Gesture to Ahrian to follow, head over to the rope. Check it out as much as possible, and if it it least seems safe, climb down.

"Heh, they always did say I was a natural at poetry. At any rate, I must get back to what I was doing.
Best of luck in your future endeavors, Mr... Snow, I believe it was?"

Edmund gives the disgraced rapper a fairly smug smirk and walks off.

Continue on with the search for ways to get down. Or just go over to that vine rope, if I can actually see it.

((And I'll put a point into clever-ness.))

Follow the spear-girl, and aid her as best I can, but don't put my weight on the rope while her weight is on it. block others that attempt to put their weight on the rope while she is using it. the weight of multiple people might cause the rope to break.

"Well.... I didn't know my own strength hahaha! If I knew I could just do that then I wouldn't have wasted my time trying to knock him out."

Unlucky notices a new person in the room... and that the dead guy has some neat looking stuff. Person + neat loot = sooooo much fun.

"I'm gonna rape ya bitch! Pfft, Hahaha not really.... I just wanted to say that at someone before I kill 'em."


Loot the guy's corpse and and try out his stuff on the girl... starting with the dangerous looking loot. And have Mylio try to transform into something other then a chipmunk.

Have a look round for the spear halberd.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Read the book. Killing people can wait.
Hm. It seems to be a graphic representation of you, from anatomy to...stuff written in a language you don't recognize. Maybe two or three.
The guy to the north, by the chipmunk, says something friendly-sounding to you. You wave back. Then you feel something hugging you. Weird.

Gesture to Ahrian to follow, head over to the rope. Check it out as much as possible, and if it it least seems safe, climb down.
Follow the spear-girl, and aid her as best I can, but don't put my weight on the rope while her weight is on it. block others that attempt to put their weight on the rope while she is using it. the weight of multiple people might cause the rope to break.
The two girls head over to the vine rope [3+3+3,7+1+3] and notice that it doesn't go to the first ledge, let alone the bottom. Also disturbing is a splotch of blood on the ledge and an abandoned fragment of vine, although no corpse is present.

"Heh, they always did say I was a natural at poetry. At any rate, I must get back to what I was doing.
Best of luck in your future endeavors, Mr... Snow, I believe it was?"

Edmund gives the disgraced rapper a fairly smug smirk and walks off.

((And I'll put a point into clever-ness.))
take a point away from something. Also help SomeStupidGuy in his quest.
And when I say "help SomeStupidGuy" I mean shove him off the edge of the mountain.
[5-2v2-1] Edmund looks for a way down. Snow helps him in his quest by revealing and initializing an unforseen method of vertical transport. By this, I mean Edmund gets shoved off the cliff.
[7-1] He's okay so far...although his clothes are starting to show wear. [MPR: 5] You're about a quarter of the way down.

"Well.... I didn't know my own strength hahaha! If I knew I could just do that then I wouldn't have wasted my time trying to knock him out."
Unlucky notices a new person in the room... and that the dead guy has some neat looking stuff. Person + neat loot = sooooo much fun.

Loot the guy's corpse and and try out his stuff on the girl... starting with the dangerous looking loot. And have Mylio try to transform into something other then a chipmunk.
"Chitter chitta chat." You don't think Mylio is any happier about this than you are. Anyways, loot. You make the crazy assumption that the big, spiky halberd will be the most dangerous and try to use it on the girl, who is too busy reading to really notice you. (She does wave, however.) [9+1-1] You successfully activate it, causing her [8-4] labcoat to animate. It sorta writhes. Um...

'Hey! I recognise that spear!'
Propose a team up with the woman with the spear.
"People who at least say they don't want to kill me? Sure. I don't want to kill, so... it's a good idea to join up with you..."
'Ah, wrong spear actually. Ah, well, truce anyway?'
Have a look round for the spear halberd.
S-sure.
They chat, and Fezzy joins the Unnamed League of Girls. [4-3] The halberd is nowhere to be seen.

Jill Wonder spawns!
Jill is...quite an interesting girl. She has some...interesting hobbies alongside normal ones. Also...interesting, even for her, is the jumpsuit that is loose enough for her to wear over her (slightly smooshed) dress. It's red and hooded, with buttons fastening it together along the front. Intriguing...

Statuses

-----

P.S. Cheesecake submitted a character by PM for some reason.
Sorry for not posting a character. I thought you would ask me to make one when my turn was up.  :P

Here he is:

Name: Jurgen the Manly Scholar
Appearance: A strong, muscular, elderly scholar. Wears circular spectacles and an old university graduation hat.
Personality: A mix between an egotistic jock and a nerd. Somewhat schizophrenic.
Background: He was kicked out of his university for bullying the nerds-notably himself.

Agi 3+5-1
Clv 3+12-1
Dex 3+5-1
Lor 3+8-1
Luk 3+5-1
Per 3+5-1
Str 3+10-1
Tuf 3+10-1

Traits (if any): Extra Loot
Footnote: This turn could have been done around 2:30 if I hadn't paused to watch an episode of a Jurassic Park: Trespasser Let's Play, and would have been done a bit after 3 if not for some pre-made appointments IRL. In short, due to my own...mid-update sloth?...the update was delayed 7 hours. Sorry about that.

((Let's plays are great. I've been meaning to catch up on ChuggaaConroy's Let's Plays, but I've been a bit busy. Watching EatMyDiction1. And Seananners.

Also, what colour am I?))

Nancy watches as her coat begins doing...things. She glares up from the book at the guy who zapped her coat.

She takes this as a challenge, and tries to leap at his face and strangle him with her now Animated coat.

Something sharp and not a fucking polearm would be GREAT right now. We could stab it into the rock, and tie ourselves to each other. There's GOT to be a way down.

Judge how safe it would be to attempt landing on the ledge.
