Turn 10: Actually Effective AttacksINIT:
Glass/Ash Hong(43)
DoctorMcTaalik/DrM(98)
OceanSoul/Blue(62)
Yottawhat/Curtis(95)
Mallos/Ckaeyod(12-20=-8)
NAV/Dave Blade(51)
DrM was the first to act, taking advantage of the situation.
"Excellent work, J.R.!"
Cock the revolver, take aim, and fire again.
Blam!(5) vs. Dodge!(4-2=2)
For once, the bullet actually hit its target.
Damage!(6) vs. Endurance!(5)
The shot to the forehead seemed to only leave a massive pain instead of brain guts flying everywhere for some reason, though. On the other hand...
Willpower!(6-2=4)
Ckaeyod felt something come over him, but shook it off.
Shortly after the gunshot,
Curtis got tired of diplomacy.
Just punch Blue in the face.
Fist!(5) vs. Dodge!(3)
Strength!(5) vs. Resist!(2)
Curtis reared his fist back and punched Blue in the face. For once, it actually worked. Blue was sent flying against the pit wall, still conscious, if barely.
Blue promptly responded to the impact.
Sneak attack the nearest person, in the back! Creep up on them slowly, so my injury doesn't bother me.
In a delirious manner, he decided to try sneak attacking the man who was looking at him.
Realizing this, he instead opted for a slow frontal assault.
Stab!(4-1=3) vs. Block!(3)
The knife strike struck Curtis' shield.
Dave Blade was next to act.
Walk up to that hole with the two people fighting in it. Look down at them and breath a long stream of fire right at them. Then, if either still pose any sort of threat smash the bottle onto their heads, hoping to break it in such a way to form an effective stabbing weapon.
Dave Blade focused for a moment...
Affinity!(2)
Slammed his mind into the mental stickiness... and made no progress. His plan would have to wait.
Ash Hong, meanwhile, was dealing with his injury.
Rip off a strip of my clothing and tie it around the gnash like a bandage.
Improv Medicine!(1)
Ash Hong ripped off a strip of his clothing... wait, that wasn't cloth. Ash Hong realized in his haste he accidentally ripped off a bunch of skin! ((Such is RTD.))
Ckaeyod, finally, decided he needed to do something about the dinosaur tangling him up.
Slash this stupid fucking dinosaur up. Fuck it. If I can't or whatever, try to use it as shield for attacks.
Slashy Slashy!(4-1=3)
The fact that the dinosaur was tangled with him meant it got no chance to resist as Ckaeyod struck it with his knife.
Slashy Slashy 2!(2-1=1) vs. Resist!(3)
The blade struck a chunk of tough leather, and had no effect, unfortunately.
