@DM
You listen to the footsteps above you as you make your way upstairs, and recognize what sounds like 5 distinct footsteps, 3 of which are in the kitchen and 2 sound to be on the other staircase.

I go to my computer to see how Mark is doing. After all, I haven't checked on him in a while.
I zoom the camera out from Mark and take a look at his whole house
@DM
You find 5 creatures in the house, all small. Three raiding the fridge and 2 more playing on the steps. Two of them have glowing heads, one looks like a horse, and the other two have x's for eyes.
acousticDeadeye
Welp. Wonderful. May as well deal with this.
genousEnrichment
ge: hey Mark, how are things right now?
acousticDeadeye
Mark feels his cellphone buzz, it's Cy!

acousticDeadeye

genousEnrichment

acousticDeadeye

genousEnrichment
ge: redeem yourself for what?
acousticDeadeye
ad: Let's just say... BAD fight.
ad: Have you fought ANY imps yet?
genousEnrichment
ge: not too many. I've mostly just caught glimpses of them in the distance
ge: actually, none so far
acousticDeadeye
ad: Just watch then. YOU'LL understand why.
genousEnrichment
ge: Okay, for now. I'm gonna step in if I need to
acousticDeadeye
Mark puts his phone back in his pocket and heads upstairs.
"Looks like some more things have been prototyped..."
@DM
As soon as you get upstairs all 5 imps look at you and start chattering. Roll initiative.
