"...konir sagon daor ya'skoros..." Jareth trails off from chanting.

"Eh, Mario? Oh t'e ahhhhh, doorway?  That be The Gate and The Key, The Seal and The Way, That Which Came Before, Shall Be Again After, Is Ever Present; an what don't actually exist our space bein showy an overly dramatic.  Suspect don't get many audiences what can appreciate t'e effort."

He grabs Akimbo before he can runoff.

"Right, of course," he shakes his head sharply, as if to clear cobwebs, "but should I be shooting it?"

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 766):

The tentacles, like treeroots, stiffen as  the rear wall of the pentagram room slams into the doorway and struggles to push its way through.the walls and floor are starting to warp, and the shelves are shaking odd items loose.

Sederic sees Meikka  beside him, and as he reaches for it a jar falls and splashes on him, and his hair becomes lusterous and grows about hslf a foot, including facial hair and his eyebrows and lashes are quite bushy now, giving him -1 to vision rolls.

The floor under Jareth is becoming soft and stretchy like a loose trampoline.

So far the chalk doorway and the door with the free floating stairs are largely intact, but the glass is cracking on the third portal.

The small demon, looking bruised and dazed struggkes to its knees, and glares at Kalima.

The large, greviously injured demon attempts to ready his polearm for a second swing at the four armed celestial.

The Ymid pockets a few items, and  presses a jewel on its tablet, causing a bright flash near the assorted oeople who came through the gate.

Re: Hunting for a specialty shop
Nodwin judges that this whole room is looking very dangerous.  He takes a second to aim his Sunbolt, before firing it at the demon.

[Private to GM: Nodwin throws his Sunbolt with 1 round of aim.  Skill is 12, so the aim on the Sunbolt gives him his range.  Even if he hits, though, probably not enough to damage it.

14:24, Today: Secret Roll: Nodwin Zideqick rolled 4 using 3d6-3.  Damage if he hits 3D6 - 3.

14:22, Today: Secret Roll: Nodwin Zideqick rolled 12 using 3d6.  Nodwin throw 3D sunbolt, 1 round aim.]

Jocelyn just yells  OUT, And Hold the door open

Mellarill yells Shit-en-ella And shoves the door open; the three of them step outside and Brodak holds the door in his left hand so Mellarill can use her Bow. He has his axe ready in his right hand.

"No need to tell me twice."  Mario lowers his bow and runs, toward the door Brodak is holding, dancing as needed to deal with fallen merchandise, unsteady footing, and whatnot.

Mancini can feel the place coming apart around him,   and Norman still has a grip on the shopkeeper.

The small demon comically  tries to pull its pitchfork from the wall, but it lacks the strength to extract it.

Even faced with the void behind it, the large demon prepares to thrust its billhook at Kalima

Re: Hunting for a specialty shop
After Nodwin throws his missile at the demon, he turns to head for the door.  But he can't make himself move.  Against his better judgement, he stops to thrust a few items in his pouch and backpack.  He's just dying to know what they do.

OOC  The irony of that phrasing is not lost on me.

[Private to GM: I can see that the room is about to come down.  But Nodwin is curious, and I couldn't decide if he would scoop up a few things or not.  I let the dice decide, and they told me he is grabbing a few momentos on the way out the door.
14:26, Today: Secret Roll: Nodwin Zideqick rolled 13 using 3d6.  Nodwin curious control roll 12.]

As the demon moves to attack Kalima once again, Aoife strikes at it with her staff, now charged with electricity...

[Private to GM: Rolled 5 under attack skill to hit, staff rolled 2 damage, but shocking touch, which bypasses DR, did 37 damage!]

"Norman!  Either leave him or bring him, but we need to get out!"  Ardenas looks around to check that all the other friendlies he can see are moving toward the door (can't see into the mist, sorry Aoife and Kalima) and then begins to Light Walk as fast as possible toward the chalk door.

[Private to GM: 20:33, Today: Ardenas Barehand rolled 5 using 3d6.  Light Walk (16) .]

Re: Hunting for a specialty shop
Mancini, confronted with the very real threat of his own mortality, heads towards the nearest exit. Along the way, he pilfers anything of value he can quickly grab.

22:31, Today: Mancini rolled 10 using 3d6.  Smuggling 14.

22:30, Today: Mancini rolled 5 using 3d6.  Merchant 16. Crit!

He turns after leaving and looks for others departing the store, he draws his blade just in case, but stands to the side of the door opposite Brodak.

When Mario passes Brodak and Oly, he'll stop, turn back toward the door, and step to his left so as to be out of the way and still keep a shot back inside.  He raises his bow again, and waits for others to exit.

"Hurry!"

Ardenas, seeming to float over the unsteady floor and scattered merchandise, stops to hold the chalk door as soon as he's on the outside.  "The getting is good, folks!"

Re: Hunting for a specialty shop
OOC I think we have several people all trying to grab merchandise before they leave:
Nodwin
Jareth
Mancini
Clarence

All of us will be on our way, I expect, as soon as we know what we might have grabbed.  Or, if we grabbed I suppose.

Stupid control rolls.  :/

Control rolls?  What control rolls... oh.  Yeah, no, Jareth is just not really as worried as everyone else.  Probably because he doesn't think The Gate and The Key is as dangerous as all that... to Jareth.

Oh, right, that control roll...

Re: Hunting for a specialty shop
In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 788):

each of you make a DX roll. you all get something success is 2 items, good crit is 3, (bad crit is something that injures you...) then roll for quality, like a reaction roll for each item, and also a weirdness magnet check for each item for those that have it.

As to the "nearest door" folks are departing by the doors they came through - a dex check for anyone unencumbered, and a dodge roll may be needed for those who grabbed loot or shopkeepers to get out safely at this time through any of the three.

The chalk door is narrowing, the free floating steps are wobbling, and the brass and glass door is cracking and buckling.


make your rolls and post'em and we will sort out the results.
