*I test the ice hooks and decide I am too heavy.*
“YOLO!!”
*I jump*
English
-
*You begin falling rather quickly, and the faint pink light grows slightly brighter as you approach it.* [spoiler]How far out did you jump? There are a few outcroppings you might hit if you didn't go out far enough...[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]more than 4 feet, but not 6 feet?[/spoiler] *I try to judge distance*
-
[spoiler]The outcropping is roughly 5 feet in diameter, and it's a half circle. You have a decent chance of landing, I don't know about safely[/spoiler] *The outcropping is about 45 feet from the top, and the bottom of the Descent looks to be 3 miles down.*
-
[spoiler]wait so I’m going through a cylinder?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]The Descent is roughly cylinder shaped, but everyone is going down the main wall. The outcroppings are half cylinder shaped though.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]oh the outcropping are platforms[/spoiler] *Ill land on the first outcropping*
-
(http://rolldicewithfriends.com/rooms/polypart11 to see your nat 2) *You miss the platform, and find yourself tumbling into the abyss.*
-
*I try to use my Jetpack to stabilize myself*
-
*Your jetpack activates and is stronger than expected, and you begin to spin!*
-
*I bring my knees up and put my arms over my head to brace for impact*
-
*You brace for impact and... nothing happens. The platforms are retreating, and you are rapidly descending. About 2 miles to go!*
-
*I try once more to stabilize my spinning*
-
*Success! You stabilize, righting yourself and taking in your surroundings. A few people are Descending rapidly, and the faint light below is growing brighter.*
-
*I wait for about half a mile left to fall*
-
*You wait and wait, then suddenly, the ground is 100 feet below you!* (Earlier it made distances seem shorter, now they seem longer. Welcome to reality shifting!)
-
*I activate my Jetpack to slow down*
-
*You slow down, and see the pinkish light below. Roughly 60 feet to go*
-
*I fall*
-
*You make a decent landing, the first to arrive. Looking back up you can see with perfect clearness all the way to the top, and can pick out individual adventurers. At the bottom, you find a scaled door with vines descending from the ceiling above it.* (Do you have a light source on hand btw?)
-
*I investigate the door*[spoiler]my helmet has a flashlight do I need it? If so I’ll turn it on.[/spoiler]
-
*you turn on your flashlight, and at the end of the vines are small sickle shaped talons that glint in your light, revealing fresh blood stains on them.*

-
*Lots and lots of magic nearby, all around the door, the vines and the floor.*
-
*I look around the area*
-
*In contrast to the high energy signatures, the place seems very... dull. The vines and walls seem ordinary, and the door doesn't look special. Six arrives behind you and looks around.*
