Larris Human Fighter

Larris continues to swim strongly downward following the others. His thoughts are a tangle of fear and wonder. What will happen if I die again? Back to the lines? Something worse? Where were we going if that demon hadn't acted?

OOC: Swim check 13+5=18

Do I need to make checks if I'm ethereal?[/sblock]
 

Noticing that he is currently underwater and sinking, Ganshinji thinks about his belly button and getting naked. He seeks out Adauth's form and begins to follow after divesting himself of his clothes and items.

Hopefully, someone can locate air.


Swim Check

Why is it that "common sense" seems to be the rarest thing in this world? I suppose I should try to follow them, if only to keep them out of trouble.
Wha? A new person? "Greetings and well met. I am Kal and you are...?"

Vargo, Ory, and Kalador ONLY:

[sblock]The shape of the figure before you seems to fuzz out for a moment, becoming horribly blurred and disparate as if it were exploding from the inside. While you do not know why, you get the intense and undeniable impression that the figure is concerned or intensely troubled by something. Then, in the blink of an eye, it appears next to the open doorway, and then is back beside you. It's expression has not changed in any manner, other than the aforementioned blurring. Then, it vanishes completely, as quickly and quietly as it came...[/sblock]

Nebiros ONLY:

[sblock]OOC: No Swim checks needed... Also, before you act on the info below, please let me post my reply to the other character's stated actions.

As you glide towards the "cave", you notice a large form partially concealed in the dark, swirling etheral muck by the shimmering, fuzzy shapes of the living plant matter all around you. The thing is long and fish-like, but is altogether unlike any fish that you have ever seen or heard tell about. Long filaments sprout from its massive, finned, dark body, each trailing a shining light that seems to pierce the ethereal curtain, as it seems far dimmer here. You have no doubt that this creature's light is that towards which the bulk of the characters are moving...[/sblock]
 

ALL BUT Vargo, Ory, and Kalador:

[sblock]
Airole, you appear and quickly sinking into what seems to be a "cave" formed of tightly woven and interconnected sea weed and water plants of some sort (see link). While there is very little light, there seems to be some light source coming from somewhere, highlighting the "walls" and "ceiling" of this watery cave. Beneath you, you see several of those with which you rode the train, many of them now unclothed again, swimming furiously towards the cave and the light it possesses.

All manage to continue moving through the water, though many (Jalen, Hume, Milo, and Ganshinji) are still having difficulty. Instantly, several of those around you lose their clothing, equipment, or steeds, opting instead for the forms with which they were born and they continue swimming quickly towards the “cave” below them. Ganshinji notices that Adauth, now clothed in his swimming gear, motions for him to follow…
[/sblock]


Milo ONLY:
[sblock]
Milo swims into the tunnel and notices that Roth is now swimming upwards, towards what seems to be the source of the light within this “cave”. He is very close to the light at this moment and swimming hard.
[/sblock]


Roth ONLY:
[sblock]
Above you is a shimmering light, like sunlight on the surface of a stream.
[/sblock]


Larris and Ganshinji ONLY:
[sblock]
Upon entering the “cave”, you both notice a smaller, side “passage” in the waving fronds of plant-life. You think you see stone beyond.
[/sblock]


Adauth ONLY:
[sblock]
The water does not hamper your auras as they were, but you cannot use them in other manners until you can speak again…
[/sblock]

OOC: If anyone wants to assist someone with swimming, merely state what you are trying to do, make an additional Swim check and I will let you know if you are successful or not…

For those of you actively swimming (Swim checks, please), you were able to move your max base speed. For those who were not actively swimming, you move less than your base speed as you sink downward, For everyone but Roth and Airole, you have been underwater for two rounds (i.e. in terms of tracking info for possible drowning, etc...), Roth you have been underwater for three rounds, Airole, one round.
