He and Harper work together to try to get Agnasci out.[sblock=Getting Agnasci out]Harper and Law's Roll: Strength 4 + Dexterity 7 - difficulty 2 = Success with 4 successesAgnasci is ferried across without incident[/sblock]Agnasci is dropped with a splash to the hall floor alongside the motionless BR. Harper tries climbing out next.[sblock=Getting into the hall]Harper's Roll: Dexterity 3 + Athletics 1 + good plan 1 - difficulty 2 = Success with 1 successHarper manages to get out without hurting himself[/sblock]Harper finally falls to the hall floor. Only the particularly obese biker is left in the bathroom. Moments after the three mages have made it back into the hall there's a terrible grinding sound and suddenly the torrent of water from the tub comes to a stop. Whatever ritual the bikers had been performing seems to have come to an end. Gravity remains reversed in the bathroom, but at least the flow of water has been stopped.Harper attends to BR, turning the man onto his back with a great amount of effort. Chance recognizes him as the one Mad Dog had threatened in her vision of the past. Peeking into the bathroom, she likewise recognizes the bald one - he was there with the other two when the dog was drowned. Harper checks to see if the do-rag-wearing biker is alive.[sblock=Checking BR]Harper's Roll: Intelligence 3 + Medicine 1 = Success with 1 successHarper thinks the man might not be beyond saving[/sblock]The biker was knocked out cold from his fall and has been face-down in the water. He's not breathing, but he's not dead yet. Harper begins CPR. Each roll to attempt to stabilize BR will take a minute of work. Should he continue emergency life-saving measures the results of the first roll will be posted at the end of the first minute of work.Chance casts Temporal Eddies and can immediately see a spell on Agnasci and a spell in the bathroom. She concentrates on the gravity-reversing spell, attempting to glean as much information as she can. It goes without saying that the spell is very advanced - even beyond its physics-bending effects its potency has been reinforced, perhaps to prevent it from being dispelled or unraveled by Sleeper witnesses. The spell is the apex of Forces magic, an arcanum none of the four have any level of mastery in, and was cast by an incredibly powerful mage (in mechanics terms, you can tell it was cast by someone with a much higher Gnosis than Chance - at least 5, if not higher). If Chance were ever to scrutinize the caster of this spell she'd be able to connect the two definitively.Law examines Agnasci's chains. He's been bound competently but nothing he couldn't potentially deal with. The two most obvious options are to have Chance try to pick the padlock holding them together or use death magic to degrade them like he did at the church. If he chooses to go with the latter he probably won't want to do it in the presence of sleepers. It might also be possible to simply help Agnasci wriggle out of them - he's been almost mummified in the chains but with a couple minutes or so of teamwork they'd probably be able to get him out.Harper, thanks to his empathetic connection to his familiar, is suddenly made aware that the fleeing biker has come to a stop in the middle of the street a few blocks away. Crow is sitting on a nearby bench watching him.It's been about thirty seconds since the rescuers arrived at the house.</blockquote>
