Dungeon World

Omar: I don’t trust this room—I’m going to poke around a
little. I take out my tools and start messing with stuff.
I pull candlesticks and tap the walls with my hammer.
My usual tricks.
GM: Discern realities?
Omar: Oh yes. I discern all the realities. I got a 12. I want to
know “What here is not as it appears to be?”
GM: Well, it’s obvious to you that the wall on the north side
of the room has a hollow spot. The stones are newer
and the mortar is fresher, probably a hidden alcove or
passageway.
Omar: I want to ask another one. “Who sealed the room.”
GM: That’s not on the list, so I’m going pretend you asked
“What happened here recently.” Looking at the
stonework, you notice the wall actually bends out in
places. The work is shoddy and awful—looks to you
like the work of goblins. The only way it’d get bent out
that way, though, is if there was something pushing it
from within.
Omar: So either the goblins blocked it from the other side, or
there’s something in there that tried to get out.
GM: Bingo.
