Fantasy 101 Pt.3
Soon the girls found themselves outside of town on the road. The trees here had changed colors and it was raining red, orange, and yellow leaves as they walked the path. Etoile, Katie’s character, explained that when they would have character tasks to do that a dice would appear and that they would have to roll to see if they achieved there tasks. The group of girls enjoyed the walked but it was short as they arrived at the spot that Etoile had come in contact with goblin.
“I am afraid I do not know where the goblin is, I do hope some of you have tracking skills.” Etoile said.
“Wait, you don’t know? But you’re the game master?” Krista asked.
“Yes, because as a game master, I can’t tell you strait out. You my ‘play’ to find out.” Katie explained to Krista.
“Oh, Oh oh,” Tamora said with excitement, “I have the perfect tool for this. I found it in the lost and found of the café. It’s a tracker tool.”
At that time a large, about the size of a soccer ball dice appeared in from Tamora.
“So I get to roll to see if it works?” Tamora asked.
“Nope, you have to roll to see if you have it. Your character flaw makes it so you don’t always have things you think you have.” Etoile replied.
Tamora picked up the dice, that turn the color yellow and rolled it across the group. It landed on the number three. Tamora then gave a half smile to the group and then looked away with some shame that she knew that roll meant that she didn’t have the object that she had talked about.
“I do have a location spell in my magic spell list.” Myung Tal said.
Myung Tal then picked up the dice; it then turned a pearl purple color. She let it roll to the ground and it stop on the number ten. Myung Tal looked hopeful to Etoile, but Etolie just shook her head. Myung Tal spell casted but didn’t show anything more then they where in the forest, and the forest was rather large. Jaselle was going to sit this out but because everything was to dirty to sit on, she just stood it out.
“Ok, let me show you how a true tracker skill.” Oakley said.
Oakley picked up the dice, that then turned forest green, and let it roll and it landed on nineteen. Oakley got a ranger bonus plus five to her roll as it was a character strength, giving her a total of twenty-four. She grinned at Etoile who gave a heavy sigh. Goblin foot prints became alight and everyone then saw right away where the goblin had gone. After thirty-feet the glowing foot prints stopped. The sun was also making it clear that it was getting late afternoon.
“What?” Oakley said looking at Etoile.
“You have to make a tracking check every thirty feet. It’s a normal ruling.” Etoile said answering Oakley.
“I want to try my tracking spell again.” Myung Tal said.
With that said the dice reappeared, is it had disappeared after Oakley’s roll earlier. Myung Tal took the dice and it turned from green to purple and rolled it, to get a thirteen.
“Sadly, you need a fourteen.” Etoile said.
Myung sighed and gave the dice to Oakley. Oakley then rolled a natural twenty, this time a light path was made.
“Show off.” Tamora said seeing the glow on Oakley’s face.
The group walked on and before they knew it they arrived at a pond with a stunning waterfall and the glowing path lead right across the water and throw the waterfall. It was now dark and the two moon in the sky was lighting the area.
“Is it really so late, it feels like we have only been playing for maybe a little over an hour. I guess we need to head home now.” Jaselle said.
“We really have only been playing for an hour and forty-five minutes. Time goes differently here in the game. I say we make camp for the night before investgating the waterfall.” Etoile said.
“I’m hungry.” Tamora spoke up.
“Player needs beverage, badly.” Myung Tal added.
“Didn’t you say you where going to order pizza?” Oakley asked.
“I did, sort of. That is what took me so long to get here. I asked my mom to order it at a certain time and gave her the money we collected to pay for it. I bet it’s arrived now, so we should head back to my house and grab it. Unless you want me to just go get it and we will eat it here?”
“Hey look, fireflies.” Tamora said and was about to touch one but Oakley stopped her.
“Remember the last time you messed with fireflies in a Katie game? I think we should go to your place, Katie.” Oakley, Alicia said.
Tamora, Crystal, then remembered and quickly placed her hands in her pockets. At that time a doorway appeared in the miss of dark out lighted trees. The group then all exited the fantasy world to go and enjoy some pizza.
