Quote: Your character(s) must interview two villagers. Villagers are all cloaked for some reason. Villagers may get disinterested when you ask too many questions, your goal is to acquire as much IC information as possible. Maybe they hold the key in your leaving. Roll 1d10 and match your dice roll to the result below. That is the response they give you to your question. Your character can ask any question they formulate with the response always being the result below. If you roll the same number, you get the same response. 1. The villager glowers at you but does not reply to your question 2. The villager seems busy chopping firewood and is fastidiously ignoring you 3. The villager turns to look at you. They wave... at someone past you. 4. The villager is fishing. They reel in an invisible fish.. or is it just nothing. 5. The villager responds with a hearty grunt. 6. The villager looks you straight in the eye. " No." 7. The villager seems glum beyond their cloak. They mutter a few words involving the terms 'despair' and 'death'. 8. The villager is too busy looking at their toes. 9. The villager is cooking roast ghost fish, it smells delicious. They take out a skewer, offer you it, and then eat it before you can accept. 10. The villager seems passed out. Maybe you should leave them alone...

Bren had seen what seemed like hundreds of villagers since the bus crash, but he honestly had no idea how many there really were. Most of them were cloaked, and when he did see their faces it was only for a second. He didn't want to approach them after the way they'd been pushing him around, but what if some of them knew what was going on? It might be worth a shot to ask.
He was going to ask. Someday.
Right now he was standing in a clearing watching students, horsemen, and hooded creatures pass from one place to another and wondering who he should talk to first. At this rate, it would probably be nobody.

Among the cloaked figure he had seen, there was one standing and stared at his direction while holding a cat. Her cloak opened at the front, revealing a set of gothic style outfit inside and it barely hung on her body. The cat she was holding had a nifty mustache, she walked closer quietly. Arynek won't approach a male actively unless she knew who he was. In other words, the man she was getting closer was suspected for a familiar creepson. When she was a few steps from him, she reached her upper torso out to peek at him for a confirmation. He was really the guy she talked on a fair organized by Amityville, on an open day. Yet, she had no idea how to greet him properly and not awkward and sudden.

Luckily, Brenley recognized Arynek easily enough once she got close and no greeting was necessary to spark a smile in his eyes. The last time he had seen her he had been sitting behind a table, colorful rocks and vials all around, and he might have seemed a lot friendlier. Shorter, too. Now he was kind of scratched up and tired-looking, and behind him was a giant stone in a wagon that seemed out of place in this busy area.
He reached out slowly as if a quicker movement might scare her away. "Your cat has a mustache."

It was delightful and slightly surprising the boil remembered her. They met at an Amityville's open day and just chatted for a short duration. He showed her his impressive invention and she promised to help with his experiments in return. It was a precious time. Blushing mildly, which unfortunately was clear to see on a pale face like hers, "It does, how can a meowstache called that without a mustache?" As if agreeing the ghoul's words, the cat meowed. "Hello Brendley," she still remembered his name, "You got onto the wrong bus as well?" Arynek blushed more as she lightly held his fingers for a hand shake. The rosy color on her pale cheeks made the shadow look much healthier. Shadow Void, a shadow clan with abnormal pale skin tone, with grey-purple under tone. Even eased up with the presence of her cat, she was still the shy Arynek, her voice was still light and of small volume. As if she would blow away with the wind next minute.

"That's true," he replied with a chuckle. "A meowstache without a mustache would just be... a meow, I guess. And yes, I suppose I did get on the wrong bus. I didn't think it was wrong at the time, but this place is a lot different than I thought it would be." It was weird that there were so many creeple from school here too. Maybe they had all been summoned? It was unpleasant to think that he could be manipulated while he was awake just like he could while he was sleeping. Unless he wasn't awake...
"I was going to ask some questions of the villagers here and try to find out more about this place." He noted her blush, but kept thoughts on it to himself. He might have smiled less than other creeple, but he liked Arynek's peaceful demeanor and he didn't want to make her uncomfortable. "If you have anything you want to know I can ask that too."Meegane i'm sorry i pushed you to tag yesterday <3 i was just bouncy take all the time you need dearest meg
also rolling for this for fun but i failed :B

The meowstache gave a low meow as if saying it didn't want to be a meow without mustache, together with Brendley's words, the shy ghoul as amused and made silver laughter. The gentle small smile subsided and faded naturally, "I was supposed to get some unique flour from a village near the town....here, it's nothing familiar but the fog...even though not a big problem is unsettling. It feels like breaking into another world where you know nothing about it...." Her eyes nervously shifted as she spoke. The arms holding the cat cringed at the thought and her face went pale again. "Can-Can I go with you?" Arynek said, it felt much calmer to walk with someone she knew. "I have nothing to ask besides how to go home, my Uchitels would be worried if I don't get home before twelve." She shook her head, fondled the cat from its head down the spine lightly and gently. "I don't think we can take the same bus back home....the serpent was gone, same as the driver." Smerdle IT'S ALRIGHT <3 It's almost my noon when you tag me, so everything's fine~ Do you want me to try maru's thing? XD

"It does feel quite ominous," Bren agreed. He hadn't been doing anything as worthwhile as looking for ingredients when he had boarded the bus, but it still felt weird being here, like Arynek said. Again he wondered if he had actually gotten himself mixed up in one of those dreams he'd been pulled into more times than he wanted to be, but he pushed those thoughts away. This was real. He wasn't carrying around a lantern-weapon or transforming into an angry gryphon, and he remembered how he had gotten here and his name and who he knew. Everything was fine.
"Yes, please come along," he said with a nod. There were plenty of quieter cloaked creeple he could start with, ones that wouldn't scare—
"HEEEELLOOOOOO!" one of the figures said, passing entirely too close as Brenley turned to head into the fog. The boil took a step back, holding out his hands, which luckily seemed to calm the creature.
He'd had plenty of questions to ask before, about where the fog had come from and how they could get another snake and what they were meant to do, but they had been surprised out of him. Instead, Brenley said, "I... um... hello?" which wasn't a question at all. He could feel the figure judging him, always judging. It said nothing as it turned and walked away, as if shouting hello was the only thing it knew how to do.
"Okay," Brenley said to Arynek once the other creature was gone. "I was not expecting that."Meegane you could, i don't mind >u<

Ominous indeed. It wasn't the first time she dragged into unexplained events like that. Once, she joined a tour to visit the Four Clan island but the island blown up. Another time she had a weird dream about seven kings. Maybe it was the reason why she didn't freak out, yet, she still felt worried about what might be coming. The unknowns was what she afraid of. If she was with her Uchitels, she'd grabbed onto them firmly so that her soul would find peace. However, she was alone, thus her cat became the driftwood as she wasn't brave enough to cling to Bren. She was startled by the loud villager as it greeted the boil, the tendrils which were gracefully shifting all came to a jerk. The ghoul gulped like a scared cat. She watched quietly and gingerly, holding her cat while Bren tried to reply. It might be unhappy with his slow response that it stomped off. The ghoul opened her mouth a few times, trying to say something but she didn't know what to say at all. She sighed and shook her head at Bren, "I didn't expect that either....the one I encountered was much cooler...." With a meow, the Meowstache jumped out from her bosom and ran away. "Noooooo, mister, come back." Flustered, she chased after the cat, begging she won't lose it again. While running, she looked back and hope Bren would follow. When the cat finaly stopped and washed its face, she and later Bren found them near a lake. Someone was fishing and made an action that suggested something was caught. Arynek tilted her head at the end as she saw nothing, without thinking, she gently tugged the clothes of Bren who was next to her naturally and asked, "Do you see anything?" She blinked her red eyes, and shortly noticed what she had done. The pale hand on the fabric recoiled, "I-I'm sorry." She bent down to hold her cat, hoping it would completely block her flushed face. She almost shoved her face into the mass of fur if she could. "I'm so sorry!" There was vague mutter coming behind the cat, and Bren would realize the tendrils seemed to originated from the cloak curled up and squirmed as if it was alive. Quote: 4. The villager is fishing. They reel in an invisible fish.. or is it just nothing. Smerdle Only if you want, because 2d6 for citizen lol

Brenley peered at the empty fishing rod. "No, I don't see anything at all," he whispered, hoping the villager wouldn't hear and take offense. "Excuse me?" he said, now loud enough so that the figure could hear. "Did you catch something?"
He didn't notice that the villager's only response was to look at its toes, but that was because Arynek was getting rather upset. At first, Bren couldn't figure out why, but then he recalled she had tugged at his clothes to get his attention. He smiled for a second before realizing it might offend her and smoothing his face again. "There's nothing to be sorry about. We're on an adventure and sometimes clothes get tugged." His smile returned, smaller this time. "I, um, won't tell anyone if it'll get you in trouble." He'd heard of worse things, demon scarelings being locked away for mingling with monsters, that sort of thing.Quote: 8. The villager is too busy looking at their toes. Meegane i think a dragon would have been too much for us XD

Quote: 6. The villager looks you straight in the eye. "No." "It's manners." She explained with the fading blush. "It's inappropriate for unmarried woman to touch unmarried man, my Uchitels said......" Her eyes looked downward. It was a misconception that the over-protective parents taught to the innocent ghoul. She felt she need to do something to compensate it, holding her cat, she stepped forward and repeated the question again. The villager turned his head to her that made her cringed and threw her a "no". She was so confused that her head tilted about 45 degree, she could see something struggling at the end of the fishing line. Baffled, she turned her head to Bren. "Does he hate me?" She wasn't sure if creeple like her appearance. In her concept, shadow shouldn't be as pale as she do. Smerdle OK then, we will take our own paces biggrin

"Oh." He had actually expected an answer similar to the one she gave, but thinking about such possibilities and hearing them were two different things. Now it was his turn to blush, but he didn't get nearly as pink as the monster ghoul and it faded quickly. "Well, like I said, I won't tell anyone. Your Uchitels will never know." He wondered who these Uchitels were. Something else to look into if he ever got back to school.
Surprised by the villager's negative response, Brenley shook his head at him once the creature had turned away.
"He might. But I wouldn't worry. He doesn't seem to like anyone." Bren chuckled. "Do you want to head back toward the bus? I don't think we're going to get any more information out of him."
