What if they're not stars at all? What if the night sky is full of titanic far-off lidless eyes, staring in all directions across eternity?

"Treasure's never boring," Canderella banters right back, "That pendant looks expensive and it's probably magic, let alone that scythe."

"Possibly," Kascha agrees, "But is it dangerous, that's the question. Let me take a look."

Kascha takes 10 on Spellcraft for a total of 68.

"It's an animated statue," Kascha warns, "I believe it's triggered to attack if either item is taken off of it, unless a certain criteria is met. Hmmm..." Kascha whips out her book and starts writing, "My hypothesis is that it's meant for druids or clerics with a natural bend, which the magic supports. I suspect that if any of us take them, we'd have to fight."

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

"First druids, now clerics! I thought this was an arcane magic place!"

'Well, it's not moving NOW...' Tryll says, 'Right now, it's just a normal statue. Not moving. Totally stationary. As vulnerable as a statue gets.'

"Welllll, Mystra has plenty of clerics and this is her afterlife," Kascha says, "So you'd see all sorts of magic, and besides, Mystra is the Mother of All Magic. Not just arcane magic or sorcerer magic." She looks up from her book, "Oh, that's good thinking, Tryll. Smash it before it can even mount an attack."

Tryll elects to vaporize the statue's head by reaching out a tentacle and tapping it with a pair of Disintegrates.

Not rolling because it's impossible for me to miss. Fort save is 27 if it gets one.

Aaaand that's one less statue, the pendant and scythe clattering to the ground.

'Nothing solves problems quite like repeated disintegration.' Tryll says as Calleigh scoops up the amulet.

Loot updated with these.

"How are you on reserves, Tryll?" Kascha asks gently, all while heading towards the chest of drawers.

'I am doing quite well at just under 75%. Please do not worry about me. I'll let you all know if I manage to run low.' Tryll replies confidently as Calleigh stuffs the necklace into her pouch and starts to wrestle the scythe in too.

Kascha checks the chest of drawers. "There's a few silver holy symbols to Mystra, a set of vestments and a book, looks like religious scripture." Closing the drawer with a frown, "Then if this is a religious room, why have a magical defense like that in front of it? It doesn't make sense."

"You're the wizard, tell us," Dana drawls. "Doesn't make much sense to me either, but these assholes seem to have their own ideas."

Surraruthru inspects the room, looking for hidden things.

"It's possible the answer is the amulet and weapon. Depending on what exactly they are, and if they're meant to be used in tandem, they could easily justify the enchantment on the door. However, seeing as both of the most obvious deterrents were easily overcome, it's likely that they were a distraction or something meant to be used in an extremely specific way. The door could easily be a simple enchantment meant to keep curious neophyte acolytes at bay, and if the true treasure is either hidden or must be used in a specific way, then the security measures would likely be enough. Too much draws attention, too little is ineffective."
This is not the greatest post in the world, no... this is just a tribute.

Yuthirin

"The best defense is an overwhelming defense." Calleigh nods, "If you're gonna protect something, walls of iron and force and FIRE are always good. This seems half-hearted. "

"It's also old and forgotten. Lesser spellwork may have faded," Canderella says, "If that's even possible in Dweomerheart."

"It is," Kascha says, "It's a Heaven, not a hospice for spells to go on and on and on." She gives Canderella a long look and a smile at that, "Though that makes me imagine an afterlife for spells and where they go after we cast them."

Search, Surru.
