Back to the Future II, Track II - No McFly's here Options

[Lady Door]

I'd like to keep exploring the Citadel. This is an unexplored kaer, who knows what kind of knowledge may be stored within these walls. Besides, all we know is that there are a few that may have the intelligence to open the doors. If we let them all out, who knows what kind of damage they could wreak on the small towns around here.... the ones that aren't empty and devoid of all life, that is... Morgana sighs sadly.

[ludomastro]

Concern crosses Alexander's face. Are you alright Morgana? He seems lost for a moment and then says, I have no objection to continue exploring ... I just like having options.

Boy, don't forget that you can't watch two fires at once. Be sure that one is safe before moving on.

I know, I know....

[Lady Door]

I'm fine. Why don't we explore what we can here. There might be an answer to our shadow riddle. Morgana moves deeper into the Citadel, heading for the other tower.

[fistandantilus4....]

Moving across to the other tower stairs, the small group finds the same general setup. There is a door, closed but not locked. The stairs go up. There is a door to the second level, and a third entering the tower room it's self.

[ludomastro]

Alexander glances at Ralo giving him a nod and mouthing "wizards". He then heads after Morgana.

[Lady Door]

A HA HAA! Not again! I'm getting so tired of casting that spell. Ergh. Morgana wearily inspects the door.
Go figure, same lock. Joy. Master, hear my call. Grant me my wish... a single solitary stick of C4.... *sigh*

[fistandantilus4....]

Sadly ... no call is heard.. .and no spirit appears happily carrying a hand full of commercial grade explosives .... pity.

[Grinder]

I'm also eager to explore the whole citadel. Where's the point in entering one and leave, with only a handful of rooms searched?

[Lady Door]

Sighing, Morgana begins to weave Shatter Lock.

[Grinder]

She used me as a mixture of clown and chewing toy and complains when she has to weave a couple fucking threads?

Ralo rolls his eyes and lands on Alex shoulder. Wonder how many dogs will be around here - and how long Morgana can control them... he whispers.

[fistandantilus4....]

Morgana shatters the lock quickly enough, which swing oen to reveal another room, very similar in design to the one that the mutlitude of hounds came out of. There are no hounds here however. The room looks a combination of alchemical lab, and kitchen.
Opposite them are two doors, most likely leading to the first room with the hounds, perhaps with a halleay between.

[Lady Door]

Alchemical lab? Really? Morgana perks up and heads into the room.

[fistandantilus4....]

Of course, over the course of hundreds of years, all of the chemicals have evaporated.

[Lady Door]

Stupid evaporation. Morgana heads back out of the room, giving it one last look over for anything interesting she may have missed.
(Books, potion bottles - even empty ones, etc. )

[fistandantilus4....]

There are a noubmer of broken glass beakers. Any books left out here would have rotted. There's also a considerable amount of dog excrement.

[Grinder]

Morgana, what are you gonna to find here? Dog shit and rotten books?

Ralo grins, while staying out of Morganas reach.

[Lady Door]

Yep, veritable treasure trove. We're moving on, gentlemen. Morgana heads up the stairs.

[Grinder]

Whatever you say, dear lady.

[fistandantilus4....]

Once again, another heavy metal door blocks the top tower room.

[Lady Door]

Oh, will the fun never cease. *sigh*
Morgana casts Shatter Lock again.

[fistandantilus4....]

The lock shatters. The room on the other side apperas to be a bedroom. It's hard to tell since everything is completely rotted. Apparently the wizard only really cared about protecting his books against time. A true wizard. Skeleton lies in what they can only assume was once a bed.

[Lady Door]

A skeleton? Strange. Morgana stays out of the bedroom and searches the bedroom using the still active Astral Sight spell.

[fistandantilus4....]

There is most definetely residual energies here, especially arond the skeleton.

[Grinder]

You wonder about a dead person? I guess he's the Wizard whose lab and library we found.

[Callidus]

Dark Cave.... with Gargoyle

Starting from the gargoyle, Michael begins to lever himself to his feet until the pain in his right arm buckles it from underhim.

Frak! If I'm insane and hallucinating I could have at least hallucinated that I wasn't injured.... That's a very small gargoyle.... and friendly.... so far.... odd

Erm.... Hello? Out of here? Right.... one second.... erm, where are we?

Staring blindly into the darkness and seeing nothing, Michael pulls his commlink out and tapping a couple of buttons tries to active the lowlight and thermographic functions of his contacts and takes another looks around for exits.

Rolls and Intentions

[ Spoiler ]

Hoping that the commlink and contacts still have power and wishing he still had his medkit *8->

Perception unaided: Intuition 4 + Observing in Detail 3 - Defaulting 1 - Darkness mods ? - Wounds 2: 3 1 2 3 = 0 hits, probably glitch... d'oh

Perception with commlink up after first search: Intuition 4 + Observing in Detail 3 + Vision Enhancement 3 - Defaulting 1 - Darkness mods ? - Wounds 2: 1 1 6 1 6 2 5 = 3 hits - ones lost for darkness.
