The hunt for goldenfire (Afina and Jaela, later Surraruthru too)

[Ebiris]

"There's nothing wrong with having a theme and sticking with it," Afina nods steadfastly. Luckily she has lots of fire spells to use for her theme, although she might come undone when it comes to rainbow type themes. With nothing else to look at she continues onwards!

"We have a complicated relationship, plus I wanted you to have your very first serious trial in the safest environment possible," Jaela responds after weighing the pros and cons and deciding to answer the question properly. "I did also think your powers might come useful to compliment ours. But don't take it to mean I'm shunning her or something. We'll invite Mom to an outing on Ysgard or some hardcore training later, when we're freer."

"Aside from trash like unholy weapons we don't want to break the devils' belongings, since the Crusade is mostly financed on what we can loot," Afina tells the invisible dragon.

The party continues east. It goes on perhaps 30ft before hooking north once more. Just past that sits an actual, honest to goodness treasure chest. It rests against the wall, painted a bright red color. Past it the passage continues to the north 40ft, before coming into another open square. You can see a blue orb in the center of that, floating along there. There's no door to the north there, but there may be one to the east or west, as you can't tell from here.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru lands and tries to stick to a corner or near a wall.

".... I haven't been in many dungeons, but... That's a trap, isn't it?"

[Anastasia]

"In normal cases? Yes. No one is so fool to leave valuables unguarded. But this is not a normal place," Arrel says, "Do you have skill in finding traps, wyrmling?"

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru eyes the room...

"Yes, I know to find some traps... We used to play tricks on each other with them. Want me to try and find it?"

[Anastasia]

"That's probably wise," Kascha says, "This isn't a bad place to see how good you are at it, either."

Where are you searching? The hall north? The treasure chest? The room north with the blue orb?

[Iron Dragoon]

I'd start with the hallway/room we're in just to make sure any trap isn't proximity like the last one, then move onto the chest. The passage/room north with the orb.

[Anastasia]

I presume you have trapfinding? I mean, I think beguilers get it but I'm not 100%. Anyway, assuming you do, roll a Search check. We'll do the previous area first.

[Iron Dragoon]

Beguiler does get it, lvl 1.

[Anastasia]

The way you came is trapless and safe. No sign of secret passages or the like, either.

[Iron Dragoon]

"No traps here! Chest might be, but we don't have to worry about anything like the first room here. Next room maybe."

With that, Surraruthru approaches the chest to look it over!

[Anastasia]

Search again.
