Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
"Yeah, you should go back later and get your fancy clothes," Cass says. Despite the slight joke, she still isn't smiling about much. She is glad she doesn't have to deal with a tailor, though. "Me, I've got all I need for right now." She pats the spot where here extra clips are, though it's hard to see with her lined coat over the bandolier. "Where we headed next?"

It takes a minute or two, but the Hunters will eventually see claws breaking through the dirt. Then, in almost an instant, four of the creatures have fully broken through the ground, sniffing for prey.

[Theater Plot]
Fade still not 1100% sure who to kill now will use his shadow sliding near one of the guys shooting around (the NPC who aimed at him).
Jumping out of his shadow with a sword in hand glooming white on one edge and black on the other, he tries to execute the first one by slashing away his head. The sword itself is high magic and will drain the soul of people it wounds. The effect is as strong as the wound it causes is so a killing hit gives Fade back a lot more health then a scratch.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Oooh. So he's a spirit of some kind then! That's much better. Though, it's not often that the catamander sees kin like Freddie around. Though, the demon fox's demonstration was clearly quite impressive if her expression was to be judged accurately. "I see. That's pretty cool!" Nephea said, dodging the questions for just a bit longer. She was rather good at dodging in general.
Adjusting her cap, which happened to be the sort a 'newsie' would wear, she pushed it back somewhat so her ears could peek out from underneath. It got rather stuffy when she left them folded back against her head for too long. The horns were still hidden but probably not very well given the points where they held the soft hat up. "Weeeelll.." she began, trying to think of a good reason that would involve her hand in another person's pocket. Of course, given the unique nature of what had been in Freddie's pocket, she couldn't think of anything believable. So maybe the truth would be the next best thing? "Um.. Well, I was mostly looking for where you keep your money.."

Well.
There you go.
Reaction totally opposite of the people Freddie had met previously. Instead of being terrified this critter just shrugged it off. Even thinks the Huldra looks neat!
But then...
Most children seem to think the Huldra looks neat. Like Lily!
Anywho, sounds like this person is a pick-pocket. "I see..." the Huldra replies. The demon-fox' tone suggests that there is much disapproval of hands in pockets for the purpose of finding money. "Couldn't you just ask for some instead of trying to sneak it?"
That usually results in fewer hands being cut off.Warning! Random Encounter™ detected!

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
[Hotel of Zombie-Ghosts! (Sans Cthulhu)]
Creepy ghosts possessing their own bodies could still be imprisoned in a magical barrier attuned to ghost-trapping or banished from the mortal planes indefinitely. Javert may want to be on the lookout for any magical snares that could seal him away or bind him to anything.
Without further comment from the narrator, Lintha punches a button on the elevator's control panel and the small, enclosed machine begins to ascend. Pulleys squeak as the rickety pod climbs up to where the thirteenth floor would be and stops for but a brief second. When it grinds to a halt, Javert might hear a panicked and portending thunking against the door. The temperature rises inexplicably as an outlandish siren knells in the background. Then the lights flicker before the platform continues along its merry way up to the fifteenth floor, where it dings softly before the doors slowly peel open.

Needless to say, Oliver doesn't precisely take the news that the doom-zombie is apparently frickin' fire-proof very well. In fact, you could say he takes it quite badly.
"**** this. Let's go. Let's just go, there's got to be an easier way around than this."
So saying, he begins feeling his way along the wall, trying to get somewhere, anywhere where he doesn't have to deal with horrible doom-zombies that just won't die.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
It's kind of hard to find a hand-and-a-half sword that's the size of a shortsword designed for an already small creature...
"Okay, narration, that's enough of that."
The fourth wall took 2d6 points of damage, and Kyinde was left wondering what exactly just happened.
Still, no need to dwell too much on it. Her next destination was the Dancing Fox Inn to rest up, and she got there quite a bit more quickly than expected. And so the thread switched.When in doubt, use cute little dragons.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
NOTE: Sorry I've been absent. I'm training someone at work, and when I get home, I just need to veg in front of the teevee, before going off to sleep.
[Soul Quest]
Irene begins to search the warehouse. As she begins her search, both ladies will possibly note that it is very quiet in here.
The light of Irene's swords cast an earie glow about ten feet around her, allowing her to see the boxes she is walking past clearly, if she wishes to look. There are three directions to search. Which way is she heading?
There are no other threats that Mikani can see. There are people looking at the threesome, but no one seems particularly interested in helping them.
Until a young woman weaing a white dress approaches. She has a sword slung over her back, and is carrying groceries. Oh you poor dears. Come, let me take you to the hospital. She'll lift Lilliane up, after forcing her bag of food-stuff into the other girl's arms. She seems quite strong. Name's Judy.
"Lilliane, ma'am."
No, Judy. Judy says with a smile.

Winifred really hopes that the demons found Grantz' pants as well.
Because.
Well...
We'll just stick with because.
Back to the claw-marked hallway!
The ghost wall has long since departed, though not before giving up the trousers to the demons. Thankfully.
Looks like this path remains open to the part!
And there aren't any fireproof zombies in here either!Warning! Random Encounter™ detected!

She does want to look at the boxes. If they're fireworks or something like that, she'd rather like to know sooner rather than later. I don't know what choices there are for the three directions, so we'll start with straight ahead.

Oh she could very much do that. However, there was just one problem. Wait, no, two of them. "I coooould.." Nephea began, putting her hands behind her back and rocking slightly on her heels. "But I don't want to live off of charity. At least I'll have picked up what I can by my own skills rather than living off of pity." she said. It was probably understandable in a way, though. "And it's not like I'm taking a person's life savings, you know? Just a bit here and there to live off of." and also because it was really, really fun for some reason.
Nephea was doing her best to appear as innocent as possible throughout her explanation. Getting caught was hardly ever good news so perhaps she might get off with a lighter punishment if she managed to convince Freddie to be kind.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
[Slums]
Thievery is rather frowned upon back in the Empyreum. While a thief is not to be hated if they have to steal to eat, they aren't readily forgiven for it either. And as odd looking as the Catamander is Freddie suspects that she would be able to do other kinds of work without too much trouble.
End result?
Not really buying it.
"Then use your hands to make something instead of using them to take what others have made," the Huldra replies. His tone is a little...
Rough.
"You're still young, though. I'm sure a craftsman would be willing to take you as an apprentice if you show the aptitude. But you shouldn't be stealing. That's the work of Discord."Warning! Random Encounter™ detected!

[Arkham Street Hospital: Claw Path]
Grantz gets his pants back and his shirt is dry so now he is fully clothed! Finally it would be embarrassing to continue on without pants or a shirt.
"Well guys this is the path I found when we all split. Freddie I think you should take the lead. Oliver, do you want to be rear guard or shall I? "
SRW Plot: Cave Entrance
Grantz stands in front of the mouth of the cave. The box with all the info earlier said that one of the areas is here. He looks at his travelling companions and asks,
"Well looks like what we are looking for is underground. The cave looks big enough. How do you guys want to walk? Who gets lead and rear guard and all that."
For some odd reason he though he was going to end up as rear guard.

Mikani takes a breath of relief, and smiles at Judy as she arrives.
"Thank you, ma'am...I was worrying about her," she says about Lilliane. "I'm the Druid Princess Misaki, and this is Pearl. I think she'll be OK, she had...some sort of magical itching effect...and I need to catch us up with out friends..."
She wavers a bit though, not sure if maybe Pearl shouldn't get checked out after all!

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44

"Work of what now?" the catamader inquired. Her ears had flattened back somewhat at the rough tone being used but otherwise she seemed to be receptive. "Well.. Alright.. I mean, I've been trying that but, well, I've kinda got a problem. You see, I've got a vocation, sort of. Journeyman alchemist. The sort made from mixing plants and other things and not that weird magic stuff that people like to call alchemy sometimes. Not to say I don't use some herbs and stuff to get the occasional magical result but I swear the other kind is just wizardry hiding under a bad mask. But, anyway. Um, I've been having trouble trying to find people who're willing to buy what I make.. And without them, I don't have any money to get better ingredients and so then I can't make more things and I think you can see how things go from there." the catamander said, turning out her pockets to emphasize. They happened to be quite bare aside from a sizable amount of lint.
"So I'm just doing what I used to so I can survive." Nephea fiddled with the quarter of a mask that hung around her neck as she thought for a moment. "Well, what if I were to only take from other people causing 'discord' or whatver? Maybe they wouldn't be able to cause as much if they found their pockets empty or something?" she asked. She wasn't about to give up her fun even though she was being perfectly truthful about her situation.

Grantz mumbles incoherently a bit.
"That makes two in the middle plus MDM. We need some in back and some in front."
Red responds,
"Dude you were a boxer right? you should go up front. I'm a shapeshifter I should go at back. I can literally have eyes in the back of my head. "
Grantz nods.

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44
SRW Plot: Cave Entrance -> Cave Interior
Walking around for awhile one will notice that inside the cave, out of reach of sunlight, the inside is bright enough to see in just like Trog's Tavern. A big circular space seems to be the heart of the cave. If one really looks around this part then one will notice an artificial feel to the place. Some of the walls in the cave might even be passageways.
Grantz is in the center crouching at the ground using his scan ability. The others may feel a sort of wave trying to scan them. Grantz can't control who the scan hits only the radius.
Red turns into a flying creature examining the ceilings and such.
Hmmmm...... now what were the others doing in the place?

Re: [Nexus] Inside 44

What exactly is the scan trying to pick up? What information will Grantz get about characters hit by the scan?
Mark simply looks around. Subconsciously, he's reviewing his many different piloting lessons. There's a lot, since his training was rather Matrix-esque (closer to a download than learning).I follow a general rule: better to ask and be told no than not to ask at all.

((This scan simply looks for sentient life forms, just to see if anyone else is around. Shouldn't really bother anyone unless their PC is easily annoyed even by the smallest of things. This kinda also works as a sort of sound sonar, Grantz is trying to make a 3D map in his head. He'll give out the results after everyone posts what they are doing.))

Javert just rests in Lintha's arms before moving and trying to stand. He still leans heavily on her though. He does look rather alarmed at the noises on the thirteenth floor. Thirteen was an unlucky number. He still holds Lintha's waist and rests his head buried in her shoulder. Hew's in a large amount of pain.

And so they march onwards towards adventure!
In Oliver's case, "marching" mostly involves tripping, stumbling and nearly falling flat on his face several times over until he finally realizes that trying to finish this quest blind just isn't going to work.
Cautiously, ready to shut them again the moment anything leaps out at him, Oliver slowly cracks open one eye. Breathes a sigh of relief at the lack of horrible doom-zombies. Continues on after the rest of the party.
Unless, y'know, a horrible doom-zombie or something does leap at him the moment he opens an eye. That would be terrible.
Cave Interior
Huh. Definitely not a normal cave, if it's so well lit despite the lack of natural sunlight. First leans down to rap on the floor with his knuckles, listening to the sound, checking to see what it's made of. One on the other hand is more occupied with looking around to find out where the light's coming from, leaving only Alpha still on guard.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.
