Eximius is growing slightly annoyed by this waiting. He'd be long gone from this valley if he could move by himself.

Still nothing he can do aside from waiting. And maybe shouting at Fate to bring him a wielder already.

((Also, I wonder who's going to be the next unlucky sod to encounter the Armor.))

[crazyabe]

Head up the river to the left of the setting sun.

Red for me :3

The commotion caused by the recent monster invasion disturbed Skee. All this ceaseless agitation, all these sudden changes disrupted his quiet existence, and he did not like that. However, he felt something else, among all this doubt and anxiety. Excitation. Something had changed within himself. For the first time, Skee wanted more than just to survive. He wanted to explore, grow, become powerful... Maybe this was good after all. Deciding to take this opportunity, Skee decided to head north, looking for a strong host.

[Sarrak]

"Ah, so that is the first landmark we should investigate. Certainly not the last, though... Heh, Astrosa, care to guess who chased humans out? My bet would be on lesser demons, although desert monsters and disturbed ruin guardians hold a close second place."

Ulkas felt quite cheerful, having great expectations on these ruins. Obviously, their search could yield no results here and in several places they visit up next, but something in him felt quite certain that this place can be a perfect start... If they play their cards right.

"Just in case, but do you see anything here?"

Start investigation. Double check for powerful enemies and dangerous traps. Analyze information about these ruins I gathered before.

((Astrosa should have 39/39 MP instead of 29.))

Neophytos the Sole Survivor, Psychic Pain Spider (randomgenericusername)

Search the forests for the sylvarians and the new life tree. Apologize for failing to protect the forest and promise to help in any way a psychic insect could help them. Then try to find if anyone of my psychic kin escaped or all of them fought and died using my telepathy to detect psychic powers arround me.

(I know I am in the forest, trying to locate the leader sylvarian and the life tree.)

Species: Psychic Pain Spider -Stage 1-
Appearance: His skin is now an ashen, dull green color, marked with numerous scars and wounds. His eyes now look empty and have lost their green glow. His body is now covered by a thick exoskeleton shell, which covers a pair of insect wings, and his head has a pair of small antennae. His mind is broken, haunted by the screams of the woods.

Traits:
Telepathy: They can mentaly communicate with anything that can think, and can detect other psychic creatures at long distances.
Hardened: His numb body has grown a hard shell, making him immune to pain and resistant to physical harm.
Winged: He has gained insect wings that allows him to fly.

Skills:
Mind Blast: An attack of pure psychic power that can cause brain damage, mind control, hypnosis, madness, or other random nasty effects related to the brain. Does little physical damage and the chance of a secondary effect like brain damage depends of the user INT and the enemy IND.
Frenzy: Turns an enemy berserk and extremely violent, forcing it to attack its allies. If no allies are nearby, it will tear himself.
Silva Dolorem: Command surrounding plants to attack its enemies. The plants will attempt to infest the targets, and to grow inside them. This attack is amplified by the pain of Neophytos.

There was no need to search the forests, as you had lived in the Sylvarian camp for the past weeks or so. You strolled around the settlement, heading for the new life tree. A small shrub vibrant with life, fiercely protected by the Sylvarians. A normal monster wouldn't have been allowed to approach it, but you were an exception to the rule.

Corcio and Lafea, the current guardians greeted you. You greeted back, and once again apologized over and over about your failure to protect the Elon Woods. Seeing this small beacon of hope only brought your regrets, you couldn't help it.

"We are all at fault there. All of us were unable to protect our woodhomes, and had to leave the forest to die." said Corcio "but you who covered everyone's escape, should never have to blame itself. You have helped us so much already, we are all grateful."

There was always something to be done for the settlement. Gathering food, protecting the gatherers, warding off invaders... This new land, the Savarde Jungle, was of course already inhabited by many creatures. They fought to make a place for themselves, and this new home was still hostile to them after all.

Event Roll: [4] After your daily visit to the lifetree, you headed toward the canopy where the few psychic spiders of the settlement made their home, and by extension, your home. Only a dozen initial ones managed to escape with the main group. Most were nameless, apart from a few ones.

Among them was Khywa, the eldest of the group, a female Psychic Spider. She was far larger than the other, and quite wise. She bore on her back a sack of eggs, that would become Psychic Spiderlings in a few weeks at most.

Musician's Soul: When performing for another entity that hears and appreciates what he's playing, Ebon can gain some Essence from them, as if he had consumed part of them. Takes longer, and with more appreciation or skill, to take from higher stage monsters

Skills:
Mystic Wisps: Conjure flaming wisps from his trumpet and control them. He can only have three out at a time, though.
Warding Melody: A song imbued with protective magic. Repels evil or demonic energy, or beings possessed by them, as well as weakening the effects of curses.
Wisp Jump: A technique that allows Ebon to switch place with one of his wisps nearby. Not instantaneous, but still useful for evasion.

Despite the fierce gusts of wind threatening to send your frail physical body to be thrown away like a rag doll, you stood strong and kept floating upward. You were getting closer to exiting the cloud of sand, as you could see glimpses of the blue sky.

And eventually you did! Perseverance proved you right, and you escaped from the sandstorm.

Suddenly you heard a piercing shriek, then another and finally a whole chorus of them. Looking behind you, you saw a swarm of manta like monsters, riding the sandstorm. They were coming your way.

The being rubs its head, and the wrongness is apparent immediately, nothing like this had been seen in the dreaming, except for tales from the dreams themselves, was it in a dream?
Mrrrrrgll...
The sound is an almost otherworldly hybrid between a gurgle and a chirp as it exits the quinkans mouth.

[6] Setting off to explore this eerily... natural dreamscape. Or was it "reality"? The original plane of the dream makers?

You wandered through the chalk hills. After a while of searching aimlessly, you spotted a form. A vaguely humanoid, with a featureless shape and glowing spots on its body. It could have been a Protoquin, or another Quinkan variant. Electroquin, Shieldquin? Only way to make sure was to get closer, as the blinding light of the sun was making it hard to discern the shape.

Once you got a bit closer, the being turned around, having detected your presence.

It was no Quinkan. A very tall and bulky humanoid, made of an eerie ectoplasmic substance. The glowing markings on its body formed alien signs and letters. It had a single white "eye", which looked at you, unmoving.

You froze. What was that? Where were you?

Traits:
Tooth and Claws: Natural weapons, capable of easily tearing through flesh.
Just a dumb beast: Theta appears to be "mindless/driven by instincts" to anyone she meets.
Labyrinthine Gaze: Eye Contact with Theta is dangerous. Those who look closely may find themselves unable to look away. This prevents the affected from making any action that knowingly breaks eye contact, and counts as an active mental connection.
Nothing to Report: Those who meet Theta will find it difficult to remember what happened during the encounter. They may even forget that they met her at all.

Skills:
Blinding Terror: An attack affecting creatures with an active mental connection to Theta. Success will afflicted them with fear, urging them to get as far away from Theta as possible.
Punish the Weak: Theta jumps to the position of any living thing running away from her and attempts a coup de grâce

The of the quarry was dug in successive levels, and continued toward a valley. You were fleeing from the center, as the worms came from it. You kept leaping toward the higher ground, analyzing your surroundings on the way.

Observation:

Squelchy, the Omnislime

Squelchy hopped among the community, gently brushing with every other slime and sending this message through pheromones:

Traits:
Reformative: Slimes naturally slowly regenerate HP whilst in sunlight, or in a hot enough environment.
Luminescence:  Yellow pigmentation on the polyslime's surface gathers energy from the sun whilst in sunlight. This energy is released as light whenever the slime wishes to do so.
Blessing of the Suntree: Consuming a sunfruit granted your body the ability to produce an energy close in nature to that of the sun. The latent energy in your body is linked to your mana reserves.
Solidification: Squelchy can solidify parts of his skin at will to make him more resilient. The downside is that that part of the body is rigid, and makes it harder for him to effectively move. The solidified skin is shed once squelchy is done with it. He can use this principle to also create slimy structures, if he has enough time and food to recover the body parts he sheds.

Skills:
Pounce: The slime flings itself into the air and lands upon its opponent.
Flash: A blinding light is shone upon the target, rendering it temporarily or even permanently sightless.
Glimmering Hope: Squelchy can call upon the light within him to give him an increase to stats until the light within him dims enough to be useless; until the light regenerates, he is weaker.

New Directives:

The Azarian Project headed south, longing to escape from these savage lands.

After hours of moving southward, he came across a forest of black, thorny trees. There was something unnerving about this place, but he still chose to cut through.

As he was walking, he heard a brush behind him. Turning back, he saw nothing. Only these black, leafless trees seemingly made of petrified wood. Resuming his walk, he heard the brush again, closer.

Now, he was sure, there was something there. He looked up in the sky. Nothing but the same gray clouds. He waited, analyzing his surroundings... until a branch moved.

What moved noticed it had been spotted, and broke off the masquerade. A monster with countless black, long appendages ending with a sharp end moved toward The Azarian Project. Its body was a black sphere supported by these many limbs, which it used to move around the trees with a constant, silent motion.

Traits:
Bonded Weapon - Eximius is an ancient magical artifact and gains all the advantages and disadvantages of being such. His very existence is also bonded to his wielder. Aside from his form as a ring, he can also morph into his wielder's preferred melee weapon. They live and die together, unless the wielder expires due to natural causes - in which case Eximius will sooner or later happen upon another wielder due to the powers of fate. If Eximius and his wielder fall, Eximius himself will be found by a new wielder in a few centuries - fate itself twisting the facts to make Eximius continue existing.
>Passive: Since Eximius and his wielder are technically one entity, they supplement each other's stats during rolls.
Of Ambition - Eximius intensifies the wielder's inner desires, driving him or her to pursue their ambitions, whether they be things as simple as protecting/slaughtering the weak or something more involved, like gaining control over a kingdom and such.


Skills:
Limiter Release - Eximius can temporarily disable his wielder's physical limiters, inflicting slight amounts of damage but increasing their abilities overall. (This is preferably a STR skill)

"Follow the sunset" said the voice. So you did. Walking for uneventful hours through the woods, you eventually reached a hill. From the top of this ground, you could see mountains in the distance, and what seemed to be plains.

There were monsters around, but most seemed uninterested in you.

Skree, the Insect Parasite (Legendary Marksdorf)

Red for me :3

The commotion caused by the recent monster invasion disturbed Skee. All this ceaseless agitation, all these sudden changes disrupted his quiet existence, and he did not like that. However, he felt something else, among all this doubt and anxiety. Excitation. Something had changed within himself. For the first time, Skee wanted more than just to survive. He wanted to explore, grow, become powerful... Maybe this was good after all. Deciding to take this opportunity, Skee decided to head north, looking for a strong host.

Spoiler: Skree, the Insect Parasite (Stage 0) - (Legendary Marksdorf) (click to show/hide)

Name: Skee
Species: Insect Parasite -Stage 0-
Appearance: A small (think grasshopper), 8-legged insect with a large, crescent shaped-head and a long tail that ends with a sharp stinger. It's whole body is covered with a thick exoskeleton.

Max HP: 10

STR 0
CON -1

INT 1
IND 1

Traits:
Parasitic Lifeform: Skee is a parasite. Outside of a host body, he's (almost) no different from a mundane critter and thus extremely vulnerable. However, once Skee has taken over a host, he's able to tap into their inner strength, increasing their strength and magical prowess, and maybe even revealing hidden abilities the host wasn't aware off. Depending on the size and mental resilience of the host, taking complete control of their body after entering it can take from 5 minutes up to several days. He can leave the host body at any moment, and they'll have no recollection of what happened. (Being inside a host replaces Skee's own Strength, Constitution, Power and Resistance by the host's, slightly increased.)

Skills:
Paralytic Poison : Skee's one mean of defense when outside of a host. He stings the enemy injects a strong paralyzing poison, resulting in complete momentarily paralysis. The poison is non-lethal although if an excessive dose is injected, the target might die from cardiac arrest.

Northward:
Event Roll: [6]
You pushed your luck north, getting closer to the limits of the jungle. Avoiding large gathering of creatures, and ignoring the seemingly weak ones, you eventually found what seemed to you like a suitable host.

A sleeping tiger with a powerful body and many scars. That one would probably make a fine host, you thought.

The tiger opened an eye, looking straight toward you. It shouldn't have been able to see you, you thought. But it knew you were there, you could see it in its eyes.

Go'Von, the Gray Ooze (Puppyguard)

((Wow, I didn't think I would be in for quite some time. I choose maroon for my color.))

Go'Von was hungry. His instincts told him to climb up on the ceiling and wait for prey to come underneath so he could smother them to death.
Go'Von climbed onto the ceiling and waited for something to come under him, then he would smother it to death.

You slowly made your ascent to the ceiling, fortunately undisturbed by whatever lived here. The ceiling was high, very high. He quickly reached it, but realized afterward that dropping on something from such a distance would be a bad idea.

Then he spotted a long stalactite, and creeped on it until he reached the end. Now, the distance was perfect.

Now he waited.

Something came. A white furred monster with no visible eyes walking on all four. It had an elongated neck, and its arms were longer than its hind legs. It was huge, and seemed very aggressive. From its toothed maw constantly dripped saliva.

Eventually, it walked right under your spot.

Ulkas, the Horned Demon (Sarrak)

"Ah, so that is the first landmark we should investigate. Certainly not the last, though... Heh, Astrosa, care to guess who chased humans out? My bet would be on lesser demons, although desert monsters and disturbed ruin guardians hold a close second place."

Ulkas felt quite cheerful, having great expectations on these ruins. Obviously, their search could yield no results here and in several places they visit up next, but something in him felt quite certain that this place can be a perfect start... If they play their cards right.

"Just in case, but do you see anything here?"

Start investigation. Double check for powerful enemies and dangerous traps. Analyze information about these ruins I gathered before.

((Astrosa should have 39/39 MP instead of 29.))

"I agree, it probably wasn't demons. Monsters, or maybe the ruin guardians this golden golem spoke of, seeing how the humans left all kind of tools around."

That wasn't wrong, you heard that demons scavenged anything capable of giving them a technological advance. They wouldn't have left this camp unlooted. Not like anything here interested you, there were no magical items after all.

You coordinated with Astrosa to investigate the ruins before entering.

Astrosa:
Eyes of the Mighty:

Astrosa scrutinized the area minutely. After a pause, she answered "Nothing apart the two of us. Hah, weak creatures must instinctively flee from us now. Don't you think?"

She smiled at the rhetorical question, then pointed at the ruin's gate.
"But there is a different story.I can glimpse something inside, but we are still too far."

Ulkas:
Investigation:
Action Roll (Diff 10): [20] -Critical Success-

Doubling on Astrosa's investigation, you probed the area for presence. Nothing. Then you carefully analyzed the ruins entrance, and it seemed there was no trap of any kind.

It seemed too easy, but maybe sometimes thing could actually go without a hitch?

Then you reviewed what the Sentinel told you about these specific ruins. Some of the artifacts from the Vault came from these ruins named the Ruins of Taes. Named as such, because the only readable words at the entrance of the ruins formed "Taes".

Many mechanisms protected the place, and the deepest part of it was never reached. The traps and guardians of the ruin always changed and returned, and Valern couldn't never afford to fully explore the ruins because of a treaty with Ashafan. Then the war came, and Valern disappeared, and the rest is history.

(Shard of) Breadweed, the Resilient (ATHATH)

Review my knowledge of alchemy; how does it work in this world?

Pick up some magical-looking plants and try to make my way towards civilization.

Spoiler: (Shard of) Breadweed, the Resilient (Stage 0) - (ATHATH) (click to show/hide)

Name: (Shard of) Breadweed, the Resilient
Species: Breadweed
Appearance: A flower with a loaf of bread replacing the head of the flower. The loaf of bread has a face on it.

Breadweed was not always in his current state. In a dimension far, far away from this one, he used to be a mana spirit. Then he poured fractal bread essence onto himself, and became a breadweed. Then he was brutally torn apart and consumed by savage/feral snake people. Then the mush that was his corpse was extracted from the stomachs of said snake people and poured into a brain mold, which was then placed in a jar. He lived in his brain-in-a-jar form for a while before accidentally creating a psionics-eating weapon of mass destruction, which then proceeded to almost kill him. Fortunately, he was saved by the goddess of death that he worshipped... which then extracted the abstract orb (the conduit between me (ATHATH) and Breadweed) from Breadweed and threw it into a celestial shredder/trash bin, which shredded the abstract orb and sent its remnants into the void between dimensions. Breadweed's former body became the entity known as Reaperweed and became a happy/contented servant of the aforementioned goddess of death. Another abstract orb was created, and a new entity, Bookweed, was created to carry out my will upon Breadweed's home dimension.

However, the first abstract orb refused to die. Its fragments floated in the void between dimensions, eventually landing in/on multiple dimensions. Each shard instinctively created a familiar mortal shell around itself when it landed in a new world, and this one created a form that was similar to Breadweed's breadweed form.

Max HP: 10/10
Max MP: 10/10

STR -1
CON 0
POW 1
RES -1
INT 1

Traits:
Refusal to Die: If Breadweed is killed he returns in a new form that is 2 stages less powerful than his previous one in a nearby safe area. If Breadweed is killed when he is at stage 1 or lower (or stage 2 or lower if we can't play as a stage 0 creature), he dies for real (by "he", I mean "this particular shard").

Skills:
Alchemy: This shard of Breadweed's knowledge of the mechanics of alchemy from its home dimension somehow transformed into knowledge of the mechanics of alchemy in this dimension. As such, he is proficient in the use and creation of potions and other alchemical items/techniques.
Suggestion: This shard of Breadweed has retained some of its ability to influence the minds of others with its psionic powers. This ability plants (reasonable) hypnotic suggestions in the minds of others.

Alchemy (Skill):
Action Roll (Diff 10): [5] -Failure-
Outcome Roll: [1] -Critical Failure-

You focused on the alchemical knowledge from your home dimension, letting your mind naturally give meaning to this world Alchemy. Words poured into your mind, concepts, techniques... But you focused too much on your old knowledge, and mixed everything up.

It was too late when you realized it. When you attempted to think of this world Alchemy, everything became a mess, and you felt unable to understand it.

You vaguely understood that this world's alchemy relied on the "purpose" of things. To alter the purpose of an object, to break down an object into purposes... Ugh, what was it again?

You felt like you would understood better with practice. But for now, your knowledge was too confused.

Herbs Gathering:
Action Roll (Diff 10): [13]-2 (Confusion) -Success-
Outcome Roll: [2] -Success-

You started gathering plants that seemed magical. But upon closer look, all the plants around here seemed magical. Maybe you lucked out on that side, was it some sort of magical forest?

Wandering randomly in some direction, you hoped to find civilization.

Wandering:
Event Roll: [6]

The forest was silent and serene. After a while of exploring, you noticed the flicker of a light ahead. Approaching cautiously, you spotted what seemed like a campsite.

The ring is nearly vibrating with excitement. While the human most likely won't be able to hear him until he (or she) puts him on, Eximius has been wielderless for far too long to not attempt something that would make him more noticeable.

"Oi, kid! Over here! Come on, find me! Don't leave me here, man! I'm lonely!"
