Grendel Posted October 30, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted October 30, 2023 In the morning there is little light in the chamber, only the central seem of the doors allows any to penetrate, creating a long bright line across the chamber. When Tok awoke he looked about the chamber and found in the back wall among the intricate carvings some small imperfections indicating another door or movable section. The beam of light from the front door falls across the sculpture and onto it. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draidden Posted November 6, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 6, 2023 Kt'ckt'ta also known as Dr. K Current Stamina: 30 | Maximum Stamina: 30 | Initiative: +7 Dr. K wakes in the morning fully refreshed. Or as close to it as he can be sleeping on the ground. He is packing his blankets away when Tok mentions finding a door in the back wall of the room. He moves over to examine it. Thanks to Tok pointing it out he is able to see the portion of the wall that makes up the hidden door. He tries pushing on it to see if it will budge. If that fails he will start checking the walls around the door and then the door itself, looking for a button or something hidden in the murals on them. If that fails, then, unless someone has already, he will examine the statue to see if some part of it moves to open the door. This is just like those fantasy novels I like to read. A group of wanderers stumble across a long forgotten temple and discover a hidden door that leads to a long lost treasure. After they survive several deadly traps of course.

To get to the other slide." "I'll find those traps!" Gloob exclaims running around and looking in the sand for 'traps'... in places that they have all already stepped. The Dralasite hoped to impress the Vrusk because he hoped he could ride on him some day. What a glorious thing that would be, like mounted warriors from those old colorless two dimensional historical documents from the humans. Gloob just knew that once the Vrusk let Gloob ride him and could see how dangerous they could be, that the Vrusk would always let him ride.

Malkavian Grin Posted November 11, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 11, 2023 Stamina 35 / 35 After a rough sleep, Kayla got up and packed her things. She looked around the room as the sunlight went across the sculpture. "Anyone else think that's more than a coincidence with how it shines?" she asked, inspecting it closer.

Grendel Posted November 18, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted November 18, 2023 Dr. K moves starts handling he statue or sculpture, and finds that it does have many moving parts. The sculpture can be re-arranged through a series of cleverly hidden rotating points and hinges. Doing so requires some effort, either from intended rigidity or age, however after a few random turns the door does in fact pop open, as though once the catch was releases air pressure from the other side pushed it open a few centimeters.

Malkavian Grin Posted November 18, 2023 Clone Share Posted November 18, 2023 Stamina 35 / 35 "Oh. Right. Should have seen that coming," Kayla said as the statue locked into place and opened the next door. Slinging her pack over a shoulder, she stepped into the new room to get a peek. Then she started rummaging around to see if she had a light. Seeing she did have one still, Kayla popped it on and started to look around. OOC I've forgotten already. Is this system like Warhammer where you want to roll below? If so, that's a success since I rolled 20, I just was testing out the success function; seems I got it backward.

Grendel Posted November 25, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted November 25, 2023 The walls inside the passage have the same geometric patterns engraved throughout. The air smells dusty and Tok sneezes from the inhalation. The passage takes an immediate turn and seems to pass beside the previous chamber heading behind it. The hall goes on for some time but the end is within the beam of the flashlights*, what looks like a dead end. Halfway there a sound stops the group in their tracks: it sounds like a combination of baritone gargling with pebbles and someone scratching at a blackboard. Then it stops and starts to repeat. * Flashlight in Alpha Dawn has a 100 m beam. Pretty serious...

She turned the flashlight upward to the ceiling and scanned for anything that seemed like separate architecture--like a slab dropping down.

Whatever the sound ahead of them is, it sends a shiver over Gloob's epidermis. He might be somewhat crazy, but he's not stupid.
