[IC] Lost in Dreams [Jordan]

ericthered · 03-09-2013, 04:20 PM

Jordan's dreams were troubled that night. He dreamed of a large market square in a very old town. Everyone bustled around with donkey carts or hand carts, buying and selling goods. Guards lazily watched the whole thing. He couldn't understand the language, yet something sounded ... familiar.

The dream shifted, and he saw a dark cellars with figures hooded in black robes, drawing symbols in chalk on the ground, and chanting.

It shifted again, and he saw an army of knights, marching down a long road...

He woke up in a dry and dusty corner, near the market. Several people sang out the virtues of their wares. It was early morning.

((huh...that was fast))

This wasn't the first time Jordan had woke up in a strange place, it probably won't be the last. When he woke up however the city around him looked more foreign than he was used to. "where am I?" he thought as he scratched his long, white beard. A second later he realized he was naked. Startled, he desperatly tries to find something to wear before try to sneak up to the alley way opening and trying to see where he was.

((so do I roll the scrounging roll or do you?))

((crap I got 14...is a tie with the skill a pass or a fail?))

ericthered · 03-09-2013, 04:48 PM

A tie would be a pass.

Jordan manages to find some old scraps of cloth to tie around his waste. He won't be "clothed" but he won't be naked either.

The place looked like similar to depictions of arabian markets, quite similar to his dream. People bought and sold fruit, vegetables, fish, clothing, and pottery. They spoke in a sing-song language, one He'd never heard before. There are no mountains or hills, or even tall buildings on the horizon.

((sweet))

Jordan just looked in shock "is this a...dream? It could be...yet it feels real..." He walked out of the alleyway and tries to look for a container to panhandle with ((got a 10 so I guess I succeed)) and try to earn money by begging ((got a 12))

ericthered · 03-09-2013, 05:01 PM

How long are you going to panhandle for?

crretin · 03-09-2013, 05:03 PM

((half an hour probably))

ericthered · 03-09-2013, 05:04 PM

Jordan manages to pick up a few coins from passerby, but not much. The coins are copper, and have strange faces and letters on them.

crretin · 03-09-2013, 05:08 PM

((wait what's the exact amount of copper coins that I got?))
