*The library was a stunning piece of architecture. The celing was made of crystal-clear glass that showed the setting sun against the city. The walls were formed of sleek modern bookshelves filled with books of every shape, size color and age. The ceiling was held up by flying arches of glittering steel that crested in a brilliantly simple chandelier. The floor was a marble and crystal checkerboard.*

Beata O'Ryan (Aug 23, 2011 9:31:59 PM)
*One of the checkerboard lanels had a large king-piece standing beside it, and it opened into a yawning black hole*

Beata O'Ryan (Aug 23, 2011 9:32:23 PM)
*she pointed* Down there leads to a tunnel... and that leads to The Hunger...

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 9:32:28 PM)
Ooooh! _Very_ nice. *looking at the interior with some considerable interest*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:32:38 PM)
*looks..for the rest of the chess pieces*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 9:32:45 PM)
*Imani took a moment to look around, as this was his first time in the library*Damn, dis' place almost make me wanna read some books.

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 9:32:46 PM)
*He got up, and wandered along after them.. telling Skandies to stay back in the other room.. If he didn't know if it'd eat people or not, he wasn't about to risk his buddy. Lagging a bit behind, but.. tagging along nonetheless*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 9:33:56 PM)
*Em lurks back by William, watching the rest with wide eyes*

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 9:34:18 PM)
The tunnel itself doesn't get really dark or really slippery ahead....well, there's really not a good way to describe it

Beata O'Ryan (Aug 23, 2011 9:34:32 PM)
The rest of the chess pieces dissappeared after the tunnel was opened. People originally played a game to get it open.

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 9:36:27 PM)
Sounds like a fun game. Did the players know it would open the tunnel?

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:36:32 PM)
*looking back at Beata's explanation* Tyler and Emma had mentioned something of the game. *nodding a bit and taking a look at the king that remained instead*

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 9:36:48 PM)
We weren't counting on it.

Beata O'Ryan (Aug 23, 2011 9:36:58 PM)
It was hoped

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 9:37:06 PM)
Distraction. He had it. Peering up towards the ceiling, and staring for a long moment. Almost unaware of what the rest of the people were saying.. "...wow..." Really soft.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 9:37:53 PM)
*He strolled over to the tunnel entrance and peered inside*We got light?

Beata O'Ryan (Aug 23, 2011 9:38:46 PM)
We got some lanterns. *she unhooked them from a shelf where they had been placed, probably from the last time someone had gone down there*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 9:39:36 PM)
I'll hold one, if you want.

Beata O'Ryan (Aug 23, 2011 9:40:17 PM)
*She handed one off to him*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:40:22 PM)
*moves to Beata and Imani, accepting a lantern and looking to the redcap* I'll hold the light, so you can have both hands free. *a wry smile for Imani, apparently he was serious about staying out of the 'cap's way*

Beata O'Ryan (Aug 23, 2011 9:41:15 PM)
(This user is now known as Secret Tunnel)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 9:41:23 PM)
A'ight den. Ya gon' wanna try talkin' first?

Secret Tunnel (Aug 23, 2011 9:41:40 PM)
*The tunnel was cool, muggy and very dark. The lanterns lit only a few feet ahead of them*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:42:08 PM)
Much as I deplore answering a question with a question..You think it might be a better alternative than potentially increasing your own hunger?

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 9:42:57 PM)
*Em frowns, and makes sure she's at the tail end of the group*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:43:14 PM)
*a light smile, by carrying the ight for Imani, he'd also put himself in the redcap's reach if such a thing should occur, of course*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 9:43:22 PM)
*Hlaine wound cord around the top of the lantern and extended it in front of himself a ways as he walked*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 9:43:31 PM)
He heard 'talking' blinked.. and looked down again, glancing between those assembled and straightening his shirt a little, and glancing to Em.. smiling faintly. "Hide behind me if you want."

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 9:43:40 PM)
*walks a bit back, in front of Emma and Will*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 9:43:46 PM)
I get mo' appetite, lot a folk round here ain't gon' be safe no mo' *He said it without any attitude, just clear and serious*We gotta put a beatin' on it, I try wit da claws*He moved along slowly, to keep in the light*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:44:22 PM)
Good to know. Then yes.. if it proves amenable to speech, I'll try that first. I doubt it'll be up to conversation when you're through with it.

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 9:44:34 PM)
This will sound brave, but if this goes south, I'm going to get as many of us hidden and out of here as possible.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 9:45:33 PM)
*She bobs her head* I can run like a cheetah.

Secret Tunnel (Aug 23, 2011 9:45:45 PM)
*The tunnel moved downwards at first, with shallow steps, before constricting to the point where one person could just squeeze through. The walls were yeilding - soft, slightly slimy*

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 9:46:09 PM)
So, Imani, Aleron, myself, Hlaine, Tyler, Will and then Emmaline? And Lady Beata where she wishes is the order?

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 9:46:24 PM)
*keeping back with Beata, he kept his lantern at the front, regardless of where he was in the order*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 9:47:00 PM)
*She puts her hand on the wall* Tyler, do NOT say it!

Secret Tunnel (Aug 23, 2011 9:47:14 PM)
I will stay to the back. *she said*

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 9:47:50 PM)
OK, I will. *Continues to walk down the tunnel, remembering they forgot lanterns last they were here*

Secret Tunnel (Aug 23, 2011 9:48:21 PM)
(kk, dex/ath rolls dif 8) *As you went forward, the way became more and more constricted, The bottom floor felt like walking in a waterbed covered in water baloons*

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 9:51:54 PM)
Well, so much for any kind of non-delusions of bravery.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 9:52:08 PM)
*Em whimpers, and struggles against the constricting walls*

Secret Tunnel (Aug 23, 2011 9:52:13 PM)
*Anyone with at least 1 succ is able to straggle through and land at the other end where the ground was more solid. A pair of burning red dots pierced the darkness*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 9:52:32 PM)
Crap! Fuck, fuck, fuck it, fuck all things. *schlocking his hooves up, trying to get out of it*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 9:52:54 PM)
*Imani drug himself along with a series of grunts and groans, trying not to stray too far from the lights behind him*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 9:53:09 PM)
*eventually he just gave up and kept his lantern going as far as it would play out*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 9:53:47 PM)
Will, who was somehow able to keep his balance easily.. pauses to glance back at Em, and offer the pooka a hand. He just smiled a bit in the low light.

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 9:54:01 PM)
*Tries to move and it well stuck.*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:54:01 PM)

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:55:43 PM)
Bly..anyone behind you? *asking the other noble quietly*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 9:56:11 PM)
*She strains to reach Will's hand, or to find any purchase to gain another inch of reach*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 9:56:19 PM)
*He turned to face the voice*First time fo' me, son. I heard someone was actin' like one a mine, so I came ta say what's up.

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 9:56:47 PM)
Five. *He replied, murmering to the other Gwydion.*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 9:57:17 PM)
This is my home. Feed me.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:57:34 PM)
I haven't visited you previously either. *glancing back to Bly* ... Ah I meant, who's the next and why haven't they come out?

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 9:57:50 PM)
Whatcha got a taste fo?

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 9:58:02 PM)
I think they got stuck. *He corrected himself and peered behind him up the tunnel.*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 9:58:13 PM)
*Hlaine waved*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 9:58:26 PM)
Will was busy trying to unstick the stuck people.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 9:58:45 PM)
((Is Hlaine's lantern out here on that string of his?))

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 9:59:42 PM)
*Hlaine can rell the lantern out to someone who is not stuck*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 9:59:49 PM)
Life.

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:00:00 PM)
(Yeah)

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:00:48 PM)
*will grab it and call back to Hlaine* Are you stuck, and if so, is t\his going to hold if I start pulling?

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:01:33 PM)
I am stuck, yeah, and no, it's flexible but the tensile strength isn't the greatest.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:02:15 PM)
Me too, brotha. See, thing is, ya gotta hunt if ya wan' eat. Can't jus' sit down here like some rubbertoothed child beggin' fo' scrap.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:02:17 PM)
Hrm. Anyone still free on the back end who could get some rope from the hold and bring it?

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:02:32 PM)
I am stuck. Feed me so I can be free.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:02:44 PM)
What I get if I do?

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:03:00 PM)
Just help pull me out. I can stay unstuck if I can get unstuck.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:03:19 PM)
You will not be consumed. You and I are like. You may consume with me.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:03:57 PM)
Dat ain't such a great bargain, yo. My ass already free ta eat what I please.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:04:21 PM)
You are small and limited. I can consume everything

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:04:43 PM)
So ya ass eat everythin' and what dat leave me?

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:05:09 PM)
You could grow. I can show you.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:05:15 PM)
Free me. Feed me.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:05:29 PM)
I think gettin' rope back here might be a minor challenge.... just... gimme a second...

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:05:33 PM)
I'll be right back. *He said to Gideon and trudged up to try and help free Tyler. (I think that's who's next?)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:05:40 PM)
Oh yeah? How big is you? Come on ova and show me what I gots ta look foward ta.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:05:47 PM)
I'm not entirely certain -I- can remain unstuck long enough to .. *and Bly heads up*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:07:35 PM)
(kk, those stuck - can be pulled free with cumulative 8 or more successes on str/ath dif 6 if being pulled from the outside - or 20+ succ on str/ath if trying to free yourself. You find the more you struggle the mroe the thing constricts, but if you relax completely you start falling down...)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:08:07 PM)
*it gnashed its teeth in reply to Imani and yawned open its mouth, wider than the tunnel*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:08:30 PM)
*Hlaine would start trying to free himself immediately, unwilling to sit like a buttered duck*

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:08:54 PM)
(3 suxx to help Tyler to start)

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:09:05 PM)
Will.. since he wasn't stuck, was trying to free Emma.. who was last in line? (2sx)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:09:29 PM)
Damn, son*He looked back at the others and scratched his chin. Morality of a Redcap....did it even exist, and would it hold out if it did?*

Tyler Smith (Aug 23, 2011 10:10:01 PM)
(I've gotta poof)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:10:07 PM)
(It is cumulative so you may keep rolling until you fail - when you have to start from zero again or botch - meaning something bad happens) (Peace Tyler!)

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:10:10 PM)
*Em tries to work with William, and not struggle -too- much against the walls so it doesn't hold on so tight - maybe that would help?*

*Hlaine had almost worked his way out, then hit a pocket of something and his hoof sank back in, causing a round of fresh curses*

(Can my suxx go to Hlaine with Tyler poofing instead?)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:11:31 PM)

No room to grow here. Must be free.

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:12:47 PM)
"I got ya.." Quietly, trying carefully to pull emma free from where she was stuck, huffing as she slipped back a little. (3sxx this time, whoops on the double roll.)

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:13:25 PM)
(I managed to spam the dice roller, myself...other people need to use it more quickly. *laughs*)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:13:49 PM)
Guess I can't fault ya ass fo' never learnin' how ta negotiate*He shook his head and looked to Gideon*Whatcha think?

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:14:01 PM)
*She grabs at his hand with both of hers* This reminds me of a dream I once had after eatin' too much jello....

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:14:36 PM)
(3, 2, 1, 2, extra help for Hlaine then.) *He grunted, but otherwise freed the satyr, moving back down behind Gideon.*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:14:40 PM)
(Do remember, Hlaine that is doesn;t matter how fast you can roll, each roll = 1 turn and each turn takes time)

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:15:04 PM)
*brings the light to bear so they can get a look at the gape-mawed thing* I'm wondering if being eaten isn't the way out of this thing. Or did the entry remind you of a throat as well?

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:15:21 PM)
*looking to Imani*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:15:34 PM)
(Right, I figured I'd roll it all and have that as a baseline. However, with Eugene's help...it makes it -much- faster)

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:16:10 PM)
(3 more sxx on the next roll then.. which as long as em didn't fail again..)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:16:14 PM)
*He shrugged*Guess it could be like dat.

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:16:24 PM)
(Notably because that hits target successes before the failure *high fives Eugene*)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:16:33 PM)
*It gnashed it's teeth again, advancing very slowly*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:17:43 PM)
*With considerable assistance from the sidhe, who was immediately accorded a mental measure of respect, Hlaine could drag himself out of there without hitting the pocket-o-murk*

((Wait - 8 from outside plus 20 from Em? I thought it was either or...))

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:18:26 PM)
Not sure I'm partial to chewing though. Let's see if there's another exit first. *indicating with a toss of his head the direction he intends to take the light..and starts moving*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:18:38 PM)
(Either/or, either way she is free)

"There... What were we after, rope? " He looks the other way.. to start trying to help whomever else was still stuck.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:21:39 PM)
*Imani could feel a slight breeze by the gap where the teeth were, so there was some way out. Emmaline could find a small gap by the shallow stairs. Eugene could tell that there was some sort of passage or way to fall through the muck*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:22:56 PM)
*He poked Gideon in the ribs and pointed to the breezy spot*Got a way, but it ain't gon' be an easy one.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:23:06 PM)
*Everyone looked unstuck for now*

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:23:07 PM)
If we want to swim through whatever this is, there might be a way. *He pointed at the muck, wrinkling his nose. It was obviously not his first choice.*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:24:06 PM)
Well, I'm already caked to the shins. I can inspect if you want.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:24:06 PM)
Oh, hey... *She heads over to the gap, poking at it, and trying to get a feel for its size*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:24:39 PM)
*looking to Imani..and then Bly at the options* Doesn't seem either is going to be easy.. Um Hlaine. If we're in a stomach, as I suspect.. be careful that any liquid isn't acidic..

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:24:56 PM)
*Very small, about the width of an Oreo. Classic.*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:25:12 PM)
He followed after Emma then, scooting back a little at a time. "Did you find something?" He asks her.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:25:55 PM)
*The Hunger gnashed his teeth again, moving slowly forward one more time. It was when it moved that Imani could see the gaps*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:26:20 PM)
Yo, I best not be in no stomach. I eat things, not da otha way round*He let out a snarl in the Hunger's direction*

Mmm... If I were an ant pooka, maybe...

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:26:46 PM)
You be in the dark. *Gnash, gnash*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:27:07 PM)
Even if it is, I'm the best choice to trailblaze anyway, right?

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:27:18 PM)
I have a practice blade.. It's the next best thing.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:27:28 PM)
Don't make me come ova there and punch dem teeth out.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:27:56 PM)
Come. Come closer.

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:27:58 PM)
*he waved the lantern-on-a-string around a bit* And I've got a dagger that... *looking at Beata, or wherever she was, that general direction* I still haven't been told to give back, which is fortunate, I guess.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:28:47 PM)
*The claws slid out from his gloves, but he remained where there was light*

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:29:37 PM)
Poke the side where Emmaline is. See if it opens up more being agitated?

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:30:27 PM)
*The Hunger edged forward again*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:30:52 PM)
*draws the practice blade and comes around the side when the Hunger moves forward a bit, prodding at the gap*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:31:01 PM)
*It could be pried it bit, it would wriggle painfully back into place*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:31:28 PM)
*But could be edged open to about 9 inches. A slim person could slip through*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:31:49 PM)
*He circled around with the Hunger, keeping it interested while Gideon poked around*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:32:03 PM)
He rifled in his pocket, pulled out his pocket knife, just.. waiting. The others knew what to do.. and this.. well he had to admit it was the weirdest trip to the library he'd ever been on.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:32:10 PM)
You smell good. *It whuffled as it moved*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:32:22 PM)
Um. You know... *she uses her hands to measure the gap, and then looks around* Where's a phone booth when you need it?

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:32:37 PM)
I take dat as a compliment, specially afta what we was doing yestaday.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:32:49 PM)
*a headshake when it won't open further* Only that far..and no more.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:33:33 PM)
I'm not Wonder Woman, you know... but... *She bites on her lower lip, trying to figure out how to make this work*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:33:43 PM)
We can stuff people through if we need to. Won't be comfortable, though.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:33:48 PM)
You smell like life. And death.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:34:01 PM)
Well, a rat could fit through. Or a cat. Or a raccoon...

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:34:10 PM)
Want to try, Emma?

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:34:20 PM)
Partial victory. *He nodded to Gideon and looked at the Hunger.* Emma, go back up the tunnel, just be careful..

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:34:22 PM)
*She would have to wriggle through on her belly... or shapeshift*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:34:35 PM)
Got a good nose on ya, brotha.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:34:40 PM)
We don't need a rope, but is there something else I should get?

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:36:26 PM)
My nose tells me much.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:36:58 PM)
What else it tell ya?*He kept on the move, not expecting something this hungry to talk forever*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:37:04 PM)
See if you can find a way to open up the door?

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:37:12 PM)
Whichever. Hurry.

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:37:24 PM)
Come back with your tail and whiskers intact. We won't watch you go.. *He frowned.* It couldn't be nice enough and be like an alligator's mouth, could it? Then we could keep it shut so much easier.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:37:37 PM)
Ok. But... *she gestures with her hand, making a little spinning motion* I'm a lady.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:37:40 PM)
It says you hunger. It says you can aid me, in one way or other *Moving forward again*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:38:17 PM)
Will eyed the thing, and moved away from it a little. Imani seemed to be keeping it's attention fairly well, at least.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:38:21 PM)
*turns his head away so he can't see Emma, maintaining his pressure on the practice blade to keep the exit wedged open*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:38:29 PM)
*Hlaine turned around*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:38:49 PM)
*Emma nervously eyes the others, waiting for some privacy*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:39:43 PM)
Oh I do. I'm da real shit, old soul a hunger from ages back. Ya gon' try me? Ya welcome ta give it a go.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:39:47 PM)
*Her best bet was to go up to the library... The Hunger didn;t look like it was going to look away*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:39:57 PM)
You offer?

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:40:36 PM)
Ain't free. Ya come fo' dis' we gon' have an eatin' contest.

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:40:38 PM)
*She sighs, and gets down on her belly to scoot into the tunnel - maybe she can shift once she's in there*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:41:30 PM)
You eat me, I eat you?

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:41:40 PM)
(dex/ath dif 6 Emma)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:42:40 PM)
One way or da otha. You in our way, and I see ya ain't gon' move. Dis' place don't belong ta yo ass, not no mo' *He was still maintaining his distance as best he could*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 10:43:21 PM)
((2 suxx))

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:43:30 PM)
This was my place long before you were here.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:43:39 PM)
*Emma slithered through, her feet dissappearing*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:44:17 PM)
Snooze ya lose, yo*He pointed upward*Unda new management.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:44:46 PM)
fah. Children. I will eat them all.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:45:16 PM)
Don't get me wrong. If it was up ta me, I'd feed ya a few a the ones dat piss me off.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:45:38 PM)
then bring them here

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:46:21 PM)
Luckily it isn't up to you. *He mused quietly, still watching the Hunger.*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:46:51 PM)
Bring them here!

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:46:55 PM)
*He motioned toward Gideon and Eugene*See? Da long ears ain't gon' let it happen. Ya gotta go through dem first.

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:47:13 PM)
"Huh... Maybe you guys are right.. feeding t his thing.. not so good an idea." A frown.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:47:42 PM)
Then I will feast upon thier bodies and souls. *Roaring a gutteral groan, slinking forward*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:47:55 PM)
*a chuckle at Imani's comment* Why..thank you Ever so..

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:48:29 PM)
*He winked at Gideon, hoping his baiting would give him a clear shot at this thing as it went for someone else*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:49:19 PM)
Will slipped out of it's way.. uncertain for a moment.

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:49:55 PM)
(k, Imani: dex/stealth dif 8 to get around it as it fills up most of the tunnel. You need 2 or mroe successes to be successful)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:50:14 PM)
(Wp on this for sure)

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:50:25 PM)
Move to the side, open the gap? *He said quietly to Gideon as he saw Imani, trying to coordinate.*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:50:29 PM)
(Everyone who is not Imani: per/alert dif 6)

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 10:51:35 PM)
(1 success)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:51:38 PM)
(4)*Imani was on the move, albeit slowly. All huge creatures had blind spots, it was all about tricking them into putting you in one and riding it out*

*Eugene was so focused on something else, as imani moved, he stumbled...* (Eugene, roll me dex/dodge dif 6)

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:54:51 PM)
A blink.. and the Kinian moved over that way, seeing the hand, and put his hand on it.. wondering if it was the pooka.

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 10:56:10 PM)
*calls up his glamour as if he were going to cast something, trying to be an appealing target where he keeps the doorway wedged open*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:57:02 PM)
*Something poked William's hand, as if it was poking through a blanket or sheet*

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 10:57:33 PM)
(2 sux)

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 10:58:14 PM)
A grunt, and.. well he did the most logical thing for him to do.. Take that pocketknife and see if he could cut through the wall to make them all a doorway. (obviously not sticking said hand.)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:58:52 PM)
*The hunger lurched forward, teeth snapping at eugene, it caught the back of his jacket and tore it, but did not hit his flesh* (Imani, you may take 1 turn's worth of action as a surprise round, please delcare, describe and roll. T.H. does not dodge)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:59:00 PM)
(William: Chimerical or real knife?)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 10:59:41 PM)
(Giving it the claws, one full pool attack)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 10:59:45 PM)
(kk)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 11:00:17 PM)
*The knife did not pierce the skin, but the whole thing recoiled in a rolling way, the walls themselves giving a gutteral scream*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 11:01:05 PM)
(5 to hit/4CL)*When it snapped at Eugene he made his move. Leaping in from its blindspot he raked both sets of claws along the Hunger with a wide grin*

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 11:01:48 PM)
*He snarled and stumbled a bit as his jacket was ripped, quickly sliding out of his jacket once he got the chance.*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 11:01:54 PM)
Time for fighting, then. *pulling out the dagger*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 11:02:25 PM)
*The hunger howled and recoiled. As it moved - suddenly much faster than the slow crawl it had displayed, a burningly bright shaft of light split the tunnel as it opened around the chimera*

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 11:02:49 PM)
*Emma saw a crack form in the black fog and she could see Imani's form*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:03:23 PM)
Hey! Hey, wait! It's Narnia in here!

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 11:04:28 PM)
(alright, anyone who wants free escape, can slip through the crack - please post that now. If you want to join the fray, please post your inits)

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 11:05:34 PM)
((The crack I'm holding open is wide enough for others to get through now?))

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 11:16:31 PM)

(Holy feth, I wish I had a specialty)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 11:19:30 PM)

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 11:19:48 PM)
(Nope, used my action to attack)

The Hunger (Aug 23, 2011 11:20:57 PM)

*em gets up, gingerly prodding the smog again - looking to see if she can still see her way out to the "real" world*

*using a handkerchief to try and clean the practice weapon, he sheathes it and gives a rather wry smile* Shall we join the rest then? *moving toward the exit*

J-me (Aug 23, 2011 11:46:20 PM)
*The smog could be pulled and prodded to find the steps heading upwards*

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 11:46:36 PM)
Why don't we do the whole subliminal message thing and have her dream of something like key lime pie?

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:48:13 PM)
*She pokes her head out through* I found Waldo. So... what do we do with her? Can we get th'door again?

J-me (Aug 23, 2011 11:48:40 PM)
*you could push through* *Killadore in her tree was unforzen, but appeared to be in a coma or sleeping*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 11:48:52 PM)
Again he ponders a lullibye.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 11:49:06 PM)
*He followed after Gideon with a smirk*Pest control ain't so bad.

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 11:49:35 PM)
We shall. *He walked through the fog, looking up at the lady. How was her hand that got mangled?*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 11:49:52 PM)
*he brings the lantern with as they walk in and rejoin the rest of the group* ANything interesting on this side?

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 11:50:00 PM)
All hands accounted for?

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:50:52 PM)
She's napping. *She frowns* Should we let her sleep in?

J-me (Aug 23, 2011 11:51:05 PM)
*the lands looked like they were struggling to burst into spring/summer, but couldn't*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:51:46 PM)
I mean, th'lights are all low so she can sleep in here... no birdies singin' t'wake her...

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 11:51:49 PM)
Perhaps the lady needs to wake from her madness for the 'scape to live? *He asked, looking around, then back up at her.*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:52:07 PM)
*she points at Gino, nodding*

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 11:52:23 PM)
*Imani glanced around before shaking his head*Yo, I'm too pumped from dat scrape ta be near dis' bitch.

Hlaine Stohmson (Aug 23, 2011 11:53:12 PM)
(Gotta head out for a bit)

*and will search out the stairs likewise to climb up toward the Countess*

J-me (Aug 23, 2011 11:54:59 PM)
*Killadore didn't stir, save her eyelids fluttering, but the fog did. You could head up towards her perch, coming face to face with the slumbers sidhe. She was ethereally pale*

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:55:25 PM)
*She shrugs, and climbs up - maybe closer, she could get a better chance to kenn her than from below*

Eugene Gibson (Aug 23, 2011 11:55:59 PM)
*He followed Gideon up, minding his step.* Are we waking her here or would it be better from the ground?

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 11:56:06 PM)
*Imani was content to keep away from the Countess, but that didn't stop him from watching at ground level and licking his lips*

William Warin (Aug 23, 2011 11:56:09 PM)
Will stood up, but didn't move to climb, peering up into the tree.. Hmm.

Imani Shields (Aug 23, 2011 11:56:25 PM)
(brb)

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:56:37 PM)
Should we wake her up -in here- at all?

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 11:56:43 PM)
I'm going to try and wake her. Nicely, if it's possible. Less so, if not. *the memory of this woman's attempt to kill them all clearly etched in his mind* Excellency, we require an audience. *directing his words sternly to the sleumbering woman*

Gideon Ryder (Aug 23, 2011 11:56:56 PM)
((slumbering even))

Emmaline Dupre (Aug 23, 2011 11:57:15 PM)
An' there's that COunt, I mean, I bet he'd be thrilled t'meet her...
