A drawer in the desk contains a .32 revolver and a box of bullets, a couple of false passports and a number of bundles of used 5 and ten pound notes totalling £2000 ($10,000).

Underneath the pile of receipts is a business card wedged into one of the box's corners.

In terms of time, you've probably had about 10 minutes, Kinneridge has intimated previously that he would allow up to an hour for filming.

The door opens into a small room. Two sleeping pallets, two footlockers, and a small rack for weapons and armour are the only furnishings in this sparse room. Two torch sconces are mounted to the wall. The only exit is the door you came in by.

""Lower your weapons and submit the traitor Casandalee and you will be spared.""

A look of surprise crosses Albor's face as his hands are bound behind his back and he drops his trident.

Pressing the buttons causes an electric motor to slide the case aside to give access to a set of steep stairs leading down.

The spacious room at the bottom of the steps is enclosed by 5 foot thick concrete on all sides. The smell of candles, long since burned out lingers in the air. You can see well maintained furniture including a desk, chairs and various tables, stacks pf crates and boxes, an ornate chest, a bookcase and an array of artwork on the walls.

You can walk through it.

Back to you guys

Block 1, your actions

The passage leads into the back of a storeroom full of boxes, crates and old furniture. All of them are covered in a thin layer of dust, however there is a clear path where the dust has been disturbed from the passage to what appears to be an empty mummy case in poor condition lying on its back on the floor in the rear of the room. The top is fairly free of dust and somewhat worn. It appears that the eyes of the sarcophagus function as buttons of some kind.

What would you like to do?

Aldor is hit by the full force of Eleric's spell but seems to be able to ignore a significant part of the damage.

Initiative order:

Block 1: Atajay and Penith and Senn

Block 2: Clockwork mages

Block 3: Domeric and Trevor and Munn

Senn you recognise these creatures as clockwork mages. They have damage reduction against anything except adamanatine, although they are vulnerable to electricity. They have spell resistance and dependent on which school of magic they are set to they have the ability to cast spells.

At this point the mages start to move.

Leira's first blow misses but the second fits its target.

Can anyone in 30 feet meek a Will 24 save against its frightful presence

The western half of the manufacturing hall contains immense cylinders, bins and furnaces covered with thick layers of dust. Evidence of an ancient battle remains here and there on the walls in the form of scorch marks and broken machinery. In particular, the heaped remains of a strange insectoid automaton lie in a ruined heap to the west, partially buried under fallen rocks. 3 androids are in the chamber and as they see you enter they start to move towards you and speak to you in a language you don't understand.

Penith you think these things are powerful constructs known as clockwork mages.

Knowledge arcana

I'm happy to adopt that system for some of the skills if everyone is OK with that.

There is nothing of interest in the desk, just a list of upcoming lectures. In the floor safe you find £100 in £1 notes.

Looking at the closets again at first you find a couple of crystal glasses, a port decanter and several books. Looking closer however you find a strange button, pressing it causes a section at the back of the closet to swing away revealing a passageway that is dark but large enough and wide enough to allow people to walk along.

Creeden unleashes a flurry of blows that sends Albor reeling

Eleric and Ortensia, your actions.
