Now where am I?! (Moore)

[Nephrite]

"A little here and there." Moore says. "Hm... Usually with something like this, you replace one letter with another, like, change all 'a' letters to 'b' letters and all 'z' letters to 'a' letters... Mmmm..."

Take 10 on Profession (Code Breaker) for 29? :D

[Anastasia]

More relevantly, do you have any ranks in Decipher Script?

[Nephrite]

Theoretically! That would be 34 in that case.

[Anastasia]

Ah, it's a substitution cipher. A becomes Z, B comes Y and so on. Translated, it reads as follows.

Passwords:

Tiger, lion, cougar, panther.

[Nephrite]

"Oh, I see!" Moore says after a few minutes. "You replace a letter with one on the opposite end. So it says 'Passwords: Tiger, lion, cougar, panther'. I imagine those will be of use later." Moore says as he puts the paper and the locket away. "I think that's everything for this room, so shall we explore some more?"

[Anastasia]

As you say that, the door into the room opens. A pretty maid with short cut black hair is here, she startles and then bows to you. "Welcome, intruders. You have been captured, I have no choice but to kill you."

[Nephrite]

"I wonder if this is another construct..." Moore says. Well, there's no harm in trying --

His intention is to cast Greater Dispel Magic, but I realize he may not have time since she's probably going to, you know. Try and kill us.

[Anastasia]

Init, yes.

[Nephrite]

[13:52] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+34
[13:52] <Serith> Nephrite roll for Serith < 45 > [d20=11]

[Anastasia]

> roll 1d20+27 Ilsenine
<Serith> Kokokokokokoko roll for Serith < 44 > [d20=17]
> roll 1d20+10 maid
<Serith> Kokokokokokoko roll for Serith < 22 > [d20=12]

Init is Moore (45) > Ilsenine (44) > Maid (22)

Open Moore.

[Nephrite]

Moore attempts a greater dispel magic! Worst case, it may weaken the creature if it has protections!

[14:02] <Serith> Nephrite roll for Serith < 38 > [d20=13]
[14:02] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+20 greater dispel magic
[14:02] <Serith> Nephrite roll for Serith < 36 > [d20=16]

[Anastasia]

And like that, the maid is gone, winking out from your dispel.

Free act.

[Nephrite]

"On the one hand, this feels entirely unfair." Moore says as he flies towards the door. "On the other, I suppose we risk the wild magic causing something strange to happen."

[Anastasia]

"Thus the risk and randomness," Ilsenine agrees.

Out here is a hallway. It's well decorated in red and lit by sunrods. There's two doors on the right and three on the left, each closed. At the end of the hallway is a stairway going down.

[Nephrite]

Moore will check the closest door on the right!
