Sure Red. I'll try and remember to append that in front of all of your actions.
Turn 23tehstefan (Roderick)If I can climb out by any means necessary, I try that, however, if it looks to be taking too much time, I just run deeper into the cave, if its the only way I can get out.
(4) There's a vine hanging down, close the the wall- you think you can scramble up. (4) You rush out, with your trusty bow on your back and Joe's other horn, as proof of your deed. You crawl our from the gap, and find yourself on top of the hill. (5) Your
theme song plays. Several seconds later, the entire hill erupts behind you, as you walk slowly away. Your family has been avenged, and you live to tell the tale.
Wimdit (Laodike)Woo! Sling him over my back, sticking his head into my shirt so he isn't recognized as easily, and take him back to my hideout. Workshop. Whatever.
Tie him to a chair in a dark room. Now, what would the Liberal Crime Squad do in this situation?
(6) Nobody notices you. Not because they can't tell you're slinging an unconscious body over your back, but because a disturbingly large portion of the market district is doing so. You do
not want to know what this is a convention for. Nonetheless, you bring the duke back to your basement and tie him to a chair. (5) While he's still unconscious, you set up a bright gas lantern in his face, then hang your loudest, most ominously ticking clock on the wall. You even tie a bunch of knives to your printing press so it looks like some horrible torture device (it doesn't even work, of course). The moment he wakes up you level your cross bow at him. "We can do this the easy way... or the hard way." (?) He immediately says "Ok, I'll tell you everything I know!" and starts to go on about a lot of things you never, ever, wanted to hear.
Terrible things. Terrible, eldritch secrets the likes of which no mortal mind should be brought to know. (2) You, ah... never thought about Cthulu that way. You slap him and ask him to tell you about the
war machine. (?)(?+1) He tells you with earnest that he's been having Reginald design a flying machine, based on information he was getting for the dwarf informant. It would allow them to take the Cheese Diamond to Mt. Smyrr in northern climes, where it could be -if used properly- destroyed with the demon in it. Of course, the rest of the nobles who were in on it wanted to use it for battle purposes. And some of the Griffon Monks who were occupying the temple at the time of the murder (seriously, that place is a warzone) thought it would 'skew the great balance', or something. Both possible culprit parties. Or, the duke adds jeeringly, it could have been the butler.
Redwarrior0 (Red the Red)I shall strike a menacing (and very dashing) pose, then proceed with my lieutenants to seek out the duke.
(1+1=2) You know what? You just don't feel very dashing right now. Maybe later. Now, where's that duke? (2) Hoo, boy. What a mess. It's the annual 'Kidnap a Noble' convention. Nobles and noble stand-ins are being kidnapped left and right. If the duke
isn't kidnapped, he's in hiding. You decide to abscond before the fangirls notice you. This is going to be difficult.
Jetsquirrel (?)Create a branch fire monkey dance clan that originates from the Monkey dance clan, and go to those students!
Okey dokey. (5) Your pupils are already prepared, wearing red, flowing robes. One or two or working on fresh pints, and another is even already hanging up torches. Heh, forget seeking out that demon. You're becoming martial arts master of the cheese kingdom! What now?
Kilakan (Kilaran)Attempt to remove the stuck bolt in my hand, then begin the ascent upwards, avoiding any wizards who might yell YOU CANNOT PASS and destroy the bridge.
It's in your arm, for the record. You make an attempt at removing the buried bolt head. (5) You flex your muscles and push it out. That's the dwarven way! Just like Urist Asdosagak in those propaganda posters. Up you go, no sense in delaying. (5) You weave among the stairs that are still in tact like one of the quiet things that dwells in the darkness. The top of the shaft is blocked by a drawbridge- a huge door for all intents and purposes. There are doors to the trade depot and lever center, and no doubt more places for you to search. Unfortunately, the clearly labeled 'shaft door' lever only causes the bridge above to heave and grunt; it appears to be blocked or otherwise hindered.
