RE: The Dwarven Ruins - DM Surranó - 04-08-2016
OOC - take 20 what? It would take days to take20 each and every 5ft square...
RE: The Dwarven Ruins - Torin - 04-08-2016
OOC - take20 the heaps, interesting things e. g. gargoyle head, ... Etc
RE: The Dwarven Ruins - DM Surranó - 04-08-2016
Digging into the heaps shows that they are fertile mounds of composted food. Gnome and dwarf manage to unearth six packages rolled up in half-decomposed canvas. These must have been dwarven iron rations in their time.
The gargoyle head proves to be false; actually the whole wall section is false and as the two realise it they can see through the figment that became translucent in their eyes. Beyond is another passage, spanning west to east, but most exciting in the view is what looks like a stone gateway right in front of the illusory wall. The frame of the gateway is adorned by seven symbols and the Dethek (dwarven) rune for "2" on the head.
While it looks pretty much like any gateway dwarves would build it is walled up.
(OOC - adding image to map; will try to upload a larger image here later)

Torin goes cautiously through in this illusory wall and first takes a look to left and right. If there is nothing interest then he starts to examine this stone door (ooc - take20).).
RE: The Dwarven Ruins - DM Surranó - 04-08-2016
OOC - oops I'm busted
Anyway please refrain from using spoilers. If you know the game inside out, though, that's acceptable-- expect some tweaks here and there (you might have encountered some already)

"While you search let me speed this up a little."
Portho pulls out his wand and speaks the arcane word, triggering Detect Secret Doors and begins to study the gateway to learn it's trigger.After three rounds of studying the gateway to learn it's triggers ge will turn to scan the hallway first east then west.
RE: The Dwarven Ruins - DM Surranó - 04-08-2016
Alas, the gateway does not register as a secret door. It's either not a "passage, door or opening" or does not qualify as "specifically constructed to escape detection". Or neither.
RE: The Dwarven Ruins - Portho Nihilbuck - 04-11-2016
[OoC that accounts for the first 3 rounds of the detect secret doors, does he sense anything when he turns east and west? The spell has 7 more rounds.]
RE: The Dwarven Ruins - DM Surranó - 04-11-2016
No secret doors detected
