The Oddestsey II: Return to Odd
Baron Update:
- Likes the idea of travelling to the village, might find more interesting equipment, maybe even some life forms.
- Suggests the notion of dismantling one of the hot air balloons and using the gas burner as a possible flame powered snow blower/melter, and using the rest of the balloon for random uses.
- The flame snowblower could be an effective weapon, and could even be mounted to one of the ice vehicles...Comment

Slightly more than 3 abilities lol, but Ill assume speed and eyesight and just because shes an elf so thats still fine.
Looks fine though, youll enter the sotry as soon as I come up with a decentmeans of doing so...
*****
Perry, quickly taking one of the satchells, goes and recovers his porsche and slips it into the tiny storage device in the bag.
Looking beneath the snow, Frank finds only somethign that isnt quite like anythign he has seen before even in his long career of evil. It looks like ectoplasm, but is black, and particularly foul smelling. Having found no sign of the fish he heads back to the camp...

Ill head to the hut and catch up with the others then go on to town.Comment

The Oddestsey II: Return to Odd
Yeah you dont have to, but Ill assume you will unless you explicitely state otherwise. Plus if you all go your separate ways itll be more annoying.
You could of course opt to break up into teams to explore and rendevous somewhere later.Comment

So all in favour of going to the village?
Makes it easier for me, expressing oppinions on the hot air balloon plans would also be good if possible.
But either way, as it stands, youll go in two of the ice vehicles and Baron will drive one and the Prof the other, with three passengers in each (including Dirges undead dog)
Be sure to say anything else you want from inventory you want later because its a lot fo effort to come back for it.
Speaking of inventories/items in a place - in future if you want a look at them please just ask for what kind of stuff you want to look for (which can just be somethign speicfic eg weapons, armour or just anything of interest to your character)Comment

The Oddestsey II: Return to Odd
Chapter 4
Loading everything together into two of the spider-like vehicles the party sets off along the river. One vehicle has the Baron, Brutus (taking up two seats) Dirge and Cerberus. In the other; Vengeance, Frank, Tarein and Perry.
After a last look at their first home in this strange world, they move out onto the ice. Despite looking somewhat ungainly the vehicles quickly prove their abilities: the feet on the legs are wide but barbed, spreading their weight while giving them excellent traction and steer far better than either of the drivers had anticipated. Somehow the river seems to have frozen right down to its bed, and peering out of the capsule they not only see the lumber lodged into the ground, but fish seemingly frozen solid in mid movement. There is almost certainly something unnatural, although what is a mystery.
They make quick progress and within half an hour they pass the next cabin, slightly smaller than the previous one but otherwise it seems doubtful that it has any provisions further than they already have.
As they pass down the river, they pass a particularly unusual site - the corpse of a bear, frozen solid as it dived into the river - even the splashes it was making seem to have formed some elaborate sculpture as if literally frozen in time.
They travel on further, passing two further huts, one seemingly in ruins, and the entire party suddenly feel sick - Frank recognises it as similar to the site of the Suckers disappearance, but far grander in scale€¦ They move on as quickly as they can€¦
Finally, a beeping from the PDA signals that they are seemingly at the destination, yet to the party it seems if they are still in the centre of the icebound forest. However, upon one banks is the shell of a snail. The shell itself if huge and ancient looking, being perhaps 20ft high with a ten foot diameter opening. Outside the entrance is stuck a pole with some long black and gold ribbons tied to it that flail wildly in the north wind.
All the party can hear is the sounds of the forest - the creaky of the trees, the odd bird and the squeaking of the ice beneath their vehicles, yet a smell on the wind is filled with the rich scent of cinnamon, cloves and other spices and some kind of delicious smelling roast meat€¦Comment

wanna try something, dunno if it will work
Perry controls cold, he can add cold, but Im not sure if he can also ABSORB cold. I wanna go to one of those random frozen fishes and try it out, see if I can free him.Comment

Perry concentrates upon the nearest fish he can see in the river, in this case a pike. It takes a lot more concentration than making it colder , but eventually after a few minutes he manages to create a small pocket of water around the fish and it swims around angrily, still trapped a meter beneath the ice.
Trying it again on a shoal of what appear to be stickleback it seems smaller fish arent able to survive the process (or perhaps werent able to be put in suspended animation as well as the bigger fish and they simple float around dead.
Looking at the rest of the base of the river, perry spots something golden shimmerign in the deep ice...Comment

Aaron?
Im gonna ask the Baron for some support here. His flame throwing katana should be able to melt most of the ice with less effort than my powers. But since I dont wanna damage the golden... thing, I prupose I take care of the last bit of melting since my powers are cleaner than a flame throwing katana is. I badly wanna see what this golden artifact might be.
How about it Aaron?Comment
