iamded Posted April 21, 2010 If all else fails, let's try to lure it towards the center of the room, then turn the wheel in hopes that the spears shoot up and impale it. Now we're thinking smart! I like this idea! Though I think I'm happy where I am, nestled amongst the wall spears, hopefully relatively safe from the horrible monster demon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Crazy One Posted April 21, 2010 Excellent, I think the luring onto the spears may be the best move, though highly dangerous. Maybe I could lure it on, and someone else turns the wheel while I jump at the last moment? I'm willing to try it, unless we find a different idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes lets try in vain to lure this demon towards the spikes. If that doesn't work perhaps the flash on my camera can scare it away? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hinckley Posted April 22, 2010 With some urgency I wish to check the walls my side of the gate, carefully, for some sign of a way to open the door. Penny, let's try and see if we can find a way to lift the gates up, otherwise, we will really need to head back to the bus.. Yes, you check on the left side, and I will check on the right side. Let's hope we could find some mechanism to trigger the opening of the gates. *There is no way to open the gate from where you are standing. Further investigation of the gate reveals nothing.* I would like to take Tony's hand and rush with him to the furthest corner of the room from the demon. Or at least further enough away to have a few people between me and it.Eeeh, perhaps we could all shelter between the spears? Or at least Tony and I? That way the demon would get a stabbing if it were to try and get us. What do you think Tony, good idea? *Ingrid grabs Tony by the hand and runs for the safety of the protruding spears.* *Once we're safe in between the spears, I'd like to try throwing one of Stanton's bones at the demon.* *Tony throws his Stanton bone at the demon. It bounces off the demon's snout and falls to the floor. The demon takes notice of Ingrid and Tony and tries to get at them through the spears.* I would like to.. er.. check my inventory? Do I have that nice pointy rib bone I thought I took earlier? If so, I would like to wield it like a spear-club thing, in case the demon were to try anything... *Ingrid pokes the demon's claw with her Stanton bone and it recoils from her.* Psst, guys! If worse comes to worst, we could distract the Demon with DJ! It'd be the best way she could help in her current condition, and if she was poisoned, the Demon would be poisoned too if he were to eat her! Just thinking out loud here... I'm gunna go comfort DJ *Donna runs to the weak and injured DJ's aid...and protection since she's being considered as a meal to satiate the demon...* With the help of some of the stronger members of the party, I'd like to throw the rotting carcass of Zach to the demon to placate it temporarily. Sheldon, what the hell are you doing!? Let me help you with that, for gods-sake man! *Grabs the other ends of Zach's corpse and helps Sheldon heave it at the demon* *The three men grab Zack's corpse and throw it to the demon...* *The demon takes Zack's lifeless body into his maw and then...something awful happens...* Failing that, I would like to turn sideways. I am so svelte slim that my silhouette is practically invisible side-on. The demon will never see me! *Sylvia wisely makes herself less visible...* If all else fails, let's try to lure it towards the center of the room, then turn the wheel in hopes that the spears shoot up and impale it. Diesel unsheathes his handsome sword and prepares for the worst, while hoping for the best. Yay, fresh meat, I mean a volunteer! Yes lets try in vain to lure this demon towards the spikes. *Diesel challenges the demon who quickly shifts his focus to the young man with the sword.* *Diana runs to turn the wheel, turning it back to the spike trap. Her plan works and the demon is trapped there, wriggling against the spikes. However, it is still alive and struggles to free itself from the spikes. It won't be pinned for long...* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Siegfried Posted April 22, 2010 For now I think I am pleased to be trapped behind this gate...With some urgency I wish to check the walls my side of the gate, carefully, for some sign of a way to open the door.

Siegfried Posted April 22, 2010 How Could you do that to my poor Zach!! We asked him if he objected but he said nothing. Think of the positive side; the funeral should be cheaper now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamded Posted April 22, 2010 Well, that explains the skeletonificisation. Er.. I don't suppose anyone can think of a logical, scientific explanation for the current situation? Tony, I think this is a good spot right here. Told you you shouldn't have thrown your bone... you should go retrieve it now, while the horrible monster demon beasty is trapped! Quickly though! Rush back here when you get it! Think of the positive side; the funeral should be cheaper now. Not to mention we've got a whole new arsenal. Everyone, grab a bone while Penny's distraught with grief! Rib bones seem to work well enough, we should see if larger bones can be used as clubs... someone grab me a femur! Oh wow, have I really become so desensitized so all this? <scratches back with rib bone > Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ricecracker Posted April 22, 2010 I'd like to run over to Zach's skeleton and choose a nice long bone. I may need it later... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Crazy One Posted April 22, 2010 Just before we all die, I would like to point out, that thing skinned Zachs body completely! Sound familiar? So know we know whats causing it.......I hope. Hang on, that wooshing sound with the dart, how did DJ activate it? Maybe we can use it to tranquilize this er....thing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dragonator Posted April 24, 2010 Quick, Diesel!Stab it! Stab eet! Aim for the eyes - that always works in the movies! Err, right of course. Diesel strikes a noble and valiant pose. Foul demon of the Nine Hells, your time on this earth is at an end! Go back to the fiery pits from whence you spawned! You shall not pass! Diesel raises his sword, which glints theatrically in the low light, and aims a blow at the demons' neck, with the intention of striking its head off while Siegourney is stabbing at its eyes.

Shadows Posted April 25, 2010 Nice job, Diesel. Glowing blue swords can mean only one thing ... Oh well, let's see if we can get out of this lovely room before being visited by the pet cheetah or a 60ft parrot. If turning the wheel opened that passage once, perhaps we could just do it again and see where doggy came from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
