Turn 12: Foreseeable ConclusionsI draw my sword, point it at the gate and shout "Onward, my incompetent teammates!". And begin walking through the gate, and then eastward westward.
[4][Luck 2] Outnumbered by your companions' desires to go north, you at least manage to hook them west a bit... right into a demon patrol. Oops?
i summon maxicaxi's extremities back onto him, assuming what i think is happening actualy is, i also summon a pegasus to serve as my mount, dismissing the earthmaker as i wont be arround to controll it
[5] You dismiss the earthmaker politely, and it waves goodbye before evaporating into wispy smoke. [3+1][Luck 2] Concluding that you have no idea how to summon a pegasus, and realizing you lack the necromantic knowledge to summon Max's limbs from the grip of such a powerful spell, you attempt to summon a long-lasting but mundane horse. The horse appears fine, but it's skitterish and runs off. Irritating, considering it'd just go back to where it was on death anyway.
+1 Earth Magicre route the spell so that it protects me
[2-2][Luck 6] Your attempts to wrap the spell around you like a shield causes it to instantly swallow you whole. Luckily, you remain perfectly preserved in suspended animation. Not that you're aware of this at the moment, being frozen in time.
Completely entombed, effectively dead.Heal Maxicaxi as best I can, then begin movement towards the north!
[1+1][Luck 5] Your efforts fail to affect the situation, except to give Max a brief feeling of hope that someone's helping out, and to assure you that healing him wouldn't make a difference- he's not being injured, he's being... banished?
I agree to go north. While we're resting, I train in casting two Lightning Blasts in a turn.
[2][Luck 2] You utterly fail to produce dual lightning bolts. Plus you singe your hands a bit. Ow.
Singed HandsFollow the rest. Sullenly. Also, keep an eye out for any interesting things that look like they'd be helpful in Alchemy.
[2][Luck 6] You discover no alchemical reagents of any kind on your journey north. You do find a skeleton laden with loot. What the hell.

[5][Luck 6] You do a magnificent job of sucking water straight out of the air and soil, coalescing it into your hands. You can't control it very precisely, however, so you wonder how good it would be in combat.
+3 Water MagicNew Spell: Water DrawNow Apprentice Water MageAs the ground turns red and parched, a pack of 6 demons notice you and begin barreling forward. This happens after any looting you may wish to do, however.
Bland, pale, skinny-looking fellow with brown hair and eyes.
