Ace frowns. No pet for him then. That's too bad.
He fires some silver bullets into the lizard, then either goes into evasive actions or loots the bodies, using them in unison with the broken revolver, the boomerang, and the remaining ashes. Then, regen the pheonix bullet.

"I'm new here," she said, giving a good press to motivate her captive, "so perhaps you could explain some things? Who you and these blue robes are, why you're fighting, what goes on around here, you know, the usual."

Azastre calmly reclines on the floor. 6->1,2,2 He bonks his head on the gritty rock and doesn't feel very rested. 1 HP healed.

Ace 1 pulls his trigger... and the gun goes "click". It seems his gun is stuck somewhere. 5 He regenerates his phoenix bullet (-1 HP) and dashes across the room and picks up a staff with a red gem at the end. The owner's body is nowhere to be seen.

Arianna 4 "Bite me," the captive girl growls. Arianna cheerfully does so, and she screams more of shock than pain.

"You must be the most idiotic Water ever to join at the front lines, dimwit. Don't you even know who your enemies are?" She taunts Arianna while still being pinned.

Rod 2,2,3 can't relax while things are still flying around, and he doesn't regain any lost HP.

Kahn 1 trods the wrong way and feels pain shoot up his leg. -3 HP He hobbles over to the spider, walking carefully, and 4 stabs it through its abdomen while it is concentrating on Ire and Gretel. The spider twitches wildly, then curls up.

His spear feels cooler than before.
Ire takes her candy handcannon out in one smooth action and raises and aims it. She pulls the trigger ... but spider is taken out by Sir Kahn, and she doesn't fire. Gretel slips along the walls away from her.

Azastre 5 Popo whisks the head-cover that was over the kestrel's head all long! It opens an eye, snaps its beak together, and beats its wings. This kestrel is one darned ready kestrel!

Kahn tugs his spear out of the spider, bracing himself with a fit, and walks off to a quieter corner. Though he 6->2,2,6->1 tries rubbing his foot, but -1 HP it hurts. Kahn thinks he might need some sort of ointment to heal it, or he could try lucid healing again.  Strangely, though, recently his allies had a lot of backfire from trying to heal rapidly.

4
A different Terracotta of Water walks up to him and says, "Why are you sitting here like you're allowed to?" She eyes him. "Well, I guess you can lick your wounds. Or something. Your foot looks bad, take this." She drops a little ampule of thick liquid into his lap. 

Rod 1 grumbles about his choice of career, but he only feels worse. Why was he even in this death-trap of a tower? Why?!

2,6->3,4 = 7 HP healed.

Ire 6->2,3,3=6 HP healed for everyone. Although she almost felt the magic shifting, her new knowledge of healing lets her keep it in its beneficial form.

She examines the area...
The few Fire Terracottas that haven't retreated are being tied up or caught. Arianna is pinning down a Fire and talking calmly to her. The Terracottas of Water are regrouping, re-establishing their patrols. The ones who rushed out of one of the corridors are looking around suspiciously, peering into the just attacked one, and a few are returning to where they came from. Rod and Kahn and Azastre are resting on the hard floor, not looking quite comfortable, and Popo is talking to Azastre. Gretel is nowhere to be seen.

5 She is seen by no-one.

Ace 5 removes the crystal intact. It feels warm in his hands, though the crudely cut design surely could be improved. 5 he adds the various materials and 1,4,5 creates a +4 Golden Revolver of Incandescence. It can either be used as a lighter, or it can imbue a bullet with fire on a roll of [4] and explode in a blaze. Perhaps using it with a Phoenix Bullet will make it better.
On the other hand, he suspects it will melt down if he <rolls three 1s for an attack roll, cumulative>.

4 He sidles up to a friendly-looking Water and asks what's going on. She smiles and tells him that there are four sides to the Terracottas, Fire, Water, Dark, and Light. Each one believes that their elemental god created the world (those heathens!), and that they were always in conflict. On the other hand, they didn't always fight in this claustrophobic maze. All four Terracotta groups used to live in a world of floating continents, over a great sea that knew no bounds, but one day some of them found themselves here.

3 He tries some moves on her, but she seems oblivious and rather confused.

Arianna 5 The Fire Terracotta groans, and mutters, "Those blue robes are the idiotic Terracottas of Water, we're fighting because we always did, mostly watching each other goes on. Happy? By the way, where did you get that armor? It's freaking ugly." She struggles under her grip, while unwisely insulting her.

[Spinal_Taper]

"Gee. That sure is interesting. Eternal war."
He halts a moment to think.
"So, I got two more questions. The first, is, y'know, where are the other ones? Light and Dark n' Stuff. The other..."
He moves in closer, naturally, almost undetectably. That jacket must have some kind of magic. He was never this smooth before. Unless he didn't know it.
"Tell me, where do you come from? Care showin' me?"

Appearance Changing Hex. It is applicable to either self or another, and the appearance is decided by the caster.
Disenchantment Hex (Takes a long time to draw and requires a precious sacrifice, but works 100% of the time. It disenchants one to six objects maximum. The order of disenchanting can't be chosen. Sometimes, disenchanted magic with nowhere to go leaves behind its essence.)
Animate Jack-O-Lantern (With a sufficiently prepared Jack of the Lantern, Kahn may animate it with a simple hex that works roughly 66% of the time, and induce it to spit fire (on a 5~6), jump at people (on a 3~6), self-destruct on command (on a 6), and slowly drain the life energy of nearby people (on a 6). The number of features is random, but usually sacrificing something increases the number of features.)
