That rock candy tastes good. (5) A fresh package full of the stuff arrives at your feet upon request.
[CAWS ANGRILY]
This guy talks a big game, but so far as long as I've been following him I've found nothing interesting! Let's leave him to his boring space-politics fate and look for something more fun.
Name: Caaw
Description: A supernatural crow with iridescent blue feathers. This species grows and develops differently depending on its diet, which consists of anomalies.
Powers:
Absorb: Consumes an Anomaly or Magical object and stores its Hue. Ideally the consumed object should be small enough to be physically swallowed. Other objects can be consumed, but the process may be more involved.
Mutate: Expends a stored Hue to gain a new Power of a nature matching that Hue.
Space Shell: Caaw's blue plumage has an effect which distorts spacetime, making the space that he physically inhabits technically a pocket universe which he can translate at-will at an unlimited speed, effectively allowing him to travel to any place in the universe so long as he can navigate to it. This shell also protects him from hazardous environments, such as vacuum, environmental toxins, or extreme temperatures.
Alter Hue: Can be used to either slightly alter the characteristics of an object, such as making it slightly more warm or changing its color, or to take a characteristic from an object and apply it to another, such as copying the solid, unyielding structure of steel onto a pane of air, creating solidified air. Caaw must be able to touch both the modified object and the object being copied from. Has no effect on Anomalous objects, or ones which have had their characteristics "locked down" in some way.
Inventory: Nay!
Hue: None
You are apparently accused by the animal of being a rival, and attempts are made to chase you away, but since you're leaving anyway it makes little difference. (2) Nothing interesting going on yet.
Charge towards the Ogres Grozhar wants his axe back
Name: Grozhar the Destroyer
Description: Big and muscular Orc with many scars of battle.
Abilities: Killing Stuff with an axe.
Inventory:Barbarian "Armor", Title of property of the "Colossal Panther" Inn (Currently an empty building), Bag of Holding.
You begin sprinting in the direction of the smell, and a forest, as well as the town you're from, shows up in view.
(ETA to destination: 4 turns)
Finish of the ogers, then loot them.
Name: Blarg
Description: A zebraman that's wearing a suit.
Abilities: Good with a gun
Inventory:
Six gallons of different milks and energy drinks
Four pounds of candy and ice cream
$4,023,185
Handgun
Golf club
Ammo and mags for the handgun
Car that doesn't look like my car but is my car
AK-47
Ammo and mags for AK-47
Some kind of hockey mask
Help finish off the ogres.
Name:Sir Talis
Description:A brave soul who was inspired by the stories of knights in shining armor. Sir Talis does his best to live up to these heroes, and has sworn to follow the path of a paladin. This may be more challenging than it is for most however, since he’s also an ordinarily-sized garter snake.
Abilities:A borderline-harmless bite and other abilities possessed by a common garter snake.
Inventory:None.
Due to the apparent inability for the ogres to do anything except squeal like babies at the moment, the bipedal zebra-guy and garter snake finish off the ogres like no one's business. Blarg picks up an axe and a device that kinda looks like a remote. The axe is kinda heavy though, and the bag of farm animals they also brought is waaayyyy too heavy to carry. As for the garter snake, I don't think it would be wise to consider him as loot. He can bite, after all.
Try getting some of the money to the human that plans to rob the bank
Name: Caw
Description: A crow with purple feathers
Abilities: The purple feathers on Caw’s body allow her to know what creatures who touch her feathers are thinking. She can also send thoughts of hers to anyone touching her feathers. She can see decently in the dark.
Inventory: Nothing yet
Things Learned: Human 1: male, works at a bank, hates his job there, and he seems to dislike her/crows
Human 2: Has a detailed plan to rob the bank, doesn't mind my presence, fears the dark, has a son in need of an organ transplant
(4) You manage to scrape up about $538,000 in your talons and bring them to the human, who now looks like he might explode in shock and joy. He thanks you and offers you a spot on his shoulder as a companion.
STROKE THE LOAF
...WHY DOES THAT SOUND SO DIRTY?
(6) You pet the loaf. It rolls around and purrs harder.
Absorb the nearby trees' photosynthesis so I can gather sunlight and water to sustain myself without eating.
(6) You are now part plant. Starving and dehydration are now completely impossible for you. Some of the trees die in the aftermath though.
Vuth tries to brew booze. He does, however, lack skill in brewing.
Name: Vuth Jiksat
Description: A not-quite-muscular, not-quite-wimpy dwarf with a twenty foot long blue beard. Obsessed with blueberries.
Abilities: Charismatic.
Inventory: Set of clothes, woodcarving knife, balsam wood figurine of a rather warped-looking elf, approximately half-empty bag of blueberries, empty wineskin.
(5) The booze turns out great despite your claimed lack of skill
