((Because I got a bit too used to you doing the same thing over and over. Fixed. You didin't get to live, but you did get to deprive Chorkinaan from getting 5 shards.))

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

PM's are being processed.

 Star2Wars3/Skeliborn your turn is not there because it depends quite a bit on what Gambler does, and there is no post as of yet. I'll wait a day, and if I get no action from XXXXYYYY I'll just add your action to the turn.
((Again, quite sorry. Life has been hellishly busy lately.))
If someone else is casting a spell to retrieve the Eternity (_s_ removing the distance, etc), increase the probability of success.
Else, do the following spell:
Using the Eternity as a power source, invert the probability of the Eternity suddenly teleporting directly next to my location.

((Inverting, in this case, refers to subtracting the probability from 1. Thus, .1 would become .9, .00001 would become .99999, and .4 would become .6.))

((gg indeed))


Chorkinaan looked down at Henry, who had lost too much blood to be able to stand and was slowly losing his grip on reality. Triumphantly, Chorkinaan finished his monologue. It takes the insanity to attempt the impossible, the sanity to keep your goal in sight, the strategy to overcome the obstacles in the way, and the luck to reach the end. That can't last forever, Henry, and just like that the throne of the best is lost. Good night, bitter ex-prince, and may flights of angels put a damper on your overwhelming ego. Chorkinaan collects Henry's soul shards and condenses 3 essences. Here's hoping I don't have to manually bind the wound. I can't imagine a way to do that without a lot of stinging happening as cloth rubs against exposed flesh.

The sword was beyond massive. Beyond colossal. At this point, it could only be described as... Absurdly Huge.
Wayfarer sighed. He was hoping for something actually usable. Then again, courtesy of the modifications he made to the sword, the possibility of wielding it was just barely out of reach. Only barely out of reach, as opposed to impossibly far out of reach.
If he was just a bit stronger... or the sword was just a little lighter...
Wayfarer decided that he was going to work towards a pair of strength boosting gauntlets.
Never mind the sheer impracticality of using the weapon, regardless of whether or not it was possible.

Wayfarer created(-1 or 0) another chunk of solid force, then made 3 solid force essences.

Create a cursed grenade. It, like, explodes into a curse or something.

also +2 essences

running out of ideas at this point

edit: ideas that don't require rituals/billions of essences

((Fights need to resolve faster. This is distracting me from my long term plan.))

Wait it out. Either the beast goes away or it tries to eat me at which point I try to impale it from inside by extending the various spikes on me. Should the latter scenario come to reality, apply +1/+1 essence to the spell.

{You can actually swing the sword, it's just that:
1)It's larger than you, so you can't realy do anything more complex than a simple slash and
2)It's so large that anything you do will be seen from a mile away.
Probably should had worded the turn better.}

Skeliborn:

Action:

Go back to where the Gambler was. (where this new meteor landed)

summon a flaming sword and light the lake on fire with it.

If someone else is casting a spell to retrieve the Eternity (_s_ removing the distance, etc), increase the probability of success.
Else, do the following spell:
Using the Eternity as a power source, invert the probability of the Eternity suddenly teleporting directly next to my location.


Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Gambler wondered for a moment, whether or not he wanted Eternity more than he wanted to not fight whatever was in the lake. A decision was reached when he spared a thought on what would happen if the lake creature got its tentacles on eternity and Gambler wove a spell. Eternity that was wrapped in tentacles in the middle of the lake shimmered and disappeared, the bulk of it appearing next to gambler while some bits and pieces crumbled into the lake. Skeliborn soon arrived, blazing toothpick in hand, and plunged it into the orange liquid. It bubbled as flames heated it, but the effect was soon outdone by the bubbling where pieces of Eternity had fallen. Several minor beholders rose from the water, their eyestalks still mere tentacles and their main eye mostly unmagical, but instead of teeth they had spikes of something glowing green. The five of them flew swiftly over the lake towards Gambler.

Use another locating spell to find the branch. I promised I wouldn't abandon it.

2 summoning essences.

{He did, but as to make killing strong players more rewarding, extra affinities and stats give extra soul shards. In this case, his extra afinity gave you extra five shards.}

Seems you like you're in need of assistance Gambler. Need a hand? And no, I'm not cutting off my hand.

Skeliborn:

Action:

Attack the mobs that are attacking the Gambler using Vortex bane.
