BARGHEST

[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!]

[Holds out a hand, letting the frost spread and condense on his hand.]

What sorta shape?

[wingtamed]

[ my memories have come in handy for once wow. ]

The thicker one, sorta l shaped. [ and he. uses his hands to demonstrate this. a long handle that bends at the end, yeah. ] Cube shape'd probably be easier? The other--[ hands are not good for describing this shit but HE'S TRYING ANYWAY ] a pick.

[remarch]

...Think I've got it.

[MAKING THEM OUT OF ICE.]

But no idea if they're gonna be strong enough?

[wingtamed]

Pick a door.

[remarch]

[Points to door 1!]

And if it's filled with spiders, so not my fault.

[wingtamed]

If there's spiders, I'll just haveta count on you ta take care of 'em.

[ but yes he is taking those ice lock picks and moving to the door to. try and pick the lock. ]

[soulping]

[really, that's your solution?

but amazingly, your host didn't plan for this. and your natural 20 EXPERT SKILLS means that SOMEHOW, you don't break the ice picks. it takes a good bit but eventually you hear a click- and the door is now unlocked!]

[remarch]

I'm grabbing the torch before we go.

[Gonna back track to try picking up that torch!]

[wingtamed]

A'right.

[ look at this. he's so proud of himself. he's practically glowing. ]

[it can be removed and will come with you without protest]
