The Heart of Darkness... [Main Game Thread]

The (Original!) Tomb of Horrors!!!
S1 by the great Gygax 1978. Everything adapted to 2e. This is NOT the Return to ToH written for 2e


Labyrinth of Madness!!! Previously Concluded (by TPK)
S6 by Monte Cook from 1995. Designed for 2e. IMHO this one is the tougher of the two, but not by much.

What was the result of this check?

oop, missed that one. Bryce's investigation of the wall opposite the Tormentor fresco revealed nothing new

"I can't leave him by himself as he normally is afraid when he is left by himself." Expressing his thoughts to the group. Zafron moves into the hallway.

He will walk cautiously through the center of the frame. Looking straight ahead and on the floor for any pits or moving floors.

A few steps through the archway and Zafron vanishes as well!

Tabbi and Elidyr shift nervously as their long-time allies disappear.

"We shall follow, but I won't force anyone who think this is our doom. If they are alive, we need to help them. If they are not... Well, it was great adventure, meeting you all." Galan says, then looks at his old friend, "Fladair, my dear friend, we came here to seek and root out the evil and we knew it might be our last adventure. Will you join me?"

"You thought it will be our last adventure. Faladir says. "You always thinks it is our last adventure. Just move on. Have some faith." and Faladair steps determinate after Zafron, and so does Galan.

[Bish, please describe the manner in which they pass through the arch. Sneaking to one side? Straight down the middle? some other way?]

With Van and Sorril in the rear watching closely. He will ask.

"Do any of us have any spells that will let us communicate once you go through that doorway?"

Galan and Faladair will stride in the middle of the archway slowly but surely. "Not that I know of." he responds to Van just before crossing the arch line.

[Bish, please join Squirrel Lord's private thread to continue for Galan and Faldair]

The others watch as both Galan and Faldair step through the archway and vanish in the same manner as the first two Mondoon Boys...


Tabbi and Elidyr exchange a wordless glance. Sorril turns to Van, If we cannot communicate, how long do we give them in a place such as this?

Tabbi says, "I can't wait any longer, I'm going in." She proceeds forward in the middle of the archway in the same manner as Zafron did. "I don't like this one bit."

Elidyr glances at the remaining Mondoon and shrugs his shoulders. "I guess this is happening. For good or ill I have your brothers back." As he walks toward the arch he tosses back a challenge. "Coming?"
