The Stone Tooth

[Terran]

Christo follows quietly behind Urd to a position just behind the front ranks of the party, searching for anything hidden in the area. Once the group stops, Brother Vanleaf will keep his eyes and ears focused on the surroundings watching and listening for movement or anything unusual in the area.

Unusually quick for a gnome, Sugrin keeps pace with his much taller elf friend, staying a step or two behind him and keeping his eyes and ears open for any sign of danger.

Gerbimble nods approvingly as Urd hauls the box out of its hiding place. Moving on, the gnome too keeps his eyes and ears open for more secret compartments, signs of activity and especially traps.

Daurant, Holy Warrior of Moradin

With the others caught up Daurant glances left and right before choosing to make a quick inspection of the dead end before leaving it behind the party. Was this an unexcavated branch of the ancient halls or some other oddity?

"Lets put this dead end behind us before we proceed."

Once in the small chamber at its end, Daurant looks about, studying the stone walls for signs of mining or why this branch might have been abandoned.

Appearance: 4'2", 182 lbs., Daurant has the pale skin tone of his Mountain Dwarf ancestors and a well groomed, waist length beard of silvery hue that would not shame him in any dwarf hall. His eyes are a dark grey reminiscent of the stone that makes up his kin's home. Strands of mithral and gold are braided into his beard, giving it a glittering sheen.

[Terran]

In addition to his natural Elven tendencies to uncover secret locations, Brother Vanleaf will also actively search for hidden places and secret doors, especially in the dead end of the passageway to seemingly nowhere.

[Chaz Hoosier]

The crew doesn't find much else in the large natural chamber. It's clearly the common area for the orc tribe that has taken up residence in the keep. There are signs of their coming and going everywhere. The crew don't hear much besides the occasional distant thrum from deeper in the complex. Daurant finds the side passage is very cleverly constructed to appear as a natural cavern worn out by millennia of dripping water. But of course his clever Dwarven eyes can see that this is not so--there is a secret door at the end of the passage.

[Sorithar]

  

Daurant, Holy Warrior of Moradin

Daurant runs his fingers along the stone in near reverence, nodding to himself before pausing to examine a portion of the smooth hewn wall. He takes a step back and studies the wall for a moment. Then he nods slowly and grins.

"Tis not all as it seems. A concealed piece of stonework. Na stony danger I can tell, but mayhap other dangers. Urd, that's ya name, correct? Ya seem the one to find nasty hidden surprises. See here, I trust the All-Father grants you the cunning ta see that hidden door. Can you tell if it be trapped..? If na, I'll lead us in, lest one of ya wish to!"

Taking a step back from the hidden doorway, after pointing it's edges out to Urd to hasten things, he draws his axes, one to a hand. Hidden things were rarely left unguarded...

[RedRajah]

"Give me a moment then..." Whispering, Urd leaned in to listen in by it, then pulled out her tools to check the door. The orcs had missed the earlier secret passage to the archers' nest, but maybe they knew of this one. It might explain where they had dashed off to.

The door doesn't seem to be locked or trapped. She doesn't hear anything through the door.

[Terran]

Brother Vanleaf motions with his bow for the door to be opened as the Elf takes another step back and readies his attack by drawing the string of his long bow tight as he is ready to provide cover fire for the front ranks, as soon as any threat presents itself.

Ooc: Readied Action to Attack

[RedRajah]

"Ser Daurant, it should be safe for you to enter. Well, nothing on the door at least..." Urd spoke quietly as she put her tools back. Then, much like the priest, she too took a step back and readied her bow for potential enemies. She had heard nothing -- but that didn't mean that there weren't any threats about. Better that the dwarven warrior should go first...

Just a second, Sugrin interrupts and moves to the door, planting his feet and reaching out with his earth sense.

Daurant, Holy Warrior of Moradin

Daurant raises an eyebrow at the gnome and gives a light laugh before shaking his head and shrugging, clearly both confused and amused by whatever just happened. When he steps away, he looks back to the others, assesses their readiness, then nods once and moves to open the door and step through it.

"Hello! Anyone home?!"

[Chaz Hoosier]

The secret door pivots on its center to reveal a dark passage. After about 40 feet it comes to a dead end. There are various orcish runes etched into the stone.
