OOC:
I'll give it 24hrs, or the active players each posting that they don't want to do something else.

Tolvaj prepares for the torch lighting by shielding his eyes.

Taris grips the hilt of his greatsword in preparation of trouble.

With no objections, Boide strikes the tinderbox until sparks land in the slowly rotating, oil-coated drum... and sure enough, it bursts into flame. The heat forces Eithne and Boide to step back to avoid burns. So, now you are standing ten feet back from a slowly rotating drum, painted with a visual illusion that makes you kind of nauseous, that is on fire.

Boide shields his eyes. "I figure we let that burn out. One less thing to worry about when we cross, eh?" He seems pleased with his plan, a wide grin peeking out from his beard.

Eithne the giant octopus makes squishing noises. What it could possibly mean is anyone's guess.

As the cylinder burns the hallway begins to fill with thick, choking black smoke. The mages among you recognize this as regular smoke, but the tightness of the room and intenseness of the burn, is producing a lot of it. You are forced to retreat back into the hallway to wait out the fire. When it does finally die down, you find the cylinder is still slowly rotating, although the interior is now charred and scarred by flame. It is no longer slick with oil, and there is a distinct smell of burn in the air.

Boide's stomach rumbles. "I can see why that sphinx yearns for meat. This would make for a good roaster, no?" He hefts his shield and proceeds into the cylinder.

Taris laughs at the dwarf's joke, "It would, indeed!" and follows the dwarf down the tunnel.
Jun 13, 2016 11:23 pm
Tolvaj says nothing as he falls in behind Taris.
Jun 14, 2016 6:15 am
Eithne, still in giant octopus form, follows the rest.
OOC:
I can maintain this form for 2 hours, but can only breathe outside water for 1 hour. How long's it been since the kelpie tank? Please let me know when time is running short.

On the otherside of the smokey drum you find a the hallway ends abruptly. A quick scan of the end reveals a wooden door in the left hand wall.
Jun 14, 2016 5:17 pm
"Elf, you're good at finding odd stuff around doors," Boide says to Tolvaj. "See anything suspicious about this one?" His own gaze sweeps the area around the door, hoping to ensure nothing is missed that might provide a clue.

Boide ascertains that the door is, indeed, wooden.
Jun 15, 2016 9:52 pm
"I'll take a look." Tolvaj says as he walks by Boide and approaches the door. "Hmmmm.... Looks like. A door!"

"All right, well, let's check if it's locked," says Boide. He readies his shield, and attempts to open the door.
Jun 15, 2016 10:43 pm
"Right behind you" Tolvaj offers as he loads a bolt into his hand crossbow and reaches for a dagger.
Jun 17, 2016 3:59 am
The door is locked,
Jun 17, 2016 4:41 am
"It's locked," states Boide.
Jun 17, 2016 8:33 pm
"Is it locked?" Tolvaj mockingly asks with what appears to be a slight smile. Removing his back and dropping it at his feet he mumbles an old Drow saying as he rummages for his tools.

"Here we are! Let's see...." he kneels by the door and starts to work at the lock.
