Theme Music is now mandatory As the staircase rises further up, the vines become more frequent, eventually sporting a few bulbs and flowers here and there, with the natural light glowing ever brighter. At the very top step, the claustrophobic walls immediately cease, and give way to a wondrous place: A veritable jungle in the top of the pyramid! While the staircase is in a small clearing, most everything beyond a few meters is completely impossible to see through; all it is is brush and moss. The top of the pyramid (from the inside) is visible, and appears to be some kind of gigantic skylight, allowing the sun's rays to filter through to this natural setting. Scuttling through the brush, a heap of Bug Pokemon are visible from the get-go, but disappear as soon as they spot an intruder. A thin path can be discerned from the stairs, but it is incredibly thin, only a few inches wide. Going through the path, one would still be cutting through most of the brush.

Pulling out his flashlight, Jones looks around this strange place... "Reya, I've hit the bottom! I'll see if I can find anything!" Perception: [result]15&6:1:4:1,4d6,3,15&4d6+3[/result] |

The flashlight isn't a ton of help in this cloudy, headache-inducing storm... all he can see is a cloud of orange and a small flap at the bottom, just in front of where he stands... presumably the center of the bulb, and where the spores are emerging from. |

Steeling himself, Jones will kneel down, and attempt to gently pry open the flap to investigate the true source of these spores. |

Opening the flap leads to a glimpse of darkness below... but it's quite impossible to see down there due to the storm of spores. A closer look would be required. |

Jones reaches around, seeing if there's any kind of ladder or anything else near the edge he'd be able to use to descend, and more importantly, ascend with later. Perception: [result]19&4:4:6:2,4d6,3,19&4d6+3[/result] Edited by Lockdown, Mar 22 2014, 12:21 AM.

There is nothing around... it's a drop or nothing. |

Jones considers for a long moment, before shaking his head. He'll attempt to ascend back up to the top of the Bulb, and hook up with Reya again. He's going to need the proper equipment, and backup for this. Acrobatics: [result]11&3:2:2:2,4d6,2,11&4d6+2[/result] Edited by Lockdown, Mar 22 2014, 12:34 AM.

It's a slippery climb, but Jones manages to get up high enough to squeeze between the petals of the bulb. It's nice to breathe fresh air again. |

Carefully sliding down and out of range of the spore cloud, Jones first releases Ursula. "Hose me down please, I don't want to get paralysed taking this thing off." The Tentacool obliges, and as soon as he's sure that the spores have been washed off, Jones shucks his suit and looks over at Reya. "Well, good news bad news time. Good news, there's definitely some kind of chamber under the bulb that's the source of the spores. And probably where we might be able to find what we're looking for. Bad news is that it's a straight drop down and I couldn't see the bottom. So we're going to need equipment. Which means heading over to Violet. If we're lucky, they'll have a store there that has rope or even rope ladders, some pitons to secure it, and a gas mask for you. If they don't, then we're going to need to go to Goldenrod, it's the closest place with a full department store, and if they don't have the stuff we need, no one will. You up to the challenge? |

Stefan shakes his head. "No thank you, I don't want to risk waking it. You're free to nab one of the other ones if you'd like though." He attempts to wrap things up with a pokeball. Accuracy [result]5&5,1d20,0,5&1d20[/result] Capture [result]5&5,1d100,0,5&1d100[/result]-7 |
