At the edge of everything...
Samskull tries to save his golem from the horrible pull of creation!
[Intelligence roll: ?]
He tries to summon an anchor for the golem!
[Magic roll: 2+1]
He summons a large skull for the golem to hold on to! The golem grabs it!
Now the golem is slowly moving toward a molten lead-silver asteroid while hugging a large skull. Wonderful.
In the Lair of the Scarecrows...
Timothy approaches the magical scary-crows and says a warm hello!
"Hello! Youse is da scary-crows, right?"
[Scary-crow reaction roll: 3]
One of the scary-crows turns around and begins to yell at Timothy!
"WE ARE THE MAGNIFICENT STATE OF THE STRAW PEOPLE, NOT SCARY-CROWS! YOU WILL ADDRESS ME AS CITIZEN LOUIS!"
Timothy doesn't pay attention to this, trying to smile disarmingly!
[Smiling roll: 6]
He smiles very disarmingly indeed! His grin is as wide as a canyon, his teeth resembling enlarged kernels of corn in both shape and color! Citizen Lou takes a step back, looking rather disarmed.
"Maybe you is wants a real fun job, one of you? Real excitin', not boring like sits aroun' here all day. Does them nasty peoples in da town make you stays in here? That not sound real fun to me."
[Scary-crow reaction roll: 3]
"NON-CITIZEN! MAKE YOURSELF KNOWN BEFORE I ANSWER YOU! THE MAGNIFICENT STATE OF THE STRAW PEOPLE WOULD ALSO APPRECIATE IT IF YOU STOPPED SCARING THE NEWLY-BUILT!"
Same town, different time...
Mike waits for someone to pick up the jug!
[Bat greed roll: 5]
Somebody does! The bat! It picks up the jug and carries it away, perhaps sensing its power!
[Bat lair roll: 4]
After a few hours of flying, the bat lands somewhere! It's warm and nice here, it seems. Mike hears a voice! A female voice with a certain softness to it!
"Ah! Batty! What have you brought for me today? Oh my, a jug!"
[Woman identification roll: 4]
She picks it up and shakes it a bit!
"Well! Sounds like souls in there, all right. You've done well, Batty! I'll make sure that the master gives you a double portion of happy-happy today!"
She grabs the jug and begins carrying it off somewhere at a great speed!
In a forest that seems normal enough...
Vincent begins to explore the forest!
[Exploration roll: 2]
There is literally nothing interesting here for many miles around! Well, crap. What's a stranded skeleton to do?
