    Zero Divide: Episode #2 "Black Star"

    Alan scowls and sticks out his tongue at the people critiquing his advanced tactical skills before settling into a sloppy grin again. Alan peeks his head out of the vehicle and looks to either side for anyone following the group. He then looks at the group as if to ask, "Are you coming or...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [IC]

    Janis nods at Ireena's words, though her eyes narrow critically at her choice of them before the group ventures forth. "Hold, Marot!" Janis hisses. "Before you rush in to rescue, ware what put him there first! As a group, then we'll see to his destiny." Janis looks at Ireena to see the girl's...

    Zero Divide: Episode #2 "Black Star"

    Alan opens up the vehicle door and shouts. "Mike! The ride's here! Come ON! We've gotta go!" he says at the top of his lungs, before sitting down casually at the threshold of the side door waiting. Looking over at Ashana, Alan shrugs. "You should probably be ready to shoot some of them just...

    Zero Divide: Episode #2 "Black Star"

    "Any demise of mine would be anything but early, Ashana. As for helping me? I've been thinking the same thing about you. It's probably healthy - keeps us on our toes." As the van pulls to a halt Alan grins. "So what to we do now? Jump out and shoot stuff? Arrest everyone? I could take off my...

    "What are we to do with her?" Janis asks her companions of the mayor's daughter. "I may flay her with words sometimes, but I'd not have her bloodied in our crossfire if it came to that. And just alike, I'd not send her alone back into the village with the wights and shadows no doubt that lurk...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [OOC]

    But yeah. I think that it's a worthy investment in any case, either of party funds or whatever is Janis's share of the loot since she hasn't really had any items that "jump out at me" as useful to Ratcatchers. In any case, Janis is going to need one to use before we finish the adventure, barring...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [OOC]

    Janis is hoping someone suggests burning down the castle and then let the Inquisitor sorts help sort out which of the possible fleeing inhabitants are safe to kill. Me? I would love for the party to go right back to the village and let Janis make some scrolls of Reincarnation, no matter what...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [IC]

    "Who knows what Mateusz has done? The creature knew of his desires before he sought us out," Janis answers. "We might find the answers we seek with whip and salt," Janis says with an odd mixture of revulsion and eagerness...perhaps flavored by personal knowledge, whether of the giving or of the...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [IC]

    Janis frowns as if displeased by her findings. "What thoughts take hold in you, Ireena? Speak," the witch commands. Finding no obvious treachery, Janis begins to search for hidden ones, perhaps proscribed foods for the priests, suspicious meats, etc as she waits for the girl's answer. "The...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [IC]

    Janis smiles cryptically, before replying in low tones that gather force as she speaks as Sergei leaves. "All ties of blood are merely flesh and memory. They are things that cannot long endure without will, and things which blade and storm sever as neatly as spring parts winter. The infection...

    Funny...I got "Shut up and drink your orange soda, or I will cut you down like last week's mama joke."

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [IC]

    Janis snorts. First you pretend to be offended at the rats in your cellars, the next you beg off access to the castle because you wish to protect them from the cats ...Everyone in this valley more important than a shopkeeper is either in league with Khyber, or a moron, Janis scowls, obviously...

    "It seems as if you've heard the story whole enough," Janis says simply.

    Zero Divide: Episode #2 "Black Star"

    Alan replies in Junian. "<They tried to devour me. They killed a world around me, thin-skinned child - and they tried to take my mind when they failed.>" He continues in English touched with compassion. "If you want to talk about it, later on... Loss and suffering is something that sapients...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [OOC]

    I actually debated just asking too, because it's very close to something Janis might do with normal opponents in other circumstances I think. Of course, contrary to conventional wisdom I'm more prone to open closed doors in D&D games by knocking than I am to pick the locks or kick down the...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [IC]

    Janis snorts. "I reserve my ill will for rats, and I'll take no pardon for stating frankly that this place is full of it no matter what witness and testimonials otherwise." Janis shrugs and then sighs, before straightening and announcing in quite another tone that she usually uses - flowing...

    Zero Divide: Episode #2 "Black Star"

    "What sort of question is that? How comfortable would you be, in my place?" Alan shakes his head. "Are you comfortable, Ashana? Did you have a sexual relationship with the man you know as 'Georgy'? How did it feel to watch Omega Tau III be abandoned, knowing that you were leaving him behind...

    stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. II [IC]

    Janis rolls her eyes at the naive priests breaking host-bread with the lord. "Hero? I am but humble a rat-catcher. Heroes? Fah. Heroes, always slaying windmills and chasing princesses like idiots." Janis wag her long fingers in a sweeping motion, as if disposing of the notion that she would do...

    "Swallow your embarrassment and introduce us, girl," Janis commands Ireena in the arched tones of a scolding schoolmistress.
