Re: DaleOfShadows: Maztica, 14 Eleasis
Tabby was TERRIFIED of stumbling into a trap. When her parents were adventurers, her mother's job was to ensure her party did not fall into a deadly trap or alert monsters. She would tell the young Tabaxi horror stories of the traps she would see that had taken the lives of previous adventuring groups. There were horrible pits that we opened up sending people into spiked traps. There were giant mouse traps that would snap people's heads off!? Ones that would drop heavy anvils on their heads! And ones that would send poison darts flying!
For now, she will stay with the bard and watch his back. She will also randomly scan the room. (Perception +6). She will not touch anything or even give anything a dirty look. She will keep her hands at her sides. She will think only good thoughts. Traps do not hurt good kitties and she was a good kitty!

"Good Morning Boo.", Tabby whispered as she rubbed her eyes. She was able to get a little bit of rest and thankfully the creepy undead decided to sleep in for the day. Once she was on her feet, she scooped up her backpack and placed it on her back.
OOC: Have Brother Ashley get behind North. Tabby will get behind him. Or Flynn. She does not want to be at the end, fearing undead or other monsters will grab her by her tail. She believes Cerina will be much harder to drag away than the Tabaxi.

Sweet William?suggests returning to the jungle cat room after a short rest.
Opening the door from the burial chamber back to the corridor, you notice the pungent odor of burnt hair. Crossing the hall to the short door, the Half-Orc opens it and the burning smell gets stronger. No smoke or flames can be seen.
The tunnel back to the secret door from the Wildcat room is only 3 feet high so everyone but?North?has to crawl.
In what order do you travel?
/DM
OOC- you crawl to the Secret door in the lower left corner of the image.
And what do you do?

Flynn?ponders the water girl¡¯s message about the Court of Cemanahuac.

court and a giant slug, the prideful daughter of the moon. The cult was one of the few places in the realms where Flynn wasn¡¯t physically attracted to anyone at all.
No, wait. Not that message. S?t?. The evil Bat-God of disease and plague.

Sweet William?ponders the next move. Just outside this room is the 45 foot wide, 10 foot across empty corridor with the door leading back to the
secret door in the wildcat jungle room.
You didn¡¯t get a good look due to all the attacking wildcats, but the wildcat jungle room did have several doors around it.
