AR--New Portal From: raven@pawl.rpi.edu (Jennifer Lynn Piatek) Date: Mon, 13 Nov 1989 00:24:44 +0000 As you enter the portal, you find yourselves in a whirling maelstrom. There is obviously some sort of magical power struggle going on around you, as mystical energy bolts are flashing by constantly. The opening through which you can barely see the Flying Fox begins to close, and just after Kelso Redwing flies through, its closes completely. Suddenly, the whirling stops, and the floor seems to drop out from underneath you. You are now falling. You are plummeting through a dimensionless, featureless area of grey fog. You can see no bottom, nor any sides. After a length of time, (who's length you cannot determine), there is another crackle of mystical energy, and one by one, you are plucked from the endless fog. You now find yourselves in a simply decorated room. Seven chairs are seated around a semicircular table, and two more sit beside a large door facing the table (oddly enough, you notice that one of the these chairs has two headrests). On the wall behind the middle of the table hangs the device you recall seeing on the tunic of the Guardian that sent you here. There is suddenly the call of trumpets, and nine people enter the room through the he is supposed to be doing), and the other seven file to the table and sit down. Of the Seven, three are clad in armor--one in plate, and the other two in chain. All three carry broadswords fashioned in the same manner as Ruenic's, however none seem to have runes inscribed on them. The other four appear to be sorcerers. One of them, dressed in a long white gown, is carrying several sprigs of herbs, and something tells you that she is a healer. Hoods conceal the faces and identities of two more of the Seven. The final Mage stands at the head of the table right under the device, and addresses you: "I am Gwydion, oldest Elder of the Council of Seven, and temporary King of the Land of R'yleh. I assume that you have been sent here by Wearenth to help us with our Quest..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ***TECH NOTE*** I intend to put up moves every Sunday and Wednesday--meaning that you will have to email me your moves on Monday/Tuesday and Thursday/Friday/Saturday. If I don't have a move, then either your character will do nothing, or I will move for you (you may not like what happens, either). I don't mean to be hard- nosed about all this, but this seems the best way to ensure that the portal keeps moving and we don't end up waiting for everyone to post. If enough of you have problems with this, then I can stay only with a Sunday move, but I think everything will run smoother with two moves a week.
