Shackled City - Chapter II

[Majin]

Orpheus detects heavy illusion auras all around the stage and its characters, further proven by the fact that as Zeric gets up on stage the cast of characters playing out their roles do not seem to notice him, the dancing gnomes moving right through him as the move about on stage.

 

[hippocrachus]

Orpheus just sighs in acquiescence as Zeric climbs the stage and moves about amongst the ghostly illusions.
For someone so hasty, he certainly doesn't mind screwing around with "mirrors" and what-have-you...
He stands back against one of the pillars, letting the others search the room; not feeling his abilities would lend any aide.

Alinis smiles at the clever little play and Zeric moving among them, a giant against so small creatures. "Well, this is certainly diverting, but perhaps we should move on?" she looks at her companions.

 

[Manzanita]

RAven

Dhes hasn't been around for awhile, & I'm not sure what room we're in.

Satisfied the gnomes present no danger, Raven creeps around the room, looking for anything interesting.

 

[Dhes]

“What’s up with you people, can’t you take the time to enjoy a marvel like this. You have any idea how hard it is to create something like this.” Mumbling under his breath Elyas hastily scribbles in his book. “Really your, always so on edge.”

 

[Majin]

OoC: Verbatim has informed me that he is once again cut off from the forums at work but things should be back to normal for him quicker than before as he expects to have his net connection at home up sometime this weekend most likely.

(Zeric's action was to examine the stage further to look for a sort of backstage area or other additions.)

Searching the stage area Zeric is unable to find an entrance to any sort of back stage area, but does notice a trapdoor in the middle of the stage towards the back. This is most likely where any stage equipment would be stored.

 

[Manzanita]

Raven

Having inspected the room, Raven moves to the stage.

"Nice find there, Zeric. Let's have a look under there."

She will inspect it briefly for traps, then try to open the trapdoor.

 

[kirinke]

Alinis grins at Elyas. "I have a fair idea of how hard it is to create an illusion this intricent. Both my parents were sorcerers." she said. "But exploring this place and finding those children take precedence," she pats him on his shoulder. "Don't worry. We'll note it down and if we survive, we'll come back and enjoy it."

 

[Mimic]

Althron will get up on stage and keep a watchfull eye on the "illusions" as Raven and Zeric open the trapdoor.

 

[hippocrachus]

Orpheus just leans against the wall and enjoys the show.
