"Ah! Hang on a second, spookie-" Something loud crashed inside, making the walls of Moira's shack shudder for a moment. A bit of dust plumed out from the cracks in the walls. Hmm...
When the door opened, though, Moira seemed none the worse for wear, a bright smile on her face as always. "Hello there, spookie! You're ready for your exam, huh? All set to become a knob?" She set off towards the corner of the building without waiting for Mei, clearly expecting the ghoul to follow her.
Around the corner was a large... well, pile of metal? No, it was a huge heap of scraps, spread around a large area, with Trashbots engaged in pushing bits of it around. "Ahh... isn't it beautiful, spookie? My Scrapyard! Anything that I want to make, I can make with what's in there! But it's also a great test, spookie! I want you to make it to the other side, okay? That ought to be a super-worthy exam for you!"
She beamed. "Any questions before you head on in?"
Exam: Trashbot Jump! To pass this exam, Mei must successfully make her way through the maze of Moira's Scrapyard, a tangle of metal and moving Trashbots that can change minute by minute! The best way to make her way through is to use her jiang-shi jumping skillz, it seems... Mechanics:Roll 1d6 to advance! There are 15 'areas' to pass through - keep track of where you are, based on your number. So if you were in section 4 and roll 2, you move to section 6 - where you would follow the instructions for section 6! 0 (Start) - A headcrab looks at you funny. Roll to begin! 1 - You jump up and smack into the ceiling. Ow. (Go back to Start!) 2 - A Trashbot rumbles past, disorienting you. Take -1 from your next dice roll. 3 - A bag of particularly squashy trash gives way under you! Ew. Still, did it do anything...? (Mei is now stinky.) 4 - FLIES. EVERYWHERE. They're blinding! You must roll 1d12 - you are stuck here until you roll an odd number, at which point you clear the flies away and may continue normally. 5 - You hear a vast buzzing and hurry onward... hm. 6 - A high bounce gives you a great view of where you need to go next! Go forward 2 steps. 7 - There's a set of huge showerheads here, cleaning off dumpsters and Trashbots. Hrm. Nothing happens other than you getting wet, though... 8 - You splat right into a mound of something moist. Ewwww. (Mei is now stinky.) 9 - You cleverly follow a Trashbot, which clears the way for you for a few minutes before making a U-turn and doubling back. Go forward 3 steps! 10 - An apparently solid dumpster gives way under you! Go back 2 steps! 11 - A Trashbot looks at you... if you are stinky, it mistakes you for trash and drags you to Section 7! If not, it does nothing. 12 - There is a mailbox here. ... Weird. You decide to keep going. 13 - A gnome zooms past, screaming something about not wanting a bath. Its cries disorient you... Take -1 from your next roll. 14 - You can hear Moira humming. Are you close?! You must be... but in your excitement you take a wrong turn, and go back two spaces. 15 (End) - Moira is here! She looks pleased... have you beaten your exam?! When you reach the end, quote me! Your pass/fail will be based on two factors: on your dice rolls (number of rolls, etc.) and your roleplay.
