Ordering the carriage to do something (attack, move, etc.) would take your action, yes. Having it remain still... Hmm, I would probably let you take a normal action at a -1 skill penalty for being distracted. Otherwise you can either attempt to gain full control(were it would become your minion as normal) or release it and do something else.
Nirur attempts to frost the abomination, (1) but due to being distracted by the carriage, is unable to summon the proper magic. (Luck 4) Fortunately there seem to be no negative side-effects; He simply can't summon the magic. Unperturbed, he reaches into his robe for the tin of salve he forgot he had, and applies it to his wounds.
Help Nirur frost doomgnar. SUPER EPIC FREEZE TEAM POWAH BABY
Hoping to succeed were Nirur failed, (2+3) Virroken creates a giant sphere of ice. (Luck 4) He manages to hit the correct target this time.
+2 to ElementalismCast Curative Aura 3: Revenge Of The Curative Aura
Desperate to fix his mistake, Cheddarius tries some unorthodox magic. (1+1) The spell doesn't work correctly at all, (Luck 2) and now everyone is bleeding from their ears.
Ooooh yeah! Who's the man? Golem Svadi is the man!
I try my luck once more to see if I can keep control of the Giant Earth Elemental (GEE for short) permanently while Golem Svadi (GS for short) try out its new body by shooting an arrow towards Doom Dragnar.
Control 1-2+2: The elemental breaks free from any semblance of control Kin had over it, and flies into a berserk rampage.
Control 4+2: Kin manages to retain control over his spirit-golem, however.
+1 to SummoningUSE THE OTHER SALVE ON NIRUR
(There is one in his inventory, RNG.)
You try to heal Nirur with his own salve, (4) but notice he has already used it on himself. (Luck 6) Instead you take one of
your own healing salves that you hadn't looted recently and use it. Man, Nirur really owes you big after this.
well I certainly hope that effect sticks around, anyways.
Draw my iron knife, pour holy water on it, then attack the hellhound.
SLICE AND DICE!!!!
You draw your knife and sip it into the holy water, then strike out at Dragnar. (1+3) Despite still feeling somewhat woozy from your sickness, the tonic you just used helps you in your fight. (RTD 4-1) Dragnar tries to avoid your attack, but burdened down by Virroken's Frost spell is unable to completely evade. Your knife hits the creature's tough scales and, to your surprise, melts right through them like acid. Maybe there is something to this whole holy water thing after all.
+3 to DaggersNirur's skeleton attacks the hound, (3) delivering a weak strike. (RTD 3-1) Despite this, the hound is unable to avoid the attack.
Kin's spirit-golem aims it's crossbow, (4-1) Firing at Dragnar. (RTD 5-1) Aware of the creature this time, the abomination manages to throw itself out of the way.
Close to death, the abomination flies into a blooded frenzy. It lashes out at Cheddarius, (1+2) thrashing wildly. (RTD 2) Caught off-guard, Cheddarius is hit by the blow and is heavily wounded.
The hellhound also turns to attack Cheddarius, (1) attacking with a maddened frenzy. (RTD 2) Cheddarius sort of manages to stagger away quickly.
Unburdened by thought, emotion and even instinct, the berserk elemental attacks a random target. He happens to pick Cheddarius as his victim, (6+1) lashing out with a colossal arm. (RTD 5) He attempts to dodge, but the enraged elemental clips his shoulder, knocking him to the ground, which gives the elemental all the chance it needs to finish him off.
