I edited another guess into my post. Also, if I remember right, the plasma ability charges during movement. Or possibly only from movement. So I could hit thing to build up charge, then release that charge for a bigger attack. I think all charge is expended when it is used, so I would then go back to trying to hit things to build it up. I don't know if you want to make it so that only successful hits build charge or not. I was thinking five levels of charge.
Level one: a small projectile of plasma that does small damage. Like maybe 1-2 damage
Level two: a slightly larger projectile that does 2-4 damage
Level three: a medium projectile that does 3-6 damage
Level four: a big projectile that does 4-8 damage. Also, a charge around his body that does 1-2 damage to Melee attackers
Level five: an energy field around him that mitigates some damage and does more damage to Melee attackers. When the charge is expended, it takes the form of a hard to dodge wave of plasma.
Also, I was wondering if each charge level could incrementally increase his combat effectiveness, but that might be a bit too much. And each level of charge could take longer than the previous one to build up. Like, 1 turn or hit for level 1, two more for level 2, three more for level 3, etc.

This could work. Yeah, let's do it like this.

5. Where are you again? You can feel you are on a soft bed. Upon opening your eyes, you see the lighting is rather dim. Still, you can see in it, and that's all that matters. You notice there is a door close to your bed.

Get off the bed and open the door a little to peek outside.

Her stomach growled, but she didn't really care. Hurled out again. She ground her teeth. She'd get her revenge one day, oh yes.

Look for a fight.

"... ..."

Sugar groaned as she abruptly woke up in an unfamiliar area. It was difficult to see, save for a faint bit of light. She noticed she was tucked in a rather comfy bed, the covers gingerly draped over her, though not so much as to be constricting. A small bit of her wanted to laze back into rest, but a few moments of thinking had her realize that the area see was in wasn't even remotely her room, and that her actual bed wasn't nearly as soft. Her thoughts raced for a moment as she attempted yet failed to think back to the events immediately prior, and she somewhat reluctantly slid out of the covers and onto the flooring, taking the time to rearrange the bed afterward.

"Hello? I- is anyone there?"

The room smelled faintly of smoke, no doubt from the burning light source, and the air was somewhat cool despite the lack of a draft. The fairy took the time to inspect herself to see what was on her, but eventually noted that she had only the clothes on her back, and not even fully at that, lacking shoes. After a brief moment of fixing her outfit so as to make sure everything was properly aligned (we can't have our socks raised to different lengths, now can we?), she decided her next course of action.

>Use light ability to better illuminate the room, and search it for any objects of interest, though don't take anything yet.

Action 1=5. Action 2=1.

4.

Jyak POV
Jyak sits there on his bed, counting money. He seems to have around 200is left over, but there might be some more in that chest where his belongings, few as they are, we're stored for the night. He is vaguely aware of the sound of footsteps walking up the hallway.

Ion POV
Ion wakes up in unfamiliar surroundings, on a rather soft bed. It's rather dim, but he can see well enough. There is a door close to the bed. Ion walks up to it and, upon finding that it is unlocked, opened it a little, to take a peek. He sees a long hallway, with many doors. There is one right beside his, actually. The place is slightly similar to dungeons, but Ion hadn't done anything wrong lately. Whee was he?

McGunn POV
McGunn was only vaguely aware of where he was going, concentrated as he was on finding the thugs that had beat him up.To be truthful, he was slightly afraid, seeing as how they beat him up. Then again, he was tired after the exam, and they caught him off guard. Still, after walking around for a bit, he found the thugs. They recognised him, but almost shat their pants after seeing that he was not the slightest but tired, and searching for them. McGunn had proved quite a challenge, even in that state. You can't quite recall what species they are. They are a bunch of weird green teardrop shaped things, with these two yellow bulb things on their head.

Ketari POV
Ketari was angry. That was the only way to put it. She was angry at how easily those bastards had handled her. But mostly she was angry at herself, for being so weak. Wh couldn't she win, just once, against those bast wards from the dojo? She spent a while looking for a fight, but nobody was willing.

Sugar POV
Sugar decide that the current light source was simply not enough to see what was going on, and lit up the room using her light powers. There weren't any interesting objects around, other than the candle, and a chest of some sort. Sugar came to the conclusion that she was in an inn. Again. She still wondered what happened on Pop  Star to change it so much from what fairies heard in legends, though.

Wang POV
Wang got out of the box he had called home for the past month or so. It was useful, since he could move it around constantly while searching for that dog bastard that killed everyone he cared about. He learned long ago that his species was called Boxin. He was still confused as to why he couldn't fully remember what that Boxin looked like, though. He knew their general appearance, but he couldn't remember any distinguishing features. He was in an alleyway, with some bins stacked up against the wall. Looking out the exit, it was fairly obvious that he was in a rather busy city. That was good to know.

Name: Sugar
Age: Somewhere between 10-60, (hard to tell with fairies) physically appears around 12.
HP: 16
Ability/Gadget: Other then the standard ability to hover in place that most fairies possess (wings help with that), Sugar has the ability to launch bullets of energy at an appreciatively rapid rate.

Deals 1-2 damage, 30% chance of blindness, 20% chance of stunning. Can shoot up to twice per turn. Ranged.
Goal: Having somehow stranded herself on Popstar after events of which she cannot really remember, Sugar is desperately trying to find a way back to her idyllic home-world after her initial perceptions of Popstar (that it was a safe, relatively harmless world where cute little critters roamed) proved very, very incorrect. Nevertheless, she prefers befriending to attempting to fight, and likes attempting to befriend anything that isn't trying to consume her.
Bio: Hailing from the lovely heart-shaped world of Ripple Star, Sugar is an utterly unremarkable example of her kind, living in relative bliss as some sort of artist and candy gather, as that sort of thing seems to grow naturally on the surface of the sugarbowl planet. Fae aren't known for having great attention spans, and one day, something caught her eye, causing the fairy to wander away from her daily routine and eventually land on the surface of the yellow-pointed planet. Will she make it home, or will the perilous natives sacrifice her as part of their macabre rituals?

"This is weird. The bed was nice and soft, though. I wonder where I am.
Check my room for anything of interest before going and knocking on the door next to my room.

[Lyeos]

"200is, huh?" Jyak briefly wondered what he might be able to purchase with 200is. Then he walked over to the chest and retrieved his belongings, before leaving the room.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

((By the way, the is is pronounced as though it were an acronym,as in eye-s.

[Propman]

Popstar? Though it was only a faint glint of memory, that was all that she needed to be reminded of the fact that she was stranded on a planet far, far away from her home. The thought suddenly caused Sugar's heart to race, requiring her to take a deep breath in order to prevent a panic attack from occurring. The fairy refocused her attention to her immediate surroundings, putting off the thoughts of being stranded for the time being.

A closer look at the room revealed it to be a rather austere compartment in design, the slightly domed white stucco walls and floor composed of non-nondescript wooden boards making it seem somewhat confining, as if it was ready to close in on her at any moment. A small chest lay sitting next to the bed, unlocked and perhaps containing something useful. A few minutes of thinking led to the deduction that she was inside an inn of some description (in spite of the fact that she didn't remember actually going inside of one), with the room presumably being her own, along with whatever was in the chest.

>Open the chest up and gather whatever might be inside of it, and then proceed to move out of the room. No use in overstaying.

Bah. Cowards. No one had wanted a fight.

Hang around in the seedy parts of town. Look for targets to either fight or rob.
