Why is it that I always cause harm to myself when I'm the only one not fighting...

Let's try fixing this...

Hey, on the bright side, I didn't actually kill anyone, or even attack. I'd just wanted to say hi. You actually attacked me with a giant wall, really.

You presented too tempting a target; you provided an opportunity to

A) Learn more about how matter-cancelling works, and
B) Get a soul.

Normally, I wouldn't attack, but this was a two-for one deal. Three-for-one, really, since it also gives me a use for "hippopotamus".

Why was there a roll for a sheep?

Seriously, ATHATH, we need to have an intervention about your death mug problem.

*slow clap* Well ATHATH congratulations. You managed to give the MC a mental breakdown before we even finished the first arc.

So... did those nails actually do anything?
Would have caused bleeding if he was alive. Right now, they are just embedded there.

Why was there a roll for a sheep?
Because, as those who have been following this may already know, I confuse sheep with hippopotamus (I actually have a reason that I can't tell you). It has been corrected.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

We are pretty near to some deaths. It all depends on what do the players do next turn. It is worth mentioning that one team has 50% of the players, so agression between players has decreased quite a lot.

The "What should I do here" is still pretty clear.

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

Death is always an option.

It just kinda happened!

Okay, PMs sent. I have been busy lately, and I will still be busy, but I will see if I can make a turn one of these days.

Tribulations in Magic: Back with a death!
« Reply #2474 on: June 18, 2015, 09:20:22 am »

Turn 120

Why is it that I always cause harm to myself when I'm the only one not fighting...

Let's try fixing this...

AAAAAAAARGHHH, I... CAN'T ...STAND... IT!

[End:3-1+1=3]
Ali can't overcome the sensation! That damned sound is still piercing his mind! He has to get rid of that.

[Pot:6-2=4]
[Pot:3-2=1] 1/2=0.5
[Pot:2-2=0]

Total pot: 4+0.5+0=4.5 rounded up to 5.

A mass of a formless semi-transparent matter appeared and begun to shove everything away. The ear piercing sound disappeared just as the ripples where the book had been ceased to exist. Huh, maybe not even magic was needed to stop that.

He uses this opportunity to do more science!

[Pot:6]
A thick golden line appears and draws a big eagle.

[Pot:5]
Another line appears, this time drawing a nunchacku.

[Pot:2]
Yet another golden line, one that sadly does nothing besides slightly moving without orientation.

At least your problem was solved.

Quote from: PMs
ACTIONS FROM ALL THE GUYS STUCK IN THE GREENHOUSE ROOM

[Derm spd:3+1=4]
[Thrakor spd:1-1=0]
[Bucky spd:1]
[TNI spd:3-2-1=0]
[Flimsy spd:4-1-1=2]
[Bigf01t spd:4]

The fight between Derm and the Sphess Wzhardrd continues now that the black hole has incredibly receded in size. Derm strikes first:

[Derm pot:6]
[Thrakor dex:3]

Derm walks up to him and materializes a big cloud of a purple fog! Thrakor barely manages to get out of it, coughing. Damn, that thing is nasty! But Derm pressures his attack even more!

[Derm dex:4+1-1=4]
[Thrakor dex:6-1-1=4]

Unfortunately for him, this time the Sphess Whizard manages to evade the sharp claws directed at his throat. He swallows just at the thought of getting his throat sliced open.

Meanwhile, Bigf01t decides to do something:

He lifts his mace and hurls it at the black hole cub!

[Bigf01t str:5]
[Bigf01t dex:2+2=4]
[Bucky spd:1-1=0]

Aided by his recently-found powers, the demonic morningstar is hurled at the weakened bear. It soars through the air, seemingly impervious to gravity, thanks to the mental manipulation from Bigf01t's part. The bear cub doesn't even manage to react, both because of how well-aimed is the throw and how his very form is attracting what will be the instrument of his doom. The mace, still emitting the screaming sounds of the damned and two more unfortunate victims, impacts right against the head of the animal, which disappears alongside it, just as his chest. The creature then just disintegrates, the rest of the void matter dispersing and cancelling itself with the environment. A thin line of white smoke appeared in the place the bear had just occupied, and moved softly towards Bigf01t's chest. By this time, he is used to this sensation, but hell, it is still as good as always!

Bucky is dead! Bigf01t gains a stat point!

The Flimsy Wizard just escaped the room as this happened, and soon found himself on the Arcane Room. Ahh, the sound of spontaneous matter-exploding discharges, it is relaxing, isn't it? He realizes that the hippo had the same idea as him, and is eyeing him carefully.

Not Igor, back in the Greenhouse Room, tries to summon all he can:

Spoiler: Rolls (click to show/hide)

A pile of assorted biometal parts falls over Not Igor. He accomplished all that he wanted. Presumably.

The fight between the Whizahrd and Derm continues, this time Thrakor aims for a counter-attack!

[Thrakor dex:3-1=2]
[Derm dex:1+1-1=1]

[Thrakor str:2-1=1]
[Derm str:2-1=1]

Thrakor manages to grab Derm. And that's it, because neither of these pussies can gather enough strength to do something to the other part. Oh, well.

Unfortunately for the Whizhard, he is beginning to cough a lot

Thrakor has [Coughing]!

An imposing sound echoes through the Greenhouse Room. The tribal fiend is charging his powers, as the multitude of dancing shadows laugh maniacally at it:

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR

ATHATH appears in the Magma Room. He proceeds to be as generic as possible
