Surely chucking the combustive rock would work better?

I'm also not sure why I didn't realize this earlier, but using something I summoned as an arm is truly an atrocious idea, given the apparent ease at which it could be dispelled...

Regardless, I'll toss my rusty knife at the shadow.

I was saving that for an epic, fatal failure on a mundane action. Eh ... sacrifices.

My real action is to throw my explosive rock at the shadow.

Wow that sucks.  Triple ones.  Okay, that's pretty much an instant death sentence.

Ummm... Call for help.  Will my body back into it's proper shape.  Because I'm super tough, you know that.  Injuries ARE NOTHING IN THE FACE OF MY MIGHT

Dwarves don't climb trees, silly.  Even I know that.

Meditate on earth magic, restoring myself and replenishing my powers.
5: You sit on the ground and meditate. After a while, you feel... connected with the land around you, and everything becomes clearer. Simpler. You feel that using earth magic will be much easier in the future.

New Ability: Earth Affinity
Regardless, I'll toss my rusty knife at the shadow.
6: You chuck your knife at the shadow, letting it fly so hard it slices your hand on the way! Luck 3:  Your hand is cut open, and blue blood spills out. RTD 1: the knife slashes the shadow right through, but it seems nearly unfazed.

+4 to Throwing

My real action is to throw my explosive rock at the shadow.
4: You grab the rock and toss it at the shadow, careful not to activate the rune early. RTD 1: It hits and explodes! The shadow is consumed in fire as the grease burns, and when the flame dies down noting but ash remains.

+3 to Throwing


UTILISE MY SUPERDWARVENLY TOUGH NATURE TO INSTANTLY HEAL MY INJURIES
6: You are a dwarf! You do not bleed! You fight! How can you fight while bleeding! You can't! At least not very well. So you shall not bleed! At least that's what you think. Thinking doesn't seem to help the situation much.

*Heh... heheh... you... amuse me, dwarf.*

"Who's there!?!"

*I have been... watching you, for some time...*

"Show yourself!"

*If I did that... You would be driven insane... Not much use to me then, are you? No... I think I shall remain hidden. You on the other hand, shall fight. And you will receive...*

Head: Healed
Right Arm: Healed
Left Arm: Healed
Ribs: Healed
Spine: Healed
Bleeding: Stopped


*Power.*

New Ability: Restoration

Enter the temple, taking note which way I entered and if there is any side passages, make for what looks like a central chamber.

Alright, well... I guess I'll just go with the whole "Piss Off Armok" thing.

FUUUUUU-- ARMOK
4: Cursing to this new entity, you swear that you will not fight for him. Though he makes no reply, you notice the atmosphere seems to darken.
I draw my rapier and enter the cave.
2: You reach down to draw your rapier from your sheath. Wait a minute... it's not there! What happened to it?!? You run around for 10 minutes trying to find it your lost rapier before realizing, you were already holding it in your hand. You drew it several turns ago!
Enter the temple, taking note which way I entered and if there is any side passages, make for what looks like a central chamber.
4: You pass the guardian and proceed into the temple. Several passages branch out into various rooms, but they don't seem to contain anything interesting and proceed into the heart of the temple. After a while you come to a circular room with completely smooth, almost polished walled. Various gems and crystals line the walls, and the floor is slightly depressed. In the exact center stands a man wearing armor and wielding a sword and shield. He makes no move.
Retrieve my knife (if possible) and enter the cave.
6: You dash past the shadow and run after your knife. Finding it several yards away, you reach down to grab it, but as you pick it up you scratch your hand on a thorny plant. Luck 2: The wound burns slightly.

I cast Cure Nonexistant Minor Wounds on my ally, then enter the cave.

I hate when I lose important things in my hand. It is a silly thing to do, and yet too easy to do.

I was going more for the whole jump up and actually start fighting that shadow thing.  'Cause what else is a dwarf supposed to do?

Can we change my previous action to "shocked silence"?  No need to reroll.
