aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh

Sam will try and pray to one of the gods that deals in necromancy and stuff like that. Ask for powers!

Necromancers can heal, right? Er, in a...Sense. Not really healing. More like unholy regeneration.

And, damn, yeah those errors are ANNOYING.

Inside the cottage of Bernie's sister...

Samucane tries to pray to Velusius, God of Death and Magic, the Misfit of the Five!

[Praying roll: 3]

It prays for a bit, but there's no divine favors bestowed upon it! On the other hand, no bolts of lightning either!

[Intelligence roll: ?]

Velusius must be ignoring it on purpose! What a jerk. Just because it doesn't offer up a whole bunch of virgin blood, it's suddenly not good enough? Screw him!

But Necromancers can reverse the effects of aging and wounds; - With a sacrifice, they can cause damage to revert in time. Not really healing, but it's more of a time-reversal thingy...Or, well, I actually don't know how Necromancers work for you. From what I know, they can use blood and soul magic; - As you said, removing and adding souls, animating objects...Or Blood sacrifices, either from themselves, animals or people. I dunno though.

Wait...Bernie's sister is a...Virgin, correct?

...

Sam will try and meditate as best as a cane can, so as to reduce the HORRIBLE EFFECTS of getting those 6+1's.

Inside the cottage of Bernie's sister...

Samucane decides that it's introspection time! How best would it be able to mitigate its UNBRIDLED OMNIPOTENCE OVER ANYTHING CANE-RELATED?

[Meditation roll: 6]

It manages to come to a stunning revelation at the end of an hour-long meditation session - maybe it shouldn't use cane magic as the solution to every problem! It's just crazy enough to work, Samucane believes!

[Beautiful man waking up roll: 2]

The man sleeps very much like Samucane imagines a skinned log might sleep!

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

((Perhaps you'd consider a fancy font to go with that? Can't have your text looking the same as Bernie's. Oh, and the answer to your question is that it depends on circumstances.))

((Damnit. Good point. Mayby this works better? After all, you generally use special fonts for NPC's. And Samuel and Alaric have a similar color too.))

Politely knock on the door. If it doesn't open, look for an alternative exit.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Samuel, with his newfound knowledge, will repeat the cane healing process, but only under the skin; - Leave the man's skin normal looking, but the muscles, tissues, tendons and veins, and all of that will be repaired through Cane...ing!

Inside the Magical Weaponry and Armor Department...

James knocks on the door that stands in his way!

[Door reaction roll: 4]

Nobody answers! Probably because it leads to the outside! Oh well. James searches for an alternative exit!

[Search roll: 6]

He finds a barrel that says "To Outside" on it! Having nothing better to do, he dives right in!

[Barrel roll: 6]

It does indeed transport him outside! By launching him upwards from a third story window! Stupid magical teleporters!

[Fall damage roll: 1]

James lands very hard on the cobblestone outside! His shell is smashed and the pieces have pierced his delicate snail flesh!

[Will roll: 1+1]

Oh dear. James feels terribly lightheaded all of a sudden.

[Will roll: 1]

Yep. He is most definitely dying right now.

[Will roll: 5-1]

Realizing what is happening, James pulls himself together and rolls back onto his snail-foot! He feels like crap, yes, but that's no excuse for nearly dying!


In the cottage of Bernie's sister...

Samucane chooses to disregard the advice of its inner self and solve this problem right here with a good dose of cane magic!

[Magic roll: 3+1]

Samucane adds canes where he previously removed them! The man is once more cane-enriched!

[Man waking up roll: 5]

The man instantly bolts upright! He begins to examine himself!

"Holy fuck, I'm not dead! Imagine that!"

[Reaction roll: 1]

He looks at his newly caned tissues!

"AAGH! WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY BODY?"

He begins to cast magic in a complete panic!

[Beautiful man magic roll: 3-1]

His magic doesn't seem to work! The man keeps yelling various obscenities!

[Sis reaction roll: 3]
[Sis intimidation roll: 4]

"CALM DOWN, you idiot! Don't make me blast you with my amulet! It'll make a big mess, I assure you!"

[Beautiful man reaction roll: 2+1]

The man looks at her in bafflement!

"And who the fuck are you, anyway? Did you do this to me?"

[Sis reaction roll: 5]
[Sis calming roll: 4]

"Now, relax, I had nothing to do with it. I'm currently a bit immobile, as you can see. In fact, I have no idea what happened to you. Looks like long-distance magic to me."

[Beautiful man reaction roll: 1+1]

"I don't fucking believe you! You had something to do with this, I know!"

[Sis patience roll: 6]
[Sis mocking roll: 5]

"Oh, yes, of course I ensorcelled you to become a wooden man for some reason, then left you on the floor completely unrestrained and fully capable of eliminating me at any moment. Sounds very bloody likely, if you ask me!"

[Man reaction roll: 1+2]

"Well, maybe this wasn't your plan, but I bet you had something to do with this!"

[Sis patience roll: 2]
[Sis insult roll: 4]

"No, I did not, you bloody twit, are you really that dense? Honestly, I heard that you metamorphosis people were dumb as posts, but this is a whole new level I'm witnessing here!"

[Man reaction roll: 2+1]

"Okay then, tell me, if you're so fucking smart: who did this?"

[Sis bluff roll: 3]

"Not a clue. Probably somebody awful, though!"

[Man reaction roll: 3]

"Oh, fuck this. I'll be leaving now."

He goes toward the door!

[Sis bluff roll: 4]

"Look out for any highly dangerous mages that want you dead out there, will you?"

[Man reaction roll: 1+1]

"Fuck you! I'm safer out there than here with you, ya crazy bitch!"
