Inside the Magical Zoology Department...James, slightly delirious from all that blood loss, decides to do unto others as has been done upon him!
[Beavergoating: James vs. Beavergoat: 4+1 vs. 3+1-
1-
1]
He beavergoats the beavergoat! He beavergoats it mightily indeed! He beavergoats it for about ten minutes until the beavergoat dies from extreme pain and blood loss!
[Chimp morale roll: 2]
The chimp, unable to stand the sight of all this... this beavergoating, chooses to run away before the visage shatters whatever apes have that fills in for sanity!
[Zoologist morale roll: 3]
The zoologists merely look on in horror as James completes his dark task! Satisfied at his evil works, James proceeds outside and is accosted by no one, possibly due to fear of further beavergoating of any sort happening!
[Search roll: 6]
James, misshapen teeth bared in a smile most fearsome, finds the library with ease and heads inside!
In a village somewhere...Samuel attempts to write out what he wishes in an elaborate document mostly consisting of filthy lies and fabrications!
[Literary eloquence roll: 3]
I am a wizard. You must follow me. I am looking for an undead dragon (possibly alive). Do you know of any undead dragons in the area? Do you know of any monster-infested caves or unlooted tombs nearby? If so, point them out to me. I will carefully search them and confiscate things that are too expensive. If you follow me, it is entirely possible and perhaps even likely that you will die extremely horribly. However, you might get a coin or two out of it.[Villager reaction roll: 5-
1]
The villagers seem to love the idea of a coin or two in return for possibly dying horribly! Five somewhat able-looking ones agree to follow Samuel!
[Villager local lore roll: 4]
A wizened old man steps out from the crowd and speaks with a voice that reminds Samuel of dusty furniture!
"There be the tomb of the ancient king, whoever that bastard was. I heard there was some kinda hellmouth in there or somethin'. Nobody's bothered to check in 50-odd years, I reckon. It's to the east, see, and there be nothin' but trouble down there."In the middle of a battle...Leon, happy about halberd-dropkicking someone into submission, tries to stab the other one as well!
[Leon vs. Man 2: 2+1 vs. 2+1]
He halfheartedly kicks at the man, but nothing much comes of it as the man blocks equally halfheartedly with his axe!
[Man 2 vs. Leon: 5+1 vs. 3]
He finally manages to get a good hit in and make a pretty deep gash in Leon's torso!
"Uh, guys? Need help?"She receives no answer!
[Woman quick thinking roll: 2]
Ah, what's the worst that could happen? She fires an arrow into the melee!
[50/50 - Leon/Man 2: Man 2]
[Woman vs. Man 2: 3+1 vs. 4+1-
1-
1]
The man's forehead is grazed by the speeding arrow!
[Man will roll: 6]
He furiously charges toward Leon!
[Man 2 vs. Leon: 5+1 vs. 2]
He nearly lops off Leon's halberd-arm at the shoulder with a fierce axe chop! What's this shell made of, lead?
Inside the Library...Jordan attempts to leave the Library!
[Interruption roll: 1]
He steps out whistling when a trunkless, tuskless elephant tries to charge him in a most ungentlemanly manner!
[Jordan agility roll: 1-1]
He hardly notices as the elephant approaches!
[Elephant vs. Jordan: 2+3 vs. 4-1]
The elephant doesn't trample over him, but merely clips him with its foot! It sends Jordan flying to the side, books spilling out from every pocket!
