There are much less roundabout ways to die, derm.

There are several direct ways to make others do so, Wyrm.

I was making a joke based on the fact that your statement was vague on who you were working on killing.

Second verse, same as the verse.
Also actions!

The two of you continue your underwhelming fight.

[Derm Spd:5]
[Tod Spd:2+1]

[Derm Dex:2]
[Tod Dex:3+1]

Derm grabs for Tod again, but goes wide right.  Enraged, he magics at him again.

[Derm Pot:6+1]
[Tod End:6]
[Derm End:6]

A massive gout of flame erupts in front of Derm, engulfing Tod.  Tod, in his pain, lunges out and pulls Derm in with him- but the cloud is too dispersed by the time Derm enters the area.  Tod staggers back, his burns much worse now.  Most of his hair is burned off, it looks like he's having trouble seeing, and he's clearly in pain.


Zebridonce Zentol. Munch on candy.
Zentol. Offer candy to someone nearby.
Oozoto

[Pot:6+1]  A six-foot candy cane flops out from your hand.  Sadly, there are no children nearby to tempt with it.

[Pot:4+1]  A bunch of candy bars form in the air in front of you and pile onto the ground.  Hmmm.

[Pot:1+1]  It's hard to tell since you can't really see your own head, but you think magical ley lines tried to appear on it.


He also tries to reverse the metal leg syndrome in any way possible with said stupid wand.  If he screwed up his legs with it, it might fix them for him again!

You bang on your leg with the wand, yelling at it to fix your leg.  When nothing happens, you angry point it forward and will it to do something.

[Wand:3]  A small dagger, made seemingly of woven hair, appears in front of you and falls to the ground.  On inspection, you notice the hilt is a pair of tiny wings.  The blade is about as sharp as your finger.


Seek the nearby fight.

You mosey toward where Derm and Tod are clashing.  Better not get too close- that was a pretty big fireball.


Alviscos Josionp Tifesslos

You combine one of your favorite words with two others to see what shakes out.

[Pot:4+1]  A stack of arrows appears and falls to the ground.  The shafts are steel, but the heads appear to be... solid light?  They're bright and radiating heat.


Pioncale... Josionp... GOSTOPHORI!

You rub your words together, visions of metal sheep in your head.

[Pot:6+1]  Magical ley lines race across your body, causing the magic in your leg to be forcibly kicked out.  Your leg returns to normal for a split second before the ley lines burst and exert their power on you.  Your body shrinks to a tight steel core, which quickly begins to grow massive amounts of hair.  The hair curls and forms a dense core around your solid frame.  It's not metallic hair, but it's pretty damn thick.


Quote from: Players
Scapheap:  Jack - Center, Spike Room  [Iron Armguards] {Left hand is foot-long bone whip, tourniquet on stump, legs burned}
GreatWyrmGold:  The Golden Scholar - Center of the Bridge, Bottomless Pit  (Ley lines covering whole body- Body is rubber skin over steel bones and fire guts.)
Dermonster:  Derm - West of Center, Spike Room (1/5 Pool) (4)
Piecewise: Bob -  North Center, Spike Room  (Made of Air)
Tiruin:  Myra - North exit, Magma Room [Holding sheet of rubber]
Lasla:  Derek Grimdur - West side, Magma Room  [Wand]  {Legs are iron bootclubs}
Harry Baldman:  Tod-5 - West of Center, Spike Room  {Burns covering body, partially blinded, several bleeding cuts on back, in pain} (2)
The Ensorceler:  Charles - South side, Grand Room (Entire body is wooly over steel frame)


Looks like our murder drought is almost over.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Munch on the candy bars and take the candy cane as a weapon.

Load up the bow and shoot an arrow into the wall to see how it works. Here's hoping it explodes.

And just for fun:

Guess i should start meta-gaming now...

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.

Where's the fun in that? I plan to just jump in and start sayin' random words. I'll probably end up turning myself into a Nerf golem or something.

I can't be expected to remember the names of everyone I've tried to stab.

I'd counter ask what the fun is in not being able to play for an untold amount of deaths but I want you to remain ignorant and vulnerable so I won't.
