Thank you, I was really inspired to new heights. I tried to communicate telepathically with them but it was like there was nothing there, like it was an empty vessel or a shell. Very strange.

As Tibold takes the mask off the Stranger he sees that she was a woman of very plain features. Whilst her face is relaxed in death, there are many lines on it, suggesting that she scowled a lot. Her eyes are also milky.
"Hold on to that mask," Thromkor suggests, "in case it has some magical properties." The dragonborn then looks intently at Cole. His eyes move back and forth between Cole's as the halfling looks back. After about 15 seconds, Thromkor asks, "Well?"
The mask is made of thinly beaten gold and shaped to look like the face of a leering Gargoyle. Unlike most normal masks, it has no eye-holes. There are no inscriptions or runes on it of any form.
Inside the chest are a large number of sambar and scattered through them are a number (read 10's of) suns. There is also a swatch of cowhide wrapped around something.
Thromkor whirls around to look at Cole with wide eyes. He then continues thumping along.
As he's opening the chest ...
"Any other tricks you might have up your sleeve we should know about, halfling?" Beholding the sambars and suns, the dragonborn clucks his tongue. He reaches in and hefts the cowhide-wrapped item and carefully unwraps it.
Thromkor puts back the cowhide-wrapped turquoises and closes the lid to the chest. "I, for one, would rather not weigh myself down with a bounty of Earther treasure just yet. Shall we leave this here and come back for it later?"
OOC: Did Thromkor look in the desk? If not, he does.

Thromkor turns away and begins searching the room. He mumbles to himself, "Telepathy ..."
Perception: 22
Tibold shrugs and turns away.
And that's all I have to say about that.
Thromkor you find under the desk a large wooden chest. Next to the door is a key hanging on hook.
DM - Stopping a god in his tracks
Thromkor collects the key and the chest. He does what he can to check the chest for traps.
Investigation: 4
The chest is rather large - say 3 feet by 2 feet and very heavy. It does not appear to be trapped in any way.
DM - Stopping a god in his tracks
Thromkor opens the chest.
Inside the chest are a large number of sambar and scattered through them are a number (read 10's of) suns. There is also a swatch of cowhide wrapped around something.

Inside his head Thromkor hears
Useful for silent communication wouldn’t you say, or to try and find out more and catch people off guard?

Cole stares at the mask and turns it over in his hands to look at both sides. He thinks for a moment then Puts it on

Suddenly the room goes very dark for Cole.

Prior to looking through the chest ...
Thromkor whirls around to look at Cole with wide eyes. He then continues thumping along.
As he's opening the chest ...
"Any other tricks you might have up your sleeve we should know about, halfling?" Beholding the sambars and suns, the dragonborn clucks his tongue. He reaches in and hefts the cowhide-wrapped item and carefully unwraps it.
Inside the cowhide - carefully wrapped - are 12 turquoises (worth approx 10 dragons each). Sorry Sambars in post #779 should read shards.

OOC: WHAT?! :)
Thromkor puts back the cowhide-wrapped turquoises and closes the lid to the chest. "I, for one, would rather not weigh myself down with a bounty of Earther treasure just yet. Shall we leave this here and come back for it later?"
OOC: Did Thromkor look in the desk? If not, he does.
"So far, when we have left areas, other people have come to them before us and changed things around," Tibold replies.
And that's all I have to say about that.
Cole removes the mask again and puts it in his pack.
Tibold is right, anything we want we should take with us now, no garuntees it will be here later or that we will return this route.
