Detail question: what's the lighting condition like in the hallway? How (well) would we see the creature? Is there emergency lighting at least or is it pitch black, or just ambient light from a window?

Also, roughly how far away is it from our door, and is it blocking the only way out?

@AshganModest street lights from outside. The candles still lit inside the space where the therapy 'session' was. Cellphone lights. Other than that, there is no electricity in this particular building. You'd definitely see the creature, movement and silhouettes, but maybe not details of the flesh, eyes, or possible hair. And of course, you can hear it.

The emergency exit is at the opposite side of the hall, so it is not blocking a way out. It's no more than fifteen meters away from where the characters would exit the therapy session room.

Thanks!

Could I ask you to make a very rough sketch of the floorplan and position of entities? I think I've been picturing the layout wrongly. :x

@AshganHah, excuse my shitting drawing skills here. I'll pay more attention to this in the future, though.



White dots are characters.
Red dot is monster.
Triangles are elevators (out of order)
Emergency stairs next to them.

All right, thanks :D I did have it wrong by a little.

I guess I'll be making a post when I get home this evening.

Edit: If I am not too tired when I get there. :'D Didn't sleep last night. So you can see that I'm taking the RP thing seriously by living like my character does.

Edit 2: Time to save these ingrates and let Trish channel her inner paladin. Maybe if she'd lived in a different world, in a different time... :P

She had to have at least her head in the hallway to spot it around the corner.

I guess Poet can give a definitive answer, but way I understand it, it's in a straight hallway, that our door is perpendicular to, and it's fifteen meters away from our door. That's not something you spot from inside the room unless you peek out.

I mean, I can adjust my post so that she's inside the entire time, but I'm having some line of sight issues here. :P



Edit: I'm sorry, but I'm really super duper tired. I'll leave this detail pending for now, see if Poet adds his 2 cent at some point. Then, after catching up on the thread, I'll change this detail in my post tomorrow when I have a few spare minutes.

Sound okay? :)

What's the issue? The reading was alright to me. I liked it. Keep it this way.

There are always different perspectives and perceptions. It doesn't have to be pinpoint accurate.

All right, I guess I'll leave it as it is then.

Poet, I have one more question regarding the rules, namely this bit:

Opening Post

I'm wondering how strict you are on this. Clearly, the GM is in charge of the game world, as it were, but would it be allowed for a player to control a specific NPC they made up?

More to the point, the reason I'm asking is because I'm thinking that, if/when I write a scene where Trish is 'home', I'd like to write her friend who lives there as well because I have some very specific character dynamics in mind.

@AshganThe rule is for everything that I create. If you create your own NPC, then you control it. I should rephrase that rule. I'll look into doing that after work.

Damn, good thing you made your character take hold of the situation in the last 10 lines or so@Ashgan

By the way things were going, I guessed most of our characters would mentally break after the first boss encounter.

@Poet All right, cool. So it's basically like most RPs I've been in then; that rule could do with a light re-write. ^^

@Bishop That's why I rolled a whopping 8 willpower. Somebody has to keep their cool when things get dicey :P
