Alalia Ridgely
no subject
A massive stone door grinds open, revealing the trap-laden hell labyrinth beyond. No doubt full of treasure. Elodie runs in, face full of wonder and excitement. ]
This is an ancient ruin! This is what treasure hunting is all about! I can't believe you get to do this all the time, I thought places like this only existed in books!
[ Someone should probably slow her down before she triggers something. ]
no subject
... or at least it would be if she weren't about to go headlong into danger. ]
Ah-- you can't just go running in like that!
[ ... says Alalia, as she runs in after Elodie. She reaches out to catch her sister's arm, just to keep her from going too far into the ruin. Not before they've scoped at least some of it out. ]
We'll have to take this slowly. We have no idea what kind of traps are set up in here -- or what sort of state the passages might be in.
no subject
Right! Right. Sorry.
[ Elodie stops, glancing more uncertainly towards the wider tomb ahead. ]
So... how do you find hidden traps, anyway?
no subject
[ She huffs out a little sigh but there's a smile on her face as she steps forward, surveying the tomb carefully. There's ways to test this but they're a little easier when you're alone. The last thing she wants is to accidentally put Elodie in danger. Or get them both killed, of course. ]
Knowing what sort of era the tomb is from is a good start. It gives you an idea of what sort of mechanics and magic the trap-layers would have access to. This one isn't quite old enough that I would rule out any residual magic but... I can't feel anything. Can you?
no subject
No... wait.
[ One of the threads trembles almost imperceptibly, as if being stirred by a tiny shift of the wind. She holds her breath for a moment, trying to feel it again, but there's nothing. Did she imagine it? ]
I'm not sure, but... I think I might have felt something from the ceiling?
no subject
Just something? That's a good start-- have you got any idea what it might be? We might be able to find another entrance if it seems to dangerous to try and disable.
no subject
[ Elodie casts out a couple threads and fastens them to different parts of the ceiling, probing for anything that stands out. The shape of the ceiling's kind of weird, but...
The entire tomb shakes, in response to a light tug. Cracks splinter the ceiling, as parts of it dislodge themselves, falling to the ground in an enormous cacophony. As they do, they assemble into their intended shape - an immense scorpion made of stone and debris. ]
I... I think I found it.
no subject
[ Wonderful. Just wonderful. A giant stone scorpion is exactly what she needs to be fighting right now. With a sword and all. Thank goodness for magic, honestly.
She hums under her breath -- a soft, drawn-out note that makes a dim spark light in her eyes. Just enough to make her a little more resilient, a little stronger and faster. She'll see what else they need once they actually start trying to take this thing to pieces. ]
How is it animated? Is there any way we can get it to drop its form?
no subject
I've never seen a golem in person! I don't know what to look for!
[ Panic is an adventurer's worst enemy. ]
no subject
[ She spits the curse out under her breath and skitters away from Elodie to try and draw the scorpion's attention away from her. Elodie's far from defenseless but Alalia isn't about to let her test herself on something like this.
She has her sword draw and, still darting about to keep the golem's attention, calls out - ]
Something must be animating it! An energy, a binding spell of some kind -- there has to be something to dispel, especially in a golem this old!
no subject
[ Calm down, Elodie. You've never met a golem before, but you've studied as hard as anyone.
... ]
...It's not intelligent! It has to have some simple principle dictating how it acts, like pursuing heat, or movement! We should be able to trick it!
no subject
[ That's all Alalia gets out before that gargantuan tail comes down about an inch from where she's standing. Rock and debris spray out, skimming the exposed skin on her hands and face and she staggers back, choking on the kicked-up dust. ]
Keep-- keep stock still where you are unless it comes for you and we'll see what draws it!
no subject
[ Elodie freezes, straining to not move so much as a single muscle. Will it work...
The scorpion doesn't seem to even notice she's there. ]

A bit short, the kind of girl you'd call 'petite'. Dresses in Standard Fantasy Adventure gear with a sort of Atelier-ish vibe. She's got fluffy pigtails (see icon lol) and dark brown hair and eyes, both with a very slight red sheen to them. Generally carries a mage staff about as tall as she is. ]
