Deserted Tomb of Geraptiku

Who would dare to visit the ancient deserted tomb of Geraptiku? It's been lost for an age, and now some dare to go into its dusky depths to find the treasure that has been rumored, yet none can get. Or...well, so the legend goes. But it's just legend, right?

You can go visit the Tomb in Geraptiku (as oddly as it seems) - just click here .

Those of you that visit there will get the following messages ;). You'll get the first two for sure, and then the one after that is totally random. It's more likely that you'll get nothing rather than something, mind you.

Deep within the ruins of Geraptiku lies a tomb that has been deserted for eons. No one knows for sure what lurks inside, but rumours have spread across Mystery Island. Most warn of the creatures said to inhabit the ruins. They say that if you value your life, it's best you stay away.

But others tell of a massive treasure left under the protection of the tomb's many traps. If you can get past these traps, Neopoints by the ton and artifacts like you've never seen are said to be scattered throughout the tomb. So far though, those who have entered to seek such a treasure have yet to return.

What about you? You've been standing at the door of this tomb for a while now. Are you brave enough to open it? Go on. It's just a door, right? There may be riches beyond your wildest dreams waiting for you inside... if risking your life is worth finding out.

The door, being made of stone and all, begins to slide open slowly. Very slowly. You could be here all day...

It finally comes to a stop about halfway up. Figures. It is a very, very old door after all.

You gaze into the darkness beyond the opening and can barely make out a path leading inside. It quickly disappears, giving you no clue as to what may be in store for you if you enter. Without you realizing, your knees begin to shake and your hands begin to tremble. Riches may be waiting for you just beyond this door, but you have a very, very bad feeling about this place.

You slowly make your way through the opening and into the awaiting darkness. The door slams shut behind you. How unexpected.

After being lost in the tomb for two days (living off fungus and rain water of course), you stumble across a room you haven't seen before. Could this be the location of the treasure?


*RAWR* ME HUNGRY!

That's definitely no treasure. A giant monster leaps out from the darkness and begins chasing you, all the while thinking about the best way to cook you for dinner. You should probably continue running.

You slowly make your way through the opening and into the awaiting darkness. The door slams shut behind you. How unexpected.

You've never seen so many traps in your life. Seriously. Someone must really not want you to be here. You wonder how many traps there really are, and who put them here.


OH NO!

And, while you were thinking that and not paying attention, you set off another one. You watch as the arrows fly right at you, but luckily [YOUR-ACTIVE-PET] was paying attention and pushes you out of the way just in time.

But while you're safe, [YOUR-ACTIVE-PET] suffers a bit of damage and loses some HP.

You slowly make your way through the opening and into the awaiting darkness. The door slams shut behind you. How unexpected.

You've been here for quite a while now. You don't know how many days exactly, but you know you've passed that same carving at least 14 times. Exhausted, you decide to take a break and sit down for a while.


EEP!

What in the world was that? You look down to discover you'd planted yourself right on topof a Petpet. Poor thing. You wonder how it got here.

Wait a tick! What's that under the Petpet? You shoo the little critter away and open the small box that almost escaped your notice.

[RANDOM-PRIZE]

It's no massive treasure, but it's better than nothing. With all you've been through, you decide it's best to quit while you're ahead and you quickly make for an exit.

You slowly make your way through the opening and into the awaiting darkness. The door slams shut behind you. How unexpected.

It's been two days. You don't quite know how, but you've managed to elude many of the traps mysteriously strewn around this tomb. Maybe it's a good thing you're so clumsy.

You happen upon a flight of stairs that leads down into the darkness. It seems to go on forever, but you finally reach the very bottom and enter the dimly lit room you find there.


FIDDLESTICKS!

You yell out in disappointment. This room is the treasure chamber you've been looking for but you discover that someone has gotten to the treasure before you. You could devote the rest of your life to finding this person and writing them a stern letter, but you have to get out of here first.

You slowly make your way through the opening and into the awaiting darkness. The door slams shut behind you. How unexpected.

The tomb presents you with quite a challenge over the next few days. Luckily, you've brought plenty of provisions and have cleverly made your way through every trap you've come across. Your mum would be proud.

Finally, after decyphering all the secrets of the tomb, you're led to the treasure chamber.


EUREKA!

You've found it. You've found the treasure of the Lost City of Geraptiku. People you've met once will now be writing to you asking to borrow Neopoints. It's every Neopian's dream.

[TOMB-PRIZES]

You search through the treasure and take back what you can carry.

If you win a prize, you'll win some pretty nice stuff. Well, if the petpet attacks you, then you'll just get one junk Geraptiku item, an index of which is below. On the other hand, if you strike gold, you'll get a random piece of junk and something really nice like a codestone or a bottled faerie; plus around 1,500 NP. So, that's pretty darn cool, no?

Here's a list of all the Geraptiku junk that may befall you ;)
