The Shadow Carnevale (OOC)

Go strong bear, go!

Can the others get into the tent with Ezme or does 'Humphrey's' "none shall pass" prevent them as well as the crowd, or even cause the crowd to turn and prevent your progress?

Opinions?

With his high WIS and Awareness and Deception Skills it just did not seem worth asking Albeart to roll to spot that trap [ref]. :)

I don't think Humphrey's command applies to our heroes, just the menacing crowd. As to whether or not the crowd would try to stop our heroes from coming to Ezme's aid... It's quite possible. They seem rather stirred up.

I just realized that I think Roald punched Humphrey in the nose, not the eye. But that's fine. Sometimes dreams get details like that wrong. :-P

I’ll be camping for the next 40 hrs or so. Plenty of signal but somewhat busy. Will try to sneak in at least one post tomorrow, now that things have gotten exciting!

Enjoy.

lol. Sorry for waxing on... I love a good beguiling bad guy. 😂

Do you need me to beguile with him? You are doing great on your own and I did not want to step on your scene. :)

Do go ahead! I finished writing out my idea and am ready for you to step in now. :)

@vagueGM, can I have a little clarification about what's happening where? In your last post, you suggested that Ezme is now outside the tent and Lille is inside it.

Last I knew, though, Ezme was inside the tent (granted, it had been expanded and filled with trees), and Lille was outside the flap talking to "fake Ezme." So is that no longer the case?

Indeed? You moved us outside [ref], so the tent-flap which divides yourself and Lille must put her inside... from your perspective, you can't see much through it, so feel free to ignore that and have Lille also be 'outside' with the tent-flap being a barrier in space with outside on both sides, just don't ask me how it works. :)

Well, I’m down with tent flaps mysteriously suspended midair in the world of dreams. I’ll leave it to quietpanther and you as to where Lille is!

I hope I didn't disturb your plan Kara. Maybe I should 've discussed it first 😕.
In the 'real' Dreamworld Ezme is still inside the tent by the entrance, right?

I was planning on reading the ooc first... And then I started typing. 🤷🏻

FYI, I’m gonna go ahead and delete those three duplicate posts I somehow made.

Airshark, I’m not sure how to answer your question. I’m not sure where Ezme appears to everyone else, but that seems like as good a theory as any. Bear in mind that Lille and "fake Ezme" are conversing near the tent flap. Did you walk right by them?

And don’t worry: I have a notion of what the dream figure is trying to do, but I don’t have a specific hope/plan for Ezme that can be interrupted.

That said, your roll failed, so I’m not sure you’re interrupting quite yet.

I thought Humphrey had his back to the flap, preventing Ezme to walk out. So Roald opens the flap, watches the scene and reacts.

I thought Humphrey lured Ezme in another dream. Dreamception so to speak.

Oo. I have an idea for something I could do here if we don't get interrupted... I'd like to let someone else post first, though. :-P

Feels like INT based on what you are doing?

Has Lille just abandoned the outside Ezme?
Well, maybe? 'Inside' has a roof? And the roof could have stars? :)

Do you have enough or do you need any specific post from anyone?
