Tericus waits to see what happens to Jandar. If nothing does, he'll follow him
Nonam d20=4 Thursday December 9th, 2004 1:43:33 PM
Nonam leaves the problem with Fai'fasal to the others, and he flies over to the prismatic wall. Since it won't hurt him, he pops through to the other side to see if there's anything notable about the wall.
[some sort of check= 4+ appropraite modifiers]

Jus begins searching with the others. (ignore the d100. Spot = 25 after modifiers. Search = 22 after modifiers).
Onrad Monday December 13th, 2004 12:18:34 PM
Onrad, hearing Gareth's words, runs over to Fais' side and stays there for the moment putting his hand lightly on his shoulder for support.
"Times a wastin folks. We need through that wall."
DM kent Monday December 13th, 2004 4:44:04 PM
Walking slowly Jandar walks up to Nonam's prismatic wall and hesitates before walking into it knowing what might happen.
Eventually, through the use of various spells, abilities, instruments, and hard effort seven possible secret doors have been located (see map). While three are definitely not in the direction in which Max suggests, the other three are nearly side by side in the rear wall right of the dais. The last seems to be under the central throne.
Gareth Monday December 13th, 2004 11:06:36 PM
Seeing where everyone points, the warrior nods. "Let's try the one under the throne first. Who is best at opening secret doors? I know I'm no good at it."
Tericus Tuesday December 14th, 2004 12:36:52 AM
"Im not." Tericus tells Gareth. "Maybe Jus can."
Onrad Tuesday December 14th, 2004 11:03:40 AM
Onrad prepares to possibly jump in the hole when it opens. He stretches a bit and comments, "Anyone notice how you can get used to something as evil as this place? It's not bothering me so much anymore... and THAT bothers me. I should be totally grossed out."

First Symon takes a round to look THROUGH each door (X-Ray vision).
Assuming no enemy or danger is revealed, Symon does his best to open all the secret doors. [Disable Device checks: 31, 34, 41. Untrained Open Lock checks: 8, 25, 14]
Then he casts anther Prying Eyes and has the eyes search down all the openings, two per door. One per door is to come back after one minute and report. The other eye per door is to come back after seeing the enemy. [Armor Spell Fail Check 54]

Jandar Tuesday December 14th, 2004 3:38:45 PM
Jandar says,"I would imagine that Gareth and I can move the throne if necessary. But first, Tericus, let's make sure everyone is healed up to full while these guys get these doors open, if that's cool with you."
Jandar will cast whatever cure spells needed to heal everyone.(Please let me know how much each is down, so we don't waste spells.)
Jus Tuesday December 14th, 2004 9:18:00 PM
Jus drops a ring as it gives him a strange negative buzz. "This appears to be useless," Jus says with a strange amusement.
"Well, how about we...," Jus catches himself as a voice runs though his head. With a mix of happiness and resignation, Jus concentrates hard and thinks deeply to the dragon he had hoped would -- despite all odds -- be his friend.
Congrads, Keiran, Jus thinks. He then adds the afterthought, Be careful.
Not quite in the moment, distracted by this unpleasant reunion, Jus stands silently and watches the others attempt to open the doors.

"I do not have the necessary skill. We could check to see if they are unlocked. They might not have had time to really set them."
When Addinein sees Symon stepping up to the door, Addinein will get our of his way.
He then readies his bow, should defense be needed.
When Addinein hears Onrad's comments about evil, Addinein wonders what evil feels like. He's getting an idea of it, but it's still hard to try to describe to his family back with the matron.

Symon sees nothing at all looking through/under the throne except dakness below, other than it just seems to be a tunnel located at the bottom of eight steps.
The three southern ddors all lead into darkened passaages.
The northern three side by side doors resist all attempts to see through them.
The throne doesn't appear to be latched in any way and it seems as though it just may tilt backwards for access.
The middle of the southern doors seems to be locked and have some sort of device on it.
All three of the northern doors appear to have some sort of magical protection on them.
The throne tilts easily and the prying eyes doesn't make it back to report anything.
The southern doors open easily enough and the middle door apparently had a gas trap on it that was disarmed the eyes all report small rooms all apparently empty.
At the three doors in the back wall Symon goes to work on the devices on doors one and two only to hear what seem to be enormously loud clicks.
Just after the first click a large cloud of purplish smoke fills the area from the doors to the throne ALL fortitude DC 23 or lose 4 points of constitution.
At the secon click Symon feels something seep into his mind. will save DC 20 or lose all intelligence except 1 point Feeblemind. -4 on save for sorcerers/wizards or arcane spell casters. Spell resistance 27. make save or spell resistance negates effects.
Gareth d20+16=32 Wednesday December 15th, 2004 6:46:16 AM
The warrior chokes a bit on the noxious fumes but fights off any ill effects (DC 32). He decides to go ahead and lift the throne thinking it can't be too hard as drow who are much weaker than he can do it. "Symon, send some of your eyes down there...".
Tericus d20+14=17 d20+14=30 Wednesday December 15th, 2004 11:52:40 AM
The smoke overcomes Tericus for a moment, but he's able to fight off its effects (rolled 17, hero pt reroll of 30). Once the smoke clears, he asks, "Which way are we going?"

[OOC: Kent, the Prying Eyes takes a minute to cast. If I did get to cast two of them, then that's 20 rounds, not 2, that they took to cast. Or maybe Symon didn't get to cast them?]
Symon shrugs off the purplish smoke (Fort Save 26) and hardly notices the Feeblemind (Will Save 35, a natural 20).
He tells Gareth, "Two eyes went into the passage under the throne and did not come back."
Symon continues to look for traps and disable them. He'll also unlock locks. Search checks 65, 60, 53. Disable Device checks 27, 34, 42. Open Lock checks 12, 12, 26.

Onrad once again, barely prevents the draining. He mumbles to no one in particular, "I can only keep this up for so long. One of these is gonna get me."
"The doors with the traps is probably the way to go."
He goes total defense and prepares for a door to open.

Jus gags and coughs as the purple smoke fills the room. He's unable to find a clear patch of clear air. Just when he thinks he's going to lose everything in his stomach, he manages to breath clearly (Made save due to the Bless spell)
Doubled over, Jus spits globs of phlegm, clearing his throat of the bile induced by the poison.

[I will fill in when Kent can't post this time. I'm winging this folks in such a way that it doesn't hurt Kent's plans... best I can.]
From the corner to the right of the raised dais, there comes a timid voice.
"Help me...."
"Help me die...."
"Pleeeassee...."
DM kent d20+10=27 Friday December 17th, 2004 6:07:51 PM
Fai'fasal manages to choke of the smoke but does seem a bit green around the gills, so to speak. There is a stair well leading down from under the throne and three side by side 4ft wide corridors leading back towards where Max informed Gareth. Then from out of nowhere you hear a female's voice rip out of Fai'fasal's mouth.
"Kill them all they are back there I must Kill them all!!!"
Gareth Saturday December 18th, 2004 9:56:23 AM
Before the warrior goes down the stairs he goes over to the side of the dais and observes the timid voice, sighing heavily at Fai'Fasal's new problem. Seeing whoever it is he asks "Can you tell us where they are?".
Jandar Monday December 20th, 2004 12:04:32 AM
Jandar breaks from his fever against the liches when he hears the voice, and he sprints to where he hears it, preparing to cast a healing spell. He turns his head slightly to frown at Gareth when the warrior asks a question but makes no move to try to help the person.

Symon Dracozyl (Heroism, Endure Elements, Extended Arcane Sight, True Seeing, Detect Evil) Monday December 20th, 2004 4:47:22 PM
Symon moves over to the Voice that asks for death. He activates his Detect Evil Tattoo. If he does not detect evil, he says, "Hello? Who is over there? Can you tell us where those liches went?" If it is evil, he offers it a quick death if it will tell where the liches went.
When he hears the male elf speak in a female voice, he murmurs "How curious!" but so long as the drow is not evil, Symon seems glad to follow his (her?) lead.

{round 22}
Symon finds nothing where the mysterious voice seemed to come from and Fai'fasal appears no more evil than any normal drow. Dazed, confused, angry, possessed perhaps, but not necessarily evil.
The three doors and the throne entry await.
Onrad d20+16=24 Monday December 20th, 2004 9:50:55 PM
"Careful guys, might be a trap." He stays focused over the open hole. Peering down intently, he tries to spot something below.
[Spot check of 24]
Gareth Monday December 20th, 2004 9:56:01 PM
The warrior nods to Jandar to do his thing. "We will help you live, not die. We will kill the liches if you can help us get to them before they have time to regenerate...". He doesn't wait long for an explaination. If none comes he goes under the throne and carries on.

"This is my specialty!" declares Symon. He steps down into the hole. He casts Extended Alter Self (Halfling), Darkness and True Seeing.
[OOC: Note that *anyone* can see in this "Darkness." In 3.5, magical "Darkness" is not dark at all! It is more like illuminated dimness, like torchlight, from 20 ft to 40 ft away from the torch. It does provide concealment and the opportunity to hide. True Seeing negates the concealment.]
Symon begins moving down the corridor, using his Robe of Eyes, Arcane Sight, and True Seeing to sense and perceive his surroundings. He is moving slowly as he hides in shadows and searches as he goes. He is peering through his lens of searching as he looks.

DM kent Tuesday December 21st, 2004 10:33:59 PM
Jandar does not see anyone where the voice came from.
Symon takes about four stairs down when he feels something soft and wispy brush his cheek and hand. When he reaches for it nothing is there, nor does he hear anything. The steps are 3 ft wide, very steep and have rises that are nearly 12 inches and very difficult for him to maneuver in his halfling form Dex roll DC 22.

Symon nimbly hops down, step by step. (Dex check 23! Woo hoo! Boy, am I lucky!) So intent is he on moving silently, hiding, and searching all at the same time as hopping down staurs, that he doesn't even notice the spiderwebs, brushing them away without even looking. (see prev post for checks) If things get tough, he'll climb (checks 23, 18, 23).
He keeps looking for clues, tricks, traps, and secrets!

Symon keeps making his way down and gets to the 7th step which he realizes is pressure plate step. (to avoid this step will entail swinging out 12 inches and dropping 24 to the 8th step.) Beyond he can see that there are roughly 30 more steps which end in a roughly hewn pit-like area. the part of the pit are that he can see is empty and clear, however there is a sickly green luminescence coming from somewhere out of his sight range. he also notices that while not thick there are definitely a few more web stands here than were at the top, where he started.

He's only six steps down, so Symon pokes his head up and casts an extended Message spell so that he can explore and whisper reports without coming back.
Still hiding (Hide check 56), Symon reaches down and disables the trap (Disable Device check 36). He continues to climb carefully down the stairs (Climb 39), searching as he goes (Search check 56), and looking for creatures, especially in the webs (Spot check 35).
He whispers everything he sees.

He hops down into the hole.
"I hate this place! Have I said that yet?"
Symon Wednesday December 29th, 2004 9:08:51 PM
Catching the gist of what Onrad is saying, Symon grins and whispers a message back to him: "Ha! At the first sign of trouble, I'm teleporting out of here! If you're in reach, I'll grab ya ... if not, well, it's your skin, friend!"
"Now stop with the distractions, already! I have some puzzles to solve here!"
DM Kent Thursday December 30th, 2004 2:31:33 PM
Symon continues downward and eventually makes it to the bootom of the stair and to the floor of the pit. It is very dark down here and is barely lit with periodic greem luminescent mos or lichen. There is quite a bit of litter on the floor of the pit although it is spread out and not all in one place. Ocassionally a small pile is able to be seen. The outside limits of the pit are unable to be seen as the pit extends for more than eighty feet.
Onrad starts down the stairs easily managing the 12 inch rises. Onrad make spot check DC22.

Symon uses his Robe of eyes to try to see farther (darkvision and see invis to 120 ft).
He takes a look at the piles (search checks 56 and 59, for traps and other stuff).
He continues to creep forward, under the cover first of any shadows that naturally folllow from the glowing moss, and then as needed in the cover of his own Darkness (Hide 62, Move Silent 33).
Symon also tries to keep his eyes open (Spot 30) as he whispers back to the group where he is and what he sees.

Onrad manages to not jostle Symon's trap work on the sixth step and makes it down to the pit in no time at all.
Tericus starts down after Onrad and when he reaches the sixth step he needs to make a Reflex roll DC 22.
Symon checks out the piles and finds that each pile is the desicated and shriveled remains of some humanoid surounded by a mass of cob web, armor, weapons, etc. One of the piles tumbles over as he inspects it making a rattling clatter that seems to echo through the area.
After that everything seems to be overly quiet and then Symon can just make out the sound of something scraping against something else, and then all is quiet once again.

He uses his Search ability to look for a secret door or other exit (Search 63!)
He coneinues to hide and move silently. If he finds nothing, he heads back out, moving silently (25), hiding (45), and climbing carefully (34).
DM kent d20+30=48 Monday January 3rd, 2005 8:10:42 PM
Gareth finds nothing in his search for the voice and then another voice pops into his head. Umm Boss, I don't think Lisseth is gonna wait any more, Faifasal is heading toward the doors.
Onrad turns and makes his way up and catches Tericus just as he is about to step over the trapped step together the turn and return to the throne room.
Symon continues searching and realizes that there is absolutely no way out when he finds himself suddenly swamped with some sticky substance that holds him pinned to the floor unable to move. Escape artist DC 34 or strength DC 28. Seconds later he sees a sight he wishes he had never seen. Dangling now but eight feet above him is the most monsterous spider he has ever seen in his enitre life. It is nearly 40 feet long and wide and about 10 feet high. It is black and grey with patches of the glowing moss covering small sections of its body. There are two nearly 18 inch green fangs protruding from its gaping mouth. Both of which are dripping with a luminescent green slime.
Gareth Monday January 3rd, 2005 8:32:47 PM
Not knowing Symon's plight, the warrior moves to join Lisseth - er - Fai'Fasal. "Look Lisseth, I know you want these things bad but you won't get very many of them if you rush him into battle. Be smart about this, OK?". He moves up with the drow letting him open the door since he is not so good at that sort of thing.

Symon tries to wriggle free but feels the webs entangling him (Rolled a 31).
If he has a hero point (the issue was not resolved at PC creation), then he uses it, and fails the reroll.
If he can Teleport while stuck, he will teleport back up to the others (Teleport Failure Roll is a 42%, no prob).
If he has to make a Concentration check before Teleporting, his check is a 24.
With any luck, Symon will end the round back up in the Throne room, where he can tell his new companions to close the trap door as soon as everyone is out of there.
If not, oh well! Symon uses his Message spell to whisper to everyone: "Help, I'm stuck in a Web and a huge spider is about to eat me!"

"This is taking too long. Much too long."

"She keeps saying that they/he are back there and that she must kill them to protect the clan."
As he finishes speaking he goes all wooden like and starts moving in a dragging sort of way toward the middle entry.
At Symon's description of the spider many of you raise an eyebrow finding it a bit hard to believe that a spider could possibly be as large as he is describing in great detail.

"No, really! It was huge! The biggest spider ever!"
"Look at these webs!" He struggles to clean off the last of them.
"Well, anyway, there are mysteries to solve! Like where did these liches go? This good drow seems to have an idea. Let's check it out."
Symon activates his x-ray vision ring and peers through the door. He searches for traps as well as a way to open the door. [Search 51]
If it is a trigger/lock door, he tries to open it. Otherwise he lets the eager drow open it. (Disable Device 33) If he can't open it that way, Symon asks if anyone has a knock spell.
"I just used up the last charge on my knock wand before I met you guys," he says apologetically.

"It sounds like the scorpions Moralas sent after us earlier. I wonder if he is around?" Tericus says to Symon. "What's our next move?"

"We get out of this accursed room and kill the liches... without our mages. Both are gone if you noticed. We have two great clerics though, as well as our new friend.
"Let's rock."

The warrior stands ready at the door wielding Max. He calmly offers "Open it now..." in a way that makes your skin crawl. You can see he is determined to end this.

As the door in question is no longer in existance as it was the one that blew up minutes ago the Storms are faced with a 100 foot long dimly lit 6 ft wide passage that apparently ends in a stone wall.

Jandar casts Death Ward on himself, knowing they'll go after the clerics first, and follows the group. He is bursting with energy from all the spells and ready to fight.

The warrior activates his boots of flying and glides quickly down the hallway - making sure not to touch the ground. He picks up Fai'Fasal with one hand and brings him along (if he's willing). As they glide down the hallway he asks Lisseth/Fai'Fasal to identify if they are passing any secret doors. As they approach the end wall he looks it over for a way in - and sets the drow down so he can too.

Tericus follows Gareth as fast as he can

Onrad tumbles after Tericus and Gareth. His eyes are wide looking for traps and secret doors.
He smiles at Gareth's determination.
::we're as ready as we can be without the mages:: --he thinks.

Symon follows after his new comrades, keeping alert and trying not to walk into a trap.
Addinein Friday January 7th, 2005 6:23:19 PM
Addinein joins everyone in the rush to get down the tunnel. Hopefully no one will notice the squeamishness that he has about moving quickly down a drow stronghold hallway.
