I named the Cave RandomFunk, the Weird Pit of Mystery for a reason.
Random Event: The weird magic emanating from the cave is buggering up your rolls! 4 times, 1 point will be taken from one person's roll(s) and given to someone else. 8d8 will determine who loses/gains rolls, based on posting order.
Muwahahaha:
You attempt to enhance your senses. As you cast the spell, you drain your robe of the last of its magic!
{} You have succeeded in giving yourself the acute senses of a cat; you can see in almost no light, and your senses of smell and hearing are more acute. The skittering and hissing noises are now quite loud to you, and the smell of ichor would be overwhelmingly powerful if your brain would accept that it smell 'bad'. *2 QP*
(Inaluct would be next, but since he said to 'follow' someone who posted after him, I'll just put him where he would be based on when he posted his action)
Luke_Prowler:
{} You bend over, and pick up the wooden spear by the pointy part. It cuts your hand ever so slightly. Ignoring the pain, you take the spear in both hands and break it in half against your knee. You hold the pieces out to Digital, and politely ask him to please sir light these on fire to make torches. *1 QP*
Digital Hellhound:
Completely ignoring that Luke is holding his wood out to you and begging for you to give him what he wants, you
{} cast heal on yourself. It wasn't like it was the greatest spell ever, but your head is now merely bruised. *1 QP*
Katsuun:
You dismiss the Storm Elemental, and
{} summon a light elemental. It's basically a person with really bright skin and maybe some light powers. *2 QP*
Errol:
{} You enchant your choppa, and RandomFunk's magic giving you some of Katsuun's energy helped! Your choppa's blade is now wreathed in fire, and you can extinguish and relight the fire at will (for if you want to surprise someone). Muwahahaha glances at you, and his cat-like pupils shrink to amazingly small size. *2 QP*
Zasit Alebath:
You take the wood that Luke had offered to Digital, and
{} pour the contents of the fire vial on the tips. You now have 2 torches, but since they're just made of ordinary wood, they'll burn out fairly fast. You hand one of the torches back to Luke. *2 QP*
Inaluct:
You figure Errol's idea of enchanting his weapon was a pretty good one.
{} Your sword is now wreathed in flame just like Errol's choppa. You are also able to extinguish and relight your weapon's fire at will, and it automatically goes out when it is sheathed. Now you just need to find enough hands to draw the damn weapon... perhpas you could load the knife into the PPP and not launch it... *2 QP*
KnightedSkull: (GM control)
Having read Rurouni Kenshin, you
{} dip your choppa's blade in one of the dead antman's ichor, and then scrape the blade against the cave's rocky wall. The sparks light the ichor on fire! (Of course ichor is flammable.) Unfortunately, your quick fix isn't exactly the most technologically sound; if by chance the fire spreads to the choppa's wooden shaft, it will be weakened. *2 QP*
Situation: Between the lot of you, you have waaaay more than enough light to get through the cave. Luke, Errol, Zasit, and Inaluct are all holding light sources, Katsuun's Light Elemental
is a light source, and Muwahahaha needs very little light to see. It technically won't take you a full turn to walk to the next part of the cave, but since you aren't there and have no idea what
is there, you should all just walk and do something to prepare yourselves for combat.
Luke_Prowler rolls to recover: 3: Nope.

If I messed something up say so, you know the drill... But I'll point out that, when there's a puzzle or challenge to solve, it's a great opportunity for you guys to try and do something crazy, intuitive, or even
Positively Dwarven to cause hilarity or awesomeness.
