[Game Thread] Chapter I

[Greaven]

Gritting her teeth as feet kit up dirt behind her, "No doubt, but zis vill not end vell eizer vay, ze mob vill still hound us if ve do not find proof." Sword drawn now, she streams for a window near the door, intending to leap right through it.

Liz looks on in horror as the lady knight charges the window. Absolute lunacy. had we stuck to the doors, we could have barred them, or would have had a chance to do so. There's no way we'll be able to secure a shattered window. Liz throws herself against the doors, frantically trying to open them.

[Cheaplaffs]

Company von Drachen Liz finds the doors to the council chambers unlocked, but pulling the two heavy doors apart wide enough to slip through costs her some time and by the time she's able to get around in a position to pull them shut, several of the townsfolk have gathered on the other side, pushing their weight against her's. It's a good thing Lady von Drachen was able to perform an expert swan dive through the glass of the window, because together you may be able to summon the strength to force the doors closed and bar them. Coming through the pane glass cut up Von Drachen's face and hands, however, and she receives 4 points of damage. I'll need a strength check from both of you, +2 for assisting one another, and I'll take the highest of the two.

Liz braces her back against the double doors and wedges her heels in the small crack between stones composing the floor of the council chambers. Push, push. Nine Hells, who am I fooling? This is not going to end well.

Strength Check!

[Greaven]

Following up behind Liz, von Drachen throws her weight into the door with a stumbling heave, giving little more than aid to the ailing woman as they struggle to bar the door.
