Chloe has connected.
Kaorin Sakura has connected.
Eclipse has connected.
Avara has connected.
Avara: 	hi
Chloe: 	helleow!
Kaorin Sakura: 	I am the here.
Eclipse: 	Greetings.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Right. I need to open a document.
Kaorin Sakura: 	You guys made it to the thing.
Kaorin Sakura: 	What's after Parasect?
Eclipse: 	Venonat.
Kaorin Sakura: 	Excellent.
Kaorin Sakura: 	I don't have help today. T_T
Kaorin Sakura: 	Anyone want to recap?
Kaorin Sakura: 	Date: February 26th, 1549. 0115 Hours, Thursday.
Eclipse: 	...I've remembered I still have to write that letter. Anyway, I believe I can do a recap.
DNA: 	After giving chase to the dudes, we notice some very interesting markings that go up into the trees, and then above the clouds. Trying to find a way to utilize this path without drawing attention - and also noticing that Chloe is as usual the Badass Normal - we take to the skies until we get to a castle(?) behind the clouds. It's early in the morning, but steady sleep schedules are for chumps.
DNA: 	We get ready to open the door to go in, and...
Kaorin Sakura: (( Dat lag. ))
Avara: 	*hugs everyone*
	Chronicler: 	Entering into the cloudflesh castle in the sky through its only discernable opening leads you into a long stretch of corridor. It has absolutely no light sources of any kind though a strange force permeates the air. Like a gloss of liquid slapped onto some unseeable surface with a translucent rainbow mist. It twists and flows slowly through the air, visible but not touchable, giving off just the faintest glow to illuminate the area with enough light to see. Any attempts to reach out and touch it causes you to reach through it, as if it were visible in this world but present in another.
DNA: 	Reach out and touch what: the mist?
	Chronicler: 	The corridor stretches forward a long ways, beyond 30-meters easily. Its floors, walls and ceilings are circular, ensuring no sharp corners of any kind and it seems to twist this way and that, like a tunnel dug by a perfectly circle massive worm that only had a vague sense of 'forward'.
	Chronicler: 	Yes, the mist.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"The door is open now, we can enter." Chloe said, taking the first step into the strange magic sky castle.
	Chronicler: 	The entire corridor pulses from time to time, like a heartbeat.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn follows quickly behind her, as she's already suspicious. Perception 3d6+2 ; Intuition 6d6+2 .
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe keeps an ear out for alarms or other signs of people watching. Perception
Chronicler whispers: Your ability to perceive your surroundings with sight is easily confused and misgiving. Overwhelmed by the sense that you stand in limbo between worlds. Your Life Sense, however, shows that not many individuals in your immediate area (30-meters) give off the voice of life.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: What is 'not many'? How many besides our party can Saturn sense?
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe walks forward, down the hallway until she starts seeing turns in either direction.
* Jennifer Attaway pursues the group diligently.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn keeps blinking a lot, her smaller eyes spinning in different directions. "Ow. I'm not used to this kind of place. Everything feels muddled when I look at it."
Chronicler whispers: Just roughly eight diminutive balls of life scattered throughout the corridor.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: Eight including us, or eight excluding us?
Chronicler whispers: Excluding.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"There's 8 Finch-sized creatures in this corridor, though..."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Interesting..."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"I can't see them."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Hmm..." Saturn takes a deep breath, clutching her head for balance.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe tries to look for the things Saturn mentioned Perception.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: Is it possible for Saturn to get a distance estimate of how far the 8 things are away from me?
Chronicler whispers: You pass them by as you walk. They appear to be incredibly tiny spheres of light. They have the voice of life but float slowly - aware of you but non-hostile.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"I think we're walking past them. They're like...really non-hostile tiny spheres of light."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	*non-hostile really tiny
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"I see scattered spheres of light, I'm not sure if they are living creatures."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"They are..."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"At least that's what my senses are telling me..."
	Chronicler: 	As you move forward about twenty-meters through the corridor you can it split into two directions about 12-meters beyond. The corridor curves both upward and downward, almost like shutes.
DNA: 	Chutes.
Chronicler: (( Many thanks! ))
DNA: 	No problem.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe tries to identify these glowing lights. Occult? Pokemon?
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Do you know what they are Jen? You seem to know a bit about everything."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn tries to see what lies down the chute corridors ahead. Maybe she could get a better idea of which path, if any, is a safer pick. Perception and Intuition .
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"I'll see if I can get a look."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	Perception.
Chloe is disconnected.
Chronicler whispers: Looking at it allows you to see that they both have airflow. Perhaps a sort of suction that would draw you in whichever direction you decide. But you can't see which is safer or what lies beyond.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: ...So like an air-based slip 'n' slide or something?
Chronicler whispers: Kinda sorta.
Chloe has connected.
Avara: 	internet, behave
Chloe: 	Jen's perception is the last thing I saw
DNA: 	Nothing else non-whisper based was said since then.
Avara: 	it's the last thing that happened
Avara: 	at least as far as i've seen
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"It's..." she hesitates, a little creeped the fuck out. "You know how Yamask are, supposedly... uh, human souls reborn? They're... it's kind of like that, but not. They're shadows of the dead. Something about this place... it might be the strange feeling and energy in the air, this sense of... limbo... or some experiment. Something is drawing spirits to manifest this way here."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"That makes me feel like this place is like a boundary between worlds or something."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"It might explain why I'm having trouble seeing straight..."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"It's... haunted?"
Avara: 	after all this time joking about people going to find and punch the reaper to revive a fallen PC, is it actually gonna happen?
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"I... think so. This place is really creepy..."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"If that's the case, we probably shouldn't stay in one place for very long. ...I looked ahead and I can feel like each of those paths has a minor suction to it, but...I can't tell anything beyond that, not from this distance."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"I'll follow where you lead."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"We have two chutes. Up and down."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"If they were deploying, they would come from the upward one, right? Because it's easier to slide down in whatever armor they have."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Probably. Unless they like to fight gravity."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"So down might be where we want to go first. But we don't know enough to know which to take yet."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe examined the chutes. What kind of scratches and scuffs are on them, if any. What signs of what slides down these are present? Perception
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"If we're preventing an attack, we'd want to go upstairs and say hello. Preferrably with our strongest attacks."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Or maybe sneakily, with a lot of sabotage."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"If they stay upstairs before deployment, anyway."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Hmm...what would they expect us to do?"
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"That'd be where the gear to suit up and load out would be, right?"
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"No signs of anything. Upward smells nicer, like perfume. While the lower one smells like fresh water."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Like...like perfume?"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"That might be where they come from, if they bother to keep it smelling like that. Which means the lower one could lead to a spring or river or something...
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"I still stand by what I said, but if you disagree we can go the other way."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"No, I agree with you. Freshwater smell doesn't tell or hint at a whole lot."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Lets go up. If anything, escaping downward is faster."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Heh, true."
* Jennifer Attaway will follow.
* Saturn Rosewell hops to the upper corridor.
Schloop!
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe goes in first! Probably.
	Chronicler: 	The chute makes a loud sucking noise as it inhales your whole group, single file. You grow slightly nauseous from the sudden force and change in altitude. You feel as though you went up several stories before you're spat onto a soft, malleable floor.
	Chronicler: 	Disoriented for a moment as the floor is curved much like the corridor, though the curve flows upward rather than downward you feel as though you're standing on some soft bubble that's strangely firm enough to support you. The room smells pleasant and sweet and you find it difficult to keep your wits about you here.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe stumbles on the bubble, slipping and falling on her face.
* Saturn Rosewell stops breathing as she rights herself after falling.
	Chronicler: 	Dulled and fuzzy, you struggle to maintain focus and the idea of carnal desires enticing.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	She eventually pushes herself upward.
	Alsine Kolstad: 	Alsine's eyes widen. "I hate this room. I hate it. Haaaaaaaate."
* Jennifer Attaway attempts to resist these desires!
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Focus 6d6+2 because I know you're going to ask for it !
	Chronicler: 	While in this area, you suffer a -5 penalty to resist checks made to infuence your disposition. You fail infatuation rolls on 6 or higher and suffer a -2 penalty to Save Checks.
Avara: 	oh god it's the room of morgan.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn looks towards Alsine, "You've...been here before?" She also scans the area as usual, P I . Particularly in regards to finding an exit.
DNA: 	My mind just went. "Oh, right, that one. Wait, your character? No, my first guess was right."
* Jennifer Attaway stands up, trying to clear her head. Uuugh. Damnit, why does everyone have to be a cute and beautiful person?
	Alsine Kolstad: 	Alsine exhales. Her Auroma Veil fighting the scent of the room. (all allies immune to infatuation.)
DNA: 	...Wait a sec. What do you mean you fail infatuation rolls on 6 or higher?
Chronicler: (( Yes. ))
DNA: 	That sounds mechanically incorrect; normally you fail infatuation rolls on 10 or lower.
Chronicler: (( Roll 1-5 to succeed. ))
Chronicler: (( I'm aware. ))
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"... Thanks, Alsine. That helps."
Avara: 	the perfume is pretty badass
DNA: 	Oh, you're inverting/replacing the roll effect. Okay.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"I would like some of this perfume though, I like the scent."
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"Please. Please no."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"I'd like some too, but not for use on the road. This is a special occasions smell."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Like... *very* special."
Chronicler whispers: You find several life forces at work here. Seven creatures at just on the other side of this bubble floor. Two diminutive. Two medium. Three large.
DNA: 	(Saturn asked Alsine a question a little while ago.)
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe searches this strange room. For any items, or hidden doors. Or regular doors for that matter. Perception to search.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: When you say other side, do you mean underneath the floor, or do you mean this room's floor is basically a bubble and they're 180 degrees on the other side?
Avara: 	brb
Chloe: 	((didn't notice))
DNA: 	sa'right
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"I haven't been here before Saturn. But I'm always feeling these... succubus instincts. The second I fell into this room..."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Oh. Oh..." Her voice trailed off, ashamed.
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"It was a fair question. I should be more open about my issues."
Chronicler whispers: Bubble other side.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"There's 7 things in here...3 big, 2 our size, 2 Finch-sized. They're on the other side of this floor - like if we kept walking, they'd be there."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"There's gotta be a door or something..." Saturn's eyes dart around, irritated. (Anything from the Perception check?)
Avara: 	back
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"I only found one door." Chloe said, pointing to the hidden outline. She lifted it, if she could.
	Chronicler : 	You are not able to reach through the fleshy ground.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Hm?" Saturn goes to where Chloe is, and looks at the outline. Perception - How is it constructed; does it look mobile; any switches/locks maybe?
Chronicler whispers: It looks like a normal door. Just on the other side of the room, through the floor. So, probably underneath the floor. Or in the middle of the fleshy floor. Its not on this side of the mound you stand upon.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Um...Chloe, I think it's on the other side."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...uh oh."
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: They're standing on the door, aren't they.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"This is a one-way room...?"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Maybe from one end, but there has to be at least one way out."
Avara: 	is the chute blocked off by gooey floor?
Chronicler : 	It is not.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"This might be a trap room then? Lets try downward."
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"If we can get back down, yes." Jen, with her flying mount, will attempt to Descend.
	Chronicler: 	You cannot shift through the fleshy mound.
	Chronicler: 	Unless, of course, I'm misinterpreting your meaning of 'down'.
Avara: 	down the chute that you said isn't blocked off?
DNA: 	I think the chute is on the ceiling.
Avara: 	... ah.
Avara: 	that's... okay.
Avara: 	going along the chute.
DNA: 	The floor is a sphere
DNA: 	which would mean that the chute is above us.
	Chronicler: 	The chute is along the side of the wall. When you approach it a gust of force thrusts you onto the floor where it deposited you.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe rolls back into the center of the room, tumbling in a heap with the increasingly frustrated Alsine.
* Jennifer Attaway is knocked down, and rises back to her feet, helping her mount do the same.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Maybe there's a switch to reverse the vacuum..."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Time to search for hidden or non-obvious objects !
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"The floor is fleshy, we might be able to cut it. I don't know what it will do with our minds if we do."
Chronicler whispers: You find naught that is not obvious on your side of mound. The walls are smooth but fleshy and pulse with eerie life. The floor echoes this pulse but remains firm enough for you to get solid footing. A door is visible, through the mound, but remains out of your reach. The ceiling, due to the shape of the room, appears to be 30-meters above you, but possibly closer or farther.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"What do you think?"
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: Can I tell where that door leads, or just that the door exists?
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"I don't know if I'm brave enough to try that..."
Chronicler whispers: Just that it exists.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"There's a door on the opposite side of the room, on the floor, but...I think that's where the other creatures are lurking.
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"I was thinking of letting Rai out to start destroying something myself, but I'm not sure what."
Jennifer Attaway: (( is saturn mentioning a single door, or multiple doors? ))
	Saturn Rosewell: 	A single door.
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Well, if we're inviting trouble, do we have any traps we can set?"
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"I don't have any."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"We have two options, right? Try to find a way to turn off the wind, or dig through to this door. Did you find any others Saturn?"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Sadly not... The door is all I could notice. My eyes aren't that good yet..."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Then we have no choice but to dig. Alsine, do you want to try and cut it?"
DNA: 	I am really wishing we made it to TL 21 by now...
	Alsine Kolstad: 	Alsine drew her fire blade and tries cutting the fleshy substance over the trapdoor.
	Chronicler: 	Roll to hit and damage.
	Alsine Kolstad: 	Rolling to hit. -2
	Alsine Kolstad: 	Alsine slipped and nearly fell.
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"..."
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"I don't have much in the way of weapons training."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"May I try something?"
	Alsine Kolstad: 	"Please, go ahead."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn's going to try and freeze-dry the floor instead, desiccating it with cold. I forgot if that work has 2 Ss or 2 Cs. I must ask Mike.
	Chronicler: 	Roll to hit and damage.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	12 vs Special; if that hits, 29 Special Ice Piercing damage. Water-type is weak to Ice this move, if that somehow applies to the floor.
Eclipse: 	Apparently it is 2 Cs, so I guessed the right spelling.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Maybe that'll soften it slightly for the flame sword?"
DNA: 	And now, I wait.
	Fleshy Mound: 	Fleshy Mound loses 24 hit points.
	Fleshy Mound: 	Fleshy Mound suffers some icy damage, crackling and where struck, begins to bleed.
	Chronicler: 	The ground shudders briefly and you hear a deep and powerful hum from all around. It continues for a moment but then ceases.
	Chronicler: 	The blood quickly begins to coagulate over the struck area.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Do we have any telepathic pokemon? Or anyone who can commune with this? It might be alive."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Natasha can, but...I'm already scared of getting her involved in this."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"It would be better to ask nicely if we can, wouldn't it? Maybe that's how they move through here."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"Mmmmmmmaybe...?"
* Saturn Rosewell releases Natasha but keeps her close by so she doesn't wander or get dragged off somewhere.
Chronicler whispers: You see a diminutive sphere of light silently floor over the mound to where you are before slowly making its way back on the other side.
Avara: 	chronicler, was that the right person to whisper to?
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: She shall be speaking in Poke-Kantonese, first to the floor. She will first ask it telepathically (Are you there?)
	Chronicler: 	Yes.
Avara: 	okay.
* Jennifer Attaway will follow what she sees.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...I wasn't the only one who saw th-"
Chronicler whispers: You do not sense any mind outside of the seven Saturn pointedly felt in the same room though on the other side of the mound.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"H-hey little light! Come back!"
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...Nope. Guess not." Saturn cautiously follows Jen.
* Natasha recalls herself. She told Saturn that she couldn't sense anything from it. It doesn't have a mind.
	Chronicler : 	You may drop your token around Q130 on Battlefield
	Chronicler : 	Traveling across the mound you can finally see the seven creatures Saturn mentioned earlier just on the other side.
	Chronicler : 	Two plant-lady creatures, two sphere of light, two creatures of light and a woman with black wings.
Chloe Blanchett: 	"Those plant ladies are so cute~"
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature stands among a stream of runes that vanish once she looks up at your group.
DNA: 	Wow, Alraunes. Wasn't expecting that. ...I think.
	Chronicler : 	Awesome. You're back?
DNA: 	I'm back, yeah.
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature clenches her fists as she feels your presence, having no eyes to see you with, "And thus the demons return to haunt me." Black-winged creature scoffs with a turn o fher head and the creatures about her jump, suddenly at attention.
Avara: 	still writing? don't want to interrupt the gm
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Where did you come from?"
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature pauses, an unfamiliar sound reverberating among the room. A boy? Young? A girl? She could not tell. But new. Definitely new.
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"What? Wait, no...no, we're just trying to find our way forward. We aren't here to annoy anyone..."
	Black-winged creature: 	"A trick! A deception!"
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature stretches her arms up toward the ceiling, "Why master? You corrupt and mutate me so. I do as you ask...I do as you ask..."
DNA: 	"...How can we prove we aren't here to bother you? ...Who are you talking to?" Saturn gulped, like a peach pit was lodged in her throat.
	Jennifer Attaway: 	"Please calm down and listen to us. We're just trying to investigate this place to stop attacks on a settlement."
	Saturn Rosewell: 	"...How can we prove we aren't here to bother you? ...Who are you talking to?" Saturn gulped, like a peach pit was lodged in her throat.
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature pants and turns her head to the side, revealing she has no ears as well, "It lies. It lies, a trick it must be." Black-winged creature shakes but with fear or fury you cannot tell, "Another test? A demon? No-no-nonono." Black-winged creature clenches her long-nailed hands, "Don't let it in..."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Do you know how to leave this room? We found a door, a way out. All we want to do is leave this room."
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature raised her hands and thrusts them at the creatures around her, "Don't. Let. It. In." Black-winged creature maneuvers her hands as if pulling at invisible strings and the creatures raise like puppets, "Don't let it in! Don't let it in! Don't let it in!"
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: Could a Telepath try and fight off whatever is trying to fight its way into the creature's head with a Focus check?
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature thrusts her army forward, "Kill it! Kill it!"
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Initiative = 12

Fleshy Mound whispers: You very well could try on your turn.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: All right - what action would that be? Standard? Full?
Fleshy Mound whispers: Standard.
You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: ...Sounds like I've got my work cut out for me, then.
* Jennifer Attaway starts singing, attempting to Fascinate her enemies! Charm vs Focus or Intuition within 18 meters of her! Requires Vision and Hearing. Max Targets: 6.
DNA: 	Currently everyone is within 16m of her, so this works.

Saturn Rosewell has received initiative.
Avara: 	gah. half-bird jerk!
	Saturn Rosewell: 	Saturn first takes a deep breath, as white fog is exuded from her mouth and pores. 4 uses of Mist! After which, she releases Natasha as a Shift Action.
	Natasha: 	Initiative = 15
	Natasha: 	Due to them having the same Initiative, Natasha gets to go right away!
Plant-lady 2: (( Pfft, no she doesn't. ))

You whisper to Kaorin Sakura: Will wait for result effect.
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature twitches.
Avara: 	heh.
	Natasha: 	Is that all I know/can see?
Black-winged creature whispers: As you reach into her head, you find she is intentionally disbelieving anything you or any of your group says. She hears you fine and is not influenced by any forcefully controlling source though is entirely enslaved by conditioning to The Master. Attempting to discern her motives or hint at your trustworthiness causes the Black-winged creature to force you out of her mind violently.
	Chronicler : 	Let me know if you do anything else.
	Natasha: 	"Ouch!" Natasha backs off a little, but that's all for her turn.
Chloe Blanchett has received initiative.
	Chloe Blanchett: 	Chloe casts Spell Shield (generic) on herself!

You whisper to Chloe: "She's intentionally disbelieving whatever we do or say. She's not...she's not mind-controlled but she IS conditioned."
	Chloe Blanchett: 	"Some of us are studying the arts... are you looking for a new master?"
	Natasha: 	Natasha says something in Dutch.
Alsine Kolstad has received initiative.
	Black-winged creature: 	Black-winged creature scoffs, "I am no Esp--" Black-winged creature grits her teeth, "Why do you test me so?!"
