{RP} Only By a Margin (stat based GM run RP)

The monk began to walk the only way that did not lead back to the sealed room they arrived from, stepping over corpses and around stool-pools it was not really a problem saved for the various smells.

About 10m down the hallway around the corner, there was an interesting object.
In the middle of the room, there was a large glass jar filled with some strange ooze. It was sort of in a basket with some sticks tied to it seeming to make a makeshift carrying-platform for several to carry.
Whatever this is, the goblins were transporting it from and to somewhere.

-Garthal, Gennaen, Sporuus. Your characters are leveled up with the stats as chosen
-Others just list as you post, your new stats will be updated before any fights or rolls are needed.

@Cedi: you choose one stat to place the extra points in, all stats still get +1 regardless.

-Note: XP is altered a little, rather than a set ammount I'm going to use percentages from now on.
Just makes it easier to reward random XP and not to give too much/little depending.

Sporuus
-Equipment list updated. The dagger does +0 damage, but it alters your "fists" from non-lethal to lethal.

-Mini-bios as well as full bios are updated with new stats.
-Yes, this is the entry of Gooey!

@Izanagi; List which skill you want as your first.

Lyrnya grabbed her spear from Garthal and with a rough cloth, wiped the blood that had remained on her weapon. Poor maintenance would bite her in the backside eventually.


"Nice shot, but that wasn't the result I was aiming for,

Lyrnya shrugged her shoulder in response as she inspected the shiny blade of the spear.

Well, it was by reaction. Habits die hard, and as a soldier, id rather not lose that habit.

While Sporuss dug around the dirt for god knows what, Lyrnya snapped up a small dagger and followed after the monk. It didnt look like it would do too much, but something would be nice in case she didn't have her spear again. As the two lead trundled less than 10 meters, a small, rudimentary palanquin sat in front of them on the pathway. Lyrnya squinted at the jar and approached it cautiously before poking ever so slightly with her spear to see if the liquid inside would react to the external stimulus.

What in the world is this?

**********************************************

Action:
Lyrnya pocketed one of the rusty dagger and followed after the monk before poking inquisitively at the large jar.

Level Bonus: +1 to Agility
 
Trudging through the battle-stained hallway, Garthal was still struggling to understand the goblins' behavior. Lo and behold, that he would come across an object they were supposedly carrying...

"What in the world is this?"

"Garthal no know..." he muttered, circling the cart while Lyrnya tested it herself. The substance inside was as alien as everything else to the lizardman, but if nothing else, the container's clear glass reminded him of the flask he had drank from before. "Big vial... maybe cave want drink...?" he guessed, poking at the top of the jar. "But... green things no drink..." he pondered, as he pressed his face against the object...

-------------------------------------

Action: Take a reeeeeeeeaaaaaaally close look at the jar
 
A face turned at the glass and smiled at them. It was innocent looking and from what it looks to be, infant-like.

"Gooey pink, not gween," its baby voice boomed at the glass. Looking around at the newcomers, it tilted in wonder.

"Gooey no know who you be. Can help? bad man kill mama. Gooey find bad man," it chided through the glass and filled it with sticky goo in frustration to try and escape.

"Gooey cant leaves."

with a sad and resigned look, he remained stationary within the vial.

-------

Action: try in vain to escape.
 
As the goo began to greet him, Garthal had jumped back, reeling from horrific shock. As he observed its helpless state and heard its pleas, however, the lizardman came to realize that he was being introduced to yet another strange victim of the labyrinth.

"Vial talk...?" he pondered, slowly drawing his face back towards the jar to watch the goop curiously slosh about. "... GOO talk? Goo Gooey? Garthal no see before..."

"
Gooey no know who you be."

"Garthal and friends trapped. Painting send us here..." he attempted to explain, poking gently at the jar. After seeing tiny green men, a walking fungus, and scaleless white people, somehow a sentient blob of goo failed to leave the primitive lizard surprised for long...

"Can help? bad man kill mama. Gooey find bad man. Gooey cant leaves."

"Garthal not sure why bad man kill mama..." his voice grew disheartened, as if about to ponder philosophy again, before he donned a determined expression. "... but Gooey need help! Garthal help!" he declared, hoisting the jar and tilting it towards the floor!

"... er... how big vial open...?" he looked around dumbfounded, giving the glass a couple of shakes as the cork sealing it remained put.

------------------------------------

Action: Seriously guys what is this plug thing on the jar it's not going away D:
 
The mushkin sighed as his companions wandered well ahead of him. "Mn... fine. More for me, then," he mumbled as he continued to rummage through the pockets of the dead goblins around him. From what he understood, these things liked to scavenge. For all he knew, his comrades could be missing out on some unusual trinkets or even a few coin.

-===========-

Action(s): Loot teh bodies!
 
Lyrnya was kind of shocked that the goo spoke all of a sudden. Her spear point shot up once again, giving it the most scrutinising look she could muster. The blob was trapped in this glass vial. That must mean it was unable to break out. That could be good. How was the group to know whether this blob was genuinely friendly or just showing a facade for them, only to try and consume them when it becomes free from its confinement.

"Garthal not sure why bad man kill mama... but Gooey need help! Garthal help! ... er... how big vial open...?"

I dont think that is sucha good idea. How do we know this thing wont jump us and try to dissolve us?


The lizardman obviously wasn't too concerned as he seemed very adamant in looking for a way to open it. He even put it onto its side in order to search the botton to see if there was any other trick. Lyrnya sighed in frustration and resignation before walking up to the lizardman. Thankfully, the cork top was now on its side at a height where she could actually reach comfortably. Her spearhead was jammed straight into the side of the cork and Lyrnya began to test the leverage it was getting on the glass lip of the vial.

Sigh.... I cant believe i am doing this. If THIS thing comes out and tries to devour me, i am going to haunt you when i become a ghost...

With that, Lyrnya put her feet onto the vial and the entirety of her weight and strength onto her spear and tried to pop off the cork.

**********************************************

Action:
Lyrnya tries to lever open the cork lid of the large vial
 
The creature inside the jar seems as curious towards the beings outside it's prison as the lizard is of it.
Putting it on it's side didn't alter much for the jar nor the creature inside it, but using the spear as leverage Lyrnya breaks the wax seals on it and pops the cork off the opening, freeing the creature inside.

"Ick," Sporuus frowned, sticking out his tongue in disgust at the glob of snot in his hand. Although not sure what purpose such repulsive goop could have, the Mushkin managed to pull the bottle out of his satchel and pry the cork open. The bulk of the viscous mass was slowly dropped in, but in the end, the remains still sticking to his hand were wiped off onto the corpse beside him. Once the bottle was corked, Sporuus smirked as he added the pebbles, eyeball, and the seeds he harvested into his ammo pouch. The twig, looking fairly flimsy, was carefully stuck into the pouch as well. The sand earned a pocket of its own. The encased snot was also shoved into his satchel. Because why the hell not.

With little else to do, the Mushkin finally scuttled along, simply twirling the knife between his fingers. Yet again, he avoided the fecal trail as he followed the path his comrades hurried down.

Sporuus wasn't sure what to make of the scene he had come across. A massive glass jar was tipped over and that spearwoman had just pried the cork off. A massive hunk of slime spilled out of the container, making the Mushkin hesitant to fully enter the room.

"What's all this about?" he asked at last, completely lost as to what was going on.

-============-

Action(s): Put Snot in Glass Bottle, Stash Loot, linger at doorway.
 
As the gelatinous creature obtained it's freedom it's attention was immediately put on it's saviour.
The long haired woman who popped the cork got a friendly pounce from the sentient goo which ended up sending her on her ass due to sudden balance loss. Being slobbered almost like an over-eager dog she ended up no less than wet all over her face.

Bouncing off his savior the creature then turned its gaze to the lizard man.
"SHREEEEP! Thanksh! Now we go where?" It seemingly asked Garthal.

-This is a post discussed with Izanagi, since he's without a computer at the moment this post has been discussed via chatting.
It's short and simple due to logical reasons. ^^

-Yes, I rolled, with the surprise and stuff, Lyrnya did fail to dodge. ^^

"Sigh.... I cant believe i am doing this. If THIS thing comes out and tries to devour me, i am going to haunt you when i become a ghost..."

"Why lady worry?" Garthal almost casually questioned the samurai's doubt, his coarse voice carrying the innocent obliviousness of a child, as the woman began to yank on the jar's seal. The lizardman felt the jar slip through his claws as the cork was removed, scarmbling lightly to regain his grip when its prisoner had leapt out!

"Lady okay!?" he asked, seeing Lyrnya stumble with a possibly painful thud. His worrysome expression, however, was replaced with relief as he failed to notice any real injuries on her person.

"SHREEEEP! Thanksh! Now we go where?"

"Garthal no know where..." he admit, facing the way that the party was heading. "... but Garthal think we go that way..." he suggested, pointing towards the unexplored end of the hallway...

--------------------------------------

Action: URGE THE PARTY ONWARDS but don't go too far ahead without them because that'd be a bad idea prolly
 
Why lady worry?

ASFAFDGNJSNGSBGBHDSGBH!

Lyrnya panicked as the goo leapt at her face. The goo threw her off balance and Lyrnya and the small Cheytan fell onto her butt, trying to claw this thing off her. Luckily, it wasn't actually trying to eat her as it got off her quite quickly. Unfortunately, it left Lyrnya somewhat slobbered on the face.

Lady okay!?

By the gods...eeyuk! Ptooey, Ptooey! Barely! THAT was why i worry. Thank the gods the thing didnt decide to digest me.

"SHREEEEP! Thanksh! Now we go where?

Garthal no know where.... but Garthal think we go that way..."

"What's all this about?

Lyrnya turned to Sporuss and pointed at the goo.


Something Garthal befriended. Ptooey. You have a clean cloth i can use?

**********************************************

Action:
Lyrnya explains the situation while asking for a cloth to wipe up.
 
"A cloth? Erm..."

The Mushkin began rummaging through his pockets and bandolier. Sand, pebbles, a bottle of snot... His wide mouth stooped to a frown. There was nothing he had in his pockets that could help in this situation. Though that didn't mean that he had nothing for her.

"Hold on a sec," he reassured the Cheytan. He gripped his left sleeve and with several hard tugs, the seams popped and gave way. The shirt itself was somewhat old, making it easy enough to rip off the sleeve. Sure, there was still the other sleeve attached, but it didn't seem to bother him any.

With a meek smile, he handed the torn cloth to the slimy girl. Remembering that not everyone here tends to shed spores, he paused. "Here. Just um... don't breathe anything in."

-=========-

Action(s): Tear Clothing, Give Torn Sleeve to Lyrnya.
 
"A cloth? Erm..."

Lyrna watched the shroom rummage through his pockets and his slowly forming frown meant that he probably didnt have anything she could wipe her face with. She wasn't that disappointed, really. It just would have been nice if her face wasn't all gooey. However, Sporuss quickly piped in before Lyrnya could tell him to not worry.

"Hold on a sec,

With that, Sporuss tore off the left sleeve of his shirt, shocking Lyrnya. Helping people was all fine and dandy, but she drew the line with wrecking something fine for something so menial.

"Here. Just um... don't breathe anything in."

The small smile showed that he meant well, but the line about the spores made Lyrnya scrunch up her nose. Gingerly, she took the cloth and with the utmost care, wiped her cheek, forehead and the top of her nose, holding her breath the entire time. There was no saying what after effect she might suffer if she DID breathe in anything.

Well, thank you for the... uh sleeve. If we ever find a needle like item and some thread, i can wash and reattach your sleeve. But in any case, Garthal seems rather impatient, so lets move on. We seemed to have also picked up a new... party member....though i dont quite know what it is...

Shrugging her shoulder in resignation, Lyrnya followed after Garthal and quickly caught up right behind his back. She frowned as his giant frame blocked her view. Frowing in disapproval, Lyrnya peered past him sidewards at the hallway he waslooking down at.

So...whats down there? Anything interesting or we just trying to get out?


**********************************************

Action:
Lyrnya
takes the cloth, wipe herself carefully, then follows after Garthal and curiously peer past him.
 
After the newfound partymeber was initiated the hallway lead two directions; the one they came from and the other way that broke to the left some 30 meters.

Around that corner, the hallway disappeared into darkness due to it's sheer length, some weak specks of light could be seen quite some distance down there though it was hard to make out what it was. Based on the flickering it should be torches or similar, but for some odd reason the air in here is slightly foggy.

+++GM Note+++

Imagine a hallway, without lights, 300 meters long and a slight mist/fog.
Not easy to make out shit at distance! ^^

Gennaen stood partway down the misty hallway, his arms crossed and his left foot tapping in impatience, waiting for the other members of the group as they played nice with the pile of goo. He had been half-tempted to simply walk down the hallway and see what he could see, but caution got the better of him. Safety in numbers and all that. But now that they seemed ready to continue on, he was even more ready himself. Being underground, or at least what seemed to be underground, had begun to feel somewhat stifling. And the mist that had crept into the hallway did not do anything to help that sensation.

So...whats down there? Anything interesting or we just trying to get out?

"Finally," Gennaen muttered under his breath. In a more audible tone, he spoke to Lyrnya and the rest of the group by extension. "Don't know what's down there, but we might be able to find out both what's there and the way out if we go." Looking around at the various members of the group pointedly, he continued. "If we, you know, go."

=================

Action: Wait slightly down the hallway.
 
The lizardman watched Sporrus help Lyrnya clean herself with a puzzled expression, failing to comprehend mycology- yet another thing he could only shrug off and try to just roll with in this strange new land or world or wherever he was.

"So...whats down there? Anything interesting or we just trying to get out?"

"Don't know what's down there, but we might be able to find out both what's there and the way out if we go."

"Garthal agree..." Garthal nodded, refraining from turning around to keep himself alert. "There only way. Garthal hope get out... back home... back with kin..."

He stopped himself from rambling, as he noticed the ominously cloudy hallway ahead.

"... careful. Fog dangerous. Stay close to fire..." he advised on his survivalist experience, slowing his pace to get closer to the torchbearing Lyrnya...

-------------------------------------------

Action: Suggest staying close to torchlight, follow own advice while remaining in front of the party.
 
With a sigh, Sprouus began to scuttle after the group, becoming visibly more uneasy as he caught up with them. The fog was far too thick for him to be able to see anything at a distance. Not knowing his surroundings always unnerved the Mushkin. His only resolve for defense was to keep a tight grip on that Rusty Dagger and hope he didn't have to use it. The torch wouldn't help to hide the group at all, but these things were always a double-edged sword simply because its halo of light granted them visibility while also allowing unwanted attention.

"Try to keep your voices down," he advised with a hushed voice. "Never know what's lurking in the dark."

-===================-

Action(s): Venture into the Fog with the group, Equip Rusty Dagger

Nothing fancy happens, feel free to move down the misty hallway at will.
Eventually there will be one that breaks off to the left while still leading ahead.
