2/18/2014 - The Safehouse

What is the state of the room and furniture?

:: starts to head downstairs, but won't get in the way of the beefy ahrouns leading the way should they chosee too::

The room is a communal living space, all one room, with curtained off bathrooms (now open). There are bunkbeds nailed to the walls and a few dressers. There is blood, broken door and glass everywhere.

If there are additional enemies, they're down that hallway that was too narrow for us to go down in Crinos?

Yes, the stairs, intentionally or not, are far too small to fit a crinos Garou.

Back in control, Maeja shifts down to glabro to manage the stairs. She moves to follow Cam, ready to lead the charge back into battle.

"Worst case, we cross to the other side and run for it."

She says these words as if it is a struggle just to speak. As they step downstairs, she immediately shifts back to Crinos.

What did the Umbral downstairs look like? A single large room much like this leading up the stairs?

As his sister runs in, he tries to shout, "Wait!" in Icelandic.

Sorry, misunderstood. Several posts came through while I was typing and editing. I go when everyone else goes.

(let me know when y'all are good to go.)

(Yes, the layout is the same. you remember the Umbral door to the upstairs exploding as you approached it, that must have been the creatures getting into the upstairs.)

Here's to hoping...do the bathrooms have the sort of shower plumbing with the straight, six foot long pipe? If so, it's mine now. Improvised weapon.

"If there are so many of them, taking them all at once will be unwise. Let us see if we can't force them to engage us."

(You have a round free in there, you are now wielding a sewer pipe. Water sprays in the air. They'll have to put that on their insurance claim.)

" I don't want to die, " comes a sobbing voice from downstairs, " Please, oh god, please, I'm only seven years old."

Subterfuge.

Is that actually the voice of a child?

(Yes. He sounds terrified.)

A frustrated growl escapes the Voice of Muninn.

"So much for that plan...we should reinstate it if we have the luxury, but we must save our kin. Let's be off!"

(Getting a feeling everybody is going downstairs.. okay..)

You proceed down the stairs.  The front door and front hall are before you, the kitchen is to the right, the living room to the left.

There is blood everywhere.

Felicia Maddox, a Child of Gaia kin well known to the locals as an environmental activist and a leader in supporting Kinfolk rights lies with her skull impacted on the floor by the door.  Her abdomen is ripped open and her entrails lie in a stream leading to the basement.

There are other... pieces here, but nothing identifiable as an entire body.
The basement door is open.

"There were at least four more scents. How many past I cannot say."

:: will note the basement, and quickly peer into livingrooom and kitchen for survivers::

The flames of Rage seem to kindle within the theurge's eyes.  "Is this floor clear? Are we ready?"

(OOC: Is the child still crying?)

"Ready." Maeja snarls.
