SEE IF ANYTHING COMPARABLE TO THE WARP(40K) EXISTS IN THE UNIVERSE

THE GM FOR THE RESSURECTION OF COOLRUNE DOES NOT WISH TO MESS WITH TIME.

[mastahcheese]

Remind me to throw people out windows more often.

Sacrifice arm to Uhluhtc.

in your panic, you do not realize that using a scythe is counter-productive! you slash your arm with the scythe! in your panic, you do not actually cut as deep as you intend to! you spray blood over the partial pentagram! -3%! it is sacrificed to Uhluhtc! -6%

...oops?

You are bleeding profusely.  You are somewhat dizzy.

Hug the being, and ask if it has to leave. If not, offer to verse it in a quick, easy game for more help. Rock paper scissors, tic tac toe, or other similar games. If it leaves, wallow in sadness.

"I will not be leaving. Instead, I will be observing. However, as long as your resurrection status is positive, you may whisper ideas to the being attempting to resurrect you. "

SEE IF ANYTHING COMPARABLE TO THE WARP(40K) EXISTS IN THE UNIVERSE

There is a portion of the afterlife which has been corrupted much like the warp. It has been quarantined by the efforts of nyan-cat, Uhluhtc, and 6 Ponies.





You are panicking! Actions taken while panicking will be much more erratic!

There is a town.  There are stores in the town, which you can loot at your leisure. Traveling to and from the town is a free action.  There are passed out shopkeepers.

You have a crude pentagram of sticks. Blood is smeared on the sticks.  2 sticks are missing.

You have 2 sticks.

You have vague theoretical knowledge about necromancy. You feel that more knowledge will be needed to complete the ritual.

You have a scythe.  scythes help push spirits towards the afterlife.

Your shirtsleeve is bloody and charred.

Your shirt is bloody.

You are bleeding profusely from one arm.

You are somewhat dizzy from blood loss.

A passing entity named urgl??! has paused nearby to observe and give information.

Resurrection status: -4%
(oops!)

What do you do?

"Living peeeoplee.... make a hexagon.... put yelllooowwwww candles around it!!! Then sacrifice stuff to Uhluhtc! Blood will be needed! Also, someone grab my body from outside the window where I died! It'll help with the resurrection! I must go now! I'm gonna try playing checkers with this guy!"

"So, Uh, you. What's your name again? I'd love to play a game of checkers!"
Whisper info to the living, then play checkers versus the deity/horror.

Buy loot some black and orange candles, and melt their wax into an decagram while putting more red and black candles around it. Fill in the diagram with a little more blood, then calm down and stop panicking and cauterize your wounds with the black candles. Buy loot some colored beads and braid them into your hair, then use them as places to put some yellow candles.

The shopkeepers all pass out in fear, leaving their stores open to you to loot from at your leisure!

BUY?!?!

You do so. Your sanity slips ever so slightly.

A talking pink pony proceeds to berate you for your stupidity. It leaves before you can do anything about it.

Blood is almost always needed.

Scythes are only ever used to send spirits towards the afterlife, never to bring them towards life.

Pentagrams work, but they are horribly inefficient.  In this world, hexagrams are actually preferred.

Heptagrams are theoretically more efficient and faster than hexagrams, but they are somewhat risky: the wrong phase of the moon, the wrong color of clothes, the wrong weather conditions, and the heptagram  will do the opposite of what you want.  octagrams are, again, even more efficient and fast acting in theory, but are so horribly unstable that almost nobody ever uses them.

Cthulhu is not the name of an eldritch god in this universe.  Uhluhtc, however, is.

Candles are very, very helpful to guide spirits to the diagram. Red candles are typical.  Orange candles sacrifice speed for increased stability.  yellow candles sacrifice consistency for speed. Green candles negate the need for blood, but may require other components in its place. White candles will repel evil spirits, but may slow the ritual down.  Black candles will speed the ritual up, but will attract evil spirits.

Lastly, resurrections are easier if there is a body to ressurect into.

[Coolrune206]

Start the checkers game by quickly giving pieces, but line them all up for one easy chain of takes, which should cripple him.

[flabort]

Line the black candles up on the scythe, put the scythe into the middle of the pentagram, and then melt orange candles and green candles onto the pentagram in order to expand it into a decagram.
