But as agreed they did not enter until they were at full numbers. It was already dark, but the silence screamed far too loud with the feeling of eyes on them. Rowan was nervous, well that is an understatement. Ever since the conversation in the car she couldn't get one fear out of her head that town of Gary no longer belonged to the living. Of course, she had no way of knowing this was the case. It was just her nature to fear the worst had already happened and now they had just willingly drove into the heart of it all in the town center. Watching Jean Luc's car approach the motel parking lot, she could see just how out of place the witches must look. [color=007236]"Well if the vampires have eyes on the town, they certainly know we are here now. Probably know our faces too."[/color] Rowan nervously crossed her arms as she shifted her gaze to see if she could catch potential onlookers. This was a fruitless endeavor and almost convinced her that the feeling of being watched was all in her head. But the feeling was all too palpable. Upon Jean Luc's group getting out of the car Rowan addressed the group. [color=007236]"Well glad everyone made it here safe. Lets check in and get our stuff packed. I don't want to be out in the open too much longer."[/color] Getting a move on, she grabbed her bag out of Charlie's car and slung it over her shoulder. [color=007236]"Oh Charlie, when you guys are all settled in. Could you three head over to our room? We need to start getting a plan together."[/color] Rowan's talking incrementally grew in pace, but she managed to get all that out with a hitch. The fear of social situations seems a bit lessened when faced with this greater danger. Rowan waited for someone else to do all the check in business then continued to the room she was sharing. In general, Rowan hated the look of this place. The whole thing looked like it was going to crumble down and don't even start on the stench of mold. The rooms inside were better thank god, but not by much. At least it wasn't covered in mold, well for the most part anyway. Rowan dropped her bag by her single bed and sat waiting for everyone else so they could begin the meeting. [hr] About a half hour later the nine witches were all gathered in the same room. [color=007236]"Hi, uh, ok thanks everyone for coming. I called in everyone because I think we need to get a plan of action. Now I don't think we should do much tonight outside of making sure we can sleep safely. I think its best we have some of us check the perimeter and then have someone keep watch throughout the night on top of magic locks and all that.[/color] [color=007236]"Tomorrow, while the sun is up, I think its best we try to figure out just how much of this town has been taken over. They probably already know our faces, so I will work on the Circle of Shifting Guises ritual tomorrow."[/color] Rowan looked meekly at Summer who was across the room. [color=007236]"I could, um, use your help with it Summer. Same goes to anyone else who is good with rituals."[/color] [hider=Circle of Shifting Guises ritual] A bread and butter illusion ritual that takes 4 hours to complete. It leaves a circle on the ground, which only requires a witch to step inside and say a few words to disguise themselves. Effects of disguise last 1 to 2 hours based on the quality of chalk used. Rowan has higher quality chalk. Can be used until the circle of chalk is broken. This ritual is well known. [/hider] [hr] Speaks with: Summer [@Danvers]
