we have a deal, if you summon my new pet inside the stone tower i will relinquish your staff and make no attempts to free it from its confinement.
powerslide over to radzak, command sniper tree to animate the top branches and throw its occupant out into thin air.
After doing this hand the god flower back to radzak but do not release my hold on it until he has fulfilled his part of the bargain. Be prepared to defend myself in case of a doublecross
Ah, karma.
Hang on for dear life.

Sven slides over to Razdak and gestures at Lootington's tree with the flower. The top branches immediately come to life, and despite his best efforts, Lootington is hurled into the air. He claws wildly at the air as he plummets to the ground, but by the time he grabs onto a branch, he's moving so fast that his arm is ripped from his socket. There's a wet splat as he collides with the forest floor, and another smaller one as his severed arm lands on his corpse.
SIR ROBERT LOOTINGTON IS DEAD!(Sven luck: 5+1)
As Sven hands the staff back to Razdak, something small falls out of the sky and bounces off his head. It appears to be a pair of of glasses rimmed with silver, and as Sven puts them on, the clothes, skin, and muscle of those around him seem to disappear, leaving only the skeleton and slightly glowing organs visible.
That's why I plan to build a cage for it, and I'm not going to summon the marlboro king until Arthur is out of their because Greencloaks don't kill people for no reason.
When Sven hands me back the staff, I'll create a cage made of trees big enough to hold a marlboro king with bars spaced wide enough to allow Arthur to escape but not enough to let the monster out.
(Razdak affinity: 1+5+4) I love how even when you roll a one, it's actually a ten
You reclaim your staff from the newly bespectacled Sven, and gesture towards the center tower. There's an ominous rumbling sound before several gigantic trees burst through the stone, weaving their branches together to form an enormous living cage. There's plenty of room for Arthur to squeeze through, but now the tower is beginning to collapse...
Not only did I save you from that old man, I "upgraded" your guardian angel!
...Did I just way that?
Anyways.
Leave the tower and locate some cover. Create a portal under (whoever Mr. Fancy Pants is playing) and one as high up as possible.
(Arthur dexterity: 2+1-1)
(Arthur endurance: 5)
Just as Arthur drags himself out of the cage, the tower begins to crumble apart. He frantically crawls across the ground, trying to escape the rubble, but a stone the size of a cinderblock strikes him in the back of the skull, knocking him unconscious. Perrin looks on at the tower and his former ally, before a portal suddenly opens up beside him. A man wearing a fancy brown suit and a navy blue tie steps out of it, and clears his throat before calling out to everyone in the arena.
"Hey, just checking up on you guys again. Our scientists have been doing some research on those new items you've found, and we managed to make this little thing to show you." The man reaches into the portal and pulls out a small and brightly colored pistol, which radiates a harsh and piercing light.
"It's a... it's... You know what? We don't really know what it is. Nobody's fired it yet, and we've got three different governments paying us not to point it in their general direction. But out here... Everybody, you might want to take a step back."(Stranger dexterity: 4+6)
(Perrin dexterity: 4+1-1)
(Stranger affinity: 2+8)
(Perrin endurance: 6+1)
With a pull of the trigger, a miniature thundercloud rockets out of the pistol and completely envelops Perrin, crackling ominously with red and blue lightning. There's a slight humming noise, and a portal opens up on the ground nearby. Perrin's torso emerges from this gap, horribly burned and scarred, but still alive and conscious, until the portal snaps shut on his midsection, bisecting him.
"Well... ummm... I guess we know what it does now..."PERRIN IS DEAD!(Stranger luck: 4+12)
As the man puts the gun back into his pocket, being very careful not to pull the trigger, a portal opens directly in front of him. He jumps backwards in shock, and
a sharply dressed man with a head of fiery orange hair steps out.
"You know, this whole treasure hunting thing is kind of fun. But where have I seen this guy before?""Never gonna give you up!""Oh fuck me... that's where. If any of you engineers back home can hear this: GET ME THE HELL OUT OF HERE!" A portal immediately opens behind the brown-suited man, and he dives through it, closely followed by orange-hair, who indeed does not give him up. There is a single resounding
"GOD DAMMIT!" before the portal closes, and everything is back to normal. Well, at least not any more abnormal than things usually are.
Lucky stares at Lilia for a while, stroking his chin as if he was thinking.
"W-what? Is something wrong with me?" Lilia says while getting embarrassed by Lucky staring at her.
"Not bad... not as quite cute as before, but this defiantly has it's own style as well... I approve!" Lucky finally says after a while, not caring if Lilia knows what he's talking about or thinks he's weird, "I need to thank whoever opened up that portal thing. Not only did that portal save my ass, but also it gave your look an nice upgrade."
"Huh?" Lilia looks at herself, finally realizing what Lucky was talking about, "W-w-what at you staring at!? Ah geez!" And with that she flies off to the north through the tall grass, half embarrassed and half angry.
Lucky just grins while chuckling to himself and says, "I think she forgot that was supposed to be guarding me." Then he realizes he forgot to say what he wanted to say and runs after her.
Head north toward the top corner. If I meet Razdak or Unlucky, greet them and team up with them. If they agree, see if Lilia can put some of her shields on them as well. If attacked and within my range, ax the person. If they aren't in my range but nearby, have Lilia geyser my attacker.
"It appears my luck has spread to you as well." Unlucky looks south. "Something seems familiar about that person, but I'm not sure what." do nothing. wait for lucky to approach.
Lucky rushes off after Lilia, and soon finds her, along with three other people. One of them is a bespectacled swordsman in a grey cloak, and the other is a wrinkly fellow in a green cloak carrying a flower more than twice as tall as he is. The third... Lucky rubs his eyes and looks again.
"Unlucky, is that you?"Go north
You walk north, and wait in the muddy lakebed. You can hear conversation between several people in the tall grass to the north of you, and you hide behind the dense foliage, out of sight.
THE ROCK APPEARS BEHIND THE BOULDER, AND ALANI SPAWNS INSIDE OF THE GRASS TOWER(The Rock luck: 3-6)
The Rock's waiver begins to hiss ominously, and he drops it just before it morphs into a small syringe of silvery fluid with beady yellow eyes and a set of four grasshopper-like limbs. It makes a high-pitched whirring noise, and turns to face its "owner".
(Alani luck: 5+3)
Alani's waiver rolls itself into a bow, before solidifying, the paper being replaced with a material like stone, but far lighter. As she picks the bow up, she feels herself become heavier, and finds that her flesh has been replaced with the same type of stone that the bow is made of. Several stone arrows sprout from her back, forming a pair of gargoyle-like wings. She experimentally breaks one of the arrows off, and not only does it not hurt, but a new arrow immediately grows back to replace it.
