First off, lets move that coyote meat to a food stockpile indoors. Then I will take the bones to a craftsdwarf shop, and turn them into some armor for our future military. I will attempt to imbue the pieces with some magic as I do this.

If Josh watches while I do so, I will attempt to explain what I'm doing as I do it.

If my skill isn't high enough to create minor magic armor, then ignore every thing after "military".

The bolt hits the adult fox's front right leg. It is wounded a little.

The rock hits the fox's chest! It is moderately wounded.



They come for you, seething with anger, foam coming out of their mouths, to kill you to make their babies safe.


Rick:Ill say yes to the enchanting but listen for two things:
1)Well, this is for Josh:Dont expect to be able to do what Rick is doing, you might, but their might be dire consequences
2)It will be something minor.

If by "pieces" you mean "living things" and by "some magic" you mean "pure life-ending energy" then sure, I'll watch.

I'll watch either way, really.

Is bone fairly heavy? If so, and it reduces speed when worn, I'll attempt to make it lighter without sacrificing its strength.

Quick question: is armor working as AC, in which the better your armor, the less likely you are to be hit, or as Damage Reduction, in which case it eliminates some of the damage from all attacks?

Either way, if it has no effect on speed, then I try to make it protect better/reduce damage further.

BTW, I want to save that skull for later. Maybe try to make it the top for a staff, so I can focus my magic through it an attempt to increase its effectiveness.
Or perhaps I'll wait until we have something more worthy of serving as my focusing talisman. Like a dwarf/elf/human skull. Or a demon skull.  ;D

IIRC it is fairly light, and not that good at damage blocking.

AC

I'll fire a -fox bone bolt- at my previous target, striking it with pure irony!

Then I'll attempt to make it protect better.

Oh, and this has been a lot of fun so far. Keep it up!  ;D

I guess Kashyyk would probably throw his rock at the fox he threw the other one at.

The rock missed.

The -irony- hit the fox in the chest! It pierced the heart, right lung, liver, and stomach! It died.

The other fox is getting close.

I'll shoot the last adult with a no-modifier bolt, and Kashyyk will move back, out of the way.

But if he stands there I'm likely to be accused of being a team killer. Next round is a melee round, if it survives.

The bolt strikes the fox in the chest. It is mangled. He is now Bleeding.
