The Raven's and Permafrost's start
Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
You guys start to descend into the tunnel, taking note of its darkness as the flickering of the previous room's light is slowly fading behind you two. The air is rancid with the smell of death, and something else. You can not hear anything but you do notice that the walls around you were dug manually with hands, a whole bunch of hands.

"How foolish" Permafrost admits.
"In my fury I didn't think of the darkness. We need a flashlight. Perhaps more searching is in order before we descend?"

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
Raven inspects the walls feeling them briefly, "I agree, whatever made this tunnel I don't think we want to meet it head on in the dark..." As they both head back to the entrance Raven speaks up behind Elsa, "I don't think your actions were foolish... overzealous maybe... but so far I don't see you as a fool." Once they reach the room and out into the hallway Raven will head to the next door and check to see if it is locked.

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
The door right across the hallway is open. As Elsa and Raven enter the room, they notice that it is almost identical to the other one, a break room of sorts. No signs of activity are present and the room is free of any gore, it just appears weathered like the rest of the place, aged with time.
This is but a section of the room, minus the window. A vending machine can be found in one of the corners, now active due to Raven activating the power switch. A system of lockers can also be found against one of the walls, some of them open, others still locked shut by padlocks.

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
Raven starts to look around the room, going to the lockers and searching them, "Let's check this room for any items we need."

"Thank you for your words in the tunnel. " Elsa says. "I was feeling quite angered. I've calmed a bit. Hopefully we can find some light. I don't suppose you can make the locks on these lockers disappear as you made yourself earlier? "
She will keep an eye on the doorway as well.

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
Raven looks through the open lockers first, searching for anything that may be useful, "Maybe... I didn't know I could do that, it just kind of... happened. I just felt like it was possible to get there and went with it." He takes everything he finds that could be useful and puts it on the desk then goes to the locks and inspects them, "I don't know about my powers but you could probably freeze these locks and make them brittle enough to break... or we can try it the hard way."
Raven then takes one of the locks in hand and, seeing that the locker is rusted and worn with age, attempts to yank the lock off of the locker.
POWER YANK: Skill Check: [1d100] = 32

"I may not be able to break the locks without destroying the contents...but I bet I can seep ice into the cracks around the door and expand it enough to break the door. It's not nearly as sturdy as the locks."
Permafrost Generate Ice [1d100+50] = 99+50 = 149
Wow! I may have removed the tops off ALL the lockers!

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
The doors to each closed locker is now unhinged and take apart by Permafrost's ice generation. A magnificent display of control is displayed as each spurt of ice almost takes on the shape of hands, pulling the doors off with ease. After that artful demonstration of icy power, Raven and Elsa both finish going through the abandoned set of lockers to see what they can salvage.
7x lunchboxes, two of which are empty
3x smartphones, their batteries dead
A few changes of clothing, uniforms still neatly folded
1x silver watch, no longer ticking
And a checklist of some sorts, hand written and barely legible
The power yank earlier did not work.

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
Raven looks at the assembled things, "Well there's no flashlight, unless your something of a McGuyver." He suddenly stops and looks at Elsa, "What's a McGuyver?... How do I know that word..." As Raven continues to think about how he would know that word or name he suddenly tenses in pain and holds his head, "Gahh!! Not again!" Raven drops to his knee, his arm hanging onto the table while his other hand holds his head, "Stop... Stop..." As the pain subsides he slowly gets back to his feet and looks down at the table, both arms on the table, "Sorry about that... I'm fine now.
With a roll like that I will be quoting something Tooley said a bit ago, "the two explorers stumble on a large cache of diamonds. There must be thousands about the size of marbles"

Elsa reaches to comfort him in his pain but withdrawals her hand doubtful.
"What happened? Are you alright?"

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
"It's nothing... I just get these bad headaches when I try to think about myself before I woke up here or really anything in the past, I just try to focus on what I am doing..." Raven then takes the phones and puts them in one of his coat pockets and half stumbles towards the room entrance, " These phones may have some answers if we can power them up, let's check another room..."

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
thank hulks buttocks! I thought my godly roll gave you wicked brain freeze! 
"OK, so a flashlight and a micro USB charger. Got it."
Elsa moves to the door and peeks out both ways.

If the coast is clear then Raven will be heading to the next door and checking to see if it is locked.
Haha, luckily for me my threshhold on wicked brain freezes is 150, you were just short

Re: The Raven's and Permafrost's start
So you guys aren't going to try and get anything out of the vending machine? Really? I guess you guys aren't as thirsty as I though.
Moving on...
The next door down the corridor with flickering lights is indeed locked. The window is stained just like the janitor's closet, but the lock mechanism is different. There is a keypad instead of a keyhole. With power now restored to this area, the monitor above the keys hums a bright green color, waiting for input.
