[Caerwyn]

Samuel will write on a sign or something; - "Demons have started the fire! Get me to the king, he must be warned!". Make sure everybody sees it, too!

[Harry Baldman]

Inside a not-so-dreadful tomb of horrors...

Jordan really needs a squire! And he has the perfect individual in mind - Bernie! He goes back to the cottage!

[Bernie sleeping roll: 5]

Bernie is already up and about! Jordan approaches him!

"I say, good chap, mind helping me put on this suit of armor?"

[Bernie benevolence roll: 3-1]

"No. Piss off."

Oh well. Maybe someone else could help him?

[Bernie intelligence roll: 4+1]

"Hey, wait a minute, where did you get that?"


In a formerly burning neighborhood...

Samuel resolves to get to the king by using his third greatest talent - lying! He looks for a loose piece of something to write on!

[Search roll: 6]

He finds a giant sheet of metal and obtains some blood from a nearby burn victim! He proceeds to make a convincing sign!

[Sign-making roll: 4]

DEMONS have starrted the fire! Git me to the king, he must be warrned!

He proudly points at this latest piece of work!

[Reaction roll: 6]

"Hey, he knows something about this!"

"Inform the local security officer!"

Somebody runs off! Soon enough, an eager-looking man appears from the shadows!

"Hello there, I hear you have information!"

Samuel nods!

"Good!"

[? roll: 1]

He is about to approach Samuel, but he trips on a loose cobble! Samuel is quite alarmed at this!

[Samuel reaction roll: 5]

He steps back a bit!

[Caerwyn]

Samuel will help the man to his feet, then listen.

[Greenstarfanatic]

"Why, from that tomb over in that corner there. I managed to kill this dreadful Backgammon fanatic. What a waste of time, backgammon. I much prefer a tidy game of checkers. So, could you at least look into this set?"

Hand the armour to Bernie, hoping he can do something with it.

[Harry Baldman]

In the ruins of yet another place formerly bustling with human activity...

Samuel helps the odd fellow up to his feet! After all, can't have public officials wallowing in the gutter like that!

"Thank you. Now, where was I?"

[? roll: 1]

He is about to do something once more, but a passing street urchin whacks into him, sending him to the ground once more!

"Someone will pay for this."


Inside the cottage of Bernie...

Jordan, feeling that he really shouldn't hide anything from his master, decides to spill the beans on the newly discovered tomb!

"Why, I got it from the tomb back in that spiffy corpse repository in your backyard. I managed to kill this dreadful backgammon fanatic. What a waste of time, backgammon. I much prefer a tidy game of checkers. So, could you at least look into this set?"

Jordan quickly removes the bits of armor he's put on and hands them to Bernie! Bernie carefully looks the armor over!

"A tomb, you say? You will have to take me there. On the armor, judging by the weight, this certainly is gold or at least weighs enough to be gold."

He tries to bend one of the plates in his hands, but it doesn't budge even a little bit!

"It isn't soft, though. That's strange. I suppose it might be lightly strengthened by magic. For what purpose, though, I have no idea. Looks ceremonial. Where exactly did you get it?"

"Borrowed it from a dead chap in the tomb, milord. Didn't look like he needed it, to be honest!"

"Take me there."

[Greenstarfanatic]

Take him there.

[Harry Baldman]

Inside Bernie's cottage...

Jordan elects to take Bernie to the tomb!

[Bernie intelligence roll: ?+1]

Bernie follows Jordan! After a short walk they arrive at the new room!

"I remember there being a wall here."

"There was one, milord, but I handily dismantled the fiendish obstacle!"

They walk inside the room!

"This isn't part of the Bradford mausoleum. This is actually a completely different place entirely! Interesting find, minion! Maybe you should dismantle walls more often!"

He is about to explore a bit further, but suddenly remembers something!

"Anything the matter, milord?"

"Find me a light source. Can't very well study anything in this blackness."

[Caerwyn]

Samuel will conjure a cane, and give it to him. Try to make it a nice, but still simple one, too.

[Greenstarfanatic]

FIND THE MAN A LIGHT SOURCE!

[Harry Baldman]

In the ruins of a once-proud neighborhood...

Samuel feels pity for the poor fellow in front of him! He attempts to conjure a cane for him!

[Magic roll: 1]

He conjures a cane and gives it to the man! The man takes it!

"Ah, thank you. It's not often I get gifts from the common-"

As he taps the cane against the ground, he begins twitching awfully!

[Man endurance roll: 1]

A few moments later he drops to the ground, now smoking, crackling and probably crispy. He just couldn't catch a break today, could he? The cane fades away with a faint crackle! Yep, the man is most definitely dead.

[Reaction roll: 1]

"Look! That bloke just killed a security officer! Somebody call up more of them!"

"Yeah, this ought to get bloody!"

Another fellow runs off!


Inside the tomb...

Jordan, ever the dutiful assistant, shambles off in search of a light source!

[Search roll: 3]

He walks back to the cottage and steals a small candle from a table! Well, it provides some light!

[? roll: ?]

When he gets back, though, Bernie's gone! Hm. Wonder what could have happened.

[TopHat]

Smile sheepishly, apologise, flee.

[Greenstarfanatic]

SEARCH FOR BERNIE!

[Harry Baldman]

Inside the Magical Weaponry and Armor Department...

James attempts to make his very best sheepish smile! The mouthful of mismatched teeth make this a very difficult endeavor. In fact, the swordsman seems extremely creeped out more than anything! Maybe he should give it more context. Wouldn't want a misunderstanding!

[Apology roll: 3-2]

"Forgive me for my intrusion, I just came in to say that YOUR MOTHER IS A WHORE AND YOUR WIFE IS HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH THE DOG BWAHAHAHAH!"

[Escape roll: 5]

James runs like the devil after delivering that effective apology! After getting out of the building, he runs a good distance and looks back!

Nobody following him. Great!


Inside the tomb...

Jordan will not abandon his master! He decides to make an attempt to search for him!

[Search roll: 3]

He looks around the room for potential avenues of disappearance with the candle and finds a staircase! Marvelous.

[Intelligence roll: ?]

Who knows what horrors await an intrepid adventurer beneath!

[Greenstarfanatic]

"*ahem* LEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOY JEEEEEEEEEEENNKIIIIIIIIIINS!"

[Harry Baldman]

Inside a dark tomb of badness....

When faced with a foreboding area that's mostly shrouded in darkness and possibly infested with backgammon enthusiasts, Jordan has but one answer! The ultimate answer!

"I say, Leeroy Jenkins and all that!"

He charges down the staircase!

[Charging roll: 3]

He stumbles when he finally reaches the ground, but nothing too bad happens to him!

[Common sense roll: 6]

Perhaps this is all a trap? A trap set by the Nefarious Association of Backgammon Proliferation! Or Nabpies, as Jordan likes to call them! If this is so, he has every reason to stay cautious of the area around him!

[Encounter roll: 3]

He does feel something slither around here! The slithering is accompanied by the telltale sound of dice on a wooden board! The right-hand side of a wooden board, in fact!
