Event: Eyes in the Dark

Post by Vutall » Tue Jun 23, 2020 4:32 am

((Edit: This event is now closed, having proceeded on to its second part))

A number of the Shoji screens inside the barracks have holes in the paper, leaving to little peepholes into each of the different makeshift clan areas. Throughout the night, the sleepy students may catch a glimpse of something out of the corner of their eyes, what looks to be like a set of bright white eyeballs staring at them through the hole.

Participation: This event is open to any number of participants, and will not break up your sleep. This does not count as a non-mandatory event for the purposes of this rule "Characters may not participate in two non-mandatory events in a row unless the event is not filled after 24 hours from the event posting. "

Rules: Make an Investigation/Perception roll at TN10. If you succeed, you see the eyes and thus can bring it up during day 2. If you fail, you do not catch sight of the eyes.

Special Rule: If you have Lore: Spirit Realms, make a note in the thread that you have the skill.

Something felt off to Kai. Their as-yet-developing shrine keeper senses were tingling.

Kai's eyes opened to catch sight of the eyes peeking through the shoji. Very curious!

Dao rolled over on his futon and let out a quiet mumble of something imperceptible as sleep held tight to him and the moment passed him by.

Aiichiro probably was seeing more Kunis on his dreams than eyes on his shojis.

Ichiro was roused early from his sleep, Zurui curled up next to him burrowed under a pile of furs as his makeshift home. The unicorn boy looked around and through a small hole saw what looked like a white eye before it vanished.

There might have been something... Suzu was so close to have seeing it. But being the level headed individual she was, she wrote it off as a figment of her imagination and went back to sleep.

For a moment Yotsuo returns from Yume-do and opens his eyes groggily. As he does so, the eyes staring at him get a return stare. He does not break eye contact until the eyes disappear or he falls asleep again, as if to tell whoever was looking at him that he can see them.

Nobuko's sleep was interrupted more by the shuffling of other students as they moved around the floor and rolled over in their beds than it was by the feeling of someone looking at her. She never even noticed the eyes.

Ginkarasu never really stopped his light snoring as the night went on, though he did roll over fitfully a few times. It seemed like his futon wasn't quite the right size, a foot always finding one side or another to slide onto the cooler floor.

Mai is sleeping, then she wakes up to see eyes staring directly at her. "Pervert." She pulls her blanket over her and goes back to sleep.

D1 Ox Investigation/Perception: 3d10o10k2 27
As Mai tries to go back to sleep, she finds her eyes drawn back to the hole in the wall, where she locks on to the eyes peering at her. Instantly, she finds her mind in excrutiating pain, as if something has drained a large portion of her bodies inner energies.
