Yon Shady Soldier chimes up, "You know honestly, I don't really even know these guys too well. And we keep having to wade through all sorts of nasty things, meeting up with strange kids and what not, and what 'ave I got to show for it. Not very much thank you. Not much at all. Truth is, the watching and not let passing thing was a much better gig. I mean I even got to say me line over and over. Got good at it really. In fact, I'm still in a bit of practice. Throw it out now and again you know," TBK looks the spectre in the eye and throws out the old "None Shall Pass!" He pauses for just a moment for that little extra dramatic effect. "Oh yeah, that feels good it does. Say mate, since you've been having to stick around here and not really get to see to much of the world, and what with me missing me old no-pass spot. Maybe you just take a few hours off, go grab a nice meal or something and let me keep an eye out for you? These blokes are nothing for it, I'll have them quaking in their shoes," and he bows his chest up in front of Burt and the gang bellowing out, "None Shall Pass!" He pats the spectre on the back. "Yeah it's all feeling fresh now. Go on then, grab a meal, maybe a pint too. I'd take a sandwich if you could bring one back. I've got this door, no worries. Glad to do it and the rest would do your mind good." (Deception: 24)

Why are you guys so combat-averse? Well, you can't charm it but apparently it's gullible as ****. (His Insight roll is a flat d20 so he can't win)
"Oh boy! THE Black Knight? Minding my spot? Hot diggity dog! You try-hard cutpurses won't be passing anything for a long time! Pity about yiz! OK, I really appreciate this BeeK, and I promise I won't be long. Is the taco place in Thundertree still open? That place was the best."
And with that he's gone, leaving you in a very empty tomb with a rusty door that None Shall Pass (tm)
The BeeK does his duty, but without too much luster, "None shall pass, yada, yada, yada," and he turns and walks through the door behind Ira, adding "So, I get this feeling we should do more slaughtering? Just some voice inside my head. Do you ever get that feeling? You and I are good though, no worries there."

"I like the cut of your jib sir, helping keep a good man honest! Indeed, I shall lead and keep my promise that None Shall Pass." He looks down at the halfling, "Of course, I'm fairly certain he meant the door, but let's go with the letter of the conversation. I know I feel better about it all now. Though taco's would be good too."

Having outwitted a corpse, our heroes progress through the unlocked rusted door. Beyond lies another square room, twenty feet by twenty feet, containing a stone coffin. That is, a coffin made of stone, not a pebble with the flu. The ceiling is cracked, allowing roots and water into the chamber from multiple points, and while little collects here there is an air of dampness which is probably how the pebble caught the cold in the first place, poor bugger. At the foot of the coffin is a rusty iron chest.
We really really killed those wolves, not that I ever connected until they were dead. Plus we carved them up to be eaten. So I'd say on average we are pretty slaughterry. It just seemed like bad form to up and attack a friend and admirer of Sir Inks-a-lot. Even if he was on the dead side already. Plus, if I'm being honest, I expect the specter might have done the slaughtering, what with almost none of us having the magic weapons that work on ghosties and suchlike.
Darkman my man, did you ever consider teaching engineering electromagnetics? "None shall pass" is the feeling the students get. You could be good at that.
Greg will wheel into the coffin room, without passing BK because respect, and go to the head of the coffin, not by the rustbox, wish it (the coffin) gesundheit, and begin the examining
How bout some dm consistentcy....you were just complaining in the other thread about us being too murdery!
Burt stalks forward, grumbling under his breath about dms and their expectations, ensures that he passes by BK, and opens the chest. (Chests being something he's very familiar with)
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Back and ready to DM and chew bubblegum. And I'm alllll outta bubblegum.
No wait a minute, that big purple tongue is made of stuffed cloth. What kind of sick bastard (or dare I say Machiavellian genius) puts a chest mimic mimic in their own tomb?
The tongue is swollen with centuries of damp, and useless for anything but grossing out your team mates (though if you steam out any potential fungal growths it would make a great pillow for sleeping during the third trimester. Wait did I put this pillow into the wrong game. What a rookie mistake / act of Machiavellian genius!)
Removing the pillow tongue, underneath in the shallow chest all you can see are the soaked remains of a book. Flicking through it, in any place where the pages have not already fused together or slaked away it's illegible. You estimate its value at "**** you, nunberry!"
Well I think sex with the DM might be VERY valuable, so Stumps adds the worthless book to his inventory. I will add stuff like this to the shared doc in case we ever discovered items that turn out to be foreshadowing or puzzle pieces later. Also, Greg can carry an insane amount of stuff (let's invest in saddlebags once we have anything to invest) even if he does have to rescue midgets movement-challenged allies in retreat situations.
They would not bother to craft a cartographic masterpiece napkin depicting Qwest Mebbe for a two room tomb with a ruined book. There must be more. Shall we open the coffin, or move it? Greg asks Odd that it hasn't been disturbed, coffin always disturbs me, especially at night

The cushion comes away from the bottom of the chest with a hollow scrape. It's large and bulky and protrudes slightly from the top of your pack when you try to cram it in but this has the added benefit of making you look like an adventurer mimic.
The lid of the coffin is extremely heavy, you'll need help to shift it.

(Ooc : two points on that :
1. Believe it or not you're playing a published module. That's why theres so little ham in this cave. If you found the soggy valueless book disappointing, tweet Crawford!
2. Have you not paid any attention to what's gone before? So far the party has accrued massive debts to both the Greg-wagon maker and the local sliced ham vendor, and has found approximately no treasure at all despite a fair amount of murder and ransacking. It's *exactly* the kind of thing I'd do! )
Iradon could fit inside but not close the lid fully, it's surprisingly shallow. If you broke the lid off, mounted a tent on the top and put the whole affair on Greg's back you could pretend to be a maharaja?

You see nothing that's obviously a threat but it's clear the the coffin has remained undisturbed for quite some time.

The lid of the chest screeches open as seeming eons of rust flake away from the stubborn hinges. Inside you find.... A giant purple tongue!
Zomg! Roll init!
