RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - Selina Parcellus - 02-16-2022 [[Not currently looking for more clues. I'm thinking about it, but I want those two to have their chance to speak.]] RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - Kubo - 02-17-2022 Kubo failed his check, do any of his dwarven racial skills help here, he will study the lock to see if he can determine anything about its mechanism, (ie. Mechanical or arcane nature) perhaps he can craft a stone key.

The Keyhole in the door is just symbolic. RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - Crozar the Sunspot - 02-17-2022 Crozar says, "If the key is symbolic and opens with knowledge, the most powerful knowledge is that of magic. I could throw a weak lightning spell to see if lightning is the key when it was the defense as well. What do you all think?" RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - Selina Parcellus - 02-17-2022 Selina shakes her head. "I do not believe that attacking the gate will open it. Magic is also problematic in this land due to the Torque and its chaotic effects." RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - Kubo - 02-17-2022 Arcane things are not in Kubo's boathouse at all RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - Kubo - 02-17-2022 Not sure how Kubo can help right now? RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - GM Marvel - 02-17-2022 (02-17-2022, 01:52 PM)Kubo Wrote: Not sure how Kubo can help right now? [OoC: I would not have created a riddle that only one person could solve. Everything you need to solve this is solvable by anyone in the party. You don't need a magic spell or a weapon to hack the door down. You just need to remember that this is riddle so you just have to figure out what the riddle is talking about. For example... Thirty white horses on a red hill First they champ, Then they stamp, Then they stand still. What's the answer? Teeth! No magic or weapon required. RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - Selina Parcellus - 02-17-2022 [[First we need to figure out the riddle itself...unless I missed something and it was already revealed. This thing all things devours Birds, Beasts, Trees, Flowers Gnaws iron, bites steel Grinds hard stones to meal Slays king, ruins town Beats high mountains down. Bilbo got freaking lucky.]] RE: New Crobuzon & the World Beyond - GM Marvel - 02-17-2022 (02-17-2022, 03:48 PM)Selina Parcellus Wrote: [[First we need to figure out the riddle itself...unless I missed something and it was already revealed. [[I personally hate riddles and I rarely use them. When I do I always let players make some dice rolls for some clues because most players just don't have a Int/Wis 20 in real life. But I have to also be careful that I don't give too much away. As soon as one of you asks for their clue or asks for a clue of an NPC, I will give it to you.]] [[The riddle itself is: "Knowledge is your key." Nothing else has been revealed. I think you guys might be thinking too hard. I would start by throwing thoughts out there. Don't be afraid to say something. Something you say might be correct or lead someone else to the correct answer.] |
