    Default Secrets of Tiro

    You wake up and realize that it is completely dark with no sources of light. If you are an elf or half-elf you also have a horrible headache (-2 on attack rolls and skill checks that require focus).

    Dark Vision
    Spoiler
    Show
    You appear to be in some underground area. The walls are about 30 feet apart and made of grey bricks which appear to be fairly rough. A large iron double door takes up a wall itself about 10 feet from where you are. The ceiling is about 9 feet high and is made of the same bricks as the walls. You can see that the corridor continues past 60 feet, but that is the limit of your vision.


    Dinlo wakes up and realizes that it is dark. Unable to see he calls out to the party as he stands up. "Ho, anyone else still here?

    Serenae also wakes up and sees that it's dark. "I'm over here " she says as she studies the surroundings.

    (Hey, so did I miss the update on how we got to this? Last I remember is we got our items from the wall and they talked to us. Oh, and how do you put in the spoiler tag? Incase I do something that can only be seen if they have dark vision, like stick my tounge out at you or something Would also be good to know if we have our stuff or not still)

    Riyu stands up slowly lighting a torch (based on whether he has it or not) to see the surroundings easier.

    (You still have all your items (including the torch which means everyone can read the dark vision spoiler now) and you haven't missed anything. You guys got the items and decided to rest in the palace, now you are waking up here, fun mystery time. To do a spoiler just do this [Spo iler] text [/Spoiler] but without the space between the o and i in the first one.

    Sarin remember that you have a headache (see first post). Oh, and I'll try to seperate DM stuff from char stuff by simply hitting enter. So yeah.

    Dinlo looks around as he responds to Riyu "I believe we are in the dungeons beneath the palace. I've never been here myself, but if I had to guess where this passageway leads I'd have to say," Dinlo points down the passage "that way."

    Riyu thinks silently to Rilla "Rilla, do you know why the elves have pain in their heads?" and stares at Dinlo from the corner of his eyes like he's reached a new level of idiocy. "The corridor leads that way. . . you'd be very useful to the blind. Is there any help you can offer our group as to where we go from here to question the King, or someone else less deadly to us, who might tell us what has happened and how we may stop this mist or whatever these items are for?" Riyu walks slowly over to the iron door and tries listening through it:

    1d20 + 5 =23

    Rilla speaks into your mind.Various spells were cast last night to make everyone fall asleep. Since the elves are immune to sleep I assume something more persausive was used. Unfortunetly I cannot say who due to some kind of magical darkness that was present. You hear nothing through the door, but do hear what sounds like running water coming from somewhere down the tunnel.


    Dinlo walks to the iron door and examines it. "This door is locked, but I can't figure out how. There is no locking mechanism or beam to lock it. It must be some kind of magic. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful Riyu, but that way does seem to be our only option. I suggest we pack up and head out. I can take front with Serenae and Geroshnar while the rest of you watch our backs."

    Serenae looks around to the group and says, "I'm okay with heading down the corridor. But I'm not being held responsible for any people/monsters that we might run into that want to kill us. However, I will be more than willing to hit them with my axe. Shall we head out?"

    Riyu begins down the long hall behind everyone else, taking quick glances behind him every few steps.

    He thinks to Rilla

    Rilla speaks into your mind: Whoever it was had to be a gifted magic user to be able to block all of us. I'm afraid I don't know much else. However, what is really scaring us is that all of us have such huge gaps in our memories. We all remember our creation and choosing names, then there seems to be nothing till you all found us. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.

    Sarin walks beside Elyssia, looking around the passageway. Her head hurts a bit. She says a silent prayer to Pelor to help guide them.
    "Riyu do you have any idea where this leads?"

    The dungeon continues on for quite abit until finally you all come to a large cavern. The cavern is huge and no one can see quite how far back or wide it is. The ceiling alone seems to be about 120 feet high. The walls are natural stone unlike the walls of the previous dungeon corridor. You can see what appears to be a river or stream running through the cavern, but other than that nothing of real interest.

    Arin speaks into your mind. None of us really know what happened last night. Some stupid meany cast a spell that made it so we couldn't see what was going on while you meditated. If I ever find out who did it though you and I can smoosh them to bits.


    Dinlo looks around the cavern. Lets at least stick in pairs, and explore this area. I'll go with Elyssia.

    You sense that something is not right with the cavern, but can't figure out what.


    Riyu

    Nothing seems out of place, but you still can't shake the feeling that this cavern shouldn't be here. The walls just don't feel right. The only thing that really seems ok is the river so far.


    From what it looks like, Group A (Dinlo, Elyssia) will explore the left part of the cavern, Group B (Sarin, Geroshnar) are heading straight up through the middle, while Group C (Riyu, Serenae) are now heading towards the river which is mainly located to the right of the cavern. Tell me what your chars are doing and give me spot, listen, and search checks as needed.

    (Some people (*cough, cough* becca/dallas *cough,cough* need to post more so it doesn't look like I post so much :) )
    Riyu looks up and down the river (So DM, is there another side of the river? does it come out of the wall and go back into a wall? Or is there an open cave at both ends of the river?) and across it to the other side, and then looks down to try and see the bottom of the river. Riyu then looks over at Serenae wondering how well she can swim. Riyu then begins searching along the river length towards the opposite side of the cave.

    The river appears to come forth from a cavern, but no sides to head up unless you want to swim it. The river is about 50 feet across, but you are unable to see the bottom or where it leads to as it winds it way through the cave.

    Rilla speaks to your mind, she sounds confused. Cave? What Cave? As you look into the river you spot a round object seemingly lodged about 20 feet underwater on the opposite bank.

    Riyu thinks to Rilla "What do you mean what cave? I asked about the cavern we are in, Do you feel or sense anything about it? And can you make out anything on that round object in the water?"


    Riyu focus's in on the round object lodged on the other side of the bank about 20ft underwater and points to it. "Serenae, do you see that? Can you make anything out about it?" Riyu then looks at Serenae trying to gauge how well she can swim, having never been taught how himself.
