Varinth, you can tell that they're magical, and you know that usually spending an hour or so examining most magical items will reveal their nature, but beyond that? They're boots.
I wouldn’t mind a short rest, but we should stay on our toes. Could be more of these ghouls around.He kicks one of the formerly undead creatures. Or worse...
You gather in the former barracks to discuss whether to take a rest or not.
In considering your onward journey, there are probably four main options - the door to the south of the room you are in, the stairs leading upwards to the north, the passageway far to the west leading north, and the passageway leading south from outside your room.
Incantis, you cast Identify as you touch the boots, and immediately your mind is filled with images of people jumping across wide crevasses and racing through forests at night. These are Boots of Striding and Springing.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Dekhan examines the slash from the Ghouls claws for a moment medicine7I can continue on if that’s what we’d like to do.
As far as the boots are concerned, I’d say Scupper or Strix should have them. Unless you guys want a jumping tank RKO’ing outta nowhere in which case Dek will take them. 😂
Varinth, you move to the southern door. As you do so, you hear a strange yet familiar rush of noise, a swelling booming sound, the same as you heard when you first entered this cave. It rises and becomes almost deafening, and then passes by and fades into quiet once more.
Listening at the door, you hear nothing coming from beyond it.
Incantus has the boots right now. I think last I recall, Strix was holding the ring whilst you two figured it out but I don't remember anyone attuning to it.
Minor illusion : footless mini Strix being attack by boot mimic. Performance 4

It's not bad. You feel for the plight of footless Strix, his anguish engraved in every line on his face.
Varinth asks to see the boots.
My Master in Neverwinter had a few books about magical items. May I have a look?
Arcana: 7
Apparently these boots were not included
Varinth, you can tell that they're magical, and you know that usually spending an hour or so examining most magical items will reveal their nature, but beyond that? They're boots.
Strix, haha. Is that why you don't where more armor? Worried it'll attack you when you're not looking?
Vaz, let's take a short rest and get our shite together. You can figure out what those boots do.
Incantis also pulls his pearl out of his cloak. "I always have identify."
Incantis, half-elf warlock (great old one) 4/bard 1 ● Thorok Earthhand, hill dwarf mountain druid 6/grave cleric 2
Cragmyre Ironseed, earth genasi ancestral barbarian 3 ● Cyrus Natriallae, aquatic half-elf warlock of the deep 3

Varinth will not fight for the right to identify the boots and will hand them to Inky.
Incantis graciously takes the boots, speaking into Varinth’s mind, “don’t worry, I’ll keep you in mind if they’re magic.”
To the party, aloud, “I’m in very good shape at the moment, I’m in no need of rest. I say we press onward, or I could defend those who do.”

While they’re discussing, Incantis casts identify on the boots.

Varinth will go to the door to the south and listen

As much fun as they sound I can double my jump 4 times per short rest so if Scupper needs them, take them.
Having said that, with step of the wind *and* the boots I'd be jumping 90 feet which is hilarious, so I may ask to borrow them once in a while ;)
Does Faerun have a subway system? That sounds like a train description

My that sounds fun...if everyone's ok with it...I'd love my first magic item :) and since I'm small...it means I can keep up with y'all
PS...who's wound up with the ring of protection? That's not still floating around unused is it?
Varinth will hold up his little flame to the door and inspect it (the door not the flame). Investigation: 18
Mr Scupper, wanna check this thing out? I gather it wouldn't have traps coz o' the dead things but ya never know..
I don't have it... i don't think.
Dek doesn’t have the ring... but wouldn’t mind the ac boost for tanking purposes if no one is using it...

Strix took the ring of protection.
Varinth, the old wooden door is untrapped, as far as you can determine.
