Floor 1 "Wheel": 1-1

[Anastasia]

After a few minutes, Shadow stirs. He's in agony and dazed, but he's awake.

[Dracos]

"What was that?" He looks around, trying to get his bearings.

[Merc]

"Your trap detection method wasn't very safe, it seems," Varian answers. "You got hit by a bunch of darts."

[Anastasia]

Shadow thinks he's in the passageway he was in when he got darted half to death. My, isn't that a bad place to be? Of course, getting up and moving doesn't seem like the hottest idea either.

Drac, you're disabled. Read the rules here; you can take move/standard actions but some of them risk you re injuring yourself and finishing the job.

[Dracos]

"I see...I don't think I'm going very far.  You should try and go on ahead..."

[Anastasia]

For the moment I'm going to fiat bump you up to 1 HP, Drac. Hit zero again and you'll die, I'll have more concrete rules soon.

[Merc]

"Are you nuts? I saw you getting done in," here Varian snaps his fingers, "just like that. I'm already dead weight right now with no magic. Being alone in a trap infested place with other things out to eat me doesn't strike me as the smartest thing to do."

"Look, I'll support you and get us both back to that starting area. Maybe we'll get lucky and we'll find more embarrasing yet useful stuff," he proposes instead. "Hopefully some more of that healing potion."

[Dracos]

"Not the beginning...knowing that creature...he'll probably just squash us if we go back...let's try that lever," Shadow ulled himself weakly to his feet, leading down to the lever they crossed earlier...and helping varial down, keeping an eye on their backside.

[Anastasia]

Just so that I'm clear here, you mean the lever by the stone pillar, in the pit where you fought the tieflings?

[Dracos]

Yes.

[Anastasia]

The duo returns down there without incident. On yanking the lever, they find it lowers the stone pillar down, the stuck skeleton brought on floor level to the pit. It's quite easily accessible now.

[Dracos]

"Well...that was anticlimatic," Shadow helped Varial back up... the two going down... um...any of the passageways they haven't determined to be trapped.

OOC: 7-9 routes from a split point gets hard to refer to by ^^;;

[Anastasia]

Fair enough.

Fortunately, the rest of the passages are incredibly non descript. Almost non existent, easily forgotten once checked. This just leaves the main path now at last!

[Merc]

"How're you holding up so far?" Varian asks his companion.

[Dracos]

"Alive...  I doubt I could take another hit...but I can move alright,"  Shadow headed along the main path.
