If we're actually going with hemomancy, I'm just going to paste the raws for it here for everyone's reference.

To sum it all up for people who can't read raws, even though we're just a novice we are now immortal, don't have to eat or drink, can make any creature with blood bleed profusely at will, can create blood men and blood blobs to serve as evil minions from existing corpses or pools of blood, and any other abilities we care to make up for the story. Although, we're probably going to have to practice a lot to actually be able to get any good at it. That being said, practice your hemomancy on the pool of blood until you can get the tiny blood minion to be able to hold his physical shape and function on his own. Then make him a little blood hat, blood sword, and blood shield and send him off looking for the lever. If he comes back successfully, promote him to general of the eventual kobold blood army. Then escape, sneak in the shadows, search for more blood, and generally try to remember just what it was you were trying to do in the first place. Oh, and recover your gear or find replacement gear.

Animate a speck of blood and move it in front of the cat like a laser pointer

+1

Very +1

[DG]

And then direct the blood-lazer-pointer (blazer pointer?) to the key that might be handily hung up on a wall for the cat to knock down.

Alternatively, or first, just check if your head is small enough to fit through the bars so you can simply squeeze out.

[MottledPetrel]

Direct blood laser pointer onto the face of whoever is unlucky enough to walk by. There's virtually no way that they can know it's you doing it. That is, unless you're doing some kind of hand movements to do the magic, which would suck.

Hey everyone. I'm having so much fun making this comic for you all. I really want to make a website dedicated to the comic and have even more forms of reader interaction so I am making a Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/losingisfun Consider donating because it really helps me get more time to update faster. Higher teirs also get access to mini dwarf fortress themed comics or even your own character that might show up in the comic.

[MadMonkey]

You spend some time experimenting with hemomancy. Although you can sense it's presence, you can't do anything to the blood in your body or the cats body. You can only move the spilled blood around. Atleast for now. You are now an adequate hemomancer.

After several hours pass the bars slide open



A guard knocks on the wall with his mace. "Come on. Get up. Time for training."

You direct the blazer pointer at the guards face.

Have the cat sneeze through the helmet slit and pass on the dormant zombie-virus.

Check inventory and stats.

[Dunamisdeos]

First of all, Blazer Pointer should be the official name of that move ™, because it's fantastic. If we ever improve upon it, we must upgrade the name as well, to perhaps Blazer Pointer II or Blazer Pointera/Pointega.

Second

Check inventory and stats.

This is important. +1. Also we should comply with these people's training stuff for now. Be sure to dodgeroll out of the cell to demonstrate our advanced potential.

[pikachu17]

You do realize that they'll probably be training by killing us, right?

[Dunamisdeos]

Well it's not like we're going to stop them from taking us somewhere. Not even the utter genius of flinging a cat availed us.

Maybe we can get the cat to scratch someone via Blazer Pointer and then blow up all their blood or something. Anyway dodgeroll out of the cell, and then pose dramatically.
