Starker:”Ah, that looks promising. Though you might be bored watching me spend hundreds of your remaining heartbeats yet again performing the Identify ritual, surely you agree that such a pretty thing belongs around one of our throats, provided it is not an auto-garrotic asphyxiator.”
Kragen looking to the group. "We have opened Chest 1 and 2, 3 we do not have the traditional key for and it appears 4 has something non-traditional, hemispherical", "Before we rest, should we attempt to open the remaining?"
To Xymox "Master Bard, care to use your fine lock capabilities on Chest 3 since we do not have a Key that works?"
"Any ideas on what would fit into the 4th chests opening?" Kragen pulls the gem which is pulsating found in the Box in the Altar room and looks to see if it would fit into Chest 4's opening?
Xymox is successful in opening the lock. The chest is now unlocked.
Kragen examines the ruby from the silver box on the altar. It is not shaped in a complimentary way to the hemispherical depression in the front of chest 4.
Starker:”It gives the attuned wearer the ability to resist wintry aittacks and freezing conditions, as well as allowing the wearer to attack with a bolt of freezing magic damaging and slowing the victim. Finally, once a day it allows the wearer to emcase an enemy in ice, holding them immobile.”
Starker:”It gives the attuned wearer the ability to resist wintry aittacks and freezing conditions, as well as allowing the wearer to attack with a bolt of freezing magic damaging and slowing the victim. Finally, once a day it allows the wearer to emcase an enemy in ice, holding them immobile.”
The Revenant Seed fits snugly into the depression. The entire thing begins to glow a dull red and you hear a click. The seed is attached to the lock now.
Starker:”Unfortunate. I was going to plant that, raise it, and then kill it and make tea for Cyrus from the leaves. Perhaps it will become dislodged when the chest is opened and empty.”
While pulling out the breastplate there is a loud CLUNK. You see a 6” iron disc settle into the bottom of the chest. It looks like the same alloy as the amulet of Kyton Starker has. There are inscriptions on the side facing up.
Starker:”Ah, that looks promising. Though you might be bored watching me spend hundreds of your remaining heartbeats yet again performing the Identify ritual, surely you agree that such a pretty thing belongs around one of our throats, provided it is not an auto-garrotic asphyxiator.”
<Starts the ritual to Identify the pendant.>
Starker gasps:”This is extraordinary! Though it does require attunement, it would no doubt be worth it. It is a Frostvein Pendant!”
"And what, my friend, is a Frostvein Pendant??"
While listening for a response, Kragen spends a magic action to recover a third level spell slot using the Pearl of Power.
Kragen looking to the group. "We have opened Chest 1 and 2, 3 we do not have the traditional key for and it appears 4 has something non-traditional, hemispherical", "Before we rest, should we attempt to open the remaining?"
To Xymox "Master Bard, care to use your fine lock capabilities on Chest 3 since we do not have a Key that works?"
"Any ideas on what would fit into the 4th chests opening?" Kragen pulls the gem which is pulsating found in the Box in the Altar room and looks to see if it would fit into Chest 4's opening?
Xymox walks over to said chest and attempts to open it. (Rolls 18 dex check).
Xymox is successful in opening the lock. The chest is now unlocked.
Kragen examines the ruby from the silver box on the altar. It is not shaped in a complimentary way to the hemispherical depression in the front of chest 4.
Starker:”It gives the attuned wearer the ability to resist wintry aittacks and freezing conditions, as well as allowing the wearer to attack with a bolt of freezing magic damaging and slowing the victim. Finally, once a day it allows the wearer to emcase an enemy in ice, holding them immobile.”
Nice!
How large is the depression? Radius roughly?
2” diameter
About the size of a walnut.
The size if our revenant seed? If so, Starker tries it in the lock with the hemispherical depression.
The Revenant Seed fits snugly into the depression. The entire thing begins to glow a dull red and you hear a click. The seed is attached to the lock now.
Starker:”Unfortunate. I was going to plant that, raise it, and then kill it and make tea for Cyrus from the leaves. Perhaps it will become dislodged when the chest is opened and empty.”
<opens the chest>
You see a Mithril Breastplate set of armor inside.
Starker:”I am no expert, but I expect this could be useful to one of you?”
"That is a wonderful set of armor," Yartol states. "Good protection, yet light," he says looking to Trolkarl and Kragen.
Starker tries to remove seed from lock once the chest is emptied.
"I prefer my armor a little stouter, but that is very fine craftsmanship."
While pulling out the breastplate there is a loud CLUNK. You see a 6” iron disc settle into the bottom of the chest. It looks like the same alloy as the amulet of Kyton Starker has. There are inscriptions on the side facing up.
Looking at Xymox and smiling. “Well done Bard!” In reference to picking the lock on Chest 3 “are you willing to open it?”
”allow me to check the disc for an ill aura before you examine and provide expert analysis, Mage Starker”
Kragen reaches into the chest, grabs the disc and turns it over, looking at the inscription and the craftsmen ship.
