Strange World of Random doom Episode 3 write up part II

done in two parts as Bloger is being annoying about the bullet points and there alignment I cant get it to stop nesting them when I add more on the end of the post - I suspect fixing it would involve fiddling with the HTML and I don't have the time for that at the moment.

• The Door had no apparent hinges and appeared to be solid gold, Faz in particular was a bit fixated by this and Coradwin had to shoo him off to get a tracing of the doors pictograms which depicted spiders coming down form the moon and enveloping a temple in web and processions of hooded men approaching the temple it did not make too much sense however it seemed to duplicate the symbololgy on the arch outside but was much clearer naturally.

• Having made the tracing it was decided to open the door which after some experimentation was found to pivot about its central point. The door was a couple of feet thick and seemed to be solid gold as it had appeared when unopened

• This discovery sent the gnome and others into a brief ecstasy of greed

• The room visible beyond the door was dark, beyond the light of the company’s lanterns but skittering noises could be heard from the dark. Faz the gnome peered into the dark but whatever it was beyond the range of even his night vision, though it might just be that he was just too short sighted or still distracted by the massive great gold door next to him.

• It was decided to throw a torch in to give a bit more light, which they did revealing that the room was largely full of web and that the skittering noises where due to some really massive web shooting spiders on of which came and put out the torch with its web.

• A Plan formed here especially when it became apparent that there was more than the one spider in the room that we had seen. Faz produced the bomb he ahs prepared earlier but only after teasing and joking with Coradwin nearly to the point that he got a belt round the head about Coradwin fire balling the room. The plan being that since the Spiders seemed drawn to light he should toss this bomb thing in and we should shut the door – the spiders would be drawn to the light form the bomb and then killed when it exploded- worked out that the thing is some sort of alchemical fire ball sounds a bit lame but its better than the one Coradwin cant cast yet.

• The bomb was lit and tossed in and the door was closed and there was a lot of skittering  then a muffled boom  and after there was no sign of any skittering noise at all, the company reopened the door and found four badly scorched and dead massive spiders and the room largely clear of web.
