Your bump did not go in vain.
I have returned from the medicine man and feeling better.
On with the show!
BTW, everyone seems to get bad rolls when it comes to magic.
EPISODE 8Open my eyes, let go of Kirby, Create an illusion around me, so that I seem not frightened, and my voice sounds confident and intimidating.
Then, say: How dare you, puny old mo-beep-ker, to threat US, the mighty demon lords of Underdark?!?
[4] You slowly open your eyes to reveal that all you can see is black and white and no grey in between. What you see is black. with 2 figures in battle poses, outlined in white. Kyrby and Ha'toki are also white outlines against the blackness.
Recognizing the Old Man's face, you start to throw curses at him.
Aww hell no. I prepare to dodge anything he sends at me and hit him with a bolt of lightning. Preemptive Defibrillator, bitch!
[1] You gather electricity around your fingers, but they suddenly discharge! [dmg:2] Sparks cross all over your hands and your hands start to involuntary twitch and flex.
[3] Your hand calms down a bit and they feel numb now. Moving them feels weird.
Burn that old man from the inside of him
[1] You see the situation Sargoth is in and decide to help him. You concentrate on setting the old mans organs on fire...feeling the need to kill with a gruesome death...to hear the dying screams of... Kyrby?!?
Yes, it is Kyrby that runs with screams of anguish; the Old Man unaffected.
[2]Well, at the very least you get to study the effects of your spells.
Kyrby falls off the chair and starts rolling on the floor with no end to his suffering and screams. Eventually he stops rolling and blood gushes from his mouth and, when that too stops, he drops down into the heap. Motionless.
Old Man
[6] The Old Man squats and tightens his leg and then launches himself into the air, his pec muscles sparkling. Mid-air he throws his axes at incredible speed with all his arm's might at Sargoth who is unable to dodge it [Dmg:2]
One of the axes misses and embed it self up to the hilt into the dark floor.
The other, however, strikes true into the chest of Sargoth.
It pierces through his thick robes; it pierces through Sargoth's magic book; it pricks his skin. The Old Man, having expended his axes, is now slowly falling through the air towards the darkness floor. Vulnerable (+1 to attack hit chance).
