A dice with only 2 rolls.
I googled roll a D2 to get the result. A 2 sided dice, how does such a thing function? Sorry, new to all this.

I'm using this, you can custom set the dice to whatever amount of faces you like.

So, we've established the gluey film at the western end of the room is sticky and challenging to escape from should you make physical contact with it.

Here's a reminder of the situation.

  • The room curves around the outside of the central chamber.
  • At the eastern-most end is a wooden door.
  • Near this is a bookshelf with a couple of items sitting on it: a black powder bomb, and a fishing rod with a rusty hook.
  • At the western-most end of the chamber, a STRANGE GLUEY FILM is stretched across the room, from wall to wall and floor to ceiling, blocking all further access westward. It is semi-translucent, and in the light of the nearby torch (on the northern-most wall) you can see the room continues beyond it, but only for a short distance before all is swallowed up by darkness.
  • A metal door with a grating in the top (from which pours fourth smoke) and an inverted crucifix painted beneath it, sits in the southern wall of the chamber, to the west of the access corridor.

I'd like to try burning the membrane with my torch.

You hold the torch against the membrane and it catches light. It hisses and smokes violently!

Quick! Test Agility (d20+2)!

Oh dear. 5 + 2 = 7.

I’m acutely aware that I’m carrying a bomb. :lol:

Does the door at the end of the room have any sort of keyhole Fechr can look through?

Oh, I didn't see you say that you picked that up! So, you did?

Well, in any case, the membrane starts spraying you with acid from the hole that you've burned in it! You're not quick enough to escape its trajectory!

Roll a d6 for acid damage, followed by a d4 for your chainmail. Then minus the result of the d4 from the d6, and minus another 1 for your shield.

No, it does not. It has a knob you can turn, but no lock.

Giant tenderly applies some of his precious lard to Margar's crippling acid burns.

If I see a bomb, I take it. ;)

6 on the d6, 3 on the d4, minus 1 = 2 damage. I have 1HP left. :shock:

“Save your valuable lard, oh noble Giant! You worked so hard for it.”

While I assume lard has miraculous restorative powers, are there any other means of healing available to us?
