Nirur glances around at his group briefly, pondering what would happen if any of them gets to Celestia. "I'll go to Celestia, of course."
"I suppose I'm the only other one qualified to deal with undead." He grins wickedly. "Are you sure the angels won't attack a guard-slayer on sight?"
"I ... I am no guard slayer. I will not rise to your bait."
"If you say so. I'll go organize a ... party of academics."
Nirur heads to the biggest library, looking for long-forgotten clues.
Torir, not needing to find clues, looks for a party. If he finds none, he will organize one. Someone should have alcohol stored away in a place like this.
(5) Nirur finds a huge library. And then looks up to see people walking all over the ceiling and shelves... This variable gravity thing is disorienting... (6) Nirur finds an old journal with "Atenniab Lakedream" written on the cover. He opens it, and reads a long passage about the last time the universe was in peril, from the Dark Lord Lightslayer Grimderp McOverthetop, the Eater of Babies' Souls. Atenniab was a Paladin sent from the Temple of the Elven goddess Thaaluson, and was sent into the realm of Celestia. She hid the gate somewhere in the library, in a secret room that can only be accessed by taking the only book from her personal library (other than this journal) in the library. There is also a very annoying riddle: "The tale of Barrel-Rider, and Spider-Slayer, the Ring-Thief and the Companion of Dwarves." Why all of the riddles? (This book actually exists in the Real World. And you should have read it if you are familiar with fantasy novels. If nobody gets it, I'll tell you next turn.)
Torir decides that a party is in order, and where else to hold a party than a school! (2) Damn stuffy little twerps... They're all between 16 and 25! Or the equivalent for their species! They should
love any excuse for a party! *sigh*
"I guess I'm heading into the Abyss, huh? Guess I could always take a looksee around the ancestral homestead." He thought for a moment. Hmm. Guess I could go ask that succubus where the entrance is, she probably came from there. He went back down the hall to find her and ask her where the entrance was, and how to open it if she knew.
(5) You go into the classroom where the succubus was "teaching" a minute ago. You ask her, "Uh, miss? Do you happen to know where the portal to the Abyss is?" She looks at you, and says, "
Why do you want to know, little Tiefling? You do realize that you will not be very welcome there... The Demon Lords do not like a halfbreed trying to get favors from his parent..." "Well, you see, I'm apparently a hero now, by no fault of mine, and I need to access the Balance-thing to save the world or something." She laughs. "
A half-demon, saving the world? Ha! Well, since you have given me such amusement, I will aid you. For a price. You need to get the notebook of the professor of mechanics to me. I will show you the gate then." Hey, breaking and entering is your specialty, right? No problem!
So we have to do this now? Fair enough. I will enact TEH PLAN immediately afterward.
Look for the portal for r00botz.
(1) You look through the hallways, and end up in a dark part of the school with glowing crystals on the walls. A small man runs past you, screaming, "The creature is free! Run for your lives!" You hear a loud noise from around the corner, and a tentacle suddenly shoots toward you. (dodge:4) You step out of the way, and see a monstrous ball of tentacles and claws coming towards you on hundreds of little legs. Damn eldritch abominations.
why do we have to use portals? why not just planejump the entire group to another plane and do it that way?
*sigh*
Go an' fin' da' po'al fo' da' wata' plan'
Hmmm... Maybe there's a swimming pool or something? (2) Well, if there is, you can't find it. You don't see anything particularly interesting in this stretch of obnoxiously twisty hallway, either.
Fred? Fred?! FREEEEED?! SPEAK TO ME MAN! I WILL GIVE YOU THOUGHT!
It's time to create a brain for Fred! Let's do this! (5) You find an apparently unused laboratory! With all sorts of neat tools! (+1 to mechanics, -1 to sanity) (3+1+1) You're on a roll! +1 to usefulness, efficiency! (sanity:4-1) And you manage to stop doing anything too ridiculous... (power:4) It's a fairly intelligent brain you just made. (size:5) And it has to be lodged in Fred's chest cavity instead of his head. Oh well, that doesn't actually effect anything. (usefulness:1+1) It's prone to overheating, so it might shut down whenever Fred shoots his cannon. But only on a 1. (efficiency:6+1) And it actually produces gunpowder as a byproduct of whatever alchemical reaction you got to run this thing, so no more problems for Fred. You install the brain into the Fred-shell, and turn it on. "
Hello Master. What is my name?" "You are Fred. Fred the cannon-bot." "
Alright, master. Thank you for creating me."
I wonder which one is for me 
Start looking around the academy for any dojo type area's.
Time to find that portal to the MP. The Generic Asian one. (1) Hey, you found a dojo-type place! One that appears to be populated entirely by dummies! That can walk! The door seals behind you, and the dummies start to move in your direction...

Profession: Thief
Background: He's been kicked around his entire life as you might expect and resorted to thievery since Tieflings are branded as thieves and untrustworthy anyway. He's very small time and hasn't progressed much beyond mugging, purse stealing, pickpocketing, and robbing the poor.

Has no goals of his own besides survival, goes around helping people with various things for lack of a better purpose. Will do anything asked of him unless he has a reason not to (if it conflicts with an existing goal or his basic morality). Lawful Good (as in lawful as the opposite of chaotic). Extremely logical and unemotional. Dislikes entropic behavior. Is good with machines (clockwork and a bit of early steam power, I guess).
When he does talk, it sounds something like the above paragraph.

Profession: Paladin.
Background: His people believe themselves to be the only true guardians of the material plane; the best way to help the mortal inhabitants of said plane is by not touching anything. Obviously this is what The Creator had in mind, and any who meddle in the plane, and therefore blaspheme The Creator, are to be punished severely.
After three decades of military service (doing nothing), he has been sent out as a sort of test to determine the extent of the planer distortion, fix it if possible, find the perpetrators, deliver justice, then report back.
