[Harry Baldman]

Inside the somewhat damaged cottage of Bernie...

Samucane attempts to comfort Bernie's sister!

[Comforting roll: 3]

If only Samucane wasn't an unfeeling lump of wood and silver! It appears that basic human empathy is currently beyond its operational capabilities! It attempts to make what it thinks might make her feel better!

[Magic roll: 5+1]
[Writing eloquence roll: 3]

DON'T FRET! HE WAS A DUMB MEANIE ANYWAY!

These large, flaming letters appear on the ceiling, made entirely of flaming canes!

[Reaction roll: 3]

"Well, yes, but did you see his face? It was absolutely-wait, who's writing this?"

She carefully glances around the room!

Spoiler: GM Note (click to show/hide)

I'll submit this to the library sometime later, probably in the beginning of December.

[Caerwyn]

Samucane will dance around, and say: "It's me, the skeleton who healed you. I kinda...Am a cane now.

[TopHat]

Head to the library, find book about making focuses, (foci?) read book

[Harry Baldman]

Inside the cottage of the Glautzenheisers...

Samucane decides to go for a bit of exposition!

[Samucane magic roll: 3+1]
[Writing eloquence roll: 5]

It creates clearly legible, if somewhat plain-looking cane letters on the ceiling!

I AM THE SKELETON WHO HEALED YOU. I WAS ONCE SAMUEL, BUT NOW I AM HIM NO LONGER. I AM NOW SAMUCANE, SKELETAL SPIRIT IN A CANE FOCUS BODY.

It looks pretty impressive, actually!

"That's... strange. From what I know, mages rarely choose to transfer themselves to a focus. It's impractical and usually turns them into a far-too-intelligent book that seeks to destroy its new masters. Or so the legends go. So, what do you want?"


On university grounds...

James crawls to the Library! Once there, he searches for the focus literature shelf!

[Search roll: 2]

He can't find the damn place! Maybe somebody took all the books?

[Caerwyn]

Well, you seem to be a smart person. Can I borrow a bit of your blood? Y'know, virgin's blood and...All that. On a side (And more important note), do you have anything that would help me use telekinesis? Of course, I'm not asking to get these things for free...

[TopHat]

Look again. Remember where they were last time. Then read the book(s)
((gosh that was close earlier. Killed by falling... Would have been embarrassing.))

[Harry Baldman]

Inside the lair of the Glautzenheisers...

Samucane tries to create yet another cane-message!

[Samucane magic roll: 4+1]
[Writing eloquence roll: 5]

It forms beautiful glowing letters in the ceiling in place of the earlier ones!

YOU ARE A CLEVER PERSON, PERHAPS YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN A TRADE? A BIT OF YOUR BLOOD AND PERHAPS A TELEKINETIC ARTIFACT OF SOME SORT, AND I WILL AID YOU!

"You do realize that you are kind of obligated through soulbinding to help me and give me anything I want from you, provided I order you to? You don't exactly have the best bargaining position is what I'm trying to say. You don't look like you have anything of value and you already serve me anyway. So why would I give you any of my blood? I'm rather attached to my blood, thank you very much. It's already enough for me that my brother misappropriates it at every opportunity, I don't want another mage leeching off me, really. As for a telekinetic artifact, I don't have one. Sorry."

Samucane slumps disappointedly!


Inside the Library...

James tries to remember where he last saw the damn focus shelf!

[Intelligence roll: ?+1]

Yep, it was definitely here. The books he wants appear to be missing. Lousy thieving librarians!

[Greenstarfanatic]

((The books may just have been me. I DID take a lot in my hurry.))

[TopHat]

((shakes fist at greenstarfanatic.))
attempt to turn the healing spell book into a focus from what I remember from reading earlier (before the mind-citadel).

[Firelordsky]

Go up the spiral ramp.

[Caerwyn]

Samuel will ask her for orders.

[Yoink]

((If we be choosin' colours, I might take #663399. Is that alright, or is it too unwieldy?))

[Harry Baldman]

Inside the cottage of Bernie's sister...

Samucane asks for orders as well as it can!

[Magic roll: 3+1]
[Writing eloquence roll: 4]

YOU HAVE ORDERS FOR ME, MISTRESS?

"No, not really. Not at the moment, anyway. Maybe you could ask Bernie? I think I've used you for long enough. Besides, you minions did quite a good job, bringing me all the things I wanted. Of course, I would have preferred the man to be dead, but what can you do."


Inside an alien spiral...

Vincent ascends the ramp! He comes across a room. It seems to be full of upturned five-legged chairs and tables. There is a podium in the center of the room!


Inside the Library...

James does something quite dangerous: he tries to attenuate his spellbook focus!

[Attenuation roll: 1-1]

The book explodes in white flames, blowing James backwards and setting the Library on fire!

[Fire roll: 2]

It turns out that this library was an accident waiting to happen, as the fire seems to spread quite rapidly!

[James flying roll: 5]

James, however, lands unharmed and ready to run like the craven individual he undoubtedly is!

Considering that OREOSOME hardly ever posts anyway, I'm considering adding you to the player list. Anybody against it, speak up or forever be silent. And your color is easier to type out than, say, yellowgreen or fuchsia, so it's okay.

[Firelordsky]

Try to sit on one of the chairs.

[miauw62]

((Hey, Lime Green isn't that hard! It's in the color options in the post editor. That said, i nearly always use quick reply, so this may be a bit hyprocritic.))
