Now that I'm geared up, it's time for round two. Back through the West Gate. Use my suit's tracking and my vision to find the robed person that cut my face, then use my gladius along with the assisted targeting to kill that person.
Heading through the west gate, Tobias steps into the familiar chamber from before- but this time, he sees Larry in the center covered head-to-toe in welps and blisters as if he's been partially burnt. Searching for the source, he finds a figure quite similar to the one who attacked him standing on a large glass pillar in the back of the chamber. She holds a dagger in her left hand, and Tobias figures from the fact that she is armed and Larry is burnt that this is the enemy from before. [1]Charging at her while locking on, he swings the massive energy gladius in the direction of the pillar she stands on. "It's no use, summoner, I see everything you are about to do before it even happens!" she hops up and deftly lands on his mech's arm as the gladius passes through the pillar. [5+2]"Burn!!!" She holds out an open palm and [1]Tobias is blinded and burnt from a burst of purple light- and judging from the pain he feels, it may be permanent. [3]Luckily for him, she loses her balance and falls off the mech's arm as Tobias flips out in shock and surprise. Landing on her feet next to Larry, she gets her balance back together and seems ready to strike.
Vibrates with skeletal annoyance.
Rolls dice: 1

ENOUGH OF THIS! Manipulate probability! My next roll will be on a d20!
[4+1]Mr Bones feels accomplished, but somehow can tell that a d20 has not been rolled. Probability manipulation only goes so far, after all, and universal constants can't be easily shattered.
[4]Mr Bones detects some sort of malicious intent emitting from the threads that hold the laws of probability together, but somehow evades it and is overwhelmed by a humbling power that tells him he shouldn't try that again.
Larry screams for a moment, then yells an order...
"GO FOR THE EYES BIRDY"
before casting fog of death from his own life in an attempt to block out the light.
Larry uncovers his eyes that managed to evade damage and [3+1] casts a fog of death, using his own life as the source of power. He feels a bit dizzy as black smoke rushes from his mouth and envelops a significant portion of the chamber, sickening everyone within it but himself. It probably won't last very long, but it will definitely dilute the light-based attacks of Prismata. Following his invoker's orders, the spirit crow [1]flys at top speed toward's what it thought was Prismata, but turned out to be Tobias. It's beak lodges itself in Tobias's left eye and blood gushes forth. Great job, bird-brain.
[4]Prismata sustains more damage to her powerful soul from the fog of death, and feels so sickened that she almost vomits. She'll have trouble aiming her next attack, and forfeits this turn of battle.
Taking a few steps back as Mr. Bones messes with the fabric of reality, Trier tries to make a crystal longsword. If that works then he'll go back with Tobias into the gate.
Trier evades the wave of discomfort Mr Bones conjures up with his failed attempts at fucking with the fabric of reality by stepping back a foot or so.
He then [5+1]fashions a seed crystal into a jagged longsword. It looks sharp enough to easily sever limbs, so Trier steps through the portal.
'What in the hell?' is probably the first thought that crosses Triers mind as he enters into a smokey black chamber. He can hardly see a foot ahead of himself, but does his best to navigate the crystalline cave, sword and shield wielded. [1]He's completely lost, though, and even the screams of what sounds like Tobias' voice can't quite guide him through. He trips over something, and falls face-first onto the ground and shatters part of the glass below on impact. Luckily for Trier, his unusual body structure makes him all but immune to the shards that would stick through a fleshier thing's well... flesh.
Merunidae, through the danger, continues her search. She decides that she will play the song of undeath as she walks, trying to raise whatever may be hiding her to do her bidding. Hopefully this place hasn't been cleaned up too well.
Should she encounter another monster, she will instead change her song to one of control, making whatever minotaur she finds hers to control.
[2]Menuridae seems to be shit out of luck, looking for any scrap of formerly living creatures but finding absolutely nothing. Deciding a decrepit 'HARMONY CITY HOSPITAL' has the highest probability of having something dead in it, she enters through the shattered glass doors and [5]is overwhelmed by the stench of death. Something
is dead in here, and perhaps she will find it if she keeps lucking.
Take a quick look for sturdy sticks or some such material to make an Ruth i out of until the would fully heals/ a replacement is found.
((Assuming you were intending to make a prosthetic of sorts. Also, please spoiler your action next time as you are currently away from the Hub.))
[3+1]Arcodo rummages around, hopping and luckily maintaining his balance. In the pile of ashes that was once a demented enemy before being mostly vaporized by Crimson's elemental, he finds two fragments of bone. PIcking them up, he decides that the sticky slime will do good as some form of adhesive and cements the two fragment together. He then places the smallish bone contraption under the stump of his ankle, and uses the slime once more to adhere it to the papery stub. It should do for now, but his walking is slower than before as he hobbles and trudges.
Crimson, once Arcodo's up n' movin', could you two follow me?"
Advance toward the Cathedral, but only go so far as the entrance. Look inside.
Y4R stomps his way down the hill and advances for the stairs in front of the cathedral, shouting to his friends on the apex of the hill as he enters the slime.
Climbing up the stairs, he feels a creeping discomfort in the back of his mind. Whatever's in this Cathedral isn't natural in the slightest. The pirate automaton reaches the entrance, and reluctantly pushes the stone door open enough to peek inside. He sees that inside the structure is more illuminated than any other part of the realm thus far. An aisle between rows of toppled pews leads to an altar of sorts, where a shattered stained glass window reveals the massive green moon outside. On either sides of the aisle, tiny candles burn just enough to illuminate most of the cathedral's main chamber. On the altar is a moon-lit silhouette, humming while fidgeting with something. Y4R will have to get closer to tell just who or what it is, but feels as though he shouldn't until his buddies catch up.
"Be careful. Whoever is controlling those guys just now is clearly inside."
Help Arcodo find something for him to be able to stand up on his own. If nothing can be found though, then try to find materials I can use and try to fashion a new artificial leg or something similar to help him. Keep the elemental on guard in case of any enemies.
Sorry Mallos, thought I already posted my turn.
((It's fine. Just make sure that it is next time
))
Seeing that Arcodo has done fine on his own, the two decide to regroup with Y4R who is peeking into the Cathedral's entrance. Crimson makes sure his fiery sentinel is on guard and commands it to watch over Y4R until Arcodo and himself meet up with their pirate companion. A few minutes of walking(and hobbling on Arcodo's half) later, and they are right behind Y4R and the elemental. Crimson and Arcodo are poised to enter, and Y4R-M8 is peering through the door. Maybe he'll tell them what he's seeing so that they can decide what to do?
