<strong>Yulia of Pendle</strong><br/>The<del>Wizard</del>Witch - Lvl 1<br/><strong>HP:</strong>16/16<br/><strong>XP:</strong>0/8<br/><strong>Conditions:</strong>None<br/><hr/>"Now now, Seras, play nice," Yulia chided, though there wasn't much heart in it--Isma's kidding was hardly a surprise, but that made it no less exhausting.  "The theory does make some sense...if you're inclined to assume there's any truth to some spook being behind all this.  Big<em>if</em>, mind."<br/><br/>As the warsworn and the fool headed off, Yulia's eyes fell on Vafi, still apparently having trouble finding her feet.  She almost considered lending a hand...almost.  "If you plan on finishing up, love, I'd be quick about it," she said with a smirk, the frustration written all over Vafi's face making her lack of satisfaction painfully obvious.  "We<em>do</em>have a job to do here."  With that, and a swish of her skirt, she left the flustered paladin to her embarrassment, trying not to laugh on her way toward the supposed ritual site Isma had pointed out.<br/><br/>If whoever had traced the circle had wanted to cover their tracks, they'd done a bad job of it.  Still, a chill ran up Yulia's spine at the sight.  "Ah, hells..."  She really had hoped this would all prove to be unfounded farmers' paranoia, but no such luck, it seemed.  The setup may not have been elaborate, but it was no less obviously the work of a real practitioner, amateur or no.  Careful not to disturb the circle, Yulia knelt, sniffing for anything lingering in the air.  "What are you for...?"<br/><br/>She glanced over her shoulder, confirming that none of her companions were watching.  Assured of privacy, she drew a steadying breath, licking at lips suddenly dry.  The circle's design might not have been familiar to her, but the location, and the character of the markings, made it obvious that it wasn't intended for anything pleasant.  Which made what she was about to do a likely dangerous prospect.  Still, they weren't likely to get far without knowing just what had been done here.<br/><br/>With one hand bracing against the headstone, Yulia opened all three eyes.<em>Let's see what you've got...</em><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Moves</div><div class="spoiler_body">First, casting <em>detect magic</em>.<br/><br/>At 2018-11-28 14:22:26, ZincStandard (uid: 62913) rolls: 2d6a2 Result: 6 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=127015)<br/><br/>Well, that's not great.  I imagine opening one's third eye can have some pretty unpleasant consequences if it goes badly.<br/><br/>Anyway, also <strong><em>discerning realities</em></strong>, possibly with the added benefit of magical senses, to hopefully learn more about the circle's purpose.<br/><br/>At 2018-11-28 14:25:01, ZincStandard (uid: 62913) rolls: 2d6a1 Result: 11 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=127016)<br/><br/>That's more like it 8-)  I want to know what happened here recently, what I should be on the lookout for, and what here isn't what it appears to be.</div></div>
