[IC] Black Hills Caves: Exploration Day 2

[Eva Morningtide]

Before Eva tries the door, Reawyn holds up a hand and says.. let me check the doors first for traps, then back off and you try opening them from a distance.

If he stopped her in time he will search the nearest door  Perception (trapfinding+6)

[ooc - Sorry, of course, I thought he has already searched the first door too but not, you are right.  "He finds no trap up to the first large door."  ]

[GM Marvel]

[Sorry for the delay.  Work has been crazy because we're in a staffing crisis.  Then, due to a scheduling 'forgetting' that a relief staff was working in a locked down location, they scheduled them to work in my location.  Exposing myself and others to COVID!  When the mistake was discovered they said it should be ok because they 'feel' it's low risk.  But they shouldn't be making those kinds of mistakes or presumptions when we're over a year into the pandemic!!   So yeah, that's the kind of stressful B.S. going on.  ]  

This door - at the zig-zag - does not appear to be trapped.  It does have a red colored panel similar to the panel in the exploding room.

[Reawyn]

Reawyn will step back and ask Eva to do the Mage Hand trick with a card, to see if she can get it to work.

and she does

[GM Marvel]

She swipes the card a couple of times and after a couple of failures the door slides up into the ceiling. 


The air in this room seems to buzz and hum with energy. Strips of glowing rectangles light the room from above, while strange flickering windows line the east and west walls. A large glass-topped circular table sits in the middle of the room. To the north sits a large metal desk covered with blinking lights, while a humming pillar of purple-and-black metal stands nearby, its sides flashing with tendrils of violet energy. A single golden panel flashes with a soft but incessant light on the side of this pillar. A thick layer of dust coats everything, diffusing the lights shining from the various surfaces, and many of the machines seem to be damaged, cracked, or otherwise ruined.

[Gurkagh]

Gurkagh yawns.. all this checking and rechecking he understands, but he feels useless . he volunteers to go first.

[Reawyn]

Reawyn shakes his head and first checks the doorway, then methodically moves into the room, searching ecah 10' n front of him as he goes. Are the windows really windows, or viewscreens?

[OoC map update?]

The flickering 'windows' are view screens but they currently are not showing any pictures.  Reawyn takes his time searching the room and doesn't find any traps.

[Signature updated.  Map also placed below.]

[Cin-Ezra Oovalli]

Cin stands guard in the hallway using a ready action to shoot any thing that appears aggressive.

E.S.S.A.C.C.U.S-10 takes up a defensive position with his shuriken ready to hurl.
