Throw Gak and the toy upwards, so that I can catch them later. Swoop around at high speed. Dive down, and activate the jets so that I'll fall faster than gravity. Send some fire before me, down into the mist. Flare my wings to slow, spray more fire onto the stuck cart, and try to pick up Vladen and the interrogator off it. Drag them both out of the mist.
On the way back up, catch Gak and the toy in the other claw and my mouth, if possible. If I needed both claws for Vladen and the inspector, try to juggle them both into one claw, and failing that, let the toy fall. The inspector is shinier than the toy was, anyway.
(6) you launch Gak and the toy skyward, like tow kinetic missiles attempting to strike down the Heavens themselves.
(2) you flip over to begin your dive, but your engines stall, you are still floating upward. At least you are ballistic now, much like your recent passenger.
eh, could have been worse. You could have succeeded in all your rolls.
((Oh heck I didn't see that this got updooted with a turn till today))
try and get to my injured teamates and heal them and keep the untrained medical malpractice suits in waiting away from the injured patience
(5) you fly the cart up out of the weird little storm and park next to the other smoking cart. (6) "Hey, don't use that salve, it'll probably boil his skin right off his body," You warn Kongor, shouldering past and staring at Rex for a long minute. You then tear off one of his limbs and swallow it whole, ignoring his screams as you do. Satisfied, you then begin to beat him senseless, pounding on every exposed inch of his flesh. "Oh quit your whimpering you big baby. Look, you are all better now." "Use the Aloe and the honey, Kongor. That's far less likely to kill the 'pus than that vile concoction.
see if I have any supplies that can help the octopus with his...injury?
you have that "burn" salve you made, and some Aloe vera and some honey.
"Yes! Give me the medicine, peasant! Please."
Well...at least you said please... Give my burn salve to Rex
Instead, you lather the aloe vera and honey all over what's left of the Octopus King. It seems ot help, and he is left with a nice shiny gleam.
"You guys owe me one, alright? Had I not warned everyone about the mist, we would be all dead."
Stay in the safe cart for now. Try to regenerate from the burns? Apply that medicine the monkey gave me in my burns.
See the last two players turns for what happens to you. You are mostly better now, but you are missing a limb that your unnatural healing will not regenerate, because it was consumed in order to heal you. Eventually it might regenerate, but slowly, and not til after this mission.
((Whoops, been a tad distracted lately.))
Gak decides to take this moment to contemplate life. Nothing better to do when you’re getting mecha-dragon taxi service. ”Man, it really is nuts how I ended up here, isn’t it? One minute you’re cavorting around the Lower Planes with nothing better to do, next you’re on a mission to steal the heart of a world and avoiding random abyssal tides and shit. I did not expect this life development. But hey, least I met you girls. You make everything worth it, you adorable murder weapons.
Alright c’mon now, that dragon’ll be back any time now. Aaaaany second.”
The wind whistles in Gak’s ears as he falls with all the grace of a metal statue.
Spread my arms and legs wide to try to slow my fall. Hope the dragon catches me before I hit something.
1 & 7: Betty and Veronica, Twin Knives. Supernaturally sharp. Not like "slice an atom" sharp. More like "highly effective dagger" sharp. Don't try prying doors open with them, but they'll cut pretty good. Betty is better at stabbing/piercing and Veronica is better at slicing/slashing.
2: Elektra, Blade of Bright Judgment: Very sharp and carries a lightning charm. Can discharge elecricity into a target 3-5 times before needing recharged. Will recharge one charge every two rest hours, or a full charge if attached to a power source.
3: Mimsy, Knife of Spider Summon. A fragile knife. Best you don't actually swing it at someone, lest it shatter. But held in both hands, you can summon a variety of spiders to your location.
4: Carmen, Heat Knife. again, not an effective combat weapon, but useful for such things as combatting frostbite, making s'mores, getting that cup of coffee juuuuuust right.
5: Phoebe, Dagger of Illuminating Murder. While wielded, you can see in total darkness, and can shroud yourself in unnatural darkness. Alternatively, the dagger can emit a blinding light, aimed in the direction of your choosing. This dagger definitely likes to stab things.
6: Edith, Stiletto of Noisy Ancestors. This thing starts mumbling when drawn. The sound rises over time, up to the sound of dozens of irritable geriatrics in heated argument.
8: Cecilia, Juggler's Trick Knife. A knife with a variety of prestidigital effects. Nothing directly harmful. Fun at parties.
You idly wonder at the size of the crater your impact will leave behind. You wonder if your soul will be trapped in your mangled remains, or if the damage will be enough to send you to one or the other of the hells. You wonder if your ladies have spiritual aspects that will follow you into darkness.
