Nine-Nine Heart - Run 1

[idolpro]

[It's time for a new an exciting place, right? A land of adventure and fun and excitement!

Wait? Then why does this look like Tokyo-F. Like a Tokyo-F that has seen better days.

A dark purple haze has settled over the city, thick and suffocating, oppressive and heavy. The sky above is filled with yawning teeth and blinking eyes stare back at you. Buildings lie in tatters and their remains litter the landscape.

A few proud buildings still stand tall! The most prominent one among them - THE GAME TOWER. Though it is sporting more of an evil villain castle vibe than you remember. And it certainly used to be taller and not leaking out that purple smoke filling the air. Nonetheless it stands as a beacon in the city, the focal point in the ruin around you.

A voice echos in your head. "Find the Dark Master."

GAME START!]

GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[You've reached the game tower. It does look different. It stretches far above into the sky and looks like some evil villains lair, really. How tacky!

The main entrance is blocked by a wall of mirrors.

[The ghosts charge the barrier but it a flash of blinding black light they are repealed. They continue to try to strike it over and over, but the magic around the barrier holds.]

[justfuckingtryit]

The fuck's all this?

[Looking the mirrors over. Do they look like they can be easily moved?]

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[Glass shards burst from the floor reaching up to ten feet in places. Their latticed design makes it impossible to squeeze through to the main entrance.

LET ME KNOW IF YOU TOUCH IT]

[You joking? Who needs hands? He's got a ranged lightning spell. Which he's casting right at these things.]

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[You look at one of the glasses and see yourself as your spell strikes, but then the image turns watery, distorting. This memory plays along its surface. You are overcome with a feeling of not quite brothership, but a little more than friendship..

But then your spell strikes true. Hairline cracks begin to form in a section of the wall distorting your reflection.]

[we_meet_again]

[cautiously investigates the mirrors. Is there like a door or some other way to get in? Does it look dangerous to approach?]

[ALSO High above there are steal barred, stain glass windows though they could hardly be described as religious.]

Re: GAME TOWER

[we_meet_again]

[Hmmm..........How tall are these mirrors, anyway? He looks around for a big ol' rock or chunk of concrete that he could throw at a mirror.

Instead he sees some masked dude muttering incantations....???]

[mou_hitori_no_pharaoh]

[Waves hi at.

Well not really.

More like a raised eyebrow.

But Cobalt's presence has been noted]

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[The mirrors are 10 feet tall, and yes, you can find something suitable to throw at them if you wish! There is rubble everywhere!]

Re: GAME TOWER

[puzzlers]

Cobalt!

[ this is a pleasant surprise. ]

Re: GAME TOWER

[puzzlekeeper]

[ Yeah don't mind that guy ]

Ah - Cobalt!

Re: GAME TOWER

[forgottenmercy]

[going to tilt his head and examine the mirrors. any weak points, beyond the obvious 'they're mirrors?']

Shh, hold a moment, ghosts. Don't hurt yourselves, we'll find a way in.

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[Do you touch them?]

Re: GAME TOWER

[forgottenmercy]

[no, because he wasn't born yesterday. just looking for weak-looking sections in the mirrors or doors or something.]

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[Thorn put a crack in it.]

[High above there are steal barred, stain glass windows though they could hardly be described as religious.]

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[The barrier repels the mage in a flash of blood red light, and he howls in rage.]

"How dare you deny me entrance!? I have brought the appropriate sacrifice. Begone!"

[And then he begins muttering incantations.]

[mou_hitori_no_pharaoh]

. . .

I think this means you're fired.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[He shoots Intensity a glare and continues spell casting. :( MEANIE]

[mou_hitori_no_pharaoh]

[Should have raised him better. Going to blame this on bad parenting.]

Drop Exael. She obviously doesn't qualify.

Re: GAME TOWER

[puzzlers]

Do you need a hand?

[ looks to the silent magician. ]

We can help.

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

"Yes. BREAK DOWN THIS BARRIER!"

Re: GAME TOWER

[puzzlekeeper]

[ ................... pitiful.

Dark Magician could also probably get them in, but Yugi is nicer and offered first, so he's just watching all of this, unimpressed. ]

Re: GAME TOWER

[puzzlers]

[ some shadow mage amirite. ]

Re: GAME TOWER

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[YOU'RE A MEANIE TOO :( We can't all be class A villains.]
