Gania
After Mozerat climbed atop her back, Gania made her way to the exit. Beyond the door was the little treasure display area where the serpent glaive was kept. As she touched the weapon, a voice spoke out and the room began filling with blue light. She could feel herself and Mozerat being lifted upward.
"You have completed the Rite of Might. You have proven yourself worthy of this treasure. Use it wisely."
Gania could instinctively understand her new weapon's capabilities. She knew that in addition to being a formidable weapon, it could also be used to bind people. What's more, she understood how to make it do so.
After a few moments, the blue light began to fade and Gania found herself standing atop a sand dune with Mozerat on her back and her new weapon in her hand. A few feet away she spotted Twessa having an interaction with two vaguely familiar men. In the opposite direction there were more lights similar to the one she had just emerged from.
What do you do?
Istvan
The serpents under Istvan's spell all pushed and shoved against each other to be the one that had the pleasure of doing as the arcane duelist requested. In the end though, they lifted him up gently like he desired and Istvan soon found himself standing next to the exit. And not a moment too soon. The hourglass hovering at the edge of his vision was moments away from emptying!
But as he pushed through the door and into the treasure display area beyond, he knew he had succeeded the moment his fingers brushed against the prize waiting for him to claim. The large glass beaker containing a syrupy looking brown liquid inside.
"You have completed the Rite of Thought," a voice said
"You have proven yourself worthy of this treasure. Use it wisely."
As the room began to fill with blue light and Istvan was lifted upward, he instinctively understood what was contained within his new beaker. It was Chronos Elixir. Three doses of it. It was an unbelievably rare liquid that could return something to a state it once was.
Before he really had a chance to think about all of the potential applications though, he found himself standing on a sand dune. Gania was a few paces away, and Twessa was with two vaguely familiar men a bit further off. In the opposite direction were two more blue lights, much like the one he had just exited.

Harlin
Stoog held Harlin at arm's length when the ranger made his offer. The troll's ugly face broke into a crooked smile and he brought Harlin in for one last squeeze, leaving a glob of snot on the man's shoulder. Then he let go and finally allowed Harlin to stand on his own two feet again.
"You good friend," Stoog said as he led Harlin toward the door.
"We best buds. Best bud gets princess for other best bud! So nice." It was quite evident that Harlin had brightened the troll's day considerably. As Stoog reached out to the double doors and cracked them open an inch or so, he paused and looked down at Harlin again, concern on his face.
"But what if best bud decide to stay with princess instead of Stoog? Gimme somethin to come back for. Then I know you not steal princess for self." He held out a hand and waited for Harlin to put something in it.

Please join us in the Group Two thread for your next post. Here are the stats for your new treasure:
quote:
Serpent Glaive
reach, +1 damage, two-handed, 2 weight
On a successful Hack and Slash, you may forego dealing damage and instead bind someone with snake-like coils as your weapon wraps around them. (or at least bind a man-sized portion of their body.) The weapon is unusable for attacks while it is binding someone.
Istvan
Please join us in the Group Two thread for your next post. Here are the stats for your new treasure:
quote:
Chronos Elixir
2 weight, 3/3 uses
You may spend a use of Chronos Elixir to return something to a state it was previously in. You could fix a broken object, mend an injured friend, or even unbake a loaf of bread. Feel free to think big and get creative (although there are limits). When you use it, what you intend for it to do matters.
Harlin
The troll opened the doors for you, but wants an item from you so that he knows you will come back to get it later. This is the "concrete assurance" that you will hold up your end of the parley. You can give him any item you want, or Defy Danger if you want to keep everything.
