izora moves with the group, trying to be ready in case a new sarcophagus opens

Hearing Navir's comment Vernon grins. "I've got some room in my pack, and a little weight doesn't hurt me any. Plenty strong even if I'm not wise right now...."

Once the way is chosen, Vernon joins the other fighter types in the lead. "Undead again? Hopefully my chain and I can convince them to just be dead again!"

Audi, in one of the bedrolls there is a magical aura.

Canetor opening one of the sarcophagi you find a body wrapped in banadages that starts to move

Knowledge religion

Knowledge religion: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21

Canetor quickly closes the lid again. Nope!

Audi points out the magical aura hiding under the blanket. The gnoll claps Canetor on the back.
You see a ghost?

Vernon moves over by the sarcophagi. "If it pushes the lid off I'm crushing it!"

Canetor jumps at Audi's clap and says turning to him "Oh, just a corpse starting to move. You know... The usual."

Audi's blue eyes light up with absolute glee!
A corpse, you say?! Starting to move, you say?!

The gnoll activates his Death's Blessing and his new undead visage grins.
Let's have a bit of a look!

Death Blessing: +2 profane bonus on saving throws against disease, mindaffecting effects, paralysis, poison, and stun.

Audi gets out his crowbar.
Look away, child! Look! Away!

He cast Guidance.
Str check, crowbar, guidance: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 1 = 8

A bit of help here? I got questions!

Ra turned at the word of corpse moving.
"A corpse? What kind?" He asked as he hefted his earth-breaker.

Canetor describes the bandage covered corpse.

Canetor you recognise the creature as a mummy. They have a despair aura that can cause anyone who fails a save to be paralysed. They have damage reduction but are vulnerable to fire. Their attacks do constitution and charisma damage as a curse. From within the two sarcophagi you can hear the sounds of scrabbling as if something is trying to get out.

Canetor relays the information he has and says "Well, this isn't going to be pleasant. I think we should kill it."

Vernon rattles his chain and nods, "It ain't immune to my chain like the last one though is it? Let's ready attacks and let them out to play, one at a time!"

Is that the plan?

I say yes.

Ra nodded his agreement, taking a shorter grip on his earth-breaker.

Rhade nods, ready to start undead when they appeared.

Navir nods. "Normal attacks are fine. Keep people with good defences up front. If you are good at shaking off poisons you should be strong here (in-game way to say high fort saves)."

"Ready to crush the thing once the lid is pushed or pulled aside!"

Emerald makes ready to open the sarcophagus.

Ready when yall are.

Due to the way you are setting this up you can all have a readied action/attack

Readied attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26

Which map are we on? Have the mummies gotten out of the sarcophagi? Or are they fighting from them.

Seeing the mummy still moving, Vernon adjusts his hold on the chain to make the thing slash it apart.
