Ch. 4: Even Deeper Into the Tomb

[saalaria]

"Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!"

[GreyWolfVT]

Odilo "Will someone stop that infernal snoring noise? It's driving me crazy!" the pigeon flies out of Odilo's pokey and rests on the nose of the snoring one and starts to coo and peck the forehead of the person.

[Stirling]

McCloud not risking going through another dark room to who know where? will drag friend by the leg and down the corridor from whence we came."Guys I think we need a considered retreat and take stock of where we are and clues we have? Perhaps we have missed a door or two, though going behind this elephant block seems a good idea if we can squeeze through. or perhaps dig a long rut in the ground we lie in and wait for it to simply roll safely! over us, "

[GreyWolfVT]

Odilo "That'd be an awful lot of digging and a deep trench some of us are at least six foot tall you know."

[tkrexx]

Ae knoz minin,' Urdak again reminds the crew at the mention of digging, even tho he still cradles the snoozing Bagrin.

[Mondego]

"McCloud, can you climb the ceiling like you did before?"

OOC: How high is the ceiling? How much space between the top of the juggernaut and the ceiling?

[Zhym]

The ceiling is about 10' high. There should be some room between the juggernaut and the ceiling.

[Zhym]

By the way: time passes as you consider your options.

Tick, tick, tick...

[GreyWolfVT]

I did try and wake whom ever was snoring with Cyril what happened there?

[Zhym]

Sorry, I forgot about that.

You're unable to rouse your sleeping mates.

[GreyWolfVT]

Odilo "Confound that accursed snoring." he takes off one of his boot stockings"socks" and stuffs it in the mouth of the one snoring "saalaria". "Ah now that is better."

[Zhym]

I'm going to post the next update sometime tomorrow night. So if you want your characters to do something other than stand in the path of the juggernaut, it would be good to post that sooner rather than later.

[GreyWolfVT]

Odilo has been and plans to remain on the stairs he will drag the once snoring one up with him sock in mouth and everything.

[ragnboneshopper]

Bagrin snores peacefully, blissfully unaware of any danger, on rollers or otherwise...

[tkrexx]

Urdak returns to the stairs, his Gnome luggage in tow, thinking the ignorant Humons have again refused the gift of his 2nd best talent.

[saalaria]

".........."

(Muffled snoring!)

[Mondego]

Urdak returns to the stairs, his Gnome luggage in tow, thinking the ignorant Humons have again refused the gift of his 2nd best talent.

"If you have any idea, Urdak, feel free to try it. I fear we are at an impasse with the stone roller."

"How high is your invisible wall, Odilo? Is there space between it's top and the wall?

[GreyWolfVT]

Odilo "Roughly 220 square feet my good man. So actual dimensions likely no there is no space to get over it."

[Stirling]

McCloud will drag his companion to the southern end of the corridor, (who does he have? Skarlos i think?) , "perhaps a transmutation of the floor in to a mud hole will cause this mammoth thingy from rolling over us and derail?"he will suggest.

[Zhym]

Transmute Rock to Mud has an area of effect of one 20'x20'x20' cube per level of the caster. That's 104,000 cubic feet of mud as cast by Quinn. The minimum size for a mud pit if Quinn casts that spell is a pit 60' on each side and 30' deep.

FWIW, Quinn's Stone Shape could shape 16 cubic feet of stone, which is about half the volume of the average coffin. It's probably not enough to make a trench large enough for one, let alone all of you. But you might shape the stone in other ways, of course.
