There is a trap, yet Robert does not know how to deactivate it.

Robert looks up to Khalfani. His eyes betray his worry.


"There is a trap here, but it is beyond me. Likely, it is magical. I don't think we should try to open it. Perhaps if we just move it with us... or ask Rizzin, maybe."


He smirks.


"I'll take a look at the drawers then."


OOC: Same procedure. Take 20 on a search for traps in the drawers.

By inspecting the drawer closely, there are no traps. As well, he discovers that the drawer has a false bottom. Inside the false bottom is a belt with some nice gems on it!

he exclaims.


"Can anyone check this for magic?"
"Ah, right... there are no traps here by the way. At least, none I can detect."

Khalfani says, "Very well, Robert. I shall search for magical auras...." The gnome concentrates and mumbles a few syllables.

Khalfani will see the same schools that were seen when the scrolls were magically detected.

Adam places gently his hand on Marilee's forehead and prays.

Valanth struggles to her feet, using her cane to prop herself up. "I do not like this friend of yours who lived here," she grumbles as she limps to the nearest available chair and sits down. "In any case, I do not have the spell needed to open a trapped box now."

Khalfani repeats Valanth's earlier determination that the scroll likely contains healing magic.

"Very well," he says. "If the trap cannot be disarmed easily, let us explore the rest of the residence. And quickly. It's possible that the triggering of the other trap may have also magically alerted someone else to our presence here."

After exploring the rest of the house, nothing else is found. Rizzin makes an appearance and tells you he Turned away some militia men with an elaborate illusion.

After healing Marilee Adam calls Robert:

"My friend I left you for last because you were less wounded but now I can heal you as well."

When Robert comes closer Adam gets his holly symbol and touching the man's head prays one more time. Then looking around to make sure everyone is ok he finally places his hand to his own head and repeats the healing prayer.

Seeing the belt Adam asks Valanth and Khalfani:

"Can any of you identify this belt?"

When Rizzin tells them about the Militia the cleric says:

"I suggest we take the chest back to the inn and leave Jacob's house. Rizzin do you know by any chance what is the belt's effect?"

The pseudodragon looks at Adam "It heals a person three times per day, Master Adam."

"This is fantastic! Do you think I can try it?"

Looking at everyone the cleric says:

"I hope you don't mind if I use the belt on myself as you can see I'm still very wounded and I have no more healing spells left. So unless anyone else wants to try it first I would like to use it a charge on myself."

"Feel free," Valanth says, shrugging. She winces and grumbles under her breath. "I vote we take the trapped box elsewhere, as carefully as we can. Perhaps we can put it in the middle of a big room and whack it with a stick to set off some of its traps."
