Yeah, we're done. I just want to test one thing first: say "Crow Affectuser", to see what happens. Maybe strip off the expensive gear and put on some cheap rags, see if they get destroyed or meld into the new form.

But yeah, can we turn into birds?

Well, in that case:
Go steal whatever gear or uniforms that are within safe reach (aka not too close to the acid stream). Maybe from the guys that got blown up by the second recoilless rife blast? Also grab any magic words from said bodies that are still there.

Spoiler: Abu Hajaar (click to show/hide)
Name: Ventriloquist extraordinaire Abu Hajaar

Description: A scrawny enlistee of vaguely Middle Eastern descent. Permanently in over his head, slightly confused and wondering just how he got into this mess. Will reluctantly but reliably follow orders from his commanding officers and do his best however.

Somehow managed to end up far away from home in 'Nam to fight the commies. This left him confused. Then he got teleported to this world of mystery and magic. This did not help matters.

Gang: Ridiculous Rhomboid

Health: Fabulous.

Magic jazzhands:
Permanent: Cloud, ~~Wall~~, ~~FireForward~~, Crow, MarkCaster'sEyes, AffectUser, ~~LargeFirearm~~, Ammunition, ~~Clockwork~~, Repair, Many
Temporary: LightSource, Iron, polymorph whole body, repair
On Abdul: Crow, FireForward, Cloud, Ammunition, Wall, MarkCaster'sEyes, LargeFirearm, Clockwork, Many

Current Inventory
1 X Guard's rifle
9 X rounds for guard's rifle
1 X recoiless rifle + 3 rounds + 5 from Sarge
1 X Spiffy Uniform (formerly bloody guard garb), now with some fire resistance
1 X plague masks
1 X basic med supplies
1 X Atatatata's taxidermied corpse, 'Abdul A. Abdul'

Potency: d10
Memory: d6
Strength: d2
Dexterity: d8
Speed: d4
Vitality: d8
Endurance: d6
Intelligence: d6
Awareness: d8

Within safe reach? Wellwith your speed basically freaking nothing because the acid is still spreading. There's really only one body in range so you grab the long pole from it. The thing's uniform is slightly ruined by the fact that someone sawed it's head off and sliced up some of the uniform in the process.

Description: An older man past his prime, Corven still carries himself with the intimidating aura you'd expect from a crime boss... except when he's dealing with his daughter, who he's completely incapable of saying "No" to. That usually works out better than you'd expect, since he managed to get her the formal education he never had, though he still has wisdom on her. Has something of an unhealthy obsession with birds, though not nearly as much so as his daughter.

The Spell...goes well it takes effect but you're not entirely sure it was what you wanted.

Big Kitty turns and leaps from the flesh bridge, falling towards another bridge a level lower then a pale tentacle lashes out and snatches it straight out of the air. It wraps around big kitty like a fleshy noose and presses Chu, Shade, And DOAS flat onto the cat's back. They are held down, blind and suffocating under mollusk flesh.

Before this happens Chu sees that the roaring is coming from a 15 foot tall combination of giant man and Lion standing on the edge of the pit on the third level.

”Ma’am, allow me to introduce myself and my associates. I am Vencarlo, and these upstanding gentlemen are Mr. Morris, Mr. Poppa, and Mr. Drop shot. We have a proposition to make with you. And please excuse me for being frank, but I do believe that this is the type of offer that you won’t be able to refuse.

I’m sure you’ve noticed the rather recent resurgence of violence and armed robberies in this area. Why, it pains my heart to see such ruffians disturbing the peace and so on. Already we see whole areas of the city falling to ne’er-do-wells. You must see that it is only a matter of time before they turn their attention to this establishment.

Now, I do not doubt the ability of your guards to keep out the ordinary kinds of criminal, the everyday muggers and petty thieves. But some of the larger organizations popping up have access to all sorts of exotic weaponry that would in all likelihood reduce them to piles of writhing, squirming, charred piles of meat with a great many additional and superfluous orifices.

My organization wishes to, in the event of these groups ever attacking this establishment, offer its services to repel such intruders. For a small fee, of course. Think of it as an insurance policy of sorts. Are you interested?
