Thrive!
The elves attempt to survive. [5] They do splendidly, no longer seeming like they'll crash any moment. Disaster [1] Oh, dear. There weren't that many cracks, who'd have thought one would open up right beneath them? Catch Edges [2] They're falling. And screaming.
Hunt!
The beast on Hoz-Tar attempts to survive. [6] It's now sprinting frantically like a dog chasing a ball. Disaster [6] It somehow manages to get on the right side of an opening rift, letting the force carry it onward. What the hell? Hunt [1] It follows a false scent in the wrong direction, getting further from the soon-to-be pancake elves.
Thrive!
The fish attempt to survive. [4] They do well, continuing to multiply and mutate. Disaster [3] They're a bit edgy from the changes wrought, however. Mutation [1] Several varieties degrade back into their original forms. How boring. Deep Food [2] They STILL refuse to acknowledge the bounty down there.
Thrive!
The elves on Agamemnoid attempt to survive. [4] They're fine. Turnips [4] They find a few more turnips and swords, covering their food needs for the moment. Breeding [2] They're not so amorous, however.
KILL!
Frothing at the mouth, the dwarves rush off to see some elves so they can butcher them on sight. Hunting [2] They have no experience or ability in tracking whatsoever, so they're just looking around at random. Turnips [3] They at least notice a handful of turnips and swords in their pointless exploration.
Thrive!
The plants try to grow amidst the muck. [4] They make progress, becoming closer to actual saplings than large shoots.
....?
The elves on the crystal moon try to figure out what now. [4] They begin to hatch a plan to hurl themselves screaming out of orbit, thousands of feet through the air, onto the blue planet beneath them. Elven brilliance at work! Turnips [5] They manage to gather up several turnips and swords in the meantime. Farming [1] Their attempts at using swords to pulverize the crystal into soil so they can plant the turnips ends up turned around somehow. A few broken swords later, they give up and eat the turnips.
Just a flesh wound
Injured, the beast on the crystal moon nonetheless struggles on. [4] It proceeds at a reasonable pace. Hunt [5] It catches the scent and finds itself right on top of the elves! If it weren't for those injuries, it'd have been able to attack by now.
Something about that glow...
The elves on the crystal planet try to survive. [1] They die agonizing glowing half-deaths, and are now lying around, looking emaciated and dying. Turnips [1] They manage to find weapons to kill themselves with. This planet is off to a
grim start.
Most elves die on crystal planet.Survive
The elves on Karus attempt to survive. [3] They're a bit tired and hungry, and it's kind of cold out, but they manage to meet back with the others. Tolerance [1] They promptly scream and declare the modified elves abominations, drawing cold steel and readying themselves to fight. Diffuse [1] They scream in rage and charge their former brethren.
Survive
The modified elves on Karus attempt to survive. [3] They're sort of cold, but make it back to the others. Tolerance [1] They scoff in disgust and declare the normal elves unfit weaklings, drawing cold steel and readying themselves to fight. Diffuse [4] They try to walk away, but their brethren charge them.
Go Time!
The elves attack!
Elf One vs Modified Elf One: Elf Attack [2] vs Mod Elf Dodge [1] The elf flails its sword across the haughty scaled elf's chest. It cries out in surprise and pain, but its scales absorb the brunt of the assault. Mod Elf Attack [2] vs Elf Dodge [1] Assuming its foe would drop instantly (or perhaps just being an elf), the elf is astonished when the scaled horror retaliates, hacking into the unarmored elf. It cries out in pain but continues fighting.
Elves Two and Three vs Modified Elf Two: Elf Attacks [3][6] vs [1][2] The elves strike true, carving deep into their former comrade. It cries out in pain, but its scales protect it from death. Mod Elf Flee [6] vs Elf Chase [1][6] It flees for the water, knowing its squishy brethren can't follow very deep. One pursuer trips over its own feet, while the other keeps frantic pace.
...swim?
The beast in space attempts to head someplace with meat. [6] It's now hurtling at comet-like speed towards inhabitable worlds.
...swim?
The elves around Aphronze attempt to escape. [5] They make nice progress, though to what nobody's certain.
...swim?
The elves that used to be around Gamthra try to make it someplace solid. [6] They manage to get themselves hurtling towards the ground of [Agamemnoid] Agamemnoid. Hopefully they'll land in "water."
Hidehidehidehidehide
The elves on the ukulele attempt to hide from the beast. [1] By hiding UNDER it! BRILLIANT!
Oooooh, delivery!
The beast attempts to feast on the soft meat beneath it. [6] It's now choking from trying to cram multiple whole elves down its throat at once. Oddly, the elves don't seem happy about this either.
The cattle!
The worms attempt to save their precious cattle. [5] They masterfully dislodge the elves and wriggle away before the beast can recover.
