NEW CAMPAIGN - RAVENLOFT 1983

You walk along the edge of the room, heeding the warning of the Shell. Thankfully, the Shell or the mutated baby do nothing in return. As you move on to the next room, you can't help but wonder why are these horrible things here? Did Strahd bring these things here? From where? Is this area of the Castle even part of Barovia anymore? As you walk down the hall into the next room, you see more paintings on the walls. Some beautiful, some terrible. Where did they all come from? Has Strahd collected these - or did someone else....?

 ENCOUNTER: 10 - ENCOUNTER! DETERMINING WHICH: 11, 2

A curious object drifts into view, towards you all, as though held aloft by an invisible force. Determining object: 1

It's a gold candelabrum with three branches, each one holding a lit candle.

"Nobody touch anything." Briella is going to keep an eye out for anything strange, or for anything that might try to sneak up on them.

Perception:20

OOC: It’s Lumière from Beauty and the Beast!

”Ummm, guys?!  Are you seeing what I’m seeing?  That candelabra is floating towards us! Something invisible is carrying it, and I don’t particularly desire to see what it is.”

If its still moving Briella will step out of its way.

It drifts past you, and continues down the hall. Unless someone interacts with it, it just keeps floating down the hall.

Will update soon. Son wants to see Star Wars. Never heard if it.

Move along, but keep a wary eye on the mysterious candelabra.

Yeah, Martha will also just let it pass. As Briella said, let sleeping dogs lie. Strahd wants us to burn our abilities before we find him.

CYANOXANTHA

The paintings end in a room where there is just one left. This painting is unlike any you've seen so far, more or less, because the image is a two dimensional picture of a woman - like, a living mosaic. When she turns, she can only turn right, she cannot turn left, so to look at all of you requires her to appear at funny angles. It's actually a little disturbing. You notice the painting, as it's impossible not to, and once you do, she cries out a riddle:

"The first to cross this room must dance,
The second, sing to safety reach,
The third must bleed or risk mischance,
The fourth one dies between my teeth,
The next will be the first once more,
And do not cheat, i'm keeping score."

OOC: Alright, so question, when she says dies between her teeth, is that revivable? 

(Death come for everyone... >:) )

“If we take her literally, the fourth is not acceptable. Shall we send just three?” Kia asks. “If it is a riddle... I am not good at riddles,” she admits. 

OOC:Crispy was there any other way besides this room?

We have 6 people and 3 animals. If it really comes down to it. Scamp and Jitters could be the "4th" ones in the lines. Briarfang would need to be third and needs someone to cut his paw for him cause he can neither sing nor dance. He is wolf.

The order would have to go something like

1. Martha-dance
2. Kia-sing
3. Bors-bleed
4. Scamp-death

1. Imryll-dance
2. Briella-sing
3. Briarfang-bleed
4. Jitters-death

1. Stella-dance

"We could always run back to that previous room and grab that fetus looking thing, and have it be the 4th one..."

Is the your final answer, Shy?

"I wouldn't risk having both it and the shell after us."

Ok. Before I post what happens, in the spirit of Batman Vs. Superman:

Bors. Do you bleed?
