Turn the somethingth:
play keep-away with the rib!
Result:1
You try to keep the rib away from the bird. By swallowing it.
-1 health
It hurt.
The skeletal giant eagle has become enraged!
(Eagle)4+1 vs 6(You) ( The dice love you guys  ::) )
The eagle comes at you ferociously, but you kick it in the face. Its skull shatters and whatever evil force seemed to be possessing the skeleton abandons it. Its bones falls lifelessly to the ground. As do you.
Landing roll:4
You land in a soft patch of grass. And you also landed on your wing. It's now broken, so you can't fly. Even worse is, you're not really sure where you are right now. You seem to be in some kind of forest, but you have no idea in what direction the city is.
Status effect lost: Wing

I swim around until I learn how to magically control water.
Result:2+1
You swim, and swim, and swim, and swim, and swim, and swim, and swim, and swim, and swim, and swim, and almost get squashed by a giant spare-rib. More meat is falling from the sky. Either that, or raw shark has some odd side-effects.
(Giant steak, rare)3 vs 2(You)
You almost don't get squashed by a giant steak.
-1 health
Still, that could've hurt a lot worse. You continue to swim, and swim, and swim, and...
(Giant sausage, oscar-mobile sized)3 vs 3(You)
All this meat, wasted! It breaks your heart.
(Giant chicken leg)5 vs 3(you)
It also breaks your skull.
-3 health
At least the meat storm seems to have ended...for now.

I attack the guard, aiming to destroy what part of it's body the lasers come from, hopefully before he fires another one!
You attack the guard.
(You)1 vs 3(Guard)
You grab onto his arm and try to break off his hand, but he just punches you in the face with his other one.
-1 health
And then you died.
Status effect revealed: Bouncy ( take no falling damage )
Reward reveled: Water Spirit ( spirit stays for 2 turns, can only use small to mid scale magic that involves water but always gets double 6's.

New rule discovered: The number you pick doesn't only determine the status effect you start with, it also determines what happens when you die.
To be honest, this is one of the less awesome ones, though. Sorry, Diablous :(

You get up in your new spirit form. You feel you only have a small amount of time, but you also feel power, more than you have ever felt before. Now, you only have to decide: do you get revenge on the mortals that destroyed your body, or do you try to destroy as much of this horrible city as you can in the time you have?

I perfrom a roundhouse kick; Trying to shatter the very universe.
Instead of doing the sensible thing ( which is attacking the guards, by the way, or running away very fast ), you focus your attacks on the universe.
(You)3 vs 4+3(the universe)
You try to kick the universe, but the universe dodges your attack! You expected the guards would have shot at you by now, but they seem distracted by something. A very shiny, glowy, blue Diablous, apparently. "Hi, Diablous!"

Cast Explosive Runes on Everything I see.
Result:1
You want to cast Explosive Runes on everything you see. But how can you do that...
-3 health
if you have no eyes?
Status effect gained: Blind ( can't see. )
You think you hear someone yelling, but you have no idea what's going on.

As Ochita: Test out my newfound burning laser powers on the building I'm in.
Result:5
You would, except you are not in a building. You decide that you should build one and then test out your burning laser powers.

You build an elaborate underground evil lair with a laboratory full of human test subjects, a trap door at the entrance that drops people into your pet shark pool, a bunch of robotic minions willing to obey your every command, and a high-tech office where you can use all your giant television screens to monitor exactly what is happening in your lair and in the world.

Then you fire a burning laser at them. They explode.
(explosion)4 vs 3(you)
-1 health
You weren't standing near them, thankfully, but it still hurt!

---
Deity of Impatience

Attempt to combine Shark with Eagle.
Result:6
Spell created: Sheagle:A giant winged sharp with a razor-sharp chainsaw beak and talons. It can both fly and dive. It has grey feathers and its dorsal fin has turned into a large chainsaw.
It eats people. Oh, and this spell is not a summon, as you may have noticed. That's because, instead of merely summoning a Sheagle, it replaces all sharks and eagles with Sheagles in the region it is cast on.
 
Minor Boiling Flood > Ocean.
Result:3
Your spell does not boil the ocean. Instead, it just heats up a little, but not enough to kill anyone ( except maybe polar bears ).

Oh yeah, and Vertigon is now in, should I have made that clearer? Probably. Either way, pick a location! :D

...yeah, sorry I forgot about that.

I attempt to destroy the guards in a torrent of water!


"Lordinquisitor! Do what I failed to do before they killed me! Find the architects who designed the museum and the police station, eat their eyeballs, and deliver an angry lecture about the importance of designing buildings that won't collapse upon people's heads into their empty eye sockets! I do not have the time or the physical presence required to do it myself. Please, succede where I failed!"

Try to make my eyeball explode and come back again, like a self centered fireball because, I have to have fire resistance if I have an eyeball of fire, right?

"Diabolus! I swear revenge!"

Escape from the building (By flying out the window) and grow two new arms in the process. Or.. Not. No, no arms. I want to have tentacles instead. I try to develop two nice tentacles. That`s it.

Turn x:

Oh, and as Vertigon hasn't replied yet ( no, I haven't sent a PM, why are you asking? ), there's an open slot that's up for grabs by anyone from the waiting list. Just throwing that out there.

I attempt to destroy the guards in a torrent of water!
AUTOMATIC 6+6 SUCCESS OF AMAZINGNESS ( no such thing as "attempt" when you're an angry spirit out for revenge )
You summon water out of thin air. A lot of it. And then you have some fun, maybe a little bit too much fun. By the time you're done, the guards are crushed, short-circuited, ripped apart and frozen, all at once. You then give a very scared-looking Lordinquisitor your instructions.
You feel you have little time left. One last thing you want to do?

I search for a city-like gathering place of merpeople.
Result:3
You swim around in the ocean for a while, when you come across a large underwater city. You would admire it some more, maybe figure out some things about it's origins, it's architecture, it's inhabitants, but two mermans approach you from behind and knock you out.
-1 health
You wake up on your knees with your hands tied behind your back. In front of you, a throne, with a merqueen sitting on it. All around you, armed merpeople, ready to kill you if you try anything funny. And between you and the throne, a headless dolphin corpse.
"Do you recognise this, human?" the queen asks you sweetly.
Status effect gained: Hands tied ( can't use hands except to break the ropes tying you up )

climb up the volcano and dive in for treasure!
Result:6
The volcano. Of course. How silly of you not to have noticed that before! It's still off in the distance, though. It's going to be a long walk...
6 hours later ( let's ignore the fact that you are now in the future compared to the other players )
You sneaked past dozens of snakes, elephants, tree monsters and even a giant ape breathing magma and starting forest fires. You jumped over dozens of huge bottomless pits and probably triggered every still functioning trap in all the dangerous ancient ruins you crossed. And you even almost fell to your death a few times while scaling the volcano. But you've finally made it.

You do a perfect dive into the volcano, and land on a platform just above the burning hot doom magma. And there is indeed some treasure here. A magic ring, in fact! You put it on, and it instantly melts with your flesh. Your finger starts glowing, then your hand...you watch in horror as the glowiness travels up your arm. It travels over your eyes, and for a moment you can't see anything. But then, suddenly, it disappears, leaving you feeling more powerful than you have ever felt before. Ever.
Item gained: Godly Ring of Power, melted with finger

Try to make my eyeball explode and come back again, like a self centered fireball because, I have to have fire resistance if I have an eyeball of fire, right?
Result:2
Make your newfound eyeball explode? You decide that's stupid.

...You do it anyways.
The results...well, apparently, your eyeball did give you fire resistance. Unfortunately, it exploded and is gone now, presumably taking your fire resistance with it. Lame.
Item lost: Fiery Eyeball that Shot Fire and Burns Stuff and was Awesome
One of your robotic minions rolls into your Evil Overlord Office Chamber. "We heard an explosion, Master. What happened?" Why did you even bother creating these minions?

Light up the world so much with fireballs that I'll be able to see!

Magic roll:4...+1 8)
Result:5
You fire a bunch of fireballs high up into the air. Despite having no eyes, you see them clearly. You even hold your hand over the place where your eyes should be, but it doesn't make a difference. And you see the sun as well. In fact, you notice you still see everything! Everything looks different, though. For one, the sun is a lot brighter than you remember. And so are the people around you.
-4 health
You come to the only feasible conclusion: You are a zombie.

Status effect revealed: Zombie ( dies when body is destroyed )
Status effect gained: Infrared vision ( google it or something )

"Diabolus! I swear revenge!"

Escape from the building (By flying out the window) and grow two new arms in the process. Or.. Not. No, no arms. I want to have tentacles instead. I try to develop two nice tentacles. That`s it.
Result:6
What is it with you guys and imaginary buildings? Oh well, I guess I'll retcon it in then
You jump out of the building, changing into your superhero costume in mid-air. Your two extremely long tentacles sprout out of their hiding places and replace the two arms you lost. You use these tentacles to swing from building to building, and your superhero cape makes it look just that much more awesome.
You are no longer Lordinquisitor. You are now Octopus Man, defender of justice and protector of all that is tentacled. And you have a mission.

Status effect gained: Superhero ( complete with backstory and arch-nemesis )
Objective gained: Fulfill Diablous' last wish

---
Deity of Impatience action

Combine Sheagle and Possession.
Result:6
You were trying to gain control over 1 Sheagle. The spell you ended up creating is far more potent.

Control over an army of them. Well, maybe 'army' is a bit of an exaggeration. But you do have control over however many of them exist in one area. Currently, that's none, by the way, as you haven't cast Sheagle anywhere yet. But this spell also takes care of that, meaning that in the region you cast this spell on, all the eagles and shark will turn into Sheagles, Sheagles that you command.

So now we have a supervillain AND a superhero. Oh, and if Octopus Man fulfills his objective before dying, there'll be an additional reward waiting for you when you die, Lordinquisitor.
Profiles and stuff is coming later, it's 6:30 AM here so I should probably go to sleep. Also, my writing style seems to change depending on what time it is. Odd, really.
