With the pulling of the lever, flying infernal creatures come out to attack. We try to run around the room pulling the rest of the levers. With each pull more creatures come out. Ja’boc goes down shortly after an amazing leaping attack on one of the creatures. Grasshopper and Ping Pong get to the last of the levers and we finish off the last of the creatures. Darien stabilizes Ja’boc. The doors are now able to be opened.
We take a short break so that Darien can do a Prayer of Healing. Then we clean up: I recover spent silvered bolts, some check on the doors, some check on the fountain that hurts, some release prisoners. They retrieve a box from the acid fountain.
We enter a room with a roulette wheel and 3 coin slots. I try it first with three coins. I move faster (35’ until next long rest), lose all my hit die – and then fall unconscious. Darien heals me. Not serving as the bad example I hoped, others try their luck. Ferzith also falls unconscious; Darien heals him and is out of spell slots (after divine recovery used). Other notable wins include a +1 dex to Ping Pong and a pet couatl to Darien. Ping Pong now smells delicious to monsters. Then we disable the ballista with mage hand and a torch, getting to a chest containing some art items. Then J’aboc decides to take a greatsword from the treasure pile by the stone golem. It’s +1 and cursed, called Skarpur. J’aboc comes close to taking it then refuses; Darien wants someone to take it so I’ll pick it up and take it but have no intention of attuning to it. J’aboc hands a lyre to Ferzith who accepts it (Lyre of Daghán Ó Dubhuir). We finally leave the room with the stone golem. We move down a hall and encounter a guard devil and attack, quickly defeating it.
We then enter a large room with a bunch of cultists and an evil person everyone else seems to recognize. (Ammalia Cantalever?)
Pretty sure we're fucked.
