Sorry!

I go to the battlements, and prepare to hail down fire on the accursed Demons.

The demons are here! [Turn 3]

Cast Cure Minor Wounds my arm
...

Wow.

You try and heal the damage you inflicted on yourself. (1+1=2) Your feeble attempts to repair the damage only end up making it worse. (Luck 2) Your arm is now infected, and in critical condition.

I go on top of a wall or tower, and watch the advancing enemies, trying to identify commanders to target once they get closer.
You dutily head to the keep's walls, prepared to help fend off the demon army (6) You get to the top and begin scanning the enemy ranks for their leaders. (Luck 2) You fail to determine who is the leader, when all of the demons have sharp spikes, and fangs, and blood-caked talons... and... blood... Uhhhh... *HURG* You throw up over the side of the wall.

I thank the wind elemental for helping me in my time of need. I head up to the battlements, whilst trying to levitate small rocks around my form with wind magic.
You head up to the walls and prepare to face down the demons. (6) You pick up several small rocks and throw them into the air. (Luck 5) Despite controlling rocks traditionally being earth magic, your wind magic manages to keep them aloft as they whirl around you.

+3 to Elementalism


Kinseen, I've got a rune of Ice, which is kinda a elemental spell in rune form. Wanna try swapping rune spells or forming a new rune?

If Kin agrees, practice rune-stuff with him, teaching him Ice and Warding runes.
If Kin doesn't, practice with daggers.

You begin to talk about the runes you know. (4+2=6) You blow through the material quite quickly, a little too quickly perhaps. (Luck 4) Kin barely manages to keep up with you, but he does learn how to use the Rune of Ice.

+3 to Runecrafting


I'll read my summoning book, trying to find/summon a magical creature that is knowledgeable about runes.

I'll swap spells with anyone who had knowledge of the same schools as me and agrees. More spells for all!
You page through your book, looking for information on magical creatures. (2+2=4) You don't find much information, as your book only seems to cover basic knowledge. (Luck 5) You do learn more about summoning, however.

+2 to Summoning

I glady accept Virrokens offer and teach him Rune of Power and Rune of Durability. I also search the book for useable runes against demons, such as a Rune of Combustion.
You train with Virroken, learning what little he knows about runes. (4+2) You begin teaching him yourself, and like Virroken, blow through the material pretty fast. (Luck 1) He doesn't pick up what you're saying though; In fact, you've only managed to confuse him.

+2 to Runecrafting

Barge through to the demons, and stand in a ready position, sword drawn. "En garde!"

You prepare to fight against the demonic menace. (?) You rush out of the front gates and brandish your sword, ready to fight the demons.

>Mix up some healing salves, saving 1 pouch of ash, 1 vial of water, 1 vail of oil, and head to a church.

You begin working on making a 'healing' potion, and work on mixing the ingredients together. (1+2=3) You accidentally drop the solution, which shatters. (Luck 1) The solution explodes, engulfing you in flame and damaging your equipment.

Sorry!

I go to the battlements, and prepare to hail down fire on the accursed Demons.
You walk up to the battlements, preparing to fight the demons. (1) Hmm... that's odd. Where are they? You lean over the bastion to try and see them, but lose your balance. (Luck 6) You barely prevent yourself from falling off the wall, though you tumble backwards into a supply crate and know everything to the ground.

The demons have reached the city! They attack next turn!

Etch rune of warding on ground where the demons will be when they break in. These things only affect enemies, right?

I Tell my wind elemental to shoot a concentrated stream of oxygen at the Demons. I cast torch into the stream. This should create an intense blazing flamethrower that i shall henceforth refer to as 'Hellfire'

I'll place a rune of warding on the main gates, hoping to slow their attack.

Go to a church, then fill 5 of my vials with holy water.  Wash off clothes and burns, if non-scared water is present.

I knew it.
Cure Minor Wounds on my arm, inevitably killing myself. Cry out, shouting "I'm too young to die!" as I fall to the ground.

Since I have no time to do some more experiments I get to the keeps northen wall and starts throwing Stone at any demon that is too close to the walls. If the spell require stones from the vincity I will only use what I can find down the ground and not from the walls, otherwise keep using Stone until I feel tired.

I'll give Acanthus until tomorrow to post. If he doesn't post by then, I guess I'll just drop him.
