I was just checking for traps! Wasn't gonna open it... yet!

My name is Kassim, I am a, he pauses, treasure hunter. And was hunting along with my companion Asterion. I am saddened to hear that he is no longer. But I do have some skills, thank Bel, with doors that may help in this instance.

FaRT roll:

Or not, missed by 3%!

Martin
Agreed. And to be closer to get more light if we need, the MU looks at his torch.

Martin and Iacchus are good to go.

N'Rogara joins in the fighting retreat!

Mmmm, maybe not so much!

Martin

Methodical, the magic user agrees, still holding his torch up.

Kassim shrugs, sooner, later, earned or not, he nods toward the collapsed tower, you are indebted to a Shemite, and he smiles, you did withhold thanks. Captive, yes I was, I’m not sure who my captors were. I expected to wake up and Asterion be nearby, I’m guessing he wasn’t able to finish his quest.

Kassim

Can it be, he stretches a finger out as if to poke the floating torch, did you find the treasures of Asterion's ancestors? Kassim stops short of actually touching the torch. Where are we? Last I knew, I was at the edge of the Wilderness?

Got my Open Doors d6 locked and loaded... just in case.

Martin holds the torch high, to help with the search. Iacchus aids in the searching.

Chin up, next time maybe!

Goodness, says N'Rogara , we are going to have to release him and deal with the consequences. Then whispering to Jaelen , can you do try the turn back undead thing with a cell door between you and Dragoslav before we open the cell? That may help us shed some light on what he is, or isn't? Then agai...

Surviving is half the battle... or something.
Gelatinous Cube is a nice classic monster. Good fun!

Ah, but have you played at other sites? Dragonsfoot, the now defunct AliveAndOutofPrint, SmolderingWizard, etc etc etc

Bel! So it's true, the cloaked man attempts to rub the grit from his face, and absentmindedly twirls his moustache, Asterion is gone? He was a good and stalwart companion, it is sad if it is so.

It's likely. Of course your name rings a bell (other than from any Elric books I've read) but I always assume that's because I'm on way too many D&D forums... and one Jethro Tull forum

Glad to be on board all!

The big GC was in the passage between the two rooms?
Martin and Iacchus
Agreed, says the MU, staying to the right seems a good way to move forward.

Gotcha. See that now. Then the Ranger squints really hard as he looks around

Hmm, our trap might be an undead trap? N'Rogara asks quietly to the others. He looks up as far as he can see, and down the passage. It's narrower, but the same as the other dungeons we just came from?
I'm not a betting man, but my guess is we'll see a lot of cells in a lot of passages here.
