Well those bits of sword coulda been fashioned into a crude mace or something, but I like our fearsome familiar as he is. Speaking of which..
Mmm, well, those roots contained liquid, and may be strange enough that, should we hollow them out to use as a carrying medium, no one would really know what the heck it is at first, & just dismiss it offhand as some kind of foreigner thing. Also: carny was made of leather! (not waterproof, but details details).
Also figured since he already maintains a superbly high & variable surface tension, staying within a porous cloth wouldn't be too much of an issue, so darn. Does that mean basin could take evasive actions by melting into sand?

If no discussion:Path. Follow. Go. Experiment with powers. Focus on suflur power. Try combining them.

[Demdemeh]

Have we even tried the sulfur thing yet? I agree, though. Try it out.

[Gentlefish]

Go west, follow the setting sun.

[RAM]

Attempt to animate a 3-legged stone bowl for Basin to ride on.
Go left from the cave entrance.

[ArchAIngel]

Putting a rock on a stick, then tying a knot around it with ripped up cloth strips is not exactly making a greatsword out of basin or something. Anyway, go left from the entrance.

((I'll be out of town this weekend with no internet connection, turn when I return. I'll lump all of the last bits of preparation things together with travel, so if anyone else has a vote on which way to go, now is the time.

If you really want to tie a rock to a table leg with some lengths of cloth torn from damaged robes, sure, but don't be surprised if it isn't a particularly effective weapon (more so, say, than simply hitting someone over the head with a rock or a table leg), or if it falls apart after a hit or two.))

[GrizzlyAdamz]

Despite the tempting action of going left, I'm with going up the path.

[Flying Dice]

Indecisive, you glance back and forth, finally deciding to go left from the entrance. The slope is steep, and you struggle to gain ground, eventually turning so that you are climbing at a diagonal, Basin swirling along at your heels. As you go, you look back over your shoulder, "Basin, would you like me to make something to carry you in?" He quivers violently for a moment, darting away from you. With a sigh, you continue, "I guess that's a no, then." Maybe, given his origin, he doesn't like the idea of being confined?

In an effort to keep your mind off of the occasional pain in your arm and your growing hunger, you tuck your wand away, calling the third, still-untested power into your good hand. Rather than trying to bend it to a specific task, you concentrate solely on the feel of it. In the depths of your mind and soul you can feel it, weaker than the other powers, but still there, a warm stench. It isn't unpleasant, exactly, simply unfamiliar. Your thoughts drift toward the things annoying you at the moment. You barely see the ground ahead of you, so closely are you focused. The power flares, a burst of purple-orange smoke erupting from your left hand. Coughing, you try to wave it away, only to step back in surprise as something speaks from within the thick cloud.

"Whatcha want, lady?"

[] "Hello? Who are you?"
[] "Bend to my will, weakling!"
[] "Your aid, please."
[] "Undying loyalty."
[] Remain silent.
[] Attack the smoke, along with whatever is within.
[] Run away.

"Bend to my will, weakling!"

[GrizzlyAdamz]

Stay silent at first, get (him) to say a bit more.
If he goes to poof away again, [X] "Hello? Who are you?"

This. Good idea. Also, if attacked, have basin make the blade shards in it into a bladed whip, a la castlevania.

[GrizzlyAdamz]

Nah, he won't attack.

[ArchAIngel]

Nah, he won't attack.

It sounds like a lesser demon of some sort. I doubt we could fight off a imp, and if it is a hellhound, we may as well kiss our life goodbye. Preparing will be key. Also, being paranoid is a good idea when dealing with mysterious voices.
