In a party that's dragged on for far too long...Samuel, quite bored right now, decides to attempt to find some quality entertainment! He takes out the scrying amulet and attempts to find Bernie!
[Scrying roll: 6-1]
Drunk as he is, Samuel manages to find Bernie! He appears to be almost exactly where he left him! Great!
Samuel also feels a stirring on his magic map! It's plotted a course through what appears to be somewhat treacherous wilderness right back to Bernie's house! That's sort of cool. It'll take him about three days max to get there!
Next, Samuel attempts to locate Jordan!
[Scrying roll: 6-1]
He sees his head on the ground in a dark tomb! Looks pretty dead.
[Composure roll: 2-1]
He drops to his knees and attempts to scream in anguish! Failing that, he silently curses his lack of vocal chords!
Oh well. Next fellow.
[Scrying roll: 2-1]
The amulet finds a random vampire somewhere else! He appears to currently be receiving a horrible amount of punishment from a fellow with a sword-whip. There's a pentacle sticking out of his forehead. Hm. Next guy!
[Scrying roll: 5-1]
He sees a metal body lying motionless in the woods! Wonder who that is? Hm, let's see, who's left?
[Scrying roll: 5-1]
He spies a spectral fellow escorting an absolutely enchanting man through the woods. There is murder in his eyes! Well.
[Scrying roll: 6-1]
He locates a skeleton with a tail-arm currently looking triumphant at having opened a door through skill and finesse rather than brutal violence! Samuel can't help but feel for the guy.
Well, that takes care of those five guys.
In the quarters of some other researcher schlub...Vincent immediately goes for the chest!
[Security measures roll: 6]
It's open!
[Loot roll: 1]
Probably because it isn't actually a chest! It's some kind of dirty illusionist trick! It shoots massive amounts of colorful illusionist lights at Vincent exactly like most dirty illusionist tricks do!
[Will roll: 2]
Ooh. Pretty lights. What's that? The lights want Vincent to jump out of a window? Sure!
[Window choice roll: 1]
It seems pretty urgent, so Vincent doesn't wait for an opportune window to show up! He goes through the wall instead!
[Building structural integrity roll: 6]
The wall suddenly gets all magical and stuff and bounces Vincent away!
[Vincent agility roll: 4+1]
He lands quite nicely, managing to stay completely unhurt! What luck!
((What about your cane focus?))
((He doesn't have it with him. Left it in the cave. Grabbed a bear instead.
