Aztar sighed a tiny bit but hoped Trysk was onto something to help narrows the doors down.  Turning his attention to the teams rogue, he asked, 'have you found something that will allow us to narrow down the door options?'

In reply to Aztar (msg # 367):

Trysk goes back to examining the symbols above the 12 doors, "Perhaps once we decipher these symbols, we can determine which door is the one we want.  Rockjaw, can you sense anything different about these doors?"

Trysk tries to determine if there are any minute distinctions between the identical symbols (2 swirly lines around a circle or dot) above the 12 doors.

-Trysk

In reply to Trysk (msg # 368):

"All doors seem the same."  replies RockJaw

Seletos just sits there watching.

In reply to Morteft (msg # 343):

Shorty looks at the doors then at the group.   "Calls fer Rigel dragon.   Sees if ken feels him at doors.  Youse be close each udder."

In reply to Ron, The DM (msg # 369):

Trysk touches one of the symbols and uses Read Object on it.

Aztar turns to Shorty, "An interesting idea, but I believe with him trapped in the orb, he wouldn't be able to respond."

Aztar moves over to one of the doors and carefully examines the door and the area around it, trying to see if he can determine anything about the mystery.

"I wonder if it requires the use of the amulet and combining our intellects before we can understand the symbols and the method to open the door?"

In reply to Trysk (msg # 371):

The symbol is 10' off the ground, above the door, need to fly or levitate to be able to touch.

In reply to Ron, The DM (msg # 373):

Seeing his friend reaching for the symbol, Shorty wanders over and gently lifts him up by the waist till he can reach it.

In reply to Shorty (msg # 374):

Trysk seems taken aback at being suddenly lifted into the air, but quick recovers, "Thanks, Shorty."

In reply to Aztar (msg # 372):

BTW, Seletos blocks one of the doors with his body.

--DM2

In reply to Trysk (msg # 375):

Trysk is able to reach the symbol now.

OOC: I assume you mean Object Reading

A wave of visions pass thru your mind, you almost pass out at the sheer volume of images and emotion.  Your hands go to your head and you utter a grunt.  Your life passed before your eyes.  However, nothing comes to you about the symbol.

--DM2

In reply to Aztar (msg # 372):

There are no visual clues at all about the door or surrounding wall.  Very smooth, very plain in appearance.

--DM2

In reply to Ron, The DM (msg # 376):

Warwick floats back up into the air.  "Lord Seletos, why do ye block that door?"

In reply to Warwick (msg # 379):

"This is where I sat."  replies Seletos in an even tone.  "You came up here to ask me that."  in a bit of a tired tone.

--DM2

"Whose closest to meeting the conditions required to open a door?  I recommend I use my amulet to merge my intellect with the strongest candidate and see if there is something we can't see or understand because we lack the criteria to open a door."

In reply to Aztar (msg # 381):

Shorty just looks confused and goes over to sit near Seletos.  He pulls off his treasured black glove and holds it out.   "Bad thinks at steal orb steal magic outs of glove.m you bees smart.  Knows how to fixes it?    Dulles say it not always bees good magic, but it helps me keep friends safe.  Make hurts go way.  Makes punch hard.  Know how fixes?"

In reply to Aztar (msg # 381):

Tyrsk responds, "Didn't you open one last time with Warwick?"

In reply to Trysk (msg # 383):

Warwick answers Aztar's and Trysk's questions.  "Morteft and I tried last time.  He's more intelligent than me, if that's what ye think is needed."

In reply to Warwick (msg # 384):

Morteft says, "Let's try it. I could also try some precognition on the doors and symbols although that has been pretty ineffective in this dungeon."

In reply to Morteft (msg # 385):

"With me or Aztar, lad?"

In reply to Warwick (msg # 386):

Morteft shrugs. "He is smart, you are wise. It is probably a wash."

In reply to Shorty (msg # 382):

Seletos looks down at Shorty and looks at the glove a moment.  "The glove has been demagicked by a great power.  Only an equal or greater power can restore the magic.  There are few who are and I am not one of them.  Consider, not everything that is useful is beneficial."

--DM2

Aztar shrugs, "Matters not to me.  Let me lend my aid for the initial research and we may need to alternate depending on how it affects us."

"I know we were warned that the doors are trapped, so let's just try using the amulets and see if we can make sense of the markings above the door or learn anything else out by meeting the requirements."

Assuming Morteft is willing, Aztar will activate his amulet and attempt to merge with Morteft's amulet though he still wasn't sure what exactly that entailed or how it would affect the two.

In reply to Aztar (msg # 389):

Morteft says, "Let's do it, Aztar."

In reply to Morteft (msg # 390):

As you begin the merge process Seletos will get up.

"If indeed you are successful in freeing Rigel it is best for me to not be around.  I shall continue to observe from beyond."

He gets up and then with a effortless leap, flies into the blackness and is gone.  His departure reveals the last door, that is no different than the others.

The symbol above is the third symbol of the third sequence, notes Trysk.
