Tale Weaver's Vampire: The Masquerade Game Board

'Ransacked again..' Ruby thought to herself. She looked over at Lacey. "I'll check this room out.." The room was dark, perhaps things are hidden beneath the darkness. Eyes of the Beast She walked around the room and afterwards made her way to the bathroom just in case.

The building is a two story house that does have windows but there are absolutely no lights on at all. Every window is either concealed by curtains or completely black. With very little investigation it is obvious that Ruby and Lacey went in through the back door which has been kicked in.

Koln steps into the house first with his weapon drawn. As he does, he places his hand on the kicked-in door ((spirit's touch)) as he uses his heightened sense of eyesight to look around. Once he's sure it's clear he motions for Clover to follow him.

Clover and Koln found the way that Ruby and Lacey had taken into the house quite easily. Crouching close to the back door, Clover queried, "Do you really think it's a good idea for us to just barge in there after them? This is starting to seem like a dangerous situation. So it seems like it might be best to have less cooks invested in the kitchen, in this case, no?"
She waited, and when she saw an amused look light on Koln's face as he was (undoubtedly) imaging the four of them dressed up as cooks and running around a rather large kitchen filled with bloody delicacies, she hesitated, "Um... I mean, I know there's no convincing you Koln. Koln! Are you listening? I said, I mean there's really no convincing you, but it would seem to be the most prudent thing to wait it out and see if we could tell if Ruby and Lacey are in any kind of trouble, rather than barge in there and put all our chips on the table at once."
(Was that some image of a vampire poker game playing across his eyes?)
"I mean...! Oh heck. Let's just go." Grumpy and irritated, she strode confidently towards the back door and shoved it open.

Um... we'll just call it even, Mike.

The bathroom is in no better shape than the bedroom. The floor is covered in dirt and dust while a bit of mold is starting to creep its way up the walls. There is a broken medicine cabinet above an old sink that has one of it's doors hanging open.

While searching the bathroom you find a gold watch on the floor near the toilet and a bottle of pills in the medicine cabinet that says on the label 'Estrogen' and on the back there is a warning label that says 'Do Not Take If Male'.

Koln touches the door as Clover is talking to him seemingly spacing out.

You see an average looking family going in and out of the door. Eventually you get an image of the door in the middle of the night getting kicked by a person wearing some rather beat up dress shoes. You can't see the person who the foot belonged to. After that everything goes black.

Clover moves past Koln and shoves the door open. The door breaks off its hinges and goes crashing to the floor making a loud noise and sending splinters of wood all over the kitchen.

Lacey runs into the bedroom where Ruby is and whispers loudly so she can hear "Ruby I think there's someone here! Quick! Hide under the bed!" Lacey dives under the queen sized bed in the bedroom.

Soon after the loud crashing sound of the door Clover and Koln hear a shuffling noise in a room to their left. Ruby and Lacey hear a shuffling noise as well in a room next door to the bedroom.

I've marked where the noise is coming from on the map.

Koln awakens from his trance with a shock as his ears pick up the shuffling noise coming from the room to their left. He quietly walks to the side of the door to that room, crouches low and listens with his weapon drawn.

Ruby tilts her head to the side in confusion upon seeing the Estrogen bottle.

Lacey runs into the bedroom where Ruby is and whispers loudly so she can hear "Ruby I think there's someone here! Quick! Hide under the bed!" Lacey dives under the queen sized bed in the bedroom.

Ruby turns around and smirks, "nah, this is what we came for wasn't it? No time to be hiding, we have to end this now." She snatches the gold watch and puts it in her knitted satchel. She dips her head under the bed with her eyes glowing looking at Lacey. "Fine, I'll go alone then.."
She walks out the door and heads straight to the other upper room where the noises were heard.

Clover stared wide-eyed at the broken door, her arms held out in front of her suspended in mid-air, "Um... ah... totally meant to do that! Um, Koln? Don't tell Lacey. I'd never hear the end of it. Kay?"
She paused and quieted down as she suddenly heard the shuffling and was glad to see Koln already quietly creeping towards the noise. Her face dropped, 'Oh, ! Wonderful, the owners heard and are coming to investigate. Good going, Clover! You couldn't have done any worse if you had gone up to their bedroom window and banged on it asking if they were awake! Geez.'
Clenching her jaw, she snuck up next to Koln to place herself behind him (and his weapon). She pressed herself against the wall and waited with baited breath, eyes nervously on the door that she had broken, 'Really, I'm that strong? Ruby and Koln, maybe. But me?'

The noise sounds like someone walking slowly and clumsily towards the door.
