Wait, I’m alive? I’m alive!

Who do I have to fight to get out of here?

3082

Can I make a suggestion?

3083

I have one! Think outside the box.

3084

I search Tomb 10 to see if there are any lingering dangers. Is my spear still down here somewhere?

3085

nKoan goes in search of his two-headed spear, probing the dark corners of the tomb with an outstretched toe as his only guide. In one particularly dark (and squishy) corner, he pokes something sharp. Is it his spear? Or something covered in quills?

Does he reach down to the dark floor and check? Or run back to prolix and tecwrtr?

Meanwhile, in Tomb 3, the ground heaves again, and this time stones clatter down from the ceiling before all falls silent…

3086

Okay, you know what the spear isn’t worth it. I climb up the rope to Tomb 9 and then begin the long walk to check out Tomb 3.

3087

nKoan reaches Tomb 3 without incident. Through the doorway into Tomb 2, he can hear Nightgaunt caught in mortal combat with something large and fierce. Tomb 3 is quiet for the moment…

In Tomb 3.

> prolix (1 hp)
In Tomb 10. He carries:
A staff made of troll bone (Arcane) Used to search an unsearched tomb (if you wish) to reveal its extra item (if it has one), but immediately provokes an attack by a danger that enjoys a +10 score bonus.
A bottle with two openings (Potion) Face both dangers in a tomb at once in a single match, but suffer 2 wounds if you lose.
A bottle covered in hashtags (Potion, Bottomless) Prohibit the danger from playing any 2, 3, or 4 (your choice).
An amulet (Arcane)

A rope leads up to Tomb 9 from Tomb 10.

3089

Well heck, I’ll follow nKoan up. No sense in lounging about at the center of the earth. How far do I climb before something (presumably bad) happens to me?

3090

Leaving the rope behind for tecwrtr? So noble, all of you!

You make it to Tomb 3 and hang out with nKoan while Nightgaunt battles in Tomb 2. It’s too crazy in there to enter yourselves…

3091

Yeah I really wild out

3092

Celebratory match results

nKoan > clyve
clyve > prolix

3093

Just got back from vacation…read the thread…what should I be doing? Not even sure how I wound up with 1 hp. Thought I was dead and gone. Any help for the village idiot is appreciated! :)

3094

I suggest searching for treasure :>

3095

tecwrtr, if you read the thread, you’d know why you came back to life, I think! :D And welcome back! We hear that you play Nightfall? Clyve and I are looking for someone to tutor us.

===========

I’ve heard through the grapevine that Nightgaunt defeated the creature in Tomb 2. All tombs are clear. What does each adventurer wish to do? Exit the tombs, or something else?

While deciding what to do, Prolix notices that the amulet has gone cold in his hand. None of the warmth that possessed it in Tomb 10 remains. In fact, as he thinks back on his journey to Tomb 3, he realizes that the amulet’s warmth faded as he retreated from the tombs…

3096

Hm. No idea what that means. Is there still a dark something or other in Tomb 3? Whatdya wanna do Prolix? It’s your amulet.

3097

Up up and away!

3098

I think that means that prolix is searching tomb 3 with his staff.

3099

WOOHOO FINALLY

if he won’t, I quit being a danger and am entering the tomb as a raider to get the staff and will search myself.

It doesn’t matter what we choose because you rotten dangers will just flip the script and rain unholy terror on us poor adventurers!
