Try to absorb or learn or even gain powers from the artifact.


I haven't gotten one good roll yet >_< Hopefully the +1 will help me.

Turn 4 (how do you change the title of a thread?)

Quote from: Flintus10
I will try to gain powers from the cloud.
[5] You decide to test the power you can feel coming from the cloud. Concentrating on it you manage to produce a massive gale which then condenses into a small area. Suddenly, the wind speaks! "How may I serve you master?"
minor elemental servant gained! (It has +2 to stealth, but -2 to all physical actions)
novice wind mage gained!
dabbling summoner gained!

Quote from: Rashilul
Burn the world.
(you are gonna have a bit of a handicap here, no one else can learn fire magic in this plane, and yours can't accomplish anything massive without a 5)
[4] You create a fireball and throw it  at the river. You then realize the foolishness of trying to burn a world composed of water... but at least you got some practice!
(2/4 exp toward no adjective fire magic)

Quote from: Jervous
Try to absorb or learn or even gain powers from the artifact.
[6 + 1] You feel the need to build! [6 + 1(wrench)] gathering various items from around the island (who knows where that forge came from) you set to work, mumbling about your precious...
(if you get a 3 or higher next turn your artifact will be complete!)

Quote from: stonemt
... as at this point i have no clue whats where ill just snag whatever is floating at me...
[3] As the dark ring floats around the room you snatch it and put it on. You resist the urge to laugh maniclaly.
dabbling dark magic gained!

Quote from: Diakron
take water artifact
[6] As you clasp the glass orb in your hand, you feel a tidal wave of power emanating from it. In fact, the water level on the island begins to rise as the water heeds the call of the artifact! You have two turns before the island is completely underwater!
novice water magic gained!


(you won't usually gain skill so quickly, but the artifacts will boost the rate you master their powers)

Yes, while a magical construct, you still function in much the same way as everyone else (gotta get the energy to maintain that magic somewhere).
You might be able to gain that ability though.

Keep building my precious.
yeah... you are currently turning your artifact into a weapon. I forgot to mention, what type of weapon do you want?

Quote from: Flintus10

[4] Attempting to increase your control over the artifact's powers, you concentrate on making your elemental more tangible. The elemental slowly begins to grow, while still almost invisible, and not very strong, it can fight effectively by focusing gale-force winds on anything touching it.
(physical action penalty reduced to -1, eliminated for combat)
(2/4 toward no adjective air mage)
novice summoner gained!

Quote from: Rashilul
Attempt to swim to the village/boats.
[3] You attempt to swim to the village, but get exhausted before you get there. Luckily, your medallion created a large cloud of steam when submerged, and one of the boats is heading in your direction. You will be picked up next turn.

Quote from: Jervous

[5] Well, your run of bad luck seems to be over :o
Leech emerges from his workshop (where on earth did that thing come from?) carrying a glowing flail of truly masterful design. The handle is composed of wood salvaged from a small shipwreck and is covered in runes that even Leech doesn't seem to understand. The chain is made of obsidian (must be a volcanic island), and the spiked ball on the end is made from the earth artifact, Leech still isn't sure what kind of metal it is, but estimates it to be 5 times stronger than iron...
(artifact flail gained, you can name it whatever you want. It has +1 to attack, +1 to hit, and +1 to all earth magic, further magical powers must be discovered)
legendary blacksmith gained! (will auto-succeed at blacksmithing, rolls for quality)
runesmith gained!

[6] You attempt to harness the powers of your ring, sensing something responding to it's power you increase the flow of energy. The waters near the island begin to look decidedly more menacing...
novice dark mage gained!

Quote from: Diakron
stop the water from rising
[5] Panicking, you manage to shut of the energy flowing from the ring, the water stops rising and you even think you could control it now!
water mage gained! (+1 to rolls of 1 and 2)
tidal manipulation gained! (basically, you can act like Moses and slowly move water however you like in non-combat situations)

Zombie carp! 3 undead fish crawl out of the water, heading straight for daemon!


How does everyone think I'm doing so far? Not sure how well balanced you all are, but that's inevitable in a game as random as this.
