Counter disbelief with logic!

In the deepest, darkest recesses of possibly false memory...

Maps tries to logically evaluate the veracity of the information present in the memory files!

[Logic roll: 1]

You know, on second thought, it all seems totally believable and plausible to him! Guess he really is James Lanthorn after all! It says so right on the paper, doesn't it?

Through a complete failure in conventional logic of any kind, John "Maps" Johnson has realized that he is in fact James Lanthorn, no matter how painful and humiliating this realization may be!


On a seemingly endless ceramic surface...

Mike tries to telekinetically levitate toward the canyon!

[Telekinesis roll: 4]

After floating for an interminable period of time, she manages to reach the canyon! It's somewhat wide, plus it's much darker than the ceramic around, which is white. Interesting!

Respond in kind gestures that I highly doubt he did those things.

Mike will float to the edge of the area, land gently and then drag Emik's corpse to the canyon.

In a rude blacksmith's shop...

Vincent tries to express kindly that he honestly does not believe the blacksmith could have done any of the horrible things he describes!

[Nonverbal communication roll: 3]

He sort of shrugs vaguely and gives his best disbelieving look, which does not work very well due to him lacking eyes!

[Blacksmith reaction roll: 1]

The blacksmith makes the universally agreed upon "I am going to make you my bitch right here, right now" gesture, grabs all three of the rapiers, holding one in his teeth, then jumps over the shop counter and makes the universally agreed upon "en garde, plus your mother's still a whore" gesture!

[Blacksmith vs. Vincent: 2 vs. 1+2]
[Blacksmith vs. Vincent: 5 vs. 3+2]
[Blacksmith vs. Vincent: 6-1 vs. 5+2]

The blacksmith is a surprisingly adept triple-wielder, nearly hitting Vincent several times! It appears he really does mean business!


On a ceramic plain...

Mike floats to the ground and tries to figure out where Ekim is, exactly!

[Spatial intelligence roll: ?]

She figures out the distance in brain-clicks and tries to pull the bear's remains to her!

[Telekinesis roll: 1]

She concentrates so hard that she pulls the entire severed part of her spine out of her body!

[Endurance roll: 5-1]

Miraculously, she survives this, albeit barely!

Near a ceramic canyon...

Mike looks around for her spine!

[Perception roll: ?]

She can see it in the distance! It seems to be... moving?


In an unusually aggressive blacksmith's shop...

Vincent mentally declares that only one shall survive to receive the Prize, whatever that means, and goes on the offensive!

[Vincent vs. Blacksmith: 5+2 vs. 2+1]

He stabs him right through the chest with both halberds at once!

[Blacksmith endurance roll: 3]

The blacksmith bleeds profusely, but says absolutely nothing! He also does absolutely nothing, so it's a net win for Vincent! Better chop his head off. It's the only way to be sure.

[Vincent vs. Blacksmith: 2+2 vs. 1]

Vincent uses two of his arms to swing the halberds in a crosswise fashion, messily decapitating the blacksmith! He waits for some lightning and a rush of energy!

The closest thing to something like that comes to Vincent when he realizes that he is now free to loot the blacksmith's shop!

Explore the mind, hopefully finding that 'poet'
((and James is back...
To running around his mind again.
*sighs*))

Inside his own mind...

James goes on to explore his own mind in a metaphorical journey!

[Exploration roll: 4]

He goes past the Funny Jokes to Remember In A Temple section, passes the Great Leaps of Illogic department, does not even think to look in the Forgettable Literature subdivision and even bypasses the Random Thoughts vortex to reach a room! There seems to be a throne in it. On it sits... well, nothing sits on it at all. That's pretty strange. Thrones are meant to be filled, you know.

~OH, HELLO. YOU HAVE MANAGED TO REACH THE THRONE ROOM! HOW NICE! GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GET A MOVE ON!~

"No! No no no! You comes back here dis instant!"
Timothy stamped a spectral foot and shouted at the retreating Louis in exasperation. This really was getting ridiculous!
"You's captive, an' should be really acting like one! Now!"
He glanced to his useless allies, raising one ghostly eyebrow. "Youse going to does somethin', or just be stannin' around there like vegetables?!"

>Command Citizen Louis to cease this unseemly business and return to his role as captive!

>If he refuses, get the others to grab him!

>Whether or not they succeed, load everyone back into the wagon, check the status of my friends, and then get back on the road again.

Insult poet by saying that he probably isn't a poet and just thought the name was cool
Ask him to make a poem to prove it.
Taunt him mercilessly if he fails,
say it's rubbish and taunt him mercilessly if he succeeds
