The details are hard to make out using infravision, but they seem to be a group of fonts...
I'm not sure what it says that my first thought on reading this was: Helvetica, Papyrus, Comic Sans...
The fact that your top 3 fonts include Comic Sans is quite the confession :D

I just noticed I missed the 1 month anniversary of this little game! How are you people enjoying it? I'm having lots of fun :D Any feedback?

I am enjoying it. I suspect we have just come to our first real challenge but only time will tell.

Likewise. It's honestly too soon for me to have a solid opinion, but the signs are very favorable.

I was going for comedic effect. I'm worried that Papyrus didn't seem outrageous. :)

Having fun here too! This dungeon seems pretty interesting thus far.

Ok folks- let's do some brainstorming on these fountains.

Crumbling statue of a unicorn; it's water clear
Arguing men, water flows from decapitated neck stumps; it's water sparkling
Hunting dog trying to escape a net; it's water reddish
Eagle, covered in clumps of slime; it's water trickling, sulphurous
Twin legionnaires holding cauldron; it's water plentiful, sulphurous, steaming
Muscleman struggling with giant centipedes crawling over his body; it's water surrounded by crystal deposits
Mage pouring water on enthroned monarch’s feet, painted with red “X” sign; it's water clear
Barbarian in loincloth; it's water sizzling hot, sparkling
Muddy pit
Unicorns are often considered a sign of purity, and sometimes have the ability to remove poisons
Arguing men: discord, struggle-
Hunting dog: escape? need for freedom? maybe Entanglement?
Eagle: flight, or exceptional vision?
Muscleman: ??
Mage & red X- probably something BAD
Barbarian: Berserker
Muddy Pit: some exceptional healing, since the plants are lush and green, even in the dark.

Me neither. Those are all of a type though! :ugeek:

Those all look possible. The hunting dog could even be the reverse, capture or restraint. The muddy could be plant growth or nutrition, something like sweet water maybe.

More questions:
- Touch the water or drink from it to get the effects?
- What to make of details like the slime on the eagle, and the crystal deposits on the muscleman?
- What could happen if one tries to drink from more than one?

Do we have to run the entire dungeon in one hit?

After all, this place was used by people for years. We could go ask them!

To be honest I don't think we will know until someone tries each.

The mud looks like it might be a healing poultice or that could just be mud...guess you have to be desperate to even want to try!

Here's two more: Do the statues spark any connections with the Character's memories of folklore or mythology? Are they related to this world's zodiac?

No, the Kassadian zodiac is unrelated to most of the statues. They are similar to some old parables, but only in general.
