First, I say "Ow" a few times, then I'll cast Cure Moderate Wounds on myself.
Luck 2: You suffer some blood loss. You feel lightheaded.

3+1=4
You cast Cure Moderate Wounds on yourself.

Right Arm: Lightly Wounded
Right Hand: Lightly Wounded
Chest: Unwounded
Left Arm: Severely Wounded
Bleeding: Slowed


Attempt to sell the pyramid plan to some poor schmuck.
4: You stop a passing merchant and ask him what he thinks of this new earthquake-resistant structure. He looks at you in an odd manner, glancing at your ruined clothes and says "Hmm... interesting, though I don't really see a use for it. Still, I just finished a really good trade, and I guess you need this more then I do. Very well, I'll take it." He drops some silver at your feet and takes the plans with him.

+2 to Bartering
+10 Silver Coins

this is funny, the only is having any luck healing is me, and I'm doing it the old fashioned way.  Chris what do you think we should do?  I say search the ruins for valuable things... and maybe survivors.
4: You toss some of the collapsed structure aside and move some of the earth blocking your way. You come across a heavily damaged room with some of the merchant's stolen goods lying around, in very poor condition. There are no signs of life, however.

Walk out of the smoking wreck of the building like a badass.
2: You stumble a few feet then trip and fall. The gods laugh at you.

Question and slight complaint: Shouldn't a moderately skilled person with unbroken concentration have three {1}s before dying, rather then two? I understand accidentally casting the wrong spell while trying to parry a sword from a hostile orc, but it's a bit hard to grasp a moderately skilled person with unbroken concentration accidentally carving an exploding rune.
I don't see how you're dying. Unless you somehow wound yourself further, a full recovery seems likely.

Roll to my feet, then dust self off, like a badass.

What was the original quest, again?

Look for mercenary work
5: You see a man in the corner of the market, at a near-empty stall. Wandering over, you ask him if he needs any assistance. He says he is a traveling merchant, and that one of his rivals hired a band of thugs to rob him of his merchandise. As it was outside of the jurisdiction of the city, the guards refuse to help him. He wants you to find the thugs and get his goods back. They should be staying in a hamlet to the southeast.

He claims he had several enchanted items among his wares. If you bring his goods back, he will offer you one of the items as payment.
Yup.  APPEND THIS TO MY PREVIOUS ACTION: BEGIN SORTING GOODS INTO EASILY CARRIABLE BINS.

Learn water/ice magic from my beginner's elemental book.

I should probably have 30 silver, not 20 and I shouldn't have the pyramid plans -- anyway, I'll search for a tailor. I should probably buy some professional-looking apparel.

Roll to my feet, then dust self off, like a badass.
1: You attempt a quick roll but lose your balance and fall into part of the ruins. Luck 2: You hit your head on a sharp rock and suffer severe wounds.
Head: Severely Wounded
Head: Moderate Bleeding


I cast Regeneration on myself.
2: The bleeding worsens slightly. You are suffering from blood loss(-1 to all actions).

4+1-1=4: You cast Regeneration, this time managing to cast the spell correctly. Your remaining wounds are healed, and your left hand grows back again. It's still mangled, though.

+3 to Healing
Left Hand: Mangled

read through my book of the elements and try to learn some type of water/ice magic.
1: You start to page through your book. Luck 4: Your brain hurts. You decide trying to summon ice might not be the best idea in your condition.

I'll search for a tailor. I should probably buy some professional-looking apparel.
2: You wander around the town, but can't find any clothes. Maybe you should try looking outside of the potter's workshops.

HAHA! I win at life! I managed to heal myself! OH YEA!

I purchase a cheap ring, and inscribe a Latent Rune of Cure Light Wounds on it.
