Obviously, then, our course of action is clear.

We need to kill a wizard.

One of the other bastard apprentices... tormenting us, making fun of us. One of the weaker ones of course, the stupider ones... to start with, anyway.

I don't think the academy would let you do that. they tend to be pretty good at stoping students from killing eachother. Maybe it'd be better to rob a mages grave? Oh and Just so you know you shouldn't even know how to make flesh golems. Even knowing necromancy is punishable by death in this city.

Also I' making the assumption that whatever body parts you need for your golem you have at hand for the ritual. so if you say 70 year wizard lungs and the jaw of a crocodile I just figure that you robbed a grave and bribed a hunter.

But we aren't a student any more, are we? And surely the students must leave the academy occasionally... I'm sure an accident can be arranged, you know. As you said, we're already dealing with something that can get us killed here - it is no time for hesitation and pussyfooting around.

But perhaps you are right, a student may be too much. But we do so need to send a message, even if it will be a while before they really understand what it means.

If killing a student is too difficult, find one from the city and kill... a younger sibling, perhaps? A good plan, I think, and if we play our cards right we might be able to turn that into killing the student himself.

And no, we're not going to get some rotted husk from a graveyard for a flesh golem, that's just silly!

[EveryZig]

If our guy is able to make a talking golem, I kind of want to make a golem that can disguise itself as human (once it has adjusted to its body).

Some parts that would work well for this purpose would be scorpion tails attached to the underside of the wrists (small enough to be concealed when folded back, but containing useful poison) and a smaller secondary set of arms attached to the torso (can be hidden under robes if the torso is not too large, and having extra arms are generally useful.)

[GlyphGryph]

Go for a younger sister, I think, and go for a golem capable of guile and stealth, and eventually we can give it MAGICS.

[EveryZig]

Hmm... It occurs to me that our necromancer's obsession with revenge would be rather cliche on its own. We should add one or more other character traits to make him more interesting before the design phase is over.

[Monkeyfacedprickleback]

Alright last call for creations, and revisions. Try not to make any contadictions. And cliches aren't always bad, they're easy to write for if nothing else. Just give him a conflicting pesonality trait like always cheerful or values the sanctity of life, or actually not that evil.

[GlyphGryph]

The twist is that we're going to kill him and he's not going to be a main character for all that long?

Also, he like, seriously, loves dogs. He's got like six of them, and he takes great care of them and would never ever dream of hurting them they are just so awesome.

[EveryZig]

But if we kill him, who will add lovely new bits onto us? (And we still need a magic source. We should find one of those before getting rid of our only current one.)

[Monkeyfacedprickleback]

Preparing the ritual of Animation was truly tedious work with all the mystic symbols and wierd dance steps. But finally it's done. The parts have been gathered: The younger sister of Dothki's least favorite peer, Alfonzo Delromack, who not only Had unspeakable talent but had the good fortune to ben birthed to a loving mother in a wealthy, loving family. Well Now it's to for him to lose something precious. A little something to make up for all the barbs and slander, His little sister will make a fine base for The creation.

After poisoning her so as not to damage the body dothki Painstakingly Implated a sandsting scorpion gland inthe wrist of the girls left hand with the sting retracting from a hidden hole in the palm of her hand so it can inflict it's deadly poison with a mere slap or grip, Likewise in the right hand goes the less deadly paralytic spur of the Green winged harptail bird.

As a final touch Dothki Add the well suited arms of the only other sister of the Delromack Family. These are added just below the breasts so that they may be hidden in a discre-no No NO! havok Stop chewing that bad dog that is not food. Ahem. Hidden in a discreet manner whilst adding to poor Annabelles moderate bust. Alfonzo Has lost two sisters today. Dothki wishes he knew why this tradgedy befell him and who orchestrated it. The necromancer Truly wanted to see his face. A small bribe to the right thiefs and not only do the Delromacks get robbed but their poor daughters are kidnapped.

 Perhap Dothki should let Little Priscilla live, Minus her arms of course. Imagine the anguish that wretched family would feel when they discover there youngest child only 13 year has become an armless cripple. Dothki was very careful that she had no idea as to your identity for this purpose. ON the other hand she would make great dog food.

Well no matter, The resources are at hand and of high quality. The blood and flesh Of a esteemed line of mages will lend much potentecy to His Creation. Now let the ritual begin.

Dothki takes the spoon, the Radish, the dead rosebush and the teacup and wish he didn't have to do this, that there was some other way. Well nothing for it, He takes a deep breath and---


You Awaken form the void to a chorus of screams, cold and stiff, to a sound of... Retching?

[GlyphGryph]

Fine fine we'll chain him in the basement with the dogs, and MAKE him do what we want. And if he doesn't, well, the dogs will eventually get hungry should he betray us, and since we won't listen the chains he's not going to be going nowhere... is he going to call for help when any help that arrives will surely kill him?

No, he will be a malleable slave until we no longer need him.

[Monkeyfacedprickleback]

The first thoughts you have are the clamour for the death of this rude summoner who brought you into congress, While an opposing sypmthony argue for mery towards the one who brought us together. A large dog has taken to licking your feet.

A consensus of souls must be reached before action can be taken.

[Trapezohedron]

No, he will be a malleable slave until we no longer need him.

We shall do this.

[GlyphGryph]

Oh, as a golem of guile and discretion, we will be doing what the necromancer wants... for now, until we are ready, yes.

Yes.
Also we should pet the dog. If his animals trust us more he will suspect our intent less.
