IG's Legend of The Ripper [IC]

[industrygothica]

I'd still certainly enjoy playing (I apologize for not showing up this week, but I'm getting married in two weeks, and I had to run around during most of my free time and get things accomplished). I think the game is interesting and has a good creepy atmosphere. I'm not concerned about the slow pace, because heaven knows the game I'm running is going nearly as slowly, but it's not dead yet!

If we did keep it going we'd have to recruit at least two more players first, since Autumn is apparently out as well. If you guys still want to try, I'm game.

(In that case... bring on the new recruits!)

Rayel picks up the two unlabeled jars, wondering if the old man had a few useful things amongst all the junk. These could be the tag-ends of various substances, mixed together... or they might have been successful potions. Certainly the man had had a few good scrolls amidst the junk, so perhaps these would be useful too. Rayel put them aside for the moment and picked up the dagger.

Curious at the single eye socket on the hilt, she rubbed it with her thumb, wondering if the eye socket was just plugged with something, or if it had been carved that way.

As Rayel investigates the various jars, Rexy examines the chamber's walls, poking and prodding them with her blade.

Rayel thinks that the jars might be potions, but isn't really sure. The knife is of fine craftsmanship, the skull carved of real bone.

Rexy doesn't find anything of interest in or on the walls.

[sblock]I guess I wasn't clear in the description (or rather the book wasn't; I just copied it). The skull was actually a real skull, separate from the knife. However, as it is really insignificant and just there for flavor, I rolled with it, and now it is part of the knife. [/sblock]

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

"Strange..." Rayel mutters, and with only a little trepidation, wraps the knife and "potions" in some cloth in her backpack for transport. "Though no stranger than anything else. Dacen, I think these might be real potions, but I thought I'd just put them somewhere safe for now until someone has a chance to look them over properly. Um... we probably should destroy the diagram, I think. I just want to do it without accidentally making things worse."

OOC: [sblock]Does Rayel know if there's a "safe" way to unmake a diagram like that? Erase it widdershins, burn it, wash it away, "uncast" it, or anything?[/sblock]

Nope.

[sblock=OOC] Running out of time today, maybe tonight or tomorrow before I can get a new recruitment thread up... unless one of you want to take care of it before then. [/sblock]

Rexy shrugs at not having found anything. "I guess that means we have to go through the dark room?"

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Rayel shudders, but nods. "Yes, I guess we do," she says softly. She'll wait for the others to preceed her, intending to bring up the rear, or close to it.

 

[industrygothica]

Are you still planning on destroying the pentagram?

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Not right now, I think. Maybe when we might know a little more about it. For now, onward!

Also: [sblock]While no one's looking at her, Rayel would like to taste the air both in the "lab" and in the corridor leading to the red mist. (She had the scent ability right now due to her serpent tongue invocation.)[/sblock]
