Round 43If the shop is up, I'll buy a *microcline idol* and a pair of +pigtail socks+. My primary action will be to ask them if they have any other quests.
I'll add a pair of cats, a -dwarven syrup roast-, and a water of wateriness to my shopping list. I'll eat the roast.
AUTO-SUCCESS: Nirur Torir buys a *microcline idol* (40 gp), a pair of +pigtail socks+ (20 gp), two cats (10 gp), a -dwarven syrup roast- (60 gp), and a water of wateriness (20 gp) for a total of 150 gold. He eats the tasty roast and feels
happy. He asks the merchants about any quests they have.
AUTO-SUCCESS: The merchants nod. "Yes, we've actually been looking for a new bodyguard. That's why we came here, actually - normally we only go to mountainhomes that can afford our goods, no offense intended. Unfortunately, everyone must be sleeping or something. We haven't seen a single person all day except you guys! Anyway, our last bodyguard, three or four people, was a bit... *kaff*
mauledbygoblins*kaff*... so how about it?"
I practice using TK to force-choke enemies.
6+stuff=5. You use your telekinetic powers to throttle the zombie a bit. You grin, and gain 2 xp.
Dejected, I get in touch with the gods. Y'know, just a quick call. Tell 'em I'm fine, ask how the wife and children are. Or man and children.
You concentrate with all your might. "Gods, hear my plea! Tell me, O Mighty Ones, what's up, dawg?"
3+1(demigod)=4. You listen carefully for any signs of reply. Meditating, you think you hear a voice of a beautiful goddess...
"Mmm, yeah, rig- Holy Thor! Who is this?!"
Scarred, you close the mental connection before the gods find out who you are and strike you with lightning.
Strike pose of asskicking. Then write invitations to local corporations.
1. You strike a mighty pose of asskicking! With nobody around to attack, you end up kicking your own ass instead. You are now lightly wounded.
You would invite people to things, but you were too busy kicking your ass.
I search the town for magic items, like spellbooks or magic armor.
3. You root around for a bit, but don't find anything. Maybe if you look harder.
Create a field of lightning that zaps away anything that comes within its boundaries.
2+1=3. You try to make a lightning barrier, but it dissipates.
Using the duct tape, I'll help build a bridge across the river.
5+1(inventiveness)=6. The crossbow generates a roll of duct tape. You knock down the trees and duct tape them together to make a sturdy bridge. However, the bridge is swept away in the current, and now the trees you used are gone! Guess you didn't use enough duct tape.
I chop a section off one of the tree trunks and use it to float down the river.
6+1(swordsman)=6. You slice off a section, hop on, and float down the river! Unfortunately, the swift currents sweep you downstream! Also, there is a waterfall some ways away with a gigantic magma reservoir at the bottom! Dang!
EVENTS
CJ is burned. He is now lightly burned. Someone should come save him.
Phazer's burn heals.
