GoM: The Festering Blot - GM Turn Post 24


The long bookshelves in these dusty alcoves are filled with books. The smell of mildewed paper hangs in the air. This library contains a fine collection of books, maps, and other old documents, but mildew has ruined most.

Starting positions are displayed on the combat map.

Please submit your turn instructions using the Player Action Response - Turn Post Template. If you are planning to use a specific skill, please list the skill and the associated roll(s) along with your 5 d20 rolls.

N/A

Map Key:

Ceiling - The ceiling is 15 feet high on the estate’s ground floor and second floor.

Lighting - Areas inside the estate have normal light because of the abundance of doors and windows.

Chairs - Any squares that contain chairs are treated as difficult terrain.

Tables - With a successful DC 12 Acrobatics check, a creature can hop onto a table as part of a move action. If the creature fails this check by 5 or more, its movement ends and it falls prone.

The stairs are steep and are considered difficult terrain when ascending or descending.

Squares filled with bushes are considered difficult terrain and provide concealment (20% miss chance).

    1. Barnacleez detects 8 auras of magic concentrated in one location. They appear to be located behind a small section of books on a shelf in square C5.

    2. Point it out to our trap-detection expert. And investigate.

    3. Ro-Mahn examines the area that Barnacleez points out. He does not see anything that alarms him.

    1. Ro-Mahn does not detect any traps in the room at a macro level. There are thousands of object within the library. Individual items would need to be examined to clear them as safe.

  3. Is there any evidence of activity -- tracks in the dust on the floor, books that have been pulled out, in use or set aside?

    1. There are mite and giant centipede tracks throughout the house. It does not appear that the library has seen any recent scholarly use.

      Delete
    2. Dare I ask what subjects the books cover, judging by their titles?
      Wahesh is more interested in the connection between the bugs, goblins, and blue guys all on demonic PEDs and their beef with Saringallow than if the Sarinis really were guilty. But does a casual inspection yield any clues?
      He’ll leave the magical areas to the magical people.

  5. Cando will cautiously move into the room and stand ready at F11 next to the door there, while his friends search the room to their heart's content.
