[2025/10/19 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: Alright. While we're waiting for Jassie to get here, let's meditate with Mao, the D&D kitteh.
[2025/10/19 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl:

Mao, the wise D&D Kitty

[2025/10/19 14:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: Such a smart kitty.
[2025/10/19 14:07] Sapphire: liiiiiiick
[2025/10/19 14:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me drums her fingers as we wait for Jassie
[2025/10/19 14:08] Andreas: mhmm
[2025/10/19 14:08] Mecha: She said one second, so should be here in a moment
[2025/10/19 14:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, so, last time... you had reality glitch on you, you were seeing villagers dancing with tentacled goblins cheering the fact that "they" are coming, there was a mob with flaming torches and pitchforks to deal with a monstrosity in a barn... and now here you are in some yellow-carpetted would of yellow walls and buzzing humming lights, with the smell of mildew and old coffee in the air.
[2025/10/19 14:12] Joe: "What hell is this?"
[2025/10/19 14:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: Your immediate environs: "Apparantly a bedroom, this chamber is a dim, eerily quiet space with flickering humming/buzzing lights casting long shadows over a battered, sagging bed draped in faded, moth-eaten blankets. The air feels thick with dust and an unsettling sense of abandonment, as if the room has been forgotten by time, yet, one feels that something is lurking in the shadows, watching silently."
[2025/10/19 14:13] Sapphire: Do we know what coffee is?
[2025/10/19 14:14] Andreas: /me =)
[2025/10/19 14:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: A strong drink of filtered ground beans, lightened with milk and with sugar to sweeten.
[2025/10/19 14:16] Sapphire: Saffire glares at the flickering mage-lights and checks the various exits visible to them at the time. "That bed looks far too befouled to consider using."
[2025/10/19 14:16] Andreas: /me is looking around for anything what looks valuable
[2025/10/19 14:17] Mecha: Beltadona: I don't know about you all but I am very lost here
[2025/10/19 14:17] Second Life: Items successfully shared.
[2025/10/19 14:18] Sapphire: "it's both of us," she assures
[2025/10/19 14:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: Any bright ideas?
[2025/10/19 14:19] Jassie: sowie
[2025/10/19 14:19] Andreas: /me "looks like the bedding been here for a while, and yes, this is strange place"
[2025/10/19 14:19] Joe: I use Detect Evil
[2025/10/19 14:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: You detect no sign of evil intent.
[2025/10/19 14:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: Oh, everyone... sanity check, roll 2d10 each :)
[2025/10/19 14:21] Sapphire: ( Any report on the search for exits? )
[2025/10/19 14:21] D10: Mecha rolls 7
[2025/10/19 14:21] D10: Mecha rolls 7
[2025/10/19 14:21] D10: Sapphire rolls 8

[2025/10/19 14:22] D10: Jassie rolls 10
[2025/10/19 14:22] D10: Jassie rolls 2
[2025/10/19 14:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, that's not good... Mecha, Sapphire, Andreas, d4 please
[2025/10/19 14:23] D4: Mecha rolls 4
[2025/10/19 14:23] Jassie: uh oh
[2025/10/19 14:23] D4: Andreas rolls 3
[2025/10/19 14:23] Mecha: Every smegging time
[2025/10/19 14:23] D4: Sapphire rolls 1
[2025/10/19 14:24] Andreas: /me sanity is overrated .... 🤪
[2025/10/19 14:24] Jassie: hahaha!!
[2025/10/19 14:25] Jassie: can always see a psychiatrist🤣
[2025/10/19 14:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: the shock of being transported here unsettled Andreas, Sapphire and Mecha, and slightly deranged their minds... the rest of you, successfully are merely slightly perturbed
[2025/10/19 14:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: It looks like you can travel in almost any direction; there's a few doors you could take
[2025/10/19 14:27] Andreas: /me "I'm definitely not opening any doors, maybe I could just chill at this bed and let you do the rest" ... grins, and checks how firm the mattrace is
[2025/10/19 14:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: someone want to pick a direction... by the way... do NOT split the party here... ;-)
[2025/10/19 14:28] Joe: Joe the Paladin suggests we open one door at a time, have a look through it, and close it again before checking the next door.
[2025/10/19 14:28] Jassie: that might not be a bad idea
[2025/10/19 14:28] Mecha: Sounds good. You first. I have had more than enough surprises and scares for the day
[2025/10/19 14:29] Jassie: does get ready to cast magic missile if something pops up to attack us
[2025/10/19 14:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: Opening doors reveals more of the same. You'll have to move some distance (together).
[2025/10/19 14:31] Sapphire: "Isn't that mattress wet?"
[2025/10/19 14:31] Jassie: well... just move forward?
[2025/10/19 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie, roll d12
[2025/10/19 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire, you get to roll d12 as well for that comment :P
[2025/10/19 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: and... Joe! D12.
[2025/10/19 14:32] Mecha: Hey I have an idea how about we get a bit of rest before exploring. get spells back heal up where we can
[2025/10/19 14:32] D12: Joe rolls 2
[2025/10/19 14:32] D12: Jassie rolls 5
[2025/10/19 14:32] Jassie: I've still got all my spells HAHA
[2025/10/19 14:33] Andreas: /me jumps into the bed "I agree, having a rest can't hurt"
[2025/10/19 14:33] Jassie: well, i'll keep watch, and you all can rest
[2025/10/19 14:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie: you'll pleased to know you make it to a slightly different area: This chamber looks like a large hall, with thick columns evenly spaced about, wide enough for someone to hide behind. Underfoot: a yellow carpet. Overhead: yellow tiles with cracked darker yellow panels that illuminate the area.
[2025/10/19 14:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire... D12
[2025/10/19 14:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: or Mecha, D12
[2025/10/19 14:34] Jassie: (lol barely any different)
[2025/10/19 14:34] D12: Mecha rolls 7
[2025/10/19 14:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's what looks like a window here.
[2025/10/19 14:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Oh... and....
[2025/10/19 14:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: A humanoid figure clad in a bright, impermeable yellow bodysuit that covers him entirely from neck to toe, made of a durable, slightly reflective material, with reinforced seams. Black boots, black gloves and a black panel where the face would be, gives an overall look that is sleek yet utilitarian, yet foreboding as well. There are obvious utility pockets, with tubing coming out the back and curving into the neck, with a dark squat cylinder where the mouth would be.
[2025/10/19 14:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: Everyone gets to roll a Sanity check again!
[2025/10/19 14:36] D12: Sapphire rolls 1
[2025/10/19 14:36] D20: Joe rolls 2
[2025/10/19 14:36] D10: Mecha rolls 6
[2025/10/19 14:36] D10: Mecha rolls 8
[2025/10/19 14:36] Sapphire: "Hey!" she yells and waves at the suited figure
[2025/10/19 14:36] D10: Sapphire rolls 5
[2025/10/19 14:36] D10: Sapphire rolls 5
[2025/10/19 14:36] D10: Andreas rolls 6
[2025/10/19 14:36] D10: Andreas rolls 5
[2025/10/19 14:37] D10: Joe rolls 2
[2025/10/19 14:37] D10: Jassie rolls 7
[2025/10/19 14:37] D10: Jassie rolls 8
[2025/10/19 14:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh my. The appearance of this alien entity is scarey to some; they lose...
[2025/10/19 14:38] D4: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 1
[2025/10/19 14:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: 1 sanity. That's Joe, Jassie, Andreas.
[2025/10/19 14:39] Jassie: thats fine, i'm a veryy sane person hehe
[2025/10/19 14:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: The figure stops still, stares at you... probably, you can't see a face, but, you hear ragged breathing
[2025/10/19 14:39] Jassie: raises staff at the figure
[2025/10/19 14:39] Sapphire: "Are you ok?"
[2025/10/19 14:40] Jassie: in prep, "yes Sapphire, just in case it makes a move."
[2025/10/19 14:40] Andreas: /me "it looks weird and scary" .... pulls out the robot hand and points it at the weird faceless figure.
[2025/10/19 14:40] Mecha: Moves away from the door, but draws Jawbreaker, just in case.
[2025/10/19 14:41] Jassie: (if u look at my hands as I hold the staff up, its shaking)
[2025/10/19 14:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: the yellow figure backs away slowly, making muffled noises that could be speech, hands lifted slightly
[2025/10/19 14:42] Joe: "Demon Witch! It's about to cast a spell on us!"
[2025/10/19 14:43] Jassie: "are you talking about me silly??"
[2025/10/19 14:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: Probably.
[2025/10/19 14:43] Joe: "no, the yellow demon" Readies my weapon
[2025/10/19 14:43] Sapphire: "He's showing empty hands to us" Sapphire says, shield still raised but sword kept low.
[2025/10/19 14:44] Jassie: I know, but just being safe.... never know with these things
[2025/10/19 14:44] Joe: "Uh. Well we can't be too careful."
[2025/10/19 14:44] Mecha: NOT EVERYTHING IS A DEMON!
[2025/10/19 14:45] Joe: points at the yello demon witch. "Well that sure ain't normal."
[2025/10/19 14:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: At that shout, the figure makes a muffled squawk, turns and flees!
[2025/10/19 14:45] Jassie: "agreed mecha, but just a safety precaution, especially since its in this forrible place"
[2025/10/19 14:45] Jassie: "well, seems its more scared of us somewhat.....though might be good to keep our voices down a little....maybe?"
[2025/10/19 14:46] Mecha: Where we are at is not normal, what we have dealt with is not normal. To them we are the not normal.
[2025/10/19 14:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me agrees, Mecha is far from normal, she's unique.
[2025/10/19 14:47] Sapphire: "Scared it off at least." She comments, watching where it went. "I don't think they knew who were are either."
[2025/10/19 14:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: so.... onwards... or does anyone want to check out the window....
[2025/10/19 14:48] Andreas: /me slowly moves towards the window and carefully peaks in
[2025/10/19 14:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: d4, Andreas
[2025/10/19 14:49] D4: Andreas rolls 1
[2025/10/19 14:49] Andreas: 0_0
[2025/10/19 14:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: You see a pane of impenetrable blackness. It's a fake window.
[2025/10/19 14:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: Moving on...?
[2025/10/19 14:51] Andreas: /me using the robot hand and touches the window carefully
[2025/10/19 14:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nothing much happens as a result.
[2025/10/19 14:52] Sapphire: Anything different from these doors we find?
[2025/10/19 14:52] Mecha: No, no more moving on until rest. I don't know about teh rest of you but I feel very close to losing my shining outlook and need a little down time, even a short rest to pray and nap.
[2025/10/19 14:53] Jassie: very well
[2025/10/19 14:53] Jassie: you all do that
[2025/10/19 14:53] Andreas: /me "black fake window .... hmmm .... I guess we may move on" ... shrugs
[2025/10/19 14:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's doors that open to similar places. It's a bit like being in a forest and asking "what's behind that tree?" the answer is, "pretty much exactly the same as where you are now." To see anything different, you need to move some distance.
[2025/10/19 14:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: This is where Mecha realizes something... you aren't tired, or hungry.... and no one is answering your prayers....
[2025/10/19 14:55] Mecha: Oh good, panic mode
[2025/10/19 14:55] Jassie: whats up mecha?
[2025/10/19 14:55] Jassie: looks at u
[2025/10/19 14:56] Mecha: I can't pray, there is no connection. .. I feel rested but It's like my prayers to Lallanis are being blocked...
[2025/10/19 14:57] Jassie: "oh... hmm..don't thinjk too much yet, i'm sure it's ok..." tries to remain optimisticx
[2025/10/19 14:57] Sapphire: "really?" She frowns.
[2025/10/19 14:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d20, Jassie
[2025/10/19 15:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me nudges Jassie... you still with us...?
[2025/10/19 15:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay... meanwhile.... suggestions for your next actions?
[2025/10/19 15:01] Sapphire: was that bed groos?
[2025/10/19 15:01] Sapphire: gross*
[2025/10/19 15:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: depends if you mean merely mildewed, or, soaked with bodily fluids.
[2025/10/19 15:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: Moving on? Or staying and doing something?
[2025/10/19 15:03] Andreas: /me shrugs .... "moving on or are we waiting for summer?"
[2025/10/19 15:03] Mecha: By the hells, we may as well go. Who is next to pick a door?
[2025/10/19 15:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: who hasn't rolled... Andreas, 3x D12
[2025/10/19 15:03] D12: Andreas rolls 5
[2025/10/19 15:03] D12: Andreas rolls 11
[2025/10/19 15:04] D12: Andreas rolls 2
[2025/10/19 15:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Where you wind up.... "This chamber looks like a large hall, with thick columns evenly spaced about, wide enough for someone to hide behind. Underfoot: a yellow carpet. Overhead: yellow tiles with cracked darker yellow panels that illuminate the area."
[2025/10/19 15:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nothing much seems to be here... as far as you can tell.
[2025/10/19 15:06] Joe: Is it possible to open any of the panels?
[2025/10/19 15:06] Andreas: /me "this place looks more eerie than the previous one ....."
[2025/10/19 15:06] Sapphire: "Columns to hide behind, soft carpet. Good enough to camp here?"
[2025/10/19 15:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: ...hide from what, coming from where....
[2025/10/19 15:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20 Sapphire
[2025/10/19 15:07] Jassie: hey solrry, needed the loo
[2025/10/19 15:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, Jassie!
[2025/10/19 15:07] D20: Jassie rolls 14
[2025/10/19 15:08] D20: Sapphire rolls 15
[2025/10/19 15:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie: you come to the slow realization that you are on another plane of existance. Well, that much is obvious... but whereever you are... you are FAR from the Prime Material Plane, if you're out of reach of the -gods-.
[2025/10/19 15:08] Jassie: "this place looks the same...."
[2025/10/19 15:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire: you realize the answer is goblins, from the east.
[2025/10/19 15:09] Jassie: "whatever the case is, we need to remain optimistic together
[2025/10/19 15:10] Jassie: or at least try to...
[2025/10/19 15:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: it's a good idea. That attitude -might- help you survive.
[2025/10/19 15:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: so, what you doing?
[2025/10/19 15:12] Jassie: (lol the might)
[2025/10/19 15:12] Joe: Using my dagger to pry open panels, without applying too much pressure and snapping the dagger
[2025/10/19 15:13] Sapphire: She checks out the eastern door to see what it would take to keep it from opening, and what's just behind it
[2025/10/19 15:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: The panels are in the ceiling, high overhead, emitting a pale yellow light
[2025/10/19 15:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire: you found something!
[2025/10/19 15:13] Jassie: does the light overhead flicker or anything?
[2025/10/19 15:14] Sapphire: what's the something?
[2025/10/19 15:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: Behind the door.... is a mirror!
[2025/10/19 15:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: the overhead lights hum and flicker ever so slightly, yes
[2025/10/19 15:15] Andreas: /me "mirror, hmmm that's a cryptonite for girls" grins
[2025/10/19 15:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: Anyone going to investigate the mirror?
[2025/10/19 15:17] Jassie: let me see
[2025/10/19 15:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: You see a blurry face looking back.
[2025/10/19 15:17] Mecha: BEltadonna sighs and gets to her feet. She may not be able to reach her goddess but that does not mean she should shirk who she is and what she represents
[2025/10/19 15:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: Oddly, this jogs something in your memory. You're not sure... but.... there may be a Way Out.
[2025/10/19 15:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha, what you doing?
[2025/10/19 15:19] Jassie: is it blurry cause of being a blurry mirror, or the figure just blurry?
[2025/10/19 15:19] Sapphire: "Oh?" Sapphire pauses to look at her self in the mirror, tilting her head and checking the admitedly simple color pattern on her shield
[2025/10/19 15:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: Good question. How will you determine the difference... do you even want to know...?
[2025/10/19 15:20] Mecha: She is approaching the group, taking measured breaths, listening to what they are saying and the mirror.
[2025/10/19 15:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire: you, too, are feeling there is a Way Out... you just aren't sure -where-...
[2025/10/19 15:20] Jassie: tries cleaning the mirror?
[2025/10/19 15:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: As you try to wipe the mirror, you see a huge paw in the mirror, swiping in your direction.
[2025/10/19 15:23] Jassie: pulls back immediately!
[2025/10/19 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: The huge paw pulls back too!
[2025/10/19 15:23] Jassie: read magic
[2025/10/19 15:23] Jassie: im guessing it detects the school?
[2025/10/19 15:23] Jassie: or is that detect magic
[2025/10/19 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: where is the magic you plan reading?
[2025/10/19 15:24] Mecha: Beltadonna is going to reach for the mirror too, curious if the same paw would appear
[2025/10/19 15:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: detect magic
[2025/10/19 15:24] Jassie: ah ok
[2025/10/19 15:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha: what you see is almost worse.
[2025/10/19 15:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's no reflection in the mirror.
[2025/10/19 15:25] Mecha: with no reflection what does Beltadonna see?
[2025/10/19 15:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: walls, Jassie, Sapphire.... just not you
[2025/10/19 15:25] Joe: "The mirror is cursed. We should smash it."
[2025/10/19 15:26] Sapphire: Sapphire pulls her glove off and reaches out to press her palm to the glass, suspecting that the Mirror World is the way out. "I think we need it. It's how we escape here."
[2025/10/19 15:26] Jassie: well we can try for sure
[2025/10/19 15:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire: For a moment, the mirror surface seems to ripple slightly
[2025/10/19 15:27] Sapphire: she presses slightly in, trying not to break the glass. "Hello? Is this a way through?"
[2025/10/19 15:27] Mecha: Sees she has no reflection and checks her teeth to make sure she doesn't suddenly have fangs or something
[2025/10/19 15:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: The mirror creaks. No one answers.
[2025/10/19 15:28] Andreas: /me walks towards the mirror and touches it with the metalic robo arm
[2025/10/19 15:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: Not as far as you can tell, Mecha
[2025/10/19 15:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas: *click*. Nothing else happens.
[2025/10/19 15:30] Joe: Can the mirror be removed ? We could take with us
[2025/10/19 15:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Do you want to try?
[2025/10/19 15:30] Joe: Yes
[2025/10/19 15:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: The mirror lifts off easily. You now own a mirror.
[2025/10/19 15:30] Joe: Woot! How big s the mirror?
[2025/10/19 15:30] Andreas: /me "and I thought I'm the thief" giggles at Snake
[2025/10/19 15:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: idk... big enough to reflect your head
[2025/10/19 15:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now what?
[2025/10/19 15:31] Sapphire: Oh, only a headsized mirror?
[2025/10/19 15:31] Joe: I explain; "I will move the mirror around the room, to reflect the room, to see what looks different"
[2025/10/19 15:31] Sapphire: not a full one?
[2025/10/19 15:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: About that sized, yes.
[2025/10/19 15:32] Jassie: thats a good idea!
[2025/10/19 15:32] Joe: "I cant look into the mirror while 'pointing' it, so you will have to do that bit"
[2025/10/19 15:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: it is a good idea... you wander about and see reflections of the room all round
[2025/10/19 15:34] Mecha: Beltadonna stops snake and lowers the mirror to mid chest on him."Now look over the top."
[2025/10/19 15:34] Joe: (peeks)
[2025/10/19 15:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: (trying to follow) you see Joe, holding a mirror before him.
[2025/10/19 15:35] Sapphire: Sapphire also helps check out the reflections against the visible room.
[2025/10/19 15:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: All you see is expected reflections.
[2025/10/19 15:36] Mecha: think we might have to open doors
[2025/10/19 15:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: who's not rolled in a while... Jassie! D20
[2025/10/19 15:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: or ... Sapphire!
[2025/10/19 15:38] D20: Jassie rolls 18
[2025/10/19 15:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie: You think you notice something.... but.... after a moment... naa.
[2025/10/19 15:39] Joe: "Does anybody want this mirror?"
[2025/10/19 15:40] Jassie: where?
[2025/10/19 15:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: you're not sure.
[2025/10/19 15:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: Giving up on that idea, Joe?
[2025/10/19 15:41] D20: Sapphire rolls 16
[2025/10/19 15:41] Mecha: I'll take it
[2025/10/19 15:41] Sapphire: so this is a big yellow entrance hall, right?
[2025/10/19 15:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire: you think... eh, no, must be mistaken. This place is wierd.
[2025/10/19 15:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: It is, as far as you can tell. But from where to what?
[2025/10/19 15:42] Sapphire: "...why do I keep forgetting things. Or... my attention is getting distracted."
[2025/10/19 15:43] Joe: (Gives the mirror to Mecha)
[2025/10/19 15:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: Who hasn't piped up... Andreas! What's your suggestion?
[2025/10/19 15:44] Andreas: /me "me, let's explore I guess? this room looks large" shrugs
[2025/10/19 15:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: Everyone else going with that idea?
[2025/10/19 15:45] Jassie: ehhhh, sure
[2025/10/19 15:45] Joe: yes
[2025/10/19 15:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, moving on.... Jassie, 3x D12
[2025/10/19 15:46] Mecha: Sure, but before that Beltadonna took the mirror from our paladin and touches it. If she isn't reflected, maybe there is a reason
[2025/10/19 15:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha: You poke the mirror, your finger is there.
[2025/10/19 15:46] Sapphire: "Why do I expect goblins from the east...."
[2025/10/19 15:47] D12: Jassie rolls 7
[2025/10/19 15:47] D12: Jassie rolls 12
[2025/10/19 15:47] D12: Jassie rolls 4
[2025/10/19 15:47] Mecha: She places the flat of her hand on it. Is she seeing the reflection of her hand being that close? Weird
[2025/10/19 15:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Jassie: This looks like a large room, with the walls and ceiling and floor composed of yellow wall-papered walls, yellow tiles and bright panels, and yellow carpet. There's a large wide staircase going up, into darkness.
[2025/10/19 15:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Also: There's a six foot tall statue, chiseled out of white marble, of a human figure.
[2025/10/19 15:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Someone roll D4
[2025/10/19 15:47] D4: Mecha rolls 2
[2025/10/19 15:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: It's a male with a beard, wearing a toga, holding a scroll
[2025/10/19 15:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: At the feet of the statue... You see an old and very stained map
[2025/10/19 15:49] Jassie: can i take a sling stone, cast light on it, and throw it into the darkness
[2025/10/19 15:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll D20, must roll over... 9
[2025/10/19 15:50] D20: Jassie rolls 1
[2025/10/19 15:50] Jassie: XD
[2025/10/19 15:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll again
[2025/10/19 15:50] D20: Jassie rolls 18
[2025/10/19 15:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: You miss by a mile. However, you don't miss Andreas.
[2025/10/19 15:51] D4: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 3
[2025/10/19 15:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: three points damage :P
[2025/10/19 15:51] Sapphire: "Oh! You ok Adnreas?"
[2025/10/19 15:51] Jassie: OMG
[2025/10/19 15:51] Sapphire: "What was that for?"
[2025/10/19 15:51] Jassie: Im so sorry!!!
[2025/10/19 15:51] Jassie: "i don't know... I was aiming at the dark stairs"
[2025/10/19 15:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me nearly laughs herself sick
[2025/10/19 15:52] Jassie: picks up the lit up stone... tries to jsut toss it up in the air and catch it
[2025/10/19 15:52] Andreas: /me "thanks .... it hurts ... "
[2025/10/19 15:52] Jassie: "im really sorry..."
[2025/10/19 15:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: Any other... bright.... ideas?
[2025/10/19 15:53] Jassie: do i toss the stone up normally and catch it?
[2025/10/19 15:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d20
[2025/10/19 15:53] D20: Jassie rolls 4
[2025/10/19 15:53] Sapphire: Sapphire moves to look at the map
[2025/10/19 15:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: Yes.
[2025/10/19 15:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: Taking the map, Sapphire?
[2025/10/19 15:53] Jassie: ok someone else wanna throw it at the dark stairs?
[2025/10/19 15:55] Sapphire: yes, and reading it. "Hand over that light stone."
[2025/10/19 15:55] Jassie: passes it over to Sapph
[2025/10/19 15:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire: The map shows the stairs are the Way Out.
[2025/10/19 15:56] Joe: Does the map show anything else ?
[2025/10/19 15:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a smiley face, what looks like a mathematical calculation, and a doodle of some stick figure in a broad-rimmed hat
[2025/10/19 15:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now what?
[2025/10/19 15:58] Mecha: So what did you find?
[2025/10/19 15:58] Mecha: Beltadonna sets the mirror down facing the ground
[2025/10/19 15:58] Jassie: that map makes no sense
[2025/10/19 15:58] Sapphire: "Amazing. This hardly looks like a map at all."
[2025/10/19 15:59] Sapphire: "Mage, do these figures mean anything to you?"
[2025/10/19 15:59] Jassie: can I have a look then?
[2025/10/19 16:00] Jassie: and cast read magic, if theres any magiclal speech etc on the map
[2025/10/19 16:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: You haven't memorized read magic.
[2025/10/19 16:00] Jassie: oh its in my spellbook right
[2025/10/19 16:01] Sapphire: She holds it up in a place Jassie can read it
[2025/10/19 16:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: You do, however, read a comment about something you did ten years ago, when you broke something in your mentors' house, but which you blamed on their familiar.
[2025/10/19 16:01] Jassie: what.....
[2025/10/19 16:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: sanity check! Jassie, 2D10
[2025/10/19 16:01] D10: Jassie rolls 2
[2025/10/19 16:01] D10: Jassie rolls 2
[2025/10/19 16:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: You take a deep breath and tell yourself... there's no way that means -you-... no one saw...
[2025/10/19 16:03] Jassie: oh goodness...
[2025/10/19 16:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: so.... you planning on trying the stairs?
[2025/10/19 16:03] Mecha: Yes please
[2025/10/19 16:03] Joe: yes
[2025/10/19 16:03] Jassie: follows along mumbling to herself, "noone saw it,no one really knows."
[2025/10/19 16:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: You go up the steps, and are swallowed by darkness.
[2025/10/19 16:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a wooden door in front of you.
[2025/10/19 16:04] Jassie: even the light stone?
[2025/10/19 16:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Pushing it open, you see a large barn, a whole bunch of people holding torches and pitchforks.
[2025/10/19 16:04] Jassie: it doesnt glow?
[2025/10/19 16:05] Sapphire: sapphire makes sure the mirror is recovered before they go up.
[2025/10/19 16:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: There's a bunch of villages dancing with laughing, tentacled goblins. "They are coming! They coming down!"
[2025/10/19 16:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: Cleric Hoffman: "They are demons! BURN THEM!"
[2025/10/19 16:05] Sapphire: "Um, hello?" She looks over the tentacled goblins. "Think they have an inn here?"
[2025/10/19 16:05] Joe: "The barn" simple words referring to the last time we saw the mob with pitchforks wanting to set fire to it because there was something inside
[2025/10/19 16:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: indeed.... but you're outside
[2025/10/19 16:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: however...
[2025/10/19 16:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: the barn doors suddenly burst open. You can see four of those creatures from the blacksmith. "EE EEEE EEEE!" they growl. And, behind them....
[2025/10/19 16:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: two serpentine horrors with what look like bows for arms and great grinning skulls lurching out behind the smaller creatures, with an expression of what seems to be sadistic ferocity, growling loudly as they come, hissing: "DIE!"
[2025/10/19 16:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: What a cliffhanger :O
[2025/10/19 16:07] Joe: "eep"
[2025/10/19 16:07] Jassie: ooo boy
[2025/10/19 16:08] Sapphire: "An enemy!"
[2025/10/19 16:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, the *good* news, is, you survived the Backrooms.
[2025/10/19 16:08] Jassie: this is easy!
[2025/10/19 16:09] Jassie: im sure we're all gonna be fine XD
[2025/10/19 16:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me smirks the smirk of one who knows what she left for next week
[2025/10/19 16:09] Andreas: /me "heh, fine ... we'll see ... with this DM you never know" grins
[2025/10/19 16:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: How's the horrification proceeding? :)
[2025/10/19 16:10] Jassie: meh u all worry too much
[2025/10/19 16:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, we'll see what you got to worry about next week ;)
[2025/10/19 16:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: Thanks for coming.... don't go insane before next week!
[2025/10/19 16:11] Mecha: Looking forward to it :)
[2025/10/19 16:11] Joe: thanks so much for testing our sanity
