Hmm, I just thought of something. Since we are still in the obsidian room I'm going to asume that my Spire with the Rune of Channeling is still there. I will therefore chane my action a bit.

Carve a Rune of Channeling on the floor and see if I can channel this slowness to the Spire of Channeling, making those demons who just happened to stand on the appearing line sluggish.
See if Earth Spirit can fire off a Stone or Spire incase any demon aims for the sluggish one.

Yeah, I will always assume my actions will work and now I'm assuming that when this work they will connect to each others, making a line. Had I made a third rune I would get a triangle instead.

Thanks! You've inspired me to try drawing a rune of pain around the group, so as to harm anything attacking us. Granted, it'd take a bit more coordination than normal to really work, and we probably don't have the frontliners to hold the line like that anyway, but it's still a nice mental image. Very group photo-ish.

I kept meaning to use runes, but I was never really sure how to use Rune of Pain in battle, you know?

While I don't know how the runes really works when not made as an enchantment I think of them as something of an area of effect. The only thing I would do if I were to make a Rune of Pain on the floor would to limit the area by making a circle around it.

Then again, the way how I imagine runes work may be different from how RNG imagine it.

You know, if that fails, it could end up causing pain to the people inside the rune instead of outside.

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

It wouldn't be our first friendly fire incident, nor would it be my first justified excuse to eat a teammate's soul.

Well yeah, but most spells have a chance to backfire completely when they fail. At least with this one we can probably move out of the way, assuming they don't box us in first.

You're scaring me, but in a way that makes me respect and admire you more instead of fearing you. I don't know quite how that works either.

Start friendly firing? Dermonster died as soon as he left Almar's Keep due to a friendly mishap, by someone who would later die by repeatedly AoEing the party, Sirdiesalot was torn asunder by The Abomination Formerly Known As Dragnar, and I'm not even going to get into Nirur's culinary preferences.

If you want to hang around people who aren't a danger to themselves and others, you've been in the wrong place a looooooong time.

Hey, how was I supposed to know that tampering with forces beyond my comprehension could backfire horribly!? If I knew that they wouldn't be beyond my comprehension!

*Raises a hand*

I've been alive since the beginning too. Heck, I was the one who wrecked a part of the fortress wall too.
