Tomb of Horrors (Desert)

Grexx will approach the first mural he comes to on the west wall.  He will try to see if he can find anything protruding or seeming out of place.

Perception:  8

Grexx checks out the Gold sphere. It's being held up high by a human male. Looks normal

Grexx will touch the gold sphere.  If nothing happens, Grexx will touch the man.

The man grabs your hand.

No just kidding, they're just paintings.

Grexx will walk down the small hallway that bends off to the west.  Grexx will attempt to look for dangers in the hallway.

Perception:  16

Grexx you've been in that hallway before it leads to the statue of the gargoyle with the broken arm, you don't see any dangers

Does the archway light up when Velkyn walks towards it?

it sure does

When Velkyn approaches the misty arch it glows first Left OLIVE, then Keystone RUSSET,  then Right CITRON (not my colors, from the module)

"Can I come out of here yet?!" as Barry quietly knocks on the door

Dell touched the last set in the order they lit up. So Velkyn will do that with this set. "Come on Barry!"

When you touch the stones, they light the same colours you saw when they flashed. But after you finish the order, the mist remains.

 Dell stands in the hallway taking in the sight of the various wall paintings and colored globes. "I have to admit," the rogue muses aloud, "whoever designed this place had a sick and twisted mind. My old man always used to tell me to beware of them artsy types... now I know."

Noticing the colored spheres and the flashing archway stones, he watches carefully as Velkyn pushes each stone in sequence, according to their colors, just as they did in the other room. When nothing happens a cynical, slop-sided grin appears on his face as he shakes his head and drawls: " Yep, that figures... Of course. That would have been way too easy to have the same trick working twice, uh ? Methanar's Frilly Stockings, some of them sorcerers really have a lot of time on their hands, don't they ?". He points at the globes for the rest of the group to see: "So, if the actual stones won't work, who wants to bet that the globes will do the trick, uh ? AND who wants to double-bet that the bloody things are trapped, as well...?".

As he scans the room to find the right-colored globes the skinny, somewhat battered-looking crook mutters to himself: "I should really ask for a bonus share of the loot for extra working hours... bloody traps and magic bolts, left and right...! Never liked spellcasters. Or artists. Now we get one crazy feller that's intent on piling both up, hoo-bloody-ray...!"

And with this last, venomous aside, he strutts towards the green globe and looks intently at it, before turning to the rest of his companions:

"So, do I push it, whatcha all think ? It ain't exactly OLIVE , but close enough, I reckon...". As he asks the question he can't repress a mischievous, somewhat macabre smile.

Investigation

23

The green ball is being held on the back of a very large humanoid creature. Nothing about it seems out of place. It's just paint on plaster.

Grexx points at the Archway, "This is it!  This is the one that took my clothes when I went through the mist."  Grexx then points down the hallway, "Down that hallway is the 4 armed gargoyle that I could not get to do anything.  If any of you want to give a try, feel free"

DM:  Can we have Riynor cast Detect Magic in this room with the spheres?

Riynor casts Detect Magic and sees the arch glow again. And also the Red and Black spheres glow with Illusion magic.

OOC:  Would you say the spheres are within 120 ft of each other?  If so...

Grexx will cast Dispel Magic at 3rd level.

Both the Spheres disappear, revealing they are both crawlspace a heading in different directions.

Grexx says, "Ah!  Now we are making progress!"  Grexx walks over to the sphere that was once red and say, "Shall we?"

Grexx crawls into the tunnel.

Perception:  14

It goes about 15 feet and then ends in a wooden door that pushes outwards

I try to use Gust to open from about 10ft away.
