Dungeon Raid (Surraruthru, Moore)

[Anastasia]

3 fire damage to you two after your resistance 10 from Surraruthru's spell. Iddy, you can spend a move action to active your prepared spells if you like.

As the heat and choking gases hit you, you see lava as far as the eye stretches. However, straight above you, you can see a platform of basalt about 50ft above you. A rope ladder is slowly descending from it at a rate of 5ft a round, ignoring gravity to go far too slow. As you see that and marvel, the lava around you begins to splash and push outward. Something's coming up from it.

Act y'all.

[Iron Dragoon]

I won't. The timer is limited on Resistance, so unless it's an every round thing, I'll hold off on it.

[Nephrite]

Moore will simply fly up. There's really no sense in heeding the idea behind this. Both Surru and Finnegan can do the same!

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru follows, keeping a slower pace to stay with Finnegan.

[Anastasia]

Finnegan has one small weakness: He can't fly and doesn't have an item for it. He never got a chance to get money to take care of that since he was a late comer in B3's first round.

[Nephrite]

Finnegan should still have Air Walk.

[Anastasia]

Oh right, thank you.

The party ascends up rather quickly. Just as well, since below a massive titan of lava and fire erupts out to assault the now empty basalt island, breaking it and causing it to sink beneath the heat. You rise up, the heat taxing all of you further.

<Kobot> Kotono rolled 4d6 this might get through, it might not --> [ 4d6=14 ]{14}

4 damage after resistance.

As you endure the blistering heat, you reach the platform. It's 10ft wide and 20ft long, the center having a strange ten pointed diagram full of twisting, moving symbols.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru inspects the diagram, trying to figure out the magic in it.

[Nephrite]

"Well that's just rude." Moore says with a huff. Moore casts Detect magic on the diagram!

[21:28] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+24
[21:28] <Kobot> Nephrite rolled 1d20+24 --> [ 1d20=7 ]{31} CL check if it's needed

Taking 10 on Spellcraft for 47.

[Anastasia]

Spellcraft as well, Surraruthru.

[Iron Dragoon]

> roll 1d20+36+2 Spellcraft
<Kobot> Iddy rolled 1d20+36+2 Spellcraft --> [ 1d20=11 ]{49}

What's the remaining duration?

[Nephrite]

Shared Talents is 10m/level, so it'd have been like 4 hours. I'd venture another 3 hours or so. Also I forgot about it so it puts my Spellcraft at 49.

[Anastasia]

It's a magical activation. If the proper key is used, it will activate it and cause the platform to move somewhere, which in turn will activate magic ahead and allow it to reach somewhere beyond this safely.

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru tries to inspect it deeper, looking for what the activation key is.

[Anastasia]

Some sort of nonmagical key. An actual key, probably one made of iron.
