<div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/4TwfEDc.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Alanna Rosewood (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=276903.msg13604090#msg13604090)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Hall of Ravished Virginity, Entrance<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Laura, Kana<br/><strong>HP:</strong>110 / 110<br/><strong>AC:</strong>34,<strong>TAC:</strong>18,<strong>FFAC:</strong>26,<strong>CMD:</strong>29<br/><strong>Passives:</strong>Fort +8, Ref +14, Will +8, Init +13, Perc +18<br/><strong>Current Form:</strong>Human<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Alanna followed Laura in closely, scimitar and Buckler in hand. Laura had, of course, insisted on going first to scout the area - and to be fair, she was probably the best one for the job given her superior senses - but that didn't mean that Alanna had to wait several minutes for her to return. They were both frontline fighters, after all, and being the squishier of the two, Laura would almost certainly need some backup if she ran into anything especially tough. That wasn't to say that she was weak - far from it - but she found that in combat, it paid to have a trusted ally beside you. Even a horde of Goblins could get lucky sometimes, and if you didn't have a friend with you to pull your ass out of the fire when shit went sideways, well...things got bad real quick. Besides, she couldn't let her favourite little toy get broken, now could she? The two of them had been lovers for a good few years at this point, and whilst they were certainly not exclusive - for obvious reasons, considering Alanna's inherent nature as a half-succubus - she had to admit that Laura was probably her only long-time lay. She'd had others, of course, but Laura was her favourite. She was such a sweet, kind-hearted little thing that she couldn't help but get a little gooey just thinking about it.<br/><br/>So, she followed Laura in closely, her low-light vision adjusting quickly to the flickering Ioun light emanating from the pulsing light floating over Laura's head. Usually, Alanna would be using a lantern or something, but for the moment the Ioun Torch was good enough to see by. Besides, a standard torch would have been doused by the cascading waterfall outside - which had done nothing to help Alanna's hair-day, making it sopping wet and plastered to the back of her head - and she was not about to go through the effort of lighting something in the humid air outside only to have it put out. Her eyes scanned the room as she stepped through, taking in the large hall and the rather decadent looking visuals on the walls. She pursed her lips in appreciation.<strong>"Hrmm. I dunno who built this place, but I just <em>have</em> to find out who their interior designer was. I'm thinkin' somebody dapper. Maybe in a fancy suit."</strong>From what she could tell, the murals all depicted women - of varying shapes and endowment, but all of them without fail gorgeous - being repeatedly violated by long, sinuous tentacle-looking appendages in various poses and positions.<br/><br/>It wasn't really something that Alanna had ever experienced herself - which was impressive, considering how many things she<em>had</em>tried; it was amazing how easy it was to steal a Minotaurs stash of treasure when he was busy railing a horny Succubus against the wall - but considering how much the girls seemed to be enjoying it...well, she wouldn't mind giving it a try. You should always try everything twice, after all; you never knew what you might end up enjoying! In any case, the origins of the place were largely unknown - it had been there for a while, obviously - and of course, as with every Temple That Time Forgot...there was bound to be some juicy loot buried in there. Some danger too, of course, but it was very unlikely to be anything that they couldn't handle. Her eyes scanned the walls and floor slowly, looking for any kind of sign of life or danger as they walked a little further into the room...and then a voice spoke out of the darkness, and her eyes snapped behind them. They narrowed a little as a humanoid shape resolved from the darkness...and from the waterfall behind them came a woman - apparently dressed in pretty gothic clothes, but she knew that to be an illusion from their time travelling together - with a small ball of light floating in the air.<br/><br/>She gripped her blade a little more firmly...then relaxed; she had to be suspicious of unseen figures appearing behind them, sure, but there was no need for that this time. It was just Kana, the newest member of their group, and immediately Alanna felt a little silly for being so jumpy. They hadn't known her long, but she seemed pretty and innocent enough.<strong>"Ah...it's only you, Kana."</strong>she said, her voice easily slipping into the lilting musical note of playful sing-song; it was slightly annoying that she could never get rid of it, regardless of what she did. Just a downside of being half Sex-Demon, she supposed. And speaking of...well, Kana was cute, it had to be said. She'd tried hitting on her way on the way to the Temple, but alas, nothing had really happened yet...and now that they were entering the Dungeon, she supposed it would just have to wait.<strong>"Don't sneak up on people like that. You never know how they'll react, and we wouldn't want you getting impaled by anybody but Giselle, now would we?"</strong>She winked slyly, then glanced at Laura. She still felt more than a little silly about her initial suspicion, but...well, you didn't get to be an experienced adventurer without a healthy sense of paranoia. The ones who didn't have that...didn't tend to stay alive long, and Alanna intended to live for a very, very long time yet.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Perception:</strong> Alanna Rolled Perception (uid: 29017) rolls: 1d20a18 Result: 19 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=108943)<br/><br/><strong>Initiative:</strong> Alanna Rolled Initiative (uid: 29017) rolls: 1d20a13 Result: 27 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=108946)</div></div>
