BARGHEST

[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!]

So you're gonna be stuck here, huh? Forever? 'Cause if two of us go across, and Mira sacrifices himself, the boat isn't coming back. Ever. And to make sure, I'll totally sink it because it isn't magical. You know that, right?

There's a cat somewhere back there.
remarch: (Flip the script)

[personal profile] remarch 2014-03-09 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
Do cats have souls?
wingtamed: (wait、 what?)

[personal profile] wingtamed 2014-03-09 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno.
remarch: (She says you used to be so kind)

Forever. Ever and ever and ever. Do you think more "food's" gonna come walking up? This totally isn't a holiday destination, you know? We haven't seen anyone else on this side. So you'll be stuck here, won't you?

With one guy to eat. And there's three of you. So which of you is gonna get the last meal you'll ever have?
wingtamed: (she wore her heart on her sleeve.)

Or I can jus' swim.
remarch: (Are like shooting stars)

[personal profile] remarch 2014-03-09 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
No, I'm not solving your stupid puzzle! I'm wet, and hungry, and totally tired, and you're in my way! You're gonna let us across without eating any of us, so you can keep your stupid boat and go places and learn to fish or hunt people down and kill them, or whatever people do with unmagical boats, I seriously don't care, or I'm gonna ruin your day for the next eternity because you can't even starve to death!

And you'll have to spend it all looking at each other on this spot and going "That bastard took my last meal I will ever, ever have, all because I wanted to play riddles."

Do we have a deal?!
remarch: (Can we pretend that)

[personal profile] remarch 2014-03-09 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
I KNOW!
wingtamed: (of course not!)

[personal profile] wingtamed 2014-03-09 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Better listen ta' him.

He's been known ta' freeze his enemies right in their tracks.
wingtamed: (so sad we had to fade it.)

A'right then.

Go, Lepus. [ here he is. trying to hand him lupus, too. ]
remarch: (Never knew you had such a dirty mind)

[personal profile] remarch 2014-03-09 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Takes a few deep breaths, calming down.]

And you totally you take the ghost guy across, then you take the other ghost guy across, which leaves two ghosts over there and one with us, then you take Lupus across and the ghost guy back, so it's one ghost and lupus over there, one ghost with you, one ghost with me, then when you come back it's two ghosts plus us and it's even, and then we go across. And if I fucked it up and they eat you, I'll ruin their day forever.

[Look, sometimes you just have to emotional abuse someone before actually bothering to play.]
