Right. That's why you guys need to bold.
Scavengers [Turn 7]
>.< i was doing so well at the start too.
Ah well.
hm...
Wake up in an overly complicated and hilarious series of coincidences.
You try willing yourself to wake up in a overly complicated series of events. (Luck 3) You do wake up, though the overly complicated and hilarious series of coincidences seems absent.
I continue meditating, trying to remember my spells and abilities.
You know that you should know more than you know, though how you know that you have no clue. (2) You try to meditate to regain this lost knowledge, but you neither remember anything nor know why it's not working. (Luck 2) All these knows and nos are only confusing you even more.
MOAR CHILL. KILL THE PLAYERS
Find miscellaneous junk from the demon army to practice carving runes on. If I find daggers, keep them.
(6+4) You summon a great blizzard with hail the size of wagons. (Luck 6) You completely destroy the keep and kill everyone nearby. You head out of the gates and search the remains of the demon army. (Luck 5) You find a shield, a spear, and 8 daggers made from the odd black metal, all in good condition.
Oh well, I'll search for some sort of magical library, or failing that, at least a wizard.
You begin wandering around the town, looking for anyone or anything that could impart greater arcane knowledge to you. (Luck 5) You find several scrolls in the local temple that look interesting, but despite your best efforts you can find neither an experienced wizard or a library full of magical books. Maybe they're rarer than you thought.
I attempt to cure my scarred arm
Determined to heal your arm completely, you try removing the scars left behind. (3+2) You control the magic almost perfectly (Luck 3) but despite your efforts the scars only shrink a little. It seems that stronger magic would be needed to heal those.
+3 to Healing MagicI'm going to do something stupid but hopefully useful.
I engrave a rune of Power onto my right and left arm with something sharp and clean.
Anyone wanna borrow me a knife of some kind?
In a moment of possible insanity, you decide that if you can enhance your weapons, you can enhance yourself as well! (4+2-2) You find a long knife and begin carving a rune of power into your skin. The pain is immense, but your skill with runecrafting lets you focus on the task at hand. (Luck 3) You manage to carve the complete rune into your skin, which glows with a faint blue light before fading.
+2 to Runecrafting
Right Arm: Rune of PowerLoot the dead! Preferably for human-sized iron armor and gold coins!
You head out onto the battlefield and look for usable armor and money. (Luck 1) The demon's armor doesn't fit, and for reasons you can't comprehend they don't seem to use gold currency like the rest of the world. What is wrong with them, it's like they only care about the endless torment and suffering of humanity.
head out to the battle field and begin hack-mutilation-surgery on the dead demons, collecting blood, horns, hearts, and anything my alchemy book might say is useful from a demon.
You head out and begin cutting up the demons. (5) Your book doesn't mention anything about demons, but you figure you can experiment a bit. You fill your 2 remaining vials with a black ichor from the demons, but they seem to lack both hearts and horns.
