Soul Feast Cure on Marcus.
You try to make your newfound abilities actually useful, (4+2) healing the gravely injured Marcus. (Luck 6) The spell hits him at full blast, healing him rapidly but also taxing him both mentally and physically. Being brought back from the brink of death in the span of a couple seconds can do that to a person. Some of the residual energies cure Nirur as well.
+3 to Healingow... .can someone de-curse sometime, also I think we need to feed the crystals energy to open the stairs.
Back away from the stiars and try and focus healing magic on myself from prayer's to either heal myself or remove my curse.
You decide that maybe you should try and remove your curse. (3) You pray to Madantum seeking his blessing, (Luck 1-1) but all you get in reply is an angry grumbling. It seems Madantum isn't too pleased with you at the moment for some reason.
+2 to InvocationsTEAM SHOULD MOVE FORWARD BEFORE RNG DECIDES TO BE NICE TO US.
Drop frost armor for now because steep -4 penalty is steep.
Learn how to form runes with very tightly controlled ice.
It's actually only -2 penalty for the ice armor; the other -2 was because you lose 50% of your bonus for casting and advanced spell. Anyway:
You try to shape runes using ice. (6+1) A wave of ice erupts from your hands (Luck 4) and slams against the wall. It seems you went a little overboard.
Oh wow that was close
I take a Healing Salve, if Nirur's Cure doesn't do the job well enough (leaves me at moderately wounded).
You utilize a healing salve, taking care of the rest of your wounds. (1) Shortly after, you fall into unconsciousness. (Luck 6) Fortunately this unconsciousness is probably just because you're weak from almost dying.
I really want to heal you Arcanthus, but I fear for luck backlash. If you still want a heal just give me the go.
Heal Marcus if he want me to, or touch a crystal again and think 'UP'. GS struggles itself free from its fleshy prison.
You approach the crystals (4) and pour energy into them. (Luck 3+1) The sigil at the center of the room flares, and you begin floating up to the hole in the ceiling. Virroken, Nirur, Marcus and Aarchan follow you just because they've been sitting at the bottom of the tower for long enough. As the group clears the top ledge, they find themselves in another large circular room, only this one is far less empty; shelves of books line the walls, tables crowd the room with various apparatus whoes functions you can't even imagine strewn over them, and over to one side, a large fancy desk with an emaciated-looking man sitting behind it. He is pouring over a piece of parchment, and seems to pay no attention to the group.
