Why am I only getting two actions a turn? Is it because of the concussion?

Accept ring, then Will syvarris speed to increase. Will my mech to finish reforming, then meet up with Doctor Octogonapus(Parisbre). Accept the control ring, and will my concussion to go away. Will my thallids to regrow, then will them to grow a number of ring shaped protrusions that can be easily pried off without breaking. If any of the above fail and I still have actions, retry.

Command all but one of my butterflies to form a large barrier of gold in front of me to protect me from whatever the light does. If successful, send the remaining butterfly to touch the seal.

Goddamnit, stupid level 1 god favor being impossible to charge

-2 channeling +1 strength

work on recovering that which was lost.

Avoid being near the giant circle when it activates.

Not sure what you mean "impossible to charge." Oh wait, gotta change the circumstances for getting points in that back down to simple fire usage. I'm thinking about changing it so that god favor stays...or at least god LEVEL. Maybe you lose a number of points up toward the next level. Hmm.

Anywhoo.

[pot:6+1]
Yeah, you run out to the temple grounds and pump yourself up.

Go find some room with some space to work.

You want that space where magic works or not? Because if you want it where it works, then temple grounds, if not, where you are is fine.

Another sound from the cave, this time a whoosh, then two screams, then nothing. Seeing Sparky return back to him without John worried him. "John? John, you alright man? John, speak to me! ...Dammit. Seems I'm alone now. Ah well, I think John would be at that one place, the temple, right? Bah, its such a long trek though, I need to make things faster... Gah." Glassco groaned to himself, then sighed and looked at the possibly-finished, possibly-not boat. "...I hate leaving work unfinished, but I don't have time." Glassco raises a hand, says "Taroth Shaazeshelial," then snapping his fingers at the same time as he activates the mark. If and only if his whole body is stone, then will he command Sparky to grab him and take to the skies.

[Piecewise, for Bigf00t's hammer, don't you mean bone instead of steel? Darn words, all looking the same.]
(Maybe...lets see if he notices..)

[pot:1]
[end:1]

Team Skypirates: Chronically unlucky or victims of a gypsy death curse? News at 11.

Yeah, you're dead.

Why am I only getting two actions a turn? Is it because of the concussion?

Accept ring, then Will syvarris speed to increase. Will my mech to finish reforming, then meet up with Doctor Octogonapus(Parisbre). Accept the control ring, and will my concussion to go away. Will my thallids to regrow, then will them to grow a number of ring shaped protrusions that can be easily pried off without breaking. If any of the above fail and I still have actions, retry.
Because I assumed that the whole "Go do things in my mech" would require the mech to move. Also because I figured hey, you're concussed, you just got punted through several trees, and your attempts to regrow your mech failed. You may pause for a moment to reflect on life and the amazing fact that you're still existing.

You take the ring and try to make a fast zombie out of Sy.
[will:3+2-1]
That succeeds. He becomes sleek and supple. For a zombie.
[will:3+3-1]
So you reform that mech of yours. You ride it all the way up to the village homes where Doc is. But as I see it he has no ring so that must be coming up later.

PW:  Did I get the Mask of Scarlon?

Head down to the village center where Paris is.
You did. Added that now.

You also head down to see Doc Squid-a-pus.



"Well, I don't trust that light in the slightest... I guess that's what gold is for."

Command all but one of my butterflies to form a large barrier of gold in front of me to protect me from whatever the light does. If successful, send the remaining butterfly to touch the seal.

Ever see what happens when a moth flies into a bug zapper? Imagine that but the bug zapper is hooked up to the powerlines. It's loud, it's very bright and it doesn't leave anything behind.

Encourage everyone to get out of the temple grounds, whether escorting people through from the temple directly to the mist, or keeping them in the temple. Herd people (except Derm) who were in the area out, either into temple or fog.

ACTIVATION!



You run into the temple and hide behind a wall while willing the circle to activate.

Stand in the center of the circle.

"Right then, LETS FIRE THIS SHIT! FOR THE GLORY OF TEAM AETHER, AND THE POWER OF SHUB-SHALSEIL!"

ACTIVATION!

(Also damn you for making me wait.)

You walk into the center of the circle and will it to activate

(I'll share a secret with you. Even if we activated it right now, you'd still be waiting 3 turns till it actually activates because someone decided to affix a timer rune to the thing.)

"~Easy-peasy! Now-for-something-more-unusual.~"

More things.
You didn't send me anything.

Probably because I'm doing this really fast.

ZOOOOOOM

Oh hey, a timer rune?  Now you have King of the Hill to see who gets to be activated upon!



Start checking the buildings/basements for some crazed villager to kill.  If one is found, will it to stab itself.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

Ponder the glory of my continued existence and narrow escapes. Accept the control ring, and will my concussion to go away. Will my thallids to regrow, then will them to grow a number of ring shaped protrusions that can be easily pried off without breaking. If any of the above fail and I still have actions, retry.

Right as his fingers snapped, he felt a strange shifting, as if he was thrown very fast into pure air, then as if he was thrown right back as if a boomerang. The sound of snapped fingers resounded in the respawn chamber as a very confused Glassco, or at least what one can gleam from his masked face, looks around. "Well... Uh... That wasn't exactly what I meant by 'getting back fast.' Wait, shit, I left Sparky! Wonder if I'm still connected to him... Also, I feel kinda funny. Like... I lost connection with something, but feel... Stronger? Weird. I think I may be getting used to this death thing."
Spoiler: Funny Feeling (click to show/hide)
Glassco shook his head with a sigh. "Whatever. Wonder if I'm still connected to Sparky..." Glassco moves on down to the Hall of Heroes, and tests to see if he's still connected with Sparky.

[And in a single day, the Death-O-Meter rose two notches. Total running Death-O-Meter Count: Five]

Hide behind a nearby rock and will the rune to ACTIVATE!
If there is no nearby rock say "Chall-thel Adamenstiar Caoncarthel" and hide behind that.

I follow after Glassco.
"I hope it does work. If not, we might need to build a new temporary airship, or maybe make ourselves some wings."

((On that note, is anyone willing to give me (or trade me) the word combination to get wings? I know all the relevant words but not how to do anything useful with them.))

Addendum:
After following Glassco out of the temple walls, I say "Taroth Caoncarthel".

Didn't someone near the spawn have some free equipment they were handing out?
((Yeah, that's me, I'll be willing to provide equipment that either currently have (excluding my gauntlets) or I can make anything that requires four or less on demand as long as its creation potentially harmful to myself or any other player. I'll be heading to the room with the monks in it this turn.))

Silica runs to the edge of the anti-magic zone and says <words>. She will take it if it is something that she can safely hold. She will then walk to the room with the monks and deploy her forcefield facing the location of the circle and granting activation consent.
