The door opens and no trap or other hidden mechanism goes off. Perhaps it's because the lock had nothing harmful on it, or perhaps it's because you used an exact replica of the keys. Regardless, you open the door and see something shocking...

[OOC] I haven't designed all of the interior of the room yet, and might not be able to do so until Sunday because tomorrow is very busy for me, unfortunately. So sorry if I'm not able to say what's in the room for a day or two.

*hello everyone, I would like to ask everyone to go back to using the * symbol at the start and end of a sentence when OOC please!*

*Also, I haven't been here in a while, I need a recap.*

 *My character drank Arnold’s beer, humiliated some people with a metal cube, used that metal cube to break into Arnold’s room.*

 *thank!*

*I won't be able to make the room for another day. Probably not until late-sh tomorrow (my timezone). I'm sorry about the delay, because I'm gonna design a (hopefully) really cool skill challenge. That being said, I've had a very busy weekend and wasn't able to work on nearly as many things as I wanted to, including this. Again, sorry for the delay. :)*

*This walks in, standing about 33" (~83cm) tall, and wearing nothing but a tuft of multi-colored feathers hanging from one ear, and a necklace of many teeth, strung on a simple leather thong. One battered dagger is sheathed, and secured to her waist with a length of silk rope. She refuses both food and drink, but pulls a coin from a small, battered leather pouch, and lays it on the table, to rent the space for a while. She sits quietly and watches the room.*

*Things are going a bit longer with making the challenge than I thought. Hopefully I'll have everything ready by tomorrow morning, I'm really sorry for the continuous delays lol.*

 *She traces a vaguely draconic symbol on the table, in a glowing, white light.* While doing this, she says, "Just waiting for someone." * The symbol slowly fades.*

Thought Kobold lovers would like to see this. From the Monster Cards Set in the very early 1980's. The first ones ever produced, lol.

Yes that is the Kobold. 

As you guys open the door to Arnold's room, here's what you see: 

At first, the room seems normal. There is a bed in one corner of it, a wardrobe in another, and a desk with a lamp on it next to the bed. However, as your eyes scan the room, you see that there is a small figure lying on the bed. The figure has an owl's head and a bear's body, and its eyes are dark brown. Its beak looks fearsome and dangerous. This creature is an owlbear, though it is not fully grown. It is only a toddler by owlbear standards, but it still covers most of the bed it sits upon.

The owlbear looks up and growls at you. It jumps off from the bed and begins to slowly approach. Arnold laughs and says "This is Greyson. I found his egg in the hoard of the Young Green Dragon I once slayed, and have been raising him here ever since. Though he's mostly content to only eat animal meat, I don't know how well he'll react to 'intruders' in his room."

Arnold tosses a red ball and a couple of pieces of meat to all of you and takes off his top-hat and bows. "Well. If you're the first person who gets Greyson to give you a hand shake, then I'll give you 30 pieces of gold. Be warned though, because Grey won't handshake - or claw shake for that matter - anyone who doesn't have his respect. You'll need to work on some trust building exercises."

Trust Building Exercises. Before Greyson is ready to handshake your character, they need to earn his trust and friendship. There are a number of ways to help befriend Grey. We will be doing this in rounds. Each round lasts 24 hours at a minimum, so that everyone who wants to can participate.

The rules for this skill challenge (Long Version):

 Short Version:

• You need to complete 3 successful trust building exercises from 3 different activities on the list in order to attempt to shake Greyson’s hand.
• If you fail 3 activities, then you automatically lose.
• A failure to shake Grey’s hand causes the amount of successful skill checks you have to go down.
• We will do this in rounds. Each round, every character can attempt one activity. A round lasts a minimum of 24 hours, but everyone who picks an activity while it is still going must have the chance to make the skill checks and finish that action before the round can end.
• I’ll tell people when a round has ended and mark the successes and failures down then. Attempting to handshake Grey takes 1 round.

Activities (You won't know the necessary skill for each trust-building exersize until you decide to attempt it): 

Play Ball.

Wrestle With Greyson.

Feed the Beast.

Intimidate Greyson Into Friendship.

Charm the Owlbear Baby.

“Yeah. I’m not doing that.”

Arnold sighs, "I thought you would be brave enough to take on a little danger. Clearly I was wrong."

*Your post is so hilarious if taken out of context.*

 She laughs. “No. I’ll jump into an active volcano even if I didn’t want or need to. I just don’t want to get emotionally attached to a child.”

*I see that*

"Your choice," Arnold sighs again and pets Grey, who growls gently, "I do still think you're afraid though. I would quite like to see you attempt to jump into a volcano though, it would be a very exciting and enlightening experience."

*If no one wants to do the challenge, then that's alright. We can just continue as normal with Grey as Arnold's sidekick/pet.*

*Quietly and unobtrusively, this one leaves the establishment.*

(Is this place dead?)

*not sure, I'd join?*
