I MADE A LITTLE PERSON!
Does that mean I figured out the word for human? Nice.
Susan tries communicating with him. "Hello", she says, wondering how he will respond.
He doesn't respond. He doesn't even look at you, he just stares ahead blankly.
"Oh my! Vhere am I now, I vonder? And vhat's zis book?"
Say Magic Word A while looking off into the distance!
[pot:5+1]
Nothing seems to happen.
Silver wings? Damn, that's not what I thought that word was at all.
"Oi! Crystal golem! Go break up that fight!"
Attempt to command the crystal golem to go break up that fight. Also put on wings and see if I can fly. (Jump in place- don't do anything silly like jump off the ledge.)
You think your hardest, pointing and gesturing, yelling "OI, Go thataway!" but it is all for naught, the Living Crystal doesn't seem to want to follow your commands.
As per the wings, you can't even lift them; they each weigh several hundred pounds.
"The word for shaping humans was just said aloud?! If that moron summons a homunculous out of that freaky darkness, I will personally slit her throat."
More Generic action. If Irony does what is detailed above, kill the infernal creature, then her. Kind of forgot Irony's gender, so guessing female.
((Please tell me I'm not the only one who is getting increasingly worried by Irony? I do not want a bestial daemon running amok.
It's nothing personal, it's just business.))
Well, you didn't send me a word so I'll assume this is actual generic action. And Because Irony isn't summoning hellspawn, you're just gonna sit here.
((Shouldn't I be getting a +1 to Dex?
Also, nice shootin', pard! Glad that electrical storm didn't hit me.))
"Gah! Shit!"
Yurf went wide-eyed as the seemingly-live darkness reached for him from the woman's strange whip. He regretfully shoved the hilt of his sword away from him, then turned and rushed down the stairs, shouting to Waldo as he did so,
"Can ya blast this one, too?!"
>Forcefully shove the sword away, letting go before the darkness comes into contact with me.
>Then flee down the stairs to Sanya's staff, quickly touching it with my mummified hand. If that has no nasty effects, pick it up with my left hand for use as a club. Prepare to defend self from attackers/dive away from magical attacks as appropriate. If I have a chance, run back to the south stairs and stay out of sight.
>Once thus armed, go help Waldo lay a beatdown on Alga with my new whacking stick.
((darn i was afraid of that... Probably should have posted in thread to tell you i wanted to swap targets instead of just PMing you... Oh well ))
run towards yurf to defend him against the abomination alga has become, yell my word at her as i move and if she is not incapacitated dodge behind a boulder or pillar.
+1 dexterity
hold fast my friend and i will assist thee.

Alga controls herself just enough to shout out two words as Yurf throws his sword away and scrambles for the stairs. A ball of darkness a foot and a half across bleeds into being, a boiling sphere of shadow and eyes. It hangs in place for an instant before firing forward...and traveling all of 5 feet before hitting Yurf.
[Yurf end:1+1]
The ball slams into Yurf and pops like a water balloon, it's unholy contents spilling out over him. The fluid darkness twitches violently before being seemingly sucked into a pinhole sized point in the center of his chest. Yurf pats himself down in surprise and has just enough time to grin triumphantly at Alga before a black tear opens in his chest. A dozen thin arms burst forth and taloned fingers dig themselves into his flesh, catching hold of limbs and head. And then they pull, tearing him in on himself, collapsing him into his own body in a cacophony of breaking bones and tearing flesh. In an instant he's gone and all thats left is a puddle of blood and a closing gash in reality.
Waldo, actively running toward Yurf when this happens, turns his attention to Alga. He lines himself up just right and shouts his words.
[waldo pot:3+1]
[Alga end:6-1]
A beam of concentrated electricity erupts from the area just in front of Waldo and travels the few feet it needs to before slamming into Alga. She spasms uncontrollably, literally smoking as arcs of electrical discharge scorch her flesh, and collapses, unconscious.
[Yurf is dead. Alga gains 4 points]
