    Kivan, stop being a wretch and do something useful. Take the scepter and open the door---Alora seems to think it is the key.

    Viconia smirks at Kivan. "Why Kivan, is that little thing for me?" she asks. "I didn't know you cared."

    "Why don't you do it? You seem to just be standing around like me."
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    DM: Yeah, Kivan's been STANDING for a good long time now.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    I'm standing well back. I think we should rest until Aerie or Viconia can come up with a summons spell.

    "Yes, just like you. Except I'm covered in wounds and I'm having trouble breathing at the moment. So, be something other than a useless sack of meat and open a door. Perhaps the drow might reward your bravery with something other than the contempt women the plane over give you. Just a thought"

    Afraid he might actually be attracted to the drow, Kivan tries hard to act the opposite, if only to try to convince himself.

    "Care for you? You are nothing but 'ibblith' to me."

    "I only h-had one Summoning Spell memorized," Aerie says.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Viconia's eyes drift slowly down Kivan's body, and she just smiles.

    "You're wounded? Hah! The great Shar-Teel complaining of a few paper cuts? Here, drink this healing potion Alora gave me, I have no use for it. Then go open the door afterward."

    *Tosses potion at Shar-Teel*

    Sighing yet again, Shar-Teel takes the scepter from wherever she had it and approaches the door. Meaning to place the silver end in the door first, Shar-Teel suddenly realizes who gave her that suggestion. Horrified with herself, she turns the scepter over and inserts the golden end in.

    OOC: Alas, poor Shar-Teel---so very, very dead now.

    Get a room the pair of you! Alora picks up the scepter marches down to the door and puts the silver end in.
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    @Permidion_stark Beat ya to it, haha.

    Shar-Teel vanishes when she touches the silver ball to the doors. When Alora picks up the scepter, the doors swing silently open.

    @katastrophe

    Damn. Well I'm not going to try to wrestle it off a big girl like you. Instead I'm running in the other direction.
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    @LadyRhian uh, I used the golden end.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Shar-Teel? Did you turn invisble? asks Alora hopefully.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Whups, sorry. reversed the ends. Same result.

    "Ahh well, can't expect too much of a person with a Wisdom score of 7."

    @LadyRhian

    When the doors swing open I will attempt to hid in the shadows.

    I might not be very bright but at least I don't let my pecker do the thinking.

    Beyond the mithril doors, you see...

    http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/ToH_Gallery/ToHGraphic30.jpg

    This room, just like the foyer, has a silvered ceiling, so it is bright. The walls are gold-inlaid ivory. The floor is polished (common) agate. In each corner is a 9' tall statue of black iron, depicting a hulking male figure. Each bears a weapon poised to strike. To the northeast, a saw-toothed two handed sword, to the northwest, a huge spiked mace. To the southeast, a wickedly spiked morningstar, and to the southwest, a voulge (polearm). Each has a fearsome expression on its face.

    Before you is a massive bronze urn, a granite sarcophagus and two iron chests. The urn is partially stoppered with a cork and a cracked golden seal. Smoke issues from the cracks.

    I was talking about Shar-Teel.

    OOC. Wow, has she got 7 wisdom too. Boy we both got some lousy rolls.

    Alora looks at the statues and the end of the poem goes through her head:

    The iron men of visage grim do more than
    meets the viewer's eye.
    You've left and left and found my Tomb
    and now your soul will die.

    @LadyRhian

    Does the smoke appear to be normal smoke from a fire?
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    "I think we should dismantle those statues, in case they animate."
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    Finding herself at the entrance of the dungeon, completely nude, Shar-Teel has a fit. After much stomping and punching of walls, she calms down long enough to decide to try and meet up with the others. Perhaps the thought of stumbling across a thoroughly deceased Kivan spurs her to action, who knows. Thus begins a mini-adventure in and of itself, strife with no peril and the lurid looting of dead party members. And plenty of nudity (for those so inclined).

    @Permidion_Stark You can't tell. It certainly LOOKS like normal smoke.
