Outside the barricaded Magical Weaponry and Armor Department...
James attempts to find some easily exploitable mistake in the whole "barricade it up to heaven" setup!
[Intelligence roll: ?+1]
He is pretty sure there isn't one! Well, except for the fact that they aren't made of metal! A-ha! Exploitable weakness, here comes James!
[Homewrecking roll: 4]
After spending about thirty minutes on what is essentially chopping lumber, James gets inside the department!
[Commotion roll: 2]
Oh dear. There appears to be a gentleman with a glowing sword waiting for him inside!
[Reaction roll: 4-2]
"Good gods, man, what happened to your face?"
[Social interaction roll: 1-2]
"Hssst!"
James attempts to decapitate his adversary!
[James vs. Swordsman: 5+1 vs. 6+1]
James slashes, but the swordsman ducks expertly and strikes back!
[Swordsman vs. James: 6+2 vs. 2+2]
James is stabbed through the shoulder in an extremely nasty way!
[Will roll: 3+1]
He manages to hold on to his weapon, though!
Inside a freshly exorcised ancient tomb...
As the marvelous slayer of the most unholy backgammon enthusiast, Jordan feels entitled to first crack at the loot!
[Looting roll: 4]
He walks up to an important looking sarcophagus and takes the lid off! Inside is some shiny ancient golden full plate armor! Suspiciously shiny, actually! Jordan tries to take it off!
[Armor use roll: 5]
Through good old gentlemanly ingenuity, he manages to get the whole set off in less than five minutes! Not bad! Not bad at all!
Outside a magic store...
Samuel rightly believes himself to be somewhat out of his depth with all this pen magic! Time to convert it into something familiar!
[Magic roll: 1]
The pen he paid all of his money for explodes into a shower of canes made of fire and lightning!
[Collateral damage roll: 5]
Fortunately, not a whole lot of the surrounding street is harmed by the storm of exploding magical canes, possibly by virtue of nobody else being around! Only telltale blackened patches on the walls around here give off any clue that anything particularly suspicious could have happened! Samuel is now penless, penniless and doesn't even have any canes to show for it! Oh, woe!
