D&D: Horror on the Hill: Beginnings

[train]

(will check the door, check for sounds, and open when ready...)

"Well, what's behind door number one..."

 

[Spiderman]

Nothing on the door, nor no sounds behind it.

Opening it, you find a 10' square room that's empty except for a pair of wooden bunks.

 

[BigBlue]

Search the room.

 

[train]

(agreed checking under bunks, etc. then proceed back down the hall...)

"Well - even no action is sometimes interesting.."

 

[Spiderman]

Cugel finds a loose stone in the south wall near one of the bunks.

 

[BigBlue]

Check for traps around it, then see what's behind it - does it appear to be a mechanism (for a secret door) - or a hiding place?

"Nice Work Cugel!"

 

[Spiderman]

No traps... checking behind it reveals a small passage, about 10' wide and 5' high heading south. The passage looks rough-hewn, not like the rest of the level that you've seen so far.

 

[BigBlue]

Let's block the door w/ the bunks and go down the passage.

 

[Spiderman]

Blocking the door with the bunks, you duck/crouch down (except Rondo) and head down the passage. It goes for about 20', turning slightly southeast, then ends abruptly.

 

[BigBlue]

Search the entire passage...

 

[Spiderman]

This time, Si'Nat finds a loose block in the wall straight ahead...

 

[train]

(I don't know if that is a good thing or not... get us all the way in here and possibly have a trap...)

"Well guys - in case this is a trap, be ready to get out of here..."

(check behind it, move, it, etc..)

 

[Spiderman]

Checking behind it reveals a passage going northeast-southwest, whose "structure" is back to the "regular" form (of the type of the room and passages before it; not the hand-hewn one that the secret passage seems to be made of).

 

[train]

"hmm... What say we gents... SouthWest?..."

 

[Spiderman]

Si'Nat takes the the silence behind him as assent. You head southwest for about 30' and it turns south. You go 20' when you come to a 20' wide opening to the west leading to a huge room with torches. The passage continues south.

 

[Oversoul]

"Shall we investigate the room?"

 

[Mooseman]

I'll be right behind you, well at least behind someone.

 

[BigBlue]

Patrick

Yeah, we'll cautiously investigate the room. I don't like all the unknown behind us... Be careful cautious one, or you may be attacked from the rear.

And I don't want to cause strife, but if you get us into trouble by fleeing a battle, you'll be on your own from my standpoint.

 

[train]

"Aye - let's search it..."

 

[TomB]

Rondo continues to bring up the rear, being careful to watch for enemies (or really anything) sneaking up from behind...
