Terence's mind raced. This was a stronger opponent than he had planned on fighting, and it had a bludgeoning weapon. Terence could not afford to have his bones broken; he was nothing BUT bones. Then, an idea arrived. Terence crossed his arms and began to boast, but this was just a clever disguise.

You foolish, reckless churl. You dare to challenge one such as myself?

Monologue with crossed arms until the undead winds up to strike, then pop the trap. Disconnect one arm at the base and hold it in the opposite hand, then extend both arms straight, striking with an extended reach at their weapon hand in an attempt to force them to drop their weapon, all in one motion. If successful, attempt to recover the weapon with my new extendo grip. Otherwise, continue with the extendo grip strategy, but dodge for now.

Oh wait, that weapon was just a sheathed sword. What was this guy thinking? Terence came to assume that his opponent was not as smart as they wished for people to know.

((Hey Nakeen, what does my character sheet look like now? I'm trying to figure out where I should put points.))

Enjoy.

Spoiler: Gray the Metalslinger (click to show/hide)

Name: Gray
Species: Metalslinger
Appearance: A shiny metal humanoid with what looks like a shifting duster covering it. And that hat Gray got a while back.
Attributes:
HP 20
MP 14
ESSENCE 4/10
STR 1
CON 2
POW -1
RES 1
INT -1
IND 0

Traits :
Morphous- Gray can now take on and hold forms, even though his body retains its liquid-like appearance and consistency.
Dispersed Conciousness: Gray's conciousness is spread through every molecule of his body, allowing him to control parts of himself separated from his main body and reabsorb them through physical contact. Each division splits his HP between the main body and the separated part.

Skills :
Harden- Solidifies the body in whatever shape it is currently in, increasing durability.
Engulf- Engulfs all or a portion of the target, restricting it's movements and quickly digesting it
Metal Barrage: Gray fires off soft or hardened pieces of himself at an opponent. The soft shots stick to the surface they contact, while the hardened shots pierce into or though the target. Uses HP instead of MP, each shot/blob has the amount of HP used to power it. If the blob is destroyed, the HP is lost.

Also, I keep this doc pretty up to date, player characters are on the second list

((Alright, transformation time. Hopefully that stone turns out to be useful somehow.))

Transformation time. Continue recovering.

Spoiler: Transformation (click to show/hide)

Species : Prismetal Blaster
Appearance : Grey has the same form, but his body is now more defined and made up of an odd metal. It seems to shift between a glowing fire red, a shining crystal blue, a radiant white, a jet black, and a gray stone color, or a strange, uniformly blended combination that is hard to describe, depending on the angle that he is viewed at.
HP or MP increase : HP
Attributes increased : 2x POW
Traits gained : Prismetal Unity: The elemental energies inside Gray are as much a part of his makeup as his molecules. When attacking with these elements, combine his STR and POW. When defending against attacks of these elements, combine CON and RES.
Skills gained : Elemental shift: Gray can shift his body to different forms based on his inner elements. The Solar form uses fire and light and allows him to move faster and heal in sunlight, while also burning foes in contact with him. The Void form uses ice and shadow, leeching energy from nearby foes to slow them and eventually freeze them, and allows him to move silently and heal in darkness. The Magma form combines earth and fire, burning foes in contact with him and making him much more durable. The Glacier form combines earth and ice, slowing and eventually freezing enemies around him while making him much more durable. While in a form, he can only use the elements of that form.

Re-roll: Metal Barrage-> Elemetal Bombardment: While Gray can still shoot soft or hard projectiles, he can now infuse these projectiles with elemental energies depending on his form. The default Prismetal form utilizes all the energies, while the other forms can only utilize certain elements.

((Nakeen, let me know if it's too much.))

(also, did they sheathe the blade, or did it transform into a mace? My contingency plan kinda hinges on there being a sheathed blade to steal.)

((He put the sword inside its scabbard. He's still wielding the sword, but the blade is now covered by the scabbard, transforming it into an improvised blunt weapon.))

((Oh, I see. That was a bit confusing at first. You write your game your way, but to be honest, doing this to increase effectiveness vs a skeleton doesn't make much scientific sense. A good chop can still cut bone, and the scabbard barely adds any weight at all. All this really does is blunt the blade, meaning the edge can't work to more easily break bones at all. But hey, if it's just a "x damage type is Y times effective against skeletons, therefore no slashy blade" then that makes sense from a pure game mechanics standpoint, and I'm okay with that.))

[crazyabe]

(He might be Trying to Keep your Bones from Putting any nicks into his blade while he disassembles you, Which is Less then the most effective Tactic.)

[Sarrak]

((He might be relying on memories from previous life, where an old, grizzled veteran trained recruits by shouting at them "Those are moving piles of self-repairing bones, bent on murdering your lot! So use your brain, take something blunt and pummel them into the dust, you bunch of dumb goats!"))

[Hawk132]

((A Mordhau would be much better than sheathing the sword. But it doesn't have to be that accurate with the way blunt trauma is applied, it's a game after all.))

((You all have great point. And to be fair, I never liked the "skeleton resist slashing damage for some reason" bit you can see in some RPG.
But I didn't really know what kind of player you were on this side, so I tried to play it safe :/

Or maybe he is preparing some kind of secret attack ?...to bullshit my way out of this haha))

((Pretty good ! Though there is something I would like to ask, are you fine if I say you have a "core" somewhere in your body ?
There can only be one active Core at a time, and if it were to be destroyed it would be transferred to another body part capable of thought. It's mainly to prevent cases of cloning blues that I would like to add this in.))

[Beirus]

((Yeah, that's fine.))

"The last time you entered the Library was some weeks before the Day 0 of the White Catastrophe. As usual, you"

((What? What did I do? Don't just stop talking like this, man! That's rude!))

I've got one of the world's greatest libraries at my disposal here. Check if there are records on my family and where the manor from my memories may be located. Look for records about Levem as well. Ways to control the space-magic barriers here would also be useful. Finding out where places in which monster-human coexistence was a normal thing might also be an interesting thing to do. If there are any books or records that look like they might be important plot dumps/hooks, read those too.

Oh, and check what's an Exar. And maybe take a look at The Hemologist's Handbook.
