Cure Moderate Wounds on Ochita

HmH · « **Reply #721 on:** December 04, 2010, 03:20:24 am »

Isn't it under the Plant Control rune? I think it is. I'll go train my dagger skill on it, then.
Attack the boss with my dagger. Instead of making a horrible mistake, throw a Fireball at the plant.

Sadly, that's the flare. The beanstalk is quite unruned.

Flagrarus · « **Reply #723 on:** December 04, 2010, 05:59:19 am »

I'm considering putting another Command Rune on it, but remember what happened last time I did that?

Draw a Rune of Withering on the beanstalk.

HmH, maybe you could set it on fire? And then wolfchild could Empower the fire.

HmH · « **Reply #724 on:** December 04, 2010, 06:21:28 am »

Whoops, misread that. Sorry, heheh. Fixed my action.

Ochita · « **Reply #725 on:** December 04, 2010, 06:29:58 am »

Slash at that boss!

Flagrarus · « **Reply #726 on:** December 04, 2010, 06:36:18 am »

Maybe at this point I should just become the villain? With me around, we won't even need demons to fight anymore!

When we are done with this boss learn something like earth magic

OR ELSE.

Herbicide magic. It's more reliable.

By the way, we could just run away without fighting the plant. It's not like it's going to chase us.

Ochita · « **Reply #729 on:** December 04, 2010, 07:43:42 am »

Yes but then it will become a boss later, this time more powerful "/

I am considering making a orb that will enchance water magic. Also I need my water blade to be enchanted as to stay on.

Plant magic has been pretty great in actual combat ( except when it was against plants ), it's just that I should probably stop taking difficult actions with large potential of going horribly wrong and very little benefit if I actually do succeed.

I won't, of course, but I probably should.

And that orb things sounds quite similar to my staff, the thing that probably empowered the beanstalk to be far more dangerous than anything I could have made without it. Then again, water magic probably isn't going to turn on you like plant magic sometimes does...

Cage the demon that was once standing over the girl, in a cage of stone. Interrogate and study it.

Ochita · « **Reply #733 on:** December 05, 2010, 05:32:32 am »

Hey, my water magic just hurts me, I might do a bit of necromancy though...

Turn 52: Stereotypical Wizard Death

Quote from: Tarran

Haul ass towards Flagrarus and plantboss2. And if I have enough time, attack plantboss2.

[4][Luck 1] You make it, but trip at the last second. The plant notices you.

Quote from: iceball3

Using the power from my sticky rune, I cast sticky field over the lizardwolf, effectively engraving the rune of clinging under its feet. Flirt again if succes, non-fatally wack it with my bucket if a failure.

[1+2][Luck 6], [4+2][Luck 3] The rune is somewhat crude but well-placed, while the effect is powerful but very focused. [2-2] vs [3] You are unable to wrestle the wolf-thing onto the rune, however.
+4 Runecrafting

Quote from: Frelock

Cure Moderate Wounds on Ochita

[1+2][Luck 2] Your feeble spell fizzles, and you are unable to heal Ochita.

Quote from: HmH

throw a Fireball at the plant.

[3+1][Luck 4] You hurl a perfectly average fireball at the plant. The plant lets out a bellowing roar as it hits, obviously damaged but not by very much.
Plant takes moderate damage, now Lightly Wounded.
+3 Destruction
Now Expert Destruction

Quote from: Flagrarus

Draw a Rune of Withering on the beanstalk.

[2-3][Luck 2], [6-2][Luck 1], [Staff 4] With the plant's thrashing you manage to stab yourself pretty deeply. The magic that was supposed to go into the rune goes into you instead, withering you. You look emaciated.
Take critical damage, now Critically Wounded.

Quote from: Ochita

Slash at that boss!

[6] vs [3+2] You make a shallow but clean cut across it, and it shrieks again.
+5 Swords
Now Novice Swordsman
Plant takes light damage.

Quote from: RandomNumberGenerator

Kill demon, absorb it's energy to heal self

[Luck 2][5+3] vs [1+2] You very nearly impale the demon extremely thoroughly, but the earth mage springs a cage of stone around it before you strike, and your halberd is deflected while breaking through it.
+3 Polearms

Quote from: Paranatural

Cage the demon that was once standing over the girl, in a cage of stone. Interrogate and study it.

[Luck 4][6+1][Luck 4] You produce an elaborate, very tough cage around the demon. [1][Luck 4] You manage to imply that you'll just let the spirit kill it once you've gotten what you need out of it anyway. Fortunately it's feeling desperately talkative anyway.
"I serve the great one to the north! The Great One! Without me you'll die, do you understand?! I can arrange things! Power! Wealth! You'll die without it!"
+4 Earth Magic

[1+2] vs [5+2] The wolf fails utterly to catch Icebrawl again.

[5] vs (Resist 5) The caged demon desperately blasts Thorontur with some sort of psychic power. He's momentarily stunned, but shrugs off the worst of it. Thorontur takes -1 penalty to next action.
"Now you fool, strike while it's disabled! It's your only chance!"

[6] The plant roars in fury, and lashes out. At everything.
Nathan: [1+2] vs [6]
Ochita: [5+2] vs [5+1]
Fre: [4+2] vs [6]
Tarran: [6+2] vs [5+1]
Flagro: [4+2] vs [2]
Nathan: [2+2] vs [4]

Nathan jumps, landing on the massive tendril the plant had tried to crush him with. Another tries to swipe him off, but he dodges to the side at the last second, rolling to the ground.
Fre barely dodges the plant's brutal strike.
Tarran is pounded lightly by the plant's onslaught, even while prone.
Ochita's newly found sword skill is all that keeps him standing after the plant's brutal lashing, and he staggers back, uncertain he can take another hit like that.
Flagro is utterly crushed by the plant's writhing coils. [Luck 1] Oh good, the plant now has his staff.

Tarran takes light damage, now Lightly Wounded.
Ochita takes minor damage, now CRITICALLY WOUNDED!

Flagro, Plant Mage, has been slain by his own creation!
