Re: The Alchemist's Lair

Jednesa sets a foot against the wall, takes the door with both hands hands, and with a grunt hauls back to open it.




OOC:  17:49, Today: Jednesa rolled 16 using 3d6.  ST 30, Forcing the Door open all the way.

Barely succeeded... with a MoS +14.  Not enough to snap hinges, but should be enough to force the door open a good deal.

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

The elder sister rushes into the room where Masugatan dropped his torch on the bedding.

"Fire?  Where?"

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

The younger sister points to the bed, still uncertain whether she managed to fully extinguish the bedding.

"Dropped torch, Holiness."

The younger sister whispers to Masugatan.  "Better not let Valerie hear that -- or am I mistaken?"

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

The elder sister grabs the torch by the handle and tosses it toward Masugatan, and begins patting down the scorched and wet bedding.

"I heard of a bed once that got a spark from the fireplace on it, and then burned the house down two days later."

Practically burying her face in the mess, she sniffs at the bed.

"I know how to be sure."
  She speaks a couple words and gestures carefully.  "That should take care of that."

As the burning bed is extinguished,  and Valerie stays by the cart and Christine enters the structure,
the door opens with a screech...and something damp and primordial oozes its way out!

Jednesa takes a half step back, picks up her handaxe from where she leaned it, and goes to take another step back and finds herself out of room...

Leaving Chris to assist Valerie if she needs it, Christine returns just in time to see the ooze coming out!

"Crispin, looks like something needs to be burnt!"

[Private to GM: Rolled 12, standard Frequency of Appearance, for Crispin. Or was he still with us from last time? I can't remember...]

In reply to Narrator (msg # 99):

Oh, that is right...the fire we had, the torch, some idiot felt compelled to use to try to burn the [place down instead of using it for light like a normal person...perhaps that same idiot can deal with the slime coming from the door then, while Christine goes to investigate the book she was called for.

Unless the slime will trap everyone in that room where the book is...

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

Having completed putting out the fire, the elder sister turns and looks where the younger is pointing.

"That's not natural!  McReady, er, Alchemist Mcready, do you have any acid handy?"

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

Elaina suddenly starts looking around the room, without moving yet.

[Private to GM: 17:00, Today: Elaina Grattan rolled 13 using 3d6.  Int (13) to remember concerns about the "expired" light vials.
Looking for nearest light sconce.

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

OOC:  Just to point out, Jednesa is (as I understand it) downstairs (the railed stairs lead down to a landing) where she has opened the buckled iron door.  It's likely the only person trapped in a 'room' with the multicolored blob, is Jednesa, because she is not fast moving up tiny stairs.

Or, more than likely, it's trapped down there with her, and any incoming fireballs, sunbolts, vials of alchemist fire, etc...

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

Elaina slips a finger through the loop on her sling and pulls it from her belt.  She drops the tent pole with the glow on the end and holds out her left hand.

"Give it to me, I'll get it there."

She goes to look at the book, using her staff to drag it out from under the bed before touching it.

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

Evelina accepts the vial, loads it into the pouch of her sling, then rocks it for a heartbeat as she aims before spinning it through a single loop and releasing.

Re: The Alchemist's Lair

Jednesa attempts to rear back and swing down on the blob before her, but in the confined space doesn't have the room, so with a grunt she gives the blob a poke with her handaxe...

In reply to Jednesa (msg # 110):

the jelly recoils from the hit, and is struck a moment later with a small glass vial, which fizzes, even as it sits halfway into the bubbling mass of the thing.. .
throwing a breakable object onto a squishy targeydoes not necessarily cause it to brak.
