[d20 Modern] The "In Character" Character game Part Two

[KitanaVorr]

Vivi heads outside into the snow with Festy and Jemal. "Well, its a big problem. Something bad has been happening and they need somebody to help figure out what to do about it." Vivi glances around nervously as if the walls had listening devices. "Maybe I should let them explain."

Wille slides one foot behind him, crouching before slamming the hand forward. He could feel his fist tingle with some kind of power, but he's not sure what. That done he hurries to catch up to Festy, Jemal and Vivi.

While Wille is heading off, suddenly Mario exclaims loudly in a language nobody seems to understand. But Wille is suddenly a glow and feels much better.

[Wille Heal: 9 points]

Six messes around with the gadget, noticing that it does indeed have strange writing alongside the edges of it. Nothing he could decipher though. A claps caught his eye and he presses it to reveal inside something strange looking indeeed.

 

[Lichtenhart]

"I'm Daniel. Pleased to meet you. Though I gotta say, I'm a little surprized. Everyone else seemed to know who I was without asking. So, what're you doing in my dream?"

"In your dream? Oh I see, that's a possible explanation as well. I was more prone to the 'catastrophical event that will change or maybe even destroy reality forever if it isn't stopped', but we may as well be in a dream. But then I'd say we were in Hahn's dreams rather than yours... Nevermind, this isn't the first time today I'm absolutely wrong. Does anyone else need my help? I still feel energy inside me, so I guess I can heal someone else."
You can visibly notice that Mario is very happy about this whole healing thing.
"Mmm doesn't that thing look like the device Lara Croft had in Tomb Raider movie? I am afraid I can't be of much more help since I didn't see it. Unless I can use this energy to learn something about that writing. Do you think it could work?"

Pikachu follows Vivi out of the snow and then draws Mario's attention squealing "Piika? chuu." [Shouldn't we follow her? She looks really worried.]
"Oh, Pikachu's right, we'd better talk on our way back to the tower. Whatever worries the likes of Galdalf, Saruman and Raistlin shouldn't be left waiting."
"Pika!" [Come back here, little one!] he says as he catch up with the yellow mouse, pointing at his shoulder.

OOC: sorry I should have stated before my spells for today:

[Dalamar]

What went wrong? It... It didn't come out.
Wille looks at his hands as he walks.
We are outside now, or at least heading, do I feel cold in the snow, what with the skimpy ninja outfit and all.

OoC: I think I know what's missing from the activation, but I'll let my IC-me think it over a while.

[Festy_Dog]

"Yeah that's the gizmo from the tomb raider movie," Festy agrees, "Far as I can remember its a key to time travel, so if you can figure out how to use it you'll have just about infinite power. That said keep it out of Raistlin's sight or he'll want it."

 

[ThoughtBubble]

"Time travel?" Daniel says in response to Festy. "That's a headache waiting to happen." He slips it back into his jacket pocket, promising himself he'll look at it later.

"Vivi, if you'd like to wait for them to explain, that's fine," Daniel says, buttnig into a conversation that wasn't really his.

Then, Daniel does his best to keep up with Mario. "It's just that things aren't happening like they normally are. The rules of reality aren't applying as I remember and expect them to. There are only a couple of ways that can happen. Either a new part of the rules is coming into play, the rules are breaking, or this isn't reality, but something that mostly seems like it. I'd tend to go with the third, but it's just personal preference. And the reason I think this is one of my dreams is that I remember dreams like this, and I'm pretty sure I'm a sentient being. I can only be sure that you folks seem like it. Then again, that's all the basis I have in reality for assuming everyone else has conciousness."

"In the end though, it doesn't really matter if it is my dream or not. Because either way, all I can do is try to figure out what the rules are and what the relationships seem to be, and do my best to react to them. Just like this is real life." Daniel places heavy emphasis on the last sentence and shrugs.

"So it's not that I'm crazy, or that I'm trying to impose my worldview on ya'll, just that it's less freaky that Sub-Zero, Saruman, and a Sailor Moon gender changing wand are in my dreams as opposed to reality is taking these things on."

"Oh, Jemal. If this was a dream, you'd be the craving to go kick some butt. And if you were a reperesentive of that, being forced into female form just meant that I know I should be kicking more butt myself."

 

[Jemal]

Jemal looks at Daniel, opening his mouth to speak, then closing it, openign it again, and finally turning to face daniel directly. "Well, I guess the only thing I can say to that is 'ME CRUSH'."

 

[KitanaVorr]

"You have a crush on Daniel now, Jemal?" Hanh asked with a smirk as she hopped out into the snow. Her feet sunk deeply, leaving little holes wherever she went. And go she did, running ahead of everyone with her arms out, her feet stomping into the white, and her long black hair flying behind her.

"Wheeee!" she called out ethusiastically.

Vivi hurried along, intermittantly waiting and moving with the group. "Come come..." the black mage muttered as the group trudged along in the cold.

And yes indeed, Wille was feeling chilly.

Finally the group reached McGraw tower, the light from upstairs reaching them. The door stood lonely, absent of the big bug bear that greeted them earlier. Vivi uttered a few words and it flew open to admit them up the winding staircase that led to the wizard's tower.

 

[Sixchan]

"Time travel, eh? Well, it wasn't what I was thinking of, but its still cool nonetheless." Six looks up at the tower. "Oh yeah...weren't we supposed to take that wand to Harry?" She looks over to Rom. "Someone's gonna catch hell!"

 

[ThoughtBubble]

During the walk, Daniel smiles, and pretends he's not cold as all heck. During the walk, he's muttering to himself over, and over. If anyone listened closely, they would have heard It's an honor. I've admired your work since childhood." Seeing the tower seems to shake him out of his daze, and he looks around once, taking a deep breath.

"Hey, Vivi? Truth be told, I'm really scared about this. Are these other wizards very mean? Is there somethin I shouldn't say, lest I be turned into a toad?"

Daniel shakes his head at Six's comment, trying not to grin in amusement. As he does, he catches a glimpse of Six, and seems to realize something. "Yo, Six, sorry I didn't think of this earlier, but I'm willing to loan you my jacket if you're willing to accept it. It's cold out and I've at least got pants." As soon as the words are out of his mouth, he prepares himself to get railed on by Jemal, Six, and Hanh.

 

[Dalamar]

"Damn, this thing doesn't have heat insulation. Unless I have to do something to activate it."
Wille tries concentrating on the suit and driving off the cold.
