There's a new creature lurking about the shadows of the castle, and this one isn't a part of the game.

Finding herself encased in the sarcophagi wasn't really as shocking as it should have been. However, the whole medieval castle nasty dangers thing was something she was rather used to. Or rather, what she was used to thanks to borrowed memories. She was used to old Norse/Atlantian ruins with blue rivers that killed you. Not much of a stretch of course, but still not the same thing. The only downside of waking and escaping was the weakness she felt and the inability to use her powers for awhile. They were returning, but she still disliked it.

Doppelganger stood in the sarcophagi room, looking about it and the same way her original would have. Taking in everything she could to deduce the age of the castle, it's cultural origin, and maybe whatever traps lay hidden around her. From what she could gather none of these things could really be told. There was just something off about this place and not in the usual sense.

Turning her back, she started making her way out of the room to explore a bit. Maybe she could even scale the walls a bit to get a better view of her new surroundings.

Someone's already beaten you to scaling the walls, but there's no apology for that.

He's somewhere in one of the corridors that leads away from the room where everyone seems to come from, arrive in. One of the taller walls, where the hall branches out into a room with stairs and higher places to see, that's where he is. Scaling the cliff as best as he can, he's about halfway up to the neck ledge when he hears footsteps.

His eyes glance down for a moment, and he shakes it off, goes back to climbing. His pace however, is a little faster now, with the idea that someone might be coming, and that yes, they might see him.

The great part about old castles like this are certain sections of wall were crumbling. It was wonderful for Doppelganger, who could use it to her advantage. She walked right up to that wall, looked up to examine it's path for a moment, before she activated her shadow ability and scaled it like no one's business.

She went up fast, grabbing at a piece of stone ledge to give herself a quick rest. She shimmies across it, leaning over the edge of it to jump and grab the next piece a little ways down the wall when she catches sight of him.
