(and there's another tunnel across the pit?)
Morgan O'Donnell (Oct 26, 2010 12:00:16 AM)
*ws* we could use the rope and lower down to a ledge if there is one
Sky Chaser (Oct 26, 2010 12:00:26 AM)
[It's about a dozen yards across. Across the gap, the tunnel continues like it did behind you, then a turn to the left.]

((Could I fly the gap...glide/jump))
-Bloody Mary- Evie D'Arque (Oct 26, 2010 12:01:14 AM)
(a dozen yards is 36 feet. we can't jump it in any form.) *Evie shines the light to see if Sarah thinks she can fly it*
-Bloody Mary- Evie D'Arque (Oct 26, 2010 12:02:04 AM)
(or can she get help by being thrown?)
Rory Donovan (Oct 26, 2010 12:02:22 AM)

[You could fly it, but there's nothing to indicate that the other side goes anywhere. It's probably a waste of time, especially as there's no light that way.]
Sarah Runningfox (Oct 26, 2010 12:09:29 AM)
((fine with that statement...does any other direction look promising?))
-Bloody Mary- Evie D'Arque (Oct 26, 2010 12:09:31 AM)
::Lets go another way... we'll worry about this if that's a dead end. Back the other way::
-Bloody Mary- Evie D'Arque (Oct 26, 2010 12:10:08 AM)
*if Evie can make it out without knocking anyone over, she starts moving. She tucks the maglight away once she can see without it and the others are with her.*
Rory Donovan (Oct 26, 2010 12:10:09 AM)
*just waited for the others, sniffing around trying to find any sign of the right direction if scent was any indication, or noises around*
Sky Chaser (Oct 26, 2010 12:10:25 AM)
[Well, there's bone-wall direction, which leads to annonymous LARGE roaring thing, and out, which leads to curving (but climbable) walls up and sideways, and Abyss Mouth down below.]
Sky Chaser (Oct 26, 2010 12:10:38 AM)
[And then there's side passages back the way you came from.]
-Bloody Mary- Evie D'Arque (Oct 26, 2010 12:10:47 AM)
So we have a pit that way, the bone monster that way, and the other tunnen that way. Lets try the other tunnel first.
Rory Donovan (Oct 26, 2010 12:11:04 AM)
i say we go up *when the others came around*
Sarah Runningfox (Oct 26, 2010 12:11:22 AM)
*looks to Evie* ws her hunt.
Sarah Runningfox (Oct 26, 2010 12:11:30 AM)
*shrugs prepared to follow her*
Sarah Runningfox (Oct 26, 2010 12:12:03 AM)
ws Could fly it....no promises it's not yet another gap ahead. One tunnel is as good as another currently.
Sky Chaser (Oct 26, 2010 12:13:02 AM)
*Back the way people came from, there's a side-branching tunnel into darkness... with a gory skeleton of a teenage girl missing the flesh of its face, throat, and left arm. ...MOVING ON... there's a tunnel that curves about five feet in, with a small pain-spirit curled up, grimacing and twitching.*
Morgan O'Donnell (Oct 26, 2010 12:13:32 AM)
*She stared for a moment at the teenage girl

*paused, eyeing the spirit*
gs Pain spirit might have information....if you pay the price...which is always pain.
i'll do if, if that's the route taken
"otherwise i can try the questing stoner method and see where it pulls."
do it*
:: its the abyss :: *matter of factly* :: its not a nice place:: *to rory* ::Its my quest. I'll take th pain.::
we'll need you to find the way out, i can take some pain and still keep going, you need to stay on your feet
*The next tunnel contains a chest. seemingly made of steel, with five small holes in the front, and a black fury symbol across the top. The fourth contains... a very large pile of dust, roughly six feet tall.*
::Jermy, try it, otherwise, lets do wot we gotta an get outta here.::
[And those are the side tunnels.]
"I will need some time about 10 minutes"
::Wait!!... ::
*browsed down the tunnels, coming to a stop next to evie* hey... aint that...?
*she looks at the chest with the Fury symbol on it* ::wot're the chances? This can't be it, can it? ::
[First person to reach into the dust gets bitten.]
it can't be this easy...
*flicks an ear*
*Evie examines the chest to see how its sealed.*
"looks like you might need 5 keys.... or talons to get in it."
*inched toward the dust, sniffing at it but not touching it*
(what dust?
((okay nm now see it))
*Evie looks and listens, very curious about the chest. Even if its not what they're there for, this is of interest to her.*
*Oddly enough, the chest just seems to be reinforced steel, no real seal... but the top doesn't appear to be able to be lifted, the seam too small to even wedge something in. The five openings on the front could easily accomodate an entire homid finger... in fact... four in a group, then one, on a small circle?*
*sighs and shifts Homid* I just know if I go grabbin those holes I'm losing fingers.
[Although, human form doesn't have the REACH to do it.]
gs They grow back most of the time.
*she took out her maglight and looked inside to see into the holes.*
*getting nothing interesting out of the smell of the dust, he went back to the symbol and waited by evie* want me to pick you up?
gs Could try open seal I suppose...but that looks...odd.
I'm tryin' t' work out how. It may not have anythin t' do with why I'm here, but if th Abyss really wanted t' feck with us it'd be an Uktena symbol *snickered*
*It seems that the holes are just... holes. They extend about six inches in, ending with a conical end. As if they're designed to incorporate claws.*
*shifted Dalu and tried to compare her hand with the holes for size without putting them in yet.*
*ROAR! Whatever's behind the pile of bones back down the path is STILL around, and large.*
(er... Glabro)
*Still too small, sadly... but getting there?*
time to upsize!
*shifted Crinos, tried the same test.*
::Shifts to watch the entrance and not the box as he pulls his sword.::
*looks at Evie*
*she shifts warform nervous about the raoring, she has a spear*
Awright, if I do this... Well, if I yell an curse a lot ye'll know wot happened.
*Well, it seems that Evie's claws will JUST fit. Aw, isn't that cute. The claw grip is just waiting for her.*
that, an' wotever is behind the bones is prolly gonna break loose and wotever yer grabbin' is gonna be the only thing to put it back down
i watch too many movies...
*she checks the other sides to be certain there isn't more to it. still apprehensive.* ::gs:: I hope if this goes bad, that they do grow back. *She sighed and inserted her fingers to the appropriate holes*
*Hooray. The claws fit, and the circular plate just... sits there, in the front of the chest.*
*She huffs at the dust
*she tries to turn the plate one way or the other.*
*In the next tunnel up from Evie, Rory, and Sarah... the dust huffs back at Morgan.*
*looked over at morgan, moving over to give her a nudge*
*ws* it's alive?
*And turning the left-hand plate to the right results in a click, and the chest springing open.*
everythin' is alive here... remember where we are *looking at the dust* that an' we came across the cheshire cat earlier... trippy little shit
*jumps a bit when it opens, she'll take the lid with her right hand to hold it openand pulls her fingers out of the holes, if she can.*
*ws* Like under the hell
*SNARL! Oh, GAIA it's a DRAGON! How did it even -fit- in there? The creature is snarling, unfolding into a greyish-red beast with wings, tentacles, and fangs the size of a human's forearm.*
(hill))
*winced at the roar* what the BLOODY HELL WAS THAT?!
[Roughly the size of a schoolbus.]
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(inits?))
[Evie gets one action before I call for 'em.]
::turns and looks back. Looks like Evie has to make her own whip.::
[Go for your action, Evie! Hehe. No need to roll on that one you declared, you can't miss. You're literally a foot from it.]
[Just post it up.]
*Evie slashes a clawed hand at the dragon sceaming in the Garou tongue* Mine to kill!!! *she ripped at its throat as hard and as fast as she could with her mouth trying to make it a scaley chew toy. (5x to hit, 7Agg damage)
*SPLURCH. The head comes off, as wounds appear all over the creature, its body savaged... as though... already dead? The head lands at Evie's feet, a bronze handle thudding to the ground with greyish leather snaking back into the muzzle. Slowly, the manifestation evaporates... leaving a multi-stranded whip at her feet. Most of the tips are fangs like the dragon's, while others are serrated bone bits, and a few others are simple leather.*
*Sky Chaser is actively shivering at the point, her usual grin diminished to a weak, wolfish rictus of shock.*
ws Thats...interesting.
*came rushing back, eager to get into the fight whatever that may be, but skidded to a halt as he noted it was already over*
*Evie reaches down and picks up the bronze handle. She holds it over her head and howls. After a few seconds she realizes herself and that she's calling every piece of evil for miles down on them... so... stops*
"Well placed blow. now I think we leave."
*just looks at Sarah, then Rory. She points at the chest* Dragon. *affirmatively* ::We need t get out of here before somethin nasty finds us. Mi mission is done::
i can get behind that... let's roll
Someone find us th exit. Back th way we came?
gs Up I'd say.
gs Anything that goes up...seems...logical.
*ROAR! Well, whatever's behind the bones down the path seems to realize that there's SOMETHING outside, and there's a shattering sound, followed by stomping. Sky Chaser is already heading back the way the group came from.*
*nodded, looped up the whip around herself to carry* Lets go. *she headed back for where they'd come in, or up, or whatever. Does an Indiana Jones, slowly turning around* I've got a very bad feelin about this.
follow sky chaser! *moving to follow his own advice*
*follows everyone else*
::Will follow with the crowd. sheathing the sword so not to poke someone accidentily::
Goes, but goes last watching to see if the Roar was followed by something chasing them. It was her gig, she'd defend the others.
*took off with thegroup
*Whatever it is is still stomping around behind the bones, getting closer, but there's enough time to get away before it reaches them, apparently. And up, past the 'elevator' shaft, and out the cave mouth the odd little wolf goes... before she skids to a stop.*
::Faster. Faster would be better:: *still bringing up the rear*
working on it! *following with the scared little wolf, helping the slower people up*

*Outside, the umbral sky gleams far overhead... and there are three paths that aren't covered in dark gravel and scree. One is seemingly made of gold, with coins and riches all along the way. Another has silver threads woven through the rock, the walls of the path, and chunks of silver ore scattered. The third is... rusted iron, much like the elevator floor that brought them down, with ferrous ore and jagged protrusions along the walls.*
:: I remember this... the three paths. From mi dream. I landed on a pile o gold. *she pointed at the gold coin path hoping she was right*
well... that was unexpected... *looking up at them* well, we'll trust you evie, lead on
gs Dreams....
(This user has entered Evie's Challenge) (IP = 74.129.33.240)
gs Interesting.
(wb)
(ty)
*And the pile of gold that Evie landed on is RIGHT THERE. Complete with Crinos-sized dent in the dubloons and Spanish gold. Wait, really? Wouldn't the shifting coins make the path more treacherous, so close to the scree-covered drops straight into the Maw?*
*she looked at the three paths, the pile of gold, trying to remember the dream.*
.
*she looked and then looked back at the direction they'd come, where there was probably something nasty coming.* Awright. Lets try th iron, as its most like how we got here.
gs OK
*follows the crowd*
::looks at the three paths and shrugs knowing that the path of silver would be painful and the path of gold usually leads to corruption.::
*finally, points at the Silver path* Gold is dangerous, Iron is scary. Silver is enlightening. Goes against th nature o Garou
*starts on the Silver path.* (I'll take my lumps if I''m wrong)
(i gotta call it a night, anyone mind if i drop out?)
*Something is indeed crashing around in the cave, but it's not making it fast enough. Setting off down the iron path... is relatively easy. It's a gentle slope upward, with plenty of handholds, but rust crunches underfoot and the ground smells odd. There are shadowy caves off to the sides, but even the largest of them that obviously have something in them seem to be ill-inclined to interfere.*
[GAH.]
[And then you pick the other one. :P]
(sorry, okay go with Iron, I made the enigmas roll after I posted)
(works for me, so it's cool?)
[G'night, Rory. From here, it's cool 'nuff to get home. I'm just gonna run people back.]
(night Rory)
(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 174.25.172.160)
*climbed up the iron path, helping anyone behind her as needed.*
((I need to go to bed myself))
[All righty. Night, Sarah. I'm gonna run Evie back to the sept. Heh.]
(night Sarah,thanks for the scene)
*An hour or two later, the group reaches the top of the path, which opens onto an obsidian plain, with occasional thunderheads rolling past. The only two questions that remain... what got eaten/killed in the tunnel, and will the Garou look back?*
*She followed her pack alpha*
(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 72.231.174.94)
*Yeah, Evie would look back from time to time. She didn't want something of this place following them out.*
*Oh, Gaia. *shudder* Definitely not a fun place to hang out... and it always seems like the darkness itself is following. Fortunately, the lifeless plain heads -away- from the giant pit.*
::Jermy, can ye find us a way home?::
"There is no use worrying about the what ifs. Focus on the goal, if anything gets in the way we deal with it.....I know I cant track a moon bridge, so I would need another point to fix on to lead us out of the Abyss."
*She lets out a soft huff as the darkness comes closer
:: How about straight away from th pit? Would that work? ::
Yer th' Theurge here.
"Has to be a person or a thing, I can try to have it locate mi car."
::Fine, brilliant, give it a try.:: *Evie kept an eye on their rear guard.*
*ws* why is it following us?
This whole place is tainted. Prolly wants t' eat us or somethin' *still kind of casually but clearly also concerned as she looked around.*
-ws- S-so... this was a challenge for you? *Sky Chaser finally perks up, looking at Evie as she lopes along with them.*
::Pulls out his rock on a string. and thinks some more." Wont work, while we are still in the abyss. We have to find our way out then we can locate a path home."
*looked at Sky Chaser* :: Aye lass. Havin' fun yet? *she grinned trying to be social*
*looked to Jeremy, nodded. She started looking around for anything that might be a clue how to get out.* Can ye see a spirit... anythin at all that might know. I don't want t' call down anythin that's not awready here. *she looked to each of the for ideas.*
"Stay the course we are bound to hit the border. The further from the taint we go the weaker the boundry becomes.
*The 'wolf's' grin widens, to disproportionate size.* Of course, luv. Good luck with your people. *The beastie shimmers just a bit, her body changing to a bit smaller, a bit more rangy... and she flips her tail slightly. What the... a coyote?!* Bye. *And she takes off at a flat run.*
Or get lost in an endless waste without a fixed point fer t' trav... *blinks at Coyote* Bloody hell... *shifts to Hispo* ::C'mon!:: Looks to the others but is definitely following the spirit.*
::Pockets his stone and starts to run after his Alpha and shifitnig down to hispo for speed.::
*A few yards later, the group is approaching forests... and it seems only a minute later, they're in swamplands. Soft, canine laughter echoes back toward them... as the many-tailed whip finally trips Evie, sending her to the grass.*
(This user is now known as Umbrascape)
*slides in the mud... on her face. She hits a grass clump and flips onto her bac, slides more* Boooollllllluuuuxxxxx!!!! *thud*
*She followed, running as quickly as she could*
::Wolf laugh::
*laying on her back, caked in bayou mud, muttering in wolf speech* ::bloody sneak:: *grumble grumble.*
*She was still trying to follow after the coyote*
*she looked up at the night sky (the umbra?)*
[Umbral!]
ws - "I think we're out of the abyss, now I can find a path home."
*Well, despite stars being so visible, and the air-spirits more visible, the pattern looks familiar. It's as though the Garou are fairly close to the sept.*
*she twisted at the waist trying to unstick herself. Her lower half was up against a tree and sticking up in the air before she righted herself. She got to her feet and looked for Coyote figuring she'd led them out and was long gone*
[Yee. It seems ya'll win. Evie. Gnosis roll.]
(permanent or remaining?)
(to bond the fetishI think)
(and diff 6?)
[Permanent, and yes.]
(( 10/26/10 01:35:03 -Bloody Mary- Evie D’Arque rolls 2 dice vs. diff of 6 to Gnosis: 1, 8 : Failed))
(frakking 1s)
*Focusing on the Hydra's Fangs, Evie finds herself staring at the spirit within, a vengeful beast of justice that growls back... seeming to reject a young Garou's attempt at dominance or placation.*
*Evie shifted Glabro and frowned. She looked at the spirits of air* Where we at Jermy? *her mind slightly elsewhere*
*she ran a wide loop and ended up returning to her packmates when she figured they were not running
"This area looks like it may be near the Caern. the swamp smells are similar."
I know that much, but which way? *grinned faintly*
"Alright give me a few minutes and I will find the way, unless you want to head back to the orphanage?"
I've got t' speak with Calliope, an wrestle with this spirit a bit. She's a fighter *glaring at the whip*
::Jeremy shifts to glabro and agains removes the rock for questing. and prepares himself focusing on the images of his SUV which would be parked outside the sept House.:: (had already rolled 4 suxx)
*She keeps looking at the whip with a snarl and pulling mud out of her fur*
::After several minutes as he recounts each ding and bang of his vehicle. the stone starts to swing in a paticular direction.:: "It's that way..." ::maintaing his concentration::
((guys I need to head off, sorry about the late start
[And it appears you guys made it back... a few minutes after walking. :)]
(thanks for hanging in this long. I thought you'd have to head out sooner, thanks for the scene Morgan :) )
(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 97.113.124.111)
*After a moment, Hydra's Fangs seems to relax, wrapping gently around Evie's waist and then settling in like a tamed cat.*
*Evie finally grinned as the spirit relented.* Now there we are. Piece o cake. Cake made with a bone monster, a dragon, a pit with somethin in it fer dinner an more Abyssal taint than a Garou can shake a stick at.
We should cleanse ourselves before entering the sept.
Aye... can ye do that? Talisman Seeker said she could do it.
I can
what do you think I did for several weeks with the death of te great devourere wyrm spirit.
*sits in the mud outside the Bawn*
I dunno, I was walkin in circles round it *grinned*
[Heheh. Shall we call it an evening, folks?]
Yeah we can I cleanse and then we enter the sept... ty for letting me tag on the end of things
(*nod* thanks Saph. Should I meed Calliope tomorrow or just assume we meet?)
and im logging out for now as well and rebooting this comp
Thank ye fer helpin. I don't think I could've done it alone an I'd still be tainted either way without ye.

[Oh, I'll run ya meeting her in the near future. Gotta get recognized publically, and all. :)]
