Turn 12: Burning Pit of Fire, Also, A RussianINIT:
Glass/Ash Hong(98)
DoctorMcTaalik/DrM(24)
OceanSoul/Blue(68)
Yottawhat/Curtis(32)
Mallos/Ckaeyod(96-20=76)
NAV/Dave Blade(46)
Ash Hong, the frustrated one, was first to act.
Damnit!
Fix it all! Fix all of it!
Pray to God that it's not a damned 1 again, and that it actually works properly!
Pray!(6)
As Ash Hong prayed, his prayer was answered. A purple laugh. A purple syringe, labeled "Use it or lose it."
Fix It All!(4)
For once, Ash Hong's medicine worked. A rip of clothing covered his foot, and another covered his arm.
By the time he realized he forgot his chest, he was too tired to work on it.
Ckaeyod was surprisingly the next to act.
((I don't think it's even possible for me to get much more than a 3 or 4 right now and that frustrates me.))
Cut this stupid fucking dinosaur off or something. Just try to remove it but shift myself to use it as a shield if I think something is going to hit me.
Strength!(1)
Ckaeyod attempted to rise to his feet, but the dinosaur weighed him down. Shoot. It was a bit awkward, but he could still try at cutting it off...
Cut it out!(6-1-1=4)
Several strikes of the knife weren't enough to get the tangles completely out, but they ensured that next time would go much better. On the other hand, Ckaeyod was still lying down.
Blue was next to stir.
I know I was knocked unconscious this turn, but could I at least have been able to roll to wake up when my action came around?
Wake up, attack guy with flaming shield if able.
Wakey Wakey!(1-2=-1)
Only Null's mercy prevented Blue from sinking even deeper into unconsciousness. Mercy wouldn't last forever, however...
Dave Blade was next to act.
Another blast of fire, then backstep and try to use my second unknown ability.
If this fails I'll assume the second ability is getting headaches.
Burn!(6)
Dave Blade puffed out his mouth, then let out a massive gout of flame. There would be no dodging it, though it might be possible to mitigate it if one happened to have a shield.
Burning Man!(2-1-1=0)
Dave Blade Crit!(3)
Blue didn't take the flames well. Blue knew he wouldn't last much longer, given he was currently on fire and basically baking alive.
Burned Awake?!(3-1=2)
The flames could have broken Blue out of unconsciousness, willpower or no, but there was only so much Blue could take.
Block That!(3)
Maybe Curtis' blocking would have sufficed to partially protect against a lesser gout of flame.
Burning Man Take Two!(2)
Curtis promptly caught aflame. If he didn't put it out soon, he would... not die, but be in for a world of hurt.
Affinity!(6)
Dave Blade stepped back and used his second ability... suddenly vigor and speed came into his muscles, and he started running away.
Stop! Stop!(4)
Thankfully Dave Blade was able to keep his second ability in order, simply taking advantage of it in order to get to cover.
Dave Blade noticed he was coughing up smoke from a bit too much flame. Bah.
Curtis was next to act.
Using my shield, excavate the ground underneath Dave blade then quickly throw it away.
Sadly, the excavating of ground would have to wait, given Dave Blade vanished in a burst of speed. The throwing away the shield was more doable.
Throw!(1)
Curtis realized throwing the shield straight up was a bad idea when it came down on his head.
Dodge!(2)
And hurt.
Resist Damage!(2)
And hurt a lot.
Box Resistance!(6)
At least his box of knives wasn't on fire.
Finally,
DrM took offensive action against Ckaeyod.
Stomp on Ckaeyod's head. Feel slightly bad about it.
Secret Mario Art!(6) vs. Roll!(5-1(dinosaur)-1(headache)-1(prone)=2)
Stomp!(2) vs. Resist!(3)
The mario stomp DrM attempted to inflict was blocked by the dinosaur, which DrM felt slightly bad about.
~~~
Finally, Blue baked away, dead. The flames consumed his corpse until there was nothing left.
Well, the knives survived. The strong metal survived the fire.
((I realized that there was basically no chance of you doing anything next turn, even if you were still alive, so I took the liberty of having the fire finish you off. I mean, you would have had to wake up through the willpower penalties and the new one from the fire, then you would have to roll to actually do anything through the pain... and there would be basically nothing you could do to survive... stopping, dropping and rolling? Maybe, but odds are Dave would flame you again, or Curtis would finish you off... basically, I'm fairly sure you're dead and I wanted to speed the game along.))
The magical floating scroll continued orbiting the center circle, within a dash of DrM and Dave Blade.~~~
A hole opened in the world, and
Pondy stepped out of it, entering the deathmatch.
A Russian looking guy wearing sunglasses promptly fell out of the sky next to him, miraculously unhurt.
