*to Atvet after a solid handshake with nothing to prove* A good one? I'm partial, I admit, but I'm curious what would inspire that sentiment.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:21:29 PM)
*Imani ran from the forge to catch up with the rest. He dashed right up to Bly and pointed to his collar free neck*Yo, dat acid works, son. Get ya ass down ta da forge!

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:21:56 PM)
*Emma trails after the group, biting on her lower lip*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:22:25 PM)
*As Imani's collar was broken, Tristan headed back towards the trod, wiith Marie Elise following a few paces behind* Now, we have traced Finnegan to a mansion on the far north side of Red Dawn, it is lodged in the dreaming.

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:22:45 PM)
And we expect trouble. Lots o' trouble. *Marie-Elise muttered*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:23:00 PM)
"Had an uncle with that name." He offered the same, very short lived smile he had a moment before. "He was a good fellow, took me fishing a few times when I was a lad."

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:23:18 PM)
I'm happy for you. I will if we have no other alternative. *He pat Imani on the shoulder, daring the mouth near it with a shiny hand. He managed to half-smile.*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:23:59 PM)
*Etienne released Bly's arm gently then. Letting him settle himself again. "Are we expecting trouble out of Red Dawn directly?

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:24:40 PM)
Ah, glad to hear it. *a sidelong glance at Bly and a slight headshake before he smiles to Imani* Good to have you free again.

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:25:02 PM)
No, but Papa's scouts say there be chimerical trouble a-plenty at de mansion. Plague rats, noctinista, a whole hoard of insane chimera

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:25:11 PM)
Ya really gon' wear dat thing a second longer when we got a way out? Ya fuckin' crazy*He slapped the hand off his shoulder and nodded to Aleron*Damn glad ta be.

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:25:54 PM)
Oh. Rats? Oh....

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:26:26 PM)
*He smirked at Emma*We gon' tear em up dis time, snackfood.

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:26:27 PM)
He glanced back to the group, standing nearby and listening. Glad he'd worn his armor. Muttering lightly "Guess I can skip practice today."

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:26:42 PM)
*He pursed his lips but said nothing, following the Baron and Baroness.*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:26:43 PM)
*a terse nod at Imani's sentiment, agreeking wholeheartedly*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:26:50 PM)
((*agreeing))

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:27:27 PM)
*She frowned. "It sounds as though we will have quite a fight then.. is there anyway to draw Finnegan out once we get close?"

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:27:58 PM)
We believe that Finnegan is very unhinged. Bedlam is also a danger.

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:28:54 PM)
I -can- help, right? *She looks between the sidhe, her tone less than certain*

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:29:35 PM)
You're helping right now, Emmaline. *He said sincerely.*

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:30:47 PM)
Okay...

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:31:07 PM)
"You may have to duck and cover your eyes at times though Emma.." She knew she wasn't good with killing.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:31:15 PM)
*While they walked and talked, the cap dug through his pockets. Eventually he came up with a handful of serpent scales, which he began biting into smaller pieces*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:31:56 PM)
*Tristan walked past the library and towards the uppermost floor of the freehold. The walls melted away into clear shimmering glass* I will be opening the trod, Papa Bernard will meet you in Red Dawn, to lead you to the mansion. He has more intelligence on how to get in

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:32:47 PM)
Are there any questions before you go?

((I missed anything after my last. Didn't realize my connection dropped me))

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:34:00 PM)
He looked around the hold as he followed along. It would be an interesting first visit at least. "If we aren't able to capture Finnegan?" Best to go in knowing exactly what results were being looked for.

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:34:34 PM)
*Etienne took a deep breath thinking and then shook her head. "He carries a locket, if we can't capture him we need to at least aquire that locket.."

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:34:45 PM)
Kill him. *tristan said with resolve* He's already dead.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:34:52 PM)
*Once the scales had been crunched up, he mixed them with a tin of chewing tobacco and popped the mixture in his mouth*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:35:14 PM)
And if he has been transplanted into his sister's body, sadly her soul would have been destroyed in the transfer.

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:35:36 PM)
*She nodded to Tristan.

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:35:39 PM)
As you wish, my lord. *Bly said to Tristan, nodding once. His expression was dark.*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:36:15 PM)
Atvet nodded seriously to the others. His expression still very neutral. Accepting of what he'd been ordered.

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:36:51 PM)
In that case..might the armory spare a weapon? *to the Baron*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:37:05 PM)
"Can you use a short sword Aleron?"

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:37:23 PM)
If you can bring him alive, do it, but if not, you have my order. *Tristan gave a slim nod* There is one or two from Dame Tendris.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:37:24 PM)
*Glamour whisked around the cap as he chewed the mixture, settling into his stone skin after a moment*

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:37:50 PM)
Kill him? But... the sister? She... *The pooka frowns* She's not... not...

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:38:02 PM)
*despite the blade hanging at his side* As well as anything else. *nodding to Eitenne as he knots a red ribbon on the bracelet on his right wrist*

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:38:09 PM)
She's gone already, Emmaline. Think zombies. *He said to her.*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:38:20 PM)
If he leaves her body, you have a soulless shell, chile *Marie-elise murmured to Emmaline*

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:38:21 PM)
But how do you -know- that?

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:38:45 PM)
Because I knwo de ritual. I non ever do it, but I know it. And I know why it be banned. *she said quietly*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:39:10 PM)
You trust Maman Marie on this, please

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:39:37 PM)
*She took off one of the paired short swords she was wearing and offered it to Aleron.

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:40:27 PM)
*She bites on her lower lip and shakes her head. The pooka folds her arms. tightly around her torso - no longer walking* I... but you d-d-don't know, not know-know, I don't know if a book... I... *A faint whine, her ears pinning back*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:40:31 PM)
*accepting it, he nods to her* Thank you Etienne.

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:40:36 PM)
"Maybe you should wait here Emma.." Hearing the conversation she looked back at Emma. "You can make sure there's a place for us to rest when we return?"

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:42:32 PM)
*tristan stepped forward, leaving Marie-Elise to discuss with the pooka. He balled up a chunk of fire about the size of a baseball between his hands and touched the crystalline archway of the trod. It burst into flame and showed the silver path and an expanse of bridges beyond* First bridge goes to the duchy.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:43:54 PM)
Oh yeah, time fo' da second part a my revenge*He slapped his face a few times, psyching up for the trip and the eventual fighting*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:44:02 PM)
Atvet moved forward, sticking of course to the silver path and the directions given. Not one for much hesitation.

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:44:14 PM)
*she moved up closer to the trod and looked back at Tristan, nodding to him before she moved through to the trod to the bridges beyond.

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:44:41 PM)
*Emma stays rooted on the spot, frozen by indecision*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:45:09 PM)
Heading through the trod brought you to a platform... there was a several hundred foot break between the platform and the bridges. It appeared you were floating in midair - so high that you can not see the ground. If Atvet was the first through the trod, he might stop before he fell off...*

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 10:45:58 PM)
*Annnnnnnd nora scoots in just in time to sneak in with the group* oooh, something fascinating this way comes?

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:46:12 PM)
Thank you Baron. *stepping in immediately after Atvet in case someone has to catch the man*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:46:14 PM)
*As Etienne came through she did reach to catch Atvet. "Wait.. we'll show you how to work the bridges." Not wanting to see a house mate slip just yet.*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:46:31 PM)
Looking to take down Dane Finnegan, Nora. Just heading out, if you're heading with.

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:46:57 PM)
He did give pause, smiling lightly to Etienne as she helps. "It does seem as if it would be unpleasant."

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 10:47:10 PM)
Why not - the center cannot hold

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:47:34 PM)
*there was a section off the front with a warm updraft... the faster you took off the platform, the faster it carried you towards whatever bridge you concentrated on. However a test of dropping something off the sides of the platform said that gravity was in full force there*

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:47:44 PM)
Inigo, promise you'll do your best to... not.... yes?

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:47:44 PM)
*Imani headed through the trod and rolled his neck. He aimed at the first bridge and sprinted down the platform, jumping off with a shout*Wooooo!

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:48:41 PM)
"Interesting." He commented, after having dropped a pebble, then watched the redcaps sprint and leap off the end of the platform.

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:49:00 PM)
*She smild as she watched Imani and pointed him out as he went running. "Watch him.. you have to concentrate on the bridge you want to use, the faster you run off of here, the faster you'll reach the other side.. just keep your mind on the first bridge."

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:49:06 PM)
*the updraft carried Imani towards the bridges. There seemed to be a corridor of effect for it*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:49:07 PM)
*looking back to Emma* I will only do what must be done, Emma. I've no love of murder. Please..stay home for this one.

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 10:49:46 PM)
Wee! *And Nora dashed for the trod and jumped off, arms spread out and concentrated on the bridge across* I'm FLYING

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:50:10 PM)
*She nods to Aleron, and lingers to watch the rest of the group head through the trod*

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:50:13 PM)
*Imani loved coming out this way. It was by far his favorite way to travel. When he touched down on the bridge, he cleared the landing zone and waiting for the others*

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:50:46 PM)
Emmaline, thank you. *He said to the pooka and waited for Etienne and Atvet to jump before he followed.*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:50:59 PM)
*She took off running then headed for the first bridge.*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:51:18 PM)
*a light smile for the pooka before he follows Etienne, focused on the first bridge as well*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:51:21 PM)
He nodded and ran and leapt himself at a safe interval after Etienne. Following the rest toward the appropriate bridge.

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:51:45 PM)
*it was a bit like flying, supported on a chimerical updraft, floating like the fires that fueled Heart of Fire*

Tristan / Marie-Elise (Oct 10, 2011 10:51:56 PM)
(This user is now known as J-me)

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:52:43 PM)
He landed after a long moment, smiling a bit, though not outwardly agreeing that it was in fact fun.

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:53:31 PM)
*He took a running leap and focused on the bridge.*

Emmaline Dupre (Oct 10, 2011 10:53:33 PM)
*Em retreats*

*The bridge led them to the silver path and a very short, direct trip to the duchy seat of Red Dawn. It was an expansive chimerical city, overlaying the mundane Baton Rogue, you could see both at once. The duchy seat stood like a massive glowing palace above the whole landscape, but chimerical dwellings dotted the entire land and the path split to seveal main roads, some to the dingy dirty chimerical alleys, some to shimmering noble paths. Papa Bernard was waiting for them at a waypost just before the city, the tall grump eshu was smoking a cigar*

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 10:54:21 PM)
Hey Paparazzi

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:55:00 PM)
*he nods to the Eshu* Evening, Papa. *according the Eshu hsi preferred title, however odd it felt to say*

(This user is now known as Papa Bernard)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 10:55:19 PM)
Greets. I be taking you to de mansion.

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 10:55:36 PM)
He stuck with a polite nod.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:56:02 PM)
Sup, son*He nodded to Bernard, but was right back to checking out the surroundings. He'd been out this way before, but then things did change out here often enough*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 10:56:11 PM)
You've been watching the place, is there any particular weakness in the gathered chimera's defense?

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 10:57:07 PM)
Awesome. *She whistles*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 10:57:12 PM)
*Et just strung her bow and held it easily at her side for the moment, a hello nodded to Papa as well.*

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 10:57:46 PM)
Now, as we go, I tell you de intel, non? Basement and firt floor intersect de mundane. Mundane was once a mansion, but it be plowed down, and now de foundation is used for a bank. The chimerical mansion still sands, a bit tainted since de fire. Mundanely you can slip in if you get past de security. Chimerically you can slip easiest into de graveyard, there is a passage to de basement but we think it be packed with noctinista.

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 10:58:23 PM)
Or you could try climbing up de back wall - non easy, but could get past a hoard of chimerical rats and such

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 10:58:36 PM)
Sharp rocks and smashed bones though for those who non have steady feet

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 10:58:58 PM)
*Bly rolled his shoulders at the mention of rats.* I'd rather avoid the rats, personally. Dying once is enough.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 10:59:33 PM)
I wanna tear dem three big rats ta pieces, but I ain't tryin' ta go inta another swarm.

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:01:17 PM)
*walking along with the group and listening intently*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:01:43 PM)
"So our choices are mundane bank security, noctinista, or a serious climb and rats?"

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:02:09 PM)
Choices choices choices

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:02:27 PM)
He's looking around as they go, also listening but trying to pick up on all the details he can. It being his first trip through tihs area. "I thought the climb was to avoid the rats..."

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:02:51 PM)
It'd get us past the rats.

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:03:38 PM)
"I'm up for the attempt if everyone else is."

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:04:47 PM)
I saw always avoid Nihm

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:04:49 PM)
"Ah.." She thought about it and then nodded. "Dangerous but it may be worth the attempt. I may be able to help those who are not the best at climbing by leaning fate more in their direction.."

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:05:26 PM)
Been plenty a climbin' since dis whole mess began. Ain't worried bout a little mo'

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:05:47 PM)
*his expression tightens* I am wiling to try it as well.

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:06:46 PM)
Did we bring our adventuring rock climbing kits?

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:07:35 PM)
"Must have left it in my other haversack." He commented lightly, tone dry, expression back to neutral.

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:07:47 PM)
I did not, I'll make sure to ask Chloe and Lior about those when we meet again.

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:08:08 PM)
*his tone rueful*

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:08:15 PM)
....well, everyone can just tie their shoe laces together, as I do a reverse Rapunzel

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:08:30 PM)
We climbing? If so we turn off here *he gestured to a sloping portion of the silver path*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:08:54 PM)
"It seems so."

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:09:04 PM)
I believe that's our direction, Papa Bernard. *He said with a nod.* Thank you for being our guide.

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:09:59 PM)
*She nods and whistles* We should have all ordered our Batman Utility belts from Skymall

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:13:41 PM)
*a nod to Bly* You non go out here without an eshu. Come. *the path led steeply downward, past large rocks and jagged outcroppings. It headed down to a fast-running vividly navy blue river. Papa led them off the path and along the bank, finally stopping at a cliff and pointing upwards. 140 feet up you could see a dimly lit mansion* There

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:14:46 PM)
*looking UP.. I don't think I would have called this..a wall. *quietly*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:14:51 PM)
One brow raised slightly, taking in the long wall and scanning it for a good path to take.

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:05 PM)
Damn shame we ain't go no honey lovin' cave bats dis time*He cracked his knuckles and rolled his shoulders, still chewing on his mix of tobacco and scales*

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:22 PM)
*There was no path, though there were handholdss of the rock climbing variety*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:31 PM)
*Looking up, Etienne swallowed. "Would anyone like me to slant fate in their direction?"

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:32 PM)
*He actually snickered a little at that.* Imani.. we need to take a chimerical camera with us on these expeditions.

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:37 PM)
(meant a good climbing path - my mistake)

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:46 PM)
*looking back to Etienne* ..Please.

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:51 PM)
weeellllll..............

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:15:56 PM)
*He smiled at Etienne*I take ya up on dat if ya please.

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:16:11 PM)
Fate needs to hug me.

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:16:27 PM)
*She said to Etienne*...in that totally platonic "we're friends" way

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:16:57 PM)
*He nodded to Eugene*I'd get me one if I didn't burn up a buncha dross fightin' Samford's bitch ass.

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:17:18 PM)
He nodded to his house mate, then returned to scanning for a good 'map' up the wall. "Not quite one of the mall wall climbs with the colorful paths."

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:18:38 PM)
"Hmm.." She dug around in her pocket for those coins that she liked to use for this particular effect. "Very well. Who is first?"

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:18:54 PM)
(ok. free climbing (no tools) is dex/ath dif 8. with tools but no rope is dif 7. With rope only is dif 6. With tools and rope is dif 5. You need to get a total of 14 successes (1 success per 10 feet) cumulative to get to the top. There is no limit to how many times you can roll - BUT if you fail or botch a roll stop and post where you got when you failed or botched.)

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:19:24 PM)
(would sure footed as a spec work for this?)

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:19:28 PM)
It's likely going to take me longest to climb. *acknowledging with only slight bitterness, as he approaches Etienne*

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:19:39 PM)
(Do claws count as a tool?)

*She bounced the coins in her hand. "Don't be surprised if you beat me up Aleron." She smiled at him. "Height is daunting but our task will not be stopped, let fate guide the climbing hand." The coins were tossed up then so they showered down around Aleron into the sand around him.*

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:21:47 PM)
(sure footed works as a spec. claws will work as tools)

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:22:10 PM)
*she paused and looked about* Excuse me. I am going to cheat. Someone...carry my clothes...

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:22:36 PM)
*He waited off to the side as Etienne did her thing for Aleron*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:22:53 PM)
*dips his head and watches the ground as the coins rain down, not wanting a penny in the eye*

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:24:14 PM)
*And she would dash around a rock......and pop back out a moment later, cawing like her raven self* (glamour spent)

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:24:26 PM)
*Bly started his climb up, letting the others be cantripped for luck. He had a good start, but moved slowly and consistently until almost halfway there. (Have 6 suxx, failed on 7th roll)*

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:25:50 PM)
*And ....Rook would put herself in line...after all, there were shinies involved. Coins, Sidhe, glamour, luck. All Shiny!*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:26:00 PM)
He waited to be 'lucked' while still scanning for a good path to take.

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:26:18 PM)
*Eugene hit a slippery spot on the climb and slid downwards about half of the way he had come. The rocks slicing his hands and arms as he finally caught himself again* (Bly, soak me 3 ChimL and start at 3succ, you may keep rolling or wait for help)

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:26:39 PM)
Thank you Etienne. *sincerely, eyeing the wall again*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:27:09 PM)
(Aleron - 2 suxx)

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:27:18 PM)
*He slid the claws in and out of his gloves while he waited, studying the way up as well*

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:28:50 PM)
(you may spend FiiF/FiF succ on individual rolls to lower difficulty. They do not apply to all rolls, you may spend as many as you like to a minimum of dif 4 at any time)

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:28:51 PM)
(soaked 1, took 2, at Hurt-1) *He cursed as he slid, snarling a bit in pain. He remained where he was for a moment.* I should've brought cleats.

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:29:31 PM)
((Yay..*winces*))

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:29:36 PM)
*It wasn't as strong as she hoped but it was something to help at least. She looked up and looked down at the raven with a smile, she pulled a peice of her shiny black hair and crouched down wrapping the hair around one of those coins until it was held well enough that she could drape it around the raven's neck carefully. "Luck once found must be carefully held, it is slippery.. so don't squeeze."

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:30:34 PM)
*And cawed in return and would nod in appreciation*

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:30:39 PM)
The moon was full and at least it gave a decent light to see. It was clear in the sky, but the rocks were a bit wet from the rushing river*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:31:18 PM)
(Rook - 3 suxx)

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:31:38 PM)
((Sweet! Lets see if I can avoid botching and ending up a chicken))

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:32:49 PM)
*And rook would pause and gently peck Etienne's shoe and then motion to her discarded clothing and tilt her head hopefully*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:33:09 PM)
*picks up the clothing pile instead*

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:33:35 PM)
*.....and caws to Gideon and nods to thanks And lifts off* ((and celebration was had, as there were no nudist pookas!))

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:33:36 PM)
Papa.. is there any reason I should know, to avoid the use of cantrips?

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:33:45 PM)
Non

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:33:49 PM)
*It wasn't his day. Bly got impatient and tried to climb again, this time faltering lower.* (had 5 suxx and failed again.)

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:34:26 PM)
*She looked up at Imani then from where she was crouching in the sand, she seemed to study him for a moment before she picked up one more of the coins and turned it over in her hand. "Stone to stone. Rock to rock. Your way cannot be blocked, the height is nothing but a step towards the end." She tossed the coin then rather purposedly at Imani's mouth, fully expecting the 'cap to simply eat it.*

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:35:12 PM)
*He smirked at Etienne, catching the coin in his mouth and chomping it up*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:35:16 PM)
He frowned, not wanting to see the other sidhe hurting himself instead looked at where Etienne was casting as he waited his turn paitently.

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:35:44 PM)
(Imani - 4 suxx)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:35:53 PM)
*And Bly climbed and again slid, he could feel his blood maiking the rocks slick* (Soak me 2ChimL, and you're at 5 total succ)

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:36:27 PM)
*And with that...she would lift off and fly, attempting to keep pace with the others, and keeping close to the rocks without hurting herself*

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:37:15 PM)
Appreciate it*He winked at Etienne and started for the rocks. Claws out and tobacco in mouth, he got started*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:38:20 PM)
*She stood then and tried not to look up at where Bly was slipping, she pulled a few more hairs from her head and braided them into a thin but fairly tight little rope. Stooping she picked up a small rock out of the sand and tied the braid around it carefully and tightly before she looked up at Bly, he could be mad at her later. "Determination is everything when you seek to put a wrong right, let fate lend its hand and see you to your destination so that destiny can be answered." (If I can get him without being to close?)

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:38:48 PM)
(...failed soak. I'm a horrible climber that's gonna try not to frenzy. At Wounded. *takes over another Gwydion title*)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:39:55 PM)
(you may)

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:40:17 PM)
(Bly 5 suxx)

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:40:25 PM)
(3/3/5/2/1 no fails in there and all FiF used)*Imani was a beast of a climber on his own, but with Etienne's help he was outdoing himself today. Claws and steel toes clacking against stone, he scurried up like it was no thing*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:41:10 PM)
((Failed my first roll. lol Typical.))

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:41:10 PM)
*He could pull himself up onto the wet soil and rock*

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:41:18 PM)
(so, I failed the wp roll. >.<)

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:41:28 PM)
(...lmao)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:41:55 PM)
((Soak me 1 ChimL and you're back on the ground Gideon)) *and anger completely overcame Eugene as he was hanging 50 feet above the ground on a rock...*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:43:10 PM)
*She tucked the rock in her pocket and looked at Atvet. "Thank you for being patient Atvet." She titled her head slightly and then reached over and motioned for him to hold his hands out. Once he had she filled them both with sand and traced the word for strength in latin on one of them and safe in the other. "We face a feat of dedication, with a fight ahead and only pain behind us. Seek the top in safety, choose your holds well for fate will help you to know the path."

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:43:15 PM)
*He checked things out up top while the others were still on the way*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:43:35 PM)
(Atvet - 4 suxx)

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:44:02 PM)
He nodded thanks to Etienne, still quite serious and began his own attempt.

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:44:24 PM)
*she looked over at Papa then. "Are you climbing with us Papa?"

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:44:26 PM)
*quiet. the mansion has some dim lights on the first and top floors, surrounded by decaying gates and black roses*

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:44:47 PM)
If you all make it, I be climbing, too. But I be here until I see if I need to be taking anyone back

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:44:55 PM)
Medic duty I am.

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:45:43 PM)
((*fails soak too, takes one*)) Goddamnit.

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:46:07 PM)
*glaring at the -cliff- that Papa calls a wall*

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:46:25 PM)
*fly fly fly*

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:46:45 PM)
(Imani - per/investigation dif 7)

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:47:12 PM)
(1)

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:47:36 PM)
*Bly lost it then and there on the wall. Holding on he punched at it cursing like he was a coach on a baseball team with a bad call.. wait, he was a coach. Snarling, the sidhe started upward intent on tackling the first person he saw because it was all their fault.*

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:48:24 PM)
(4 rolls: 5 succ, 2 succ, 2 succ, 8 succ_ Atvet has a couple moments where he hesitates but apparently his looking over the wall in advance helped him as he scoots up without much difficulty. Waiting for the others and singing lowly)

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:48:57 PM)
*And when possible, nora would land on the side of the cliff and look down, watching*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:50:01 PM)
*she nodded to him then. "I appreciate that.." Looking up she could see Bly's rage and had no idea how to help him. "I'm afraid we may need it." She thought for a moment "Amor Fati, amor vincit omnia, credite fati." Another few hairs pulled and braided to a strong thin tiny rope that she tied around her wrist before she moved to climb.*

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:50:06 PM)
*Snooping around, he found something of interest and went to check it out. The toolshed got its lock bitten off, and the cap poked around inside*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:50:27 PM)
(5 suxx for Et)

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:51:14 PM)
*And she like Gideon, couldn't seem to get started. (fail on roll one)

Andrew 'Atvet' Inglis (Oct 10, 2011 11:51:24 PM)
He eyed the very unhappy Gwydion and continued to sing beneath his breath. (the gummi bears theme song for anyone listening)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:52:46 PM)
(Etienne, soak me 1, you fall to the ground)

Nora Rook (Oct 10, 2011 11:53:30 PM)
*caw caw caw with Atvets tune*

Eugene Gibson (Oct 10, 2011 11:53:34 PM)
(Question: Does Bly still have a -1 while angered due to the collar or is it void because of the rage?)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:53:37 PM)
*Rakes. Saws. There was 50 feet of hose and another 50 feet of rope, as well as a trashcan and sme garden tools*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:54:06 PM)
(soaked 1, 2 suxx to climb and then fail)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:54:16 PM)
(The penality only goes away if the rage negates wound penalties, it's a pain penalty)

Papa Bernard (Oct 10, 2011 11:54:48 PM)
*Etienne kept creeping up and sliding back down, her fingers and feet getting cut* (soak me 1 ChimL, you have 1 total succ)

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:54:55 PM)
Etienne.. I have an idea. *scuffing the dirt by his foot and making a little pile in front of him, reaching behind him to grab his own jacket's collar behind his head, and "lift" himself with a light jump onto the pile*

Gideon Ryder (Oct 10, 2011 11:55:28 PM)
((Bunking for Gimmix, using FiF sux toward it))

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:55:39 PM)
(soaked 1)

Imani Shields (Oct 10, 2011 11:55:55 PM)
*Imani tied the rope and hose together and took a moment to make sure it would hold. When he was satisfied with the result he carried it back over to the cliff and peered down*Hold tight, I got ya'll somethin *He tied one end to whatever up there looked the most sturdy and dropped the other end down the cliff*

Etienne Bourgeois (Oct 10, 2011 11:56:00 PM)
"What's the idea?"
