Feathered Steak Golem(54-30=24)
Dave Blade was getting annoyed. But he had hope.
"The knife in it's head is a weak spot. You can hit it to drive it deeper."
I have to throw three more knives from safety before going to engage in riskier close range combat. Get it over with.
Knife Throw!(1) vs. Dodge!(4-2=2)
Dave Blade pulled out another knife... then realized he was clutching it a bit too hard with his wounded hand for some unfathomable reason and dropped it.
More Critical Fail?!(1)
The knife promptly fell on Dave Blade's foot.
Resist!(3)
It didn't really look good, but it didn't look too bad either.
((If by "get it over with", you meant throw all your remaining knives, tell me and I'll edit it in, it's an acceptable multi-action because the golem's focusing on Raphael and has significantly lower INIT than you this turn.))
Meanwhile,
Pondy was committing suicide and
Blue was feeling avarice.
Fall in depression becuse i cant do anything right and jump down the hole
Fall!(5)
Pondy ran over to the loot fusing pit and tossed himself in.
A massive plume of fire shot up, visible to everybody, and killed him. Sacrifice accepted. The fire formed into a ball in mid-air, then exploded against the ground, leaving behind a new contestant,
Grimmy the Grim Reaper. The fire promptly incinerated his cheap scythe.
"Here, let me refill that chalice for you."
Another logic attack! If it fails again, take the chalice by force, and then try and take the slingshotosaurus if there's room in the turn or I succeed well at taking the chalice.
Logic!(2) vs. Resist!(3-1=2)
DERPBOT wasn't really responsive to Blue's argument. Blue shrugged and went for the grab.
Take!(3) vs. NOOOO!(3)
Blue's attempt was rather half-hearted. An infestation of the parasite called pity still remained in him. DERPBOT wasn't really holding on to the chalice, though, not much anyways. Nothing happened.
Raphael followed Dave Blade's lead.
Focus attacks on the head.
Affinity!(3) vs. Dodge!(2-2=0)
The scarf slowly reached towards the knife on the ground next to the golem, slowly grabbed it, then swung it towards the slowly moving golem.
Affinity!(6) vs. Resist!(3)
The knife scored a line across the golem's torso. A good hit, but not the best possible.
... and now the scarf's head was covered in steak grease, dangit.
DERPBOT figured a bath would help. Seeing as there wasn't any water around, acid would do.
Drinking is bad? But I was right about something?
Bathe in the chalice acid!
Affinity!(6)
For once, acid poured freely from the chalice. In fact, the amount of acid was much higher than before. DERPBOT was bathed in acid.
Resist!(1)(counts as 0 for head and chest)
He didn't take it well. Screams, probably of pain, echoed from DERPBOT's mouth, which was promptly filled with acid.
Dinosaur Resist!(6, 6, 5, 3 = 3) ((Impossibly good. Wow.))
DERPBOT's dinosaur minion was dead to begin with, but now it was extra dead, a fact which made him scream even harder, which got more acid in his throat. At least the dinosaur was still intact, a good sacrifice it would make, Blue thought.
Instant Death?(3)
DERPBOT's condition was fairly critical, but it wouldn't kill him yet.
Affinity?!(5)|||Stupid Interpretation!(1)
In the throes of his agony and stupidity, DERPBOT had obtained many insights about his loot. He understood. There was so much to this loot. His bath would be helpful after all! He would save himself from death!
And with the level of control DERPBOT managed over his loot, it was possible. Unfortunately, his addled and rather melted mind decided on a course of action that... didn't help matters. He would go further. Much further. The acid burned away DERPBOT's skin, but still it burned deeper. It burned through muscle and bone, but burned deeper. It burned through organs, but burned deeper. DERPBOT's mad ambition was just as possible as a saner one that would have saved him, but he took it much too fast.
One of the interesting properties of the acid was fairly obvious at that point. What was left of DERPBOT was being reconstructed. Using not just what was left of DERPBOT, but also the ground eaten away by the bath of acid. Intricate patterns formed in hardened skin. In the end, a rock golem holding a titanium chalice stood before Flabort and Blue. A gothic rock golem, from the looks of things. It was very gothic looking in design.
Blue and Flabort didn't really like the looks of the golem, but as time passed, they eased. The golem wasn't moving. It was rock solid. They didn't know why it wasn't moving, but if they had cracked open the golem's head, they might have figured out how. Had they removed the golem's brain and examined it, they would have seen a brain made of a muddied fusion of rock and brain tissue, muddied up with gothic patterns. That wasn't very conductive to actual function. Perhaps if DERPBOT had mastered his loot and was sane, he could have created a functioning rock brain, or exempted his brain from melting. But he wasn't a master of his chalice, in fact, he was barely a beginner, and he wasn't sane at all due to Blue's idiot pellet. The golem was really more of a statue. A flesh and rock statue. A very realistic and gothic statue... that was still holding the chalice in a firm grip. Flabort sighed.
((Well then. Now, flabort isn't actually next in INIT, but I didn't want to break the flow here, and it wouldn't hurt anybody...))
Flabort figured the fight was over. And not very pitched.
((sips from nasuea medicine))
Continue this stalemated pitched battle with my axe. Try and turn friend cloak back into gauntlet through willpower and commands.
Connection!(3)
Yes, there was definitely a way to turn his gauntlet back. It wasn't actually automatic, it was just accidentally triggered... now if only he knew how. Or if his friend cloak would be more clear.
The
Feathered Steak Golem decided the guy that hurt it finally was the actual threat.
Vengance will be mine!
Fist!(1-2=-1) vs. Dodge!(2)
A very slow fist missed a very slow dodge. The golem was getting as irritated as a golem could get. But it would be patient. Eventually, it would hit.
~~~
When
DOOMBOT died, another person stepped from the portal.
Frank eyed Grimmy and his surroundings nervously.
Frank noticed he was wearing a belt, and on that belt were three potions, one dull white, one light orangish pinkish with orange flakes floating around in it, and one glowing golden.
Grimmy noticed his scythe was back, except it definitely wasn't flimsy anymore, it looked and felt like an actual scythe now, and better yet, one meant for combat.
