"Hey Yondor, what was down there?" *We may need to wait for him*
*Yes, we may*
"Just. well, darkness. I woke up down there. Don't know how I got there, though."
"Okay! Well, I'll head down then!" He turns on his flashlight, and lowers himself through the trapdoor.
You find yourself in a dark, dirty basement.
Can I see the walls?
If you walk over to them, yes. From where you're standing, no, it's too dark.
I walk around, looking for something. Just an object. Any object.
You find an old mop.
I investigate it
Turns out, on closer inspection, it's still an old mop.
I grab it, and take it with me
Is there anything else in the basement?
There's a dust covered desk.
Does it have any drawers, or anything on it?
Yes, 2 drawers and a small box on top of it.
I shall investigate the box.
It opens easily, no lock or anything. Inside, you find the box is lined with a gold coloured velvet. Resting on this golden velvet, is a perfectly shaped cupcake, which is covered with strawberry icing and has a cherry on top.
The third legendary snack has been found!
This snack has now been ticked off the list. Do with it what you like, eat it, throw it away, it doesn't matter. It has been ticked, you can't lose that now.
I'll look in the drawers now.
Also,
YES!!!!!
The other drawers are empty, apart from one of them having a pen and a notepad inside.
I'll take them both.
You successfully take the pen and notepad.
I now eat my snack.
The cupcake tastes delicious. You gain the following benefits:
You gain the extra attack feature
You are immune to exhaustion
You're now glowing, which gives you light in dark rooms, but also makes enemies target you more
You can no longer be stealthy, and any creature within 30ft of you will automatically know you're there (This also gives you an 100% chance of encountering Mary in the corridor, whilst the event: Mary's Rathis active)

I want you to know. You are going to lose. You are going to lose badly. You’re going to lose badly and it’s going to be awesome.
Inside you find a small chocolate cookie, which has little red flecks in it as well as chocolate chips.
Yondor breaks off a piece and then hands the rest of the cookie around to share. He nibbles on his piece thoughtfully.
You nibble the cookie.
*Dun dun dun!*
As soon as you eat the smallest bit, the rest of the cookie disappears, along with everyone else's pieces of it. The cookies magical properties take effect:
Choco-Chilly-Cookie
Your attacks deal an extra 1d4 damage, and inflict the burningcondition.
You take no effect from the event: Ground floor freeze.
Your attacks have disadvantage, unless you are carrying the water bottle equipment item.
*Ok that's awesome*
"Oh gosh, this is kinda spicy! But tasty!" Yondor grins. "Why do I feel so... good? And, uh, do you have any water? It's only getting spicier."
"Here, drink up." Drummer hands you the water bottle equipment item. This results in you dropping the compass. (Only one equipment item at a time)
"Thanks Drummer." Yondor takes a big gulp, then puts the lid back on and sticks the bottle into a deep pocket in his maroon cloak.
"Seems like I've got a decent amount of luck, so I'm gonna go look for more snacks!" He heads out the door once more.
"See you later!"
The corridor turns right.

Alara glances at Corvi’s watch, then at her own. “I think your watch is going super fast.”
"Yeah, I know." Corvi sighs, and the watch suddenly reverts to half the speed of Alara's. "It's like it has a mind of its own. Sometimes it even ticks backwards or just stops working altogether." 10 seconds exactly after its half-speed change, it starts ticking at quadruple speed.

“Oh wow! That’s kinda cool. Your watch like stretches time. Or shrinks it.”
"I guess it is kinda cool..." Corvi stares at the watch, a sad smile on her face.
“Why so sad?” Alara asks.
Gtg for now. I’ll talk to you guys later!
*Well, I'll just leave this here for when you get back.*
"This watch was from an old friend of mine... She... moved away two years ago." *Roll insight*

Corvi's eyes don't meet with yours, and they seem to be holding tears back. You can tell that whatever happened to her friend, it wasn't as simple- or as pleasant- as them just moving away.

Bits is heading back to the fort to show off his wooden spoon and cracker
"Forgive the mess, I am trying to regain my sanity again."
[Taken by my gourmand boyfriend]
Corvi seems comfortable in the pillow fort. She looks down at her watch, though, and frowns.
The watch itself is an odd device: It never seems to work correctly. Currently, it's going at thrice the normal speed.

I'm Hecate! I've got a lotta titles, and there's no way this sig space would hold them all lol
