Mencot Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Generally would your enemy not flee away from you if you are inept enough to allow them the opportunity? We are taught that a true warrior does not let his enemy flee, that he is destroyed and trampled beneath our feet. We call it Sending them to ground. keliim agrees "A real warriors spirt! "Sending them to the ground", ecual sending them down, South." Quote
Endgame Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 "I'm not sure about that connection, leader, but... Maybe the solution to this does lurk later in here. Let's move South. How d'you think that relates to the handles, though...?" Quote
Mencot Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) OoC: Actually don´t have a clue on this one, I don´t like riddles, especially if they don´t have or have little to anything to do with the challange. "I don´t, just trying out something. Was thinking if we move the handles to point down to the ground! Alright, whatshall we do, should we move on and think of this later?"

Rconn0 Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 "I say that we try keliim's idea first then move on." Quote
Mencot Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 "I say that we try keliim's idea first then move on." "Thou mean rotating all the handles, directing to the ground? Yea, that be my only idea and option. What do thou others think, Terry, Muradin?" Quote

Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 QM NOTE: I need confirmation from the fourth party member at the handles. Quote
Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) OoC: Scuba said he was gonna be gone for a few days, dunno if he has returned yet but he hasn´t comment on any topics in Heroica. So i will play his part. Calamity agrees to do as the others. EDIT: I can see Scuba being Online right now, so if he wants to give an opinion to what we should do, u r welcome. If not we go with what I said. Edited June 6, 2015 by Mencot Quote
Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) QM NOTE: I will take your command for him since we have been here a while already. The four party members on the Handles look from one another, Keliim carefully counts down 3, 2, 1, and each of them pushes DOWN on their plunger with all of their strength. The handle posts slam downward shattering the crystal embedded in their base. There is a great flash of light as all four posts ignite. When the party opens their eyes the chains have been shattered and the key lies unmarred among shards. Party leader please divide the loot. LOOT Topaz Key (WP 1, Electricity Elemental Staff) Crystal Shard X6 (Treasure item, worth 20 Gold) With the Third Key in hand the party must decide where their journey will take them next.

Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) Keliim protects his face with his raised hand when the device goes off. He can see that the keystaff is released, he takes it from its holder. And gives it to Rethinal. "That was actually moo easy than expect'd." He picks up some of the shards that had fallen on the floor, "Hmm, these look as they couldst be of some value." There is 6 shardpieces so Keliim gives 1 shard to Everybody in the current party. "Terry, thou said we should head South, thou have some specific room?" Keliim goes to the door heading south. Edited June 6, 2015 by Mencot Quote
Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 Travelling south the Party once again comes to the Empty room. Quote
Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 The heroes find themselves in the emptyroom, Keliim searches the room and especially the spiderwebs if there would been something left there but dust. He tells the others about the map visualization he has made so far. Quote
Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) Keliim looks about the room. Hidden among the dust and debri is an old weapon. It is rusty and caked with age. It must have been here for quite some time. Crossbow(WP3, ranged) Aside from that he finds nothing of note or value. Edited June 6, 2015 by Asphalt Quote
Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 Keliim looks at the old corssbow, whips off some of the dust and checks the mechanism. "Seems still to work like a charm." He shows it to Aristune and hands it over, "This could be useful, right!" Quote
Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 Aristune Equips the Crossbow It's old, but still seems serviceable. Better than throwing punches at the beasts. I mean no disrespect, but we will never complete this trial if all we do is double back where we have already been. Quote
Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 I mean no disrespect, but we will never complete this trial if all we do is double back where we have already been. "Aye, totally true. Terry had some idea going south but don´t wot what he meant. Lets test going East here. Keliim goes to the door headin east. "Letssee what is inside hither." Quote
Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 The Party goes East into a room, noticeably warmer than the other. Not Uncomfortable, but the sweat begins to flow immediately. As they look around they see why. The room swarms with reptiles. The Creatures all raise their heads, dark eyes gleam in the light of the globes. Fangs are bared and hisses emanate from the mouths of each animal. How will the party react? Quote
Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 "Snakes, I hate snakes. Aristune, what kind of reptiles art these, seems like they don´t welcome us" Quote
Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 These are typical desert dwellers my friend. It would seem the Parlor has been stocked with locals. Sand Dragons, Golden Vipers, Oasis Vipers, and a Queen Cobra. Nothing you would want to find in your bedroll, deadly all. Quite the challenge. Quote
Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) OoC: Can you put up our current stats, what is my health situation before we attack? If I need to take a potion. "That Queen cobra is gonna give a nice snakeskin! Lets get ride of these?" Edited June 6, 2015 by Mencot Quote

Asphalt Posted June 6, 2015 Author Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) As Keliim's aggressive words the animals turn their gaze upon him. Several of the creatures hiss aggressively. Aristune cocks his head and listens. Then lets out a small chuckle. He quakesssss with feeeaaarrrr, The dessert is not his hooooommmmmeeeee. He smells of cold, but his bloddd will fill usssssss. These creatures find it amusing that you feel no fear of their bite. Edited June 6, 2015 by Asphalt Quote
Mencot Posted June 6, 2015 Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) "I have no fear for any of the things from the animalkingdom. Back home we lived in symbios with the animals and nature around us but we had little of snakes and reptiles there, too cold I guess. Can thou speak with these?" keliim looks at the snakes hissin and lets out a smirk. Edited June 6, 2015 by Mencot Quote
