The AirplaneCalm myself down, and try to find something to suck the venom out with.
[calm: 6] You are calm like ancient glacier.
But seriously there's nothing that can help you with the venom.
The City in DarkI'm so sorry about threatening you, it's just kind of shocking to suddenly be in the dark, hehe. But guys like us have to stick together at a time like this, would you please tell me what happened to you.
Take my hand out of my pocket, and try and calm the man down.
"S-sure, I understand. S-sorry if I seem nervous, it's just been a very long and very strange day. I was on a train ride to a security conference when all of a sudden the train stopped and the lights went out. I felt around and found that all the people in the train were dead, reduced to skeletons!"
"Somehow, the train had been transported to a cave filled with poisonous snakes. We've got to find a way out of here!"
Try to calm down. ((Is there any need to eat or drink in this game? Should we get supplies?))
You want me to roll for this? Really? Okay.
[Nathaniel calming: 6] Nathaniel delivers powerful uppercut into Eddie's jaw knocking him out. That sure calms him down.
[Eddie calming: 6] Yup. Calm and out in cold. Neurological damage caused by that punch gave you nerves of steel. Nothing shakes you anymore.
((If you are planning to go on longer excursions, which are very possible, you do want to get something. I probably will handwave as long as you have something to eat. Easier for me that way. But food and water may be easy to acquire anyway as long as you aren't very picky.))
Engraved cave"Hey! I've written a few of these... Wilson... Being the great sage of the nether realms, do you know anything about this? It looks like a code.. Maybe encrypted!"
Joe glances around the cave and whispers "But who put it here? Maybe it was the transylvanian mountain lizards! I didn't think they could get me here!!!"
Roll to ask Wilson for some knowledge. Pull away as much of the Moss as possible so we can see the whole thing.
((Wish I had some paper and a pen, will have to improvise.))
[Wilson: 1]
"Figure it out by yourself. I'm not your handy translator."What moss? There's no moss covering any engravings. Just darkness, which is a plenty. So I assume you want to follow the wall further in.
So, you proceed further into the cave following the engraved wall. The floor is a small roller coaster by having lots of hills, and in few low points you see ponds of dirty water. And rabbits.
[Forbidden knowledge: 6] Eventually you find a spot where engraved text is less insane. It contains references to ocean, deserts, dogs, nascent godlings and divine mandates.
((What's with these extremes?))
Glowing tunnel 2Hobble forth on the trail of Joe.
Climbing up the hill towards light chasm ain't your favourite trip, but man have to do what man have to do.
The chasm is quite much like the previous tunnel with gold veins, namely glowing with unseen lightsource. Floor is asphalt with plenty of glass shards and embedded foot tracks coming from back of this tunnel. 50 meters in you see a soft chair in middle of the tunnel.
[spot: 3 vs 2] There seems to be a kid standing behind the chair.
Investigate my surroundings. Search for anything that could be useful. Hide behind my chair if I hear someone approaching.
Asphalt floor, glass shards, a chair. Glass shards are too small to be useful in any sense, except if you have a handful of them, then they make excellent throwing weapon. Might hurt your hands if you aren't careful enough.
Another man enters into the tunnel from same direction as the crazy one did. This one is big and very muscular. He's wearing sunglasses, brown robe like monks in movies. He also has hairstyle like those monks, bald on top but hair growing freely from sides. His goatee doesn't match with the hair, however.
[Hiding: 2 vs 3] He doesn't look inherity dangerous as much as funny with his mismatched appearance so you kind of just stand behind the chair.
