Turn 12
Here comes Bert the Explorer
You... do... stuff, I guess. Then you see a flash of blue light coming from the hallway. Yep, you're not going there. Are you?
"Hey, you!" Hregar says, continuing to point at Bert. "Where'd you come from?"
You keep glaring and pointing at Bert, who somewhat retardedly keeps looking around, and say your words.
[POT:2,4,1,6,3,5=3 = DC:3]
You feel the air moving beginning to move towards Bert, then suddenly turning to move into one of the lava pools. Then you see a sudden flash of light coming from the hallway. Yeah, not going there.
Guess I needed either 1) some sort of life word 2) a higher pot score to make it able to bite people. Oh well; it's still pretty sweet.
Grab that mace and do some <3magic<3science<3
You pick up the mace and continue experimentation! ((It's the first one.))
[POT:6=2 < DC:3]
Nothing happens.
[POT:6=2 = DC:2]
A burst of air radiates from you. Felt like it moved along the ground.
[POT:3=0 < DC:3]
Nothing happens.
[POT:6=2 = DC:2]
This time air seems to move in a way mimicking rain, somehow.
[POT:1=-1 << DC:1]
Nothing this time.
[POT:4=1 = DC:1]
An ethereal bow appears for a moment.
[POT:6=2 < DC:3]
Nothing.
[POT:4=1 = DC:1]
Some ghostly arrows appear in the air for a few seconds.
[POT:6=2 > DC:1. POT:4=1. Total: 3vs1]
An image of a large pair of tongs appear for a while. Suddenly, you see a flash of blue light from the Grand Hall. You think it would be pretty smart to never approach that place.
Oh, did I not...?Wooooo.
!!!!!!!!!!!?
Fight for my life. Take the halberd, avenge my eyes, take the guys ones.
Real!Derm begins to cast his spells.
[POT:1=-1 << DC:9]
Suddenly an insanely bright blue light blinds everyone in the Grand Hall, along with a small heat wave hitting them.
[Real!Derm END:1+
1=2]
[Fake!Derm END:6]
[Simon END:3+
1=4]
[Beirus END:1+
2=3]
Real!Derm drops dead instantly and is quickly followed by Beirus. A few seconds later Simon succumbs as well. Fake!Derm is still alive but he feels really, really sick. There might be a way to save himself, but is there enough time to do so?
Fake!Derm - [

Here as well.
[POT:5=1 < DC:3]
Yeah, here too.
[POT:6,3=2 > DC:-5. No need for re-roll]
A mark appears on your hand. Looks like a hangman. It disappears after a moment.
[POT:6,6=4 = DC:4]
Another mark appears on your hand. Looks like a circle, inside of which is a dot. It quickly fades away.
[POT:5,3=1 < DC:3]
Nothing on this one.
[POT:3,4=1 < DC:2]
And this one.
Stuffed Steffen appears in the Pit!Gigas appears in the Forest Area! Along with Beirus, who somehow evaded death.
