((Happy birthday Sky, and I think the game's fine. Do miss the rapid updates, but don't we all. :3))


Arianna kept her eyes narrowed on Shadow a moment longer before turning to Ire.

"If you mean did I uncover anything useful, then no. The rabbit simply said not to 'mess with the light,' which may have meant the light giants were particularly unsavory."

Loot mirror shards. If no mirror shards left, butcher a rabbit other than the one Shadow killed.

"Oi! What do you think you're doing, Khan?"

Steal my marble back.

((Again, happy birthday, Sky! On an unrelated note, I've said this before to other GMs: Don't worry about updating rapidly. If it stops being fun for you, that will kill it far more effectively than less frequent updates. :)) ))

Azastre sighs in relief poking at his chainshirt a bit due to his lack of familiarity with the armor during combat before searching for the robot to climb atop it.

Azastre rests a bit atop the robot. He's tired.

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.
>Yes?
"Could you guys also make a hamburger out of this arm when they cut it off? I wanted to eat it just for the sake of tasting it."
>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

Kahn ... Marble? 5 He looks undecided, then plucks marble out of nowhere. Two Marble Slabs obtained. 2 The stairs stand proud and tall to the next floor. The glass steps wind around the center column towards the endless dark above.

2 A cold breeze wafts from who knows where, chilling his sweaty body.

Ire 3 watches the giant lizard cuddle against Rod, poking him with its very large spikes and dealing 0 damage to him.

4,6->2,6->2,5,5 Burning brighter like a candle that is about to go out, her pair of inspirations flare up and empower her magic. Like a spreading wave of benevolence, a warm feeling circles everyone on the floor, healing them of 20 HP each.


Shadow 4 strongly asserts his feeling of danger and unease in a neon yellow font, and rampages up the stairs, seeing nothing blocking his way.

Next floor ->?


Ace 1 commences looting the floor. He picks up a pair of Large Crystal Tiles when the room sways uneasily. It must have been the fact that he pried one of the Large Crystal Tiles from a pillar.


Arianna4 takes seven mirror shards. She also 5 skins and cleans a rabbit that is lying with its head missing, getting a White Rabbit Pelt and a lot of meat chunks.


Rod 2 doesn't even know what marble Kahn's talking about. o_O 6->1 Rod tries to do the same thing Kahn did, but as he fumbles around in the forth dimension he feels something clamp onto his hands. Uhoh.


Azastre 6->2 tries to rest on his robot, but Juha comes up and breaks his relaxation. "Erm, so, we're ... still alive, right? Are you okay?"

A tiny round marble clatters to the ground, rolling away slowly.

(This is the marble we were both talking about. :P But since Rod protested and, well, I got something else out of it anyway, I won't contest him for it.)

Kahn quickly runs upstairs once the room starts swaying.

"Wha-Again? You want to, y'know, run away, guys?"
Try and pull Rod out, then run away, hoping for that whole life thing.

((Soooo... is there going to be a clarifying edit because we were actually both going for the little marble rolling around on the floor rather than trying to cross into the Eighth Dimension like Buckaroo Banzai in search of building materials, or are we just going to roll with it? That aside, you're welcome to it, Serious, but it was potentially shiny.  :P))

If the latter: Rod swings the claymore well away from his body in an attempt to hurt whatever thing it is that grabbed his hand, then uses the teleportation ability to 'port over to the stairs.

((Wait, it was shiny? MIIIIINE!))


If none of its rightful or prior illegitimate owners go for it, snatch that marble-thing that the giant hand dropped when slain.

Then attempt to butcher another rabbit, though again not the one Shadow killed. Train Butchering and receive butchering exp from last turn? :3

((Oh come on the worst thing that could've happened to the rabbits I killed is they somehow got cursed :3))

Make my way up the stairs and check the bracelet once more, it has to do something.

Azastre nods an affirmative to Juha but points upstairs and gestures for her to get to safety with the robot.

Azastre tries to help/save Arianna if she somehow fails. Otherwise, up the stairs.

((FD, adwarf, you're both fully healed :/))

Fade into stealth after ordering the lizard up the stairs, following the little boy named Azastre.

Also, scavenge something important in the vicinity and get up the stairs.

Examine the mirror.

Re: Ascend Sky Tower :: Floor 18 — Empty Nest Syndrome
« Reply #2129 on: March 01, 2013, 09:05:37 am »

Kahn 6->1 runs upstairs, but he slips and rolls back down the stairs. He ends up about a foot away from the edge of the room.

Ace 4 tugs hard and successfully extricates Rod from the hole. He runs hard, 6->5 and gets up the spiral stairs in no time at all. The steps slowly transform from a transparent glass and crystal affair back to the normal rock and tiles. The rails appear again, all wrought and decorated. They seem to be made of a different metal from before. It isn't stainless steel, gold, or even silver. It could be platinum, except it has more of a blue sheen.

He steps onto floor 18. It seems to be a standard room, except that it is completely covered in straw and branches. The huge arch windows encircling the floor show black night outside. Has it already been a day? How long passed since they first stepped on the first floor's buttons, not knowing each other at all?
The room is dim. The only light comes from boxed lanterns made of stained glass set in thin metal frames, hung on each arch. There seems to be a few black lumps in the middle of the room. A low whistling sound periodically issues from them. One of the lumps stir, and the chinking of metal against more metal is heard. Torchlight reflects off whatever was disturbed, and Ace sees the shadows of coins.


Rod 4 is helped by Ace, and gets out of the hole. He even swings his claymore in the opposite direction from Ace and doesn't behead him. The tip of the sword bumps the ground, and he abuses the definition of its ability to teleport to the middle of the stairs. He takes 2 dmg, 1 from the teleporting and the other from hitting his head on the lintel. He heads towards floor 18.


Arianna takes advantage of the transdimensional mixup and picks up the shiny shiny sparkly pretty marble.

1 Failing her common sense roll, she butches one more rabbit 2 turning it into a posthumous victim of a serial killer with a fetish for exploding guts, then 2 loses her balance, sliding on the slick blood sideways as the whole room lurches and tilts. She is sliding towards the closest edge. Only a meter left.

The incline of the floor is around thirty degrees.

In the midst of that, she manages to redeem 42 xp for Butcher.

Shadow 3 heads up the stairs. While going up, he goes over the bracelet. It doesn't do anything that he can perceive. The bare eye isn't the best of appraising tools, anyways.


Gretel 1 tries to go towards the steps, but slips on a fat chunk lying around and skids. To add injury to insult, the room tilts and she goes sliding towards the dark abyss below. She is near Arianna.

Popo kicks off and heads towards the stairs, knowing not what is befalling her sister.


Azastre 5 grabs Arianna's hand as she slides and anchors her temporarily. If the room tilts more, it's highly probable that he'll go sliding too. The robot is already on the steps, which are strangely stable.


Ire orders the lizard to follow Azastre. 1 Azastre goes help Arianna, and the lizard follows him. Unfortunately, the lizard does not have pads on its feet, and it skids easily across the inclined plane, unable to gain traction even with six legs. Its claws make scritching noises as it tries hard to stop and fails.

4 She observes the mirror shard. It doesn't look special except for the backing material, which is a pale blue, light metal.

1 Ire sees nothing to scavenge and heads up the stairs, but turns to see around four of her party members sliding and slipping. Gretel, Lizard, Arianna, and Azastre.
