You both made it down the stairs close enough to each other to see the same thing. The first basement level is empty, as you expected. Before either of you get much chance to explore, however, a very frantic and female scream can be heard coming from the second basement level. And my does it sound like it's going to Hell upstairs.

Actions?

A lady in trouble? Of course we have to help! ...get her clothes off.

Darryn does put on the speed, keeping his silver-plated dinner knife in his good hand, and juggling a lantern in the other, while trying to get a good grip on a deck of cards, just in case he needs to pull off a quick spell...

"As if filthy undead breaking down the doors aren't enough..."

Jaq tries to place the scream just heard with any known screams that s/he has heard in the "line of duty" [read: Total Recall] to attempt to determine who might be in trouble - mostly to see if helping is warranted.

While Darryn rushes ahead, Jaq's check confirms that it is Ginger, a lovely wench from the Eastern Territories that has a few too many illicit habits, including a regular dalliance with the missing Necromancer. There's long been rumors about what those two do behind closed doors.

Harv, welcome to your new thread. Otherwise, don't post just yet as these two have a full round of action ahead of you.

It'd probably help if I said what you see, wouldn't it, Darryn. Inc pm!

Darryn is momentarily taken aback at the "Roaring Rampage of Revenge" scene in front of him. The sick scent of blood and ichor nearly suceed in forcing him to empty his stomach, but the last several months at Auntie's had helped to "condition" himself from such temptation.

The desperate gasps of Ginger in the midst of torture rape, don't help matters none, either.

The dinner knife disappears in a flash into Darryn's sleeve (just looking for storage, not concealment), and the deck of cards (minus 2 Jokers), finds itself in Darryn's right hand, ready for use in his spell...

"Now, Dead Man, I don't be a-caring two twigs s'about you and your whore. That be between the two'se of you. But it be none too coin'ce'dental you show up, all tall, big, and gruesome, and Auntie's dun get overrun by the Living Dead. And gawds know, I ain't strongs 'nough to stop you from what ch'you be wanting to do..."

Darryn smiles mischievously.

"But I can sure slows you down. 52 CARD PICKUP!!!"

casting 52 Card Pick-Up (Curse), and spending the PPE (20) to make the magic save -6

Harv, feel free to insert yourself as well. I'm going to post what Nova got sent via a PM.



As you rush down the first thought that strikes your mind is "Oh god, and I thought the Zombies smelled bad."

It's been a massacre. On a quick two second scan you see at least half of the guards and ladies who came down here for "safety", or at least you see their body parts scattered about. Where the rest are, Ra only knows. And then there's Ginger, and the Necromancer (who looks like he's put on about forty pounds of muscle and half a foot of height). Hmm. Is he torturing her, or raping her, or both? Seems too early to tell. He's whispering in her ear, constantly, but you've no idea what language THAT is.

"What in the Infinite Hells is that all about upstairs?!?" yells Harv as he bounds down the stairs, pulling up short of running over the tiny changeling and trickster.

taking in the scene of the blood filled bordello, Harv clenches one of his massive fists, his knuckles popping and cracking under the strain. Gone is the Black from his vision, replaced by a cold certainty in his eyes, a certainty of pain and death.
"let go of Ginger and I'll only make you scream until Sun up!"

Trickster Mages...damn their curses. The Necromancer is caught up in the unconventional spell. Unfortunately, so is poor Ginger, and violent Harv.

All three, including the near naked and heavily wounded Ginger, all drop to the ground and begin shuffling around, slipping and sliding in the gore of the rest of the staff, trying to gather up the 52 cards.

Darryn, actions?

Harv, try not to snap him in half when this is all over.

"AH FRAGGING GIRL, THAT'S MY 7 OF DIAMONDS!!!!!!" yells the beserker as he grabs for the card to complete his set.

Otherwise Harv wresltes with the others in gathering the cards, proving that few can become as enraptured in a spell like him. Razz

((OHHHHHH Nova, you are soooo dead Razz ))

At their present speed, and due to Ginger's injuries, you'd guess it'll take a good five minutes for them to get all the cards. Especially the ones that went really far away.

(ROFLMAO!!! Seriously, I keep reading it and laughing... Laughing )

"Oh, Harv, I dun believe dis is gonna hurt me, more dan it will you..."

With that, Darryn pimp slaps the large Ogre, an action he knows will break the spell on Harv, while leaving the other two still consumed in the magic of the cards...

(Take your 1 point of damage, you big manly man you! Razz )

Yelling at the Ogre still on his hands and knees below him...

"Wake up! You big lummox, YOU weren't supposed to get in the way of the spell. But our friend, mister Dead Man 'ere, dun look a little diff'rant than last time I seen 'em."

"Maybe you shoulda get yer hands around 'em, right der around his neck, and make sure mister Dead Man just stays dead, ya hear? Ors do we need more peoples down 'ere, just in case you canna do that, eder?"

Harv rubs the side of his chin from the stingng slap of the cardshark. For a scant few moments Harvs eyes move between the form of the mage and the scattered cards at his feet, almost as if deciding between finishing his task and finishing the mage.

"Yous needs to make up your mind. First, pick them up, then don't pick them up..."mutters Harv as he absent-mindedly walks over to one of the corpses of the other guards and takes a spear from the deadman.

walking over to the form of the Necromancer who is still gathering cards, Harv tosses down one of his collected cards, waiting for the enchanted mage to notice the new addition. When he moves to gather it up, Harv with great fevor rams the spear thrugh his hand and into the floor below, pinning him to the ground. The smile spread across his face and the glint in his dark eyes, promises this to be only the first of many pains to come.

Darryn watches fairly nonchalantly, until he realizes Harv has no intention of executing the requested coup de grace! Realizing a spell user, even with the loss of his hand, is a sizable danger to the both of them, the silver-plated dinner knife once again flashes in Darryn's hand, as he tries desperately to slit the throat of the Necromancer...

(looking at the very least, to rob him of the power of coherent speech!)

Thankfully, Darryn moves far faster than Harv (17 v 4 for initiative), and his knife easily slices the Necromancer's throat open.

The move has the unfortunate consequence of causing Harv's strike to miss completely however, shattering the spear as Ogre strength meeting solid stone causes the wooden shaft to give out.

And it appears the Necromancer isn't even having the courtesy to bleed from his open throat.

Though he can't speak, the look on his face plainly says "foolish amateurs." as his hands begin to glow -- as do the dead eyes of the whores and guards littering the floor.

gripping a torn hand from the splintered shaft of the spear, Harv curses the fool mage for messing with his aim, which mage though, you are unsure of."Okay you puke licking donkey fuck, you are starting to make me mad."

and to accentuate his point, Harv goes for distance with a mighty kick to the downed Necromancer's head.

((called shot to the head, power kick if such an option is available. SUPER-AMAZING OGRE KICKA!!!!!!))

After taking this all in, Jaq realizes that there's more than one way to skin a cat; and, that given the chance, the cat usually will offer to skin itself.

Telepathy on the Necromancer, and I should be able to pick up his immediate plans as I imagine those thoughts would be closest to the surface. Ideally, I am also going to be probing for what he fears might happen (like, what he's hoping for us not to do).

PM sent for this.

BTW, Harv, since Darryn had initiative on you I'm giving him a chance before your ninja kick goes through.

Jaq points at the Necromancer and says, "That thing is just as filthy as the rest of the undead. We need to make our escape and get some distance from these things."

With that, Darryn grabs Ginger, throwing her over his shoulder if need be, and let's Harv obliterate the magic-casting zombie.

(So tempted to scream, "Cut his fucking balls off!")

There's a mighty crack, as Ogre foot crushes Necromancer bone. Weak, ragged flesh gives way underneath Harv's brutal assault, and bits of skull rush out of the head, spewing brain and blood over a portion of the room.

All around you the glowing eyes of the dead flash, then return to their normal glazed look. The bodies and bits all stop moving as well.

And then a purple energy so dark it's almost black comes pouring out of the Necromancer's ruined face...it masses for just a moment, looking solid like pudding or a baked good, then goes flying right towards Darryn's face!
