Hey, come on. You had no strength, no speed, no dexterity and no endurance. If that's not an invitation to be mugged for your soul, I don't know what is.

"Are you sure we want to go back there?  Hey- wait!" Derek says, a bit worried.  He didn't ant to meet any crazy people, but he didn't want to be left alone.  It wouldn't be nice anyway, leaving a perfectly friendly lady to wander around all by herself.  The least he could do was come along and offer some support... if he didn't get frightened off.

Derek follows Myra nervously.

"You don't have to follow me though, just stay safe. At least I know someone I can trust here." Myra said back to her companion. "I'll be testing what words are in this book from time to time."

She also looks in front of her and says "Cuidinina".

We're just waiting on Remuthra, since he's playing the murder game.

Oh, I didn't post my "dun't di" message this turn?

Harpoon!

[Derm Spd:5]
[Joe Spd:1+1]

[Derm Str:5-1]
[Joe Str:2-1]

[Joe End:3-1]

Derm and Joe continue their grapple, with Derm finally shoving Joe backwards hard.  Joe falls back into the spikes, and gains several new perforations in his torso.  He chokes, coughs, bleeds, and perishes.  As he fades to ash, a pinprick of light flies out and embeds itself in Derm's chest.

[Joe is dead.  Derm gains a point.]


Lummate.

"Not what I--wait, what? That was...unexpected."

Further (semi-)public science: Pioncale Ofactidio; Kiforiter.

You look into the pit.  It's deep.  There's a lot of magic to do here, so let's get cracking.

[Pot:3+1]  Nothing happens, as far as you can tell.

[Pot:1+1]  Magical ley lines attempt to form themselves over your body, but they lack the energy to finish, and fade away.  Phooey.

[Pot:6+1]  FOOOOOOSH goes the fireball that appears right in front of you.  You didn't really want those eyebrows anyway.


"~Wondrous-miracles!~"

+1 Channeling. Then do things.

[Tod Dex:1+1]
[Derm Dex:5-1]

You hustle and bustle so much to get to your target that Derm hears you coming and cleanly dodges your attack.  Oopsie.


Ofactidio Pioncale

"And something for the road..."

Terosifi

Completely ignoring the murder and attempted murder, you continue to work your magic.

[Pot:6+1]  Ley lines appear and crisscross your body with rapid speed and burst into magical energy before you can blink.  You shudder, shiver, and feel your skin hardening and your body growing colder.  Within seconds, you have been fully transformed into a man made of solid iron.  You look at yourself, then perform the stereotypical move of picking up a rock from the ground and crushing it in your hand- squeak, squeak, grind.

But you're not done yet!

[Pot:1+1]  Oh wait, maybe you are.  You get what looks like a rat's legbone.


checking out the path heading Northeast.
Derek follows Myra nervously.
She also looks in front of her and says "Cuidinina".

(In the future, please keep your actions in one post)

The two of you walk to the northeast, following the natural curve of the cavern.  This section looks much the same as the lower half, with the uneven floors and walls continuing.  You reach the eastern passage, and sure enough- it's a passage back to the room you started in.  As far as you can see, there's only one person in there now.

Myra shrugs and says her word.

[Pot:4]  A good-sized piece of rubber falls to the ground, bouncing a few times.  Hmm.


Charles appears square in the middle of the Grand Room.  He squints in the light.

As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Hey! piecewise stole my spell!
Or independently had the same idea at a suspicious time. Still, I posted first, I deserve being considered the inventor!
Anyways, what happened with Lummare?

Are you a GM with players who haven't posted? TheDelinquent Players Help will have Bay12 give you an action!
[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

Done.  Missed your flavor too.
