Re: Chapter #2: Adventure 2: Nine Flawed Sapphires
Anuzal begins to search the area where the tracks stop. Looking for any levers, switches or pressure plates. You 2 argue like a old married couple.

Pouts at Asad but says nothing. She laughs at Anuzal. "Hear that? We're married. Where is my ring, darling? I like Saphires, by the way..." That said, she moves over to the falls for a closer look.

Emma sees nothing unusual normal rock, normal water rushing by at an extreme rate that could easily wash anyone away and down over the falls in a blink of an eye to a very bad ending at the bottom.Bluehorse wrote:Emma

Rahkeem ibn Hamad al-Qudra
Rahkeem didn't like the big warrior threatening the little sorcercess one bit, but he was smart enough to know that she could handle herself just fine, so he kept his attention on the area instead....
Shaking his head in confusion at how the path disappeared into the waterfall, eventually he just shrugged and said; "Well, I guess it must be some kind of magic that moves the waterfall or perhaps it's a timing mechanism of some kind. Either way, I guess we should wait until we see somebody come in or out of whatever is behind the falls and then figure out from them how to get in or out. Thoughts?" he asked the others....

She kneels down at the end of the path and examines the ground and the wall itself.
INT (14) [1d20] = 4

Jamal watches the others work, waiting for his djinnling to return. "When Alara is back I shall send her for a spell to detect magic. There is a spell to open doors as well we could try, but it's more complex and difficult to find. Watching and waiting to see how the lair operates for a day wouldn't be a bad idea, always eager to rush in without thinking some of you are. I think it's a longshanks trait or something, always so reckless and empty of patience!" he sighs, picking the dirt out of his nails.
"We could try summoning the servant again and having it pass through the waterfall with a rope maybe. But if there are guards on the other side we would be giving away our surprise advantage."

Thinking while looking at the wall Emma remembers something. "A mage named Zarastro once lived out in this area somewhere... He is a powerful water mage. I seem to remember he sold his place to someone must have been Yodfah." She gives it another hard look. "Everything looks normal... just normal falls normal rock, normal ground. The path still leads right up to the top of the falls and doesn't pass through them. Likely though the water mage used some magic to conceal his lair and likely some magical phrase or other opens the entrance. Though I know the water mage now resides on a secluded island and chances are we won't see him around here or Muluk. The best plan I can think of is to wait based on the foot prints someone should be coming either into or out of this secret place in a day or two."

Rahkeem looked at Emma and said with a sarcastic grin; "Hmm....that sounds like a suggestion I've heard before.....or maybe just said a minute ago...."; he shakes his head with a rueful smile. Why is it when I say something, NO ONE seems to hear it; but when a cute girl says it, everyone's like GOOD IDEA....hmmm....

Re: Chapter #2: Adventure 2: Nine Flawed Sapphires
Anuzal thinks to himself. I seam to recall hearing of a water mage that was selling his place secretly. That it required some magical phrase of some sort to enter the place.

After examining the area for a while, Iskandar suddenly gets an idea. Hmm. What if... he mutters as he approaches.
INT check (18): [1d20] = 8

The sha'ir approaches, speaking the words, Sakina, draw aside. When he says this, the entire waterfall shifts to the left, revealing a passage leading into the stone behind it.

Asad draws his sword and, without any acknowledgement of the magical deed, heads into the cave that's now open before him.

Jamal will send Alara off for a sleeping spell, and follow the others under the waterfall. She is back in 7 rounds with the spell and will hover behind her master's shoulder.

Re: Chapter #2: Adventure 2: Nine Flawed Sapphires
Entry:
Taking out weapons and readying for a battle the group slowly approaches the entrance to the keep under the falls following the trail down in. The 10-foot-wide passage from behind the falls soon opens up into a 20-foot-wide hall. Delicate columns reach up to support a vaulted ceiling covered with cobalt blue tiles, arranged in intricate patterns to depict crashing waves. In the center of the hall, three small fountains gurgle happily. Two men are on guard here, but security is so lax that they are currently playing a game of dice.

The group enters from the bottom of the map.

Asad grips the hilt of his great sword with a smile. With a whisper of "May fate guide my hand to glory this day," he advances to smite the guard closet to his greatness.
