GULGALLANA & TIAMAT

[soulping]

[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!]

[ ... oh hell no ]

Yeah, no shit that it's easier said than done. You can probably make it but Dissolve and I are going to need help just reaching that thing.

[ the woes of being short... ]

[carptricks]

Let's focus on getting up to the balcony first. We can worry about the chandelier later.

[sakazuki]

Well, got any ideas? This is more your kind of stuff than mine.

[carptricks]

I'm trying to see if there's anyway to get up this stairwell. . .

[but it might be too broken to use]

[sakazuki]

We can do what you did before: see how much weight it can take and use the makeshift rope as a lifeline if one of us falls.

[carptricks]

[nods]

Right. Gimme a few minutes, and I'll let you know how it goes.

[starts making his way (cautiously) up the crumbled stairwell]

[sakazuki]

[ And a nod from him. He'll be here, holding onto the rope as tightly as possibly while watching Kaito. ]

[hopefully this will not end terribly]
