In the woods...Tom, not discouraged by the sight of a single-footed drunkard thrashing like a lunatic, hops toward the fellow once again!
[TTS agility roll: 4]
Unfortunately for him, it appears that the stranger has mustered enough coordination to get up already! Then again, maybe he'll get to see him fall to the ground again.
[Tom vs. TTS: 6 vs. 1-
1]
Tom, not really satisfied at getting just a foot, goes the extra mile and starts rapidly chewing at the guy's thigh! It only takes about twenty seconds until the screaming stranger is made footless and one-legged, dropping to the ground with a loud thud!
"And now I'll have to find new legs! Damn you, skeletal-whatsit!"In mortal combat with a flying giant octopus...Yorinnsud takes the dagger offered by her buddy
Mark and takes careful aim!
[Yorinnsud vs. Octopus: 4+1 vs. 4+2]
She narrowly misses the octopus! It now seems to have turned its attention to her!
[Octopus vs. Yorinnsud: 6+2 vs. 1+
1]
It comes down to the ground lightning-fast, a hooked tentacle flashing past before Yorinnsud can react! She can only observe the results, which are that she is nearly cut diagonally in half from shoulder to hip, her top half lurching backwards as Yorinnsud loses her balance and falls over!
[Mark vs. Octopus: 2+1 vs. 5+1]
Mark is about to leap on the octopus, but the horrid creature twists around and swipes with its tentacle!
[Counterattack: Octopus vs. Mark: 1+1 vs. 3+2]
However, Mark has anticipated this! He leaps upwards and tries to stab straight down at the octopus like some kind of professional mollusc hunter!
[Octopus dodge roll: 6]
Instead of dodging, however, it flies straight up at Mark, slapping the halberd's blade out of the way and charging right into him!
[Mark hanging on roll: 3]
Mark is flung upwards, though he manages to get a tenuous grip on one of the octopus' tentacle hooks! The octopus spins at a great speed, trying to shake him off!
[Mark strength roll: 2]
Mark just flies away, landing on the ground with a crashing sound! Though it seems to have hurt quite a bit, Mark is mostly unharmed. The same can't be said for Yorinnsud, who seems to be having trouble getting up without accidentally losing her top half in the process.
On a cobblestone...Luke, realizing the gravity of the situation he is in, tries to dodge away from the pink objects!
[Dodge roll: 1-
1]
He fails most spectacularly as he manages to move but a few inches before he is squashed between the two oddly-ridged plates! He feels himself ascend to a great height in a very short period of time!
[Treatment roll: 6]
He is then gently placed into a large empty space for some reason! There is quite a bit of space in here, if he may say so himself. The incredibly thick glass walls, however, are a bit off-putting.
He sees a large gray object get placed far above, about sixty feet over his head! Then, oddly enough, the object seems to get perforated by something metallic. Then everything goes dark.
