A Revealing Read

Ptolmek Skarab felt a sensation overcome his spirit all too familiar to him now. It was brought on by his armor, this much he knew. How his armor could communicate with his soul was still a mystery. However, he knew the tugging at his will would neither cease nor abate until he moved. So he took several steps toward the empty dowel, and inspected the item closely.

(OOC: Successful Action Ptolmek Skarab. While you are not adept at the Search skill, it is clear the dowel on the western wall does not match the other dowels. The empty dowel is a lever, which when pulled down reveals a hidden door.)

Morcant examines the auras spread throughout the room. The faint essence of fire is evident in Ptolmek, and Morcant decides to ask Ptolmek for help bringing light to the room. He follows Ptolmek toward the western wall and diplomatically requests any item which might light the candle.

"Ptolmek, my good sir, as you may have noticed, the room is quite dark. And dank actually," Morcant droned. "Well - it occurs to me that the backpack you acquired may indeed contain..." As Morcant raises a hand to capture Ptolmek's attention, his voice stops short - falling silent without ever leaving his mouth. The southern wall shook once, then moaned. Movement throughout the room stopped immediately as the entire party shifted it's gaze to the slowly sliding bookshelf.

"... a flint and tinder... please."

(OOC: Successful Action Morcant Gunnar, please add 0:05 min to your Diplpomacy Skill and to your Charisma Ability Focus Times.)

OOC: End of Round 6, on to your next turn! You will also notice a couple of significant changes to the game.

1) The grid is now scaled differently. Instead of A-U by 1-21, the map grid was resized to account for the larger four-square block. The scale is now A-J by 1-10. Movement is handled exactly the same as before, but should move quite a bit faster.

2) The Player Tokens have changed scale to match the scale of the map. When more than one player occupies a block, the tokens can be scaled down to the smaller size to show up to four occupants on a single space.

3) Each Game Master post will now take the form of it's own blog entry. With over 63 comments on the first Encounter's post alone - the scrolling was getting to be too much! I am surprised no one complained. Well - it frustrated me - so the plan is to post a fresh blog entry for each Round. The Game Master Summary and any fresh information will be contained in the primary content. Your Turn should continue to be played out in the Comments.

Now back to the Vaults!

Akasha heads south deciding to throw caution to thé Wind she opens thé door before her and heads one square inside. Gazing around at the dimly lit room she utters a weak fire spell and lifts her staff, attempting to produce a small flame that hovers above her worn staff.
Open door and move into room entrance
Weak fire spell.

Mildly pleased his suspicion of the lone dowel had been vindicated, Ptolmek bows- a little stiffly- to Morcant. Rummaging through the old miner's pack he withdraws the old flint and tinder and hands it to Morcant.

Weapon ready, he will join Morcant in peering through the new opening to see if anything is visible to the west beyond the secret bookcase.

"Thank you good sir", acquiring the flint and tinder Morcant uses it to light the candle. He moves to the opening in order to peer through.

1. Light candle
2. Move to D7

Shocked at these new developments and excited to get out of this dark and musty room, Beltin decides to enter this new passageway and try to get a good look at what lies ahead.

Double movement from H5 to F9.

Blackbird McAllister remains close to Akasha's back as she opens the door and examines the chamber beyond. He watches as she utters an incantation and raises her staff. Certain that her spell will work, he boldly steps forward into the room hoping she succeeds and can shed some light on what he just stepped in to.
