Turn 22
Ooh, yay, I'm in!
Look around and be confused. Then, say several words.
Great, a forest full of dead trees. Where the hell is this? Might as well try to read this book.
[POT:6=2 > DC:1. POT:3=0]
The air in front of you seems to form something and then quickly moves forwards.
[POT:2=0 < DC:1]
Nothing happens this time though.
[POT:5=1 = DC:1]
Feels like the air is moving towards where you are facing, along the ground.
[POT:6=2 > DC:1. POT:2=0]
The air forms something and appears to move forwards and up.
[POT:3=0 < DC:2]
And then nothing happens.
[POT:4=1 < DC:2]
Again.
[POT:2=0 < DC:4]
And again.
[POT:4=1 < DC:2]
Yeah, this magic thing isn't working for some reason now.
[POT:6=2 = DC:2]
A small distance forwards from you the earth cracks. You feel a weak gust of air hitting you from that direction.
[POT:1=-1 << DC:2]
Nothing this time.
"I AM HUNGRY. HOW DO I MEAT. OH LOOK WORDS ALSO CAPSLOCK."
"Meh. EELIW. MUAHAHAHAHA. ADBO. Is this thing on?"
I note that there's a guy near the front.
"HEY THERE GUY I AM HUNGRY LET'S BE FRIENDS AND MURDER PEOPLE TOGETHER."
"Eh. Working together means I'd have to share my words with you, and I don't trust you. And I need Potency, this damned book requires a million of it to do anything. I'll let you go first, though."
Let him go first, unless he tries to leave the cavern. Then attack!
E Ohtyr speaks some random words.
[Random POT assignment:3]
[POT:6,5,6=5 > DC:-2. No re-rolls needed]
He momentarily feels as if he was broken, literally.
[POT:2,1=-1 << DC:2]
Nothing happens.
Hregar, seeing as how the other guy finished his spell casting endeavors, moves to attack.
[Hregar POT:6,5,5,4,5,6=8 > DC:2. POT:2,4,2,5,5,3=3. 11vs2]
[Hregar DEX:5+
1=6]
[E Ohtyr Anus SPD:3]
He runs up to his victim and speaks the words of power, creating a large burst of flame which engulfs E Ohtyr.
The flames severely burn his torso and head, along with causing a few minor burns on his hands.
E Ohtyr Anus: Torso -
[Heavy burned], Head -
[Burned], Both hands -
[Minor burns].
Aww, you started the murder party without me.
((Damnit (fake) Derm! That was kill!))
"That was my soul! Well... I'll get it back after I deal with the other one!" Gigas turns to grin evilly at the person who attempted to impale him.
Sending PM of the one person's demise who's named I'm too bothered with looking up or remembering.

MAGic!
The battle continues!

[Fake!Derm SPD:5+

Fake!Derm moves first - taking aim at Werty, while saying the arcane words.
[Fake!Derm POT:1,1,1,1,1,5,4,3,3,4=-2 << DC:5]
[Fake!Derm SPD:4+
1=5]
He drops to the ground by instinct, as a few razor-sharp crystals are fired at him from his left side.
Gigas is the next one to move. He moves behind the glass spike, positioning himself so it is between him and Werty and fires off a spell.
[Gigas POT:6,6,6,5,6,1=8 > DC:4. POT:6,5,4,1,3,4=4. 12vs4]
A powerful blast of force breaks the glass, sending deadly shrapnel at Gigas's opponent!
[Werty SPD:4-

Werty doesn't even have a chance to move as the glass shrapnel rips into him, cutting his body to shreds. His lifeless body falls to the ground, staining the floor with torrents of blood.
Werty is dead!The cadaver transforms into a white mist that enters Gigas, who immediately feels empowered.
Beirus finally gets onto the platform, just in time to notice that he missed the party. God damn it.
Maybe he should make another murder party?
Try the same word combo again, continue heading to the Grand Room.
Do I need to PM you again?
You walk to the Grand Hall while recasting your spell.
[POT:1,5,6,6,4,6,5,2,3,5=8 > DC:7. POT:1,5,5,1,1,6,5,2,6=4. 12vs7]
You summon a large revolver. It appears to be decorated with cog-related motifs.
You walk through the bridge and arrive just in time to see a man get cut in pieces by a large amount of glass. There are also 2 people made out of metal. One of them has a blade instead of an arm.
Maybe coming here wasn't such a great idea.
Horus appears in The Pit!
