The iron maiden golem stood still for a moment, as though focusing its attentions on its prisoner within, and indeed the sounds of Lizzy's struggles grew weaker and more intermittent. Liquid began seeping out the bottom of the torture chamber and dripping onto the floor, through the gap where the lid met the rest of the body, though the fluid was milky white instead of blood red. Still, it was an opportunity for Rayne to get in close while her opponent's guard was down, but in the end it turned out to be for naught, as her spell fizzled the moment her fingers made contact with the golem's iron hide, with barely a glow to show for it.<br/><br/>Grogza let out another roar and swung again, her body spinning a full revolution to build up momentum before smashing her axe square against the golem's centre. It was a testament to her strength that the iron lid cracked and buckled slightly inwards where the impact of her blow hit, despite her weapon being mere iron instead of adamantine. But the iron golem was still standing, many more such blows needed to bring it down - blows which there might not be time for, as the ferrous hulk suddenly moved again.<br/><br/>The golem's arm was a stubby, roughly cylindrical mass of solid iron, and it hit Rayne right in the gut with all the force of a baseball bat striking a ball, sending the archer flying backwards through the air. She crashed back-first into a wall and continued straight through the thin plaster into a secret room, coming to a stop only when she finally made contact with something hard and painful. Said object, being a chest that was the only object in the room, burst into splinters of wood and bands of metal from the half-elf sized object striking it, and a veritable armory of weapons and armor and items of all kinds, many radiating magical auras, erupted from the ruptured container. There was much more than the chest's volume could possibly hold, its contents covering every square inch of floor.<br/><br/>It seemed that Rayne had been thrown against none other than the secret container that held all of the store's inventory that wasn't on the shelves. This being a player-owned stored, at least formerly, all this equipment technically belonged to someone else. Quite a few pieces had a cursive "Lizzy" for a blacksmith's mark on them as well.<br/><br/>There was a second sickening whump and Grogza went flying as well, to land beside Rayne, while her greataxe went flying in the opposite direction. Grabbing the nearest weapon at hand, an impressive warhammer that crackled with electricity, the half-orc pulled herself and the half-elf back up onto their feet with a grunt. "We're not leaving Lizzy in there to get collared," the barbarian growled as she stepped forward again, while the iron golem towered high over them, standing in the middle of the hole in the wall that was the only way out.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Searching for weapons</div><div class="spoiler_body">As a full-round action, Rayne can search for useable weapons on the floor.<br/>Despite the clutter, there are enough weapons that she can find the weapon type she is looking for, whether melee, ranged, or 5 units of ammunition.<br/>However, finding one with the right magical enchantment is trickier and requires the use of an <em>appraise </em>check.
