Well that sorta worked...
tactical manouvre: run the fuck away
You move a bit deeper in the stairwell and gain try to use your brain.
[will:1-1]
The bear starts trying to dig you out of your hole, scraping and smashing it's way down toward you.
"Thanks a ton! Hey, Mom, Dad, check this out! I'm gonna do some magic!"
Attempt to alter the wind currents around me to make myself levitate. If this works, then float to the top of the gazebo, staying a few inches off of the roof. Then practice spear powers.
[will:3+1]
The air surges up under you and sort of half carries half flings you up to the third floor platform. You land rather awkwardly on your back and spend a few seconds coughing before you pull yourself up to your feet.
"Alright. That works, if not well. Lets try this."
[will:1+1]
[The nose will:2]
Nothing happens.
The Nose gives the gods a rather impatient and dissatisfied look, then looks around.
"Hm. What to do, what to do. Oh, I know."
Good stuff, man.
Arent you still missing a hand on that arm?
I don't think so.
Anyways...DAMMIT, not what I thought would happen.
Szahell. Bind wound.
[Nose dex:4+1]
[Phil dex:4+1]
[Phil Pot:6]
Phil summons a mighty pile of cloth and starts wrapping some around the massive bleeding stump when The Nose jumps on top of him.
[Nose dex:5+1]
[Phil dex:1+1]
[Nose str:6]
The Nose jumps into the air and brings both heels down onto Phil's chest. He then Jumps from Phil's chest to his head, where he proceeds to do a very stompy jig until Phil turns to ash.
[Phil is dead. The nose gains 6 points. ]
Good thing there are four meatshields in my way! You should all fling yourselves at Null while I...
ENGAGE MAGICAL PLAN OMEGA!
[Dex:5+2]
[Null dex:3+2]
[pot:6+2]
You climb up to the second floor and shout your words. A mark crawls across your body, erasing the past marks and then immediately activating. Your entire body becomes a swirling, blinding, multi-color expression of pure arcane energy. You feel fast. You feel Very Fast.
You run back down to the first floor in a blur and charge toward Null.
"Ah, so it's like that is it?" He says, both feet glowing.
"So be it."
Null leaps into the air and keeps going, floating a good 30 feet into the air and leaving you far below.
"The thing about arcane energy is," he says, pointing at you, "It's not immune to itself."
[Null Pot:4+3]
[Null will:6+3]
[dex:6+4]
[dex:5+4]
[dex:3+4]
The air around Null wavers and blurs and a dozen spears of pure arcane energy appear around him. They hover in place for a moment and then streak down towards you. You run serpentine, dodging back and forth at such speed that to the rest of the hapless mages on the first floor you're little more then a multicolor blur ricocheting around the arena. You dodge most of the spears this way, weaving between them as they fall and detonate in the stone, but one catches you right in the chest. The resulting burst of energy hurls you to the ground and leaves a hole in your chest the size of a baseball. Strangely, it doesn't hurt and doesn't seem to effect you, at least as you are.
