[GreatWyrmGold]

I start sticking things into the slots. Anything that will fit. Coins, swords, rings, particularly thin adventurers, whatever I can get my hands on.

Be glad I'm not near this guy.

[kahn1234]

Grab the minotaur (Tank) and use him as a battering ram to try and smash the door down.

failing that, (if tat takes up a turn) in the turn after stick my sword as far as possible into the holes one by one until something happens.

[USEC_OFFICER]

Collect rope and tinder, name rope 'Stonesmashers the Deadly Coil', then follow someone.

Congratulations, your rope has gained enough EXP to level up and become Stonesmashers the Deadly Coil! Aw Yea-

Wait. You didn't get any EXP... Of course, you're not going to complain, seeing as Stonesmashers is strong enough to bash your skull in if it wanted to. But still...

"I MELTED STONE!"
Have a hearty chuckle, follow the others, let everyone else go down passage ways first.

Heh heh heh.

There, was that hearty enough? I can do heartier if you want.

Go back down the corridor that the golem rolled out of and search it

Razdak puts away his cheese and scurries down the golem corridor.

You all go back down the corridor and through the door that the golem burst out of to find...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A completely empty, 20x20 foot room.

...

Yeah.

Follow the rest of the party, and try casting Summon Ancestral Spirits and asking them to scout beyond the door. After making a small sacrifice of coins to appease them. (Or, in more meta-gamey terms; to hopefully get a bonus to my roll. )

[3] The spirits hate your attempt at meta-gaming and refuse to do anything despite how much gold you offer. Geez, thanks a lot guys.

I am... unclean.
Stand around. Loiter. Take up space and resources.

[8] You needless take up space and resources. However, due to your low(ish) roll, you decide to sit down instead of stand around. Ooh, how terrible. Wish you did better on that roll, don't you?

Oh, I can get free items? Missed that.

Head back to town a bit sheepishly, procuring:
-As much rope as possible (no more than one item slot)
-A grappling hook
-A miner's pick
-A climber's kit

Once these have been obtained, return to the dungeon and examine the entrance.

While the village of Badend isn't large enough to be considered a town, it does have rope, a grappling hook, a pick and a climber's kit to sell to you (they take credit and traveller's check). Obviously you aren't the first adventurer to brave the tomb, and you probably won't be the last.

Having collected your items you head back to the entrance of the dungeon. Said entrance is... Uh...

A low, flat-topped hill, about 200 yards wide and 300 yards long, protrudes from the earth. Ugly weeds, thorns, and briars grow upon the steep sides and bald top of the 60-foot-high mound. Black rocks crown the hilltop. The north side of the hill is fronted by a 20-foot high crumbling cliff of sand and gravel. A low stone ledge overhangs this eroded area, and shrubs and bushes obscure it from observation at a distance.

Oh, and three holes have been dug into the hillside. With your party ESP, you know which one is the real entrance to the tomb.

I start sticking things into the slots. Anything that will fit. Coins, swords, rings, particularly thin adventurers, whatever I can get my hands on.

Be glad I'm not near this guy.

Also, due to said party ESP, you also feel an acute sense of relief. You may about to walk into a horrible death trap, but at least you're not anywhere near this fellow, amiright?

Use Magic Missile to knock some rocks off of a nearby wall, and try to use push to make it fit the hole. Then put said rock into the hole.

[18] Nice try, but your abilities with magic are nowhere near good enough to shape stone just like that. Plus I'm pretty sure that pushing stone like that will just make it shatter into a bunch of tiny and useless pieces. Oh well.

Poke at the holes with my daggers. If I can somehow pick the door do so instead.

[4] The door is way beyond your ability to pick. Way, way beyond.

Poking at the slots with your dagger yields more results. Namely, at the back of each hole is some kind of button. Obviously you can't be too careful, so you leave the buttons alone for now.

I start sticking things into the slots. Anything that will fit. Coins, swords, rings, particularly thin adventurers, whatever I can get my hands on.

Luckily for the property and sanity of your fellow adventurers, your throwing knives are just the right size to fit into the slots. Well, part of the adventurer's sanity. I'm sure that the other part is crying out in fear as you blindly dick around with the door. Anyways after putting the knives in as far as they can go, something terrible[/b] wonderful happens.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The door swings outward, revealing more of the dungeon.

Grab the minotaur (Tank) and use him as a battering ram to try and smash the door down.

failing that, (if tat takes up a turn) in the turn after stick my sword as far as possible into the holes one by one until something happens.

With the door open thanks to Wall's experimenting, you decide to forgo the battering ram idea (you probably won't be able to lift him anyways) and just poke your head through the door.

Scores of massive columns hold up a ceiling tiled in dark stone. Across a gulf of darkness, something glitters with orange light.

Said pillars tower 30 feet above your head, and seem to almost effortlessly hold up several tons of earth and rock. The fancy designs and faces on the top of the pillars appear to be a natural part of the rock, obviously having been created by magic. But other then those pillars and that odd glowing in the distance, the room is largely uninteresting. Well, it also seems to stretch endlessly into the distance, but torchlight only goes so far.

Interview went awesome, hence the update today. You better enjoy it (because I did).

[Tsuchigumo550]

WOOOO, ARCHITECTURE!
Admire architecture.

[USEC_OFFICER]

WOOOO, ARCHITECTURE!
Admire architecture.

You admire the architecture. It is indeed, quite admirable. Next!

[Vorthon]

Check the pillar-hall for traps.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Thank GM for repeating the description.

Enter the real entrance. Carefully.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

before others go and set off any traps I take one of the golem wheels and rolls it down the pillar hall

[Kadzar]

Razdak attempts to thoroughly explore the empty 20x20 room.

[greymountain_Sage]

I head across the room, avoiding the pillars and seeking the glowing object.
If it looks valuable, I check it for traps and then pocket it quickly.

[anailater]

Appear in the pillar room, tell the others not to touch the pillars, examine the eyes of the faces on the pillars, do not touch.

[kahn1234]

Follow Wall II CAREFULLY and make sure he doesn't pocket anything valuable that could help the party.

If something attacks, bust a sexy move and then CHARGE!!!!!


(OOC realisation: I love playing the blonde aired, blue eyed beauty)

[Tsuchigumo550]

Don't touch the pillars?
Suppress the urge to hug one of the pillars.

[anailater]

Don't touch the pillars?
Suppress the urge to hug one of the pillars.

I have a disturbing trap theroy about them, the faces may hold the answer.

[zacen299]

Run headfirst into one of the pillars to see if it will set off any sort of trap.
