Up from the Dust: IC

[Ashy]

Vargo (who never conjured his equipment in the first place) pulls himself upright, then shakes himself as dry as he can. He then pats himself down (once again as best he can) and squeezes as much water out of his hair as he can. Only then does he twiddle his belly button to summon his equipment.

(Assuming that time continues to pass without major events)

"Does anybody have any fuel? Some dead wood would be a great help over here!"

Knowing he will still be wet after this treatment, he pulls forth a tindertwig and a flask of lamp oil from his pack, finds a niche to pour the oil on, and lights it - a poor source of heat, but a start. He then pulls out his winter clothing and his blanket, dries himself with the blanket, then puts on his winter clothing.

Soon, the combination of your meager fire and your systematic drying process has you nearly dry and far warmer than you were before...your stomach rumbles loudly.

Vargo can be heard mumbling "Right, the next time I die, I'll pack some food with me." He then slaps his forehead.

 

[Komodo]

The rectangle of water collapses and Nebiros appears on the ground beside it. "Well, what happened?" asks the imp. He wraps his wings around his tiny torso, hunches his shoulders, and begins to shiver. "Hells, it's cold." Nebiros hobbles over to the fire and sighs in relief.

At Airole's gasp he spreads his wings and flutters to the edge. His eyes open widely at the sight of the city and he murmurs, "Huh...Get back here, boy!" He zips over to Wato and grabs him by the shoulder.

 

[Vendetta]

"Well heck..." Wayne says to himsefl, shivering. "s'about the only thing around here." He mutters to himself and heads toward the strange building hoping for the chance to get warm.

At Airole's gasp he spreads his wings and flutters to the edge. His eyes open widely at the sight of the city and he murmurs, "Huh...Get back here, boy!" He zips over to Wato and grabs him by the shoulder.

At Nebiros touch on his shoulder, lost in thought about a soup and fire, he grab the Imp's hand and quite agressive and anoyed takes it of his shoulder. "n-n-nee-d-d to w-w-arm up!" he continues walking shaking and swearing as he goes "w-w-hat a f***ing a-a-affff t-ter dead-d-d day!" he tries to calm down the shivering making it to say "Nebrios cant you fly over there and take a look?"

I can only hope that whatever is in that building is friendly...

Kal gets up and begins cautiously making his way towards the building in the distance.

Larris Human Fighter

Larris dresses in his heavier armor and a cloak. He seems positively distraught at the condition of his fine suit of leather armor and does his best to dry it over the meager fire. Looking at his bedraggled compainions he takes out 2 extra winter blankets and offers them to any who wants one. He takes out some rations and offers them around adding the wrappings to the fire. Once he gets himself sorted out he looks at those still sharing the fire. "Shall we join the others in exploring the strange building?"

 

[Kelleris]

"I'll take one of those," says Adauth, walking over to Larris and taking one of the proffered blankets. He wills away the suddenly-inappropriate swimming gear and huddles before the makeshift fire to think for a moment. He begins to be irritated.

Calling out to the people straggling toward the shrine in the distance, Adauth says, "hold on there, people. I need a few minutes to clear my mind and retrieve my spells. After that I can try a little magical scrying of the shrine before we start wandering into another trap. And after that, I suggest we have a talk about our respective talents and take a small team of those trained in stealth and reconaissance to investigate. In any case, we should be acting as a group."

Especially given those things that are chasing us....

Adauth sneezes loudly, and wipes his nose with the back of his hand afterward.

Ashy: [sblock] Regardless of how they respond, Adauth will take 15 minutes to regain his spell slots for the day. Once he's done that, he'll get close enough - stealthy-like - to use clairaudience/clairvoyance, once for an overhead perspective of the area and once to try to get a look inside the main area of the shrine itself.[/sblock]

Wato

Looking at his bedraggled compainions he takes out 2 extra winter blankets and offers them to any who wants one.

Wato follows his stepps back to Larris taking on of the blanckets. "T-t-than-n-nks... man"
he piches the bellybuttom making his clothes disapear leaving just the boots and the winterblancket.

"Calling out to the people straggling toward the shrine in the distance, Adauth says, "hold on there, people. I need a few minutes to clear my mind and retrieve my spells. After that I can try a little magical scrying of the shrine before we start wandering into another trap.

"Ok ok I'm not going to disturb anything more today" "I will walk up to the wall and use my ears to maybe hear something and wait for you"

Larris Human Fighter

Passing over the blanket, Larris nods to Adauth, glad to hear the voice of reason in this time of post-mortum maddness. He hands the second blanket to Wato and says "you're welcome." He looks about for anything else that might be a good fuel for the fire.
