Curse of Strahd

Ted is stunned briefly as the fire equipment is knocked from his hand.

“Are you a fool? Do you think this is a game? Just bust the door open, fire the house, and get out of here!”

Ted picks up his tinderbox.

“There’s no need to risk whatever is in here. And whatever is is a lot more prepared for us than we are for it!”

Fog kill us faster than whatever in here

Ted looks even more frustrated.

“I can easily clear the ‘fog’ with my magics. I know the exact spell which created it, and can destroy it just as easily.” he explains “I’d rather fight a bunch of water than whatever creature is waiting for us in here.”

Mukk starts laughing at the terrified ted trying to calm the own fear within him
He starts banging on the floorboards with his axe and feet trying to make as much noise as possible

See? Nothing here. Nobody care.

Ted attempts to kick down the door which just closed.

Waaugh! Let’s get out of here!

Brendan looks concerned.

fade stashes the two other stakes then plays a quick melody to give herself inspiration and strides off into the main hallway.
I’m going. she says to the rest of the party as she’s clearing the front room If you’re coming - keep up. After a careful look around, she chooses to cautiously enter the room on the south wall, near the stairway, with a stake in hand, and trailyns dagger tucked in her belt.

Dances by the fire to the quick melody

@Ted
You kick the door, but it does not budge in the slightest.

@Fade
You open the door along the south wall. This oak-paneled room looks like a hunter’s den. Mounted above the fireplace is a stag’s head, and positioned around the outskirts of the room are three stuffed wolves.

Two padded chairs draped in animal furs face the unlit hearth, with an oak table between them supporting a cask of wine, two carved wooden goblets, a pipe rack, and a candelabrum. A chandelier hangs above a cloth-covered table surrounded by four chairs.

Two cabinets stand against the walls.

@Fade

You see shards of glass from a broken window, but no windows are broken.

Ted searches the first floor for any windows he can break and jump out of.

Mukk kicks in every room door until he finds the basement or is interrupted

Wait - Before we go any further I think that AA should apologize for stabbing me.

fade instinctively looks up over the broken glass and then examines the room closely

I join Fade in the south room. I prod at the first cabinet with mt staff._

@Yzark

Nothing happens when you prod the cabinet with your staff.

I carefully open the first cabinet, ready to jump back if anything bad happens. I have my fire bolt cantrip ready, but I am reluctant to use it in fear that it will burn the house down.

@Yzark

The cabinet is locked.

These cabinets are locked. We need to find a key somewhere, or bash them open if they are not protected by some magic.

I yell out loud Hey everyone, I think we should stick together and investigate each room to get info.

Also,I think we should go upstairs first to see what we can get (and see what we can learn) before we venture into the basement.
