In a mostly empty village...

Vincent, satisfied at all the testing of his Torus Staff of Murder, decides to go back to the time-honored method of stabbity-stabbing to dispatch the berserking woman that toppled his metal buddy!

[Vincent vs. Berserk Woman: 5+2 vs. 2-1]

And with a decisive stab of two halberds in the vitals the woman goes down and bleeds all over Vincent's buddy! Not that it seems to mind, but still. Vincent decides to help the fellow up.

[Strength roll: 1]

Vincent pulls on his buddy's arm! He doesn't budge. He tries again. Nothing. He goes for the mightiest pull he has ever attempted! His two original arms remain in a death grip around his friend's arm as the rest of him falls backwards! Looks like he'll need either help or lots of cleverness to move his friend.

In a village formerly inhabited by savages...

Vincent figures he might try to pile up some bodies beneath his buddy and get him up that way!

He gets halfway through lugging the crazy lady's stabbified body to his location when he realizes that he doesn't actually have access to the area under the metal man. Oh.

Examine the totem and see what it can do.

In a sticky situation...

Vincent, being at a bit of a loss on what to do now, takes the totem in his only arm and tries to see what it can do!

[Identification roll: ?]

Well, it definitely does some kind of magic. Something bone-related, death-related or some combination of both, he bets. He looks for a means of activation.

[Intelligence roll: ?]

He prays, focuses and plays with the thing, but nothing happens. Probably something more complicated.

Examine the feather-covered piece of wood.

Next to a poor toppled metal man...

Vincent takes a careful look at that feathery piece of crap he also stole from a corpse.

[Identification roll: ?]

Well, it obviously relates to the totem in some way. I mean, they obviously come from the same tribe. Perhaps they are magically connected somehow? Vincent tests this theory by touching the two figurines together.

[Magical shenanigans roll: 5]

Both of the objects glow suddenly! Ooh, what comes next'll probably be really cool!

And it is! Vincent feels the spots where his two original arms used to be tingle! However, this lasts only for a very short bit, as it is soon replaced with a sharp stabbing pain! New bones seem to form out of the very air and create new appendages where the old ones used to be! After a few seconds the horrible pain stops, and Vincent takes a look!

Holy crap, he has massive bony wings now. They have an odd film stretching between the bony bits, so Vincent believes he might actually be able to fly with them. Well, unless flying is a lot harder than it looks. But hey, birds can do it, and birds are well known to be dumb as a box of Servus Cakes, so it couldn't be that hard.

Next to a prone friend in need...

Vincent decides to look for those filthy villagers and avenge the tipping of his friend! He heads out in the direction he last saw them.

[Search roll: 4]

After a short bit of searching, Vincent locates a trail of their footprints! Fresh by the looks of it. Well then, time to go and kill him some savages! He runs after the footprints and soon comes upon a group of the people sitting in a clearing. The chief is among them, as are the already-wounded. Murder time!

[Torus of Murder roll: 1]

Vincent lets loose with the torus, which results in it clonking one of the villagers on the shoulder and raising an alarm among the people!

[People morale roll: 1]

They decide to run away immediately. How... wise of them. Vincent runs after them and grabs the torus from the ground, then tries to hit them again!

[Torus of Murder roll: 1]

The torus flies into a tree and gets stuck in the branches in a disturbing parallel to Vincent's own childhood, such as it was.
