Kami looked over the scene as they got to the last door, having swept the whole structure and stowed the fish men. At this point, he considered it for a moment and looked at the rest.

"Right, who's for pressing on then?"

[WhamBamSam]

"Unfortunately, there are limits to my knowledge of my creator's lab. Would any of you perchance be familiar with the arcane enough to know what that creature is?"

What knowledge check, if any, would let us know what happened in the room with the magical apparatus?

(Nothing happened in the room with the apparatus, and I'm honestly not sure the RAW way to identify it. OOC it's a prototype Create Food trap. Boop it to feed the non-Warforged if necessary. Assuming you're investigating the destroyed room, you could try Knowledge (Arcana), Spellcraft, and taking 20 with Search.)

"Right, who's for pressing on then?"

(Are you locking them in with the golem tank, or the Create Food trap?)

[Rhyvurg]

"I have no idea what any of this is. But this room is as good as any, leave them here."

[Metahuman1]

(Create food trap, and he's proposing that once that's done and they've swept the inside they start checking out the outside.

[sparky9042]

"Pressing on sounds...well enough. I may as well join you, as I currently lack purpose."

Are we going on an adventure? Adventures sound fun!

The psicrystal glows excitedly. The warforged does not.

Will you go find someone else to bother with your incessant questioning?

OK!

The psicrystal begins orbiting about, attempting to telepathically introduce itself to anyone who feels like listening. 26 sighs.

Having locked the unconscious fish-men away, you proceed out of the laboratory building into the street outside. Ancient weather-scarred buildings tower over you, extending well into the distance. To your left is what may once have been a bell tower, though its greatest heights no longer reach the grey sky above. What had likely been its uppermost floors in ages past lie scattered and broken on the ground below. Directly before you is a street, littered with grimy crumbling stone wreckage, and in the center, an open manhole toward what had likely been the city sewers in olden times. To your right is an old church, though its windows are either opaque with grime or have been smashed in, the symbol which had adorned its steeple is half gone and covered in grime, and there seems to be a long gash of caved in roofing behind the missing portion.

Makuta gazed around the street impassively, noting its major features in a glance. "I see four options. Two are viable, one in the long-term. One, tower. Get our bearings, look for landmarks. Two, stay on the road. Bad idea, we'll be exposed to anything watching. Three, down in the sewer. No. Just no. Four, into the church. It might have valuable records."

[sparky9042]

"I would agree with your assessment of the situation. Information is at a premium here, and scouting the tower would likely give us some immediate knowledge."

The sewer? I wonder what's down there? It sounds exciting! Is that where the adventure is?

26 groans audibly. "My psicrystal wishes to go into the sewer. That is a fairly sound indication that we ought to do anything but that."

[Metahuman1]

"Well, I'll vote Tower then Church in that order then."

Kami chimed in as he cast his gaze back and forth a couple of times, trying to get a feel for the place.

[Rhyvurg]

"I agree, we should investigate the church."

[Wahrheit]

"Bearings come first. Then records." Without another word, Makuta headed for the entrance to the tower with fullblade at the ready.

[Rhyvurg]

"Or we could do that."

[Metahuman1]

"Doesn't matter to me too much as long as we don't get killed, and we keep the killing down to what ever is gonna be absolutely essential to accomplish that first part."

He started moving in the direction of the Church with the other two, keeping Lal and 26 near by.

[WhamBamSam]

(Okay, I seriously can't tell whether you guys are going to the tower or the church or still arguing about it. Make a decision and someone open a door or something.)

[sparky9042]

"I am inclined to agree." 26 follows Makuta towards the tower.

I think we're heading to the tower. Looks like Metahuman put the wrong word in? Also, not going to be the one to open the door oh wait I'm a warforged, there's only so much a trap can do to me I'm just asking to get smote with a sentence like that...

26 then steps forward and opens the door to the tower.

Yeah, sorry, was a bit distracted when I put up that post.

[WhamBamSam]

The door creaks open, revealing a dusty stone entrance chamber. The walls and floor are worn and cracked, and portions of the ceiling are crumbling or have already fallen, leaving bits of rock scattered on the ground, and patches of uneven height above, even a few small rays of pale light drifting down from the next floor. Directly in front of you is a circular desk and in the far corner of the room is a door with a dust covered picture of a staircase on it.

Each square is a 5 foot square, brown stuff is rubble, and the yellow dots are light coming down from small holes in the ceiling.

Lal, meanwhile, hung behind for the most part, just observing everything. For the most part, she stuck close to Kami, though she did scamper about to look at whatever caught her interest.

Spoiler: OOC

Sorry for the delay! I completely forgot about this. >_<

[Rhyvurg]

"I'll watch the door, so we're not trapped up there in case we're spotted."
