Apologize for all the deaths and ask the pirates about this world.
[3] The pirates decide to humor you, you could be worth more to them alive than dead, besides, you aren't going anywhere anytime soon. "This realm was peaceful up until a few years ago. Then the dread pirate Deadbeard arrived. He sails the seven skies, leaving naught but destruction in his wake, tis' his flag that you saw here, and he is the one who destroyed this place. We be but a few of the many that have turned to piracy to survive, lootin the towns Deadbeard has destroyed. An if ye want to live, ye will serve on me crew, and help us to be gettin a new airship. Even if ye were to defeat us, there would be more, an eventually, yer luck will run out..."
luck:[1]: the lightning staff is drained of power! Your only defense against the pirates is quickly fading!
Begin crafting my spectacular golden crown in my workshop.
[Legendary:2+1(plans)] You get to work on your amazing crown, grabbing as many gold bars and gems as you can get your hands on. Before long it is finished, it isn't as epic as you envisioned it, partially because you couldn't find and cut gems, but it is still easily a *crown*.
*crown* forged!(high value, impressive)
(one note: you are legendary, you won't face repercussions no matter what you use in your creations. No stinking "economy" for you!)
have them show me to the elves and then MAKE some graves (^_^X)
[5] They take you to the site of the even retreat, where SDAD0Wdump and Abaddon are currently locked in combat. And look! Abaddon was kind enough to make the graves for you! There are about 1-2 dozen elf corpses in the area, ready for use.
ask a dwarf to take me to their towercap stores
[5] The king sends a servant to escort you to the towercap stores. There are a fair number of the strange mushroom-trees left for now, but there are clearly not enough for a fortress this size. (this world is slightly more realistic than DF, furniture wears out and needs replaced eventually) You would estimate about 50 logs are left, and this fortress contains hundreds of dwarves.
Holding the barrier, I tell the nearest elven leader to spread word throughout the elven lands that elven trade routs must be re-established, lest the destruction here be released on the rest of them as there is only so much I can stop.
If he/she makes the slightest snarky retort though I drop the barrier and watch them burn.
[4] You quickly tell the remaining elven druids that things like this will continue until they reopen trade routes with the dwarven civilizations. The panicked druids inform you that they can't, even if they wanted to! They can't spare the resources for trade, they are too busy trying to fight off a blight in the heart of the woods, one that twists nature into something... sinister. The blight is a place where the trees themselves attack travelers, and mutated animals roam the land. Every druid they can spare is working to contain the spread, and they have no one left to sing wood from the trees(without harming them of course, that would be barbaric!).
As soon as they finish talking, Abaddon howls, and his felhounds shatter the anti-magic field!
Make some demon noises, and try to free myself from the barrier. if i succeed pin him down with my hellhounds make a fire rope and bind him to it. and Ride away as hard as i can
[5] You command your felhounds to charge, shattering this accursed cage! They head straight for SDAD0Wdump, [3] who just barely manages to evade being trampled, but you are now between him and his (very vulnerable) chariot of the gods!
novice demon commander gained!(gives bonuses to giving your demons reckless commands)
I sit down on the wreckage for a moment and concentrate on creating an area clear of dust near me. An "eye of the storm" sort of space.
[1] You try to gain sme control over your haywire telekinetics, but instead only intensify the problem. The cloud contracts, making it even harder to see, and it no longer impairs the vision of those in the area.
(telekinetic dust cloud now always gives -1 to any action involving sight, instead of rolling for it's effect)
