"I went with the crafting because that's always useful. I think we'll be fine since we're in a tight group and one of us has a gun, and he doesn't seem that insane. All we need to do is not split up and remember try to tell when this story goes from the first act (where no-one can die because we're still setting up the conventions of the story) and the second act (where everything is fucked). We'll be fine, this kind of situation is usually very clichιd. I bet you by the end of this we'll be all laughing, then jumping up in the air in a freezeframe."

"I... Doubt that. Anyone can die here, after all, it's just not permanent, although I have no doubt that there's some creature that kills you permanently."
Blitz walks up to the door.
"However, we can apply tropes to some things. Regardless, are we all ready? Once you leave there's no backing out without dying, and I'm not sure any of you want a spontaneous gender and appearance change."

"Well, I'd rather be a girl then dead, but then again I imagine if that happened I'd be someone's fantasy, so..."
There is a brief, awkward pause.
"Let's just stop imagining that, then."

"We found this shop offering magical healthcare and advice, though more advice. The guy there says he can cure lycanthropy, but it's difficult since he needs a certain corpse from back in the dungeon. Oh yeah, and these," he taps on his wrist device, "are apparently very hard to get rid of. So, did you find anything interesting?"

Having steadied herself, Zanzetkuken didn't flinch, just replying, "Besides weapons and armor being really high priced, nothing much."

((Since this is open RP, crafting depends on what you know how to make/think you could cobble together, though I suppose you're free to roll for yourself on experimental attempts. However, you might want to change it from a quantitative to a qualitative bonus.))

A stench of blood was wafting through the open door into the starting room.

"We found this shop offering magical healthcare and advice, though more advice.

HugoLuman wasn't sure if he believed her, but he decided not to press about it for now. "I suppose we won't have much to talk about on the way back to the square, then. Well, SB here is thinking of trading some of his ammo for something at the shops, but I can't think of anything, unless you know where we might get some sandals or something for almost nothing."

GentlemanRaptor fiddles with his device.
"Alright, Sniper it is. Looks like the starting skill is something named...Headshot, that's it. I'll take that."
He looks around the room.
"Well, seein' as how we're going by forum handles around here, my name is GentlemanRaptor. If you guys are ready, let's roll."

"Let's do this!"

McDonalds walks up to the door, slowly opens and peeks inside. He turns around with a horrified look on his face.

"Oh my god... There are dead children on the floor, one of them missing their head. There are also piles of shit strewn about. I could also see three doors on every side of that room.

"... Is there another exit?"

Fniff holds his hammer close and cowers behind GentlemanRaptor.

GentlemanRaptor gulps, then nods.
"Well, that room's probably already been cleared, anyhow. Let's go, and try not to vomit too much on the way through, yeah?"
He slips through the door into the room.
