Dungeoneering check.
((On what?))

Nadarr grunts, and doesn't touch the sword. He returns to looking through the rooms, as he had intended.
You check the chests. There are mostly possessions of the person. There is one chest in each tomb that has gold and small rocks that could be sold for a small sum. You find a solid gold crown with small gems encrusted on it. You don't feel dread fumbling through the gold.

Weston uses Nimue to check any inaccessible nooks and crannies for potential loot.
(17+1) You and nimue find nothing special in the rooms.

Jee wilikers, I think Highmax is near invulnerable, must have been dunked in the river styx like achilles was.
Just make sure he wears a boot.

((So much for agreeing not to loot the place.))

Dungeoneering on whatever I can

((I have absolutely no idea how to use dungeoneering but I have it.))

There is nothing magical. You take roughly 2 hours to count the gold. There is a total of 1837gp in the chests. The moment you try to check on the other possessions, you feel a jolt and are forced to let go. You don't think you should touch the ones they hold dear.

(17+9) You recall that this place had three warriors. One was a dwarf who's name is lost with the time, as was his wife who took his place as a warrior, and perhaps became greater then her husband. They were known as the Urmil couple. They were known to use a pickaxe as a weapon, the husband being the first warrior, hence the pickaxe showing significance as the first weapon. The other warrior was Raleddud, and was insulted for using a sword during a time when dwarves mostly used hammers, maces and axes. This dwarf used a sword, and he became a powerful warrior and killed many single-handedly. He was supposedly killed and went to a form of Hell, where he was doomed to deal with other spirits who suffered the same fate. He conquered that realm and released all the dead there and returned, bearing an adamantine blade with runes carved into it. He died later of old age and was a fearsome foe. He was supposudley a swordmage of a sorts, being able to cast spells upon his return, but many times it was proven false or cast aside. Whether he had that power or not, he his legend went on. The couple, was supposedly much more powerful then made out to be, mostly because they became the leaders of the fortress when Toady One died. These are their tombs, but there is rumors of the tomb of a fourth and even more terrifying dwarf, one that became the leader and delved too deep into madness, with Raleddud as his adviser and bodyguard. Its believed this mad leader was buried in a place far away from the others as either an exile or as a final redemption.

((While that is fantastic and all, could you tell me how one does use dungeoneering at all? Except for checking cardinal directions and change of depth.))

Share with everyone what Alexander recalled, as to give peace to why some are feeling dread.

Karl nods in appreciation to Alexander's explanation. "Your knowledge of history is commendable, to include so much about the past of this fortress. Is this an area of study for you?"

"What? It didn't strike you odd that I'd just agree to go on a suicide mission with you guys? I'm searching for something and it can only be found in dark, old places such as this one. Normally you don't set out to such dangerous places without knowing about it. I met some dwarves before the bandits caught me. They told me about it a bit."

((It does there things:

1) forage for food underground
2) knowledge checks on dungeons
3) monster knowledge on aberrant creatures (far realm)

((The only options you have is go deeper into the fortress or rest at the tomb. There may or may not be a chance to return to the tomb, I'm not saying anything))

Nadarr finishes with putting away the gold, then declares he is now going back for his rest. He attempts to go back to the tomb.

You go back into the tomb and curl up as you normally would. The heat of the magma and how the room maintains a decent temperature is soothing almost and you fall asleep within minutes.

((Because I'm really sick of people assuming stuff, Alexander, Cromwell and Nadarr get gold for searching the rooms, etc. because none of you would actually know as you're all in another room as the others go tomb raiding.

As for random roll, Alexander takes the crown because no one said to grab it))
