As Lemon gets fed up with the darts, he dashes to the other side, causing several darts to shoot out from the sides. Six of the stinging darts find their mark.
These numbers are not altered in any way. six con saves are required for poison damage. DC:15. A save is quarter damage, failed save is half damage because of resistance.
As a means of controlling her burbling temper, Nenne sidles around the wall to peek at the corridor. Seeing no immediate threat and more winding passageway, she returns to the rest of the group.
The stone door seems to spin easily on a center post and is devoid of any features. It does not readily look like it is trapped. Allister opens the door gently to find a shaft of natural light spilling from a tiny square hole in the ceiling onto a carved stone pedestal. An ornate stone cube rests on its surface. Bits of rain water runs down the hole and onto the ceiling before dripping to the floor.
„Guys, I think I found the next cube. It’s just sitting there on a pedestal. That is too easy, isn’t it?“ Allister carefully steps inside and look around. „Wait a second...“ After a few seconds of scratching his beard thoughtfully he says I should shave that off.“ He then goes to the cube and grabs it
The interior of the room is decorated with random carvings of almiraj creatures of varying sizes. The carvings overlap, creating uneven surfaces all over the room. The cube comes off easy and nothing in the room changes when Allister takes it.
"This entire temple feels like a trap," Nenne agrees with Allister. "Then again, if the almiraj was as benevolent and righteous as the story Boosey read us indicated, perhaps innocence and virtue are indeed rewarded here. Though I still find it difficult to believe such a place can exist amongst the evil that is Omu."
She tries to peek through the open door from her position down the hall. "Are you well, Allister?"
„I guess so. Maybe we were just lucky or this place is unexpected, that is peaceful, as the writing said. Should we get back the same way we came? No need to risk losing Tymoraˋs blessing so far.“
The group returns to the place with the tiles, and without a second thought Boosey just walks straight down the second file, feeling another rush of energy as he passes over the rabbit tile. Reaching the other end he shouts to Lemon, "I hope you're not going to try and become a pin cushion again?"
"Bah, twas tickles gnome! But aye, these darts are now but annoyance. Ye will see me shape into a creature, and skip past all this... nausiance."
His body began to shrink, his eyes once more split into eight red orbs, and black hairs sprouted from his body and replaced his blonde hairs. Once he was a tiny spider, the only recognizable difference between the spider and Lemon was once more... a bald spot on the top of his forehead.
Lemon decides to climb back out of the floor tile hallway as a spider and everyone else returns the way they came. Once everyone is safely outside, Orvex seems overjoyed and excitedly asks, "Now what!?"
Nenne shakes her head at the strangely auspicious experience they just had and says, "Well, we could investigate the temple behind our camp. Though I am highly doubtful we will repeat...whatever just happened."
"An amphitheater?" Sthara's eyes light up. "You mean where they would perform spoken works? That would be quite interesting to see – imagine how it would feel with the players delivering their lines, singing songs and cracking jokes. But it would also provide great advantage to archers if there are more like the Tabaxi we encountered before. However, to the north, I believe there was a cave as well, which would be interesting to see – perhaps another temple with a deeper connection to the earth. I would also be most interested in seeing the temple that rests over the lava."

Between swathes of flying darts, Orvex makes his way across the tiles, shaking his head at the dwarf.
Sthara and Allister don't get very far before they come to another T intersection. No sounds can be heard in the dark hallways.
As Lemon gets fed up with the darts, he dashes to the other side, causing several darts to shoot out from the sides. Six of the stinging darts find their mark.
(21 piercing damage, 5, 7, 8, 8, 10, and 7 poison damage)
These numbers are not altered in any way. six con saves are required for poison damage. DC:15. A save is quarter damage, failed save is half damage because of resistance.

As a means of controlling her burbling temper, Nenne sidles around the wall to peek at the corridor. Seeing no immediate threat and more winding passageway, she returns to the rest of the group.
As Allister sees the walls in front of him he stops „Nenne, Lemon, you hear me? We should stop and get back together.“
The party winds their way along dark corridors until the leading Allister and Sthara come to a non-descript stone door.
Allister takes a closer look at the door. He also draws his dagger, scraping its point over the door to find any cracks
(ooc: or just grabbing handle)
The stone door seems to spin easily on a center post and is devoid of any features. It does not readily look like it is trapped. Allister opens the door gently to find a shaft of natural light spilling from a tiny square hole in the ceiling onto a carved stone pedestal. An ornate stone cube rests on its surface.

Allister has no interest in finding out if the other traps are loaded and follows Boosey´s lead.
"Bah, twas tickles gnome! But aye, these darts are now but annoyance. Ye will see me shape into a creature, and skip past all this... nausiance."

Made you look.
Lemon decides to climb back out of the floor tile hallway as a spider and everyone else returns the way they came. Once everyone is safely outside, Orvex seems overjoyed and excitedly asks, "Now what!?"
Nenne shakes her head at the strangely auspicious experience they just had and says, "Well, we could investigate the temple behind our camp. Though I am highly doubtful we will repeat...whatever just happened."
„We have already walked this far north, I say we keep going north and see what we find.“
Orvex speaks his mind saying, "I have not travelled any farther north. There is a amphitheater that I would love to visit up there off the main road."
"An amphitheater?" Sthara's eyes light up. "You mean where they would perform spoken works? That would be quite interesting to see – imagine how it would feel with the players delivering their lines, singing songs and cracking jokes. But it would also provide great advantage to archers if there are more like the Tabaxi we encountered before.
