Dungeon Raid (Surraruthru, Moore)

[Anastasia]

"Weak floor," Finnegan says, backing up, "I'll just run and be ready to jump it.'

[Nephrite]

Moore nods and continues on, flying along.

[Anastasia]

Indeed, as you fly across and Finnegan runs, the floor gives way.

> roll 1d20+40
<Serith> Kotono roll for Serith < 50 > [d20=10]

A good hunk of it, but Finnegan makes the leap cleanly to the far side and to the slope down. Beneath the floor you can see a spiked pit, just waiting for hapless sorts to fall in.

[Nephrite]

"...This feels like a rather beginner's dungeon, doesn't it?" Moore says. "I don't mean to tempt the owner, but I hope he realizes we won't quit."

[Anastasia]

"Don't tempt fate," Finnegan agrees, "We don't need things to be unspeakably deadly if this slaad gets bored."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods and will continue on past the slope.

[Anastasia]

You can see the slope goes down a short ways to a small room. There's a door to the north and a door to the west here. Sitting in the center of the room is a strange device, a metal sphere with thin wires of gold stitched around it.

[Nephrite]

Moore tries to detect magic again!

14:16] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+24 CL check
[14:16] <Serith> Nephrite roll for Serith < 29 > [d20=5]

Take 10 for 47, but assuming it didn't work again.

Failing that, he will cast a spell to help him look around for traps, just to be safe.

Casting Trap Finding. He's taking 10 for 42 on the Search check.

[Anastasia]

There's no traps to be found and you detect no magic.

[Nephrite]

"Well that's obviously not right." Moore says with a huff. "Surruruthru, maybe you'll have more luck with your magical sight?" He gestures at the orb. "I'm guessing it controls something..."

[Iron Dragoon]

Surraruthru looks over the room and object, looking for signs of magic or traps, figuring magical patterns and puzzles may be a theme here.

Someone roll the requisite CL and/or Spellcraft for me, please.

Edit: I can do it myself now.
> roll 1d20+24 CL
<Serith> Iddy roll for Serith < 39 > [d20=15]
> roll 1d20+36 Spellcraft
<Serith> Iddy roll for Serith < 51 > [d20=15]

[Anastasia]

The sphere and wires are powerfully enchanted. If touched, it will transmute an object to a mix of iron, gold and platinum. It seems to be tuned into a pattern for a certain object - a crescent, you think, small enough to be held in hand.

[Iron Dragoon]

"There's a specific object that it's tuned to; a small crescent. It'll transmute it into.. iron, gold, and platinum... We don't have that, so I wonder if we can take this with us for when we do..."

Surraruthru inspects it some more, trying to figure out if it's safe to touch and move.

[Anastasia]

It's magically anchored to its position so it can't move. It's safe for living creatures to touch, but any objects they hold or wear that touch it - like a sleeve - will be transmuted if they do.

[Nephrite]

"We may as well return when we've found it." Moore says as he moves to the west door to see if it opens.
