Maloof quietly and carefully closes the door again.

"The Rabbit of Caerbannog... here?...", he reports in a quiet whisper, a shudder passing through him.

(Does anyone want to confront the rabbit? Maloof is a bit shaken, but can be convinced to proceed. This seems to be the last unexplored area here, the only other place to explore is to return back to the main level through the trapdoors and the tunnel).

(We are on level 4, in the north-east portion)

Franklin says, "I'm not scared, but it seems wrong to hurt a bunny rabbit."

Maloof quietly and carefully closes the door again.

"The Rabbit of Caerbannog... here?...", he reports in a quiet whisper, a shudder passing through him.

"Did the rabbit have huge fangs, or was it overly large?" Aldbane asks. "It seems harmless enough, and I can handle a few skeletons..."

| :lol: Aldbane is fine with exploring the rabbit room more, but if we want to go back to the main level that is fine also. |

OOC: Not sure if it is the rabbit of Monty Python, but if it is, it could be deadly in HTH. We have missiles and magic. However, it could be very peaceful in its normal state and only becomes the dreaded one when attacked.

Naillus will ask,"can we determine if it is evil, or intelligent?"

[kipper]

There is a door on the opposite side of the room, we could attempt to pass the rabbit peacefully.

Franklin replies to Aldbane, "If you can handle the skeletons, Sconces and I will investigate the rabbit. He is a good hunting dog and his reaction will tell us a lot. If it is an ordinary rabbit then he is trained to point. If it is a monster then he will whimper or growl. If it is an illusion then he might not react at all. If it lunges, I will block its attack with my magic shield!"

OOC: I hope our DM will allow that Franklin and Sconces have hunted rabbits before as a team, and this would be in their area of expertise? On the origin of Sconces' name: Walk through the front door of any hobbet home, and you will be greeted by the cheerful glow of sconce-style lighting fixtures. Sconces as a dog name has a similar connotation as Flash or Sparky. Either that or Franklin is dyslexic and was thinking Scones since the boston terrier is so round and sweet.
