Bernard takes 1 point of damage as Ancient Osiriani hieroglyphs spelling the word "thief" are etched into his forehead.

Anyone else want to stare hard into the mirrors, or maybe try the doors to the left or the right?

Jaware is waiting for the big guys to do it.

"Well, this room has been most disagreeable! Shall we move on?"

Bernard has started unconsciously putting his hand to his forehead frequently.

Gethean turns away as Bernard exclaims and he sees the runes on his forehead. He does not wish to let the old man see the smile on his face, considering his apparent anger at being branded so. It takes but a few moments for him to regain his composure and to continue scanning the halls and areas behind them.

Iseret moves to the leftmost door and checks it for traps. (Perception is +4).

Tabat turns his head from the jackal-headed statue and looks at Bernard, the mark etched into the man's forehead. "Hrm," he intones, "It seems Akhentepi didn't foresee the descendants of his kingdom opening his tomb up for legal plunder." Seeing Bernard appears more annoyed than hurt, he nods, "Agreed, let's move forward." He heads to the door that Iseret is checked out, prepared to open it once cleared.

OOC:
Since left and right are relative to which way you're facing, this is going through the map left door, or west.
A flight of steps gradually descends to the west down this passage. Halfway down the stairs, small holes and burrowed tunnels riddle what remains of the passage’s southern wall. Earth and sand have spilled over the collapsed masonry, covering the stairs with dirt and rubble. Stone doors engraved with a golden scarab, its wings open beneath a golden sun, stand at either end of the stairs. One of the eastern doors is slightly ajar.

The stairs go down about 30' and are 10' wide, strewn with rubble. Hallway down in the south side is a semi circular alcove.

Status table here.

You'll see a floating spoiler tag at the top right of your screen. The map and some character statuses can be found there.

Iseret makes a check of the eastern doorway, to be certain it is safe. (+4 to Perception)
Oct 8, 2021 10:22 pm
For clarification, is Iseret checking the door you're just passing through out of the mirror room, or the door at the bottom of 30' of stairs?

what does PP stand for on the status table?

OOC:
Passive perception, i think. Though Iseret's would be 15 for traps due to their Trapfinding ability.

OOC:
Passive Perception, indeed - Not sure that I'll use it that way, but it's there. Corrected Iseret's.
As Iseret heads down the stairs, having found no booby traps on the door at the top, half-way down she is suddenly confronted by swirling sand that rises from the rubble, forms vaguely into the shape of a snake, and strikes!

After the surprise attack, everyone can roll initiative and act if you beat the snake-made-of-sand.

Rolls

Snake strike - (1d20+5, 1d8+4)

1d20+5 : (1) + 5 = 6

1d8+4 : (3) + 4 = 7

Foe initiative - (1d20+1)

(11) + 1 = 12

Initiative Roll
Tabat immediately springs into action as the snake materializes before them. He rushes forward, drawing his sword and striking with all his fury.

Iseret is caught by surprise but manages to twist out of the snake's bite. Her short sword flashes in the light and slashes at the snake-thing.

Gethean looks around when he hears the noise of battle ahead but does not see a path to whatever is going on at the moment so he stands ready as he watches the rear of the column.

Tabat and Iseret both leap into action, Tabat's attack missing, and Iseret's not doing any damage (due to damage reduction).

Gethean can move as per the map below. Assume the party are just at the right hand of the map, the right hand most squares being in the mirror room. The squares in the angular lower part are difficult terrain.

Jaware spends 1 point of his arcane pool to enhance his bow then attacks the Snake using Ranged Spell Combat to shoot a Arrow (with deadly aim) and cast acid splash against it.

Initiative. Edit: Crit, watch this not confirm and do no damage from dr
This tomb exploring really was living up to the warned danger.
