Mads the Enlightened

Mads takes the coin purse, but leaves the lizard. He regards the hobgoblin curiously and pulls his blade away from the creature's neck. "Bertee is safe with you." He muses for a moment. "What's your name?"

The hobgoblin snatches the dried lizard away and covets it like a prized pet for a moment, before suddenly realising that Mads is still looking over him.

He stuffs the lizard back into his jerkin protectively before straightening his shoulders somewhat and muttering, "Am's called Snart,".

Mads the Enlightened

"Well, Snart, you'll get your coin purse back and then some..." he says, jingling the pouch, "If you help us find a vault in these catacombs."

Snart licks his lips slowly, as his eyes dark furtively back and forth between the point of Mads' blade and the bodies of his dead fellows... Mads can almost see the poor fellow's brain ticking over.

"Tha vault," he says suspiciously... "is in there?". He points at the door which Rufus is inspecting, wary of some trap of logic that he hasn't yet grasped.

Mads the Enlightened

"Rufus," he calls. "Would you mind if my friend, Snart, here, opened that door for you? I'm sure he would know of any traps on the door..." He points his sword down at the hobgoblin. "Right?" he asks calmly, with only a hint of accusation.

"Good idea!" remarks Dugel the Dwarf with a sinister smirk.

Wendel coughs and wheezes in the background.

Snart looks askance from the corpses of his fellows, to Mads' sword, to the door with a worried frown.

"We can't opens da door," he hisses unhappily, "It's lock-ed, it is."

Rufus stops what he is doing and waved back to Mads and calls back, "No problems, happy for Snart to open the door".

Rufus moves back from the door, has a though and looks above it for any numbers...

Then he will keep a sword and dagger ready and keep in the shadows, when Snart opens the door.

While Rufus is waiting he will search the dead hobgoblin bodies for anything of value, like a key.

The bodies of Snart's three fellows are covered in rubble... to search them Rufus will have to shift a couple of hundred pounds of the stuff, which will take at least ten minutes.

Mads the Enlightened

"Locked? Well, maybe you should try anyway." he says, beginning to lose what little patience he had roused earlier.

Rufus does not what to move rocks so he goes back, and does an other search for traps around the door, its frame, the floor and above the door, and the handle and lock. Then have an other listen on the door. Just to be on the safe side.

"Wendel be a good person a nd hold a light up for me to see better. I want an other look at this door to make sure its safe to open. Thanks", says Rufus.

Wendel coughs and splutters, but eventually comes forth with a lantern which he labouriously ignites (to Dugel's immense frustration) and then holds over the doorway.

Snart stands gloomily by at sword point and allows Rufus to investigate the doorway once again...

[1d6]

Rufus is convinced as ever that the doorway is quite un-trapped, at least on this side. There are no spikes, springs, wires, or levers, or trapdoors that he can see.

What now?

Mads the Enlightened

"As you please, Snart." Mads says, jabbing in his direction with the sword.

FYI -- Snart only had to stand by to make way for Rufus to complete his doings...

Are you intending to slay him, or to prod him into action?

OOC: Prod him into action. Mads wants to see Snart attempt to open the door.

Snart hisses and fusses under Mads' jabbing sword point, and quickly reaches the door where he rattles at the door knob over zeaously, but it doesn't budge.

"'Tis lock-ed, 'tis lock-ed," he whines, but doesn't stop rattling at it.
