AMALTHEA

[soulping]

[You're wading in a low river, trying to advance as fast as you can--is the apparent setup, anyways. There's a table in the center of the room with a die to roll--and as you do so the world moves around you like some kind of VR deal. Everything looks, smells, and even sounds real… but it can't actually hurt you.]

[A monitor is lit up on the table. It reads: '24 spaces remain.']

Pass on rolling, my luck has been abysmal today.

OBSTACLE: AN INEXPLICABLE WATERFALL THAT FLIES IN THE FACE OF PHYSICS

[fangirlitis]

[15 spaces remain]

[You're going across the river, but the current is suddenly pulling you towards a sharp cliff that's appeared right in front of you. You can't see the river past it, but you hear the familiar rushing of water, the crashing of it against the rocks below. Somehow, you're about to go down a waterfall. It seems like even the laws of physics are against you since this is clearly impossible, but--what do you do?]

> Question the validity of this waterfall's existence
> Ride down it in a barrel
> Grab the rocks near the cliff and try to find a safe way down
> Run away
> Break into a killer guitar solo

OBSTACLE: CLOTHING EATING CYBER-PIRHANAS

[fangirlitis]

[15 spaces remain]

[There are several other people trying to cross the river around you as you move on. While you push through them, you notice an ominous burbling from the water. Suddenly, one of the NPCs is screaming, covering themselves, and running for the shore. It seems you've waded into a swarm of clothing eating cyber-piranhas! Showing up for your hot date without a pair of pants would probably go over badly--what do you do?]

> Question the validity of this creature's existence
> Embrace your new nudist nature
> Try to fight them off with a convenient stick
> Run away
> Break into a killer guitar solo
