More Narrow Escapes

[Malchia]

Have at it Gnevil.

[Asinjin]

Does Gnevil have any ranks in Use Magic Device?

[Hero]

No ranks. But I am knowledgeable in scientific method and therefore capable of systematic and methodical evaluation of the boots. Which would-be-thief was wearing them? If it was one of the two who tried running we know they don't grant any sort of teleportation power or flight since they would have used it to escape.

Any markings on them?

I put them on and experiment with mundane movement (to determine if they are continuously active). Jump, run, try to walk up the wall.

[Asinjin]

On the inside of the boots, you feel a variety of symbols carved or burnt into the leather.  You can't get a good look at them without taking the boots apart.

When you begin to do you tests, you get the sense that when you try to climb and jump that the boots can help you, but you can't get the timing right.

*cough*... "use a mirror to get a good look at those symbols... might be worth knowing.  Or.. i can summon a undead rat to crawl in there, and trace them onto some dirt... if i can find some dirt.. Oh.. we can use the dead thieves ashes!"

[Asinjin]

Light and mirrors show you the symbols, Knowledge (Arcana) checks please.

Random.org = 18 + around 6.. if it's close.. let me know.  I have to check on the actual value.

[Asinjin]

You are certain the runes are dwarven in origin.  There are four, and you believe each one represents a different skill.

Harrick Grumbles..."Dwarven Ruins bah...you'll figure it out.. have at it."

[Asinjin]

The boots do re size to fit whoever tries the on; which to this point has been Gnevil and Emitx.

Give it here before you find a way to blow yourselves up.  Do I recognize the runes?

[Asinjin]

You in fact do, and you are fairly sure that the runes represent the following: jumping, climbing, running, sneaking, and balance.

[whitesword]

I try them on to see if they work as well as my current pair.  I start with just regular movement.

[Asinjin]

If you have Use Magic Device, than roll a check.
