[QUOTE="Kwargrow, post: 7629580, member: 6855382"] Contract Completion: 10 xp [B][SIZE=3]Taking Out the Trash[/SIZE][/B] Hawkeye sits on the ground before he slips on his VR headset to disengage the lock. Trollick concentrates on his magical energy to release his Thump as soon as the hears the lock *click* and Syd prepares to rush into the room the instant after the Thump goes off. Obrik keeps watch on the hallway.

In the span of a thought Obrik leaps forward and touches Syd’s back, using his Academic magic to give him a boost of strength. [sblock=Syd forces door] Syd: 87+81(d100)+50(lever)=218 Roll needed: 200 [/sblock] With one mighty push and a loud crack Syd forces the door open.
