No worries, dungeon crawls are rather hard on people, especially so for pbp format.
By the by, I'm starting to feel more functional so I should have a post up today

Might as well finish what we started. Who knows what we will find?
ahhh, sorry folks, learning Japanese atm and it is VERY time consuming. Not to mention all the history books I have to read >.>
Valen walks by, giving naught but a glance to the new comers, still staring at the walls and floors. Hm, yes, if they were servants of the lich, they would be dead, or, undead, as it were. Also giving the fact they haven't attacked us it seems logical to conclude they are remnants of a former group sent by our good jailer. In other words, I believe his story holds up well. As for traps, I wouldn't worry much. If the trap can be disabled, you'll find none better than I. After thoroughly searching the room he will make his way back to the two newcomers and offer a handshake to Geri.
I've got the traps covered haha. Quite well, suppose another pair of hands won't hurt. No we aren't going to level up, which is why I brought up the style strikes option.
Alex rolls his head side to side, causing loud popping sounds. Considering we've been walking around a bit without incident. Still, better safe than sorry. (42 to find traps).
Alex is a front line fighter. Just FYI.
See, nothing to worry about. Well then, what have we found?
Pretty sure I'm insane. Welp, tally ho and what not. Come along folks. To glory, or to death. He will also step through.
Perhaps, it is supposed to do that? Not in a bad way, but good? doubtful, but there IS a way to get where we are going, whether or not this is it... sure, toss it in my lad!
I suppose that would be a safe option.
could it be a... Key? I wonder.... Ok, so I think what I am about to do is either good, or really bad or just boring again with nothing happening. He then taps the crystals again, from left-top-right, or yellow, blue, orange.
He turns to the others and shrugs. I'm stumped here. So I say we go through.
He touches the last one at the top.
By the way. Are we going to level up at all thid module, or is it one of those no level one shots.
He jumps a bit when it goes out, slightly startled and waits for a few seconds. well.. I suppose it didn't kill me... Yet. Tally ho I say! He will look across at the blue one on the opposite arch. Then touch it.
hmmm. I suppose we have three options. Well four, I suppose. We go back, tails between legs and live. Note, I oppose this, go down path number one, possibly die painfully and raise as undead, or path number 2, and possibly die painfully and raise as undead. Maybe. Or, we can sit here, waiting and rotting as we try to discover something else. Though I fear we have little left to discover. Alex will bravely walk up to the archway and touch it. Attempting to see if the glowing crystals can be removed. Note he will not walk through, or withing a step of the entrance.
hm. Nothing then? What do you make of these? I don't trust his.. Riddle. Can your magical eyes see anything helpful? He gestures towards the two paths.
I suppose. Though, don't touch it yourself if you can manage that. If we live, come give me a second opinion on these...
I've never played the AP, and honestly, I'm more than half tempted to just toss out the riddle. It's probably more harmful than helpful. If its even helpful at all.
he told us to go through the arch.. But most would assume that he wanted them to do that, and that it would assuredly kill them... No... He is smarter than that, more careful. There has to be another way.... He then remembers the others. he mutters to himself. He brielfy returns to the entrance. it should be safe to come down now. Just don't wonder to close to where I am. Oh, and don't touch anything until its been thoroughly inspected. I've watched as men died horribly painful death merely from enchantments placed upon entising treasures in ancient tombs. Trust me, you'd rather the lich kill you himself. Alex will take 10 to search for any secret doors, taking 20 if he finds none. if he finds nothing he will make a knowledge arcana on both pathways. (crystal arch)
Zoren, could you try to get whatever is in that chest on the painting there out? Safely. There was an obvious trap, but who knows what's been put on the items that I can't see. He then moves down the hall, flying, continuing his work
Alex downs another vial of glowing liquid (fly) Then attempts to disable the pit trap. Are we allowed to take ten on disabling? Or 20s?
no no, just. You may need it. I'm not sure how far this pit trap reaches. And while I have utmost confidence in my abilities. I'd be foolish not to have safety precautions.
Alex nods. Zoren, can you perhaps, allow people to fly with that magic of yours as well?
Alex stops moving and lets out a shhhh. Then begins to try and find the trigger to disable it.
hmmmm. Just keep an eye out. I'd rather not have something sneak up on me while I'm occupied. Oh. Can you open or lift objects from range with your magic? Alex will make his way towards the painting as he speaks, not giving Zoren a glance as he keeps to his task.
well, being that this is the only entrance that's any different than the 100 or so other ones here. So I suppose this is our best bet. Wish me luck! Oh. And wait for my signal. +4 For traps looking for traps. If it seems safe he will hop in
While you two goof balls played around in your hole Valen has been combing the entire area.
to hell, fine. I'll get out my toys. You see him pull several vials from hidden compartments in his coat and down them, (Extracts- detect secret doors, investigative mind, heightened awareness.) He will then comb the entire hill area searching for other doors.
Trying to remember any other information on the lich and his rumoured habits/ways. re-roll with investigative mind
Trying to figure out how this place is built, whyz and the most likely path they should take.
just barely. hooo boy.
(if Illusion) Thats odd...
+4 to find traps. well well, what have we here? Don't open that door Kor unless you want the ceiling collapsing on us. Let me do what I do. Valen makes his way past the group. and looks at it.
Valen will rest the tip of his cane on the Trox's left shoulder. Easy now, save it for the things that will be trying to kill us. I know we aren't particularly subtle, but lets not give away our position to everything withing 100 miles!
Ah yes Rok, perhaps one day we could have a friendly spare? Or, that is what I had considered. However, I feel that may not be wise unless I am 100% sure I can defeat you. As it stands now... I am far less. as they walk Also, the hills have been dug out many times. I wonder why?
That... need of yours, it could pose a problem at a later time in this journey. Tell me, do you merely require battle? or must you make paste of everything that you come across? Hmmmm, I wonder if anything I can brew up would stem that urge of his...
And... they seem to be MOVING. Whatever they are, as curious as I am. It may be best to avoid them....
I wasted a 20... did anyone else notice the obelisks themselves were made of flesh? I wonder what purpose that serves... Rather morbid but... Interesting.
Yes, I picked up some... sign language, during some of my travels. Valen joins the others as he pulls over his great coat/cloak.
