    "Lady Tamoko, are you by any chance familiar with S&M? Er... uh... I of course have no idea what it is... ahem."

    I was thinking the cellar would be a single room. If it isn't, yes, let's clear the ground level before going up or down stairs.

    As soon as you set foot on the stairs, a scream, like a damned soul screaming in agony, wafts up the stairs. Yoshino runs like a girl. So do Minsc, Kivan and Tamoko. Only Mazzy is unaffected (having made her save).

    OOC LOL...

    Tamoko just stares blankly at Kivan...though she does give her whip a couple twitches, to and fro.

    "I changed my mind! Let's clear the rest of this leveeeellll!!" as Yoshimo flees from the staircase.

    After exiting the room like your asses were on fire, the general question is... "Holy F***ing C**p! What in the Nine Hells was THAT?"

    I'll use my incredible wisdom to determine if that was an actual scream or just some kinda spell. Fear spell or something. Because screams of agony usually DRAW tamoko to their source, not have her flee from them.

    "All those in favor of clearing the rest of the house before going down there?" Yoshimo asks.

    Milo looks kind of like this now:

    "Yes, lets not go there yet... Not that I'm scared or anything."
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    Tamoko is conflicted...but she'll follow the others if they're determined to flee like children.

    Honestly, you are not certain. You're finding it hard to even *want* to go back in the room.

    OOC I'm guessing that whatever is causing the disturbance is down in some network of tunnels or sunken streets or something accessible from that basement. We could make sure there's nothing else in here and then proceed downstairs.
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    OCC Or upstairs---there are some stairs leading up I believe.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    OOC Also true, but it's hard to imagine ghosts lounging about in the master bedroom, you know?
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay. Where to?
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    "Perhaps west of the front entrance instead of my all too tempting northern route?"
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Yoshimo looks at the rest of the group. "I have no preference as to upstairs, down, or remaining on this level. I will follow your consensus. If one cannot be reached, we could go back into a dryer room to rest, recuperate, discuss our options, and be ready to assault this place anew tomorrow."

    I'll run straight in the direction of the scream, sword in hand.

    OOC BTW I'm back :)

    OOC: Unbeknownst to Mazzy, Tamoko has tied both of her feet together while she was...day dreaming. Thus, her first step sends her head first down the stairs...and to her dooooooooom.

    aka welcome back.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @minevese It's dark down there and you have no light. And everyone else ran...
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    OOC Isn't doom Xan's specialty? :)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    The Western hallway has two doorways almost parallel at about 15'-18' down the corridor, the closest door to the north, the other to the south, and a doorway at the end of the hall at about 22' to the west.
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    OCC: If I'm leading, Tamoko is dead, so someone please lead...Poor, naked Shar-Teel. Enough said.

  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    well in this case, I run behind the fleeing group, protecting their backs against anything that may be following...

    OOC better? :)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Looks like it's Mazzy's turn to lead. None of her companions want to re-enter that room and hear that scream again...
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Much. :) Better to stay together, I think.
  • mlnevesemlnevese Member, Moderator Posts: 10,214
    Ok I'll go first, sword in hand.
