Ivy keeps her opinion of the whole sorry affair to herself.

In truth, she has little to add to the conversation, being unable to prove any wrongdoing by the priest or the wife.

Re: Statement 5: The Road to Hell

Councillor Short whimpers as you move towards the chapel. "Y-you'll protect me, won't you?" he pleads to Jordan, gripping him tightly. So tightly in fact, that any physical rolls Jordan makes will have a penalty die. Skipper, easing around the chapel door, carefully peers into the dark rec...

Re: Statement 5: The Road to Hell

Short's mouth opens and closes like a fish as he processes what's going on. "Y-you're real? Actual people? Oh my God you're real! Thank Christ!" Suddenly the ground shakes and a flash of lightning stabs the dark sky. "DO NOT BLASPHEME!" thunders a loud voice, echoing around the r...

  For the record, Short is just a man in a tattered suit. No creatures involved :)

Yeah, I thought fireballing the guy you’re supposed to be bringing to justice was too good an opportunity to miss :D

Re: The Incident Room: General Chat

Probably a lack of description on my part. Leo should’ve rolled CON, so I took the result of his POW. Mrs. Evans turned into the gateway, through which you were swallowed, so she’s no longer present. She’s been telling you that she is the gatekeeper and the gate itself :) So when Leo cast his fireba...

Re: Statement 5: The Road to Hell

Lewis' CON roll [85] = 85 CON 70 1d100: [ 85 ] = 85 Bent double, Lewis hacks and coughs - spitting out gobbets of phlegm. Perhaps it is the stifling air, the heat haze over the cracked ground, or maybe it is the soot that swirls through blackened buildings, but it is difficult at first to make out ...

Re: Statement 5: The Road to Hell

Mrs. Evans stifles a yawn, clearly growing bored of your questions and entreaties. "Yes, sleep would be nice, but what with the Preacher's preaching and the Councillor's crying, it's too noisy to sleep." A cold breeze rattles through the grove. The sky darkens. Some of you remain resolute ...

Re: Statement 5: The Road to Hell

As the sky darkens, Mrs. Evans frowns quizzically at Des. "Retire? From what? I am what I am dear. I don't judge anybody - I just provide the gateway. Back in the day, people would come to my grove be judged. Through my power they weighed their own worthiness. Good folk were rejuvenated, wicked...

Re: Statement 5: The Road to Hell

While parents and children walk around you, unheeding and in slow-motion, Mrs. Evans studies each one of you in turn. "Ah, Raymond... no, you prefer Skipper don't you? No dear," she chuckles, "I'm not a vampire who sends people to Hell - merely a conduit for those who think themselves...

Re: The Incident Room: General Chat

He completely failed to resist Mrs. Evans’ compulsion, so was forced to go to the school crossing (and on to the new post). It’s a moot point actually, as Mrs. Evans spent a shedload of Luck to turn her POW roll into a 1 (Demi monde can do that), beating everyone’s score, success or not. Not railroa...

Statement 5: The Road to Hell

'BRRRRRRRRRING!' You march along the rain-slicked pavement to the ringing of the school bell. You see pupils piling out of their classrooms, happy that their lessons are finished for the day. Some are picked up in cars, while those walking home wait patiently at the school crossing. Standing among t...

Re: Statement 4: Back to School

For a brief moment, Jordan's bedside mnanner causes the thief to falter. "M-my name's Steve Lewis. I my boss sent me to the house boss to find some paperwork that'd get him into trouble, but I couldn't find anything, so I thought I'd help myself to a nice telly instead," he intones. "...
