In a locked-off garden...

Vincent thinks about a likely place to explore around here. Let's see, he's explored the garden, sort of, and and he's spent more time in the lounge than he's comfortable to admit. What he hasn't done, however, is explore the three doors leading away from the lounge! He chooses a door at random.

[Door choice roll: 3]

He takes the door leading south. He goes right in!

[Place contents roll: 2]

It looks to be an empty storehouse. Next door!

[Door choice roll: 1]

North door, don't fail him now!

[Place contents roll: 2]

Also an empty storehouse. These temple builders sure love their empty storehouses, the stingy bastards. Final door.

Well, this one seems to be a shrine. There's lots of green on the walls, plus an altar made of wood and decorated with leaves. The whole place is full of leaves and flowers and stuff.

[Place occupant roll: 3]

There appears to be a glowing skeleton kneeling before it. It is surrounded by a bunch of skeletal animals, also glowing and, strangely enough, kneeling as well.


Outside a Velusian treasure room...

Luke tries to pull himself out of his telekinetic imprisonment!

[Luke's strength vs. Darren's telekinesis: 3+1 vs. 5]

He can't seem to pull himself out of the hold this infernal magic has on him, and he is held fast. Whoever that random floating pile of clothes is, it's good at this. Comes with practice, Luke guesses.

Inside Bernie's inn...

Tom tries to light the inn on fire with the gooey implement he found on the counter!

It seems to be a bit too slimy to manage this. You know how slime is.

[Tinderbox reaction roll: 5]

It shimmers slightly once again, though its gooey state remains as it is.

[Perception roll: ?]

Tom can't quite put his finger on it, but he gets the feeling that all this is somebody else's fault. That may, however, be only wishful thinking on his part.

'Bah, magical fire. Magic hasn't done anything for me so far, so no use for it now. I'll find another box of fire.'

Find another tinderbox. Light the inn on fire. Walk to new town.

Inside Bernie's inn...

Tom decides to look for another tinderbox, as this one is clearly too gooey to be of any use.

[Search roll: 2]

However, it looks like there are no other ones around. Just this one. Weird.

[Tinderbox reaction roll: 4]

The tinderbox shimmers once again.

[Perception roll: ?]

Stupid magical tinderboxes and their stupid shimmering.

Back to the clothes, introduce them to SHARKHAMMER!tm

Outside a Velusian treasure room...

Luke tries to break out of his spell and get that impudent set of clothing!

[Luke's strength vs. Darren's telekinesis: 4+1 vs. 4]

He moves slightly! He's progressing! He's not there yet, however!


In a still not-burned-down inn...

Tom decides to leave before he manages to fail even worse at setting the inn on fire. Too bad, though. It would have looked quite awesome to leave a burning four-story building behind as he leaves.

[Tinderbox reaction roll: 5]

The tinderbox shimmers once again. What is up with that thing?

[Perception roll: ?]

It doesn't seem particularly malicious, to tell the truth. Strange. Ah, that's best sorted out later. For now, to the next town he goes! There's bound to be better loot there. There seem to be four roads leading out of town, though. One seems to lead to a hilled area, another continues into a forest, the third seems to lead to a large black castle some distance away while the last looks to lead to a friendly-looking plain. So many choices!

"Uhh, no. They were mages, and also kind of good at killing their allies, so I doubt they went and had some swords for breakfast."

'Mountain of probable loot,  dark forest of probable death, dark castle of probable death and loot, and plain of boring animals... choices, choices. Time for a time honored method of making decisions passed down from insipid loot-obsessed murderers since time immemorial.

[d4:2]

Dark Forest of Death, Pain, and Killable Things it is! The tinderbox is probably going to explode into flames in a few minutes anyway. Magic has a tendency to that.'


Onward! Drop the tinderbox on the doorstep.
