Time to dust off those character sheets, pull the backstories out from some dying neuron in your brains, and skim through the 15 pages of stupid jokes and really intricate character building in the HoL group PM, cause we’re back in business! Hopefully for good, but probably not. But we still hope.
Here’s a short recap of where everyone’s at, individually, because the entire party is split. If I forgot anyone, or if anyone wants to join back in, or opt out of this reanimated corpse of a PbP, just let me know! Yay! Cool!
Anna:
CONT. IN PMS! Check em!
Cal:
The moving tongue of rock beneath your feet starts to give out from underneath you, a great bellowing and groaning noise booming through your very soul. The ceiling and the floor in front of the gigantic cliffside roll together, and the shockwaves reach very edge of the cliff as it kicks you up in the air. Your body is slammed into the roof and you take 3 bludgeoning damage, before falling down the infinitely deep hole in the ground! After only a few feet, all the walls fade out into more nothingness.
You have only one opportunity to use any actions, bonus actions, and movement you have as if you were in a round of combat before something happens. So choose wisely. What do you do?
Chiv:
I don’t think I ever PMed you about what Chiv saw underneath the glass floor so check! Your! PMs! If you wanna continue, that is lol
Pally:
For the sake of trying to get Pally caught up with the rest of the party (I hope you don’t mind, mate), after going down a few hallways and opening a few doors in the slightly archaic, empty home with vomit-inducing 60’s decor, I think I know what you’re might be trying to figure out. If you can remember why you were doing what you were doing and make a high enough investigation roll, I’ll either tell you if your idea is right or wrong, OR (if you don’t remember what you were trying to find out, cause it’s been a while) I’ll give you a clue as to the nature of the house itself. Sound good?
tl;dr: roll me an investigation check, and if you remember, mind telling me what your train of thought was when you went around looking through different doors in the house and walking from room to room? If you don't remember that's alright lol
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
*i think Pally was just looking for resources and weapons, while also hoping to find out some secrets of the house* *also i need to find the char sheet lol, brb*
Investigation check! 16

Investigation check! 21
*take your time mate*
In your search, you're able to find a few small kitchen knives, and a full pantry of food, and an entire households' worth of clothes. If there's anything else specifically you're looking for, I'll tell you if you find it. And what do you exactly mean by secrets, what questions do you want answered?

She takes the knives, some of the clothes, and as much food as she can. She doesn’t look for anything specifically, but i think the main question is why the rooms are moving around lol

Pally's able to take the supplies with little to no hassle. And, while why the house is moving around is not a thing I can tell you until later, I will say that she notices that the rooms are only moving around periodically. I roll a dice (can't remember which but I'll update this when I find out) every time someone goes through a doorway or enters a room, and if it lands on a 1 or a 2, they get moved to another room in the house that is also determined by a set of die. So as of right now there's a 1/10 chance of moving into a completely new area of the house.
Any more questions?

Pally conducts several tests with objects of different shapes and sizes regarding the rooms, like putting half of the object through the doorway and then turning around, to see if it gets chopped in half or anything. She also tests opening and closing doors at different speeds to see if the rooms change, and turning around and turning back at different speeds, and walking different lengths from the door.

We don't need spoilers for this anymore cause it's just testing things out lol
So the first test doesn't yield any results; it just looks like you put like an apple in a doorway and keep turning around and around frantically like a child trying to catch their toys animating when they're not looking.
The second test also doesn't yield any results; whatever's on the other side of the door stays that way, no matter how fast or slow you open and close the door, or at what distance you do it from.

Cal yells, the force of the shockwaves knocking all the air out of her. She throws up her hands to protect her face as she slams into the rock. Then, as she feels the ground fall away from beneath her, she casts Levitate on herself before shutting her eyes tight and praying.

Pally walks through one of the doors, closes it behind her, then opens it again.

The spell seems to work... Slowly opening your eyes you realize you're not falling anymore. There's only one problem. Everything has crumbled. Looking all around you, you realize that even the mouth of the giant your stepped into is gone... You are hanging in the air like a spider on a single filament of web with nothing to hold on to. The space around you is darker than the fathoms below, darker than anything you've ever known. It's grainy. It's oppressive. From a lack of light and the immense strain of looking into a darkness so devoid of anything you can't tell the difference between when your eyes are shut or open, your eyes start to make their own hallucinatory colors. For a single disorienting moment you think you've died.
You're hanging in the air, and now have a 20 foot movement speed as per the spell. But there's really nowhere else that you can see to go to, it's too dark. What do you do now?
