Make an excuse (I think I forgot to put the cat out!) and get back to the opening tunnel that I came from.
Cast speed climbing and get back to the real surface.

Inside the mind of a real woman...

Mike tries to look at the world through the eyes of a woman!

[Mike will roll: 6+2]

He manages to take complete control of the woman's mental and physical faculties! For all intents and purposes, Mike has become the woman now! He is in control!

Well, he is still in the room. The Master is sitting on the ruined throne and moping about his dismal fate, it seems! The door's still there as well. One more unopened crate lies on the ground.


In a pink building with pink people, like, everywhere...

Maps tries to roll out of the lair of the pink office drones by making the clever excuse that his cat sounds like it's boiling, so it should really be taken to a doctor!

[? roll: ?]

The pink people look strange now. Something in their eyes. The pink light that's been enveloping the area slowly becomes more intense, drowning everything in pink!

[Escape roll: 6]

Well, Maps is not about to stick around and find out what's happening! Time to make himself scarce! He gets into a high-speed roll and tries to get out of the building in the shortest and most efficient way - through several walls!

[Maps' wallbreaking roll: 5]

He effortlessly smashes through the pink cloud-fluff that seems to make up the walls and gets outside!

[? roll: ?]

So far, so good! Maps rolls rapidly over the fields, squishing lots of vegetation as he passes!

[Perception roll: ?]

He looks around and, upon noticing that nothing's following him, slows down a bit. It takes him a short while to reach the tunnel!

[? roll: ?]

[Perception roll: ?]

He senses something near him. Something bad. He looks around and sees a pink shadow dart between two pink trees! Uh oh.

Mike will search the lair for a piece of lead glass and other things he needs to prepare a door.
((I needed that, right?))

Inside the lair of a presumably intelligent dog...

Mike looks around the lair for a piece of lead glass!

[Search roll: 2]

After searching around the lair for an hour, she finds nothing of the sort!

[Intelligence roll: ?]

Hm, wonder why it's not here? Pretty strange, all in all. Well, maybe there's some door-preparation stuff around here!

[Search roll: 5]

Why, yes! Yes, there is! She picks up some chalk, several candles, a tinderbox and a vial of virgin's blood, all of them handy things for a demon summoner to have! If only lead glass wasn't so gosh dang rare!

Mike will try to remember how to make lead glass and find the supplies required to do so.

Cast suffocation on the shadow.
If uncussesful, open fire on it with the crossbows I somehow have.

In the lair of the dog-overlord...

Mike tries to remember something she's never known!

[Intelligence roll: ?-2]

Well, presumably lead is involved somehow. And glass, too. Wait, she's got it!

[Search roll: 5]

She finds a lead plate and a glass bottle, then smashes one against the other with incredible force! The glass breaks!

[Glass shrapnel roll: 1]

Lots of shrapnel hits her face, and a solitary piece of glass catches her in the eye! Wow, that is so awful there's hardly any need to describe it!

[Endurance roll: 5]

She remains perfectly conscious, if half-blind! She successfully resists the urge to rub the eye!


Near the border of Pinkland...

Maps tries to magically suffocate whatever is running around back there!

[Magic roll: 4-1]

He hears a bit of coughing and sees a tiny bit of pink dust come from somewhere! Well, that's all he needed!

[Maps vs. Shadow: 4+4-2+1 vs. 5+1-1]

He manages to hit the tree the shadow is hiding behind, setting it on pink fire, then shattering the trunk with a force-bolt! Behind the tree is a coughing pink man in pink robes!

[Pink man endurance roll: 1]

He drops to his knees and begins to hyperventilate! Oh my, somebody should offer him some help!

In the realm of pink pinkness...

Maps decides to offer help to the poor pink person in the only way he knows how - murder, and lots of it! He rolls up to the man and stomps on his face!

[Stomping roll: 6]

After a short while, he has turned the man's head into a smear on the ground! He stomps for some ten more minutes after this point, making sure the smear is spread as thinly as it possibly can be! After all, you can't murder someone sloppily. That would be dishonest, dishonorable and just plain rude!

After doing that, he searches the man's pockets for something good!

[Loot roll: 4]

He finds 20 pink coins, a pink gemstone, pink lint and a pink book! He takes all of them! Now to get out of here!

[? roll: ?]

[Perception roll: ?]

As Maps gets back to the hole he got out of, he becomes suddenly aware that something is not quite right! Better get out of here right quick!

[Magic roll: 4-1]

He magically improves his climbing speed somewhat and tries to ascend the cliff wall!

[Climbing roll: 2+1]

He manages to climb upwards a bit, but doesn't get very far, unfortunately, before needing to rest a bit! Phew, this is hard work!


Outside a cave...

Vincent examines the beast's armored plating!

[Examination roll: 1]

He takes off several of the larger plates and, upon ascertaining that they are indeed made of bubblegum, tosses them into the dark forest!

[Imagination roll: ?]

He could sell all these plates to people who collect such things and make somewhat less than a single day's worth of lunch money! Yeah!

Mike will remember that the lead and glass need to be molten.

In a glass-pierced female body...

Mike, choosing to ignore the piece of glass in her eye, chooses to keep thinking on how to do something she doesn't know how to do!

[Glassmaking knowledge roll: 4-2]

She thinks hard about it, but realizes that she really doesn't know the first thing about glassmaking! Oh, woe is her! If only she hadn't chosen the trade of potion-selling in life!

Mike will find an eyepatch, put it on, then sneak out and try to remember where the nearest town is, then try to find a piece of lead glass there!
