As my first actual action was to:
Cast a Phase Door
I am still right beside Mallos.

Take advantage of the fact that Glass has thus-far ignored my existence to surprise Mallos (+1) and drag him through the phase door. (We both travel through, using up both uses.)
I had you use it once as part of the roll being a 2. Also, you're not getting any bonus here. If he made an action to ignore you, and it's happened for several turns in a row, THEN I might apply it.

 Also, I see that chaotic skies even changed the name of the thread for this. Thanks, but you should know I have plans to migrate the adventure somewhere else at some point. Don't tell any of the players, though.  :P

Unmodified roll: throw Mallos through the Phase door.

Though I'm not going anywhere, keep your smile if someone else leaves. It seems like this will be a fun, short RtD.

Edit: homonyms.

You feel the universe...realign.

AKA, I realized that the ASCII art was broken, so I fixed it. It looked good in the preview window, but it was a lot wider than the actual post. That's why it was broken.
Oh, it's still broken. Having it in [code][/code] or [tt][/tt] tags would work wonders for it.
Which is why I took some slight liberties with the flipping...  ;)

Oh, and..  meditate upon the existence of Hawaiian Pizza, just because.

I don't care that I was told I am dead, I'll respawn by not listening to the spikes or anyone else telling me I'm dead.

Don't worry too much about the one mistake, Smoke Mirrors. Your character was memorable for all the demonology and story writing.

I’m running a game/mechanics test called Fate/Mechanics Test. Feel free to check it out.

I won't migrate it for a decent while. Still have to straighten out the physical setting, as well as determine how specific parts of the mechanic work. Also, it won't be AS minimalistic, so no conjuring shoggoth butlers...at first.

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

We're glad you're the decent sort, but don't overdo it. Simplicity will help you quite a bit in the long run.

At least make the beginning simple. Save the "roll 37D20 to save the girl" stuff for VERY late game :P

(Talking of dice...)

"Babylon 5 dice"1. Red D6 plus Green D6 rolled. Lowest dice is the number, negative if it's the red one, positive if the green one. Equal dice is zero/neutral, except for double-6 (essentially a critical success) or double-1 (critical failure). Use against the already established difficulty to quantify the degree of success (or otherwise).



1Looking for a link, I find they've apparently completely D20ed it.  Probably another system ruined by D20ing (IMO!). Original Star Wars D6 worked better than the D20 version.  Meh.

Sorry it's taking so long. Several small things keep happening to me in a row, so the turn's taken a fair while. I'm most of the way through it, though. Sorry for the wait.

Don't worry, we can be patient.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.
