Rikke stealth 42 vs 33, 31, 28, and 25 success vs all

Rikke crept closer thankfully the girls talking where to absorbed in their conversation to notice her allowing her to pick up what they where saying. Mostly it was idle chit chat till one of them changed subject. "So what do you think of the freak they got chained up in Angelica's study?" One of the girls looked at her a little disgusted. "Thats not nice we shouldn't say such things about her like that she could be one of us soon." "Oh can it. I don't know what she is but as long as it stays in that study I could care less." "Stop it you two we need to head back down and clean the mistress's chamber or well be whipped again." With that the quartet of girls left for down stairs leaving Rikke by herself.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke smirked spitefully at the four women, sure maybe some of the girls did not agree with the "freak" part, but it was more than enough to ignite Rikkes hate 'Thank you, you stupid judgemental whores...' looks like Rikkes objective was "Angelica's study"... well atleast she knew what she was looking for, now to find it. And as an added bonus looks like Rikke will have the second floor all to herself.

The rogue waited patiently till the voices slowly faded away and looked around. She needed to find the study as soon as possible, no room for error now.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Sticking with her original plan Rikke stayed left where she came across an ornate door. Testing the handle she found it locked but with a little effort and luck the rogue popped the lock and proceeded inside quite as a mouse.

The room she found appeared to be an apartment well furnished with two doors in the wall to the right of Rikke the main room she was in was split nearly in half with a mini cooking area with its own cast iron stove that served a dual purpose of heat and food preparation. their was a small table with a few chairs as well as several end tables and couches. Other than the kitchen their was little else in the room to catch Rikke's eye save the two unknown locations behind the doors.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

This was built as a living area for someone, why else would there be a kitchen here... maybe there was a study here aswell. Rikke slowly crept across the room, though the 4 girls were downstairs there was one more wild card at play, Sasha daughter. Now then, which door to pick... the further one. The heroine passed by the first door and went to the one deeper into the room. Hopefully this was the right choice.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke entered the far room quietly searching for the study. However what she did find was a bedroom with another door paralle to the once she just came in. The room it self was modest in size with a large bed and two dressers. A small end table with a candle stick sat on it and bother where next to a large comfortable chair. An closet stood in one corner but nothing else caught Rikke's eye.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Taking mental note of the door in the bedroom, Rikke backed out. If there was a study here, chances were the entrance wasn't in the bedroom. There had to be a reason why this room was so carefully taken care of... perhaps Sasha provided quite nicely for her pets afterall. Hope burning in her Rikke slowly opened the other door she missed.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

This room proved to be far more interesting than the bedroom. For one it was not nearly as well kept as the other rooms with messy shelves filled with papers and vials empty or half full of strange liquids. The room seemed to lead into a larger room that was dark with a faint blue light emanating from an unseen corner as well as the sound of someone talking. "Come on dear drink up you need to take your medicine." "Na na na n n no" "Awww don't be that way the sooner you take your medicine the sooner we can get this over with." "No!" The sound of a loud sigh "Well we will just have to do this the hard way." A long silence followed only to be split with a crack of whip and a whimper. "Drink the potion." "No!" Another loud crack followed by a cry of pain. "Dear if you would only submit the easier and much more pleasurable your life will be." "What your doing is wrong!" Another crack and another whimper quickly followed by the sound of chains rattling and gurgling. "Right wrong its all about profit you'll see soon enough even if I have to beat sense into every day." The sound of a woman clearly crying. "There there this will be the last one of the night I promise now hold still."
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Screw subtelty! Rikke quickly took to her feet and rushed forward towards the source of the sounds! Jessica! There was hardly any doubt in the heroine mind, it was lover crying and being punished! The rogue quickly flipped the dagger in hand, she wasn't here to kill anyone... but knocking them out harshly was not out of the question. With her speed and vigor, chances were her attack would even catch the woman off guard.

Run towards the sounds, Lightning strike[use the daggers side or other end for non-lethal] the woman force feeding the girl.
Stealth check with a penalty for running?
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke ran to the noise or tried to the numerous tables and chairs in the way forced her to avoid them or ruin her whole approach. She had a choice screw the stealthy approach or keep her stealth up it would be impossible to do both.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

To heck with stealth, Jessica was right there! She doubted there would be any pre-emptive attacks or attempts to trap her. Afterall, an intruder this deep inside the brothel? Perhaps she'll be mistaken for one of the four girls rushing to warn the woman about something... maybe the guests went on rampage, one of the girls escaped. There's plenty of reasons for someone to dash to the woman...right?

Nevertheless, Rikke didn't give a darn about stealth right now. Her usual cautious nature got shoved out the window when after all this time Jessica was so close and in danger.

Go! Just go!

Discarding stealth for action Rikke charged over tables and chairs making a fair amount of noise as she rushed to her lovers defense. Rounding a series of bookshelves Rikke came across a sight she would not forget nor ever want to see again. Jess was suspended in mid air while Angelica channeled pulsing blue white energies that gave the succubus her lift. Looking over Angelic just sneered at Rikke. "Go ahead rogue attack me but if I don't finish this spell your demon lover will be the one to pay the price. Magical backlash from incomplete rituals can be a bitch. Hell it might even kill her so be my guest rogue one way or another." Could it be true would attacking Angelica hurt Jessica it would have to be a call for the rogue to make one that could prove deadly.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke flipped the blade in her hand, she was in a lethal stance now. Her eyes sharp with deadly intent the heroine would kill the woman... but what was she doing to Jessica! "Stop it! What are doing to Jessica, bitch?!" the rogue slowly inched her way forward. Killing the woman outright without knowing what foul sorceries had her held may indeed tear her lover apart! But there had to be a way to stop this. While Angelica talked Rikke would over whther there was a way to stop the ritual. Perhaps a sign she could break or an altar she could topple. Killing the mage itself may cause major instability, interupting the spell will cause all the backlash onto the initiator of the ritual.

"Humph playing safe not that I blame you. Well my dear Rikke or at lest I hope thats you. Im forcing knowledge out of your lover here. Oh don't worry she won't be permanently harmed as long as I complete the ritual. Though I bet she'll have a massive headache." Angelica looked at Rikke before looking back at Jessica. "Ill tell you what rogue as soon as this ritual is over you can have the succubus we'll have what we want from her anyway. The only thing I ask is you don't kill me after all I doubt you want to kill your lovers baby." Angelica grinned wickedly at Rikke. "So do we have a deal?"
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke eyed the woman spitefully "You didn't answer my question. Now if I don't know what you're doing I may do something stupid like gut you where you stand and just see what happens. So shut your mouth and tell me what you're doing. NOW" the heroine was serious, her look can attest to that, the gaze she gave the woman was cold and deathly "You dare say anything else besides what you're doing to her right now, I will kill you."
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

"I told you forcing knowledge out of your lover here see look here it comes." Indeed the glow around Jess got brighter as red energy flowed from her temples forming a rune that Rikke didn't recognize. "That my little rogue is knowledge of shape shifting. With this finnaly rune all of your friends secretes are ours. Thats what we have been doing to her."
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke slightly lowered her blade "You're sucking out her succubus magic?..." the rogue eyes slowly widened "You can tell which skills you're draining... in other words you pick and choose what to take!" Rikke quickly approached the girl "Take your damn spells and let her go!" the heroine raised her blade "And I swear to all that is dear to me, if Jessica becomes and empty husk after this. I will make sure you dread the day you crossed me..." if after the final rune was absorbed the spell would cease Rikke would quickly knock the living heck out of Angelica.

Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

"Oh she'll be none the worse for ware maybe a little tired and have a massive headache but she will live." It took only a few minutes longer before the ritual had been completed and Jess glided down to the ground in a heap. Thats when Rikke struck three quick strikes and Anglica was down knocking over a small chest that spilled about 8 or 9 similar runes to the ground around her. Wasting no time Rikke was soon over at Jess popping the locks on her chains.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke made double sure the girl was out before proceeding. Seems the runes were only extracted, but they haven't been absorbed... how unlucky for Angelica and co....

Standing up from her cautious double check Rikke quickly dashed and slid over to Jessica grabbing the girl in her arms. Unfortunately she seemed completely out cold... but here she was. Holding Jessica in her hands! "Come on... come on, come on... please do something." Rikke quickly grabbed the bottle Luna gave her before she departed, the heroine wasn't sure what it was, but there was no harm to give some of it to Jessica. Perhaps it would snap her out of it, maybe even heal her up a bit.

Rikke quickly popped the bottle open and gently gave Jessica a sip, some concern still in her face. What if Angelica lied... what if Jessica would not wake up... what if she woke not her anymore!
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

Rikke tried to force some potion into Jess but it only prompted the girl to struggle. "No" it was weak but it sounded like Jess. She was in bad shape she looked exhausted and wore out. Rikke could see old bruises that hadn't healed quite yet. She felt so fragile in Rikke's arms but she had her finally had her. Now it was time for their escape.
 
Re: Who Rules the Ruins (Ubberific) GMed by ranger

"Please Jess... it's from Luna. I've finally come to save you... it's me Rikke... your Rikke" the heroine eyed her companions battered body, tears forming up in her eyes. What did they do to her... while she was busy having fun and such, Jessica continued to suffer here, all alone and in despair. "Please Jess, just a sip, I won't force you..." the rogue wasn't sure her friend could hear or understand her, but maybe her voice would ease the girl ever so slightly. Holding the vial at an angle Rikke stroked Jessicas hair carefully, while holding her in a warm embrace... nothing else mattered right now.
