Vladim Posted November 22, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 22, 2023 Thorkell turned to look at Golan, a little surprised at the offense he had suddenly taken, but he merely shrugged. "If you say so." he answered plainly, and then turned his torch elsewhere. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheezal Posted November 23, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 23, 2023 (edited) Golan replies "Well come on! It seem's it's obviously just a dead fall trap, even hunters rig those up to fell large creatures, You should talk to elves once and a while." at that he stares up at the suspended log,visually following the rope down to the chest,without touching a thing,attempting to see how it's tied on,and what would be the counter mechanism to either lower the log safely to the ground,or what will trigger the dead fall to fall. "Let's see what i can see?"

Niven81 Posted November 24, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 24, 2023 Aurora Aurora follows the others, her hand back on her sword hilt as they moved, ready for what may come and hoping that the next time she can do more than loose a piece of her tunic for a "scratch".

Eric Posted November 26, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted November 26, 2023 Golan creeps forward cautiously, looking at the log from all angles. Advancing a torch to support him, Thorkell sees another closed wooden door in the middle of the east wall.

cheezal Posted November 26, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) Golan taking his pole off of his back,crouches low to the ground,ready to spring backwards or to the side, if the log should fall, and with pressure and leveridge,attempts to open the lid of the chest from a pole length away.

Eric Posted November 27, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted November 27, 2023 Golan's pole gently pushes open the lid. The log doesn't move. Nothing springs out of the chest, either.

Black Wyvern Posted November 27, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 27, 2023 Ohthere comes back up the stairs and watches the antics with the chest. "Maybe we can put a rope around the chest and drag it out from under the log. Keep anyone from getting crushed." He suggests, not being able to resist putting his two coppers into the pot. Looking around. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheezal Posted November 28, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 28, 2023 Golan is a little surprised that worked,but a step forward without being dead is a good one.. Keeping to his Mantra of Don't get dead,he tries to think logically, without further touching the chest,he looks into the chest at all that beauty within, looking back at the log, he thinks would the chests contents weigh heavier then the log? Hence keeping the log up there,in a counterweight position...and would removing any treasure disturb that weight distribution? With some subtle moves he moves to the back of the chest,calling over Stoyan saying.. "I know your heart wants to just grab whats in there,but let's not,just yet!, What i am considering is we rotate the chest 180 degree's as delicate as we can, keeping a watchful eye on our friend up there. If that succeeds without it falling and making one or both of us a Halfling or a bright stain in the floor, then i suggest we then just remove small increments of it's contents,ever watchful of our friend,should it rush down to meet us violently,are we agreed?,If so then let's proceed" Summary Golan approaches the chest assesses it's weight,calls Stoyan to ponder rotating it 180 degree's, ready to leap out of the way, should it fall. If it doesn't fall, we then slowly remove increments of the chest's content out,and if the log falls ,we dive away from the impact zone.

Black Wyvern Posted November 28, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) "The room below is freshly ransacked, but a chest full of shinies is still here and undisturbed. Something don't smell right to me. Even with the obvious boom from above. But I ain't the one to tell someone to be cautious. Though something scares me it might be wise to be a bit cautious." Ohthere says not really believing an unfound fortune lays before them. Looking skeptical.

Vladim Posted November 29, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 29, 2023 Thorkell nodded at Ohthere's words. It seemed terribly suspicious, though the promise of treasure was alluring. Nevertheless, Golan seemed to have the situation under control. He thus kept his eyes on that wooden door in the east wall, and wondered what could be behind it...

Powderhorn Posted November 30, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 30, 2023 "Well, does anyone have, a pole? Say, you know, about ten feet long or so? Just something to give it a bit of a nudge from a distance?" Astrid asks, looking at Golan's pole.

hoverfrog Posted November 30, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 30, 2023 Stoyan Barakovsen Stoyan looks at his own 10 foot wooden pole that he'd been carrying around for what seemed like years, "Hmm, I've got this."
