OOC:   Human pyramid!

If the others are going to help Charlie hold up Harry then I'll allow a bonus die per person for the STR check. I would point out that Darren and Louis have the best Gym Class skills (80% and 49% respectively).

Re: IC - Day 6 - The Circle of Life

The old doctor takes up the glass jar and raises his arms almost to the level of his head, as if he's going to smash it. Then stops, and places it back down. ' Non, non. We cannot. Think what we could learn about these creatures.' He throws the gown back over the jar. 'I will dissect this myself.' O...

You can only just reach her legs from here, but not enough to relieve her weight or to make any attempt to untangle her. Maybe with someone on your shoulders...

Re: Episode 1 - What hath night to do with sleep?

Heading to the southeast you skirt around the shore of the scenic lake but only about twenty feet out into the water there is a rising wall of criss-crossing lattice that blocks your view of the water. There's a rough gravel path that approaches very close to the water's edge. As you reach the south...

OOC:   So Maria's father took the statue for restoration, gave it to Nanni who sold it to the dollmakers. And we think they may have used the leg to repair damage to a statue in the clock tower?

Clermont removes the sheet and looks into the murky fluid where the grotesque creature floats. 'I am not sure. There is much we could learn from it...from, studying it. But...' He turns away, 'It disgusts me, it... unsettles me. I do not want to have it around, and I know Edouard wants nothing to d...

There's a slight stirring of the water. Ripples emanating out from towards the middle of the channel and washing against the piers of the bridge.

DI Malone shrugs. 'We don't have long. If we want to get the message out it will need to be broadcast widely. Unless you have an idea who we might tip-off to get back to Balfour? It's a risk either way. I'll be guided by you.'

Re: Episode 1 - What hath night to do with sleep?

The missing span across the water is a good ten foot in length. It's not obvious how it could be fixed but the wooden pilings still rise out of the water and perhaps provide enough handhold for someone to try and climb across. In terms of paths, there are essentially four visible from here. North, a...
