Besides power. And control.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Besides power. And control.

Those aren't skills.

I didn't know there were any advantages or disadvantages to being Cursed or Triggered.

1. How have you not noticed this before?
2. It's right...um...huh. Well, Cursed mages get +1 Power and -1 Control, which I'm sure I mentioned somewhere.

Thanks for quoting my PM. :p

But yeah I.. Can't find it either? Strange. I was never aware that was a thing. :p

Action change.
Go off and find the woman who's supposed to be our mentor.

Well, it's kinda important for half the group...

But yeah I.. Can't find it either? Strange. I was never aware that was a thing. :p

I suspect that the two are related.

Is that so?

But one issue may seem to remain: The Queen herself, capable of acts of powerful magic. Moreover, she has learned in these years how to control her power to extents not seen in living memory.

It may be difficult but if spread into skills instead of raw upgrades (ex: +.5 control to golomancy) it should logically be levelable considering this piece of lore.

[GreatWyrmGold]

1. Mechanically, they are Attributes, not skills.

2. Notice how it took her years. You guys aren't gonna make meaningful improvement over the next few hours.

She sighs, walking up to Selina and rubbing her forehead. "Sup."

[RangerCado]

Her eyes go wide, trying to figure out what she could do to get away! ...But how the heck could she when she couldn't feel her limbs anymore?

[GreatWyrmGold]

"Say, doc, what do y'think? There's all these fools running around making noise, crystals and dangerous crap. Y'think the two of us can kill 'em all and restore the peace? I think that posh guy who got us here'd like that."
Ask. Get treated.
Also, try to summon an oil elemental under my control. Outside, preferably.

"I dunno, kid."
Yay, treatment.
Power: [2+1+0.4-1=2]
Control: [4-1+1-1=3]
You create a little blob of oil. It seems to be interested in sticking near you.
"Hey, get that thing out of here. No way it's sanitary."

Create two swords and fight the bear

Power: [6-0.2-0.4=5]
Control: [4+0.2-0.5=3]
You summon a couple of swords; not really ideal ones, but they're sharp enough and made of metal and stuff.
[4+0.4-0.1-1=4/2+0.4-0.1-1=1]v[6]
One sword misses, the other cuts your leg. The bear's dodging the first drives the spear deeper into its chest, which...the bear doesn't look happy about it.

Dust hands.
That'll do it!
Scootch off into a nearby medical tent and pray no one saw that happen while convincing a doc to treat my wound(s).

You know you didn't destroy all the crystal, right?
You head to a medic, then go to a different one since the first has a blob of slime slithering about in it. You begin getting treated.

Action change.
Go off and find the woman who's supposed to be our mentor.

You head back to the town. Parts of the crystal covering everything have been broken or chipped, but it seems something exploded, hurting a bunch of people.

...
I'm going to regret this but try healing whoever I can.

Bets on how quickly I mess up?

[Parsely]

((OOC I'm naturally a bit concerned seeing as how I just spread that crystal over a large area. But I thought I exploded it once and then crushed it again? I was under the impression that its mostly dust with the pieces that flew everywhere being the the size of pebbles or smaller. I didn't think the crystal was overhuge from the vague impression I got of it, especially since it didn't take me very long to gather up the shards leftover from the initial attempt on my own, with my bare hands and in a single turn..

Can you stop the crystals from growing by breaking them up? If not then that would suck, because then they'd be entirely unstoppable considering it'd be really hard to make them any smaller than dust particles..))

Ask around for the captain. Totally blew that crystal up. Pretty nice work eh? Flex in an attempt to seduce impress him with my Austrian muscles.

[Harry Baldman]

((Why do I get two -1 penalties?))

"I dunno, doc. I'd rather not risk messing with magic too much in here. Things been goin' wrong in all kinds of ways in the past few hours."

Get fixed already! Dismiss oil elemental if possible without any sort of effort.

You did. You just didn't do that to all the crystal.

You'd have to examine them to be sure...
But, just between GM and players, yes that works. I'm not evil.

Which captain?

((Why do I get two -1 penalties?))

One is for the curse, one is because making life is a bit harder than making a glob of oil.

"I dunno, doc. I'd rather not risk messing with magic too much in here. Things been goin' wrong in all kinds of ways in the past few hours."

"If you don't wanna mess with magic, why'd you make that?"
And you're pretty much fixed.

[Harry Baldman]

"Well, doc, sometimes a thought goes through my head and I don't stop it in time. I'll try to get rid of it, and if it ain't gonna work, I'll prolly be shufflin' off not too long from now."
