Same one pot each
Now that you think about it, this place is great for SCIENCE! now that the two other guys that were here left, one of them chasing the other while yelling something.
[POT:1=-1 vs DC:2. Failure.]
Nothing.
[POT:5=1 vs DC:1. Success.]
You summon a small pile of sand.
[POT:6=2 vs DC:2. Success.]
You get a few metal rods. You try picking one up, and it's surprisingly light for a metal.
[POT:6=2 vs DC:2. Success.]
Some planks drop to the ground.
[POT:6=2 vs DC:1. Re-rolling dice. POT:3=0. Total: 2vs1]
A puddle of water appears near your feet.
[POT:6=2 vs DC:3. Fizzle.]
After so much success, you obviously had to fail.
[POT:2=0 vs DC:1. Fizzle.]
Twice.
[POT:1=-1 vs DC:1. Failure]
Thrice, even.
[POT:2=0 vs DC:1. Fizzle.]
Quadfail.
[POT:5=1 vs DC:1. Success.]
Some dirt falls into the puddle. A puddle of some kind of liquid appears in front of you. You have a weird urge to taste it.
[POT:5=1 vs DC:1. Success.]
A puddle of some kind of liquid appears in front of you. You have a weird urge to taste it. You summon a small pile of stones.
[POT:4=1 vs DC:2. Fizzle.]
Stop! Failuretime!
[POT:4=1 vs DC:2. Fizzle.]
'nother fail.
[POT:3=0 vs DC:3. Fizzle.]
You fail once more.
[POT:2=0 vs DC:1. Fizzle.]
And to finish your SCIENCE!ing for now, you fail.
It's the New Age rules PW put out.
"Huh... interesting."
Continue the Science!
You continue your experimentation on the poor trees.
[POT:2,4,5,3,6=4 vs DC:3. Re-rolling dice. POT:1,3,6,4,3=2 additional successes. Total: 6vs3]
A strong gust of wind smashes into the tree you were facing towards, breaking off the dead branches and slightly bending it. This might come in handy later on.
[POT:1,4,5,5=2 vs DC:6. All words dropped. Fizzle.]
You attempt a second spell, but nothing happens.
Nothing happens.
"Good thing I'm righthanded."
Stuff my left hand into my right armpit, glare at Beirus and say words.
Let's try something else.
Meanwhile, Hregar and Beirus keep passively-aggressively trying to experiment on each other.
[Hregar POT:4,5,1,6,4,5=5 vs DC:4. Re-rolling dice. POT:2,6,5,4,1,4=4 additional successes. Total: 9vs4]
You summon a large pile of golden sand.
[Beirus POT:1,6,1,3,5,3=1 vs DC:6. All words dropped. Fizzle.]
Nothing happens. Oh well. You go through the hallway and enter a large, circular room. There are stairs to the left and another exit to the right. You see two identical individuals, one of them sprinting away to the eastern exit.
This system...
Pencil Peroxide
Real!Derm continues to work on his SCIENCE!, while Fake!Derm sprints off into the eastern hallway, casting spells.
[Real!Derm POT:3,5,4=2 vs DC:2. Success.]
You summon a pulsating lump of flesh. Ew.
[Real!Derm POT:1,4,4=1 vs DC:2. Fizzle.]
Nothing appears.
[Fake!Derm POT:4,4,2,5=3 vs DC:4. Fizzle]
Nothing.
[Fake!Derm POT:2,2,5=1 vs DC:1. Success.]
A transparent belt appears in the air and quickly fades out of existence.
[Fake!Derm POT:3,6,3=2 vs DC:5. Fizzle.]
Nothing appears again. On a plus side, you exit the hallway and enter a forest. The trees around here are dead and there is no grass to be found.
Whisper "Well that was anticlimactic... Might be useful though."
Pickup a fistful of sulfur and put it into a pocket.
Shout "Hey, hey lets not fool around with this 'potent' magic mate! Lets be friends. Or something."
Let him eat the bait and use WORDS against him if I'm fast enough, if not find a new target. Then run away west.
Run away and try to hide.
Stanislauss decides not to fuck with the crazy teen and gets up the ladder, then promptly dashes the fuck off. Said crazy teen doesn't want to lose his test subject and runs after him after grabbing a handful of the yellow dust.
[Stanislauss SPD:5]
[Simon SPD:3+
1]
Simon cannot keep up with Stanislauss though, and gives up after climbing the ladder. He does find a new target though - there's some guy near the pit.
Stanislauss finds himself on a narrow bridge. It appears the guy chasing him gave up. Looking down, he's reminded of the giant hole back there. A false step here could mean falling for eternity. He does see a light some distance in front of him.
Both start work on their SCIENCE!
[Simon POT:5,1,3=0 vs DC:2. Fizzle]
Nothing happens.
[Simon POT:1,3,1=-2 vs DC:2. Failure.]
Nothing happens again? Apparently not, as you feel something smashing into your back.
[Simon END:6+
1]
You are completely unfazed by this and look behind you. There's some sulfur on the ground and on your back. Huh.
[Stanislauss POT:2,6,2,2,1,1=0 vs DC:4. Failure]
Your spell, surprisingly, fizzles. Even though you channeled so much power into it.
