Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh (This is the Game Thread)

Desolate and abandoned, the evil alchemist’s mansion stands alone on the cliff, looking out towards the sea. Mysterious lights and ghostly hauntings have kept away the people of Saltmarsh, despite rumours of a fabulous forgotten treasure. What is its sinister secret?

Not getting an answer, Kim looks at the broken section of the gallery from below, then climbs up the stairs. Looking at the gap again, it seems ridiculous to fall through that hole, so with a deep breath, it is attempted again.

1d20=9, easy pass

Kim walks into the corridor and looks for Brax, Vee and Searos: "Amon has been taken through a secret door in the cellar and I can't find out how it is operated."

"Really?" Brax asks, spinning around swiftly on her heels. "That must indeed be a unique door. I believe these are poison." She adds, pulling in close to kim for the briefest second she whispers. "Watch him."

Turning she leaves the room, vaulting over the gap and heading down the stairs.

Searos notes the coins are strange, an imprint he has never seen before, a wolfs head. Yet they are gold.

(actions needed from Searos, and Gunther, Echo will be free in two "rounds")
" Kid never learned to clear a room. Doors and corners, I told him. Doors and corners."

Gunter stays in the room with Echo, waiting for help to arrive and cursing Searos' name

Echo looks up to Gunter rather helplessly. She couldn't say anything or do anything except maybe wiggle her fingers a little. She could only hope that this wore off soon.

Kim stands at the door, arms crossed, legs crossed at the ankles, watching Searos and not hiding the fact in the least.

Searos watches as Brax leaves the room, a question on his face as to what she's doing. He also looks at the gold coins wondering what they could mean. "I think we may have figured out what they were smuggling, though I don't get it just yet."

He gets up to follow after Brax, deciding to figure out whats going on.

Brax enters the Basement just as the Echo's starts to feel her limbs recover, she is followed soon after Searos.

"What appears to be the Problem?" She asks, striding in, glancing at Gunter and the fireplace, "Ahh, you were looking for that." Pressing a loose brick close to the top of the fireplace. A small door appears revealing bright light from behind the door.

Turning she regards Echo Curiously. "Incapacitated? Drugs.." She nurses one of the small vial''s she found in the chest.

Didn't want to make her come in and deal with it, but as she was asked...
Find secret door. 1d6=2 Success.

Searos looks around, wondering what in the hells is going on and looks at Gunter.

"We leave you alone for a few minutes and this happens? Seriously?"

He looks down at Echo, "And what happened to her? What happened to his Lordship? What is going on?"

"Vee? Miss Veelayana? I think the more interesting things are happening downstairs right now."

If Vee turns and looks up, she'll see the mage holding the door open for her, giving a little bow if she comes.

Vee looks up for a moment. "I'm comming, yes, "
she grabs a hand of the gold (not very unobtrusively) and put it in her poket. "I'm comming" she grabs another hand "now!"

as she walks next to kim she smiled as a sweet innocent virgin.
I am NOT sweet!

"I've seen you, miss Vee" is Kim's dry comment as the young woman passes.


(ooc: do we need a dex check to jump over the hole in the gallery?)

(Lets assume no, as the others didn't, Echo is now free to move.)

Echo slowly pushes herself up into a sitting position. "They know we're here, and that we are on to them," she says.

Vee and Kim arrive when Echo Starts to sit up, the group is now rejoined, yet Amon is absent.

"They have Amon?" Brax's face drops slightly, "That is a sad state of affairs."

"Are you well Miss Echo?" She turns, showing concern.
" Kid never learned to clear a room. Doors and corners, I told him. Doors and corners."
