Fuck. Welp, new character time.

Name: Sir Gadarin of the Azure Fist
Gender: Male
Class: Wannabe Robot Fighter

Weapons: spiked chain, repeating crossbow (10/10)
Armour: Banded armor

Items: Rations for 2 weeks, torch, rope and grappling hook, a roll of parchment, charcoal

[USEC_OFFICER]

I go investigate the silver sphere.

search the Silver sphere.

Behind the silver sphere is... Well, a tiny little cubby hole, large enough for somebody to insert their head in and slam it against the wall. As Kadzar III pulls his head out with a couple of curses, Karas decides to have a look around.

[16 + 5] After minutes of diligent searching, you find a secret door. But not just any secret door. It's a one-way secret door! And you're the wrong side. I hope you're good with lockpicks...

Wow, this is the shittiest rogue I've ever played.

Search again, but like a boss this time.

[13 + 5] Even being a boss, you find nothing new in the northern chapel. Well, I'm assuming that you didn't check the pews, for the obvious reasons.

I'll search the pews and outer area, before approaching the blue altar, and the misty arch, and giving them a look over as well. I'll keep my distance from the skeleton, though.

[19] Finding nothing interesting in the northern chapel, you hop the railing and give the blue altar and misty arch a good eyeballing.

The blue altar is like nothing you've seen before. As far as altars go it's pretty tame. Vines intertwine with each other on the sides of the altar, while the top is slightly concave, to help hold the sacrifices. A little drain on the side is for when you clean up after said sacrifices. Still, you hesitate to touch it, for the altar pulses with a malignant blue light.


The archway in the chapel is slightly different from the other two. The three gems are all orange in colour, as is the mist inside the archway. But other than those two points it's pretty identical.

Examine that door for traps then open it and back off a bit to see if anything happens. If nothing happens, cautiously move forward a bit after marking on the wall that there's a secret door here, with an arrow pointing at it, incase it closes behind me.

[20 + 5] Aha! It appears that the secret door is connected to a falling trap! Basically, when you open the door the entire floor opens up from underneath you.

[8 + 5] Disabling it is a piece of cake.

Having chalked up the walls and made prayers to your deity of choice, you open up the secret door.

The chamber is bare but for three conspicuous chests, each about 4 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 3 feet deep. One appears to be of gold, the second is silvery, and the third is constructed of hardy oak banded with thick bronze.

The room is thirty feet by thirty, but is completely bare, so as not to draw attention away from the three chests. I could talk about the delicate scrollwork on the golden chest, or the scratches and marks on the bronze one, but let's face it. What's more interesting is what's inside the chests.

Armour: Banded armor

Sir Gadarin of the Azure Fist, having nothing better to do with his life, creaks ups to the entrance to the tomb of horrors. You're probably wondering how somebody can creak in banded armour, and the answer is that Sir Gadarin can make any armour creak. Even a shirt. Especially a shirt.

[monk12]

PTW. Because I lack any commentary more witty than a three letter acronym.

I think the fact that your comment is witty despite stating that it isn't is somewhat ironic as well. This may be an example of dry, ironic wit.

I do my best

[Kadzar]

I'll go over to Kazard to protect him in case anything attacks him while opening the chest. Which, considering this is D&D, will probably be one of the chests themselves.

[Hanslanda]

Zako. I know the treasure lust that lives in all adventurers is upon you now. I must tell you to be slow and cautious while searching your phat lewt. Remember that there are monsters that look exactly like treasure chests.

Hmm. I place my short sword on the altar.

[killerhellhound]

I go into the northern chapel and cast detect magic on the glowing altar then seeing the others go into the secret door I follow and zap each chest after casting detect magic on the chests.

[Solifuge]

The altar and chests are in different areas:
- Red Orb = Secret Door to Chests
- Black Orb = Long Tunnel to Evil Chapel.

Where's our cartographer?! We're lost without you!

[Kestrel_6]

lockpick secret door. ask if anyone has tools to do so.

[Zako]

((I bet Kestrel is glad I gave him my lockpicks. Also, I'm totally convinced that this whole room is a trap. Perhaps a trap with multiple traps inside of it! Still, I gotta check, just in case.

Also, finding the trap on the door scared the crap out of me. I honestly thought there wouldn't be a trap! Who puts a trap on a secret door? Apparently someone does...))

Carefully examine the whole room multiple times for traps. Tap the floor and roof with my pole, as well as the inside and outside of the doorframe. Don't go into the room.

[Lich180]

((Ok, had time off yesterday and today. Spent yesterday sleeping / spending time with family, so today is game / other stuff day I think I've got the map updated (probably missed something, hard to sift through 5 pages of stuff and manage to get everything) but it should be good enough for now.))

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I'm gonna examine that strange archway, without touching it. Since I don't have much else useful to do, I'll try to figure out why this archway has 3 orange gem-buttons, and ask for a stick to try and push them in.

[Vorthon]

Sir Gadarin will make his way to the sphere chamber.

[USEC_OFFICER]

I'll go over to Kazard to protect him in case anything attacks him while opening the chest. Which, considering this is D&D, will probably be one of the chests themselves.

You wander over to Kazard, to protect him once he opens a chest.

...

Well, to protect him when he gets around to opening a chest.

Hmm. I place my short sword on the altar.

Unlike Midna, you decide to be polite and enter the inner sanctum through the opening in the railing. You know, the one between the pews? Intrigued by the glowing properties of the altar, you carefully place your short sword on it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Suddenly a lightning blot shoots out of the altar, blasting up north between the rows of pews.

[REFLEX: 17 + 5] With cat-like reflexes you jump out of the way, avoiding most of the blot. Still, you're a bit on the crispy side. 1 damage

I go into the northern chapel and cast detect magic on the glowing altar then seeing the others go into the secret door I follow and zap each chest after casting detect magic on the chests.

[9] Yep. The altar sure is magical. Totally 100% magical. I'd stay away from it if I were you.

You think about going back to the hallway of spheres to avoid the murderous glances that Hans is giving you (and to help Kazard or something) but decide that things can wait for another turn.

lockpick secret door. ask if anyone has tools to do so.

[5 + 5] You fail to lockpick the secret door. Embarrassed, you ask if anybody has any lockpicking tools, so that you'd have an excuse if anybody came over.

I'm gonna examine that strange archway, without touching it. Since I don't have much else useful to do, I'll try to figure out why this archway has 3 orange gem-buttons, and ask for a stick to try and push them in.

You examine the strange archway...

Yep, it's definitively an archway. And it's pretty strange too. Bored, you decide to push the gem-buttons randomly.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Nothing happens. In fact the gems don't even go in slightly, like you would expect a button to do.

Sir Gadarin will make his way to the sphere chamber.

Clanking, you telepathically make your way through the fresco hallway, input the correct sequence into the first archway, and wander into the hallway of spheres, where you see Karas embarrassedly looking around. Oh, and I suppose that Dr. Malpracteece is there too.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Blah, if I had time I'd fix the map, but for now let me just say that you need to pay more attention to the colours of the spheres and their positions. For instance, the bright blue sphere is on the western wall, and the chapel is 70x70 feet in total, with short railing dividing the space.

[Zako]

You missed my action! D:

[USEC_OFFICER]

You missed my action! D:

Damn it. Hold one for one second kind sir.

Carefully examine the whole room multiple times for traps. Tap the floor and roof with my pole, as well as the inside and outside of the doorframe. Don't go into the room.

[12 + 5] You find zero traps.

[20 + 5] If the room had any traps what-so-ever, you'd have found them by now.

[Zako]

Righto then!

Go get a mage and have him cast detect magic on the chests and room. If he says there's some kind of magic in there, don't go in. If not, tap the chests with the end of my pole.
