Tales from the Whitebox, Session 13

 In which...

• The party continues exploring the black dragon's lair.
• Discovers an armory leading into a hallway with the dead bodies of an orc and human, and another hallway which smells of human waste.
• As they explore, Thumb learns from Lap that he and Murder are part of the Alvanrealm, an isolated Elvish land where Murder was nobility before being exiled and maimed (hence Murder the Maimed) due to a prophecy that he would bring ruin to the realm. 
• Lap of the Dun Cloak was Murder's loyal companion and part of the Dorvenguard, who joined him as Murder searches for a way to avert the prophecy of ruin - though the prophecy is quite vague.
• Discover at the end of that hallway after their discussion, a trap room with a chest in the center. 
• Observe the room and see that it rotates in all directions, by 90s degrees.
• Thumb uses his grappling hook, securing himself to the door, and traverses the room to the chest to discover 600 silver.
• Successfully makes 3 trips and grabs all the silver pieces from the chest without dropping any, even as the room rotates to and fro.
• Coin gathered, they leave the trap room and return back to the thieves guild camp with their loot.

Current characters*: Thumb the Thief, Lap the Dwarf, Murder the Elf

*Of note I switched the game over to Cairn RPG (despite keeping the White Box name) so I'll be using Cairn's diegetic growth for advancement instead of levels.
