I'm afraid as I mentioned before, with the medium being play by fora I have no way of being able to figure out the trick to the maze. I'm fairly sure Roisin would be able to figure out straight forwardly, but I'm just not seeing it, no matter how I try.

And I have suggested that as the group continues to explore the corridors, you will continue to find areas of non-corridor like the one you've already found. You found that first area quickly when you explored, without knowing how the corridors worked and you will continue to do so.

Well, lets just do randomness until everything is explored.

In reply to Roisin uth Bannatar (msg # 949):

Randomness from a Mage who is disciplined... You could always try what was suggested.

Sometimes random is exciting :-)

but i see your point. Let's continue forward as the GM suggested.

In reply to Roisin uth Bannatar (msg # 951):

Uhm.. apologies

I was suggesting that we return to the room with the three doors allowing time for Roisin attempt a solution that would provide access to the adjacent rooms. If she can't they may need to contend themselves with making a hole in the wall.

well, if there are three rooms it stands to reason I should be able to open one of them....

In reply to Roisin uth Bannatar (msg # 953):

That was my hope.

OK, I made a (very rough) map of the corridors and the rooms outside it.  I haven't mapped the whole Lyceum, though.  Should I try?

Looks good. The ground level is "normal" so there shouldn't be a need to make a detailed map, you'll be able to find your way to where you want to go upstairs anyway.

The corridors are different, so I wanted you, both as players and characters, to experience that.

One note on the map. The connection between the corridors and the "outside world" goes through the bedroom.

Expanding on the note regarding the coin and D'aden's running. They left through the corridor going "up" on the map and returned through the corridor going "right" on the map.

So who's sticking their hand were?

I'll go diamond!

Unless your plan is the same, it may help to know what it is?

Everyone try to reach in and grasp a gem at the same time.

And who goes for the ruby?

I'll go for the ruby.  Spear one-handed.  Shield on my back.

Are we waiting for someone to post IC?

I think all the PCs have posted.  =)

We're waiting for the draconians to decide whether they're deranged from hunger, and so want to eat the PCs, or off their rocker from the constant aura of good that is being broadcast by the altar, in which case they likely want to eat the PCs.

In reply to D'aden Tor VIII (msg # 965):

Oh that's reasonable, we'll go with one of those then shall we. For a moment there I thought they may have heard your previous tunes...

;-D

You're not helping. It has already required immense willpower to avoid a reprise of my "brave, brave Draconians" opus.

Well done.

The draconians's weapons are still functional. And only the dead draconian is stone. The others are down, but not dead and stone.

Sorry everyone. I thought I'd have plenty of time to post over the holiday, but my niecesb had different ideas.
I'll be back home on Friday and be back to normal probably on Monday

Thanks for letting us know. Real life is always more important.
