The Heart of Darkness... [Main Game Thread]

The (Original!) Tomb of Horrors!!!
S1 by the great Gygax 1978. Everything adapted to 2e. This is NOT the Return to ToH written for 2e


Labyrinth of Madness!!! Previously Concluded (by TPK)
S6 by Monte Cook from 1995. Designed for 2e. IMHO this one is the tougher of the two, but not by much.

"Let's leave this trap door for now and I'll go scout out the illusion down the other part of this tunnel." Bryce heads back to the illusory dead end and pauses for a couple seconds to listen, and if nothing is heard, pushes onward through the illusion.

===========================================
(OOC: I assumed Bryce loses balance immediately after the illusion, so big chunk of his body is still visible from the way we come from and that's how Galan knows he need "help". But if not, he will pass the illusionary wall, notice Bryce situation and then lend a hand)

As Galan attempts to pass through the illusory barrier to aid Bryce he feels hands pushing him back...

At this point Zafron will say:

"Tabbi go see what going on. The rest of you lets get moving." Zafron will join Tabbi and head down the tunnel.
