The Bir'vi Family Tomb

***Before you is a decrepit tomb, carved into a stone hill in the South-Western regions of Sida. Rumors have gotten out that the tomb's main magical defenses have worn away and have become a perfect beginning for green adventurers. When you arrive, you expect to see other adventurers, also wanting to plunder the tomb's riches.***

The only thing that stands between you and entering the tomb is a big double-door, held shut tight by a comically large deadbolt lock keeping the doors' bars together.

// Let's see how you solve this problem. From here on out, expect enchantments and traps. God damn it, the forum only has a 6-sided dice roll. Use this

*** Marcus straightens up. His presence becomes a bit intimidating as he stands tall at 6'2''. His voice seems to ring darker and more commanding than before as he nods at Zaku.

"Right then."

*** In a single move, he turns around, and brings his foot up. He then moves forward, extending his foot heavily at the door in an attempt to crane-kick it.

The lock breaks apart, but inside the lock is released a blue-green gas that flies upwards past your face and into the sky. You take 2 damage, it leaving light lacerations on your face as it passes.

Without a lock, the gates creak open an inch as a gentle but cold breeze flows from in the tomb.

Nuthin' for Marcus.

Suddenly without warning, a skeletal wolf bursts through the double doors, slamming them aside as it leaps forward, biting at Marcus, as no one heard it coming.

The Wolf misses Marcus, flying past him and landing in the desert sands. It regains its composure and prepares to attack.

***Marcus stumbles back a bit, nearly instantly drawing his morning star as he spins it around, looking at the wolf.

Marcus gets to attack first. Proceed.

***Marcus takes a quick step forward, as he raises his shield slightly and twirls the medium-sized mace around in his hand once before quickly bringing it up over his head, and down at the wolf's head.

A natural 20 for a morningstar makes a crit, a total of 18 damage.

The skeletal wolf falls to pieces, but at that moment, the door bursts open and two humanoid skeletons walk out, brandishing scimitars.

They cannot do anything this turn, so it is John's turn.

The attacked skeleton seems to be slightly aggravated by the clawing, and slashes at the bird.

The bird is slapped backwards with the side of the sword as feathers are sent astray into the air. Your bird has 1 hp left.

The second skeleton's initiative doesn't beat Marcus' so he goes next.

(Note; you can prepare a spell more than once, like say if you wanted to prepare Magic Missile more than once. Magic Missile also never misses in DnD 3.5, so there's never any danger of hitting an ally.)

*** Marcus reels his morningstar to the side a bit, then lashes outwards with it at the nearest skeleton.
