[SRP] The Dark Castle Game Thread

[Evra]

Reyes trys to grab the statue and swim back up to the surface to analyze it .... without the worry of drowning

[Rodney]

The answer is a pair of glowing eyes staring down at him... Belonging to a big and scary bat - made apparently of stone!

The scary apparition is the last straw that broke the donkey's back. Rodmark screams and attempts to run as far away from the apparition as his legs allow.
His objectives are divided in two steps : 1 Get away from the thing, whatever it may be. 2 Get away from this place.

Rodmarks legs it as best as he can.

~ Andrew ~

There's nothing to see. Except... No, nothing... Wait, there it is again! A sort of vague, whitish outline moves past the windows on the second floor...


~ Marcus ~

There is a deceptively soft snap, then Marcus finds he's holding the handle in his hand. Oops? Oh, and the door's still attached to it. Seems like it came off its hinges.


~ Simon ~

So far so good. It seems the map matches his surroundings. The route twists and turns... then makes a sharp right turn, straight into a heavy, wooden door...


~ Jace & Jason ~

And the big, stone slab comes up an inch... His might alone doesn't seem to do the trick though.


~ John ~

As he peeks through the door, he is momentarily blinded by the light coming through the wide window. The window right behind a big, big monster...


~ Reyes ~

Grabbing the statue is easy enough. However, the slightest pull makes the upper half come loose. Right after he surfaces, is a brief tremor can be felt through the water...


~ Rodmark ~

Unfortunately, his foot hooks behind something, bringing him crashing right down to the floor. The impact makes the floor tremble... and little bits of crumbly rock come off the statue.



( Hey all, thanks for being patient. If you're all still around, that is. I'm back to updating this, but I'll be stepping things up a bit. (The pace story, not frequency of updates, I'm afraid.) It seems I was a bit too ambitious right at the start, so I'm gonna be remedying that from here on out. All this is still the prologue... )

[Evra]

as reyes feels the tremor he looks around nervously as he looks around for somewhere to swim to

~ Jace & Jason ~

And the big, stone slab comes up an inch... His might alone doesn't seem to do the trick though.

Jason frowns a bit as he looks on. "Here, let me help." He says, moving over to Jace.

[ZeroForever]

~ John ~

As he peeks through the door, he is momentarily blinded by the light coming through the wide window. The window right behind a big, big monster...

(oh your still alive... I mean welcome back)

John knew what minotaurs looked like, it's not like he hadn't seen fantasy movies before... given the circumstances though backing away and trying the other doors seemed like a good option now.

(Was I involved in this RP, I can't remember it's been so long since I have checked updates here. I don't even remember who my character was.)

[Blaze]

Zeke stands before the large door and takes a deep breath before pushing them open.

[Knight Errant]

((YAY! Firey mountains of doom went away! ^^))

"..." Well it was better than nothing. Andrew decides to go check it out. He heads over to the bottom floor door, heading in.

[Zoey]

Jace nods and gives space for Jason to help. "On the count of 3... 1... 2.... THREE!!!" he exclaimed with a grunt as he tried to pull the slab open once again.

[Alissa of Someday]

"..."

Jerking back again, Marcus manages to just barely stop himself from dropping the door--goodness knows there had already been enough commotion in this room that anyone...or anything...had probably already heard him, but he wasn't in a big hurry to draw any more attention to himself regardless.
Carefully lowering the door to teh ground, Marcus takes a deep breath, and hobbles through the entrance!
