[Adventure] Little Workshop of Horrors (Judge: stonegod)

[Pentius]

Canus looks over the twisted abominations and shrugs. "If there's life worth saving, it isn't in here."

 

[Neurotic]

"Let's head back, checking as we go. We set the furnace to blow and quickly check the rest of the tower. Then we surround it so nothing gets away."

 

[jbear]

Moses nods, a smile creeping into his eyes as he steps away from the macabre scene to continue the search elsewhere.

 

[TwoHeadsBarking]

ooc: Wait, so are you heading back to the furnace, or continuing to search for survivors?

 

[Neurotic]

Going back, but if possible going round about way so we search as much as we can BEFORE we set it to blow.

 

[TwoHeadsBarking]

All you find on your way back to the furnace are empty rooms. On occasion you get the feeling that something's following you, but you never see anything.

Soon you return to where Riann and the wounded man wait. Maerek hurries over to the furnace and begins preparations.

"So, you are the ones poking around my workshop," The voice is deep, but slightly grating. It sounds like it's coming from all around you, but if the speaker's in the room he's well hidden. "No matter, all are welcome here. I apologize for any inconvenience my creations have caused. I hope none of you were irreparably damaged. Although, in my experience few things are beyond fixing."

Maerek looks up when he hears the voice, his face grim. "That's Thurven. Riann, can you help me with this?" he asks, gesturing at the furnace. "I think we might have visitors soon." Riann nods and begins to assist.

"Is that...? Really, Maerek, can you not see the potential of what I have done? Can all you think to do is destroy my work? How... disappointing."

Maerek looks as though he's about to reply, but then he shakes his head and continues to work.

"Very well. And the rest of you? Will you not accept the gifts that I offer? Trust me, I can improve your fragile forms a thousand times over. The strength of metal, combined with the adaptability of flesh. Think about what you could do with such might."

[sblock=ooc]Hmm, I'm not sure if I've told you guys yet, but I'm currently really busy with moving. My post rate isn't going to be very good for the next week (perhaps you've already noticed that part) but I'm still around. Hopefully everything will be sorted out by, well, next week. Anyway, that's why I haven't been posting here as much as I'd like.[/sblock]

"The Stained approach to do the bidding of their Scarlet Master... Brace yourself for the Storm"

Moses steps back into a defensive position, his staff humming with electrically charged energy, looking around at the walls and the furniture as though he expects them to suddenly spring to life.

OOC: Moses goes into Total Defense while Maerek works on the furnace

 

[Pentius]

Canus barks out a sarcastic laugh. "Sorry, Thurven, but I've seen your creations. I do a killing to keep myself looking this good, and I'd rather not toss it away on the designs I've seen here. Besides, cold iron doesn't sit well with me, these days."

 

[TwoHeadsBarking]

GM: Tell me where you want to go on the map. The top door leads to the outside, the bottom door goes to where you just went. I don't have a token for Moses yet, but I'll come up with one if you don't have a picture for him. Also, roll initiative.
