Gallia Campaign 1

Gniff perception: 3

(Woooooow)

@ Misty and Gerrack, you both hear talking, laughter, and a mysterious rattling noise coming from the room on your left. You both can hear bubbling and dripping sounds coming from the room on the right.

@ everyone else, you fail to hear anything of note. (OOC: perhaps Misty or Gerrack shush you guys for being too noisy.) (OOC: I don't know about Branch, since he failed to give me a check)

(OOC: @ everyone, tell me what your next move is.)

"Enemies..."  Misty says with a soft whisper back to the group, nodding to the door the laughing voices came from.  "Kitchen, maybe..." She says next, nodding to the other door.  She waits to see what the group plans, but would nod to the enemy door as her pick of which to go through.

“Well let’s go to the room that us the least chatter first. Maybe we can take out another one or two quietly?” Gimble asks.

"The r-r-rattling I hear w-w-worries me," Gerrack admits to the others, nodding at the room producing the sound.  "P-perhaps they have a p-pet s-snake on h-hand... or are t-torturing one for e-entertainment."  His feathers stand up a little straighter.  "O-or more s-skeletons...."

He leans in to the other door, and his eyes widen.  "K-kitchen?  O-or maybe t-t-terrible m-monsters of s-slime and g-g-goo, and o-oily p-pits of d-despair," he adds, ever the optimist.  "W-we should l-look there f-first, m-maybe m--make some n-noise if it's n-nothing and d-draw the g-guards into t-that r-room as a t-trap.  If it's s-s-something, we m-might make n-noise anyways, s-so let's be r-r-ready."

"If that is what you want..."  Misty whispers back, moving to the door with the strange noises.

Speaking low, "I think Gerrack and Gimble are right. Check the quieter choice and if anything try and draw some in."

 (OOC: do you try to open the door?)

Misty opens the door.  She has on her red cloak.

 @ Misty, You try to open the door, and surprisingly it is unlocked. (OOC: assuming you enter the room, read the following), As you enter the room, you can see a rat scurrying across the floor and then out of sight. What is in sight is a large worktable set up with alembics, retorts, distillation coils, and other alchemical devices, all of it stewing and bubbling away. Bookshelves are crowded with sheaves of parchment and strange-looking tomes.

@ everyone else, (OOC: if you follow misty into the room, read the @ Misty part)

(OOC: @ everyone, whats next?)

(OOC: date July 24th. time 2:49 p.m.)

(OOC: quests in the spoiler below)

“Ooh,” Gimble mumbles as he enters. “Maybe a quick look around wouldn’t be so bad, eh, eyeing the devices and thumbing through some of the tomes and parchments.”

Perception 12 

(OOC this is my normal perception roll but how does Artificers Lore play into this if at all?)

 @ Gimble, you are able to tell that the devices are for making/brewing potions. (OOC: if you want additional information give me an arcana check. for the books give me an investigation check.)

@ everyone else, (OOC: if you want the same kind of answers, for the machinery give me an arcana check, for the books and parchments, give me an investigation)

Gimble

Arcana 8
Investigation 21 

 @ Gimble, You aren't sure what kind of potions or the goal of the bandits work with this equipment is, perhaps someone more knowledgeable on the subject could figure it out. You look over the scraps of paper and the books, and you find several notes about the potion brewing, who ever is working on this seems to be frustrated and trying all sorts of things. As for the books, you do not understand what language they are written in, assuming it is a language and not a code or just gibberish.

Casmir enters the room and looks around, checking if there are any other doors in the room. Specifically, where did that rat scamper to, a hole in the wall? Are there other rats?

Perception: 14

He moves away from the door he entered through and tries to position himself so he can see all entrances, if possible. He's not particularly interested in the alchemic paraphernalia.

 @ Casmir, You look around the room, and you can only see the one rat. It appears to be hiding under one of the tables. There are only two ways into this room, the doorway the party entered, and a closed door to the right of the doorway you entered from. You can also see Gimble looking over the alchemy equipment and some books and papers.

Misty moves to the second door, watching it as the others check out this room.  "We ready to move on, I think we can study this stuff once we are done here..."

“Well yeah, but if there would be a potion here to help some wounds that’d be good. But I agree, I can’t seem to distinguish what’s being created here, so yeah, we can move on.”

Gimble takes one last look around the room to see if there was any Thieves Cant easily visible. 

Gerrack doesn't know much about potions,
Arcana: 18

But he is very interested in the books:
Investigation: 10

Sadly, he's a bird brain, though, and all he gets is nervous.

"I-I-I wonder if anyone can ask that rat for information.  Y-you know, like s-s-speaking with a-a-animals?" Gerrack wonders, as he watches Casmir.

@ Misty, You try to open the door and it is unlocked. (OOC: do you try to open the door all the way? and if so do you enter the room?)

 @ Gimble, no signs of thieves cant, not even in the scraps of papers. but you do see three bottles near the alchemy equipment, they might be of value, but you are not sure.

 @ Gerrack, you can't make heads or tails of the alchemy equipment or notes either, but like Gimble, you do see the three bottles.
