Savant twitches a bit, but then acedes, letting Vivian go forward, holding up two fingers and then pointing down the hallway. She lets the stealthy one slip ahead, but then starts moving forward after a five-count.

Kidemonas ignores the darkness, his own natural sensitivity, combined with that of the armor allowing him to see nearly perfectly in the darkness. "If any of you need light, I would like to set all those vines on fire."

A Youngish looking woman with long hair starts walking down the hallway towards the group. "Hello! Is anybody there?" She calls out.

"Heracles no! Oh Eir, let him be okay." The young healer looks quite distressed at the disappearance.

As they continue and hear voices, she nearly replies. However, when Vivien suggested she would scout ahead and the Monokeri closes her mouth. Her surety in her actions shaken by the possibility that one of their number may have been killed. Silently, she prays to Eir for guidance/reassurance while she waits.

Rose glances back at Purvis, then looks back towards where the voice are coming from. She calls back, "If the person I am with is your friend, I'm not stopping him from returning to you. I certainly didn't steal him... or anyone else for that matter."

Just behind the young woman is a nervous looking middle aged man. He hides behind her, peeking his head out

"We took your friend? What are you on about? Did you put us in those capsules?" he demands, holding a pistol up, his hands shaking. If he fires, it could go anywhere.

Purvis is freaking out and needs calming down.

A simple social conflict will suffice, but will work better with someone who isn't scary.

Sensing the man's discomfort, Penny stowed her weapon and held her hands up. D-Bees? Maybe time travelers? They speak English, at the least...

"We don't know from capsules, we're just looking for our friend. I know you're scared, but if you could please put the gun down, I'd appreciate it. If you do that, you won't be hurt. And I'd hate for you to get hurt by a stray ricochet."

Purvis looks at Penny and then at her scarier looking companions for a moment. In the end, Penny's soothing words seem to mollify him for the moment and he lowers his pistol.

"What did your friend look like?"

Rose takes another look back at Purvis to make sure he is ok. Turning her attention back to the group. "We were in these sleep capsules. Probably from a long time ago. There was a third person, his pod failed a long time ago and he passed away. So I don't think that was your friend. You guys don't seem to be the ones that built this place. Anyways, my name is Rose." She pauses for a moment, "Hmm, I wonder if your friend is behind one of those magic light barriers. Oh we did run into a hell hound... I hope that wasn't your friend."

Garnet Town/Glade
Afternoon
Round 0

Vivian moved down the corridor with the weird magic force fields. She hears someone coming and warns the others, then slips into an alcove and levels her rifle, putting the scope on the pink-haired girl first. Kind of attractive. Focus, Viv.

The guy with the glasses seems to be the bigger threat, however, waving that pistol around, so she switched her sight to center on his forehead, remaining quiet and hidden, ready to spray his brains over the walls if he tried to pull that trigger.

But Penny talked the man down. They didn’t seem to be hostile. Viv wondered if she should give up her concealed advantage. Finally she steps out behind the two, emerging from the darkness. “Sounds like you two are even more lost than we are,” she commented. “So who are you?” She kept her rifle pointed at the ground, but clearly ready to bring it up again quickly if it was needed.

Disappointed that the problem could not just be solved quickly Kidemonas nods. "So you are trapped here? Why not just leave out the door?" Looking around Kidemonas looks to Savant for an answer of what to do. She is the strongest warrior so she will know what to do. but she has been all weird ever since they came to the glade....

"So what do we do? Do you want me to destroy this building?"

Rose looks over at Kidemonas, "Well, we just woke up in the past few hours. So we were in the process of leaving out the door when we ran into your group."

She turns around to address Vivian. "I'm Rose... um.." thinking for a moment, "daughter of Forge. You probably don't know who that is though." She glances over at the other man, "This is Purvis, or at least that is the name he recalls." Rose takes a moment to appraise Vivian, looking her up and down, her eyes focus on the rifle for a bit before she returns her gaze to look Vivian in the eyes. "Who are you?"

Savant was almost gleeful when the woman stepped out and confronted Vivian, hefting her sword into a ready position--and then letting it slump back down once it becomes clear that talking, of all things, was going to rule this encounter.

As Penny reassures Purvis and Rose of their good intentions, Savant simply stands nearby, ready to intervene if negotiations take a turn. When Rose mentions the barriers and the hellhound, though, she immediately snaps to attention. "A hellbeast? Were there more of them? These light-barriers you speak of--where are they?" She starts forward, moving more with an intent to go to the chamber beyond, but, well, Purvis and Rose might not perceive it that way.

"Heracles may have dog-like features but I don't think he would be mistaken for a Hell Hound." The teen "unicorn girl" may not be human but she's not really scary either. "I'm Sula. Priestess of Eir and a healer. We came in search of Fandran on a mission from Either and when we entered vines attacked my companions and kidnapped Heracles." She nods, agreeing with Savant's question of where the light barriers are. "Those light barrier rooms do sound like a likely spot for both of them."

“Forge? No, never heard of him,” Vivian said. She gave a smile, not minding this Rose girl checking her out. “I’m Vivian. We’re the 3rd Special Exploratory Team from the Tomorrow Legion based out of Garnet Town, not far from here.” Vivian paused. “Wait, did you say his name was PERV-is?” She sniggered, tried to holding it in, choked, and then just lost it, falling back against the wall, laughing uproariously.

She gives Vivian the side-eye but decides that she is not going to be the one to clarify for the poor nervous man what the joke is. She follows Rose as they are led back to the light barriers. Once they reach them she calls out. "Hello? Is anyone in there?"

Vivian giggled, managed to get herself under control again, and put her arm around Rose as they went further down the corridor, examining some of the lighted alcoves. “I’ll explain later,” she told the new girl, and couldn’t help the snort that escaped.

“So you came out of one of these?”She leaned in close to one of the colored fields, but was careful not to touch it as she examined it. “Any of you magic types know what this is?”

"I see. That bad, huh?" Rose shakes her head, "No." She points over to the doorway down the hall. "We were in capsules... sleeping pods in that room over there."

Turning her attention back to the force field. "There was something that hit the field but it seemed to get weaker after it did. We were scared for a bit it was going to break out and attack us. We.. well at least I thought it might be another hellhound." She looks over at Purvis. "I'm not sure what he thought."

@Penny Wise

Savant pauses, her painted-on eyes turning to face the light wall under discussion. "Ah, so those exceptionally flat walls are actually energy barriers of some sort? Interesting--I just thought they were very smooth walls. Whatever they are made of, my senses cannot pierce them."

She turns to Penny. "Well? Do we examine the pod-room, or do you wish to try to break into one of these light barriers, first?"

Kidemonas listens to the discussion and lifts one of the sleep chambers up to see what is under them. Then opening it to look inside, he decides whatever these things are they are likely some sort of TW mechanism because he does not see anything that would keep you asleep for years. Perhaps the man and woman are lying?
Then walking over to one of the energy walls he asks. "Do you want me to break one open? I could smash the wall around it, or even smash the wall itself open."

Kidemonas walks up to the wall and warns everyone back from it. Then drawing his blade he drives it into the wall next to the force field trying to slice or destroy the area around it so the whole thing will fall to the ground like in the stories.

With a specific room identified, the teen doesn't wait longer for someone to make a decision. She isn't sure how strong the magics are creating the light barrier, if it is even magic. But it will be less of a headache to just dispel it than to try to identify it first in this building with magic everywhere. She focuses on the entryway, offering a prayer to Eir to aid her.

She did, however, flip the safety off on her rifle, since there could be something else behind the wall as well.

Whilst Rose may not know what a Perv is, Purvis evidently does from the bemused look he gives the giggling Vivien. He seems to take it in stride though and pointedly does not say anything on the matter.
Sula wrote: Thu Apr 04, 2019 2:38 pm She gives Vivian the side-eye but decides that she is not going to be the one to clarify for the poor nervous man what the joke is. She follows Rose as they are led back to the light barriers. Once they reach them she calls out. "Hello? Is anyone in there?"

There is no response from the other side of the light barrier to Sula's calls. The only thing you can hear is everyone else speaking or breathing. There is no sound made by the barrier itself, but there is a slight hum from the boxing.

Penny examines the barrier with her cybernetic eye. The light seems to be ebb and flow, like a wave across the opening. Your eye picks up a few different energy patterns intermingled, but lacking any particular science training, you do not know what it means.
From the other side, your sharps ears pick up what you think you can make out is snoring

"I was petrified ... thought we were going to b..be attacked, though Rose killed the last thing she said" Purvis stares at the field, as if transfixed, "and at the same time, wondering why the voice was talking about the son of a Greek God."

He looks around at the others, his face confused and anguished.
"Ancient mythology, Zeus, leader of the Greek gods.... why do I remember that but I can't remember my own name?"

Kidemonas uses his great strength as he drives his sword into the wall at the same time as Sula unleashed her exalted dispel prayer.

The field dissipated instantly, revealing Heracles lying snoring on the floor, curled up in an otherwise empty chamber except for a strange electronic box that looked like it had been built by a madman.

However, Sula's spell encompassed more than just the field on Heracles' cell as it covered the area around them, touching on three other cells.

Everybody please take 2d6 damage attack from the electrical surge
Kidemonas takes 3d6 damage for using a weapon on wiring and being the closest to the surge.
As you blink away the effects, the ground suddenly shakes violently as you feel the entire complex suddenly violently reacts to your actions. Further down the corridor, you see junction boxes and sections of wiring suddenly start shorting out. From what you can see, none of the fields have gone down, but the nearest ones still up begin flickering.

There are several low growls from the nearby cells as several creatures move their way out of the cells, slather dripping from their jaws as they stare intently at you.

Savant is largely unfazed by the electrical surge, and when the hounds spill forth, she grins gleefully and turns to Sula, crying out in unbridled joy. "Oh, you ~do~ understand me! Thank you!" With that, she starts slicing through the hounds, backflipping over them as she comes down to strike them from behind, or falling on her back to let one leap over her and be cut open from beneath, the entire time her face looking like a child's at Christmas.

A shocking experience

[dice:zcff2dil]52433:0[/dice:zcff2dil]
The electricity that arcs through the dragons tingles. But then the beasts appear.

As the hounds come out Kidemonas almost forgets himself and cancels his power. Remembering how his transformation could harm everyone he instead turns on them with his sword.

But Kidemonas soon learns that fighting as a human sucks. The slavering monsters grab onto his arm and shaking him enough to disjoint his shoulder. "Owe, that hurts!" He shouts before loosing his temper he drops the sword he was carrying instead grabbing the beast with his bare hands he rips its head off roaring.

Fail takes 1 wound. Fast Regen will heal in 6 seconds

The charge dances around her but doesn't seem to actually do anything. She sees the HellHounds but one can hardly say 'Oops' after being gleefully thanked for her error. "Um, you're welcome."

Vivian grunted slightly as the electrical surge hit her and a bit got through her armor. It did little real damage other than set a few of her cybernetics a bit wonky. Already she was getting feedback reports telling her they were resetting.

“Ow…” Vivian said. Crazy Savant and the new girl were already rushing at some hell hounds that had been let loose by the surge and Sula was checking on Heracles. “I’ll cover you two,” Viv said, raising her ion rifle, taking careful aim at the hounds and blasting them with energy.

The arc of electrical energy strikes Penny as surely as the others, but thankfully the ceramics of her battered old armor don't conduct it well enough to hurt her.

The electrical arc washes over the squad; some are able to resist the effect, but others find it making its way past their protections.

It strikes Purvis, who screams in pain and collapses to the floor behind the others; being weedy looking and lacking armour, it overwhelms him. A hit of ozone slowly drifts into the air from where his body lies.

Penny's shooting is exemplary, picking off Hellhounds as they emerge, leaving only half of them for the others to finish off. Vivien's shooting, whilst not as accurate, picks off another as it bounds out of the cage that previously held it.

The hellhounds are all over Kidemonas, no doubt smelling the burnt flesh where the electricity struck him at point of impact. Angry at their attacks, he uses his prodigious strength to rip one into pieces.

Savant hacks her way through the Hellhounds with glee, bounding over them with ease and the joy of combat etched on her blind painted face.

Rose punches her way through another couple as they drop from her fists like the one she faced before.

As the others deal with the Hellhounds, Sula rushes over to Heracles, her empathetic nature making her worry more about him and and trusting that the more violent members of the team would deal with their attackers. As Sula checks him over, his breathing is consistent with someone whom is in a deep slumber, probably heavily sedated. Healthwise he appears okay, however, protruding from his head are the implants that grant him his abilities. The top of one of the implants is open and sparking. When the arc struck your group, it looks like it might not have been contained to just the corridor. This sort of technology is not your expertise, but it does not look good.

As the squad finish off the last of the attacking hellhounds, the building or wherever exactly they are shakes again; not as violently as last time, but certainly enough to make you find something to brace yourselves against.
Savant with her radar sense notices a slight shift in the positioning of the floor and walls as the rest of you in the corridor notice one of the lights back the way you came blink off and then it does not come back on.

Where do you wish to go now?
OOC Comments
Okay, hellhounds are all dead and between you, there are a few wounds.
Heracles is not getting up for the rest of the adventure, so it is either carrying him or leave him behind.

You have two directions that you can see; onwards to the room that Rose and Purvis came from that Rose knows is a dead end or back the other way in the direction of the darkness.

Savant calls out,"This place is in danger of collapsing!" She nods to Kidemonas. "If you carry Heracles, I will take Purvis."

She then looks to the others as she shoulders her burden on the left side like a sack of potatoes, then re-drawing her sword in her right hand. "Which way should we go?"

I'm assuming she's dealing with -2 encumbrance here--not so much from weight (he's probably light enough for her to carry without a penalty normally) as from the awkwardness of the bundle.

That can't be good. Be careful Kid. He's, um, sparking. I think they ripped out his implant.

Then she looks at Savant questioning where to go. Then over at Rose.

You're sure that this was the only way to go? There wasn't a door or anything else?


She looks at the others. People are injured but able to move for the moment. But where is Fandran? This is supposed to be his forge but it looks more like a lab and detention center than a forge. And a lab was where she saw him, though she hadn't seen the exact room yet. Then again, there were a lot of things in the vision that they haven't seen yet. She wasn't sure what to do. She chewed on her lip and scratched below her right ear.

"Everyone who isn't injured, help someone who can." She obliges by helping the nearest team member up. "Keep your guns out, there could be more. As for Heracles, I..."

She winces, looking at him. "That's not good."

Hearing the plan Kidemonas grabs Herc and follows Savant's orders. "I can do this, any one else lagging as he goes by he also helps support." Seeing Savant stagger a second with Pervice, Kidemonas grabs him and places him over his other shoulder.

With that, Vivian shipped up her rifle again and drew her vibro-sword, better to be silent and deadly than draw attention.

As somebody tries to pick up Purvis, he stirs and bats away at any hand that tries to help him. Getting to his feet
He looks angry and burned. He stares daggers at both Kidemonas and Sula.

"Are you trying to get us killed?"
OOC Comments
Notice -6 roll for anybody who pays close attention to Purvis and can actually see
Quickly spying into the now visibly empty cells, you see many more hellhounds inside sleeping on the floor. The three cells where they attacked out of are still mostly full.

Heracles makes a soft barking noise as he is picked up, but does not otherwise stir.

Heading back down the corridor, those of you who can see spot obvious fluctuations on the fields. The energy fields are rippling. As you pass one, the field distorts slightly as something seems to strike it from inside the cell; considering the entire field seems to bulge, it would appear to be something large.

The group reaches the entrance without further incident, though the area in front of you is still covered in darkness.

"I bring an ally, but we must be quick! There is not much time."
Marnot circles the area and comes to perch on Sula's shoulder, as far as possible from Savant's sight.

Not long behind him, the squad hears footsteps as a female figure suddenly steps out of the darkness in front of you.

Mei Ying

Following the bird is confusing, especially in the darkness and it keeps having to circle back to you when you lag behind. Eventually however, the bird flies ahead and all you can see is a stone corridor going straight ahead with no deviations to either side. Trusting that this is the route you must take, you carry on and in the distance, you begin to hear sounds; not the sound you heard before of a creature, but that of people.

As Mei Ying takes another step forward, her magically enhanced sight begins to make out a group of eight, maybe nine people before her. They appear to be mostly human but have not reacted to your presence yet.

Mei Ying
Image
On seeing the Altaran, Mei Ying stopped in her tracks and immediately began planning her options for battle. The Altaran would not be hindered by darkness at all, though her companions seemed to be. She would be fast, accurate, and...

Was that a Monokeri?

They were an elusive people, with unusual magical gifts. It wasn't impossible to imagine the vile Splugorth wanting them for bio-wizardry, but...sending one along with a warrior-woman?

And the raven had flown to the Monokeri's shoulder. Not to mention the Alteran's clothes were decidedly not the equipment given them by the slavers.

Something else was going on. She put her hands to her mask, calling on the kami within it to give her the gift of tongues, then moved forward, staff in hand until she could see the eyes of the non-Altarans focusing on her. Then she bowed. Time was short, but she wouldn't ignore the courtesies.

"Thank you, honored Monokeri, for the guidance of your friend. I am called Mei Ying, and I must ask for all of your forgiveness."

She straightened up again, a very pretty Asian woman who's face was painted white, with an odd symbol in red on her forehead, clad in an ornate red gown embroidered with gold filigree and the images of dragons and fantastic beasts along the hems, and bearing a staff that seemed to clutch a raw gemstone in the gnarls of its end.

"There is no time to exchange more names or questions now. This place will soon cease to be...but well before that happens, my pursuer will be here. We must leave. Now."

Savant initially backs off when Purvis bats at her, perfectly happy to let him walk under his own power. However, when he lashes out at Sula and Kidemonas, she snarls and gets very close to him, her vibro-blade humming menacingly between them, the tip almost touching his chin. "When you wish to speak to my trusted companions, you will address them politely, or not at all. If you fail to heed this warning, I will find use for your legless torso as bait to slow down any monsters chasing us."

She turns and is about to continue down the hall indicated by Penny when the raven emerges, leading someone else. She immediately prepares for combat, but forces herself to remain calm when the bird lands on Sula's shoulder. Then she looks at the new arrival, her own muscles tensing at the newcomer's opening stance. But then Mei speaks and she again checks herself, though the presence of the Avianati agent makes it hard for her to remain calm.

"As you say, we need to move. Although, if we are being pursued, it might help if you could tell us what to be ready for, if it catches up to us."

Mei Ying bows again and says, "I am very sorry to say I have not seen it yet. I heard it growling and moving towards me, and then I left as quickly as I could, following the bird. Our path was very complex...I think this place may be a prison of some kind. Designed to hold dangerous things inside, with the path out folded in strange dimensions."

"If that is the case, it is best to avoid confrontation with the inhabitants. Something has disturbed the integrity of the dimensional boundary, and it is collapsing. We must not be here when that happens."


She points to the hall behind the party.

"That way."

As Vivian scouted ahead, she noticed that the darkness seemed to have crept closer to the entrance. “Hey, guys,”she whispered over comms. “Is it getting darker in here?”

Then suddenly a woman appears out of the darkness. Vivian levels her sword. “Halt!” she warned.

She didn’t seem to be a threat, though, and seemed to know more about this place than they did. Also, she said something was after her.

“Well, I don’t know anything about such things, but being here when this place collapses doesn’t sound like anything I want to experience,” Vivian said, putting up her vibro-sword. “I suppose this being a prison of some kind makes those light fields more understandable. So why were you here? And Little Miss Pink Hair?” She gestured at Rose.

Rose watches a Purvis gets up and says "Are you trying to get us killed?" then she looks over to the others to see what there response is, not really getting involved in this.


As the group goes to move towards the entrance. "I can't see in this darkness." Rose seems to try to do something but it doesn't work. "weird."
OOC Comments
Rose tried to activate her power for enhanced sight, but she doesn't have it anymore.
If anyone has magical sight up, there would have been a spark of majical power flowing around her when she tried this.
Rose keeps her guard up as the make for the entrance.

As the bird calls out, Rose instinctively enters a battle stance and waits to see what happens.

After Mei turns out to be friendly, Rose relaxes.

"I won't know when it is." She glances at Purvis. How long was I in there? This gear is all strange to me. We had swords, bows, and spells. Returning her attention to Vivian. "My memories are hazy of when I arrived here and was put to sleep but I would think that It was long ago. We didn't have these... guns where I was from. We used bows. I guess there might have been something like it but they were very rare. This is a strange... world? time? I don't know. I'm not sure."

She winced when Purvis yelled at her but Savant defended her. Something disturbed the dimensional integrity of the place. Something like her spell. No wait, they didn't have time for thinking like that. They had already figured out the new person wasn't a threat, though questioning was still happening. "Thank you, Marnot. We have to go now. The darkness is coming closer to the entrance. We can find out more when we get out but she's an ally." She starts heading toward the only exit they know of and tries to get people to follow quickly.

Vivian stared at Rose. “No guns? Geez! I sleep with mine!” Of course, she’d grown up in the ‘Burbs, where if you didn’t sleep with some kind of weapon, you ended up raped, dead, or worse. “I’ll give you some lessons,” she promised.

"Fandran's forge is falling apart. If you leave now, gone will be the chance to save him," the raven said.

Vivian pulled up. “Great. So where is he?” she asked. “Did we miss something? Is he locked in one of these cells? Why would he lock himself up?”

But there is so much from the vision that hasn't been seen yet. How...no. Did you find him? Fandran is the owner of this? Forge. And someone that Eir needs me, well us, to rescue. She looked around. Do we need to check the other pods?

Rose looks at Marnot as he indicates a direction. "Elven, Wolfen, Faerie, eastern, and american, I can speak... bird is not among them. This bird seems to be indicating something. What is the plan then?"

Through the power of the mask, of course, Mei Ying could speak Bird, or any other language.

She looked at Rose. "He says Fandran is behind a door that he can't open, but that there's time to get to him and he can guide us." Mei glanced at Marnot then and said, "I question that conclusion. Who is Fandran, and why is he important enough to risk your..." she paused then added grudgingly, "...our lives?"

These people were strangers, but she couldn't just abandon them here. Their understanding of the dangers of a place like this was barely above that of children.

Though, one did mention it being a forge. Interesting. Perhaps the maze is less to keep things in, than others out? There may be something worthwhile at the center of it...if we can get in and out before it all collapses.

Savant looks to Mei, as she translates for the raven. "Short version--Fandran is someone Sula is looking for, in order to rescue. We are assisting in her search. She trusts the bird; I do not, but I will not leave her here, and so we are continuing on. If you wish to leave, you may, and if you wish to come, you can, but we should not stand around discussing it any further."

She faces Mernot and speaks with naked loathing for the avian. "Very well, lead us to the place you claim Fandran is located. Swiftly."

"If he's who we're here for, then yes, let's get him out. And if not, well: he'll be buried alive down here, and no one deserves that." Penny nodded at the newcomer, Penny being the opposite of Mei's poise - she was a scrappy bookworm that looked to hail from the Pecos Empire, carrying a well-maintained rifle, a battered suit of armor, a well-oiled traveling cloak and a bunch of books.

"I hope you're on our side, because I've had my fill of things trying to eat us, shoot at us, or otherwise be a pain in the patoot today."

Purvis looks at Vivien like she has grown another head.

"What are you talking about?" he sounds incredulous, "I know I was hurt by that electricity, you are just ..." he checks through the holes caused

"That can't..." he looks stunned, before looking over at Rose, "Am I like you?" his voice sounds slightly hopeful and pleading at the same time.

Note to Other Players and GM
I made a miscalculation when I made my avatar and forgot that Rose has a "Young Appearance" hindrance. She is supposed to appear around the age of 15. Essentially she has a "outsider" hindrance for looking like a child and people would regard her as a minor.

This is what she looks like.

"Like.. me?" Rose looks over at Purvis, looking him over.

That could explain why he was in a pod like me. I didn't see any runes on him.

"But.. I didn't.. You don't have any.."

Unless they are hidden. But my kind... we are hated. feared as to what we could do. Imprisoned for existing. Exiled.

She shakes her head, "You don't want to be like me."

Hasty. Rude. Undisciplined. All the things Mei Ying had been taught to anticipate.

But she could not simply leave them to their fate. They would still be arguing as the pocket unraveled around them, and were either catapulted into extradimensional non-space, or simply destroyed. If one was different than the other.

It would be interesting to see the results, really, but that was an experiment to conduct when lives weren't in the balance.

Mei Ying gave Penny a humble bow at the waist. She would at least demonstrate manners.

"I am honored to be on your side. It is said that when a place such as this vanishes, the result is not burial. Would that fates were so kind."

Standing straight again, she nodded.

"We must make all haste."

When people started following the bird, she went with them, reviewing what she knew of this sort of pocket dimension as she did. Could it be artificially strengthened, perhaps? Shored up briefly to gain a little extra time? Such a thing wouldn't help much in the big picture, but might be crucial if they found themselves in an emergency.

While I was searching for him I was directed by Eir to this group to find him and then later given visions directing me to search for Fandran.

Vivian listened to the others. She hadn’t traveled much until she came to the Castle, so she didn’t know where half those places were.

“I grew up in the ‘Burbs of Chi-Town,” Vivian said. “Stole from the wrong people, got caught, and woke up with ‘enhancements’ and a permanent contract,” she said wryly. “Until I came out here.” No sense telling them she was out here to keep an eye on them for the Black Market.

The tall human looking man says. "My egg hatched here in north America, not to far Southwest of Tolkeen. When Nicolas found me he realized I needed help and got me interested in helping people.

"I lost him in a battle where he chose to enter a Rift chasing a shifter. I do not know if he lived or where he went, but he is the one who taught me not to kill everyone who attacked me. Told me most of them where only scared because they did not understand me."

Mei Ying listened to their stories. There was a lot to unpack. Kidemonas had come from an egg, for example. One of the Great Dragons, perhaps? Or perhaps one of their lesser kin...even so, a great fortune to be allied with such a force!

But she couldn't focus on that now. The one known as Savant had said something that couldn't be allowed to pass.

She looked at the outlandish creature narrowly, noting the blank spots where eyes should be. How had she not seen it?

"You are not from Atlantis," Mei said coldly to Savant. "You are from a desecrated corpse. Do not use a name that means enlightenment and glory to describe the hell that your masters have made of it."

Penny coughed a surprisingly intimidating cough for someone as physically unimpressive as she. "If she were working for the Splugorth then we'd all be working for them and you'd be dead, and if she's not then by definition they're not her masters. Maybe back way the heck off, Person I Just Met?"

Mei was still for a moment, then looked back at Penny and bowed, pressing the palms of her hands together.

"Please accept my apology. It is a sensitive subject. I shall not allow such a lapse to happen again."

"Find this Fandren as quickly as we can, then get out," Mei Ying replies. "Before this dimension collapses around us and either crushes us, or ejects us into metadimensional nonspace, to drift forever outside of space and time."

Watching her reaction Kid must know. "So are you Atlantean then? Are you like Nicolas?" Thinking back on his mentor he says. "Nicholas was an Atlantean, he traveled with me and told me stories of the great heroes of Grecia. The 13 gods and their offspring, the titans, and the even some things of old Atlantis."

Post by Savant »

Savant seems almost amused by the challenge from the newcomer. "First, as Penny has noted, the Spulgorth are no masters of mine, not anymore. As for the name of a particular plot of land--what would you have me call it? There is a land mass in the Atlantic Ocean. It and the nation that once stood upon it are known by the same name, even if they are not the same thing. I can call it 'Occupied Atlantis', if you wish, but there really is no way to answer the 'where are you from' question without using that particular word."

Kidemonas finally realizes the tension in the air. The new line walker apears to be an enemy from the way Penny and Savant are responding he missed something. Looking to the others he braces himself and says over the team's radio. "Should I change? Is she going to attack should I release my form?"

Mei Ying simply shook her head.

"I have apologized," she says to Savant. "I have not...spoken...to any of their slaves who have broken free before. You took me by surprise. I am happy for you, and hope all of the rest can do the same soon."

She then glanced at Kidemonas and shook her head. "There will be no attacks from me. My people were from Atlantis, though that was before my time by far. Your friend Nicholas is of another clan, by the sound of it. I am Amateratsu, but the homeland is the same." She pauses then adds, "Was the same."

Finally Mei turned her attention to Rose.

"They are monsters from beyond. They have terrorized and enslaved and looted their way across a thousand worlds for a million years...and when my people's homeland returned to the world, they took it and made it a pit of depravity. Perverted it and made it a house of misery."

She was quiet for a moment, then added, "I have never seen it, or set foot on it, but every Atlantean of every clan is taught what happens...we are taught to feel the shame and violation as sharply as if it had been taken from us personally. So that we will never stop trying to destroy them and take our home back."

Rose starts counting fingers after Mei mentions millions of years then she stops and looks back at Mei, "Wow that's a long time... If they are that old... and um.. evil. Then I guess they work for the Old Ones? I might have killed some of them... so long ago." Her last statement just sort of trails off.

"Mmm," Mei hmmed, "It is believed that they were once servants of the dread old powers...at least by some. Certainly they are similar in some aspects to those creatures, in miniature. But it does seem unlikely that you personally killed any. Their minions, certainly, but it takes an army to kill one of the Splugorth intelligences. An army, and a way to stop them from escaping."

Sula frowned when Mei insulted Savant but Penny was quick to speak up in her defense so the Monokeri said nothing. She just listened to the conversation as they made their way toward the man she had been tasked to save. Well, they had. Eir may have given her the vision but it wasn't until she had joined up with the group so Eir must have known she wouldn't go alone. Her thoughts wandering made her think of her brother. She missed him a great deal. She hoped that he was ok. While her thoughts wandered her sadness reflected on her features and in the drooping of her ears.

Seeing the new wizard was not going to start killing people Kidemonas relaxes a bit. No one wants to be around when wizards start killing people, and in this tight corridor Kidemonas did not even know if he could change into is true form.

The group talk briefly as they steel their nerves.

“I’m not going anywhere except with Rose.” Purvis says resolutely, standing next to the young woman. He cocks the pistol and nods to her.
OOC Comments
Notice roll -2 – his right hand is trembling which he periodically stops by pushing his left thumb into his palm.
Marnot looks around at the assembled group and cries loudly.
“Caw!”
OOC Comments
“We must hurry before all is lost.” Sula hears
Mei Ying racks her brains of a way to gain them more time. She leans on the nearest wall and almost bangs her head on the power cables there. Anybody with any mechanical knowledge can tell her what they are.
OOC Comments
If Mei Ying wishes to think of a way to stabilise the pocket dimension, Mei Ying does notice the power cables on the wall

The squad and associates plunge into the darkness.

Dark-place-black-corridor-31000.jpg
Those of you with exalted darksight can see normally for a short distance

Those with Infravision can make out the shapes of those around you, but around you, there appears to be a lot of cold spots.

Those without any special sight must led through the darkness. Purvis grips ahold of Rose's shoulder

Marnot leads you through a seemingly never ending maze of corridors, it is hurrying and not looking back in order to ensure that you are right behind it.

Mei Ying can feel you are not alone; what she sensed before is near.

Sula feels something help guide her or at least always keeping Marnot in sight. Whether it is Eir, Marnot or something else, she is not sure.

Vivienne somehow finds herself at the back, even if that was not her original position. There is a sound behind her as the person in front suddenly moves and she loses her grip. The darkness intensifies around her and even with the capabilities of her suit, she struggles to see more than a few feet in front of her. Something growls deep and low in the darkness and something tries to grab ahold of her around the waist.
OOC Comments
Notice rolls at -3 to keep up without any sight enhancement
Exalted darkvision reduces this penalty to -1
Infravision and lowlight vision reduce the penalty to -2

If you fail the notice roll, then you become separated from the group in the darkness. Nothing initially will happen to you though apart from being lost and alone.

Sula only needs to roll notice with no penalties as she feels something helping guide her.

Those with Danger sense feel something following the group

Vivien - Something tries to take you in the darkness Agility roll at -4
If caught, a strength roll against TN10 to break free.

If either roll succeeds, a notice roll at -4 to find your companions is required, otherwise, you are lost in the maze of corridors, though you will be able to see more normally.



As those of you who make it through the darkness find yourselves in an alcove dimly lit by the same type of emergency lighting you saw before. In front of you stands a barrier;
1292ed3c0c77b405f5105ebd25175099.jpg
The door is large, at least ten feet high and circular, with ornate symbols on it and no obvious way to open it.


"Caw!" Marnot lands on Sula's shoulder
OOC Comments
"This is why I returned. I cannot pass it. Some of it is Asgardian, but other pieces I do not know
The symbols appear to be a jumble of different styles. Even Sula, with her knowledge of Eir, only recognises a few pieces.

It appears to require some manipulation of the symbols in order to open it.

Out in the darkness, those of you with danger sense feel something approaching.
OOC Comments
To decipher the symbols, everyone is allowed to roll against one of the following
Knowledge arcana - 3 successes required
Knowledge history - 2 successes required
Common knowledge - 3 successes required
Knowledge engineering or repair at -2 - 2 successes required

Anybody who can read techno-can gains a +2 bonus on engineering and common knowledge checks

Marnot can offer 1 success against either Arcana or history.
10 successes are required to open the door.
Something will happen if you can not open it during the first turn.

If you can apply knowledge of what you know about Fandran to your descriptions, there will be a bonus, but it depends on what you have realised and uncovered.

Penny has her rifle ready, her cybernetic eye making quiet noises as it tried to adjust to the corridor's thermal hot and cold spots. She sets it to record, just in case a record of what happened is needed - and she tells the others this in a low whisper, saying "if it's okay, I'm turning on recording on my eye. I ask, because sometimes people get touchy when they find out I have a robot eye that can record everything I see."

Upon coming on the door, she visibly relaxes. "Finally, something I remember." She examines the symbols, drawing upon her knowledge of history.

Garnet Town/Fandran’s hidden forge
Afternoon
Round 0

Vivian noticed the trembling in Purvis’ hand, but said nothing. Maybe a little scared? Well, who wouldn’t be? Though the way he treated it, maybe some nerve damage?

Then the lights went out after Mei Ying bumped her head on some power cables.

“Great…” Vivian said with a sigh. “As if this wasn’t difficult enough.”

Viv switched her suit to thermal, making out her companions, but also some odd cold spots. Weird. She found herself falling back as she helped others along the corridor. She heard something behind her, and as she looked, the person in front moved and Vivienne lost her grip. Her thermals started to struggle, obscuring her vision, reducing it to a few feet. Something was following them. The hairs on her neck were standing up.

Viv felt something grabbing her around the waist. She spun, pirouetting away, drawing her vibrosword. She found her vision returning and searched around for her companions. She heard them up ahead and followed their sounds, catching up as they entered another alcove dimly lit by emergency lighting and containing another barrier, a large door with no obvious handle or mechanism to work it. It was covered in jumbled symbols.

“Something’s stalking us,” Vivian told the others as she went up to examine the door. “It tried to grab me.” She studied the symbols. She didn’t know magic, so she was going to be of limited help.

Re: Adventure 3 The Search for Fandran

The darkness is extreme, cloying, pressing even against the magic of her enchanted clothing. Mei-Ying has to catch hold of the person in front of her and keep them within arms length.

"Yes," she says quietly. "The thing that came for me after I arrived here. Perhaps a...warden of some kind. Or guardian."

She runs her hand along the strange 'conduits' in the wall, musing to herself privately. The power to the lights was failing, and the dimension itself was becoming unstable. Coincidence that the two things were happening at once? Perhaps...

Unlikely.

At the door Mei squints a little and gives her magic time to translate the runes.

"Asgardian. Interesting. Not my specialty, but I know some basics..."


(does Speak Language help any with the runes? Mei was using that to communicate with the bird, as I recall)

"We have to hurry, something--" Then Vivien mentioned something trying to grab her. Well, so much for the forewarning. When they got to the door, she looks at it with furrowed brows, trying to make sense of it. "It's not just Asgardian. Some of it is something else. We know Fandran is a magic user and, well, at least very long lived if not immortal-ish. Maybe doesn't age but can be killed? Eir wouldn't worry if he couldn't be killed. He was also very protective of those he cared about and his secrets. He protected Widow Mikkelson from something she thought was called an Ashmedei. Then he disappeared when she tried to force him to share his secrets. There are some parts of my visions that we haven't seen yet. I'm not sure if this could turn into a mirror if we solve it. That was one. Another was a wooden wall with Traitor to Tolkien written in blue blood. Er, no one here has blue blood do they?" Her rambling is a bit distracted as if she is trying to put the pieces from her memory together to help make sense it of.

Kidemónas follows Sulu as the bird leads. The excitement of the situation has him as he asks. "What is it we rush for? A Great weapons against the demons?"


At this point he does not know what they are doing, this place seems trapped and each turn the bird leads them further into trouble. "Perhaps we should get out of here. This bird makes us waste a lot of time down here with no clear purpose. It treats us like pawns."


As they come to the door Kidemónas is fascinated by the structure. "Cool."
