"This is a crypt," says Davik, moving into the room to examine the images on the sides of the slabs "There is probably some kind of spell upon them to preserve them against decay. Why are they here? If they were to become undead, surely they would not be kept here."
"I believe you are probably right Davik. Though I will want to check the crypt to make sure that priest is not hiding in here."
Out of character: I always forget searching rolls is it d6 or d20.
Hunter comments, "Maybe this room is a room of suspended animation as we neither move or act."
Out of Character: Throwing that out from the Dungeon Master. .
The party searches the room carefully. Despite the five bodies in the slabs, they find nothing else in the room. No secret doors. No other people in the room.
Every now and then, Hunter is put on edge thinking that he sees something out of the corner of his eyes, but when he goes to look to see what it is, there's nothing there.
The party chats a bit about burning, stabbing, chopping, etc. The bodies, but nobody has actually taken an action on it.
Davik gives Hunter a nod. "Is there anywhere else we need to check, or should we go kill a Necromancer?
Gabriel holds onto Tishpak with the ropes that are tied to keep him restrained. Jude waits with them outside in the hallway while the rest of the party examines the room and its contents.
Hunter draws his sword and prepares to cut off the head of the first corpse. As he does so, shadows appear next to each person in the room and attack. The first strikes Delgar (4 HP damage) causing an icy chill to go through Delgar’s body (Temporarily lose 1 point of Strength). The second attacks Hunter, but Hunter’s senses allowed him to react with just a split second before the shadow was able to strike.
The shadow attacking Drethen is unable to hit him, not expecting Drethen to be wearing enchanted armor. Ardo is also lucky in that the shadow attacking him is unable to do any damage. And Davik, also being wary of the situation, is able to realize the danger just before the creature struck, giving him the opportunity to dodge the attack.
Out of Character: : The shadows achieved surprise, so this is the first regular round of combat.
