    "Lets toss a torch in there."

    Yoshimo backs away slowly at first, then faster. "The bin is full of those grub things." He explains. "I suggest we leave them to their rubbish and newly barbecued corpse and resume clearing the ground floor."

    Yoshimo puts a hand on each of Mazzy and Minsc's shoulders. "Come," he urges. "There is nothing to be done for the dead man, and with no healing available to us--easily--" he glances at Tamoko, "assaulting a bin full of killer worms would mean death for us all. Though, this puts new light on the sensation of fear left at the door. Perhaps it was a ward, meant to protect anyone who would follow from encountering the grubs."

    "Which would mean the dead man had at least one companion who is still living--or was, anyway."

    Looks at Yoshimo and snears.

    "You jump to many conclusions baselessly in your hurry to be away from these worms. However I do agree with you in one matter, that we have wasted enough time in this cellar."

    Edwin wraps his robes closer around himself and heads up the stairs.

    OOC: And nobody wants the armor? If that's the case...
    Removing the majority of its former occupant from it, Tamoko strips off her studded leather armor (to the great delight of the leering Kivan) and places the platemail on in its place.

    @LadyRhian I might be mistaken, but isn't Sune all about outward appearances and lust and all that fun stuff?

    Yoshimo heads upstairs hopefully with Mazzy and Minsc behind him. If Kivan is still upright, hopefully, he will follow.

    *Kivan takes what's left of his wine and bottle, places a rag inside with one end sticking out, and lights the end on fire. He then tosses his molotov cocktail into the trash bin before following his companions. He also likes his spiffy new shield.*

    Will wine work for a molotov cocktail?? I thought it had to be pretty potent hard liquor.

    Lets just say the wine in that cellar is unusually potent.

    But yes, you're correct. Typical wine with 11-14% alcohol will not ignite. Even spirits with 40% will not light, only the vapor will. Rubbing alcohol with 99% will light. I was just taking some rp license with that one.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Yeah, no. Wine has too much water in it to work. You want lantern/lamp oil or the aforementioned hard liquor. White Lightning, if you can get it. And Kivan? The wine bottle in his pack was the only intact bottle left in the cellar. Just sayin'.

    @LadyRhian Besides Tamoko's bottle full of glass shards, that is.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Okay, so everybody goes back up into the scullery, then probably back into the kitchen, yes? There's the door leading the way we came and the pretty busted stairs up to the second level. I'd rather fully explore the downstairs before moving up. I'd also prefer to find some stairs less likely to crumble at a touch.

    Technically what happens in this video isn't possible either. Jack will not light on fire like that. Only the vapor will ignite, with a barely visible reddish flame. Thomas Jane is soooo awesome btw.

    Okay. You have explored pretty much all of the northern part of the lower section of the house. Now, you can choose east or west. Or Go up the stairs in the kitchen.
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Raises an eyebrow and looks at Yoshimo.

    "Very well, you seem to have taken over the leadership of the party for the time being, I look forward to seeing how well you do."
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    East. Why not?
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    Tamoko is enjoying the fit of her shiny 'new' platemail...though it is a tad constricting in the chest department. Oho.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    "You want me to lead? Have you been hit in the head with a rock?" Yoshimo sighs. "If you and your vastly superior intellect would prefer to lead, Thayan, by all means, sally forth."
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    "I would not deem to lead so intellectually unfit a force as this one, and must admit that I derive a bit of pleasure watching others attempts."
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    "Enjoy it all you wish, but make yourself useful in the meanwhile." Yoshimo heads down the eastern hallway, alert for traps, grubs, ghosts, or locked doors.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Actually, the platemail seems to become less constricting by the moment. Is it actually conforming to her? Interesting...

    Okay, to the east, there are two doors. One at about 10' from under the staircase, the other about 25' or so from under the staircase. The hallway dead-ends about 7 or 8' further on.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    I'll stop at the first door and check it for traps or locks. I'll disarm the former, unlock the latter, and before I open the door, I'll listen to see if I hear anything hostile moving about.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay.... You find no traps on the door, and it isn't locked. Nor do you hear anything. When you open the door, you see a bare room that has long been stripped of all furniture. There is a fireplace on the western wall, and the only thing of note is the circle of tiny reddish mushrooms growing out of the wooden floor in a rough semicircle around the open fireplace.
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Edwin begins to gather up the mushrooms and put them in a pouch.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Yoshimo enters the room and looks at the mushrooms from a slightly closer vantage point. "Any idea what kind of mushrooms these are? Kivan? Minsc?"

    "I know what these are. They cause hallucinations when ingested. Perhaps we should eat some in an attempt to forget the situation we are in?"

    OOC: Sorry I stopped posting, went for dinner and got sidetracked.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Communard Quite okay.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Yoshimo checks out the fireplace since Edwin has already apparently gathered all the mushrooms to use during "private time."
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Lots of soot... and a loose stone about three feet up inside.
