Killilli’s Dragon Heist

"Well, there's that. But the tool of a chest is to hold all your wealth in a place like this, yeah?" Aldrik takes out a silver piece and flicks it at the chest.

The silver piece bounces of the chest with a “ping” before hitting the floor and rolling into a corner behind it.

Cico listens to the echoes of the 'ping' for a moment. Then he walks into the room and over to the painting of the chests. He looks at all of them carefully, looking for any key holes, or other clues.

Perception: 5 

The chests on the wall seem just seem to be open chests, nothing other than the teeth stands out at you. 

Anyone going to try the chest, leave and head down the unexplored alley, something else? Edvord’s detect magic comes up blank in this room

"I don't like the idea of a chest with teeth. Only thing worse would be a commode with teeth." While Cico searches over the painting, Aldrik takes one of the darts from his pack, and flicks it at the chest.

Attack: 8 Damage: 7

The dart flies into the wood of the chest, splinters flying out around it as it pierces in and lodges itself in the grain.

Aimee cleans the poo off the chest (with magic),

"Nope! Sorry Lyss!"

She claps for Aldi's attack.

"You hit it, good work! Good for sticking to the bathroom theme too!"

She raises her hand to blast the chest and asks,

"Should I blast it too? Maybe just the teeth?"

Cico blinks his eyes several times. All the chests and all those teeth just turn into a blur in front of him. He can't make out anything.

He shakes his head then goes over to the wall with the three blue words.

"This tool with," Cico says. "A puzzle maybe? Some words missing? Or literally use this tool?"

He examines the blue words themselves, looking for any sort of trigger, like what they saw in the other hallway.

Perception: 19  

Aimee sits on the floor and yawns while Cico inspects, lowering her blasting hand.

Edvord tugs at his beard before relaying that his extra-sensory abilities are not picking up any magical auras, "But that might not mean anything... there still could be more mundane dangers at play. Perhaps the answer--or the true test--lies within the chests." Edvord curses for not having any magical spells ready to safely open one of the chests. "Perhaps we just need to bite the arrow--as they say--and just try to open one."

Edvord then walks up and attempts to pry the chest open from a safe distance with his arcane staff.

Aimee perks up now that someone is doing something.

The chest is unlocked, and opens easily revealing a mound of coins and a couple of trinkets. Before you can get a closer look though, it seems as if the ceiling is rushing towards you. Is the floor moving up, or the ceiling falling down, you can’t tell. 

As the ceiling finally hits you all, you don’t feel the instant crushing you expected - just a stickiness as you find yourselves stuck to the now collapsed ceiling. 

Mimic initiative 10

All in the room are grappled by the mimic. Roll initiative :)

Aimee initiative: 22

((And entire room mimic? Nice.))

"Weee!"

Aimee, still sitting blasts and hexes the ceiling.

Attack: 22 Damage: 11

Hex damage: 1

Lyss Initiative: 6

Edvord Initiative: 17

Just because I will be gone all day today...

When it is Edvord's turn, he will cast booming blade, and use his mobile feat to escape back to saftey if he is able to.

Rapier Booming Blade Attack: 18 Damage: 7

Booming Blade Thunder Damage on Move: 1

Second Attack Roll in case of advantage or disadvantage: 8

Because Edvord is grappled, he uses his bonus action to activate Bladesong.

Kerri initiative: 11

Cico watches the ceiling fall over them and that's when it finally clicks back into place.

"They're not usually this big," Cico says as he gets grappled.

Cico Initiative: 7
