The Manse Macabre (concluded)

Ah, so it is...

Zargon's Turn:

The Fimir Chef lies in wait from the safe side of the pit trap, licking his wounds.

End of Turn

[Big Bene]

Old barbarian impersonators say: "I'll be back"

Well, here I am.

I don't know 'bout you, but I don't want to go to closet, or come out of it

As TMU will have had a reason for this, I won't interfere with his plans (Me, I would have searched the closets for food. At least they seem to have a good taste here). Will take up Hurgar again when he enters a new situation (i. e. an unexplored room).

[TMU]

You go girl You take over him now, and I'll step aside. I don't think it's wise to search for meat tho, who knows what army is behind that door But do as you like

On a side note, boy or girl?

Whom do you refer to? It's a boy, but I already said so-

But having said this, I'm probably afk for some days. My will son be born tomorrow, so I and my finace will go to the hospital today and stay there for around finve days.

Or do you speak of myself?
Well, I'm male - though I normally prefer being referred to as a man rather than a "boy", being in my forties now.

[TMU]

Ah, I was talking about the baby I didn't remeber that one

[Big Bene]

Well then... where's the meat?
Movement:

Big Bene rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Hurgar goes to door to east, opening it (hoping for the pantry).

[Daedalus]

...The kitchen itself appears safe. The boar carcass hanging by the wall will probably go to waste, though -- it is partly butchered, probably by a very large cleaver...and the cleaver is missing.

Eddy jumps as the scratching in the walls returns -- distant and to the north.

I meat is what you are after, look no farther than the room you are in, my large friend. That scratching Eddy heard emanates from beyond the door you wish to open, which most likely holds back Zombies. The rest of us decided to leave them for later and continue on to the objective, rather than risk weakening ourselves. Remember the wise words of Old Shamans--they apply here.

Congratulations on the heir, by the way! Any chance of a pic in the pub for us?

[Big Bene]

Er.. Hurgar thinks. Thinks, thinks.

I tried to read all the posts since I left - can't remember anyone mentioning possible zombies behind that door. Perhaps just overlooked it. Also, as I understood, the scratichings comes from north of the kitchen, not from the east.

Hurgar's reasoning was, even when meat is pitily not ready (shouldn't have disturbed waggytail-green butcher master), people in here seem have good taste fer a good food, so a look at the pantry wun't hurt. But Hurgar has strong sense of group-doing, so if skinny-friends all say no-no, Hurgar will follow north (if Gamemaster still allows to).

Many thanks!
I'll post pictures as soon as I can.

[mikemacdee]

I was just posting the result of your original action when you replied, so I'm gonna go ahead with your first action.

Hurgar:

Hurgar opens the pantry door and...



...finds a pantry stocked with goods.

The scratching in the walls stops abruptly.

[Big Bene]

Ha!
Skinny-friends too much thoughts. All yummi food in 'ere!
Hurgar has still movement left, so 'e steps right in (one square through the door), and (if not teleported elsewhere) got himself somethin' nice to eat, also stuffing 'is pockets with food to bring 'is friends.
This also counts as searching fer treasure, methinks.
