We can't fight if we're dead. We should do it when we are not in such a bad position.

Yes, that's a good point...
How about we get Colin to a pretty safe distance, and fight with our powers from afar? I can try to weaponize ranged sort of things (rock->shuriken, stick->javelin) or something to help out. I really think we need to take these guys out, and while this is pretty meta, I don't think the GM would let us have so many weapon powers, then throw enemies at us just to force us to run away.

(Bad position? It looks like chadlass controls MANY "loose threads" meaning the players are spread out. all of us are here, we can crush them.)

Alright colin, one of us just turned your hands into weapons(lets hope you can reverse that cheddarius...) so go help markus, these guys will beat him, but you should be stronger now. Also They are afraid of you, just trust me on that one.

We should at least weaken them from a distance.

Good idea, Dragnar, excellent implementation.

Yeah, let's use our fury and earth attacks from a distance. The others can meatshield, especially with Spikey's new swordhand. Once they're almost down, we can join in.

I say this again, Willfor. This game is a truly incredible idea. To hurl the players into an unknown universe, leave them bewildered, but slowly let them find the truth... thrust these powers upon them, and force them to band together for the common good... By god, this is surely one of the finest games I've seen in a while, and the immersion factor is truly excellent.

Listen, you're important to us. Through you, we can keep Tradus alive. If you want to save your world, you have to run at them, but be careful. We'll help you out.

Tarran, use your earth wave, we have to fend them off! We can't just run, or they'll start destroying Tradus!

Woah, I can't see the look in their eyes, but the two people just stepped back a little bit. I think Markus is more confident. His dog isn't going to have an open casket though...

Magic Throw_pebbles_at_lightning_speed_at_enemies

This part is hard to describe. It's like, beams of light are coming off of me, hitting the ground, and the ground is breaking apart. Then the broken ground gets hit by green light, and are flying towards the two people. Both of them are dodging a lot of them, but at least a couple of bigger pieces of rock have hit. Markus managed to get out of the way, and he's standing to the side.

Those two are looking for ways to get out of the moving rocks.

(So they can dodge super well, and shoot lasers. Oh, and Cheddarius: I think colin is a PC, we are players, not sure though)

Keep trying colin, it looks like the fast one will need distracted before you can hit him, so aim for the other one for now.

info preeli

Great job, guys. I don't know what to do, myself... Dragnar, is paralysis a feeling? That could work.
Do you guys have any suggestions of how I can help?

Colin, grab some of those weapons and throw them at the enemies. Make sure to avoid any spears of light they throw at you. Your best bet might be to zigzag toward them and try to cut them down at close range.

Huh, I don't really seem to be as afraid anymore. This is weird.

Ahh! Giant beam of energy just shot out of me into that wall behind them! Feels like another one is coming up too, but I don't think it's ready. There's a giant crack in the bricks. This whole warehouse is brick... Is it going to be safe to be in here much longer?

Woah, the table in front of me just ... It's like it became one giant weapon! A handle came out from one of it's ends, and all its edges went serrated, and its legs are now very pointy. I don't think I can lift it though?

Uh, I'm not good at throwing. I've picked up a couple of the spike generic swords, and now I'm zigzagging. You guys don't mind if I use the tables for cover? Markus is fighting them. It looks like his magic shield is keeping them at bay...

Does that have something to do with what I feel building in my chest? A moment ago it felt like there was another couple of seconds before it was ready to go again, but now it feels like it's going to need a minute to get ready. It's still as powerful as before, but I think whatever you just did needs it to build up a little?
