    So Mazzy, will we wait here until our friendly giant awake? If so then we should prepare. A sleep spell is an odd trap unless someone takes advantage of it. If not, then how will we carry Minsc? Aerie, Edwin, do either of you know the flying disc cantrip?

    Mazzy sighs.

    "It pains me to wait while others are in danger, but it seems Arvoreen has willed that we remain here for a time. Be prepared minstrel, we must remain on guard in case of attack at all times, the legions of darkness hold sway here and wait for but the smallest chance to take advantage."

    Montaron has found a secret door, to the east. (Since his player hasn't posted, I am doing it for him.) "What have we here?" he says cynically. "Bald one, give me a boost for a moment..." he says, staring at the sconces.

    Montaron will examine the secret door for traps before looking for the opening mechanism....because he's practical, rather than being suicidal.

    Montaron drags one of the chairs over by the sconce holders and examines them, being careful not to awaken sleeping ugly.

    Dragging a chair through the fire? (This is in the treasure chest room.)

    OOC: Ah, I must have missed that bit.

    Montaron will ask Sarevok to help him up to the level of the sconces, "Help me up, thar be somethin' ta see near those torch holders."

    "Oi, Mazzy! there's a button under these!" Montaron calls as he examines the sconces. "What do you think we should do?"
  • lockmundlockmund Member Posts: 354
    "Lets move Minsc to this side of the fire first. In fact, those that push the button should take a deep breath in case there is more sleep gas..." Garrick notice Mazzy's gaze and continues "or whatever you think is appropriate miss Fentan."

    Mazzy smirks at Garrick.

    "No need for honorifics, you may address me as Mazzy. We are all friends here after all."
    She eyes Edwin.
    "Or so we assume."

    Mazzy walks over to look up at Montaron and the sconces. She ponders the Idea of it being a trap.

    "I do not think someone would go through such trouble to hide a trap, but this is a strange place. Everyone prepare for the worst before Montaron presses this button."

    She wait for everyone to prepare spells and take up arms.

    "Garrick, if you and Ajantis will assist me. We can drag Minsc body to the center of the room, where he should be safe. After we do this Montaron will push the button."

    Imoen will hide,as her offensive capabilities are rather lacking.
  • lockmundlockmund Member Posts: 354
    Garrick moan a little, but jump through the fire again and grab the left arm.

    Skie will get into a strategic position to snipe with her bow.

    Sarevok grabs ahold of Minsc with one hand and lifts him up and over his shoulder... "where do you want him" he says to the others...
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay... Everyone gets into position and Montaron pushes the button. It's stiff, and he realizes it won't stay pressed unless something is placed on top of it to hold it down. But when it is pressed, the wall at the back of the 10' by 20' wide room swings open, revealing a 40' long by 20' wide room in the back, with a pair of double doors to the east, which are closed.

    Imoen grabs the torch from the corpse and offers it to Montaron, "Try this."
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,642
    "I say we assign Montaron the super special job of holding that button. Would you like that Monty? Auntie Skie thinks you're super special and should have this super important job. Well Monty? Huh? What do you say?" Skie asks Montaron in an annoyingly cheerful tone, as if talking to a child.

    Skie then whispers to Mazzy, "if Montaron doesn't agree to it, I say we take the rodent from the unconscious barbarian and glue it to the switch to hold it down..."

    @awong124 Wouldn't be heavy enough.
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    @LadyRhian Is there anything heavy enough around we can use?

    Anyway. I'll go through the fire to help drag Minsc.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Maybe the... other torch? ;)

    Garrick is a bit envious. "I must have losened him for you."
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Mazzy smirks at Skie's suggestion.

    "Jam something to hold the button and let us look to these new doors. Saervok perhaps you can carry Minsc a bit further? At least until he awakens."
  • Fighting_FerretFighting_Ferret Member Posts: 229
    Um, I grabbed the other torch a couple of posts back and offered it to Montaron... just saying...
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Fighting_Ferret Yes, you did. Just like tabletop, people don't always pay attention. :)

    @LadyRhian This is all too true...

    It is a rather mundane tactic compared to using Boo (whom, I also technically have, as I removed him from the slumbering Minsc earlier, as part of my offer to help move Minsc...my strength being a 9 and all... Minsc will thank me, and Boo will perhaps let me handle him as I saved him from this gruesome fate).

    I must be too good at remaining hidden...

    Oh well I believe we have a new door to explore?
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    OOC hmmm.. what? I hit him! What... aren't we being attacked? ;)

    Sarevok agrees to carry Minsc as far as the party wants... "we could use this Ranger to hold the switch he certainly weighs enough..." Sarevok laughs for a moment and then stares back at the group with an expressionless face.

    Sarevok picks up Minsc's limp arm and drops it while watching it dangle...

    There's any number of heavy things on the non-fire side to hold down the button. Aerie looks for something to toss over for the others to jam into the mechanism.
