[p Halfling,leather,sling,open hand,9,4/4]Potts[/p] says his piece then slips through the door to find himself on the mezzanine passage overlooking a large chamber some 20ft below. Quickly checking left and right, Potts decides he is alone on the passage way, and that it seems to encircle the whole chamber. This section of the balcony/passage is about 40-50ft long and about 7-8ft wide.
Voices drift up to him more clearly here--male and female--and, by peeking over the edge, he spots perhaps a dozen snake cultists in the 100ft octagon-shaped chamber below. The majority of them are bare-chested men and women once again painted with lurid runes--but a few of them are fully robed in black from head to toe. Together, they seem to be performing some kind of dance around a broad ramp that leads deeper into the ground. Sweat glistens on their curling bodies as they writhe in time with their chanting.
The chamber below is lit by half a dozen torches burning about the room, and [p Halfling,leather,sling,open hand,9,4/4]Potts[/p] duly notes that there are stairs connecting to the mezzanine in the short corners of the octagon.
| The cultists are busy below, and Potts is both a halfling and a thief so there's no need to make any kind of sneaking check yet.
What do you want to do next turn (3.13)? |
