Jikan: Adventure!

-==START==-
The bridge sways slightly in the breeze.
It doesn't look that sturdy, but it should hold up.
Jikan
He puts a foot on it and presses down.
silverleaf2431
It shifts a bit under your weight, but the rope holds strong.
Jikan
He searches the water really hard.

(1d20+3) [5+3] : {8}
silverleaf2431
You notice nothing out of the ordinary in the briney depths below.
Jikan
Jikan stops onto the bridge
silverleaf2431
It shifts a bit more, but nothing that sounds like it would break.
Jikan
How far up is the bridge?
silverleaf2431
You're pretty high up.
Jikan
Jikan cuts the bridge ropes.
silverleaf2431
The water swirls beneath you, threatening to swallow you whole if you misstep
With?
Jikan
He's going to hold on and then swing to the otherside with the bridge.
It made sense in his head.
silverleaf2431
You might not be high enough to do that
ⓘ silverleaf2431 is now known as theDM
theDM
You begin slicing into the rope with your shuriken
You get the feeling this might not be the best idea, but it just might work.
Jikan
Let's hope for the best.
theDM
Roll Luck
Jikan
!roll 1d20
Tyche[Dice]
(1d20) [9] : {9}
theDM
You cut through the rope, and the bridge starts to fall.
The water gets closer and closer, coming far too close for comfort before it starts to swing.
Jikan
Jikan does not understand physics.
He gets ready to jump.
ACROBATIC PIROUETTE
theDM
Roll Acrobatics to hold on
Or don't
Jikan
!roll 1d20+6 TO CLEAR THE DISTANCE
theDM
You near the bottom of the curve when you see the water moving
Tyche[Dice]
(1d20+6) [10+6] : {16}
theDM
That's not the current...
As you jump, a massive tentacle rushes out of the water and grabs your rope, flinging you further forward.
Roll Luck again.
Jikan
!roll 1d20
Tyche[Dice]
(1d20) [20] : {20}
theDM
Somehow, against all odds, you arc forward and upward enough to land safely on the ground on the other side.
Jikan
YES.
YES.
YES.
JIKAN NEVER GO ON BRIDGE EVER AGAIN
theDM
The tentacle retreats back beneath the surface, but you have a feeling it'll be back.
Jikan
He throws a shuriken at it.
theDM
THERE IS NO BRIDGE TO GO BACK ON JIKAN
Roll to hit
Jikan
"Come back and face Jikan like tentacle monster!"
!roll 1d20+7
Tyche[Dice]
(1d20+7) [13+7] : {20}
theDM
Your shuriken slices into the tentacle as it sinks below the waves.
You have a feeling you'll see it again one day.
Jikan
That is right.
Run away from Jikan.
He defeats physics themselves.
Now that he's stranded, he turns to find a large group of Japanese people clapping and cheering his name.
They give him flowers.
theDM
That does not happen
Sadly
Instead, you see a small crab village a little bit away.
Jikan
Jikan makes the trek.
theDM
You make your way to the crab village, but something feels off.
Jikan
Off like a tentacle monster?
theDM
Roll Perception
Jikan
!roll 1d20+3
Tyche[Dice]
(1d20+3) [11+3] : {14}
theDM
You notice a large structure in the center of town.
It looks familiar, except not.
It takes you a minute to remember, but it looks like the beacon from the other town!
Except... there's no beacon of light coming from it
Jikan
He youth rolls over behind a house, stealhing and looking around.
theDM
Roll Stealth
Jikan
!roll 1d20+6
Tyche[Dice]
(1d20+6) [11+6] : {17}
theDM
You successfully sneak through the houses without being noticed by any crabs.
Jikan
He ghosts into the Beacon Tower.
theDM
You make it there unhindered.
Jikan
When he walks in, what does he see?
theDM
Inside, there is a distinct lack of glowing beacon power source.
There are several of the mirrors you remember missing as well.
Jikan
No Mercy.
He searches!

<silverleaf2431> Where do you search?
<Jikan> Up the tower.

<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+8) [19+8] : {27}
<silverleaf2431> You climb your way to the top of the tower as if you've climbed it before.
<silverleaf2431> Which
<silverleaf2431> You kind of have?
<silverleaf2431> It's really similar to the other tower, actually.
<silverleaf2431> It's almost the same.
<silverleaf2431> Roll Perception
<Jikan> You say almost.
<Jikan> What are the differen-
<Jikan> !roll 1d20+3
<Tyche[Dice]> (1d20+3) [5+3] : {8}
<silverleaf2431> You notice the mirrors are in different places, opening up the beacon's place to the sky.
<silverleaf2431> Other than that, you don't see anything suspicious
