Into Darkness - A Dungeon World Adventure

In a moment of clarity, Robin realizes that the scream did not come from the brush, instead distorted by whatever curse has befallen these woods. Rather, he examines the treetops and perceives a hulking, black form nestled on a branch above the party. It looms directly over Zogolli, studying him with a pair of yellow, hungry eyes. The exact nature of the creature is unknown to you, but you can just make out a vaguely feline silhouette, and its strange protrusions. As Robin looks directly at it, he finds it difficult to look away, or shout a warning. Some kind of power is tampering with his ability to form coherent thoughts, yet he knows that Zogolli, is in great danger, and so will be the rest of the group.

The beast flexes its limbs, then turns to look upon the perplexed thief. Robin gazes at what might be a perverse parody of a grin, before it turns its attention back to Zogolli and drops from the tree. The odd power straining Robin's thoughts is lifted, and reality snaps back to him.

What do you do?!

Technically, it's OOC talk, but putting it in the IC would probbly make it easier to reference.

@DuthguyYour roll result is in!

Robin

You try your hardest to remain calm as chaos unfurls around you. As the thief, you've been in plenty of rough spots before, and you've gotten by with quick reflexes and intuition. You study the situation before your eyes, relying on what you like to call your "sixth sense."

No matter who you dedicate your song to, I'm sure both the Wilderdeep and its noisy occupant will both hear.
No need to roll yet; I have something in mind. Just play your heart out!

Into Darkness - A Dungeon World Adventure

@AristoHmm... so how do I roll for seduction again?

@ClocktowerEchos

Well, there isn't a true "seduction" or charm action. What you could do is bash your gong and try to play a song to the Wilderdeep, or whatever thing is nearby.
No telling how that might go, maybe eldrich forests have a thing for percussion?

I'm kinda surprised nobody's used a 'discern realities' action.

Don't stick your dick in crazy

@Grey

^This.

@ClocktowerEchos
I can't confirm or deny whether the Wilderdeep itself is alive or not, but if you have an idea, roll with it!

Into Darkness - A Dungeon World Adventure

Say hello to your party's thief!

Into Darkness - A Dungeon World Adventure

@DuthguyDon't feel like you're intruding; we've really only just begun and it won't be a strain to include you. I'd be happy to have a fifth!

Into Darkness - A Dungeon World Adventure

@DuthguyTechnically; we could fit in another player or two. It'd just be awkward fitting other chars into the story, as we've already begun. But, if no one objects to pretending you were there all along...

Did you have a concept in mind?
