As far as Thist can tell there is absolutely nothing magical about the safe. They hear John shout from upstairs.

//Just so you are aware there is a time limit in place until the Harmonium get there given the nature of the game it is measured in the number of posts that you each make as opposed to actual time. Make them count.

[*Selebius]

((There was no window in the Sitting room above, correct? ))

[*LiquidDreamer]

"This is my last knock spell I prepped. We better not come across anymore locks."

Thist casts the knock spell on the safe and waits to see if the safe does unlock.

[*Midnight]

As John creeks the door open he sees little at first, but poking his head out a little further he sees Harmonium. Lots of Harmonium. It seems the two troopers have gone for renenforcments. They are knocking on doors and where there is no answer kicking them in and dragging people they believe to be responsible for the disturbance from their homes. They are at the far end of the street right now.


//Can I have a spellcraft roll for Thist please.

[*Midnight]

As the spell is cast there is a metallic scraping sound and the door swings open. Inside are several bags filled with jink, a scrap of paper and a few empty bottles with the residue of some sort of clear liquid still inside. Oddly in the base of the safe is another keyhole.

//Spot roll please. And although I did not mention it I find the idea of a sitting room with no windows odd. So there is one it faces the front of the house. OOC posts do not count towards the time limit of course.

[*Selebius]

((Thank you for clearing this up. Roll is 10, Wis Mod +3 for a total of 13))

It would normally be easy to miss but Norman has seen this before. The base of the safe is on a pressure plate just like the one that triggered the trap upstairs the key hole must be a way to arm and disarm it. If something is removed from the safe whatever it activates will probably be triggered.

"Is trapped. Pressure plate device. What do you think how heavy the bottles and the scrap of paper are together? Pethaps we can replace them with someting of similar mass."
