ANd it shatters, and you feel the Dracolich's malevolent soul depart into the nine hells in a slight wind which chills you all to the bone.

And congrats, everyone levels.

Blackclaw hefted the Nether Scroll, his eyes scanning it as it waited for the text to shift to Draconic. "Let's haul this back to Candlekeep as fast as possible." He commented. "Let the greybeards discuss it's implications. Then we can start planning our next move."

"Indeed. This area however is protected by a high magic effect that blocks teleportation. There is probably a way out, we will just have to find it"

Vincent starts poking around for some sort of secret door or teleportation ring.

I'll help you look.... Maybe its in this pile of gold and precious items....

Caden starts to quickly paw through the horde, picking, chooseing the finer items, pieces of gold and depositing them in his portable hole.

Blackclaw eyed the horde, and closed his eyes. "Mmm." He said simply. "It's time. I'll need my share of this in coinage and gemstones." He said simply, striding over to the horde. Against all probabiltity, he began lifting handfuls of coins, and.. Eating them? Sure enough, he deposited them into his mouth, crunched, and swallowed.

Everyone, make DC 35 knowledge arcana checks to know why the hell he is eating gold

The Village Idiot · Post by **The Village Idiot** » Wed Jul 19, 2006 12:56 pm

uhh...BlackClaw....you can hold more gold, and access it a bit better if you put it in a bag or other exterior container....I have an extra portable hole if you need it, other wise it gets filled up also.

Comrade Tortoise · Post by **Comrade Tortoise** » Wed Jul 19, 2006 12:58 pm

Vincent chuckled at the Archer's confusion as he didnt give the gold eating a second thought

"Found it! A teleportation ring. Too small for the dracolich, but the inscription is just in elvish. It will take us to the surface"

The Village Idiot · Post by **The Village Idiot** » Wed Jul 19, 2006 1:20 pm

sounds like a plan....now help me fill up my second bag, unless you dont want any more reward in which case you'll need to give me another few min.

(everyone gets 2 million GP in gold, and assorted items and gems, what is in the horse is up to you, because I am lazy, just run any items by me)

Vincent looked at one of the piles,muttered a few words, and it disappeared

"He's trying to become a dragon.." Jernei drawled, appraising the horde and picking out the gems and jewelry that was the highest value by rarity and cost...

Then she got a better idea, as she opened her own portable hole. Whistling down it, she summoned her 'clan'... two of BlackClaw's children, all grown up and working for her. Jernei's share of the horde vanished down the hole very quickly with the Kobold's help.

"A pity we can't simply escape through this hole of mine... but I am very loath to leave it where it can be found." She eyed Blackclaw, still lining up items to swallow. "If you would like, you can store some of that with mine, for later..." she offered. "I believe your children have several empty alcoves available."

The two younger kobolds, one sharing their grandsire's metallic appearance, nodded vigorously and spoke rapid promises in Dragonic to keep everything safe.

Tormenta watched as everyone devided up their clame of the treasure when they had finished he picked up what was left and dropped it casualy into one pocket. He was not overly concerned with money and would probalby spend it on books or donate it to a library in his home town that he regularly bought books for.

Well I have as much as I can carry. Shall we return those scrolls to a safer location..... Anyone want to come back and loot a bit more? Just curious.....

Comrade Tortoise · Post by **Comrade Tortoise** » Sat Jul 22, 2006 6:55 pm

"We would have to go through all the trap again if we come back I am afraid..."

The Village Idiot · Post by **The Village Idiot** » Sat Jul 22, 2006 7:03 pm

yeah...we beat them once....we can do it again. Should be alot easyer considering we know whats coming and how to defeat it.

But if not....shall we continue to bigger and better things?

"I would like to find out who knew how to find the Scrolls... and where they meant to take them..." Jernei said as her two helper Kobolds jumped back inside the portable hole and vanished as the bronze elf picked up the hole and tucked it away.

She really felt sorry for anyone who tried to steal that hole... the Kobolds would have them for lunch.

Blackclaw stood unsteadily from beside the pile. "...I'm good. I'm good." He murmured. "Need a nice relaxation now. Near the scrolls I had." The kobold.. Looked drained.

Is it weird that the dragon-elf seems very worried for the Kobold? "BlackClaw... are you ok?" she asked, walked over as if ready to scoop him up when he falls.

"See I told you to put it in the bag....now look what you have gone and done" Caden said, looking a bit worried for the Kobold

Then again I have never seen any creature actually vomit gold.....this should be good.

Edit: text errors

"I did as I planned to." Blackclaw hissed, still somewhat unsteady. "I will be fine. The specifics of what I did will become..Apparent. Let us merely leave with the Scroll."

LadyTevar · Post by **LadyTevar** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 3:45 pm

"As you wish..." Jernei replied, stepping over to give the Kobold an arm to lean on.. wanted or otherwise. "Eating your horde is a bad sign, old friend.." she muttered to him.

Comrade Tortoise · Post by **Comrade Tortoise** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 7:32 pm

"No. No it isnt" vincent muttered as he prepared deciphered the incanation on the teleportation ring

"Everyone ready to do?"

Comrade Tortoise · Post by **Comrade Tortoise** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 7:40 pm

Vincent of course, did not wait for them. Once he finished the incantation which took seconds, they were transported back to Candlekeep with a lovely flash of light and a popping sound

The Village Idiot · Post by **The Village Idiot** » Wed Jul 26, 2006 9:32 pm

Well I am not sure sure about you my friends....but I need to stop through Waterdeep and pick up a few things. Just a small prep for the next leg of the journey.

Comrade Tortoise · Post by **Comrade Tortoise** » Sat Jul 29, 2006 10:44 pm

"Hmm... I am loathe to take any side trips, time being what it is and being of the essence and all. However" Vincent said as he whisked the scrolls away into the vault

"I dont think Waterdeep would be a good place to resupply. Union would be better. It will require me planeshifting us there though"
