"Er, hello?" Propman asked as he stared at the walls blankly. It would be rather inconveniencing if he was left stranded outside after fighting tooth and nail just to get there.
"Hallo there!" called a scott-accented voice. A slit in the gate opened, revealing a pair of eyes peering out of a helmet. "I don't recognize your face. Have you been here before?"

Kevak examines the two pickaxes the dwarf had.

They looked pretty dwarven. Steel heads with thick, hardwood handles.

(Arc, in the original context, what would that giant's sword have been made of?)

Anyone want a pickaxe? Kevak stows his original pickaxe and one of the Dwarven ones in his bag.

((I may or may not be offline a lot the next couple of days. So if I'm not online when stuff is happening just assume that I'm following the party. If the party was for some reason splitting up just assume I followed Senpai. If I can not follow Senpai assume that I followed Hugo.))

Propman glanced at the slit and stood up straight in order to come in-line with it. "Ah, hello there! I'm a bit new to these parts, but I've been in town at an earlier time of day as part of a group. I come seeking trade and shelter!"

[[Mithral, or something to that effect.]]

Arcvasti rips off a few strips from the hippie's T-Shirt and starts binding his wounds.

These aren't your characters, they're just facsimiles.

Anyone want a pickaxe? Kevak stows his original pickaxe and one of the Dwarven ones in his bag.
"I'm good on heavy weapons. SB, do you want one?" He goes over and looks at the discarded multicolor sword. (18) The blade was a little floppy, sort of like a steel yardstick, but carefully tapping on the edge he found it was plenty sharp. Judging by the scratches, the scintilating surface was some kind of finish applied to the material. "This looks like it might be good for cutting. Anyone want it?"

Propman glanced at the slit and stood up straight in order to come in-line with it. "Ah, hello there! I'm a bit new to these parts, but I've been in town at an earlier time of day as part of a group. I come seeking trade and shelter!"
"Hmm... I think I've heard of someone about fitting your description coming this way earlier. Do you have any items you think might be magical?"

Propman looked around, as if checking to see if anybody else was watching. "Now that you mention it, I do have something..."

He took out the gemstone pawn, holding it in between the two fingers of his left hand. "Found it a while ago, don't know what it does. Don't think it's immediately dangerous, at any rate."

Zanzetkuken continued up the stairs.  He originally was going to try the doors he saw, but then noticed that, rather than being doors, they were just sections of the wall meant to look like doors.  He walked through the lobby when he came across it, and entered a large office.  There he heard the narrator again.

"Stepping into the manager's office, [Zanz real name] was stunned to discover no sign of human life there."

"Just humans?" Zanzetkuken said, holding the M1 to the ready position.

"Um...no.  There's no life besides him in this room in general."

"Okay then." Zanzetkuken said, relaxing the rifle.

"[Zanz real name] wondered aloud, 'What could it mean?'"

"It just mean that I am in a puzzle room." Zanzetkuken said.  "Not that hard."

"He began wildly tearing through papers..."

"Hey, a keypad."

"Please stop going off script so much.  You're ruining the story."

"Fine."

"Good.  Alright, I'll just have to skip a few lines then.  Here we are.  His attention was caught by a keypad behind the manager's desk.  What could its purpose be?"

"Opens a door."

"In fact, this keypad guarded the terrible secret that laid buried below his feet."

"Well that's specific."

"And so, the boss assigned it an extra secret pin number-"

"Too many to guess, let's see what happens if I do this," Zanzetkuken raised his M1 and aimed at the lock.

"No!  Wait!"

He fired and (20) hit the keypad, which caused (20 - Looks like I can't roll this die anymore.  Going to want to loan it to someone during the campaign I'm going to run during a critical point.) a secret door to open.

"That worked," Zanzetkuken said, lowering the rifle.

"I was just about to tell you what it was!"

"Oh well, door's still open."

The voice sighed.  "Well, at very least we can get on with the story."

"If you want that, you'll probably want to go to the other group," Zanzetkuken said, as he looked inside to the next room.

"Why?"

"Because the next room isn't 'the Stanley Parable.  It's Skyrim," Zanzetkuken said, as raised his rifle and, using the Stealth Kill ability, killed a Draugr.

"...I think I'll go see how they're doing."

"You go..." Zanzetkuken started, then feeling the Stealth Kill ability fade from the remaining looking to where she was, having heard the voice.  He continued, deflated, "do that.  This is gonna suck."

((Actually, the narrator will follow you through subsequent segments, though I can write what he says if you want. Each segment will contain some kind of cryptic hint (or the fact that that segment was what is was is the hint). Though, he probably would go check on us real quick.))

"Oh... you killed them. Let's see... ah! Bashing their insecurities apart proved therapeutic for some, but the party couldn't help but think that this encounter left them with more questions than answers."

(Yeah, but Zanz permiting, I'd like to have it give multiple once it's all finished. I think it could probably count as a boss.)

(So long as none is given for rooms where you did nothing but walk through them, XP could be multiple.  Probably should give the XP as rooms are completed, so we don't forget any.)

(Also, for the narrator, have him really confused when he cuts back to me.)

(It's not really based on the number of sub-rooms, but rather I was thinking it would give everyone either 3 or 5 when the 2nd main segment is complete)

HugoLuman continued picking through the scraps, looking for anything useful. That bot was right, about him not wanting to show it. He couldn't shake his nagging doubts. "You know, for a 'truth' room, we've sure seen a lot of fake things."

"...they seem to be doing alright. Aside from that one you left back at the start. Hmm, where are you now? I seem to have lost place."
