GULGALLANA & TIAMAT
[You exit the parlor through a doorway in your team's color and find yourself in some kind of entry hall. Aside from the one behind you, there are four doors - one on each of the side walls, and two opposite the entrance - each with an image carved into it. They're a bit hard to make out, however, since only one torch on the far wall is lit, lending the place a gloomy atmosphere. What you can see is that the room, once richly decorated, is now a mess; the walls are covered in peeling, royal purple wallpaper, and great swaths of the ceiling are coated with sticky cobwebs. The floor is covered with large marble tiles, inlaid with some kind of swirling design in glittering gold - but sadly, it too is out of shape. The tiles seem to shift a bit under your weight, and some of them are even missing altogether.
If you try the doors you'll find that all of them are locked, and no amount of manhandling can get them to budge.]
[OOC: This game is a treasure hunt/dungeon crawl! Your characters will be exploring the rooms they pass through and facing different challenges in each one. Some rooms will be exploratory, others will have specific rules! The goal is just to reach the end. Teams will be scored on things like teamwork, cleverness, creativity, etc.
Skills are ON, but there will be penalties if you mess up Knut's castle. He lives here, you know!]

Creepy.
[stands up straight and tentatively, very tentatively, tries to cross the board to the other side of the ravine. he's holding onto one end of a makeshift clothing-rope, while Dissolve and Cut have the other end. You know. Just in case he falls]
[He goes slowly, trying to keep his steps light, and he makes sure the platform can carry his weight before crossing fully]
no subject
Let us know if you see anything out there.
[ At the end of the board or below it or whatever. ]

Okay, now it's time for the hard part... Do you mind using the rope as a distraction while we make it across? It's probably going to take us a while, after all.
no subject
I have a better idea. Can you guys cross as slowly and cautiously as I did? I don't wanna risk waking up whatever is down there.
I can use the rope as a distraction if it does wake up, but I'd rather that be a last resort.

All right. I'll be on guard, then.
no subject
But Dissolve, you lead, and I'll hold onto you.

[Then, I suppose it's time for us to cross? Slowly and cautiously, but there are still two of us crossing at a time.
Still, Lucky should be on distracting duty if the thing wakes up.]
no subject
[ Holding onto Dissolve's sleeve, he'll follow behind her. He's thankfully light, but even then, he moves as quietly and slowly as possible, more so since he's trailing behind someone. ]
no subject
oh whoops, halfway across Diz looked down. she's suddenly hit with a sense of vertigo and start to wobble!
Cut is doing okay though, and stabilizes her enough to finish crossing! Ironically enough.]
no subject
Now then, the next is... the rope, huh...?
no subject
[ Cut looks up at the rope. ]
We have to climb this up to the top or something?
no subject
Not bad, not bad, you two~ D'you want me to test the rope first, too? I bet we do have to climb to the top.
no subject
Sorry for making you take point like this all the time.
no subject
You're the most capable person here, so give it a shot. We can try to trail after you.
But yeah, sorry...
no subject
You guys don't have to apologize. I've been here longer.
[and I did stuff like this back home all of the time]
We might be on different teams, but we're playing this game together. So I don't mind helping you guys out.
[with that and a mock salute, he tugs on the rope to make sure it an carry his weight, before he begins to climb it easily]
