D&D II Act Two Scene I - The Tower

Fourier

Stroupy enters the room with Vrakrash and Ser Boros.

He stops, his mouth wide open.

"Is this truly the fabled Hall of Treasures...then the third column..."

He approaches slowly.

sKeith

"okay mini mes, if you are hungry, help yourselves to the bio from those biomechanical organs, eat you fill."

Vrakrash looks sadly at the small bone.

'I wish she had been here to present herself, brother... but this will have to suffice. Goodbye, mother.'

He hands the bone to him.

"You may approach and claim what is yours"

Iuric wanders into the garden in a contemplative mood, before hitting a biomechanical liver five time his size.

At that point he hears a rumbling and a giant crab like creature emerges from the ground.

"Who are you?" it asks.

Iuric looks around stunned "Iuric Mercutius, and you are?"

The Sarric's rush in and begin munching on the biomechanical organs.

The crustacean immediately wallops one with a pincer, though not hard enough to kill it.

"STOP! I have one job and I'm not failing it"

Vrakrash approaches the axe and grasps it with both hands.

"Gliomy. I tend the garden. Something Ursula has on order from a very high paying client. Custom grown god. It takes a long time though.

If you're headed up to the Hall, I've got no problem. From there on, things get dangerous though. I'm warning you, as I've warned many others. Though I suppose there's no way out on these lower levels, you kind of have to go up"

"whats your job dude, hitting people then saying stop? you should say stop first, then if they don't comply, hit them, you will find you may live a bit longer that way."

OOC:

The axe shakes in his hand. Vrakrash can feel its incredible power and yet it does not fully accept him. Drokrash spits.

"You claim our Father's axe and yet do so in armour given to you by the world out there. If our father thought us anything it is to be ourselves. Cast off the armour the world has given you and have on you only the raiment given to you at birth, for that is your true armour"

In the doorway, Retula snickers at this involuntarily, then returns her attention to Karinth.
"No, seriously, why?"

"Avoid the lake, thank you. Yo, 3 Stooges, leave the dudes organs along, we'll find you something else to eat soon enough." Sarric looks for exits.

"Well there are lots of different types of Gods. Ones that developed from and embody principles foundational to the plain, can't grow them. Ones that developed from mortal belief, with a tissue sample from similar such gods and some liquid faith, they can be grown.

Then of course there are mortal who underwent apotheosis, they can also be grown, but usually not worth the effort"

The waterfall flowing upward seems to be the only way out.

sKeith

Sarric bores of the god talk and treks to the water near the water fall and drinks his fill. He then looks at how to go about climbing up the waterfall.

"I'm not well versed theotaxonomy, but it goes up pretty high. Above the living principles of our plane stand gods who exist across planes. Confusingly some of these come from Mortal belief, such as many dwarf gods who span multiple plans given common tendencies in dwarven behaviour. Although more powerful, within a plane they must answer to that planes principles.

There are also Immortals. Mortals raised not to divinity, but something else, simply by their own will.

Above even them are the truly multiversal beings. Vast and incomprehensible. Present in all planes and who view a single one as we might a city or town.

Beyond that?

The Outsiders, the Old Ones, of which I know little"

"Sure. But if it looks like a dick you can ask Ser Boros. I gave that **** up in my 50s." Retula wanders into the organ farm, and has a quick gander at the wares, specifically looking for any bits that fell off when the Sarric's were at them.

Iuric's mind is blown "I had always believed gods were the be all and end all but if they are merely beings with power what gives them the right to dictate our lives and demand worship?" he says mostly to himself.


After a moment of thought "I have much to think about, I shall take my leave"


Iuric heads over to the water lifts and tries to figure out how to use it to get up to the next level.

The organs are:
A heart
A liver
Two lungs
Two kidneys
Gall bladder

All that came free was a bit of blood when they bit in.

Iuric heads over to the water lifts and tries to figure out how to use it to get up to the next level.

He quickly finds that unless he swims against it, the upward stream will easily carry him to the next level.

Vrakrash shrugs off his armour and stands as the world created him.

'No need for embarrassment folks.'

She surreptitiously tries to scoop some blood into her flask behind a minor illusion screen, all while racking her brain (aka history and arcana) for knowledge of any beings of that size that might have existed in the past and perished. Are they recognisably human/elf/dwarf proportions at giant size? Vivimantic insight!

After that though she'll follow Sarric for pacing reasons.

The axe accepts him and its energies flow over him forming a set of golden dwarven armour.

OOC: Axe is versatile. 2d10 Single handed, 2d12 Two Handed. Armour is as Plate

The organs are human in basic shape and construction. She manages to get a small bit of blood, then rushes into the water.

Fourier

As Sarric, Iuric and Retula ascend, they pass into the sky's garden. Past the clouds they see two small off shoots going to the 6th and 7th floors respectively. The numbers marked above the portals they flow into.

The waterfall itself continues upward into a portal indicating the 8th floor.

Karinth leaps into the stream going to the 6th.

OOC: Hall is on the 6th, your choice where to get off.

Evade

Iuric goes to 8.

sKeith

Sarric joins Karinth, exiting the falls at the 6th.

Iuric passes through the portal and is pushed up through water, before surfacing in a lake with seven small islands in it.

One each island is a tomb formed from three stones, a horizontal atop two vertical. Between the stones are stairs leading down.

Fourier

Karinth, the Sarrics and Retula flow out of the gateway and into small landing pool in a small room. A bunch of about ten goblins laugh at them as the goblins splash and dance about in the water.

The room is small and made of stone. The water drains off behind iron bars and steel door leads out.

"You know, 2 things bother me. Number one, in the 5 floors we've been on and we still haven't seen a single bathroom. Number 2..."
She looks down, then at the goblins laughing.
"I don't think we need to worry about number 1 anymore. "

She steps out, shaking her self like a wet dog.

"Hey, howdy chaps. any of you clowns seen something that looks like it would fit in this guts ass? Other than one of you?"

The goblins are taken aback. One sporting glasses responds.

"I dare say that's a bit crude miss. I nor the others have seen anything that belongs in that gentleman's 'ass' to use your parlance"

Sarrics clones snigger once more. "That chick said ass, she rocks"

Iuric hears a large beast move in the waters beneath him. Calming himself a bit he threads the waters in a way that is virtually silent and loses the beast after a short while, it never surfacing as he reaches the island.

Aside from the dolmen, there are only black petaled flowers with purple centers.
