Turn 075I think I'll just dodge this turn. Maybe try some science next turn, assuming I'm still alive.
Kill him for God's sake. Can I overdrive my str yet?
Systar is too tired to continue this charade, so he just goes for the kill. Zolond, on the other hand, tries to prevent that from happening:
[Systar dex:6
-1+1=6]
[Zolond dex:1
-1+1-1=0]
[Systar str:5
+1+2-1+1=8]
But the poor crippled Zolond doesn't manage to evade the hammer. One strike and the world becomes dizzy around him, a second hit and he loses consciousness, and a damned flurry of hateful strikes slowly but steadily break his skull until it caves in and the hammer is stuck in it. Systar breathes heavily, as a white smoke comes out of the deceased's chest and goes inside Systar's.
Zolond is dead. Systar gains a stat pointSystar puts a foot over the dead head and yanks out his hammer. All this murdering thing is more complicated that what it seemed.
"I have no idea what just happened. LEG! WOOHOO! Now this other one..."
Operation: "Stop being a cripple" continues!
[Pot:5
+1=6]
A thick golden line appears and draws a big foot. No, not the player, an actual foot. With a flash of light it materializes into wax and falls to the ground. Hmm, it is a bit too big for an actual foot. Maybe you can remove some of the extra wax? Nah, who cares. You put it below your foot-less leg.
[Pot:4
+1=5]
Your leg flashes with light, and the iron spear is separated from it. Then both your whole body and the wax foot begin too glow. You hope this works as intended. With a flash of light, you are now made of biometal! And the foot too! Problem is, it is not attached to your leg. Maybe you have to use some kind of shape to actually combine them.
Biometal body:
[Light][Yields][Soft][Naturally sharp]Burns changed to
[Slightly mauled]And you have back your spear!
This is just a post, not the actual action
You focus your inner dragon:
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR!
PM
Like if the sheep wall made of assorted materials is not enough, you try more weird word combinations:
[Pot:4
+1=5]
A golden line appears and draws a sphere. From that sphere, in six different directions, other small spheres emerge. And from these spheres, even smaller ones emerge. As you are already familiar with these fractal things, it continues ad-infinitum. It makes you wonder, can something be
more fractal? Hmm, it doesn't look like something you can quantify.
-snip-
Try to stop the bleeding!
When Push comes to shove, you know what they say...
Overdrive Dex, of course! 
THAT's what they say!
Bigf01t is waiting patiently, when something comes running from the Greenhouse Room. And it is carrying a large knife. But if it is his friend Planky!
He hears in his mind: "Help meeeeeeee, I'm going to turn ba-" but he is interrupted as tiny golden particles begin to be absorbed by his body. "Damn". He flashed with light, and then he was back in his half a log form that he had when he came to the world. He sighed, now with an actual voice, and looked at you with his wooden eyes, his eyebrows, two splinters above his eyes, made an inhuman effort to form the infamous "begging dog" face. With that, he looked at you and said: "Can you help me again?"
You notice that there is a hole across his form. He has been in some fights, it seems. On the other hand, you got back the knife you gave him. But you have more important things to do now, likely, keeping an eye on those two guys:
Li instantaneously jumps to the magma moat, hoping for his arm to stop bleeding once and for all. But Trevor will use this to his advantage. As the blue robed wizard screams from the pain of the cauterization, he tries to push him:
[Trevor dex:3
+1=4]
[li dex:5
-1=4]
[Trevor str:5]
[li str:5
-1=4]
Li manages to turn back and somewhat push with his only arm so that he doesn't fall into the magma, but he is slowly losing to the two armed guy.
Bigf01t then decides that this is an easy enough kill, so he goes for it:
[Bigf01t dex:4
+1-1-1=3]
[li dex:2
-2=0]
[Bigf01t str:5
+1=6]
[li will:3
-1=2] ((7-2=5 5/2=2.5 rounded up=3))
Bigf01t simply strolls in and sweeps the back of Li's leg with his morningstar, causing him to fall. Trevor instinctively releases him and moves his head back as the second strike comes from above over the wizard's leg. The tongue-spike of the morningstar pierces the leg as the blunt force of the impact just finishes to fracture it. Li screams in agony, not only because of the pain, but because of his soul being sucked away by the demonic head feeding off his leg. In what seemed like an eternity, he feels how he is progressively separated from his body, how he gets to float in limbo. Then how he doesn't actually
feel, and then how his existence dissipates. A dark-green version of his face, still screaming in despair, travelled through the air and got sucked by the morningstar, that now, between other screams, emitted that of Li. And between other of the distorted faces that came as green smoke out of the weapon, it was his.
Li is dead. Bigf01t gains a stat pointBigf01t removes his demonic weapon from the leg of the deceased Li, blood still dropping from the tongue that pierced the flesh. A line of with smoke emerged from the body's chest and got sucked by Bigf01t's. Damn, he missed this sensation.
Trevor just looks at Bigf01t, unsure if to call him a killstealer and get killed is a good idea.
