Scene V: The Mayor's House

[Stormbringer]

Okay, roll me a d12, Doc!

[Sly Boots]

Getting lots of use out of this pack of different D&D dice I bought

That's a 9.

[Stormbringer]

By mixing laudanum and...whatever you found in that latrine...you just made yourself a bottle of...

Liquid Gold

Drink to get +2 Luck on your next Luck roll.

[Sly Boots]

"That's lucky," Doc thinks.

[Sly Boots]

BTW, Doc's a pretty lucky guy, so he'll offer that to any of his companions that may want it.

[Sly Boots]

Anyway, sounds like we're off to the kitchen/servant's quarters?

[Stormbringer]

I'm waiting to see what Scrancher and Cumflutter have to say about this!

[Mantis]

A sound plan.

[Stormbringer]

Now just to be clear, the "servant's quarters" is an out-building to the south-east of the house.

The kitchen is on the north side of the house, and has a back entrance leading into it. Is it the kitchen door that you're going to try entering by?

[Sly Boots]

Whatever it was CK suggested

[Animalmother]

Kitchen is good for me.

[Stormbringer]

The Bean Bunch cycle around to the back of the house, leave their bicycles on the ground, and move toward the kitchen door.

They find the door is slightly ajar. They open the door and all slip inside, one after the other.

Once they're inside, they realise they're not alone. In the kitchen, inspecting the shelves of food is a...

...GRIZZLY BEAR!

ROAR!

The beast is not particularly happy to see you and rears up on its hind legs threateningly.

[Sly Boots]

"I don't suppose you can read runes and have an interest in the canine form?" Doc asks, hopefully.

[Wrathbone]

Can we quietly and calmly walk back outside, close the door and go to an entirely different part of the house?

[Stormbringer]

Well, let's try rolling 2d6 to see how the bear reacts to you (other than making a threat display).
