    You are right Ajantis (though somewhat sneaky for a Paladin of the Most Radiant Heart!)

    "You're being mean to me!" Xzar says spitefully. "Stop being mean to me! You were the one who stole my things! You open the chest and die, cowardly thief!"

    OOC: hey, he is chaotic evil. I should be smiting his evilness already xD

    So much for that plan.

    Alora is going to tied a rope round the lid of the chest and go to the back of the room where she will hide in the shadows.

    OOC Is it possible to open the chest this way?

    "Oh, let's not stand here all day and argue about it. Why don't we tie a rope around the lid, everybody back off, then the person with the rope gives a tug and opens the box? We can even let Xzar pull the rope."

    OOC Fair point. We're a fairly dysfunctional party.

    Minsc waits, sword in hand to smash anything that pops out of the box.

    BG NPC Party- Putting the "fun" in Dysfunctional.

    Mighty Minsc and courageous Boo, we need to make sure that whatever comes out of that silver chest does not harm Lady Alora or Lady Imoen.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    I'll pull the rope. And whoever stands closest can have first pick of what's in the chest.

    Has everyone got missile weapons ready?
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    "Minsc and Boo are by your side shiney friend, let us take this evil down together."
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Imoen walks over to stand beside Alora. "I like shiny things as much as the next girl, but I like you, too." She readies her short sword. "This is my friend Mr. Pointy."

    And can Tiax get ready to cast Zone of Sweet Air just in case?
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Alora swoons a little when she realises Imoen is a Buffy fan.

    Since no one seems to object to the plan... you do so. As the lid rises, you get a clear glimpse inside, of a crystal box holding a ring on a pad of silk inside...
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    "Huh. Well, that was anti-climactic. Of course, I still wouldn't touch that ring for anything. I don't care how shiny it is."
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Shiny!
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Ajantis do you think that looks like an evil ring or a good one?
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Minsc trys to recall his second edition monster manual (alas he left it in the rangers guild) does it contain a ring/pillow creature?

    I think everything in this place looks evil, Lady Alora. We should proceed with extreme precaution. So far nothing good has come out of this chests.

    "Mine!" Xzar says, rushing forward to gather up the box. But as soon as he lifts it from the bottom eight darts fire from the inside bottom of the box, to pierce Xzar through the chest. He takes 29 damage.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    OOC Ring/pillow monsters didn't appear until the Fiend Folio
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    I'm thinking of all the nasty things that like to hide in gems.
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    "Boo remembers something in Edwin's riddle about a ring."
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Unless Xzar has already grabbed the ring Alora will check for traps.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Xzar gasps, swaying slightly. "Mommy?" he calls plaintively. "Mommy, I HURT."
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    OOC: It's not a monster is it? Just a trap.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Oh crap. Were they normal darts or were they poisoned?
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Gosh darn it! I was too late. I don't suppose the darts were poisonous were they?
