The Arena II

[James Gryphon]

Sorry for the long delay, girls and guys. I'm doing some minor PP on your behalf, to cut through some of the needless delays here, so y'all can get back to doing fun stuff.

Delthion and Sandpaw lift the table, and attempt to throw it at the door. However, throwing a large object is harder than it might sound, and it doesn't collide with the force they might have hoped for. (result: 6) (result: 2) However, the hole is still enlarged enough to safely reach through to the other side and unlock the door; they do so.

@Faiyloe: Like most hotel rooms, this one does not have an actual kitchen (that might be a fire hazard). That said, you search through every cabinet you can find in the hotel room. They're all empty.

@rrrrr: You see the usual items in a bathroom: four towels and four washrags, a small container of liquid shampoo, and a bar of soap that is currently wrapped up.

[LT Sandpaw]

*Runs out onto the observation deck and looks round for anything of interest*

[Faiyloe]

*Hops onto the bed* *Converses with crew about plans*

[James Gryphon]

@Sandpaw: You see a few chairs and tables, like on the inside deck. There is cliff wall to both sides of the door. You look over the railing that surrounds the deck, and see the ocean beating the side of the cliff down below. It's about a five hundred foot drop. (result: 2)

Faiyloe chatters to Sky and rrrrr about drowning all of their enemies in the swimming pool. How good a plan this is when the teams are evenly matched, I leave to the readers to determine. (result: 4)

[Søren]

*looks around on second floor for something of interest, holding Coke + Mento bomb for emergency use*

[LT Sandpaw]

*Turns away from the ocean dusting off my hands* "It appears teammate Dell that the ocean is a little to far down for my fishing line to reach so we will not be catching a fish today. However we can go beat up Faiy, Sky and Rrrr if you like?"

[Delthion]

"Then I have a plan! But I won't tell you yet!"

[LT Sandpaw]

"Um, okay."  *Hefts my fishing pole and follows Delthion.*

[rrrrr]

Ahem

[Søren]

*looks around on second floor for something of interest, holding Coke + Mento bomb for emergency use*

OOC: James, is there anything of interest up here?

I'm so sorry I didn't run your input -- I guess I saw it as just a thing, not a command that needed rolling for.

Here we go.

@Soren: You see the elevator, the ice machine, the soft drink machine, and the candy machine. You see Delthion and Sandpaw roaming around aimlessly on the bottom floor.

You notice the marble pillar in the center of the arena, with the control dome at the very top of it. Ashenwyte is near it, trapped in a cage hanging from the ceiling.

Some of the railing on the north side of the room looks very flimsy.

There's a round thing that looks like a fire alarm on the north side, in between the first and second floors.

You notice that one of the doors has a sign marked "Stairs" posted next to it, on the wall.

One of the doors on the south side of the room looks different from the rest of them. There are two signs posted on it, neither of which you can read from this distance. (result: 10)

[Søren]

*heads for the doors that are different *

[rrrrr]

*Looks at Soren* "STOP HIM!" *yells*

[Søren]

*runs to the door and flings it open*

[James Gryphon]

Skyblade and Faiyloe , who are completely oblivious to rrrrr's scream even though it was from just a few feet away, sit on a hotel bed and stare at the wall.

It might've served Soren right to have been hurt violently attempting to open an apparently locked door (as the sign on it, if he had read it, would have claimed that it was), but in this case, by a quirk of fate, the door was either not locked or didn't close all the way, so it swings open.

@Soren: You can see what looks like a supply room. It looks as though someone very hastily attempted to clean this room out not too long ago, as most of the shelves, nooks and crannies are bare. However, there's still plenty left in here to attract attention.

You see a wooden broom with authentic straw bristles lying against the wall.

There's also a hotel housekeeping cart. Things in it, on it and connected to it include: a number of bars of hotel soap, two rolls of toilet paper, a big, empty laundry bag, an empty mop bucket (with wringer), a half-full bottle of Windex®, a full opaque bottle marked "Liquid Soap", a small pail and squeegee, an empty large black trash bag, and an unopened canister of antibacterial wipes.

You see a large sink in one corner. It's quite large, enough to easily accommodate the mop bucket.
