Down under...Samucane sends both of its scouting canes a-scouting! That's what they're for, after all.
[Cane 1 scouting roll: ?]
[Cane 2 scouting roll: ?]
Both of them go off in different directions while Samucane takes yet another path! The stalwart golem follows its master at a relatively slow pace!
[Magic roll: 1+1]
That is, it would if Samucane could move at the moment! It is forced to wait impotently for a short bit until trying again!
[Magic roll: 6+1-
2]
Now that's better! Samucane floats up easily and goes exploring!
[Exploration roll: 4]
It manages to find a peculiar-looking temple made of black stone! Something is glowing inside of it! Samucane is about to go in when its cane scouts return! One claims that there is an area of interesting-looking pillars to the west, while the other claims to have found native creatures to the east! It even brought some to Samucane!
The native creatures appear to be giant stone crabs. Hm.
[Crab hostility roll: 3]
They eye Samucane's golem with what looks like great suspicion!
Behind the Metamorphosis Department...James just keeps on firing! Heck, these guys are mostly just hurting themselves, anyway!
[James vs. Lifemage 4: 3+1 vs. 4]
The bastard avoids his shot! Why can't he just die?
[Lifemage 4 magic roll: 5]
James is caught completely off-guard by a sudden display of competence! The lifemage violates his undead spirit, subjecting it to punishment no spirit should suffer!
[James will roll: 1+1]
Oh dear. That's painful. And deadly.
[James will roll: 3]
Ha! Not deadly enough, though! James, while weakened, can still fight!
[Lifemage 5 magic roll: 2]
The other possibly dangerous lifemage takes a minute to adjust his glasses in order to avoid any sight-related mishaps!
[Lifemage 3 endurance roll: 1]
The third living lifemage dies a horrible suffocating death. Well, that's half of them down! James tries to shock them into submission!
[Intimidation roll: 6]
James manages to look completely alien and completely deadly at the same time! Those two appearances combined make the two remaining lifemages flee as fast as they can! Well, that settles it - lifemages are pushovers.
James glances at the magical barrier and notices his reflection!
[James will roll: 3]
An icy chill runs over his now-shattered shell! Heh, scared himself for a second there.
