The Rift
Be sure to read and follow the community guidelines.
Dec 12, 2025 3:45 am
You find the Rift near dark. You know you need to find a place to shelter till daylight. The Rift looks deep and dark. Your new items illuminate the space around you, but you know you will need a rope or find a way to climb down to the bottom of the Rift. Nearby is an empty cave that looks safe to camp. Again, it is your luck that a large shelf and air pocket create a 25 foot high by 60 feet circular dome that is nearly dry and breathable, though the air is stale...

kind of confused. Why climb not swim? What am i missingNotes: don't have a rope. Have darkvision 120 feet.

You camp, more or less for the night. It is uneventful and you feel rested and ready for the day.
Dec 18, 2025 2:46 pm
After eating Varos is ready to proceed, he picks up his new staff"Are we ready?"
Dec 19, 2025 2:20 am
you move towards the precipice and you can see that there are many handholds to climb down. also, your weight belt will allow you to drift slowly towards the bottom, some 30 feet down.
Dec 19, 2025 7:50 pm
Handholds undwewater? Anyone understed why? Mole is surprised, but not for long. Eager to test his new toy (bow) he drifts down, holding his bow.
Dec 19, 2025 8:57 pm
Biscuit: "Mole, if you prefer, you could hold my hand instead." He then drifts downward.
Dec 20, 2025 2:52 am
You reach the bottom and on one side you see darkness, sand, and the beginnings of a stone path. The other direction you see darkness and more sand. Your weapon emanates a soft blue light that illuminates a 15' radius around it.
Dec 20, 2025 7:05 am
OOC:
is it a magical darkness that a darkvision can not see through? I have a darkvision 120 footDec 21, 2025 8:38 am
OOC:
@DirtyDwarf77 - can you remind me - your PC is Halfling, isn't he? No darkvision there@mathias0077 - Varos i believe is either elf or half-elf, isn't he? Darkvision 60?
I would like to postpone my PC actions until I have a confirmation.
I would also like to know if stone path follows straight these 120 feet I can see and if there are any other objects to right and left of the stone path.
Dec 21, 2025 12:07 pm
OOC:
The stones are about 30ft by 30ft square though they have been somewhat eroded you see they are made of granite and cut with precision. The path is two columns of stones like a two column grid, with the stones spaced about an inch from each other. This path goes off into the distance beyond your vision.The sea floor is sandy and in some places it is so soft, you can sink down into it, depth varies from up to your thighs to even deeper. There are small bottom feeders here that scurry off at your approach. Around you it is very uniform and seems like a very large plain of sand with only the occasional seaweed.
Opposite the stone path, at the edge of your dark vision are two black pillars spaced apart much like road markers though you estimate them to be about 15ft high each. There is a lack of detail at this distance in the slightly murky water.
Dec 21, 2025 12:41 pm
Mole puts his bow into the backpack. He don't want the light to give away his location.
I see a pair of pillars the other side, I will swim there to check for any guards who would try to ambush us from behind.
Taking off his weight belt and leaving it with Biscuit Mole swims to the pillars to check for any creatures. He is also interested to to see if any signs, drawings or writings are on the pillars.
"When we will be walking the stone path, I would prefer to be swimming some 50 feet to sides and in front. Whatever our enemy is - it knows we are coming. I expect ambush. Your shining weapons will create attraction/distraction and hopefully allow me to spot enemy before they attack. What do you think?"

Mole swims over towards the pillars. He sees some shadowy figures in the distance - fish, sharks, rays? Hard to tell. The pillars seem ancient. There is cuneiform writing etched into the surface of the pillars. They are made of a blackish green granite-like stone.
OOC:
A WIS check will deter.ine if you recognize the shadowy figures. Unless you have some language or Arceology background, you will not be able to decipher the cuneiform. Jan 7, 2026 8:24 am
OOC:
I only have Extra Languages: Giantish, Dwarwen
Could you remind me how do I to a WIS check? I searched internet and they only found "There aren’t any ability or skill checks as far as I know in S&W"
so do I roll 1d100 and consult Thief's "Delicate Tasks" table? DO I roll 1d20 as in modern systems? Perhaps 1d6?
My PC wisdom is 9 if that's of a matter here
I hope we could finish the job sooner though, let's go Mole swims forward along the stone path

There are no skills listed, but I don't feel that a surprise roll will be relevant. I HOUSE RULE that attribute checks are 1d20 vs. Attribute. Roll lower that or equal to the attribute for a success.Jan 9, 2026 1:35 am

Bam! Successful WIS check. You recognize the shadowy figures as 3 rays, most likely more of those intelligent ones.Jan 10, 2026 8:52 am

As far as I understand I would need to get in 120 feet range to see the enemy and then shoot with –2 range penalty, but +4 from thief backstab. With two attacks per round have a good chance I guess.

Remind me, with Dex 16 I roll initiative 1d6+1, right? ANd could you please remind me of surprise effect to combat order. If longbow rate of fire is 2 do roll it twice with surprise bonus? Jan 14, 2026 1:36 am
OOC:
SurpriseIf surprise is a possibility, roll 1d6 for either or both groups, as appropriate. (Roll only once for each side, not for each individual character or monster.) If the result is a 1 or a 2, the group is surprised. If one side is surprised, the other side automatically gets to take actions before the first initiative roll.
A party that includes a Monk or Ranger, however, is surprised only on a roll of 1.
It is possible for both groups to be surprised, effectively canceling out the effect on both sides.
And here is something really nasty: If a group is surprised, each person (or creature) in it has a 1-in-4 chance to drop one or more handheld items!
OOC:
InitiativeEach side rolls a d6 and the side with the highest result is the winner. One roll is made for each side, not for each individual. If this is the first round and one group was surprised, the other side gets to go first automatically, without having to roll a die.
At the beginning of a combat round, each side rolls a d6 for "initiative" — the opportunity to act first. The side with the highest roll wins, and that group acts first.
OOC:
Movement and MissilesIt is up to the Referee whether missile fire includes both shots from a weapon with a rate-of-fire higher than one; a longbow, for example, shoots twice in one round.
In many games, only the first shot is allowed in this phase, with the second shot being fired after melee and spells are resolved.
In this game you may fire your full Rate of Fire on your turn.

The Arc of Deep Blue does not fail Mole. Blue shafts streak through the briny water first crippling one, then the other Ixitzachitl. These are followed closely by a shaft from Varos that rips through the first ray and another from Buisquit that shreds through the second ray. Both are mortally pierced and drift to the ocean floor - lifeless...

Wonderful weapon Mole is pleased. And take some time to admire his bow before he remrmbers why are tgey here.

Jan 17, 2026 3:16 am
As you follow the stone path, rising from the ocean floor is a grand domed temple. It sits on a marble dais and is complimented by intricately carved white (alabastar? ivory) pillars. There are two statues flanking a golden door. On the left is a Mermaid of remarkable beauty holding a shell in one hand and a staff in the other. On the right is a Merman with a trident in one hand and a red marble globe in the other. These statues are made of a white stone as well.

Biscuit whistles and says: "Check her out, guys! Should we give this place a look?"
Jan 18, 2026 6:54 am
Biscuit, I am sorry. We need to stay in dark just a bit longer.
Mole volunteer to make circle around temple to see if there are any back doors or windows good to enter the building from unexpected direction.

Also anyone agree it is a good idea try to shoot some arrow at each statue just in case?
Jan 20, 2026 7:16 am
Believe a dwarf - an arrow won't do anything to stone statue. That is - if it is a stone statue.
Besides - e explains - an arrow will illuminate the statue so you could really see how beautiful it is - Mole explain to his companion who don't have a darkvision.

Since I got magical arrows I think it is just a matter of time until I hit each statue once, no need to roll anything - right?Jan 21, 2026 1:28 pm
Mole blasts each statue, engulfing them in cerulean light. They remain still and undamaged as the holy light diminishes to the weak dim light of the depths.
Jan 21, 2026 3:16 pm
I guess we enter, don't we? Mole say and comes close the the doors looking at them, but not daring to enter
I guess we enter, don't we? he repeats
Also - do doors have a keyhole or any other features of worth mentioning?

Biscuit: "What’s it say? Does it tell us how to turn that beautiful statue into a real person?"
Jan 22, 2026 11:48 am
Mole laughs at Biscuit's suggestion and tries to joke back:
- I guess it is say kick the doors open and miss to mention "be ready for a fight for your life". Umm actually. Fight to safe whole world.

Jan 24, 2026 2:43 am
He gently pushes the doors, but they do not open. He pushes harder this time and they still will not open. Mole uses his mighty thighs and shoulders to try to force the doors open but to no avail. The won't budge.
Jan 24, 2026 1:38 pm
Varos will move up to the doors and place his gifted against it and try to open them.

Mole: Since mother hush didn't instruct us how to get inside I assume doors are simply blocked, will need to find another entrance or wait until ht gets outside - it can't conquer the world without contacting it's minions, can it?
Mole will go around and check for any windows or cracks in wall

Varos will walk over and see if he can remove the orb and then place it in the the shell of the other statue.
Feb 7, 2026 6:34 pm
Varos finds that the orb spins in place, though it cannot be removed. He also finds that the shell is delicate and very lifelike. He begins to rub the shell and the doors begin to open on their own...
Two mighty doors glide silently open revealing darkness within. Yet at it's center, near the floor, in the distance is a wan and pale yellow light, pulsing, nearly imperceptible, but definitely there, about the size of a man, though orblike in shape.

OOC:
Oh no! OK Varos needs attention fast!DAMAGE AND DEATH
When a character (or creature) is hit, the amount of damage is deducted
from hit points. When total hit points reach 0, the character
is unconscious, and if hit points are brought down to –1 or lower,
the character dies.
A good potential house rule is attributed to Gary Gygax’s
gaming table, a rumor that might or might not be true. It
allows a character to remain alive (although bleeding to death
at the rate of 1 hp/round if no assistance is rendered) until the
character reaches negative hit points equal to the character’s
level. In other words, a 5th-level character actually dies only
upon reaching –5 hit points.
By this logic, Varos has one more round after this one to stabalize. He is the only one that has acted at this time.

Using my Bow's feature It also allows you to increase your AC by +2 for 1d4 rounds once per adventure.Total is 19
This thing is WOUNDED for sure.
(So when I use the term WOUNDED, that means at least half of its hit points or more are gone.

Players, do we want to take a breath and attack it in a few moments. I guess it should end this combat and start another woth with a surprise round. If one side is surprised, the other side automatically gets to take actions before the first initiative roll. Wouldn't it? Mar 3, 2026 12:28 pm
OOC: It knows we are here, so I doubt anyone or thing will be surprised.

You mean, if we start new combat and ichor roll better it will attack us before we attack it even though it is asleep until we attack it... I guess need DM to tell:
1. If we attack now on round 2 will ichor attack us back on the same round
2. If we decide not to attack this round and next round ichor wins initiative - will it then be able toattack back after we attack on our initiative?

I thought we had to kill this thing. Do we get any pluses to hit since it is asleep?Mar 6, 2026 6:10 am
OOC:
We had to kill, but we don't have to kill it this second. I'm walking around to check of there are more enemies ready to ambush us. If you think your PC is in a hurry to kill just go ahead and attack. I'm user to play games where everyone roleplay their own PC and we aren't really a party, just bunch of strangers, so following different strategies is rational. Mar 6, 2026 10:48 am

The creature is struck by Biscuit and Varos. A blast of Ichor explodes all over the temple. The heroes are flung back towards the Temple's ornate doors.
After a brief moment, the water is clear of the yellow pus colored ichor. The temple begins to brighten until it glows an incandescent blue, transforming from a place of corruption and darkness, to one of beauty and light.

now you can retire my friend. Mole answer.
I guess sea Elf just got their temple back. Everyone's a winner. Mole add lokking at his bow.
Mole suggests to take a breath in temple before moving back home.

Looking around after the fight is over"Well done lads. Shall we look around a bit to see what might be around?"
Mar 9, 2026 3:24 pm
Once the area is lit with this airy blue light, you see three portals, and you also see colored pillars of water swirling in columns.
Mar 10, 2026 9:55 am
We should go check Priest's well being, shouldn't we? Then we can come back to use any of the portals if you wish
OOC:
In the picture I see text explaining where portals lead to, but do my PC see these instructions on the floor? Do they have any idea where the portal lead to?Mar 10, 2026 11:01 pm

On the map you see them, and recognize the village of Saltmarrow and the driftwood island. You would have passed by Driftwood and been able to see what it looks like. The third one is unknown to you.Mar 11, 2026 6:17 am
Go back to shipwreck, find priest there are maybe the deity. Any of them may share some insight on Cairnstone Isle. How does it sound to you?

Ok, a quick search reveals a small treasure chest. Within you find:
Armband of Strength: This band bears the
symbol of a lion. When locked on the arm, it may
be commanded to raise the wearer's Strength
score to 18 for one turn. It functions three times
per day.
Cape of Disguise: This cloak allows the
wearer to change body shape into any form of the
same approximate size. It does not change facial
features, voice, size, etc., but merely the appearance
of the arms, legs, and body.
Gauntlets of Dexterity: These gloves raise
the user's Dexterity score to 18 when worn. The
user gains all the bonuses derived thereby.
3 healing potions
and 1200 gold pieces.
The Ichor was worth 175 xp.

I think I deserve the potion though for fighting.

by the way, it is a bit funny that "small treasure chest" weight 120 lbs . How about Archimedes' principle? Does it work in this world underater? Mar 15, 2026 12:46 pm
