Walk around Schalade, asking if anyone has seen suspicious activities, while trying to pierce the viel surrounding the disturbance.
4: You continue to look around the city, asking around for any information. Mostly you draw a few weird looks, but one fellow asks "This is involving magic, yes? Than wouldn't it be better to ask around the Academy?"

+3 to Persuasion

Reclaim my rapier, then deliver a coup d'grace with the blade. The one that's still not in my inventory.
6+1=6: WHAM! You slash the demon's head off for good measure. The magic that summoned it destabilized, and it slowly shimmers and disappears. You pick up your rapier.

+4 to Blade Using

Triumphantly strike a heroic pose on top of the slaughtered demon if it's dead by my turn. If it isn't, attempt to aid Nirur in dispatching it.
2: You jump ontop of the non-existent demon, tumbling to the ground.
Dwarven Victory dance. SOCKS.
3: Wohoo! You won! Excellent! You swing your axe around and break some of the incense stands the old man was using. After settling down a bit, you start wondering what to do next.

+1 to Breaking Stuff!

Onto the next order of business, I suppose. I doubt people will let a blue dude rule a country/city-state/castle, so I'll summon some clothes to completely cover up all of my blue-ness. Gloves/scarf/etc.

Head to the magic academy, and see if the source seems to emmitnating from it, also ask some of the guards if they have seen any unusual activity.

6+3=6: You summon a giant heap of clothes that spins around you and covers you in a myriad of fabrics. Scarfs, jackets, capes and cloaks encase you. It is no longer evident that you're a void marauder, but people might think you are a cloth golem instead.
+4 to Summoning
Open the treasure chest!
2: In the far corner of the room, you see a chest coated in oil. You try to open it up, but you can't get a grasp and don't manage to open it.
I search for the crystal we came here for.
4: While Z. Chris struggles with the treasure chest, you start heading down the opposite cavern, seeking the depths of this cave. You stumble across another room, filled with bones... it looks like you've found the remains of the old man's other victims. A crystal sits in the center of the room, but something seems off...

2: Most of the students in the courtyard just give you unusual looks. The source of the disturbance is still veiled, as well.

(geez, whats up with all these 2s and 3s...)

Ha! I found it at last! Power is mine! ... Yet caution is the better part of valor.

I draw my rapier and carefully search the room for traps.

Go straight to the head mages office and demand to know about the disturbance!
1: The head mage looks at you quizzically. "I have no idea what you're talking about"
"Argh! Don't play dumb with me! You must have noticed something! Wild magic is being siphioned out of the earth... and it's originating from this academy!" you yell at him.
"Oh."
"Oh? Oh?!? The earth is being poisoned and all you have to say is Oh?!?"
"Well... if you know about that... I guess I'll have to eliminate you."

He snaps his fingers and a secret passage opens. Another mage steps out, and he casts a spell that seals all the entrances shut.

Ha! I found it at last! Power is mine! ... Yet caution is the better part of valor.

I draw my rapier and carefully search the room for traps.
3: You carefully enter the room and begin looking around. Nothing on the floor... Nope, nothing on the walls...

You turn around just in time to see a giant creature has assembled itself from the bones surrounding you. You barely get out of the way as it delivers a powerful blow, cracking the wall where your head used to be.

Break the lock.
4+2=6: With a mighty yell you SMASH the treasure chest to pieces! Some of the treasure inside was damaged, but out of what survived you see:

An axe.
A sword.
Needles.
Couple potions.
A book.
Some scrolls.
And a heart. Ugh.

+6 to Breaking Stuff!


I'll head back to Schalade.

3: You blunder out of the cave and start heading in the direction you think Schalade is in. Unfortunately your massive amounts of clothes make it hard for you to tell if you're going in the right direction...

Trim down the outer layers of cloth. Try to make my appearance more 'human' and less 'cloth golem' if at all possible.
