    Nothing is in the natron. As for the liquids, you can't tell what they are or what they were for? Washing the mummy? Giant vats of beer for parties? You simply have no clue.

    If Alora doesn't find anything under the natron she is going to give the vats of liquid a stir (unless someone with more sense has a better idea)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    The vats would probably be much too heavy to lift, given how full they are and their contents.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Alora is very dextrous. She will use the pole to try to fish out the gold thing in vat number 2.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    As soon as you stick the pole into the liquid, it begins to sizzle and the liquid to bubble. When you pull out the pole to check on it, the polish on the pole is gone, and the wood is starting to be eaten away. Whatever is in this vat, it's acidic.

    Alora will put the pole into vat 3 to see if it neutralises the acid.

    Oh, ew! Acid bad. Also, even if we could spill that, we probably don't want to, since it'd dissolve the floor.

    Imoen will start looking for other doors out of this weird room.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    We could use the clay pots to get the acid out. Not sure where we would put it though. Shall I continue using the wooden pole to try to get the gold thing?
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    While Imoen looks for secret doors I'm going to keep attempting to get the gold thing out of the acid bath.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    If my fishing with a 10ft pole isn't working, are there enough empty clay pots that I could start filling them with acid to empty the vat ... at least so we can see what is at the bottom.

    Tiaxina believes we should smash the vats, perhaps she should launch a bullet from her sling. Her mighty strength should manage it... what do you think companions?

  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    That will cover the floor with acid and we won't be able to walk on it.

    When Imoen tries to dip the pole into the third vat, she realizes that this liquid is kind of... not so liquid-y. In fact, it's a creature. A gigantic gray pseudopod smacks her across the face., burning her skin. Imoen takes 14 points of damage.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    I think it was me that got slapped. Imoen is looking for traps.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    We could, but without knowing what it is and how it reacts together, we could poison ourselves on fumes.

    Alora runs away from the grey monster in the vat.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    I'm hurt! I want a paladin to heal me!

    Xan, spell up. Paladins defend the girls, Sarevok Minsc tear this thing to pieces. Alora come here child, let Tiaxina care for you.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    The thing... oozes out of the vat after you. It's gray ooze, but this must be the great-granddaddy of all gray oozes everywhere. The Ur-Gray ooze. It's so huge, your mind just sort of goes blank. It's about 15' around.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Imoen gives Tiaxina a grin. "I'm okay, thanks. Alora could use a little help, though." She then pulls and readies her bow in case the beastie wants to exit its tank and play.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Should we try to kill the grey glup monster. I think it might be a really big grey ooze.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    It does, it does want to play! Imoen shoots at it with her short bow and arrows. OOC, I'm imagining she's against the wall somewhere since she was looking for alternate exits.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    You can hit gray ooze with weapons. Alora runs out of range of its pseudopod and then starts showering it with sling bullets.

  • IchigoRXCIchigoRXC Member Posts: 1,001
    OOC: Sorry I meant Alora, just as Rhian probably did as well. Rhian said Imoen took the damage so I said Imoen too :)
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Time for our brave boys to charge in and start whacking it.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Minsc don't worry about going for the eyes, just hit it!
  • IchigoRXCIchigoRXC Member Posts: 1,001
    *Tiaxina casts cure light wounds on Alora*
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Thank you Tiaxiana. You are off my list. Now whack the pudding!
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    OOC "Whack the pudding!" may be my favorite phrase of the day.
