    While Alora searches in the pots Arkanis pokes the fungus with his new magic sword.

    "I shouldn't do that Arkanis," calls Alora when she sees what the dwarf is doing. "It might have some nasty spores in it."

    The cave regularizes into a corridor, and stairs leading up 20' to a landing. At the landing, the corridor makes a sharp turn to the right (east) and heads up another set of stairs.

    As you tread on the landing...

    Tiax gets hit by a giant axe blade that swings down from the ceiling.

    Minion, roll 1d10 for Tiax damage
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Yeowch! Tiax is cleaved by the blade. He is at -4 hit points and dropping fast. Edwin manages to dodge the blade, since he is behind Tiax.

    Aerie will drop to Tiax's side and administer emergency CLW! At the same time she shouts: "Alora! Trap!"
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    "Well anyone can see it's a trap now!" says Alora giving Aerie the double teapot.

    Minion, roll 1d8 for Cure Light Wounds healing
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Tiax is healed back up to 3 hit points. He gasps as he comes back to consciousness.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    "Tiax, you will get yourself killed. You should have been looking for traps," says Alora to deflect the fact that she wasn't looking for traps either.

    "I think we should finish exploring downstairs before we go back upstairs."

    Alora will head back to where the corridor split and then head south.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    The southern corridor bends gently south and east and comes out into a huge cave. The cave is filled with Stalagmites and Stalactites that glow blue. Some of them have grown together into huge columns. Some of the columns grow so close together that they practically form a wall from floor to ceiling. It is almost impossible to move through the cave. If you try, you will have to pick your way carefully.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    "I don't like stalagmites and stalactites," says Alora who has had bad experiences with them in the past. "Maybe we should just go back upstairs?"
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    "The question is... Is there anything past them?" Edwin asked musingly.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    "I suppose I could go and look," says Alora unenthusiastically.

    Because Edwin seems to think it is a good idea (and because Alora has very low Wisdom) she will sttempt to find a path through the cave, searching for traps as she goes.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Alora finds it hard going through the middle of the cave, and ends up sticking close to the wall. Then, she sees the floor... move. Well, something is moving, but she can't see what...
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Alora is scared. She hurries back to the others: "There's no way through, we'll have to go the other way," she lies.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay. Back to the stairs, then?
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    OOC: That's what our not-so-intrepid leader wants to do but maybe we should wait and see if anyone is determined to go through the cave?
  • lolienlolien Member, Moderator, Translator (NDA) Posts: 3,108
    "Hmmm, i should look into this cave myself too, maybe you missed something." Says Arkanis as he sees the disturbed Alora returning. He then goes to explore the cave too.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    The cave is blocked in several places, so it's easier to sidle around the edges. But archness sees the floor- or something on the floor, moving.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Alora will follow Arkanis. She doesn't like the idea of him confronting whatever it is on his own.
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    Minsc follows the Little Lady. Her security is his responsibility.
  • lolienlolien Member, Moderator, Translator (NDA) Posts: 3,108
    "Something is moving on the floor!" Yells back the dwarf to the others. "I can't see yet what it is, have to get closer, but prepare for anything!" Arkanis moves closer to the moving floor to examine it.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Whatever is on the floor moves away from Arkanis as he moves towards it, until there is nowhere left to go. Then, they begin leaping. The things are grayish bugs, almost the same color as the floor. The leap over the heads of the party.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    So long as the bugs aren't attacking and aren't going to land on her head Alora will do her best to get out of the way and let them past.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay. The bugs flee, leaving the party alone. You continue making your circuit of the room, and in a nice tucked into the northern wall, you find a second silver dragon statue.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    "I found another statue. It's a good job I decided to come this way after all," says Alora, conveniently forgetting that she wanted to go in completely the other direction.

    OOC: Assuming there is no other way out I guess we will head back the way we came and head back up the stairs, making sure that the trap is disarmed this time.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay, you head back up the stairs, avoiding the trap. After 10', the corridor becomes stairs leading east, 20' up, you come to a closed door.
  • Permidion_StarkPermidion_Stark Member Posts: 4,861
    Alora will listen and check for traps before opening it.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    She doesn't hear anything, and it is not locked or trapped. She opens the door into a 30' by 30' room. In the center of the room are three human-like reptiles with short tails, long legs and a spiny comb on their heads and arms. You recognize them. They are troglodytes. They block your way out (a door in the middle of the north wall).
