Apologies busy weekend. Post has been made. Ready to enter the secret door.

In reply to Albricht Burghammer (msg # 8):

No need to apologize. Happens to us all. Cheers

Here's my attempt at a map. Does it look about right?

Good job Albricht!

In reply to Albricht Burghammer (msg # 10):

 Looks good,

  Oh, and I particularly liked the Dwarf holding the lantern HIGH for anyone needing the light.   :)

 jk

That's just an excuse for him to try and singe your eyebrows.

;)

In reply to Lanliss (msg # 13):

Ah   hahahahahahaha

Cool!

It's a d6 to try to open a door, right?

In reply to Greyband (msg # 16):

Yup.

Eventually I'll be able to roll well enough so that we're sure that there aren't any traps.

Sorry all if I'm being too cautious, but Vsaati is having fun messing with things.

In reply to Vsaati (msg # 19):

s'all good.

In reply to Vsaati (msg # 19):

You are doing exactly what you should do. No worries. Cheers

In case we are getting confused here. Albricht did not hear anything, but that doesn't stop him from claiming that he did. It's a personality thing.

question....

 how do i get the race and class in the description of my name, in the threads, like the one that says "Hobbit Fighter"
 for Roak?

 thank you very much

In reply to Elboc Ice Eyes (msg # 23):

Character Details -> change biography

In reply to Sherborne (msg # 24):

thanks

Forgive my charging on (assuming we can), just trying to move us on before we spend several weeks stuck in the first two rooms!

The Dwarf is slowly becoming my favourite character in this group.

@Lanliss, it's fine I just figured we could cover the downtime by looking for any other entrances, as the room seemed like one big trap to me.

That's real old school D&D, having the first room be a trap to wipe out the party.

Aye, makes for a real quick game haha

 question,.... how big around is the tube? I mean, can I stand on the ladder and lean against the wall behind me?

In reply to Elboc Ice Eyes (msg # 30):

Sure.  It's about 3' wide inside, so you can stand on the rungs and lean back against the opposite side while inside the cylinder.  Using a bow, assuming that's what you're thinking of, will be difficult.

In reply to Dungeon Master (msg # 31):

thats what i was wondering. yep.
 no go then.
