Turn 50!: Frogbear, Oranges, Mutual Brainwashing FailureINIT:
NAV/Dave Blade(4)
Person/Raphael(82)
Dancing Grape Golem(7)
GigaGiant/Capko Eagleson(33-20=13)
Yottawhat/Willam A. Drango(57)
ATHATH/Spoopy(98)
Edgar(54)
Spoopy noticed Raphael charging him, but it was too late! ... or at least it would have been if Spoopy aimed to sacrifice immediately.
Yeah, I had already realized that I had enough loot to make a piece of Tier 3 loot before making my previous action, but I wanted to test out/check out the piece of Tier 2 loot before doing so.
Attempt to determine the properties of the spear. Can it influence the facial expressions of others? Can it make others more susceptible to bribery? Can it perform copyright strikes on my foes?
If I can't find any magical-seeming properties, chuck the spear into the pit with my other two pieces of Tier 2 loot in order to forge a mighty piece of Tier 3 loot. Test out the properties of said piece of Tier 3 loot, and keep Person from getting his grubby mitts on it (or the loot that I throw into the pit).
Also, casually roundhouse kick the guy that's attacking me if he keeps trying to attack me (directly (hitting me) or indirectly (ordering his minion to hit me)), and watch out for that demon-minion-guy.
Intuition!(4)
Spoopy figured the spear might have an effect based on stabbing someone. Items often had effects related to their purpose, after all. How was he supposed to test that?
Well, there was a decent test subject charging right at him...
Stab!(6) vs. Dodge!(1)
Impale!(4, 2 = 4) vs. Resist!(6)
Raphael panicked as he noticed Spoopy line up a shot directly to his heart, and raised his arm. His scarf saved him a lot of harm, but took damage itself.
No magical properties seemed to emerge... Spoopy turned to the pit, but Raphael had other plans in mind!
Distracted?!(5)
Raphael quickly calmed himself. He needed to stop Spoopy from sacrificing his loot!
Keep slashing at spoopy.
Slash!(2) vs. Dodge!(1)
Spoopy didn't even notice Raphael continue his attack. That was the only reason Raphael's horribly aimed slash hit.
Slash!(5+1=6) vs. Resist!(5)
Could it really be called a hit, however? Spoopy got a small gash on his back for his trouble, and it didn't seem to slow him down at all.
Spoopy took the crossbow, the spear, and the chalice in his hands, and tossed them all into the pit.
The second piece of Tier 3 loot emerged. ((Well shoot, the aspects list still isn't working. Well, deadEarth mutations table it is!))
Spoopy looked at the frogbear. The frogbear stared right back. Well then. Spoopy did note that the bear had a changeable quality to it, like he could pick a word and use it to improve the loot...
William A. Drango needed to finish off his opponent fast before he succumbed to his power!
Shoot at Capko in the torso.
William moved out of the cutting fog, then lined up a shot on Capko.
Bang!(1, 6 = 6) vs. Dodge!(1)
The bullet hit Capko in the torso.
Bang!(2, 5 = 5) vs. Resist!(4-2=2)
It hit something important, but Capko certainly wasn't finished...
Willpower!(4-1-1=2)
Suddenly, the tables turned on Capko, as he realized the power and beauty of the revolver that had shot him! But perhaps the mace was more beautiful?
Edgar was doing secret things... which Raphael no longer had any vision of.
Capko Eagleson, though his own will was being weakened, sought to dominate another's will.
Using my authority as the leader of the Cult of the Foggy Mace, order William to become my follower and return the mace to me, its rightful owner. If this fails, rush William and try to steal back my mace.
Command!(1) vs. Resist!(3-2=1)
Capko opened his mouth and coughed up blood. William's mind was open, weak, any command would have worked, but no command? That was different. Failing that, he charged William!
Grab!(3) vs. Dodge!(3)
Capko charged, and barely missed the mace which was his!
Dancing Grape Golem stood guard!
Dave Blade made haste to the side of the pit where Spoopy wasn't, and started sacrifices!
To The Pit. Try to go to the least busy side of the pit.
Sacrifice the music hatchet and bolo for a tier 2, sacrifice the vomit frog shotgun, wand of hearts and horseshoes, and ravaged friend gauntlet for a tier 3.
Anyone who tries to interfere gets you know incinerated by fire breath and deafened by a chainsaw and slashed by a chainsaw and slashed by a katana by a dancing grape golem.
In went the hatchet, in went the bolo. Dave would take his Tier 2!
... ((I'm using Flabort's aspects list now.))
A cutlass shot out of the pit and embedded itself in the ground by Dave Blade's feet. But there was still greater to come...
In went the shotgun, in went the wand, in went the useless gauntlet for a Tier 3 loot, the third ever made...
A sack of oranges, pink and purple in color plopped itself down by Dave Blade's feet.
((I may need to adjust how I use Flabort's aspects list, that was brutal.))
~~~
The ground began to rumble. The ground began to crack.
The island started splitting in pieces. Stay tuned for turn 51.5, detailing the map's new configuration!~~~
