"huh? Oh, I'm Ahrian. Why're you wearing a suit? I dont think there's going to be much occasion for it on top of a mountain."

"Fair question. Hm... I suppose I just like to make a good first impression and  in my experience, the suit has helped.
In all honesty, anything that would be useful here, I doubt I'd have much access to. Well, beyond these, I suppose.

Ed gestures down at his greaves.

"Still not entirely sure where they came from. But it seems that sort of situation's not very uncommon here."

He gives Faye's spearplate a passing glance as he says this.

"Yeah, I got something weird too.
Ahrian removes her socks from her pocket and shows them to the other two
"Somehow I ended up with these things. They hurt while I wear them, so I've been keeping them in my pocket. Do either of you have any idea what they're supposed to do?"

Ed looks at the socks with an unsure expression.
"Hrm. Are those made of leather? That'd explain why they're unpleasant to wear, at any rate."

He shrugs.
"I guess I'll take a look at them and see if they're weird in ways other than that."

Inspect Ahrian's socks for magicky oddness, I guess?

Also, examine socks as I think I have a high stat for that.

Huh... Strange. Maybe they're like... karmic battery socks?

Pick up all the loot I've just examined as well.

Quote from: Tsuchi, Leng, Some
Chat, play around, chat some more, look at the weird leather socks
Go hit on the ladies. Take away one of my highest points.
Edmund wanders over to the two girls and joins their conversation. He examines the large, weirdly-colored leather socks, dodging a rock which flies dangerously close to his head and muttering to reply to the inevitable apology. [5] They seem to have some kind of activated power, which unfortunately requires you to be wearing them. After informing the girls of this fact, Edmund stands a bit uncomfortably off to one side. They're about as normal as you could expect here, but that's not really reassuring...Faye looks over the socks with this hint in mind. [4+2+1] It's clearly an activated healing ability.
The rapper comes over. [1-2] "Hey, girls, do you wanna sleep with me? Because I'm sleeping with you, no matter what! ...Wait..." He doesn't get the wait.
[9V5-1-1&4V8-1][5-3v4-1]
[8v5-1][6-1v5-1-1]
Both girls swing at Snow, Ahrian rather more successfully. Her punch doesn't really hurt at all, though. Then Edmund does the same, with Snow getting a highly probable black eye.

[9-1] You cause the area to begin glowing, then fall further and leave the glow behind. [MPR:4] You're more than two-thirds down, [3-2-1] but dead.

Head back into the building and grab and put on the chain shirt.
Pick up all the loot I've just examined as well.
Try to fire a glass projectile thing in a direction with nobody in the way.

Check, that would be the loot under you correct?, and [9+2-1] smashing!
The big scary guy's swim trunks fall down; you laugh. His trunks turn into a fishy lady (literally), who wanders over to you and taps your shoulder. [2-1] Your leg withers! You fall over, feeling generally crappy.

"Ugh.... where the hell am I?" Is what Unlucky says as he wakes up his... however long his sleep was. Then he notices he has some weird stuff he doesn't recognize. And they seem to do something....
Test out what my stuff can do. Test on nearest weak looking person in my stuff doesn't do stuff on there own.... some much stuff....
(You also have two Attribute Points to spend.)
Evil Unlucky awakes from a mental stupor, trying to remember. That coif he has turned his skin leathery, that was easy to find out. However, that still leaves this weird rocky thing and, of course, the swimsuit. [2-4,10-4] The former presumably has some kind of godifying enchantment, while the latter seems to be able to summon some kind of ally. When your only combat thingies are a stone cloak and some leathery skin, allies are good, right? Let's see if you can figure out how to get the ally...[6+1-1+1] You figure out how and invoke the enchantment! First thing, your shorts fall down; there's someone laughing at you. Secondly, they sorta expand and thicken, beginning to emit smoke. It seems like they're trying to crawl away, and get a lot bigger. When the smoke clears, it's...some kind of woman. She's wearing a bikini and looks to be in her early 20's. On the other hand, she also has a round and sideways-flattened head (you'd say laterally compressed, but you don't know what that means) which looks like some sort of fish, scaley skin, and fins for hands.
"Um...hi?"
"Hi! I'm Mylio. What's your name?"
"Never mind that right now. Is there anything you can...do?"

"Oh, sure! Watch this:"
Mylio goes over to the guy who laughed at your wardrobe malfunction and tapped him on the shoulder. One of his legs withers; he falls over. "Nice."
"Thanks. It doesn't always do that. Or maybe it does. I haven't tried much. It was a great party trick, until I turned one guy into goop."

Fezzy Spawns!
The spirit of Dakota Jones's fez coalesces in the building. She notes a small club in her hand, with a little green ring around the handle. [9-1] She notices a small button in the ring.

"What a jerk. wait... this could be useful. Hey, um... you never did tell me your name did you. Whatever, anyway, so these socks have some kind of healing ability? Well, we have someone here I could try it out on and figure out how it works. Lets see here..."

Put the leather socks on, and try to heal the random guy's eye. listen to any advice given by the others on how to activate the ability.

"Sweet.... do it some more to the guy.... actually... I bet it'll work better if you hug him... well you you don't mind hugging a guy with a withered leg."

Have Mylio hug the guy she touched. Unless someone else tries hurting me or her, then hug them instead. Do stuff to figure out this godifying enchanment while she's doing her thing.

Wave to the nice people, then edge out of the door and press the button. if anyone comes towards me, aim at them before pressing the button.
