I like the little turn narrations. Darkest Dungeon indeed!


Blocking and dancing both sound really good right now.

1. Move S
2. Block
3. Dodge Roll N
4. Dodge Roll
5. Active Block (Idol, Light)

[OceanSoul]

1. Move N
2. Use 9 Souls on Dancing Blossoms, 5 Power Within, attack (10,11) with Heaven's Garden.
3+4. Heaven's Garden Cooldown.
5. Charge Power Within.

[Draignean]

1. Move N
2. Use 9 Souls on Dancing Blossoms, 5 Power Within, attack (10,11) with Heaven's Garden.
3+4. Heaven's Garden Cooldown.
5. Charge Power Within.

Dancing Blossoms is already off cooldown. Remember the measurements are in frames, not rounds.

[OceanSoul]

In that case, only difference is 8 Power Within instead of 5.

[Criptfeind]

Given that Shorns movement means I won't be hitting him, I'll reinstate my previous action.

A valiant effort, but the creature bats the explosive away a moment before impact. The stick detonates in the air, the sudden shock staggering the creature back if nothing else.

Felled

A pillar of steel blossoms strikes from heaven, momentarily engulfing the creature in glowing cherry petals. When the wisps clear, the beast is on its knees, falling to pieces. The leather binding it together is all but cut away, and bits of wood patter to the ground as it sinks further- barely propping itself up on its scythes. A mighty blow indeed to bring this idol to heel so easily...

Premature Round End

A sudden wind, of fetid odor and chill disposition quite apart from the breeze that moved the grass a moment again, blows inward toward the creature. A churning tremble passes through soil as though the very earth itself is trying to crawl towards the broken effigy. Dark, sticky strands begin to seep upwards from the soil and into the Effigy's splintered wood. A thousand tiny pieces of splintered bone jump up from the ground, clinging to the creature like iron filings to a lodestone.

The blood and bone of countless sacrifices writhes upwards from the earth, covering the idol in a layer of blasphemous flesh. Its scythes, formerly broken, grow blades made from rippling layers of blood.  Its eyes, formerly nothing but black pits, glow with a hellish light.

The creature stands once more, not simply made whole, but infused with new energy.

A God is not easily dispatched, even with weapons of divine or chemical nature. You faced a hollow, sleepy thing- the echo pf a forgotten harvest deity. You've succeeded in waking a slumbering God, you've succeeded in proving that you're a threat to it. A heroic show of force, and also a very foolish one.

No one worships a weak God.

The Idol slams its scythes into the ground at its feet, burying their blades in the soil. A moment later a wave of dark fluid erupts from the soil- immediately freezing into an onrushing cloud of black snow. Shorn gets his shield up in time, absorbing the blast of frozen blood, but Nhin isn't so lucky. The wave surrounds her, cutting through her thin robes with lacerating snowflakes and chilling her to the bone.

Is winter not a curious thing? Once, before the corruption, those of the great cities made it a time of coziness, of warm fires and thick walls that kept the cold at bay and bound people together. For them, it was a time of picturesque beauty and self-reflection. They learned to fear its jaws, but it took them so long.

One can only hope you'll learn more swiftly.
