A dice roll of 7 or higher is required to safely traverse the tunnel ahead.
** ** ** ** **
1 - Martin McSquabblegold (Enebias) rolls 5 + 5 = 10
You get down on all fours, trying not to gag from the smell of the putrid water, and slowly crawl forward while checking the pavestones to make sure they are not trapped. As you go you light the spider webs with your torch. Seeing rapid movement towards you on one such web, you fire your gun in the air and watch the arachnid scurry back into the shadows.
You reach the cavern ahead and see...
2 - Indigo Joan (Clairsentient) rolls 1 + 1 = 2 Snake Eyes!
Considering the pathway too dangerous you whip the nearest pole to your right and pull yourself across to it. As you get close a King Cobra slithers up the pole to stare you in the eye. It's hood flattened, the snake sways from side to side, hypnotising you in the process.
In your trance-like state you fail to notice the Green Anaconda rise from the water behind you. It latches onto your head with its mouth and coils itself around your body, crushing the life out of you before swallowing you whole.
Your quest has failed.
3 - François de Loire (Lone_Scout) rolls 4 + 3 = 7
You kneel and mumble a prayer to any Gods that may be listening. With a deep breath you pocket your revolver, burn the nearest web and with whip in hand, make a mad dash for the cavern ahead.
Several pavestones sink into the ground as you run and you feel arrows and darts flying across the tunnel just behind you.
You reach the cavern ahead and see...
4 - Expendable Hiro (GamezRanker) rolls 1 + 4 = 5
Worrying about your torch failing in the tunnel, you step outside in search of a more reliable light source. Looking around the trees ahead, you fail to see the man-eating Guinea Pig eyeing you hungrily.
You hit the ground with a thump and before you can react the Guinea Pig is at your throat, ripping out your jugular. The rodent starts to devour you tiny mouthful at a time before you have even bled to death.
Your quest has failed.
5 - Fish Cavendish the Unlucky (Genocide2099) rolls 5 + 6 = 11
Cautiously you inch forward, thwacking the path ahead of you with your whip to check for traps. A giant spider silently descends behind you but as you raise your whip to whack the path again, you inadvertently strike the spider sending it to a watery grave.
You look behind to the splashing noise, shrug and carry on slowly up the path.
You reach the cavern ahead and see...
6 - Cole "The Cliffjumper" Jensen (bluethief) rolls 5 + 3 = 8
Throwing your torch to one side and sneering at the pathway, you dive headfirst into the rank water to the side of it. Adventurers are meant to smell bad, right?
As you swim rapidly upstream a crocodile raises its head in front of you, mouth agape. Your whip lashes out to wrap high around a pole ahead and you yank yourself out of the water and clear of danger, landing at the paths end.
You reach the cavern ahead and see...
