Okay guys, starting this turn: A LOCATIONS LIST! Mostly for my own use, so that I don't have to actually re-read the previous turn to figure out where the hell you people are.
Luke_Prowler:
{} You try to practice with your sword, and- wait- you only have two hands, and you're already carrying a torch and a buckler. Hell with putting one of them DOWN or something, that would be just weird. Then you take your Strange Stone out of your backpack, putting your torch into the same hand you're carrying your buckler with (bucklers attach to your wrist more than your hand... right?) to do so, and examine the Strange Stone.
{} It looks like a stone. You place it back in your backpack.
Muwahahaha:
You auto-camouflage, and walk into the cave, using your cat-vision to guide you. Once you catch up to the others, you take the Strange Stone out of your backpack and examine it. Despite your best, overpowered efforts, the only thing you can figure out about it is that it has magical properties. As good as you are at magic, this is new stuff.
{} You figure out that it's a magic item like a scroll or a wand, and activate it. The Strange Stone speaks and says, "Zero." You set your INSAYN mind to puzzling out what the significance of zero is... you quickly realize that you simply don't have enough information to figure out what zero could be, or rather, what could be zero. You place the Strange Stone in your backpack again.
Inaluct:
{} You get excited about suddenly being in possesion of a Strange Stone, and look around for more of them to use as ammunition. You look around the room, searching every inch of floor you can see (and you can see most of the inches in this room, there's a lot of light), and get a couple bruises on your hands. The only thing you find or figure out is that there are weird glowing stalactites hanging from the roof, not that stalactites ever appear anywhere else.
{} Now, how to pick up some glowing stalactite rocks? They're hanging on the roof! And you're already carrying way too much stuff anyway! You're stumped. Shrugging, you head through the
{} left door. Your plastic golem, feeling slightly forgotten, follows you.*1 QP*
Digital Hellhound:
{} You try to charge Group Heal, but you bork it and conjure a fireball instead. At least you can use it as a light source. Speaking of which, Inaluct didn't have an active light source (his sword is sheathed), so you follow him. *2 QP*
Katsuun:
Linked as you are with your elemental (not through intertoobz-ness, it's because you summoned it), you order it to follow Inaluct and Digital. It does so. Then you examine your Strange Stone.
{} You determine that, since your technological prowess isn't helping your figure this thing out at all, that it is a magical item and not a technological one.
Zasit Alebath:
{} You noticed how Muwahahaha was able to make his rock talk using magic, and you try. Your Strange Stone talks to you and says, "Zero Percent. But not for long." Huh? What? Zero percent of what? Whatever. You replace it in your backpack (of COURSE you'd already taken it out), and practice swinging your axe around a bit.
{} After a couple swings, you realize that with a weapon like an axe, the best tactic is to try and overpower an opponent with sheer weight and force.
KnightedSkull:
{} You remove your plate mail, take your shirt off, and smother the fire on your weapon with your shirt. You put your clothes back on.
Errol:
{} You take out your Strange Rock. You look at the choppa. You look at the Strange Rock. You figure it would work quite nicely if you made a small hole in your choppa and placed the Strange Rock in it. It would also look pretty cool. But, impatient as you are, you don't bother trying right now. You head through the right door. *1 QP*
Situation: Inaluct, Digital Hellhound, and Katsuun's Light Elemental are in a low, large chamber; as they enter, they hear nearby skittering noises and an ear-splitting hiss of rage. Digital holds his fireball aloft, and KLE points (focusing the light from its body forward), and the three of you can see figures at the far end of the room; three antmen, but these ones are orange unlike the previous ones (which were brown), and they are carrying weapons. There is also another one, a really REALLY fat white one, the AntQueen. It sees you, and hisses again; it's quite loud, and the cavern's echoes aren't helping. As the four ants link up mentally, outside, Katsuun recognizes their presence.
Elsewhere, Errol stumbles into a huge chamber: slightly larger even than the main hall back at the castle. By the light of your Flaming Choppa, you can see scales (big ones), some pearly-white teeth (three feet long), and a closed eyelid. You breathe a sigh of relief. Sraxxakex is asleep. But he's also HUGE.

Oh and btw, I'm not telling you guys precisely what the ?? in your statuses mean, or precisely what the Strange Stones are telling you. But I will tell you that you can walk one area (i.e. from Cave Chamber 1 to Sraxxakex's Lair) as a free action, or you can move through a whole area as a turn action. And you can only 'T'ravel to the overworld if you're in a place that connects directly to it. So you can get from Cave Chamber 1 to anywhere else in RandomFunk, or even 'T'ravel (by using your 1 free move to get to the entrance and then 'T'ravelling).
