"Elements! Elements everywhere! If I keep this up on this floor.... This could get tricky soon."
Genericia.
((Two questions, is there any way to regenerate pool faster? Most of the good spells need two or even three words to properly function, and waiting could get tedious in the long run. Which could just be encouraging one-word death sprees, like Garstopit over there.
And how much of the floor is filled with all that 6+1 element I've been dropping?
I think so far I've spawned:
Magma Cube
Stone Block
Ice Chunk
Mound of Silver
All of them five plus one or better, I think. Either way they're pretty sizable. Probably in the area of five to eight foot diameter, each.))
[pot:1+1]
A few flecks of gold drift down from nowhere like Midas's dandruff.
(I've been putting off telling people of possibilities, but I suppose I can tell you a bit. There are combinations that would let refill your pool. There are ones that would increase the standard regen rate. There are ones that would let you steal magic from others. There are ones that let you make magic batteries (multiple forms of that). Ones that would let you stop someone's pool from regenerating too. etc. As per all the crap around you, assume that if you haven't done anything with it after a few turns that it just goes away. For the sake of clutter control.)
Magic!
break out
fling GWP at Yarf
run away.
[adam dex:5]
[alga dex:4-1]
[adam str:2]
[adam end:3]
Adam struggles in vain to push the massive bulk of YURF off him, the paralyzed man's grip still pressing on his throat like an iron Garrot. After several agonizing seconds of panicked prying he finally loses consciousness.
[alga pot:6]
Alga, despite her murderous intent and giant lightning death beam succeeds only in seriously menacing the wall on the other side of her level as her beam fires out directly in front of her.
And we have our first mindfuck spell. Congratulations!
Blast. I'll deal with this later- there's MAGIC to be done!
Magical plan SNARF!
"Ugh... darn rubber magic. I'd be better off trying to turn my whole body into lightning at this rate. Well, maybe it's time I do what the book says and kill someone to grow more powerful. It's not the nicest thing to do, but hey, it's me or them, right?"
Drag Jamie to the lightning-rod and throw him on it. If he snaps out of his paralysis, jam my rubber hand down his throat and blast him with Lightning.
"You two girls on the stairs want to help out? I could always use a few friends in a place like this. After all, five hands are better than one. Maybe the power will even split itself up for us. And if not, I'll be sure to protect you two with my life if I get it."
[thrakor dex:5+1]
[Lepus dex:3]
[Thrakor pot:1+1]
[Thrakor dex:2+1]
Thrakor runs to the edge of his level, carefully aims at jamie with his finger, and shouts his word. A toothpick sized shard of crystal materializes in front of Thrakor's finger and halfheartedly sort of fires toward Jamie, falling to the ground after flying a few feet.
[lepus str:3]
As Thrakor stares at his finger in confusion Lepus races around the edge of the second floor and grabs hold of Jamie, trying to drag him back to his "lightning rod". He manages only to get him to the west stairs.
Jamie and YURF suddenly regain their ability to move, jerking back to life like nothing had happened.
