You descend the stairs south into a 30x30 room
There are doors to the east, west and south. There are thick cobwebs above you and the light from your torch also reveals a skeleton laying in the corner amid some broken wood planks and old musty looking bags.

What do you do?

3. You say 'good night'
Your voice echos off the cold stone walls and your torch continues to crackle. You feel something small and light drop onto your left shoulder.

What do you do?

4. You grab the bags
As you grab them they explode, the bags fall to rags and you inhale the decomposed grain dust that laid within them.

Take 4 points of damage from breathing the moldy dust.

What do you do?

11. You roll to escape
Your roll fails. You are trapped in the house of nerds. One of them comes up to you out of a dark corner.

"Excuse me," he says pushing up his taped together glasses and flatting his greasy hair. He is wearing suspenders and dark navy polyester pants. White athletic socks, and black dress shoes, and a plaid short sleeve shirt. "Would you happen to have a slide rule, kind sir?"

What do you do?

18. 1) send the party thief to check for traps
2) get the party cleric ready in case the skeleton springs to life, or if there are other undead around.
3) use something long to gently try to see what is in the bags. (I never made it a habit to lug around a 10' pole!)

20. Pull out a bazooka and shoot yourself in the foot with an axe.
Then you can bludgeon the bags and skeleton with the live grenade.
Then go west.
Then spontaneously combust for a while.
The go north.

22. Turn off the text-based RPG circa 1982 and play Unreal Tournament instead

I'd actually rummage through the bags and bones... and not looking for something to bag with my bone! :spray:
