Groo casually leans over and lifts Varion onto his shoulders in a fireman's carry. Then he turns back to the spooks, with a smile on his face, and asks a question:
"Where Groo go?"
Well? Where Groo go?
[Strength 3] Varion is a heavier than he looks and Groo just can't get a good enough grip to lift him up. Eventually abandoning that plan, Groo's duo of brain cells muster their effort to speak, and say
"Where Groo go?" to the spooks. Both spooks look stunned for a moment by the fact that Groo actually spoke and almost a formed a complete sentence, before the gun wielding one recovers and says
"Mr, uh, Groo, you all will be leaving very shortly, in fact as soon as your two daemonists stop staring at my partners knife, There is a loud thwack followed by a thump of someone's head hitting the table, the gun wielding agent glances at the scene to his left and says
" actually when you all manage to pull your buddy's hand free from that knife, then you all will be given the briefcase and sent on the mission."((These spooks seem to have fairly high intelligence...))
"...huh...I didn't...do you have anymore items imbued that you would be willing to share about? What happens when someone is cut with that?"
Study the ritual and deamon. Learn. Don't get killed. Let's do this! Yeah! Hopefully half of us won't get killed like the test mission!
[Charisma 1] [intelligence 6] Apperntlly incised at your further questioning, the silent spook wordlessly cocks his arm back and [daemonism: 1+4=5] hurls the knife which with an earsplitting screech embeds itself in your hand [no dex roll because of the five and the daemon infused knife] [resilience 1] and goes clean through your hand severing the tendons in it, and embeds itself in the table as well thus sticking your hand to the table, [resilience roll for pain 1] you immediately pass out from pain.
"Neat! You have any tips for imbuing daemons into things? You ever try imbuing one into one of those endo exosuits? You think you could share some of your knowledge with me if we make it through this? Please?"
I have a few more questions. But I'll stop asking them if the Spook doesn't feel like answering me. Also study the pictograms of the ritual and daemon.
Something tells you that you should probably stop asking questions right now. It's probably the dude with Daemon knife in his hand whose passed out from pain and is now lying on the table. Regardless you quickly look over the pictogram ritual. [+1 to doing that particular ritual with that particular frequency of daemon]
Varion attempts to regain conciseness [resilience: 3] He's still out for the count although he doesn't seem to be any worse for wear from that massive concussion he suffered.
Ohe spends the turn getting his breath back and tries thinking of new and creative words to use to insult Varion. [Intelligence 2] well he would except he can't think of any, clearly his creativity needs an infusion of shrooms to really think of something.
((So, quick question do you guys want 2 resilience rolls for wounds, one for determining how bad it is and the other for pain? Or just one that governs both?))
