Search the room for switches, and do a quick test on my ring: Try to slide it off and on my finger a few times. If it's cursed, it won't come off.

Probably. Depends on what the curse is. Remember, this is Acererak you're dealing with. For all you know, it could be a trap that activates when you take the ring off.

On the other hand, I might just be messing with you. By suggesting that I'm just messing with you.

Well crap.
Okay, Hand mystery paper to nearest mage and say "This thing is freaking me out. Do something Magicky with it." Then search the new room thoroughly for traps and/or secret doors.
Disable secret doors and open traps. WAIT! Strike that, Reverse it.

You chuck the mystery paper into the hands of the nearest mage, and then turn around to search the new room.

[14 + 5] You quickly find and disable the crossbow trap with ease.

[16 + 5] And to top things off, you find a secret door! Do you remember the problem with Kazard's secret door? Well, this secret door also needs to be opened in a unique way before you can go through it. Probably something to do with hinges in weird places or something like that.

Follow Greymountain and check things as well, and try to make sure nothing will activate and send us both to the afterlife.

Javier seems to be handling everything pretty damn well, so you leave him to his work.

The room is 10 feet by 10 feet, and has no other entrances/exits. As you enter the room, you distinctly hear the sound of a crossbow cocking.

Kadbot runs back to the previous room.

You quickly run into the previous room, safe from any imaginary dangers.

: AGNS searches for secret doors five times over. Because he showed that little brain punk how it's done.

[13 + 5] [15 + 5] [4 + 5] [19 + 5] [9 + 5] You find no secret doors, despite your ability to show up preserved brains.

Search the room for switches, and do a quick test on my ring: Try to slide it off and on my finger a few times. If it's cursed, it won't come off.

As you fiddle with your magical ring to see if it can come off (outcome: it can be taken off like a regular ring), you hear a faint noise behind you, like somebody slowly drawing a piece of metal across stone. Surprised, you draw your short-sword and turn around.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Head to the altar room and thoroughly inspect.

[2 + 5] Your intense inspections reveal nothing.

((Cursed magical items that only activate when you take them off... That's terrifying! Don't say that man!))

"Gods... Don't walk up on me like that! I thought the worse for a second there! At least say something...

And it's my ring, so no."

Search the room for switches and if I find none, head out into the hall and search there.

Okay, Time to go Text Based Adventure Game on this door.
I start by grabbing the door and pulling at the top, bottom, left, and right edge in that order. If that fails I push inwards in the same order. Then I attempt to find a pivot point, handle, doorknob, or switch.
Wish me luck.

"Dibs on a healing potion! This beautiful body can't stop claws. Someone else can have the gems and other two healing potions."
Grab a healing potion. Search for secret doors/traps/etc. an additional five times.

Hey, Maxi! I got health potions! There's fat loot all over the floor! And AGNS here has been staring at walls for at least twenty minutes now!
