@Moon: You don't see a key shapped bear but you do see a bear that you think matches the dimensions of the groove in the door.

@Tomas: All the bears seem to be singing the same song. If you're looking for something different then I'll need a perception check.

Arwen shifts a bit. Well the second... good bears gets treats? So if we joined the rest of the good bears in... dancing? I didn't want to think of that as a real option though...

OOC:
No, it was just idle curiosity.

— Look at this one. I point towards the bear that appears to be a match to a "keyhole". Is it just me or it looks like this one will 'fit' into this 'lock'?
OOC:
Guidance and Enc. Ability won't 'stack' as they both are concentration spells.

"So we just catch it and stuff it into the door? Sounds easy enough... Just let me know where I should be. Never even wrangled kids, let alone some moving stuffed bear."

He looks to both Arwen and Moon for guidance, as they seem to be taking this whole situation in stride a bit more easily than he.

Just a quick summary, so you understand the situation.

You are in a room with a locked door. There is a teddy bear shaped groove in the door.
Moon has spotted a bear that seems to fit the dimensions of the groove.
The bears are dancing and singing on a loop.
As soon as you get within 5 feet of a bear it runs directly away from you but not at the speed of light or anything. You think it would defenitely be possible for a quick humanoid to catch one.

Herod rushes in to catch one (since he is one of the faster peeps).
OOC:
What kind of Check should I roll? Would an acrobatics check work to chase the bear? Should I also do athletics to wrangle it?

  I nod at the sight of the baldy running towards the bear.

— Yeah, that's one way to do it... I stretch. Get in a low stance...
OOC:
Feline Agility - double the speed to 60ft till the end of round. Cunning Action to Dash as Bonus Action. Dash as Action as well. 180ft in 6s seconds or 30ft/s speed.
So, Moon probably got to the bear first? :D
But she wouldn't go for it from the front, instead curving around and making it run towards the Herod.
She will try to 'Help' him in tackle as well, so - advantage to Herod?

Look at them go.

He starts rifling through his gear and finds the potion that he was looking for. He takes aim ahead of the bear and waits to see if they are going to be able to catch it.
OOC:
If they manage to fail to tackle the bear, Yorrick is going to put an entangle spell right in front/hitting it to slow the thing down.

Stalwart moves toward and stands by the door. He is ready to help position the bear into the keyhole if it’s needed.

Jabes.plays.RPG says:
. She draws a javelin and gauges the distance if she were to leap down.
I haven't acted because I'm waiting for the result of this. Let me know if you need a roll. You know what, here's an unmodified d20 to save time.

Rolls

All-purpose, unmodified d20 - (1d20)

(16) = 16

OOC:
Wow, lots of work for me here. That's cool. In reverse order...

@Ronda: Sorry about that. I didn't realise you were waiting for me. You are currently about 15 feet above the dancing bears. However, the others are talking near the golden door, so they are probably 80 feet away and 20 feet below you. Difficult to hear what they are talking about.

@Moon: You can certainly race Herod to get to the vear uf you like but it would be a little counter intuitive and would limit the chance of successfully catching the bear.

@Herod. You can roll dexterity athletics. You'd have to sell me on how acrobatics would help lol. Roll with advantage as Moon is helping you.

OOC:
I'll give Herod another 24 hours to make the check. If not, Moon can make it :)

Just a note to everyone, when in doubt just give me an unmodified roll (like Ronda just did). I can always access your character sheet and apply the mod myself

@Moon: Please make a dexterity athletics check with advantage.

Let's roll

Rolls

Athletics (DEX) - (1d20+5)

(16) + 5 = 21

Athletics (DEX) - (1d20+5)

(14) + 5 = 19

As Ronda prepares to leap from the landing should the bears do any sort of funny business, and Yorrick prepares to summon the elemental forces, Moon and Herod come at the target bear from two different angles. With expert timing, Herod lunges in tune with the bears dancing and it leaps away from him and into the waiting claws of Moon.

Moon takes the bear, which feels solid, if a little unnatural, and stuffa it into the hole in the door. You all hear a cracking sound and the image of Alak appears again. He slaps his thigh and laughs as he says
You all look ridiculous! Well done! You solved it and an extra point to the cat creature for catching the bear. Oh? I didn't mention you were competing with one another? Whoops. The winner will receive a speical prize! Anyway come inside. This next room I am quite proud of.

His image vanishes and you walk through a small corridor that opens again into a small square room 9 feet by 9 feet. In the very center of the roof there is a strange pedistal.

Alak appears on top of the pedistal.
This is quite amazing. Any image you hold in your head when you touch this pedistal will appear instantly on it. Think of your answer to the following riddle and it will appear. Be as detailed as you can because the person who creates the best obiect will receive a bonus point! Now to ensure fairness, you will each wear a blindfold. He points to a nail hanging from the wall and you see several strips of dark silk cloth hang from the nail.

Once you have all put on your blindfolds we can begin the challenge. Here is your riddle:

My father's father I do revere,
Man made I am and with great care,
Roman numerals I proudly wear,
I have a face and yet no hair,
Twice a day I do declare,
Open my mouth and give a mighty cheer.
OOC:
As you cannot see each other's item please send me a note detailing the item you are thinking of. Please describe it as best you can.

Herod puts on his blindfold.

Yorrick puts on the blindfold and waits until he is sure that the others are blindfolded as well. He then reaches out and places his object.
