PFS: Tomb of the Iron Medusa (Inactive)

Game Master drbuzzard

I think now we should wait for Duhwoo. Probably SOP is to have Duhwoo head in first (blinking) with me covering him; he can clear the area of immediate threats and then we can call in the big brains. I, however, don't really want to speak for him.

man i really didnt wanna waste 5 mins cutting the door down.. It appears i should have waited to use my true seeing.. sigh.. I was gonna blast it open, or dem door through.. But w/e ill just take of the minutes..

Following others in.. Perc.: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (3) + 21 = 24 Detect Magic, True Seeing "The leader of the Voxus Clan(Mocking Medussa) intials was P. Adella.. I would venture this is the tomb for Voxus.. They were the nautical branch of the family.. Torn apart due to a fued between twin brothers Vespacio and Vincenzo.."

Vuvu heads in as well, whip at the ready. He stands between Woo and the squishes.

Init cause I am sure it is coming 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

Just in case

Init: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24

OK, I'll just assume everyone went in. You going to search the place? Also, need will saves from all.

Yea, I am sure we did. And we will definitely search it, I figured there might be an attackupon walking in. A construct Coffin or something that I can't hurt.

1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 12 + 2 = 20 Will uh oh that is not good. +4 if it is sonic or Bardic or language based

Also I forgot to select which Ioun Stone I have in my Wayfinder. I will have the Blue for the bonus of Blind Fighting, in case I have to close my eyes to fight a medusa

1d20 + 17 ⇒ (11) + 17 = 28 Perception

I rolled a 24 Perc.

Will: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18 +2 vs ench

I swear these online dice are trying to kill me.. Seems like I roll single digits everytime lol..

Will: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (5) + 14 = 19 (+2 vs enchant., +1 vs fear)

Perception: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (3) + 25 = 28

.
(I didn't get to come home for lunch today -- sorry! 15 yards for delay-of-game! I also won't be able to come home for lunch tomorrow...)

Duhwoo goes in ready for anything!

Duhwoo's Will save: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

and if that makes the save, he'll look around carefully...

Duhwoo's Perception check: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (19) + 19 = 38

"Ah sure hope there ain't 27 zombie champeens in here..."

Muahahahahahaha.

Ahem.
Actually everyone makes the save. Meh.

In your searching you find 500 GP and a rusty old falcata. Do you want to open the centrally located sarcophagus?

Detect magic on the sarcophohus

"Ah know a guy who's inta falcatas -- I reckon I'll bring this to Lord Vars, in case he finds it int'restin'..."

Duhwoo examines the central coffin carefully...any signs of recent activity?

Duhwoo's Survival check: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 16 + 2 = 24 (been forgetting the Heroism, which has nearly 5 hours on it...)

Also, does the central coffin have a legible inscription or name on it?

There appears to be no traps on the sarcophagus, and there are no legible inscriptions.

.
Duhwoo will carefully (taking 10) attempt to open the central sarcophagus; without assistance, his check would be 16. Taking 10, both Lithuan and Venture Captain Zuella can aid, bringing the check to 20...

You have no trouble removing the lid of the sarcophagus. Inside there is a mummified corpse.

Everyone give me a fortitude save.

Duhwoo's Fortitude save: 1d20 + 17 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 17 + 2 = 37

"Dang! This feller is a might ripe!"

Duhwoo will cast Detect Magic, and examine the contents of the sarcophagus: Duhwoo's Perception check: 1d20 + 19 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 19 + 2 = 27

"Dam the nastiness!"

Fort: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20

Fort: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (13) + 16 = 29

.
(note that we all have Heroism going, so add +2 to the two Fort save rolls above -- and Vuvu should add +2 to his save...)

Mine is already rolled in.

I did :)

1d20 + 10 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 10 + 2 = 24

OK, only Avoreal has an issue then.

In one minute Avoreal takes :
strength damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2
charisma damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1

and you are exhausted.

nasty bug this, 1 minute onset, and 2 stat damage, nasty cure too

Im just gonna stay outa place until theres something to kill.. Any idea of what I just contracted? Knowledge Roll? And yes I carry status removal potions of all types.. Learned early in my career you don't always have a cleric.. Hardly do you in fact..

Odd, I can't find any rule about identifying disease. I'll wing it.

Given the nature of this affliction, give me a knowledge arcana.

Take 10 for 29

It appears to be Crypt Fever. Nasty disease as you recall, with fast onset, fairly hard to resist, and requires a remove curse within a minute of the remove disease.

Do we know the frequency?

1/day

While they are pondering Vuvu downs an Anti-plague and looks int he sarcophagus closer

Sarcophagus just has the ancient body it in, which is apparently inert.

Well, then I guess we move on to the next one. The north.

This building is of gray basalt, and unlike its sister buildings is plain and functional in design. Chiseled above the entry arch is the phrase, “The Living Make Their Plans; the Dead Watch, Amused.”

Set in the floors at the center of the building is a carving of a cross eyed medusa face. It's about 10' across.

Detect magic on the carbon and in the room from outside the door

carbon?

The carving of the medusa radiates strong conjuration magic. The rest of the room is empty, and does not radiate any magical signature.

Master Zuella, please cast this scroll of Invigorate on Mistress Starseeker.

Stupid autocorrect. Carving I meant

Vuvu takes the scroll and casts it. Not sure if that is on my list 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (16) + 25 = 41

The. He tries spell craft from where he is st 1d20 + 23 ⇒ (17) + 23 = 40

I kinda assumed some spellcraft or you wouldn't have seen what school.

If you want to identify an extant spell, you need knowledge arcana.

Ok take 10 for 29

I love lore master!!

Looks to you like a teleportation circle.

Ok so we need a remove disease first and then a remove curse? How bout drink an anti-plague and use my shirt reroll? Will a Break Enchantment work? It works on curses..

So far the only effect is the strength only. The exhaustion is negated for the next 10 min, fwiw.

It looks like we have some kind of teleportation circle. Whether it brings something in or takes something out I do not know.

"Mebbe this is where we 'Turn Face to Floor', right b'fore a stony door..."

"No Duhwoo you already did that."

In fact you were the one to figure that out remember?

"But p'raps it's a recurrin' theme -- ya do it to git in to this area, an' then again to git out...

I'm jus' sayin' -- mebbe that's how it works, mebbe it ain't..."

Crypt fever
Type curse, disease, contact or inhaled; Save Fortitude DC xx Onset 1 minute; frequency 1/day
Effect 1d6 Str damage, 1d6 Cha damage, and victim
is exhausted; Cure crypt fever can only be cured by successfully casting remove curse and remove disease within 1 minute of each other.

looks to me like it is cure disease and remove curse
