Northlands Campaign

Kina stands ready to give the door a good smash, backing up to it and waiting for the word that the rest of the group is prepared. She doesn't just kick it without the goahead.

OOC:  The DM opened the door by mistake, but once the cat is out of the bag ...

Inside the tower, tiny refractions of the candle light can be seen scattered across the littered floor.

Bart waves his candle to make sure the lights are reflecting solely from the candles, or if there is another sorce for the reflections.

Bart:  The sparkles twinkle and wink in and out as you move the candle.

OOC: Is this where I run in and yell “Leroy Jenkins!!!!”? Sorry couldn’t resist the joke.

 ROFLMAO .... sometimes miss that game.

Barnabus notices a light wink out in the upper doorway but continues to play aloof to the fact someone is there. Instead he places a gentle hand on Kina's side and says

" Thank you madam but it looks as if that won't be needed this time."

The redheaded dwarf gives a couple deep sniffs "However me nose tells me that something precious lies inside."

In a whisper he tells Kina "Mind the upper door someone still watches"

Barnabus raises his shield above his head to protect from an attack from above while he gingerly steps inside. Going slowly to allow his own innate dark vision to adjust to the gloom. He searches the floor for the source of the twinkles.

Barnabus:  The ceiling has a lot of webbing, and odd streamers of the stuff hang down from about 15' overhead.  Nothing else moves in the chamber.  Scattered on the floor are broken stones, bits of bone and several desiccated bundled covered in more webbing.  Scattered here and there in the mess you find a handful of silver and copper coins.  Roll Investigation 

Kina tries to keep herself calm at the thought of another giant bug creeping around above her. The very thought makes her skin crawl. She is more or less frozen to the spot with her hands tightly gripping her staff, ready to strike.
"Why don't we just light a torch?" she whispers. "Or just burn the rest of this place to the ground again? A few times?" she asks, flicking her tail angrily about.

Cade notices the light, and the figures moving around, but sees no threat from that area yet, so moves into the door the group just opened. He looks for any path onward from here, other doors and such, if he finds none he moves back outside to wait for the others. (assuming nothing attacks him.)

Wil resists the urge to tell Kina to not move a muscle and to not turn around and look........ now is not the time for mischief.

OCC: well this ought to be good. 🙄

Investigation: 10

 OCC: Heh! That turned.out better than expected

Barnabus: 

 No further lights or movement can be seen or heard from the keep, and no further activity from the tower top.

“Anything good Barnabus?” as Wil keeps an eye on the surroundings.

"Not much. Lots of remains along with a few coins and an ivory box." replies Barnabus as he dusts himself off. 

"Shall we move on? Whats say we go introduce ourselves?" he asks with a slight nod towards the upper door.

OCC: I have a running list going of the treasure. We can split now or later. 

(Later is fine with me as far as treasure splitting goes.)

Cade finishes looking around inside the tower structure, and then, as stated above, if he is not attacked he will join the others in moving to the open door up the stairs.

OOC: Later is fine, Wil was more interested in if any of the spiders victims had left behind any interesting gear that might be of use to the group.

The webbed bundles in the tower vary in size, but each one checked is a creature you assume to be native to the area, lizards, snakes, etc.  No gear or equipment here.

Barnabus will take the lead up the stairs to give the archers room to cover if everybody is ready and no other entrances or rooms exist on this level.

Wil is ready.
