Ouragana watches the helmet which sits near the southern wall. It doesn't do anything.

Granite and Thaddeus examine the statues. "It looks like a fairly weak form of magical construct," Thaddeus notes. "Probably meant as some kind of sentry against intruders. Indeed, the first thing it said when activated was 'Intrusus' which is the Eonian word for 'intruder.' It then said 'loqui codice' which means 'enter codeword.' I suppose if you speak the proper code, they deactivate. Likely what activated them in the first place was some kind of trap we triggered by accident."

Although the second armor is stuck in the webbing, Drav tries slashing at it anyway with his long sword. This results rather predictably in his blade getting stuck in the webbing, as well. Despite pulling with all his might, he is unable to yank the sword back out of the webbing.

Empowered by Jocelyn's prayer, Gallath takes aim and fires another arrow over Brock's head. It strikes the armor's left gauntlet, knocking it off. However, this doesn't seem to hinder its ability to wield a two-handed polearm in the slightest.

Jocelyn reaches into her pouch for a sling stone, but finds it empty. She ran out of ammo some time ago and forgot to replenish it.

The remaining armor stabs again at Baeros with its fork, but this time the ranger is ready and he's able to block it by clashing his swords together in an 'x' just in time. He then counters with a double attack. The armor blocks the long sword, but fails to stop the short sword from impaling its chest piece. The whole thing quivers, then falls apart on the ground.

==============

Initiative
Jocelyn (1d10+6): 6+4 = 10
Brock (1d10+7): 10+7 = 17

Baeros (1d10+5): 6+5 = 11

Thaddeus (N/A)
Drav (1d10+5): 1+5 = 6

"Easier than I thought they would be," Jocelyn says with a small sigh. "How long will that webbing hold?"

"Gods above! I thought we will have to kick it forever! It didn't fall even with half it's armor knocked off!" Baeros says between heavy breaths. Then he looks at Ouragana, "If we hack the other one will it get free of the web?"

Brock points to Drav's sword, entangled in the webbing. "I don't think it can be hacked, not without losing our weapons to it," he points out bluntly.

"The web will last not quite an hour and a half, or until it is burned off" Ouragana answers Jocalyn's question. "Anything will stay stuck in it just like Drav's sword."

She bends down to pick up the helmet and examines it carefully.


(OOC: I had hoped for a quicker answer to my question about the helmet's position, I was afraid that Ouragana had to pass the other suits of armor to get at it)
There's more to me than meets the eye...

"With that one trapped, it gives us some freedom to check out this side of the hallway," Jocelyn says. "Providing that we don't set off any traps. Where did our invisible friends go?"

Ouragana picks up the helmet and examines it carefully. It's an open-faced black helmet made of steel with horns on it to make it appear more intimidating. There is no head inside, or anything at all for that matter.

"Why?" Baeros asks Gallath. "It's magical. If that... that... THING! can't get free from the web, what makes you think I free the sword? I think it is better if we don't mess with it." He concludes, but then adds, "If you really want, you can tie a rope to the sword handle and I can pull it. Just don't get caught in the web yourself."

Jocelyn turns her head in the direction of Granite's voice. "Did you find anymore traps?" she asks.

Baeros looks at Ouragana, then Jocelyn then shrugs put his hand on the handle saying, "Oh well... but if I get caught you will be the first one I'll look for once I get free." He tells Gallath and pulls the handle with all his might.
After a momentary surprise Baeros returns the sword to Drav and then changing the subject he says, "By the way looking for someone... Maybe Hopper got here somehow. I hope he didn't sprang too many traps. Hopper! *whistle*"

===================================================
(OOC: The characters don't know it is possible to pull the sword free having STR of 13+... On the other hand Baeros saw Drav try to pull the sword without getting stuck in the web so he agrees eventually to try himself.)

Much stronger than Drav, Baeros is able to yank the stuck sword from the webbing. His whistle is not responded, too, however. Either Hopper cannot hear him or cannot respond.
