===Example of Chalk=== You enter the tunnel... as you proceed down its length something catches you eye.. one the wall in what looks like faded chalk you find a message, hand written of course... however its in a language you cant read, but it is clearly a human language and different from the hieroglyphs found elsewhere in the machine. Wait my character speaks and reads Russian, and Latin. Ah, good... after letting your eyes adjust to the light in this room it becomes clear the message is written in ancient Latin.. you can make out that is something along the lines of "Beware the serpent that does not sleep." You enter the next room. In this one, the cogs and gears are set at diagonals for the most part, along one wall. Their shafts are made of the same material as everywhere else, but there is a viscous black fluid sliding down the shafts. The other wall is simply a continuation of the last room's massive clockwork structure, only the paneling nearby marking it as any different than the last five rooms. Doctor Pembury, true to form, is walking into this room with the same aplomb and carefree fascination as he has the entire time. The floors and ceiling are not too unusual - the glass ceiling still shows you the thick intermixed clockwork and gears they have the last two rooms. That centipede-thing that has been following you ever since you entered the glass-ceilinged section is still there, watching you all like a curious puppy. Jordan is carefully taking samples of the viscous liquid, while Jose is nervously staying as close to the middle of the room as he can. (players take samples.make sketches/talk to the professor) Jordan cries out loudly - he's caught his shirt in the gears he was standing next to. Jose is on his knees praying and sweating bullets. Doctor Pembury runs back into the room.... (What no one knows, and may never find out, is that Jordan was pushed by Jose, who has been bribed by the Doctor's rivals to make sure he must return to the surface before they do, or Jordan is self-inflicting the wound to get the female pc's attention, or...)
