"Anyone object to a quick meal, since it's already here?" Borda thinks it might be better to face evil on a full stomach.

Jotna grimaces and says to Malista, "You been inside my dreams? Eeesh, sorry about that... The heart wants what it wants, ya know?"
Then, shrugging off her embarrassment, she nods in agreement to Borda's suggestion and digs in. Not long after, she stands, wipes her face with the back of her arm, and says, "Ok, sorceress. I'm ready. You got any spells or enchantments you can give us to make sure we gonna keep this thing extra busy? It's in your interest, innit?"

Elma
Elma joins in, but only eats the fruits and veggies laid out.
"Y-yes, whatever support you could provide would be good for both of us. Can you tell us anything about what we are about to face? Its weaknesses or vices?"
Lady Malista

"Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with this entity, so I can't give you much information." Malista tells you. "The one thing I can tell you is that it will try to get into your head and confuse you. I will be trying to shield your mind while you're in its realm."
"When you're ready, jump down this shaft." She tells you. "You'll land in the kitchen. Or at least what's supposed to be the kitchen. Don't worry, it's not far down. Oh, and don't trust anything you see."

Jotna raises a skeptical eyebrow at what the Lady Malista says, but ultimately she shrugs and accepts it. She glances down at the table and grabs one more handful of food and gobbles it down. She swallows, belches loudly, and then announces, "OK let's do this." She strides to the shaft and jumps.

Elma
Elma narrows her eyes at the shaft, but unsteadily lifts one foot, then the other, and slides down the shaft after it sounds like Jotna has moved out of the way.

Satisfied with the lack of screaming coming from the shaft, Borda follows the others down.

OOC:
Anyone who ate the dinner from Malista can replenish their omens (as per standard resting rules => roll based on your class)You seem to have arrived in some sort of kitchen. A large table in the center has been piled with rotting meat just like the stuff you're standing in. The odor hits you instantly. A bunch of dull looking knives and cleavers lay next to the meat. Besides the light of a single small candle, it's dark here.
[ +- ] This kind of vibe
OOC:
Everyone who ate from the table in the dining room make a DR12 toughness check to see if you can hold your vomit.May 20, 2025 7:14 pm
Oh boy.
Nope, Borda leans to one side and wastes that tasty dinner on the floor.

Elma
The thoughts and smells are too much for her and she lets loose on a chair at the table. After she is done, she wipes her mouth and takes out her oil lamp.
"Ugh, a-anyone have a light?"

Don't forget to reroll your omens, for those who had 'dinner'. Doesn't matter if you kept it in or not.When you look up, you notice the rotting meat clumping together into a large, monstrous, moving entity. It makes a slurping noise at you that you might interpret as a growl. It's looking vaguely humanoid but about twice the size of a man. It raises an arm with a large bone-claw at the end in a menacing fashion.
You have only moments to react, what do you do?

Jotna shakes her head and says, "Aw, hells no!"
She shrugs off her tunic, drops her staff and shield, and falls forward onto her hands, transforming into a giant lizard! Her underclothes shred as she does so, because she does not have time to undress fully, but her armor and weapons remain intact.

Elma
Elma squeaks in surprise and brings up her shield. She keeps it between her and the monstrous entity as she attempts to move behind the monster, putting the oil lamp away. If she has time, she will take out the dagger to keep away the monster and its bony extremity.

Giving @Dmbrainiac another day to respond.@Esidrix, judging by your action, I think you missed my last post about the monster. Have a look and see if you want to react differently.

OOC:
it's a free action to see how everyone gets into the fight. It will also have an effect on who the monster picks as a target.I suppose I can already roll for initiative, though :)
In Mork Borg there's only 1 initiative roll. According to a rules a player should roll it, but since it can lead to a double roll in PbP, im rolling it instead.
The result was a 2, meaning the monster goes first.
I will respond to your pre-combat actions tomorrow :)
