Sam's going to implode innocent little animals until he either runs out of magical energy, or collapses the space-time continuum.

In the city of... um... ah...

Samuel decides to test his undoubtedly amazing magical powers on some wildlife! Specifically, the awesome power of imploding innocent, cute little animals!

[Search roll: 3]

He finds a rabbit! It runs away! Aw, shucks. Well, trees are technically wildlife, right? Samuel decides to see if they really do scream when imploded!

[Magic roll: 1-2]

He turns a good portion of the entire forest's trees into giant canes that are somehow stuck in the ground! Samuel waits for them to do anything! They don't.

Well, that just won't do! More magic!

[Magic roll: 1-2]

He waves at the forest, willing it to implode upon itself! It doesn't. What does implode, however, is space itself. A magical space anomaly appears!

[Samuel escape roll: 2]

Samuel slowly gets pulled into it, being the originator of the warp! Magic hates an originator, you know.

[Samuel escape roll: 4-1]

He holds on to a rock! Well, isn't that just a lucky coincidence.

[Samuel grip roll: 1]

That is, it would be a lucky coincidence if the rock wasn't just a wandering toad. It slips out of Samuel's fingers, sending him tumbling into the anomaly!

[Let's do the space warp: ?]

It takes only an instant for him to pass through the warp! The entire journey is quite indescribable, but the end result is that Samuel seems to have landed on the floor somewhere! A wooden floor.

He gets up and takes a look around. Looks like a tavern. There's people getting drunk, people fighting and people singing terribly. Yep, definitely a tavern.


Inside the quarters of an artifact researcher...

Vincent puts his halberds to work in opening the chest!

[Strength roll: 4+1]

He breaks it open like a charm! Life is so much easier when you have tools made of steel!

[Loot roll: 2]

There appears to be more smut inside. This, however, is far more incriminating than the smut in the bookshelf!

Get out of there. And remove the smut from my backpack.

Inside the quarters of some smut-obsessed researcher...

Vincent opts to leave the smut be, unsure of where it's been! He puts everything he stole back into the bookcase in a neat alphabetical order! That done, he leaves the room, unwilling to sully himself any further!

[Encounter roll: 2]

A lady in white robes walks down the hallway and walks up to the missing door of the room Vincent just attempted to burglarize! She looks inside!

"My smut! It's been organized in an alphabetical order! I don't remember doing that!"

[Smut Woman intelligence roll: 5]

"Something evil is afoot! I must find the perpetrator of this heinous crime!"

[Perception roll: 1]

"Aha! I see the foolish peasant who did this! You will pay, you hear me!"

She dives through a window, landing on the cobbled ground outside!

[Fall damage roll: 1]

She stays there. Well, maybe she'll look before she leaps next time. That is, if she isn't dead.

[Smut Woman endurance roll: 6]

Vincent's suspicions are immediately cleared when the lady gets up and limps off into the distance!

Well. That was strange.

Samuel's going to buy a pint, and drink himself to un-death-death!

Inside a... tavern?

Samuel attempts to buy a pint! He realizes he doesn't have any money!

[Common sense roll: 2]

Ah, he'll just steal a pint instead. What's the worst that could happen?

[Stealing roll: 3]

While one fellow is looking away for a second, Samuel nabs his pint of some unidentifiable liquid! He takes a sip!

Oh, dammit, now his robes are wet. They also smell like beer, not that Samuel would know that. Of all the rotten luck...

He puts the pint back before the fellow notices!

Samuel doesn't care. He's going to try and cast a spell to magically inebriate himself into a drunken stupor.

Inside a new tavern...

Samuel attempts to make himself magically drunk! He begins waving his cane around!

[Magic roll: ?-2]

He does succeed in making himself nearly black-out drunk! Whew. Didn't think that would work. He stumbles a bit to test his drunkenness! Yep. Totally inebriated. If he could pass out from intoxication right now, he would.

Inside a tavern of adventure...

Samuel initiates party mode, being drunk as hell at the moment!

[Partying roll: 4-1]

He dances awkwardly! Several heads turn to him, but they quickly get back to drinking, obviously used to such shenanigans! Samuel is disappointed at the lackluster reception!

[Partying roll: 3-1]

He tries to get some people to dance awkwardly with him, but just ends up falling down! He attempts to get up!

[Agility roll: 2+1-1]

He gets to his feet, stands for a moment, but immediately falls face-forward on the ground!

[Tavern reaction roll: 5]

The people in the tavern begin to look at him! They cheer at his antics!

Samuel will continue to please! Ha! Glorious! Maybe summon a few dancing canes for giggles.

In the middle of a crowded tavern...

Samuel likes the attention! It makes him feel fulfilled! Better keep on partying!

[Partying roll: 5-1]

He does a drunken dance rather nicely, using the rattling of his bones to create an impromptu beat! People seem to like it just fine!

They don't like it enough, though! Time to bring out the big guns!

[Magic roll: 4-1]

He summons a single floating cane and proceeds to close-dance with it!

[Crowd reaction roll: 5]

The crowd cheers, quite happy about the display of magic they just witnessed! Samuel feels great, if nauseous!

Sam will now stagger out, and try to pray for divine guidance, to give him a path to walk, one that will let him restore Jordan back to...Some form of life.
