Bubsy 2

Mirror, Fox, Key

The boy quickly proved to be an enigma. If the fact that he was roaming through the sewers with a broken mech wasn't enough it seemed that the coin she offered, which she could find not discernible difference in from the local currency, seemed to change his attitude. Emma scratched her head as he apologized, but nodded, "Uh, don't worry about it." She said, more confused than anything.

The path ahead was lit by some form of magic- so the boy knew magic? An odd skill for someone living in the city. She accepted it though, having seen stranger things during her short time as a Traveler. As she followed him she felt a growing warmth in her pocket. She reached in, and found the source- Spook's compass, now radiating with warm light. It pointed down the hall, urging her away from the boy.

She would've kept following him- wanted to, even, he seemed to know the way far better then her, but she felt obligated to use the gift Spook had entrusted her. She called out to the boy in the mech, "Uh, wait up, there's... I've got another way," She said, holding up the compass for him to see. She did not wait for reply- she would trust Spook. She quickly moved down the dark passage, hoping for some escape from the sewer.

I feel like agent and I missed an important detail.

:x

@Hawlin

Was it the slithering eldritch abomination? Because that is a pretty big thing to miss :P

@Diggerton

That's fine I was hoping some one would soon.

(Also, I don't float, I slither snake/slug like lower body)

@Sophrus

Oh, alright, the picture threw me a little. I'll go ahead and edit it.

Okay, so I had Rose see Unyat, I hope that's alright. I was going to do something but I feel like we should probably get him into the group first and then I can figure out where I'm going with this.

Rose merely watched as the others went about looking over the area. She nodded enthusiastically as Victor suggested they visit the cottage, taking note of his not-so-friendly glare towards Luciel. Rose also took note of the fact that Gish did not pass on her warning to the boy who might have needed it the most, perhaps because the fish girl mistrusted her or perhaps because she didn't like Luciel. Rose shrugged to herself- if Gish wouldn't tell him, well, Rose would not either. Luciel, the forward thinker he was, elected to use his crossbow on the strange scarecrows in the feel. Rose would've advised against it but she quite frankly did not particularly care to. The bolt flew towards it, piercing it in the chest, but if it was alive it gave no indication. There was no visible reaction and it remained standing. "Well, perhaps they are just decorations? Maybe the owner of that cottage has a unique taste for lawn ornaments. Well, let's take a look." She suggested, trotting down the path, caring little for if the rest would follow.

She caught a whiff of something strange as she reached the base of the cavern. The statues, or something else? She wondered to herself. She moved to examine the scarecrow that was now pierced by Luciel's bolt. She raised her staff and gave it an exploratory prod. When it remained unmoving she approached it for a closer examination. What she first noticed was there was still no visible mechanism to explain how it was standing. She attempted to push it but it remained firm, even when she put all her strength against it. She pulled the bolt out of it next. A black liquid gushed from the wound, a foul smell emanating within. She collected a small amount of the liquid on her fingers- it was warm to the touch. She moved it to her nose, taking a whiff. It didn't smell evil per se, but it did smell disgusting. It was evidently the source of the cavern's smell. She shook the liquid off. What was more surprising was the fact that a small amount of straw soaked in the black liquid poked out from the wound. She plucked at it, and it became evident that under the statue's shell it was made of straw. She turned to the rest of the group, "They're scarecrows! I think... very strange scarecrows." She then noted to herself, Their composition is strange. They're made of straw but it's soaked in gunk... and their sturdiness is unexplainable. She shrugged. She wouldn't find her answers for now. She smelled something else, however...

It was then that the witch noticed the eldritch abomination that inhabited the field.

The creature slither along the ground, small fanged beasts skittering over its body. It was not the first of its kind Rose had seen, but it was certainly unexpected. Rose gave a cautious wave. "Uh, hi?" She said, not sure if the creature would be friendly- their like was fickle, sometimes they would tolerate humans, sometimes they wouldn't. Rose hoped it was the former but cautiously raised her staff, prepared for the latter.

EDIT: ... is uh... that gonna be a problem? Or are you just pointing it out for fun...

@agentmanatee

Just for fun. I just thought it was kind of funny- I cracked up both times I read.

|| The Endless Halls | A Dark Fantasy World | Accepting Characters||

I'm making my post right now but I feel the need to point this out.

"As for your hair, well every growing boy needs a good firm toussel every now and again eh?", he chuckled.

@agentmanatee

Victor is very creepy.

Cosmic horror is a day in the life for Rose.

|| The Endless Halls | A Dark Fantasy World | Accepting Characters||

So could someone also brief me on the scenario so if I'm accepted I know where to start with my character

@dragonmancer

@Sophrus
Rechonq described it a little but it's worth noting we have two different groups of players right now. There's the group with my witch character, a vampire, a fish person, and a chimera, which I just made the post for, and then there's a group with a gargoyle, a spider lady, a cursed knight, and an orc. You guys can join either one.

Edit: Wow I made a bunch of typos.

|| The Endless Halls | A Dark Fantasy World | Accepting Characters||

@dragonmancer Sounds fine to me. We'll see what everyone else has to say before officially accepting you but no issue here.

@Sophrus I think you can go ahead an throw Unyat in the character tab and start posting.

Also, there's my post. I'm not really sure about how it turned out but hopefully my strange little cavern is at least semi-interesting.
