"We do need to rest but... would you be able to hold your curiosity for so long? Not sure I can. Of course, we can spend time in speculations what is behind the door."

Chapter 1: The Whispering Cairn
bwatford replied to bwatford's topic in Age of Worms 5e's Game Threads
Dungeons & Dragons 5e with DM BWatford Allera emerged from the chamber, her presence a silent beacon to the others gathered by the shadowed drain grates. Meanwhile, Sunny, with a heart pounding in anticipation, fought the urge to delve into the unknown, awaiting the scouting team’s signal. The tension of inaction was a tangible specter haunting her every moment. The grates, with their iron bars crisscrossing like the gates to an underground realm, beckoned to Sunny with an irresistible siren call. They conjured memories of a grand wine cellar nestled within a fortress atop distant hills, its vaulted ceilings echoing with the promise of hidden delights. The statuesque blonde crouched, her movements deliberate, as she sought the familiar comfort of spirits. The flickering torchlight in her grasp danced over the grates, casting an amber glow that transformed every shadow into the silhouette of a whiskey barrel, its aged contents whispering secrets of a rich, golden past. Yet, the whiskey remained elusive, a mere mirage in her hopeful quest. However, nestled just beyond the reach of the grate, a lever beckoned—slender enough for a deft hand to grasp. Its purpose was a mystery, an enigma wrapped in the stone and darkness of their subterranean confines. THE WHISPERING CAIRN The Cairn HillsThe Cairn Hills refers to the rolling hills and valleys surrounding Diamond Lake, and they are rife with hundreds of burial sites and ruins, the remnants of a civilization long forgotten. Local youth like to dare each other to explore various cairns as a rite of passage, though they have to evade the roving patrols of soldiers from the Garrison and The Bronzewood Lodge to do it. Every decade or so, someone comes across an undisturbed cairn and lives to tell the tale.

The wait was killing her. The barred grates finally got the better of her, reminding the Suel of a vaulted wine cellar from that fort up on the hills. The tall blonde knelt down in search of booze. Holding the torch directly over the bars, she peered deeply down inside both of them to see what she could see. Regardless of reality, every shadow and stone was instead the curved rim of an untapped aged whiskey cask. Poison Effects: -2 on strength-based attacks, damage, saves, and ability checks. -

Dungeons & Dragons 5e with DM BWatford Thodin approached the grates in the alcove, noting their prolonged dryness; not a trace of moisture was visible. Yet, there was a dark stain where some liquid had once trickled from beneath the central pillar into the grates. Upon closer inspection, he was unable to determine the nature of the liquid. Armando edged past the dwarf, his curiosity reaching its peak as he moved just enough to glimpse what was around the corner, and it was unexpected. A dry fountain rested against the south face of the central pillar. This fountain, with its low basin and a wall spigot standing about 8 feet tall, resembled a shower and was clearly designed for beings much taller than a gnome. Opposite the dry fountain, a door was set into the southern wall of the chamber. Shortly after, Riffraff joined the gnome, looking towards the fountain. Allera courageously entered the chamber and seated herself on the stone bed. Although it was not the epitome of comfort, it sufficed for her needs as she commenced her ritual to sense any magical auras. After completing the ritual, she informed her companions that she detected no magical auras nearby.

"Architect... Probably. Though those people were also inventors and used magic. I wonder why they lived underground... And how come no one above knew about them." The room looked safe enough and she fully agreed that it was a good place to take a rest. "Give me a few minutes I will check if some magic is left around here." She risked sitting on the bed-resembling stone and concentrate on the spell summoning magical vision. Then looked around to see if anything changed.

The large 6 ft level looked especially attractive to the half-drunk wastrel. Rather, looked attractive to that subconscious, primal killing frenzy slowly baking within her...the one slowly climbing towards the light where all the brains to bash dwelled. Images of grasping the long tool with both hands and shattering the ribcages of 4-headed skeletons flickered behind her lids. Images of the heavy lead plumb bobs, tossed one hand after the other into the summoned demonic servants of mad mages grasped at her fingertips, like a puppeteer pulling them closer to the forgotten smith's peg board. Chisels were thick, cold iron daggers to puncture the bloated masses of tentacles creeping around the next corner. But Riffraff's warning, and her earlier bumble with the stone trap stayed her hand. Like the thief, she would wait until scouting was complete to claim her 'treasure'. Poison Effects: -2 on strength-based attacks, damage, saves, and ability checks. -

"Yes, yes...a builder of sorts" he agreed, "It would make sense that there could be hidden compartments, and the tools would be important to him, so that's a good place to look! However, if he built this tomb, then let's assume he built more than a single trap...how 'bout I finish checking round the corner before we start treasure hunting!"

He peered at the supposed bedchamber with a queer eye and a tilt of his head. He'd seen some rough times in life and there wasn't always a bed to call his own, but he could not imagine choosing to sleep down here regularly. The invitation of such a night's rest sounded profoundly uncomfortable. But there was more to it, he pondered as Thodin further voiced similar observations. This room had been the first one derelict of traps of creatures -at least so far- and thus perhaps it was meant to be near such things. A man with enemies may require such things. Armando thought about what kind of enemies would push him to live in the depths of a tomb and the idea made him mentally shiver. Too curious for his own good, the gnome peeked around the next corner to see what lie just south of the grate-in alcove.

And, pillagers apparently have already visited. Besides looking for traps, that bed slab, those tool hangars, and behind those built-in drawers might hide compartments or releases for secret doors." He hopes those more clever than himself can find something useful or valuable. For his part, the dwarf moves to and squats over the drains examining the leftover deposits to try to ascertain if anything besides water drained into the grates and how long ago it might have been. "After a good search, maybe we could rest here until the effects of the poison gas pass? But, we'll need to investigate beyond the next turn of the hallway first."

Dungeons & Dragons 5e with DM BWatford Thodin advanced to the position near Riffraff, handing the torch to Sunny. Riffraff edged forward to peer around the corner, only to discover Sunny at his side, the torch's glow dispelling the shadows. The chamber to the east... Living Quarters The expansive chamber likely served as the living quarters for a figure of significance. A substantial stone slab, hinting at the form of a bed, lies against the north wall, beneath an immense bas-relief. This depicts a sturdy, bald humanoid with a pronounced nose and hands outstretched. The figure is adorned in a wind-swept robe, sculpted with care to convey the aura of a victorious deity. An amulet, bearing a glyph resembling a stylized arrow, hangs around the figure's neck. Wardrobes and dressers, which appear to be hewn directly from the chamber walls, show signs of having been plundered long ago. Alcove to the west.... Sunny glanced into the western alcove, which housed grates on the floor and various architectural tools hanging above on pegs. Among these tools were rusted chisels, hammers, plumb bobs, squares, compasses for drawing circles, levels, mallets, and saws. Notably, a few pegs were conspicuously empty. The alcove seemed to serve dual purposes: a storage area and a showcase reflecting the owner's skill. It appeared that the alcove itself, an architectural feature, may have been embellished with the very tools that brought it into existence, representing the enduring cycle of creation and utility in ancient craftsmanship. THE WHISPERING CAIRN The Cairn HillsThe Cairn Hills refers to the rolling hills and valleys surrounding Diamond Lake, and they are rife with hundreds of burial sites and ruins, the remnants of a civilization long forgotten.

You have plenty length of rope to get to the egg, the issue was that an unseen servant would set the mold off, and it only has 1 hit point and because of the item being small boulder size and egg shaped it would need a complex cross tie that a single mage hand could not pull off. Now you might be able to do it with two mage hands, but you would still have to get pretty close to be within 60 feet (every other diagonal is 10 feet). It was also mentioned that if it is an egg, pulling it off the stand may break it. The only reason it was answered on discord is because that is where the question was asked. I thought everyone was on there. Sorry if that was not the case. -
