"That's why you're holding the rope,Standing around looking at the doors is worse; we're on a time limit here," Ice replied, "by the way, did you ever find out what was on that recording?"

"Maybe I've got a few pictures lying around. What's it worth to you?"

Re: IC: E-i-E - Ardent Emancipation
Ice does not find any traps. When he opens the door he is confronted by a 15 meter long, 1.5 meter wide passageway. Every 5 meters lies a ray shield that turns off and on at irregular intervals. They appear to deactivate on some kind of timer but your immediate attempts at finding a pattern prove fruitless. At the very end of the hallway lies another door. Jarik can just barely make out a soft "thump... thump... thump..." sound emanating from behind the far door.

"I'm not sure you going in first is the best idea..." Kelaeon says with a frown as Ice moves, "As you said you are the slicer and are rather important." Kelaeon glances at the red door.

Re: IC: E-i-E - Ardent Emancipation
As you watch the ray shields activate and de-activate for a while, you eventually hear a hooowoosh sound as several sections of the deck plating disappear. This is quickly followed by a feeeeessshhhhhh sound as jets of red hot magma pour down from the ceiling and into the holes. You notice that the ray shields seems to be generating a protective ward around the hole, funneling the magma down the hole. If one were caught inside such a trap... A quick yet fiery death would ensue.
SpoilerKel suddenly senses quite a bit of danger.

Ice stands dumbfounded at the scene before him.
"What? How does the magma get up above the room, do they pump it up? If they pump it up, why does it need to be dropped back down, why not just pump it to the level it's needed? Why does this room even exist??"
The Mrlssi simply glares at the hallway for a few seconds.
"Anyone want to make a bet whether the blue door leads to something icy cold?" he asks.TC for short

"These traps are a bit...extreme..." Kelaeon says glancing at the blue door. "I'd predict you are right." He says, "Leaving green...what? Acid? Gas? Deadly plants?"

"Could use the Force to open the door at the end of the hallway, see if it's worth going through... though it might be a rancor or a krayt dragon tapping from the other side," Ice says, with just a hint of sarcasm.Last edited by Thundercracker; 2012-11-09 at 10:15 PM.

"According to the Force there isn't a safe room...so it is really more a 'pick your poison' option." Kelaeon states, "What equipment do we have as a group to make it easier to deal with?" Kelaeon ask looking over everyone.

"I don't think we can risk going through here," Ice says, "the magma is random, so we basically have to get lucky to dodge it. Plus we don't know what's through the other side or if the door is locked; we could get trapped at the far end of the chamber. The best part, if we get unlucky, we're dead; I don't like to play at games I can't cheat at."
"I say we open another door," he continues, pulling the rope back from Graff and winding it into his utility belt, "but it's someone else's turn this time."TC for short

""I'm game. Everyone stand clear of the green door."
When Jarik was sure that everyone was a reasonable distance away, he opened it.

Re: IC: E-i-E - Ardent Emancipation
Jarik had tried to be gentle but he had misjudged the solidness of the door and it appeared to have broken.
Oops.
What lay beyond his little accident was even more troubling. It didn't take a genius to guess what the green liquid was. It certainly wasn't gelatin.

Re: IC: E-i-E - Ardent Emancipation
Kelaeon sighed, they would need to find a way around these traps. "Do you see a way across? I don't like it, but we can try the levitation trick again...preferably testing it on an item first this time, then a person."

"I'll bite the bullet..." mutters Sairen to Ice as he moves to open the blue door. Titus places a hand on the Chiss' shoulder, halting his master and moving to do the task himself.

Re: IC: E-i-E - Ardent Emancipation
Jax, quite tired of waiting, pushes past Titus and hits the keypad. He then struts - like a courageous warrior - into the Blue Room. He is confronted by an odd sight. He stands upon a thing ledge that overlooks a pit that is roughly seven meters deep. Inside there are eight crazed prisoners who appear to be eating the remains of several other prisoners. The crazed inmates are sealed in the pit via a light bridge that blankets over top the entire pit. Presiding above them is a crazed looking prison guard who has fashioned a patchwork cape made of flesh as well as a crown made of bones and eyes. He wields a Wookiee's tibia and yells, "My court, we have meat! Rejoice!" The crazed prisoners clamor and howl like animals. The 'King' grasps a black lever next to him and yanks it back. Suddenly the light bridge disappears, with it any protection you may have had from the crazed prisoners...

"Jax, get back here!" Ice yells, "We'll waste 'em as they come up the stairs and through the door!"
The Mrlssi takes a step back and creates a makeshift blaster turret at his feet, pointing it at the doorway.
"Front row kneel," Ice says, following suit, though it was hardly necessary.

Kelaeon growls and draws his lightsaber and activates it. "Let's not just go running ahead stupidly." He says annoyed.

Move action, draw+activate saber
Move action, move to AB13 and be ready to chop things up as they pass. Obviously not out idiot :P

Re: IC: E-i-E - Ardent Emancipation
Jarik smirked as Jax came charging back into the room. Finally, something that could die.
"Hey Stumbles, can I use some explosives? Is that allowed? You're leading the op, so I need to clear it with you before hand."
