Derp. I actually forgot Xantalos's bonus, and edited the wrong roll. Fixed on both counts."Nodi Zemonif?" he squeaks nervously, pointing a trembling finger at the spikes near the south end of the wall.

Also Toaster, did you add the word for Virus (or something similar?)
Lightly clench my hand like I'm holding something, and cast Fircerain again, this time on my hand.I guess this works same as Perplexicon in that stuff, and if its so, Fircerain is Whip. But what that whip is made out of? Nothing. Thus it dissapears. You have to add a second word that gives it a material: Shareeb Shubba in Perplexicon would be Metal Rod, here (Material) Fircerain.

Derek doesn't feel safe with a lunatic that caries battleaxes and summons spears. Without looking back Derek squeaks and runs down the Western passage. Dying is not on his to-do list. Axe-maniacs are probably liars, right?

So if someone dropped Chink off a ledge on someone's head, the dropper would get the point.
If Chink fell off on his own, he would.
Who would get the point if Chink jumped off a ledge onto his own head?
Who would get the points if I wiggled in such a way as to make it so that a swing that would have missed instead hit the target and killed it?
I'm not sure if I like the fact that the only thing Chink will ever feel again is me swinging his shaft around.At least I can be satisfied in the fact the my weaponry is larger than yours.

Whip Fuzzy with my 'hand'
Since Derek doesn't have much to defend himself with and is certainly not very strong on his own, he picks up the wand. It looks quite nice anyway, and it might help him along with the magic book, right? Then, not forgetting about the magma, he then quickly runs back the way he came. Magma is dangerous no matter what position it is in, and somehow he doubts floating lava stays that way for too long.
Be a very effective weapon, hope for untransformation.

Dammit Xantalos, I'll have to wait until I'm actually in to do any more research, won't I?Yes.
I've been a swear for a long time.Yes, but solely for one person? It's a compliment.
"If you could help me get out of this wonky place, I'd gladly accept it. I hate it here! Everything is really dangerous and there are crazy people with axes! Do you think this thing can do magic?" Derek asks, his question hanging in the air."Crazy people indeed, the way back is filled with fighting and whatnot. I believe the connection is with the books we hold.

Also why're you posting something like this here?
Myra nudged Derek, "There's a path moving west of here, I'll head up first if you could watch my back, thanks."
I'm fine with being NPC'ed and letting the next person in, on the condition that if I somehow get transformed back, I regain my position as a player.
If he gets NPC'd I better still get a point if I kill him.
"A floating what now.
"Lava can't float..but then at least we know we're aboveground. Err, could you detail that tiny bit there about the lava?"

Derek smacks the wand against his thigh a couple of times. "I guess it must be broken? Or maybe I'm not magical." he mumbles, a bit disappointed.
"If you're alright entering the room with a floating lava ceiling, I can't really argue."

The only other exit is to the north, so you both head that way.
It leads to a large natural cavern, with uneven walls and ceilings. There are several stalagmites and stalagmites, and a still, but deep, pool in the northwest. The room is quite large, bigger than even the grand room. This cavern curves gently to the northeast, where there is a wide passage that leads to a large room. You think it might be the room you started in.
There's some natural growth in the room, as well as a few glimmers of crystal in the wall.

You're out for the count this turn, by the way.That's what I'm attempting to remedy.
Yeah, title feature!I think it's more of a reference to the fact that four different players are currently killing each other by wrestling. Also, Toaster, can I change my waitlisted character? I think some changing of my stats might be necessary for better survival chances.
Until Andy enters the pit, I'd like to imagine an orchestra playing softly in the ground, gradually getting louder until it culminates in his entrance with his theme song.

Whoops, missed that. Still, I like that creating my non-magic melée character coincided with everyone rasselin' each other to death.Coincidentally, you aren't the only one of those now.
EDIT: Toaster, how high would the potency roll on a material spawning spell have to be to damage another player seriously? I remember somewhere back someone rolled pretty high and ended up launching a chunk of material the size of a small car at high speeds, so I'm wondering if I could feasibly weaponize it. Also, would the barrier on potential damage be lower for certain materials, like fire?

Most anything could be weaponized if used cleverly. That said, it's based on a combination of the base used and any other words it's combined with. Going off purely elements that have been revealed, acid is dangerous pretty easily while hair might take some clever usage to be deadly.
RTD standard rules do apply, where 3 is a "meh" result and 4 is "pretty good," so that should give you some idea.

I wonder, would there perhaps be any chance that you add back the gods?
If you combine Xan's discovery of gold with Piecewise's apparent liquid spell, you might get molten gold.Only if you killed everyone else to discover the word for "gold"
Even if you can't use it violently, you'd be rich!
I do have one an endgame idea just to throw out and see if people like. If one max level person kills another max level person, respawning would be disabled. It would become everyone versus this powerhouse. If that person could kill off everyone else, he/she would be the winner. If that person died, the empty slots would fill back up and the game would keep going. If I still wanted to run the game, I could then reshuffle the book, make a new arena, and start everyone fresh. The winner would probably get input into the new system as a reward..
No idea if I'd actually do that- just an idea to toss out.

The pool is incredibly deep and does not seem to be hiding anything of value. Derek is at a loss for what to do, so he decides to dip his wand in the pool of water. If nothing happens from that, he'll try tapping on the crystals with the wand instead. Even if he isn't magical, the wand may still work, right?

Simple. I had pretty much the same exact spell as you cast last turn. It's the one that failed. But I posted it first.You didn't leave it public. There is no way he could have known you were casting a similar spell to his.
Wait, you just used the transparent tag to hide your spells? I thought you PM'ed them. Nice to know more kind people are willing to share their spells.Yup! It keeps them slightly harder to get to for the spells I want to keep half-secret, while still keeping them public.
Yeah these puplic words, while helpful, are annoying cause they're also public to everyone else.My words are public so that everyone can see them. If you want the old Aether team up, you need to start it up. Or at least indicate that you want to.

I'm hoping to make this a different-feeling game from Perplexicon. Heck, I have half a mind to make my word compilation public...but that would remove all the challenge, so I won't.

What sort of new age, avant-garde joint you running here? I demand a return to the way it was! If we allow spikes to be on walls, where does it end? Swinging blade traps on the floor?

Charles psyches himself up, readying himself to act as quickly as possible next turn.
I'm going to need more pool.Isn't that how it always is?
Also is that an actual spell? (half joking)Sure. Try saying it.
Doubling it is too much. What about 2 points for +1 and you can't use it more than once? Stacking it might get extreme.Allow it to be stacked, but make the quantity needed for each stack being the square of the earlier.
I like that. I like that so much that I could consider generalizing it so you can boost ANY stat with pool at a 1:1 ratio. It gives pool a use for those less magically inclined, comes with cost control, and, as Derm said, makes those inexact stat levels have some value.
I do think if we do the above, it should come with some sort of cooldown so it can't be done every turn.
Kill Tod dead.

This book is beginning to annoy Derek. How could he get rid of it if it simply refused to burn to a crisp? And was the wand even helping him at all? Myra wasn't even doing anything herself. Instead a weird number appeared over her head out of all things.Myra blinked at the word uttered by Derek.
Derek pushes Myra. "Hello? Are you alright? He hoped to wake her up before something happened and he'd never learn her name.
He tries "Sauma!" on the weird number above Myra's head. Maybe if he can shoot it down with something, nothing bad will happen to his companion!

Derek heads to the chasm room and stands on the middle of the stone bridge.

This but not entirely so, lets say you were trying to hold a heavy spike up that is poised above your gut, if you roll a one you drop it and are injured based on your end roll, if you roll a zero it impales you fully and you either die instantly or one turn later.You rolled a zero on strength... that in and of itself would kill or maim you.QuoteUsed for physical combat and picking up heavy thingskill me how?

I would have thought that "Anything more than 'Nothing happens'" would be the typically-assumed interpretation, as well as being the desired one.How do you want me to put it?As in define "anything." Anything more than "nothing happens?" Something solid summoned? Two dancing pigeons who put on a Broadway song and dance from the fifties?

Bodyguard? I suppose. More I'm just interested in keeping him alive for the purpose of causing chaos. Also, I'm not very physically capable, and a derm on my side for the time being is helpful. Eventually he'll betray me, like Hitler to Stalin in the early days of WWII, but Till that day I shall continue to science.Uh, that was a weird comparison, since both ruled huge empires in their days, and also because Stalin won... I see what you did there. Yeah, believe it or not, but I think that in a one on one, you will win. Derm is already weakened, and you have a better physical form. And because you have a DM screen. Also, I find hilarious the idea of protecting chaos. Because chaos needs protection.

"Escosall." Myra says, focusing on the general notion of helping Derek with his problem.
Derek doesn't really do much at this point probably because his legs are metal and a pain in the neck to move, Myra is borrowing the wand, and random spellwords don't do all that much. To add to that, it's apparent he has little mobility. It's quite annoying.

Actually, Bob can just deactivate the form at will - he got a 5 on it, yes? He should go back to normal in that case.Yes, but i think if he collapses and doesnt deactivate at time, he will implode and die.
Ack. It seems that my weakness is speed rolls. Derm will now Derm you all, you monsters.Probably it would, considering that he had to do an endurance roll when he took a human. But it would probably cause it to implode, and scrap to get thrown everywhere, potentially severing (and killing) everyone nearby. And im not exactly an Endustredextspeedy one.
On an unrelated note, would dumping, for example, a truck sized lump of gold into blackhole-Bob have a significant effect on his mass/ability to remain stable?

I don't suppose you could update the op with the extra rules? I think it would be easier for newcomers. (dodge rules etc.)
So, i can focus to get potency for next turn, right?I don't suppose you could update the op with the extra rules? I think it would be easier for newcomers. (dodge rules etc.)
Good idea, and done. I did make a small clarification- I had intentionally intended that this wouldn't work for Potency, or Strength if used on a melee attack, but decided that was a bit arbitrary- and I never actually said that. Instead, I specified that if used for Potency, it only applies to the first spell cast in a turn, and dropped the Strength bit. As such, Sarzael, said action does indeed work.

Derek, who has been dazed by all the events going on, snaps back to attention when yet another lunatic runs into the room and attempts to crash into Myra... only to hit the far end of the wall. Smooth.
Also, Myra seemed to have wanted something from him while he was stunned. Who is also bleeding out. This is getting really bad.
"Wait! Your arm is still bleeding!" he finally realizes (some hero) and ripping off a chunk of his shirt, he tries to tie it around Myra's stump to stop the blood loss.
Derek also keeps an eye on the new weirdo. If that electric devil tries to make a move, he'll try to hit him away with his book
((Sorry for not responding. I was at SiX Flags all day yesterday, and now I'm at my cousin's place which doesn't always let me access a PC.))
(I'm not claiming to play my character smartly because Derek only serves to amuse me with his misadventures. I may edit if I feel like it though, although I doubt repulsive force is visible and obvious.)Well, i guess he knows what a conductor is.
No, but considering you re not using it, maybe you could hand it to me? I wanna test if it has to do with the Will stats, and considering you re probably gonna die... You could hand it to me and then safely cast a blackhole and kill everyone who attacks you (Along with yourself, but you will have revenge at least)[1. I don't know your character.
I wont force you to anything though, so please?
...Another way to beat him would be to make him fall on the water (or throw water at him), being careful not to touch it when that happens.

Piecewise is basically a video game boss.))...Another way to beat him would be to make him fall on the water (or throw water at him), being careful not to touch it when that happens.
((If one discharges electricity, it would be strange to concur that if a conductive substance (which ain't pure water, but in this case I'm betting this does, as it should be impure given its close proximity to the surroundings) if I had anyway to ionize something, it would really help my cause....Another way to beat him would be to make him fall on the water (or throw water at him), being careful not to touch it when that happens.
I think the wand works with will, Just tell it to work and it will do something. I havent yet found the way to track how that Something works, low rolls may cause things that can pretty much destroy you, and i havent seen yet high rolls with it. If you re desesperate should try it, maybe with some luck it will do something helpful. Try to speak with it though mind and specify what you want it to do (And it seems i broke your last petition)((If one discharges electricity, it would be strange to concur that if a conductive substance (which ain't pure water, but in this case I'm betting this does, as it should be impure given its close proximity to the surroundings) if I had anyway to ionize something, it would really help my cause....Another way to beat him would be to make him fall on the water (or throw water at him), being careful not to touch it when that happens.
Problem is, I've no idea how the battle mechanics work as it seems Toaster has ran an attacker headfirst without me spotting it (opposing speed rolls only), or..do I have any idea what the wand does. Or most of the words. Or my bias against magic and its imbuing properties and rant rant rant blargh.

2. I used it every time I cast a spell.
3. I'm always probably going to die, so my worth is being made into a value--this obviously hurts my feelings.
4. Safety, and the notion of something illogical does make a convincing argument.
5. Revenge is not what I'm aiming for.
6. Sure, go get that wand. Everyone blatantly knows where the magma room and can guess where I am.]
>_>
((What does the wand even do?It seems to cast random stuff (Probably its not random, just looks so) when activated. In one of the posts, Toaster said that you ´´Will the Wand to activate``, so i want to see if will has to do with its power.
((Well, Derek was trying to stop the bleeding on Myra's arm, but Myra ran out of the room, so I don't know how that will go. Toaster may make my action first, but they might also make Myra's first, and then Derek can't help.((...I'm still in the room :/))
From what I can tell, the wand does random effects based on where you aim it and how lucky you are. Of course, the wand has not proven terribly useful to me so far ever since it turned Derek's legs into solid iron. The wand doesn't seem to support words and works outside of them.))

Derm, facing Hale, says his words. A sphere of glass, surrounding a point of nothingness, forms in the air before Derm. It hovers for a second then fires directly forward. Halfway across the room, the glass shatters and collapses inward toward the point. The point slows down as the suction begins. Hale, seeing it coming, dodges the only way he can- straight off the ledge. He falls off and lands with a crack, breaking his right arm.

Battle Mechanic Works:
First speed roll (Of both) to see who attacks first.
Then dexterity roll (Of both) to see if you avoid/he punches himself accidentally
Then strenght/potency/will roll (Of attacker).
Then endurance/will roll (Of attacked).
If you survive, depending on your rolls, you may or may not have a chance to counterattack.
You can hide that you re going to attack by pming Toaster the exact action you want to do, and im not sure, but i think that if your character doesnt know hes gonna be attacked, attacker wins initiative.
He isnt asking if the pony will let him ride it, hes saying that he will attempt to use the WILL stat to control the pony. Is kinda weird is me who noticed out first O_O.Will the pony to allow me to ride it, more specifically if needed, into battle.

Since you were in combat last turn, your pool won't full refill until next turn, giving you 1/5 for this turn. I forgot to update it, so that's a my bad.
myxida is garstopit :IWhat? No! Its black hole. Gastorpit was poison.
Gastorpit was doom tentacle dimension spell :Vmyxida is garstopit :IWhat? No! Its black hole. Gastorpit was poison.
Gastorpit was doom tentacle dimension spell :V
both are freaky flippin things
myxida is garstopit :INah, Garstopit was safer, myxida could end up killing the caster even if they roll 5. Reason I use Myxida is because I have no self preservation.
And what we cast here is a Singularity, not the Other. (Or candy!)Gastorpit was doom tentacle dimension spell :V
both are freaky flippin things
Nope, that's Zentol. Garstorpit was just poison.
Well, we do have quorum, but it'll be a bit before I can bang out an update.Ouch. My heart. (Seriously through, why i am so excited about a update if probably all what i will do will be randomly scream focusing my potency?)
I felt that way the first game when just recharging pool!Also, this is an small idea for another specific move:
Anyways, free to everyone, GreatWyrmGold's Compilation of Words! (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y0J_L5EHmsRtuJjiAbbhUzmrfKmEWPbK2eiaaO1sMCE/edit) This includes every page's suspected theme and the meaning of every word I know or can guess. PEACH.I saved this to my favorites in my browser, I had my own copy about half-way done.
(If you're all good, I might even make it viewable by everyone! Hahaha, aren't I funny?)
But, do we really want to stop them? They keep new blood joining.I have to agree with this, they keep the player pool shuffling.
I wouldnt attack them unless they do first.
Should make the game more interesting anyway. It will be less about who knows the more powerful words, and more about who can think of the most creative uses/combinations for them.A fair part of my hope.
Who knows, it may even help stop Derm's (and Piecewise's) reigns of terror. (and get me in the game quicker ;) )That would be a nice side effect. Aside from the fact that I'd likely not get in this side of Christmas.
((It was a good run! *salutes* Good luck Tiruin! I may enter the waitlist again when it isn't so huge.))(;__; There goes all my friends.)
Spoiler: Derm will attempt to murder waitlisters next
Spoiler: Derm will attempt to murder waitlisters nextJust a question. Is there going to be long term consequences for non-bleeding injuries? Because I remember that Derm got his face badly burned, and I was wondering if you were going to start applying some nasty effects that would be happening in the real world to a human that had his face badly burned, and didn't treat it in any way. Or even treated, frankly.

Not that i dont enjoy seeing myra siffer after failing to kill her but shouldnt the acid she converted her arm into have cauterised the wound?
There isnt any half seconds with acid, its a liquid and therefore it clings to whatever it touches and keeps burning until its fully diluted, washed away or runs out of stiff to burn through.Not that i dont enjoy seeing myra siffer after failing to kill her but shouldnt the acid she converted her arm into have cauterised the wound?
While I can find that acid cauterization is a thing, I cannot find how long it takes. If you can find that application of roughly half a second would do so, then I shall unbleed her to death.

((Peacefully. With you ending me. Yes, that's real peaceful. <__<))Peacefully means you give me the wand and i go away (Without killing). In my action i included that if you dropped the wand, i would just take it and leave you in peace, and perhaps later on, if i find a way, even help you.
There are some other actions you can take with specific outcomes. In general, if it makes sense, you can do it.
Dodge: Spend a turn dodging incoming attacks instead of attacking back or changing location. This grants you +1 to dex and speed rolls for the turn. Does not require initiative roll.
Focus: Spend a turn preparing to do something, such as lifting something heavy, waiting for an opportunity in combat, making a hard jump, etc. That's all you do that turn, but you get a +1 (+2 in case of combat initiative) the next turn if you take that action.
If used to focus on casting a spell [improve Potency], it is only good for the first spell you cast the following turn.
Overdrive: You may spend pool points at a 1:1 ratio to increase one stat for one turn. You may only do this once every three turns.
((Overdrive whatnow??))Oh doesnt really matter.
((The action I did was directed at the steel I just summoned a while ago by the way.
((I can rant on acid, as all acids are corrosive, but I'll withhold that due to game mechanics and me berating myself for being a jerk :(((Overdrive whatnow??))Oh doesnt really matter.

You know, i can make you new clothes, and i didnt corrode you at all. Yet.
This isnt a RP, its an battle arena. If you want to RP, thats fine, but it also gives your opponents an advantage.((I can rant on acid, as all acids are corrosive, but I'll withhold that due to game mechanics and me berating myself for being a jerk :(((Overdrive whatnow??))Oh doesnt really matter.

...And yes. If, for some reason, your body cannot corrode the material of the wand, judging by how I stab you with it, and based on whether I'm fast enough. [And cheers to me wondering how you got so close without getting a dodge roll post-fireball casting >_>]
Anyway.
...
I'm really wondering how you all keep your own discoveries and get the combinations as is, perfectly. But that's another story.
Ty @Toaster. That confirms one suspicion I have.))
((RP isn't that much of an advantage, in the previous Perplexicon game, I was able to sort of RP (I was in-character but no one was consistently RP'ing until later on so my character didn't having much RP interactions with other people) rather peacefully. As long as you figure out the syntax of word combinations, you should have enough deterrence or influence to be safe. Alliances are probably vital if you intend to RP someone more opposed to violence, especially since this is a battle arena.))In the previous Perplexicon game i didnt see anyone really RPing until the second stage, on which you didnt need to kill players for souls, just NPCs, thus you was safer.
((Yeah but near the end people started getting more violent towards each other for some reason so it pretty much began to resemble the old times except with better equipment and alliances.))By the end, people was bored and they wanted fun, and since respawn was instant...
((Personally I think this game is a bit blasphemous: I don't see any murderous magical bears running around. :P))Well, for some reason Toaster made it so you cant control creatures just with will... Thus people dont really want to summon.
Also, my acid is less corrosive than normal acid, since its on an nonpure status (Fullbody), thus chances are that if i stop attacking you wont get to much damage from it.>__>
Don't kill me, I'm giving out words like candy!I dont want you to give words publicly...
((Would Alish be damaged by what they're doing? Since their body IS reacting in the process of corroding Myra.))

I don't know, those two words together might be interesting. But I suppose we had better warn him of the extreme danger.
I assume I just tried to summon an eldritch elder god.It doesnt have to phisically do with you, and its better to use it at range from who you want to kill. But still, stay away from that word unless you have a good strenght stat.
I'm trying that at some point, by the way, possibly whilst hugging someone.
((Someone should try to blackhole the eldrich abominations. It could get interesting.
Also, that was a good end for Piecewise. A battle between light and darkness, he he he. Someone should try it when we get someone very high willed. Maybe black hole + everything Bob did.))
Also yeah, that light and dark thing was cool. I kinda want to try those words with a form, such as a pony or something, but since I'm doing at least the first character totally blind... Fun should happen.((Sounds good to me.
Dont count on me. Even if i though there was any way to kill him on my current status, i would rather ally him. I dont do it because i know he will kill me then later. So i prefer being pragmatic to him and just dont get nor to close nor to far.Also yeah, that light and dark thing was cool.

Hug me and I'll give you the self-sacrificing KISS OF DEATH. Because it's the only thing I know that scares people.You mean Blackhole? You dont know the word for Full Body. And also, you cant speak while you have acid inside your mouth.
Assuming that you're not RPing, of course.Actually I find it is more true with games like this, where turns can be thrown out at more than one a day, on the more RPy RTDs itl typically be at least 24 hours between turns, making timezones LESS of an issue, although not a non issue((I really hate timezones >_>Timezones are annoying. I never realized that applied to RP-light games like this one, too.

"Hmm, I might as well finish off that page."Can't you just post the words you're using?

Can't you just post the words you're using?
[Heaven/Hell]
((This is correct, I PM most of the unknown words I want to test, then if they are not overly dangerous/useful I will post what I said next turn, if they are I will post themCan't you just post the words you're using?
I think he's doing that because, if he finds something really useful, like the control word, he can successfully keep it secret for a while, thus giving himself an advantage. I guess he would do the same for words like "where I'm pointing at", "enhance", "quicken" and so forth.
*Checks own research, then checks GWG's research.
It is a material, and I think that someone already used that combination of words before (derm, maybe)

((Yeah, I recall however, that in Perplexicon, [attack_material][weapon/attack/shape_type][form_material][weapon/shape_type] would allow such things to be a bit safer. If memory serves, [blackhole][propelled_sphere][clockwork][bow] resulted in Corsair's singularity armcannon in Perplexicon, perhaps something similar could be achieved? Though mind you it was never actually used so the specifics such as whether or not a strength roll is still required are unknown.))Wait, wasnt Corsair armcannon made though will?

My idea is that "Zentol"ey words aren't really materials per se.If all goes well I'll be able to test that next turn.
But, what if you have to do a will roll to see if the weapon eats you or not? I think it fits me more (Biggest will so far).

Theres also the fact that I failed all of my spells about four times in a row so who knows if I just didn't get the chance?

According to your character info it says that they are still dissolving.(("'Fantasy' acid". <Profanity>.))
((I had this feeling since halfway--those with lesser points in word power are at a huge disadvantage. Bluh bluh >_>))((That's actually not true. You just have to play very aggressively in the beginning, and quickly upgrade the power post-creation. Playing possum... not a good long-term strategy.))
Its not whats similar to fire, its another elements like Fire. In the page of elements where Air was, there was also Ice and Water.Also, she notes her clothes are mostly corroded off, with only undergarments preserving any modesty.Bloody great.

"Come on, rely on your ludicrous magic. Fight me, coward!"
((I had this feeling since halfway--those with lesser points in word power are at a huge disadvantage. Bluh bluh >_>))
Let's see..if my inferences, then the pages all have similar words. I wonder what else is similar to fire? Asphyxiation? Combustion? Well, one way to find out.
Also, metagaming. Love that note here. :/
BITCHES I FOUND THE WORD FOR DRAGON.Not really anything new, i know the page it is at, and if i dont remember bad, there were around 6 words there, two of which already have been tested. Sooo, 4 chances.

Just Rogran, then.
You get nine stat points to start with, distributed as you please. Each player is worth one point to start with, plus one for the sum value of their kills. Total stat cap is fifty.
Shouldnt Myra be triying to find a word to survive me rather than casting useless stuff?Probably. Still, it would be useful to know how to make clothes. That, and I wanted to see what would happen if someone tried to summon a cloth breastplate.
((I don't know half of that though, and don't depend on meta despite it.Fair enough.
Also..I'm pretty sure it must be a double-bound word as most things are. Because I've findings of my own when words are spoken and connecting them with faint images, and tangible objects. :v))Rogran is cloth. Saying it lets you summon...cloth. You can make cloth into clothing.
Post tonight... maybe. Not a lot of time today.NOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUU!
((What amuses me incredibly is that while Derek held the wand, nobody tried to take it, but he moment he gives it to Myra she gets mugged three times(?).

Wait, what? That wasnt in the original! He never said anything about using my spear!
I really dislike this unconciousness mechanic. It just makes the game completely unfair to the reciever, and it's kinda bullshit when I can't defend myself. Remove it.
I wish to lodge infinity profanities. Against everyone. Forever. Put me back in the wait list.
Dammit.Yeah, totally. We should have instant death instead. That'd make it more fair, right?
Unconciousness is still crap.
And all of it for pretty much free~Hey man you attacked me while I was unconcious :p
Also, please change your forum title thingy away from 'Derm Slayer', or I might actually unleash my already barely supressed nerd rage.Alright, I'm just excited.

In retrospect I should have announced that if someone stopped dave from killing me, I would have PM'd them the word for dragon. Probably wouldn't have made a difference, but maybe.

Also suggestion: Make Will affect on how much time you re unsconcious. Every turn you re unsconcious you can do a will roll to see if you wake up.
First turn: 5/6+=You wake up.
Second Turn: 4/5/6+=You wake up.
Third Turn: 3/4/5/6+=You wake up.
And so on, the minimum to wake up being a one, cuz zeros suck.
This seems a more fair system and adds will another use apart of magic. In fact, perhaps you could do a will roll to avoid while sleeping? 4+=You can do a dexterity roll to avoid with a -2 (That -2 can be negated with points on dexterity)
You use Endurance to see wether you go unsconcious or not (And to help negating damage while asleep), but after that its the willpower that you need to be able to wake up and resume fight.Also suggestion: Make Will affect on how much time you re unsconcious.

Why not use Endurance for that as well? Seems to fit better, considering that it's a physical ailment of a sort.
How can you use willpower, which is, by its very nature, an action of your conscious mind, if you're unconscious? It really doesn't make sense to me.By your logic we would be dead while we sleep. We actually use mind while unconscious, else we wouldnt dream.
Let me put it like this - in a dream, can you make yourself wake up on command? The example you brought up was when a person has already woken up and is sleepy.Wait, are you speaking about logic in a forum game? Whats next, economy?
You can't will away the minor brain damage or oxygen deprivation that struck you unconscious, either. It's all a matter of how your body recovers. The mind hardly figures into it, really.
And when the control word becomes known, will shall become omnipresent and at least a second or third thought in everyone's character build. Will doesn't need to shine at all, in my opinion. It'll become obligatory soon enough.Oooooh if you knew...
How is it that you played the original and failed to realize that will is blatantly overpowered?I had hmm, three turns in the original.
The only thing that ever held it back even slightly was that you needed an item or god to channel it through.
I mean seriously, i created organic thornbush grenades, then wwolin detonated someones spine and then toaster hijacked someones mind and forced him to summon a MOTHERFUCKING BLACK HOLE CLUSTER BOMB.
I had hmm, three turns in the original.
Also, it was me who said that Will was the best stat and managed to get two large groups agaisnt me because of that.
I had hmm, three turns in the original.
Also, it was me who said that Will was the best stat and managed to get two large groups agaisnt me because of that.
Will is powerful, but to use it, you need one of several things:
A) the ability to cast complex magic (at least 2-3 words).
B) a buddy or buddies who can cast complex magic for you.
C) the ability to steal a control item from somebody else.
D) Scarlon.
The first three require somebody to know the control word (or, for lesser functionality in the first case, a will-based targeting word), while the fourth is currently impossible. And Will, unlike Potency and Channeling, functions perfectly well on its own and, while less versatile than true magic (when used by someone with knowledge of a lot of words, which equates to anyone not lazy and not going for the self-imposed 'no metagaming' challenge), is also functionally infinite. So will is really powerful, but not all-powerful, being largely item-based, magic-based or cooperation-based.
With the current rate of murder and not experimentation, I think that the control word won't be discovered for a long time. On the other hand, once the page where it is supposed to be is discovered, maybe the process will accelerate.I dont need to discover it. HAhahahaha...
May I ask how did you discover it? Nobody has been testing magic in other people, just testing on their own, so I doubt that you know which word it is.I didnt say i discovered it either. I just dont need to discover it. Atleast i hope. That I hope will be converted on a Yes or a Not the next turn.
Anyway, I didn't play the original, so don't know the particularities of how does the control word work.
Ahh, I misunderstood that. Happy !!Science!!Also in the original you had to apply the control word to an item along with an element, being a minimum of three word longs casting. ´´Control Fire Ring``, would make a ring that lets you control fire.
I see. Now that I know the sistem, I realize that I won't use it, anyway. Unless there is mind control, that's a whole different subject. I have other plans involving magic. Like turning someone's head into booze and drinking it to deathTheres mind control, but is not easy to find the words to obtain it. In the original Scarlon gave you a mask that allowed you to do it at all times if you wore it, however the only other way is though a complex combination of words, most of which we dont know, and if your opponent beated you at will, bad stuff could happen to you.
You dont require Scarlon, Scarlon made will stronger and gave ability to control minds without the correct words.
Actually, i dont require the first nor third. And B is already accomplished.
I dont know nor hopefully need the first or third, second is optional and accomplished (I can make a minion/minions to accomplish the second anyways, but i dont think they will be needed)You dont require Scarlon, Scarlon made will stronger and gave ability to control minds without the correct words.
Actually, i dont require the first nor third. And B is already accomplished.
Actually, you do if you can't get the first three. That's kind of the point I'm making - if you couldn't get either of the first three, you could choose Scarlon. Or, even better, Nul-sheal, though the elements could get a bit random in her case.
So, control just let's you manipulate something at will, and to do that you have to have a pre-casted item that allows you to do so. In an universe where players can change their material at will, I don't see that as something really overpowered, really.You can manipulate yourself to increase your stats, however, only the first bonus is free, everything else you manipulate in your own body with will is compensated though the lose of something.

It was way more threatening in the original Perplexicon, where people didn't discover the full-body word in the first five turns of the game (in fact, it was only at the end of the first phase - the arena phase - that such a thing became common knowledge). As such, nobody with regular, public knowledge was safe from somebody who had, say, bone control.
I always advocated for the secrecy thing.Yeah true. I have tried to form a group with those who were saying words in public so that we get more power as our enemies knowledge decreases. Most didnt listen though.
If everyone knows everything it just kinda leads to the same thing over and over. Void balls and full body steel.
I'm doing my first character with all public, all blind plays, then I'll worry about alliances and words and the like after one death.
I had planned on murdering all public speakers.
As it was said earlier, the idea of the public speakers are to encourage creativity, and hopefully make the game funnier than a game where the same combination is always used by the same person.
I haven't thought it that way. Anyway, I will still get satisfaction once I turn someone into booze and drink him, it doesn't matter if I didn't discovered any words.As it was said earlier, the idea of the public speakers are to encourage creativity, and hopefully make the game funnier than a game where the same combination is always used by the same person.
It's also a bit boring when everybody knows all the really good elements to use, because it eliminates all intrigue and need for effort and science, which is what makes all the funny combinations possible and ultimately satisfying.
Well, we know one of the three words needed for it, and the page of other needed to do so.I haven't thought it that way.

Hey! Yes, I have been on a vacation for the last two weeks, but you could at least send a PM to confirm!Calm down dude, im still in the game, Derm is dead, Dave, who so far seems to be semingly peaceful got his souls, and there is only one dude who has attempted an aggresion and is still alive, and i got an powerful artifact on my hands.

Pot:3
Chan:6
Immediately upon spawning, run away from anybody who approaches. If anybody points at me, or makes a face or anything that migt possibly be considered aggresive, shout SPELL at them as many times as possible.
Well, I'm not up to date on what's going on really. All I know is that there were eight or so people before me on the waitlist two weeks ago, and now I'm in. That means lots of people have died. So I'm just being safe, and making sure nobody touches me before I'm up to date.Your not in game yet. You can take one or two turns probably to get up to date.
Also, i dont think you really want those stats, Zentol doesnt give you phisical stuff here, remember? And dont even try doing it with full body unless you want to end like Piecewise and Corsair...To be fair, the fullbody stuff was actually working out pretty for him until he commited suicide.
Welp, im not dead. But i gave those people a chance to continue playing.

And are you actually trying to convince somebody that this place is not dangerous? I sense an ulterior motive.
Also, reading through all the plans to kill everyone who spoke words publicly, I'm glad to see you guys dead. Because that's a level of metagaming I find repulsive. Killing somebody for playing the game how they want to play it.

If the arena is safe, the arena is boring.It is currently safe. There was also an stage in Perplexicon where this happened, people was to busy in midgame attempting to get ready for the future that they didnt care about present battles, however, when that future came, was when the true epic battles began.
Well, arent we playing how we want to play too when we decide to do so? Have we less right to keep our position safe by triying to decrease general knowledge while increasing individual one?To decrease that knowledge, you're killing other people. If they actually an formed an alliance, and were actually semi-organized, this might be even a little bit fun. But as it stands, it's a very bad form of Darwinism and exclusionary behavior, and makes the game less fun for everyone on the sidelines.

It's the bit where you're talking like you're the new king of the pit.Actually, i dont consider myself any kind of power. I dont even have a soul (Thanks to you in part), im just saying that right now the Pit is seemingly safe, i dont see how that has to do with me being more or less powerful.
Newsflash: You aint.
(I'm actually wondering why Dave wasn't unconcious for another round like I was when I was being strangled. I did crack him in the head pretty damn hard and I know he got 6 end, but so did I and his head was pretty damaged already. Semantics, I suppose.)
Also, i kill people, in a killing game. I had direct impact in Tiruin death in order to obtain this wand. Derm killed many people, Dave killed Derm, a dude threw another dude down the botomless pit, and you ask me not to kill? Seems fair. Ill just stay over here seeing how people throw blackholes, tentacles and dragons at me.It's not killing people, it's what people you choose to kill.
PS: Also, please stop taunting Dermonster.Because this is generally bad not for just the taunter, but everyone within a 20-mile radius.
No, but it is bad for the forum thread. I'm not a fan of idealizing Derm or covering before him, but when you've got an easily irritatable player, taunting him is a bad idea.QuotePS: Also, please stop taunting Dermonster.Because this is generally bad not for just the taunter, but everyone within a 20-mile radius.
Sazrael: Oh will you chill out. "All your souls are aquired due to me!", "I participated in everything!", "You owe all your power to me!", "All who do not agree with my policies are going to be exterminated!".
If that's not a sign of you behaving like a kind of the pit, I don't know what is.

Anyways, perhaps you re right, but its also unfair for us, since they decrease our power.
You should try coming over here and see how you reactEh, I would probably actually roleplay in this game to a limited amount, make my words visible, and make you my enemy. ;D
Yeah, not gonna argue with this. Not a topic I consider worthy to argue about. And I would like to ask everyone not to argue on my behalf. Don't want to escalate this.Thats what happens when we dont get enough daily dose of turns. (In no way intention to insult Toaster, i think hes doing pretty good!)QuoteYou should try coming over here and see how you reactEh, I would probably actually roleplay in this game to a limited amount, make my words visible, and make you my enemy. ;D
Just a quick query: I have sent my action to Toaster through PM, yet it doesn't appear in my sent messages list. Does this mean it hasn't sent, or is that normal? I sent it again to make sure, but it's still not coming up.Pretty sure it has been sent.
My question: In Perplexicon, if you asked the admin (Piecewise) he could make your action secret (Not telling the results) as long as there was no one else with sight capacity in the room. (Basically, there is no one else or they are blind/unsconcious.
Also suggestion: Make Will affect on how much time you re unsconcious. Every turn you re unsconcious you can do a will roll to see if you wake up.
First turn: 5/6+=You wake up.
Second Turn: 4/5/6+=You wake up.
Third Turn: 3/4/5/6+=You wake up.
And so on, the minimum to wake up being a one, cuz zeros suck.
Aaaand finally another question:
In original Perplexicon you could do more stuff with souls apart of converting them into points, you could give them to other players and stuff. Is it possible to do that here?
toaster hijacked someones mind and forced him to summon a MOTHERFUCKING BLACK HOLE CLUSTER BOMB.
It was way more threatening in the original Perplexicon, where people didn't discover the full-body word in the first five turns of the game (in fact, it was only at the end of the first phase - the arena phase - that such a thing became common knowledge).
Hey! Yes, I have been on a vacation for the last two weeks, but you could at least send a PM to confirm!
I still need to read through this, but here's my char, if I'm in.
Pot:3
Chan:6
Either ways, who votes Pit of Magic for the Hall of Fame?
Just a quick query: I have sent my action to Toaster through PM, yet it doesn't appear in my sent messages list. Does this mean it hasn't sent, or is that normal? I sent it again to make sure, but it's still not coming up.
Toaster, im stalking you again. I know you re online. You gonna bring update D:?
I just want to be able to change my title to derm slayer.Good luck.
Dammit.How unusual. It's a bad thing to be knocked unconscious.
Unconciousness is still crap. I only survived my first one 'cause piecewise is nice.
How can you use willpower, which is, by its very nature, an action of your conscious mind, if you're unconscious? It really doesn't make sense to me.While I'm a bit uncertain about the logic, I have to agree with the conclusion.
You left out The Golden Scholar discovering gravity.Well, I'm not up to date on what's going on really. All I know is that there were eight or so people before me on the waitlist two weeks ago, and now I'm in. That means lots of people have died. So I'm just being safe, and making sure nobody touches me before I'm up to date.The count of deaths that i remember:
Ton**** of Derm kills.
Bob(Piecewise) dieing ripped in half when he tried two conflictive full body materials (Zentol and a heavenly type material) and finally consumed by each of those.
Corsair being consumed by the Zentol Fullbody due to his lack of will.
Tiruin death, i almost killed her character while attempting to get !!THE WAND!!, but Derm came on the last moment and attacked us both with a blackhole, and she couldnt resist.
Derm Death by Dave, when Dave went unsconcious by a failed spear summoning, Derm came to attack, however Dave electric body electrocuted him and made him fall unsconcious, just as Dave woke up and broke Derm neck with a repulse force spear.
Vakothu being thrown down the bottomless pit by someone i dont remember but that is still alive.
Sazrael: Oh will you chill out. "All your souls are aquired due to me!", "I participated in everything!", "You owe all your power to me!", "All who do not agree with my policies are going to be exterminated!".Demanding that other players make you a crown.
If that's not a sign of you behaving like a king of the pit, I don't know what is.
Half life, at least one of the harvest moons, pokemon and dragon quest off the top of my head.Dammit.How unusual. It's a bad thing to be knocked unconscious.
Unconciousness is still crap. I only survived my first one 'cause piecewise is nice.
Name a game where being unconscious doesn't lead quickly to death.
And you rolled a 1 for the End roll. Would you rather have been killed outright?
Im not sure, but i think Syvarris already knew that. May be wrong though, either ways is on the original memories of the fallen.You left out The Golden Scholar discovering gravity.Well, I'm not up to date on what's going on really.

And in how many of those is death possible?Name a game where being unconscious doesn't lead quickly to death.Half life, at least one of the harvest moons, pokemon and dragon quest off the top of my head.

Realistically, though, when an enemy wants to kill you and you're unconscious...what're you going to do? He can just slit your throat, death within the minute.
((...Wait, choking prolonged unconsciousness which was due to shock?
Err, there are missing details there, or at least an Endurance roll :(
Anyway, divert the talk back to the game instead of deviating and comparing it to similar 'tropes', please.))

Seeing as we seem to have a split between those in favor of public science and those against, I have a compromise - Those of us in favor of science shall form Team Science, and shall share freely the results of our research with each other, while keeping them secret from those in favor of secrecy. Sound good?I have a vague feeling of deja vu.

I have an idea for Science (not destructive one).Nope. And the word isnt Necti, i know because i was the one to discover it.
Considering that Necti seems to delay an spell, would we be able to use it to combine different spells, in case we don't have enough pool?
I mean:
Player has 2 pool. He wants to become a steel man with magma in its interior. He would need three words for that, but he can say: Necti [target own body] in one turn, then Necti [Steel] in other, then Necti [magma] in the other, then activate the thing.

"WHAT THE HELL."You realize, hes faster than you, right? You should use your magic if you want to survive, he has none.
THROW THE CANDY PIGLET AT HIM AND RUN FOR IT.
Not enough combat words yet.Welp. Overdrive some channeling into speed/dexterity, 1 would be enough to tie out. That should help. Or saying Pioncale (Something). He has no magic, thus if you make yourself something like electricity, theres no way he could damage you. But you can damage him. A lot.
Fifteen/sixteen more...
......Well, damn.Im not sure, but i dont think it will attack you. I would still run away though, just in case... You may want to overdrive some speed.

-I'm going to be playing Derya as someone who should be on medication, but goes off said meds around the time she winds up in the arena. This leads to her freaking out, wondering if any of what she's seeing is real, and having some extreme trust issues. Reactions to people and things will be varied- sometimes, she'll ignore you, others, she'll try to stab you until you leave the room, sometimes she won't stop chasing you until you're out of sight or dead. Sometimes she'll be helpful. I'm using a d20 to determine her moods every turn. Should be fun.

All four of you fighting are in combat regen mode, though only Alish has a non-full pool anyway. Shane will be out of combat regen mode if he isn't in combat next turn.
Head east, through to the spike room and then north to the grand chamber.Im pretty sure if you do you will get assaulted by Dave.

(("You wanna' take on the Mako Man? If you can possibly take down the Mako Man, that makes you eligible for a reward: a certificate declaring that YOU DON'T EXIST! OH YEEEAHHH!"))
Mako Man briefly paused to make a declaration for Alish.Well then come and fight. You will make the whole thing easier, ill take Ocil later.
"YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES ARCANE MAGIC HAS WON A TITLE BELT? I COULD COUNT THAT NUMBER ON MY FINGERS, EVEN IF I DIDN'T HAVE ANY FINGERS, BUT THAT NUMBER IS ZERO.

BRAINS, BRAWN, AND GUTS, THAT'S WHAT MAKES A TRUE CHAMPION, 100%. I'LL TAKE ANYONE WHO SAYS OTHERWISE ANYWHERE, ANY TIME. MAKO MAN, OOOOOHHHH YEEEAAAAHHHH!"
Mako Man ripped off another shirt before running at Ocil again.
I have an idea for Science (not destructive one).Regarding this: I got confused because of the similarity of the actual word for 1 turn after. Definitely someone should try this with the actual word, though.
Considering that Necti seems to delay an spell, would we be able to use it to combine different spells, in case we don't have enough pool?
I mean:
Player has 2 pool. He wants to become a steel man with magma in its interior. He would need three words for that, but he can say: Necti [target own body] in one turn, then Necti [Steel] in other, then Necti [magma] in the other, then activate the thing.
How about that? Would it be possible?
How has no-one commented on my crazy spell yet?
You might want to include a material - It'd be a shame if it failed because it didn't have a complete form.
Or better, Irros Pioncale.You might want to include a material - It'd be a shame if it failed because it didn't have a complete form.
Yeah, use "Myxida". That should work well.

Attempt to attack and attenuate Andy as I ignore beast/daneth unless either approaches upon which Ocil flee eastward.
Dropkick Ocil and then run for it.

Think for a moment before doing some actions!
(Well if you mxydia, I should be far enough away, and or heavy enough to stay away.)If you look at two turns ago, i casted an spell which affected the whole room, so i dont really need to be close, as it will simply appear right next to you, and your form has some very visible weakness...
Action Time!Enjoy your probably last turns. If i dont kill you Dave probably will...
Sounds like this upcoming turn will be fun to GM.It scares me when the GM says that the turn will be fun...
I will note that even if you weren't wearing armor of solid obsidian, the long way is probably too far to go in one turn.

Also, NO ONE GET NEAR BFEL! HE COULD EXPLODE IN ANY MOMENT! WE DONT KNOW WHAT KIND OF POWERS MAY BE INSIDE THAT LITTLE CLOUD OVER HIS RIGHT SHOULDER! Its not Nodi thus i guess that its activation will take over a turn... Hes literally a walking unpredictable time bomb.

Pool is no more. Channeling limits the maximum number of words you can use in a single spell. Max two spells per turn out of combat, one spell in combat.((The thing to keep in mind, is that one of the features of Perplexicon is that more complex words "cost" more to cast than simple short ones. And that's a huge thing, players have to make strategies by counting the words, choosing the best ones, combining short ones and the long ones, et cetera.
Thoughts? Opinions? I won't change anytime soon unless there's overwhelming support.
Pox, you should read the rules once again, half of what you said makes no sense at all.As long as the other half is sound...
And i use the tertiary actions (OFD).
Overdrive, Focus, Dodge.Pox, you should read the rules once again, half of what you said makes no sense at all.As long as the other half is sound...

Also, I don't know what tertiary actions are.
Being fully awake, I realize that having a high Channeling would mean much less.I also dont like the 2 spells thing. Agree with you. I dont care about channeling and pool being fused, though.
I am now opposed to the rule change, for SCIENCE MAN!
Channeling? Pool?I second this motion with full confidence!
Uh, yeah. Magic. You should do...the...stuff. With the things.

Yeah, he's trying to make himself go nuclear pretty much, take out as many people as he can.Thats why i recommended everyone getting out of grand room...
Nah, hes gonna get super low pot, then he's gonna die, via a one legged mako man.Well, that is if TCM survives the next turn (Which should be soon, Toaster onliney). Im gonna attack either him or Ocil, whoever is closer. (Removed)

I POLITELY ASK THEE TO FIND US THIS WORD, SO THAT WE MAY ALL ALLY OURSELVES AS HEAVENMANCERS AGAINST THE ANTI-DERM CONGOLEMERATE!Control word uses a will roll for pretty much anything having to do with its actual effect (Not with the word itself), while controlling creatures is easy, controlling people isnt. Why? Controlling creatures doesnt need a will roll (Atleast, it didnt need one), while people does. Plus to people you need to have the word for Though.
Unless the 'Control' word goes horribly wrong, like making the Heavenbeast control us. Which would be amusing, but not very constructive in destroying our enemies under a rain of heavenfire.
I HAVE JUST HAD THE MOST BRILLIANT IDEA. MAYBE WE COULD USE CONTROL TO REPLICATE THE CHINKBERD! EXCEPT WORKING!Considering some of my plans if i found the control word had to do with converting GWG into a living throne...
I'm not looking for allies, yet. I will probably go with GWG to test stuff first.I didnt say i wanted alliance. However, if you attempt to protect GWG i will eliminate you too.

Seriously, why are the knowledge-hoarders going after the ones who give their knowledge away? Because they want to be in power, they want to stay there. They don't want the new players with no ability to have experimented extensively to be able to depose them, they don't want a level playing field. Those of us with our open-source magic, we make sure everyone knows knowledge coming in--you don't have to be forced into a knowledge alliance with some long-term player to learn the secrets of Myxidia or Irros. Those on top, the ones with the knowledge monopoly, they can use that monopoly to get souls so they survive, do more science, gain more knowledge that they keep to themselves, stay on top.I'm not looking for allies, yet.

Let's stop this. I'm going to be forming the Alliance of Mages for Public Arcane Knowledge (AMPAK). Members of AMPAK promise to make all knowledge they learn public, and to help other AMPAK members when they are in distress. Who is with me?
((*rasies hand*))((You want to be in AMPAK?))

It's actually much better for the game this way. An alliance of weaker mages just needs enough people to shout "propel blackhole" at the overbuffed self-imposed kings-of-the-pit to get positive results.))
((Yes, but a certain degree of finesse is required. If you get forced to fight everyone, then survival rates just plummet. No one can realistically fight the majority of players simultaneously. Picking them off one by one, that's easy. But if they're all opening fire on someone, they'll eventually screw up a roll and get killed by the magical firing squad. To indiscriminately kill brings this risk. But it also likely results in a massive blaze of glory.))But, isnt that the point of the game? Killing all you can?

Which is my apparent fate since everyone seems to have it out for me.So far only two people have called your death. And we may not even make it up to then.
I'm legitimately worried that I'll only have one or two turns before said 'seven vs one' and I won't be able to do anything.
((Yeah, pretty much exactly the same for me. To be honest, the game right now is getting to the point of becoming boring to watch. Five people in a row shouting "Actions". The beginning was a lot more interesting and fun.Who is with me?((I'm not in the game, but... *raises hand* :P))
I think you will have to wait a bit more for my death, dear. Also, i dont find this boring.((Yeah, pretty much exactly the same for me.

Not really. And yes, doing this puts you in danger.When someone accuses you of trying to take over an otherwise fun game, the typical response is to prove the accuser wrong or promise not to do so, not to prove him right.
Also ill kill you because since it seems im the King of the Pit, ill do what i please, and that includes killing you, hopefully, in a horrible manner.
((No, I'm not in the game at all. I just agree with the sentiment.Well, thanks for the moral support. I suppose the AMPAK will only be two for now.
It's actually much better for the game this way. An alliance of weaker mages just needs enough people to shout "propel blackhole" at the overbuffed self-imposed kings-of-the-pit to get positive results.))I'm glad you agree with our mission. We're not really weaker, though; it's more like if the US told North Korea (and incidentally Canada, Australia, European nations, etc) how to make all of its fun high-tech weapons.
But, isnt that the point of the game? Killing all you can? Except if they re your allies.Which is why we are killing you.

Also, i dont find this boring.You're not the one being killed by knowledge monopolists, are you?
Still killing GWG for own reasons, though.
And i wont deliberately target scientists as victims on battle (may do at random) unless they somehow bother me.Explain, please.

((Someone should really turn this game into a King of the Hill type thing.((Who says we can't? We make a candy ball, and the winner is whoever eats it. Do you like the idea?))
...
Or Capture the Flag...))
((I mean officially.((Are you sure you don't want to take it to "Publishing the Perplexicon" thread. Seems a better avenue for interesting ideas than Toaster's game. At least... it doesn't derail the game that way.))
Actually, it's fairly easy to do, the KoH at least. Whoever has the wand is King, and gets a point for every turn of possession.
Which means everybody should probably turn their attention towards murderifying Alish, lest she gain the first KoH point of the game.))
((Guys, great idea; why don't we team up and all just kill Alish? We can go back to murdering each other afterwards.((See? Exactly what I'm talking about! TCM is being very reasonable here. The rest of you (Especially Dave) should stop attacking each other for a moment, and bond over a common enemy. (And then fight over the wand, he he he.)))
My justification is God Complex. If you're equal to everyone else but start going around putting marks on everyone like Il Duce, you're going to end like...well, Il Duce. Look at Derm, the chaos wizard is now being zoned on by a bunch of people. Not putting my opinion on this one, but yeah, that's what happens. I think anyone clowning like that deserves to get taken out by a temporary alliance en masse, it's not just a protection thing but a judicial and moral prospect. Case in point: Every movie/T.V. Show/Book/Game/whatever with someone attempting to control a hierarchy or hierarchy-esque system during a power struggle.))
TCM is being very reasonable here.While the source and the precise conclusion are questionable, the logic is good. Teaming up against a common foe is an excellent strategy.
I probably will do the endgame thing I mentioned earlier (once someone hits max souls no one spawns in- if the max soul person kills everyone else they win, otherwise we resume spawning), except the proposed max (fifty) is probably a wee bit high. What do you think is better? Thirty to trigger endgame? Forty? A different endgame altogether?
So basically, Null. Also, there are atleast two ways to shut a blackhole down without strenght rolls, but only one of them is public right now. I guess you dont realize what is it, though.I probably will do the endgame thing I mentioned earlier (once someone hits max souls no one spawns in- if the max soul person kills everyone else they win, otherwise we resume spawning), except the proposed max (fifty) is probably a wee bit high.

By the time someone gets around 40 or so, won't they have so many stats they'll easily be able to counter and decimate everyone else easily?
I was thinking, what if at a certain number of points, say, 20, the character can transport to another arena to face a final boss NPC thats incredibly tough, and whoever is able to kill it becomes the winner?

weew toasters on, hopefully this shit be ready yo.I already knew he was on. I stalk him. All day long.
Thats.....hot.How you though i have been the first to post after half of the turns?
Eh... not sure I like the idea of a "final boss" fight. I'd be too cruel in my complete knowledge of the book.Fun fact: Null only had twenty souls. Same quantity as you, yet not you and all the other players in the game were able to beat him. Some preparation (Antimagic armor and sword, and some stats increasing tatoos), a big pool (I think it was infinite) and knowledge (He knew all the words, he was Piecewise after all) and he became so powerful that Piecewise had to kill him in the most anticlimatic way possible.
(Turn coming)
((Why when there are no updates Bay12 gets so...wierd?))Updatelessness leads to boredom. Boredom leads to madness(er). Madness(er) leads to weirdness. And weirdness leads to...infractions.
((Why when there are no updates Bay12 gets so...wierd?))((Only the newcomers. Back in my day, it wasn't as deviant.))
So what's happened since I died?The original 2 player battle has evolved into a five player battle, with an special invite: The magma lionbat! And i have got the wand for hmm... Since two turns after Tiruin died?

So I've given up caffeine for 10 days on a dare. Yesterday was headache and cranky, today is tired as hell. I blame any mistakes on that.I did that several years ago when I got stuck in the middle of nowhere for two weeks and just plain couldn't find any. It... well, to be blunt, it sucked. It was some of the most miserable two weeks I've ever had.
So I've given up caffeine for 10 days on a dare. Yesterday was headache and cranky, today is tired as hell. I blame any mistakes on that.I've given up caffeine forever on personal preferences. I get up at 6, no problems after the first 15 minutes or so. Unless I do something and stay up until 45 minutes ago or so...
My wife (the darer) is in week three, and says she felt much better afterwards.((Med note: prefer water instead. For despite it saying 0g sugar or whatnot on the labels, most other ingredients (as trivial as they are) are hidden.
My problem is I love coke too much, especially with pizza. I at least did cut out the sugary ones already for good, and limited myself to just with meals (I'd rather have something else for just "I'm thirsty and need a drink" anyway.)
We'll see how it is come day 10. I think my problem was I got one of those Mio-type things with caffiene in them, and it pushed me from a moderate to heavy user. (Before, I averaged two cans of Coke a day, which is only about 70mg, which is less than your typical cup of coffee.)
"Huh. Best. Science. Yet".MOAR SCIENCEAhh, power. It gives so much, but can make things difficult...
You gingerly poke the saw. Well, it doesn't blow up, and neither do you, but it does make your poking finger feel weak. Perhaps leave it alone for now, and try new magic.
[Pot:6+1] A massive wad of paper shoots straight up. It hits the ceiling and explodes, sending chunks of rock flying. A few hit you, but they just explode too. You stand back up straight from your protective crouch and look up. Well, there's a few cubic feet of rock missing now- huh.
(I'd rather have something else for just "I'm thirsty and need a drink" anyway.)If you care for some anecdote, out of the drinks I've encountered, the best feelings tend to come from various kinds of herbal tea and organic juices. Every time I'm beginning to feel I've overworked or poisoned my body somehow, I can flood it with strong chamomile tea, then either ignore such problems to keep working (if needed), or rest to completely get rid of them.
Try again, imagining a sword with a steel handle and arcane blade:
"Josionp Lodr Jupedem."
While your build allows for high survival, you will literally have MANY ploblems killing anyone with magic at all. I recommend putting atleast one Channeling. I would put Speed to 1 and get 1 potency and 1 channeling. Trust me, its the only way you will be able to fight powerful mages.(I'd rather have something else for just "I'm thirsty and need a drink" anyway.)If you care for some anecdote, out of the drinks I've encountered, the best feelings tend to come from various kinds of herbal tea and organic juices.

Speed isnt really that useful sometimes, unless you re dealing with someone who fires blackholes at you and you want to kill him before he has chance to do so. But if someone fires blackholes at you he most certainly has a body out of some element, making it nigh impossible to kill with fist. And it is hard to obtain weapons without magic, only way to do so is stealing them to someone who does, and we go back to first ploblem. (Or ally someone, but chances are you will be backstabbed), atleast one channeling will let you to defend. And a potency point will stop stuff from killing you without even giving you a chance to do an endurance roll.

Wait, what!? What happened to the fact that I was immaterial?I dont know. What do you think happened?
I know it probably just hit me anyway, but as my immaterialness was never listed at the bottom, I'm just checking it wasn't forgotten about or something.
I know it probably just hit me anyway, but as my immaterialness was never listed at the bottom, I'm just checking it wasn't forgotten about or something.
Nope, I remembered it.
I find this conversation confusing because I don't even remember any "intangibility" happening in the first place. Maybe it only lasted a turn or two or was overwritten by another enchantment?Im pretty sure there have been atleast two people who has used word for Immaterial.
No turn likely tonight, sadly.Im pretty sure its the third.
If a spell or interaction doesn't go like you think it should, there are three possibilities:
1. The spell (or item) doesn't work like you think it does.
2. Mod error.
3. Another player has changed the situation in a way you don't realize.
If you think it's the second case, please tell me and I will double check- I have already screwed up a couple things. Remember, though, that the game is based on information intentionally withheld from you, so be careful when you assume.

Punch tentacle dude in face then shout Pumat.I wouldnt punch him... Hes literally a walking rift to another dimension, punching him wouldnt be good... It would probably be as dangerous as punching me when i was made out of arcane energy.
Reply with Irros Enur, then grapple if necessary.Irros Enur fires a projectile, and normally it isnt that strong. Normal Irros is better if you re at close range, since it creates a rift that can draw him on.
Also, [penis_joke].((That indicates a penis with jokelike qualities. I think you're looking for [JOKE:PENIS]. I can't believe I'm participating in this discussion.))
Shouldn't I get a moving rift?
Even better, Irros X2 then immediate running away.((Has anyone tried Irros Myxida yet, and would it even be possible?
Irros Myxida would create a rift which spits a otherwordly blackhole.Even better, Irros X2 then immediate running away.((Has anyone tried Irros Myxida yet, and would it even be possible?
What I'd like to see is Hell, followed by Black Hole. The black hole is going to begin sucking in the tentacles, which will get ripped off as the rift closes. And then you've got yourself some tentacles you can wave around!))
So it would be tentaclefication instead of spaghettification?Otherwordly stuff usually requires an additional will roll to see if it eats your mind.

Overshots from the past 12 hours include an attempt to make a smaller version of oneself (lead to said self replicating exponentially until the creator managed to stop it at over a thousand minis), breaking a rock (unknown), and creating a seal to merge the minis into one being (unknown).))
I though a one would be something along the lines *You fall from the bridge to the pit* Or that would be a zero?
And what would be most dangerous, a potency MINUS ONE (Possible though the words Potency and Drain, Caltarothcal Shasharasp in Perplexicon) or a potency twenty (Possible too, modifiying your body though will you can increase Potency to +1, then though you mark body with potency for +2, then stats (Up to 50 would mean 48 Potency and 2 Channeling being the best, which would do 16, +2=18, then Focus for +19, get a 1 and you got a 20, and up to 25!)I though a one would be something along the lines *You fall from the bridge to the pit* Or that would be a zero?
The severity of a 1 (and a 6, really) depend on the complexity of what you're trying to do. If you were tying your shoes and you rolled a one, you'd, at worse, pull the lace out of your shoe. If you were trying to walk across a tightrope, you'd fall and probably rack yourself on the way down.
Now a zero, yeah, going over the edge would have been an option. Zeros are simply horrible failures and can easily kill you outright when magic is involved.
Well, it depends on the spell. A potency 25 boosted black hole would probably destroy the arena. In any case, double digit pot rolls are firmly in the realm of "danger to yourself and others."And, if we destroy the arena, what would happen next? And if we do an Irros, would we create a rift big enough as for the eldritch creatures theirselves enter our realm?
If you manage to completely destroy the arena, I'd probably restart it with some changes.CTF? What?
I do have some interesting ideas for a CTF variant.

Capture the Flag.I do have some interesting ideas for a CTF variant.CTF? What?
Oh, oh oh! I have an idea: one side is Zentol, the other is Heaven. Each one have a sphere created through the respective spells that grants power to the team. On each base there is also a contained black hole created through their respective side spells. The winner is whoever team manages to grab the sphere of the opposite team and throw it in its own blackhole.Capture the Flag.I do have some interesting ideas for a CTF variant.CTF? What?
Capture the Flag.I do have some interesting ideas for a CTF variant.CTF? What?
Would the flags be affected by magic? I presume that they can't be destroyed or teleported away, but could something such as a blackhole move them? Or could they be enchanted?If they can be magic affected game would be to easy. Control What im thinking of converts into Control Artifact, then you make the artifact float all the way to you, exploding the hearts of people who dare get close to it.Spoiler: Irrelevant Stuff in response to GWG (click to show/hide)
Yeah, and make them nullify magic, actively, but within a very short range. This way nonmagic speed- and dex- based builds have a place, being able to use the flags for defense, and you can't just brute-magical-force your way into the opposing fort and get away with the flag, as your magic will be useless while you're carrying it.Dexterity is one of the best attributes in the game... Enough of it and no one will be able to touch you. Only blackholes can really harm you then, and those can be avoided if you combine it with will and blackhole control. If a player achieves high enough will and dexterity no force in the game will be able to stop him.
Actually, in the CFT, there should be fixed stats. The only incentive to kill other people should be to slow them.Still, there are words that increase dexterity and will, and you can then use your own will to further increase your speed.
Or, you know, just remove those words that affect stats, because it would be just not fair. Imagine that a team gets words for dexterity and speed, while the other gets words for will and strenght. It would be pretty unbalanced.Actually, in the CFT, there should be fixed stats. The only incentive to kill other people should be to slow them.Still, there are words that increase dexterity and will, and you can then use your own will to further increase your speed.
Have 3 Dexterity, 3 Will and 3 Channeling and if you have time and know the words no one will be able to stop you.
Whole body Agile Will+, and then make a Control what im thinking of Ring, and use that ring to make your bones flexible or something so that its easier to avoid. Speed also works. Dexterity/Speed+Will makes the best combos in game, since if your dext+will you can avoid what they throw at you while closing potentially dangers (Like blackholes) and with speed+will you can explode their brains before they can move a finger.
3 Dext+3 Will=+1 to each. With words, +2. With will, +3 to dext and +2 to will. You re now one of the most dangerous players ingame.
You should consider adopting my system for the CTF Variant. Allow people to have up to +3 or -3 in stats to start with, with an equal number of each, but no points for killing people.I support this.
You should consider adopting my system for the CTF Variant. Allow people to have up to +3 or -3 in stats to start with, with an equal number of each, but no points for killing people.Will is the most powerful stat if you use it correctly... It wouldnt be a good idea to give people a chance to have a +5 to it. -3 Strenght, Increase Will. -3 Endurance, Increase speed. Words+Will would allow you to have a +5 to will and a +5 to speed... Rolls 11 to will, the whole other team explodes.
Well, let's change that to one team with dexterity and will, while the other has speed and strenght. Would this be way more unfair?You should consider adopting my system for the CTF Variant.

Yes. A person with pure strenght cant do a thing agaisnt someone with high will, not even being faster. Let me put it like that: A Person with 7 Will can control three creatures at a time, and 3 Channeling gives him the ability to do an item if he knows the word, which allows him to control everything. Even if that person is slow, you can control literally anything you can imagine, including minds. And for the ´´What im thinking of`` word there is not a limit range, a willmancer could be making heads explode from his base while protected by three powerful summons, no matter how far they are.Well, let's change that to one team with dexterity and will, while the other has speed and strenght.

Rolls 11 to will, the whole other team explodes.
So, having words that increase stats would be unfair, as the words would have to be randomly divided between the groups, which could end up in a situation like what you have just described.Yes. A person with pure strenght cant do a thing agaisnt someone with high will, not even being faster. Let me put it like that: A Person with 7 Will can control three creatures at a time, and 3 Channeling gives him the ability to do an item if he knows the word, which allows him to control everything.

Rolls 11 to will, the whole other team explodes.
Still, you can have an Strong Metal Lion, Speedy Electric Hawk and Winged Diamond Sword to protect you, and not only that, will allows you to increase some of their stats without using words, so you can make a metal lion with +2 rolls to strenght, or a metal lion with +1 strenght and +1 speed...
Those three creatures theirselves wouldnt be so dangerous if they werent a mere distraction. A turn and some luck is all what needs a person with will to make your blood as heavy as quicksilver.
And Will can also heal and do many other things the other stats lack.
Angle: They arent that hard to learn nor rare. If you already have knowledge of what to expect you can learn to use it quite fast. And rare... You only have to test each page once to get a general idea of where it may be. With a team of people that wont take long.
If you only follow Pit of Magic will may seem a useless stats... Tell that to the Sky Pirates of Perplexicon, both of which died when Toaster controlled their minds. Im not sure but i think he made one of them fire a cluster blackhole at the other to then suicide with a dagger.
Hm. I'd almost rather force you to make a choice and stick with it. If I did allow respecs, they would be limited in some way.And would you be able to use Teleportation Circles? Even if you cant teleport orb though them it would allow for some interesting traps, like activating it when enemies are getting nearby and teleporting them just a few kilometers of distance...
I see. Maybe some base stats and flexible ones? Mostly so that we don't get someone with a +3 to speed that can outrun everybody and capture the flag again and again without even geting hit, and without giving the other team a way to counteract this.What im thinking of word has unlimited range. Just make a blackhole spawn over his head, no matter where he is. If he has no strenght or will and blackhole control hes dead.
How about a game of "CTF Escalation"? Killing gives no stat points, stat-altering words are locked or replaced. However, the team that brings the flag home gives the opposing team members, each, an extra point, permanent, for every flag they've lost. So that with the first flag, the enemy gets 1 extra point, with the second they get 3 extra points total, up to a total of 10 extra points with the fourth flag, in a game to five captures. This keeps the game balanced and allows the losing team to catch up, unless the winning team just outskills or outsmarts them.Now one of the teams must go half players to speed and half to will, then create a fusion circle and fuse whole team in a super person.
Yes. A person with pure strenght cant do a thing agaisnt someone with high will, not even being faster. Let me put it like that: A Person with 7 Will can control three creatures at a time, and 3 Channeling gives him the ability to do an item if he knows the word, which allows him to control everything.

CTF is just a generic term for "go in the enemy base and retrieve their MacGuffin and bring it back," so it doesn't have to be a literal flag.Exactly! But for some reason people always understand and picture it as an actual, literal flag. Just check the last few pages of this thread to see proof of this. And there is no good reason why.
Speaking of waitlists, I'd (at least initially) favor short rounds. More work to resort the book each time, but that's effort only on my part.Not sure I understand what you mean here.
Assault could work as well. Have one static team of four or so players starting with a smattering of word knowledge and basic equipment, inside a fortified zone. The other team, which would be dynamic (IE filling from waitlist) and a bit larger (perhaps six instead of four) would be pushing in to destroy a central objective. Hmmm... I like this one.I personally find the assault more interesting than capture the McGuffin. Unless the win condition for the fortified team is a certain kill number.
As for team discussion, Quicktopic could be used, though I agree that stifling discussion a bit is an unfortunate side effect.I feel like you're underestimating the issue. If we divide the entire Perplexicon into... "layers" of "stuff" we end up with several. First, are the actual words spoken. Then, there's the results of these words. Then, the strategy and alliances. And finally, the locations of players.
That is correct. Do I take it you've decided to join the Debate Crew?Yes. A person with pure strenght cant do a thing agaisnt someone with high will, not even being faster. Let me put it like that: A Person with 7 Will can control three creatures at a time, and 3 Channeling gives him the ability to do an item if he knows the word, which allows him to control everything.

Strength/Speed based characters have the initial advantage over Will and even Channeling people in the early game. A hearty supply of words doesn't offer much help early on before the meanings are deciphered. Before they're with a proper arsenal, good wizards are usually quite squishy when it comes to physicality, which means any spell can be deflected with a good dropkick to the face.

Some of these things should unquestionably be hidden to opposing team (words spoken). However, knowledge of any one of these layers confers a meta advantage to the opposing team. Even if you use Quicktopic for discussion, you still have the locations and the things happening on one team's side publicly known.

I just personally dislike having an endless stream of respawning attackers running forward, until at some arbitrary point the kill counter is reached, and the stage ends. Elimination, on the other hand, makes more sense. Or really, if the game actually encourages the attackers to push back and regroup from time to time, a large part of the problem is solved.QuoteAssault could work as well.

The only problem I have with it is what is a good wincon for the defending team? I can only think of two ways- kill a certain number of attackers, or just keep a score of how many turns you last and see what team can do the best.
I see what you're saying here. The problem with hiding more is the more that is hidden, the less interesting the game is for spectators.And that is the the problem I was talking about, wasn't it.
I'd probably just run a test game with an openness level comparable to this one and see how it goes.
Actually, having a physical tank backed up by a caster that can deck you would be quite powerful. Someone with good physical stats and even a simple steel sword could wreak havok on a line of mages that couldn't get a spell out in time.Teamwork! An arcane-body physical character with a heavenly sword and a telepathic mind-control-protecting link to his caster friend, who will also be using shared vision to throw out some spells. What a symbiotic relationship.
The art of being a good mage is preparation. The art of being a good face-puncher is anticipation.NPC's: It depends on how you implement them. And the idea was that they were not controlled by the waitlisters, but by secretly picked Toaster's friends. Honestly, even real life friends could work.
About some concepts that were discussed:
-No NPCs. Players can make sentient beings on their own, there is no point in introducing beings controlled by the GM, as they will eventually be introduced. I'm against waitlister-control of NPCs also, as someone could just join the waitlist to give bad orders to the NPCs to favor one team.
-Team DeathMatch should have as winning condition the amount of kills earned.
-Assault's winning condition, as far as I know, has always been either to accomplish the objective for the attacking team, or by resisting enough time for the defenders. That way the teams can rotate afterwards. A kill-based winning condition may be based in luck (words backfiring during test stage causing many random deaths).
-Captre and Hold: Meh
Somewhere on the map, a truck spawns. This truck has a trailer attached, with a giant bomb on it. Each team attempts to find the truck, and then drive it to the opponents' base, to blow it up. The bomb has a timer too.That sounds really cool.
Also, what about King of the Hill?Don't you think this is already resembling King of The Hill? One person has all the souls, everyone else is trying to get these souls themselves.
You would have a point... If in the game Toaster is speaking about you didnt start with 75% of the words, including control. Really, a pure physical character haves no chance. Fine your fast and strong, but you would have same ploblem than you did here: How would you hurt for example someone made of Arcane Energy? How would you destroy though a circle of Repel Flesh before your brain explodes due to the will dude inside? How would you beat the hordes of creatures that would come?That is correct.

Not really, but I'll do anything to defend the integrity of Physical Characters, who have been victimized enough in the world of magic arenas.
Physical characters are useless.What Nahere said.
Hmm... I wonder.[will:1+2]

[john will:3]
Both you and john spasm violently and collapse to the ground with terrible headaches.
Yeah, if I gave you starting words, they'd be more Steel and Helmet and less Control and Arcane. You'd have to science out the big stuff, and it may be tricky to do so if some muscular fellow keeps bashing your skull in with a club.Actually, you dont need to do opposed rolls, you can just create a earthquake under him, or a blackhole that only affects that person.
Will has some built in limiters. See:Hmm... I wonder.[will:1+2]

And that was a tie. Failing the opposed roll is bad- doing so badly is worse, and may even allow the control to flow the other way.
If it became a real problem, I could just either nerf the scope of its effect (so a bigger action would take longer) or sim in some sort of "will points" that wears you out the more you mentally command things.

But to be fair, that's the case with anything in RtD systems. It's just that Will has the distinction of something that doesn't require much interaction with other skills, and can also be something that most people don't have a lot of points in.

Will isn't going to let you completely break physics. Some amount of conservation of mass will still apply. Willing yourself stronger will make you slower, and things like that. Converting one material to another entirely is outside the scope of will.I do know that to win stats you must sacrifice other, and you dont convert stuff, you just give qualities to things that dont normally have them. And i dont know about Pit of Magic, but in Perplexicon if you had control of it and good enough will rolls you could instantly shut down black holes.
Also, will changes aren't instant. It's not going to help you if a black hole opens up right next to you, for example.

((I am under the impression that an artifact that controls black holes must have a black hole somewhere within its construction. As such, it would rapidly collapse on itself, leaving only a black hole where it once was, yes? All black hole items made so far have followed this principle.))
Sounds neat. Anyone know how to program a really complex RTS?You mean, programming a RTS from scratch, or creating a mod for one?
RTS ideasFirst of all, it would be a Turn-Based Strategy. By default. Sorry to nitpick, but I don't see it working any other way, and it can be an important distinction.
Or you just divide up the army among players, in which case you basically end up with a "gang" (Or, the word I would must prefer to use that is much more applicable to this is "droojinas," (Дружина) which literally means "A group of friends".) warfare. And that can be awesome. But very chaotic, and the fun will be in sending all the gullible minions under your command to slaughter.

Seriously, if there are fixed stats and you start with enough points, 1 will and 38 channeling is ALL you need to create this:
Giant Magic Eldritch Steel Strong Fast Agile Resistant Potency+ Will+ Dragon, Poison Teeth, Magic Draining Crystal Gas Breath, Arcane Energy Necromantic Life Drain Eye Beams, Solid Dark Magma Claws, Solid Acid Horns, Solid Darkness Absorb Strenght Wings.
Considering you start with Control and What im thinking of, a player could literally control anything on the whole map he can think about, and if lucky, he will only need one turn per kill. Or less. A will mage can easily kill a bunch of people in a turn causing earthquakes, or mind controlling one into casting a living hell over them.

Giant Magic Eldritch Steel Strong Fast Agile Resistant Potency+ Will+ Dragon, Poison Teeth, Magic Draining Crystal Gas Breath, Arcane Energy Necromantic Life Drain Eye Beams, Solid Dark Magma Claws, Solid Acid Horns, Solid Darkness Absorb Strenght Wings.
Considering you start with Control and What im thinking of, a player could literally control anything on the whole map he can think about, and if lucky, he will only need one turn per kill. Or less. A will mage can easily kill a bunch of people in a turn causing earthquakes, or mind controlling one into casting a living hell over them.
Key phrase: initial advantage.
It doesn't matter what sort of words you have if you have no clue what they mean. A physical character is not going to be intimidated by a mage going: "I will summon a giant monstrous beast that will kill you! Just give me a few turns to figure out the words, and please stop punching me in the face." Plus, if you're going to devote your Stats to Channeling and Will, you can't be very good at dodging or blocking attacks. All the Will in the world doesn't help you recover from having your face smashed into the ground repeatedly.
How do you hurt someone of Arcane Energy? Find one of the plentiful magical weapons laying around, or get a wizard friend like I did. Circle of Repel Flesh? Just use your increased agility to run away while the slower and squishier mages succumb. How do you beat a horde of creatures? Kill their creator before he or she can summon them.
It was only my own fault for not getting involved earlier, when words had not been fully defined. Physical characters are to sprinters as mages are to marathoners. The victor would be determined based on the length and point of the race.
RTS ideasFirst of all, it would be a Turn-Based Strategy. By default. Sorry to nitpick, but I don't see it working any other way, and it can be an important distinction.
Second, the important part of a strategy like that is controlling an army. In a team based game. An army. Controlled by team. Order. Controlled by Chaos. Does anyone see a problem with this?
Either you make a single person on the team the leader of the army, with every else working as a support and basically doing what the leader says. And spoilers, it will probably only be fun for two players. Unless you make it a two-player game.
Or you just divide up the army among players, in which case you basically end up with a "gang" (Or, the word I would must prefer to use that is much more applicable to this is "droojinas," (Дружина) which literally means "A group of friends".) warfare. And that can be awesome. But very chaotic, and the fun will be in sending all the gullible minions under your command to slaughter.
As for the rooms, it sounds very interesting, but honestly, it doesn't depend in any way on it being a Strategy. I support the rooms idea, but the also work in a Deathmatch, Capture McGuffing, Assault, et cetera.
PS: Apparently, I'm the person who critiques, analyzes, and comments on ideas people have. So... I suppose if anyone has something they want analyzed, you can send it to me. I suppose that's official now.
Will doesnt help you if you re being smashed in the face agaisnt the ground... Oh wait look at that giant lion behind you. Oh wait you looked at it! Your brain just exploded.
Aaaand thats the reason you had so many chances at beating me. Circle of repel flesh wouldnt be a weapon but rather a protection, you wouldnt be able to get though it with your mere fists within a few turns (Depending on mage channeling) since will doesnt require pool, you can destroy people outside while safe of physical characters.
And sprinting doesnt really help you, as once you get the words to define the position you can attack players without the distances matter anymore. *Lava Where im thinking at* now its raining lava over you, or right where you step, or inside your lungs. Same with Control What im thinking of, it can affect anything you can think off, thus you could be controlled even if you re running two rooms away.
Science is gonna be done, considering there are more players at magic than physical, you cant stop that, and words will be learnt. One single turn can find a word that will easily kill physical characters. And so far no magical weapons have been able to hurt arcane energy persons. The only words i remember in Perplexicon capable of heavily hurting Arcane Energy were quicksilver and Arcane Energy itself, but triying to take a weapon out of arcane energy isnt a good idea, even if the hilt seems safe. And a weapon out of solid quicksilver will be too heavy as to be useful, and to toxic as to be safe to use.
Willmancers do not need for speed and avoiding, they can simply create a few creatures to slow enemies down while skulls are crushed, blood boils, eyes fly away like rockets, and persons are controlled into destroying stuff and killing themselves.
Conclusion: Pure-Physical characters will never beat an magical player with same quantity of souls. Magic weapons can be easily destroyed by Dispel Magic.
Also people wasnt original enough with will back in Perplexicon. Did anyone ever try to make a will-modified living magic armor? *Tries to punch person in the face, when suddenly spikes grow from helmet and pierce your hand, then the armor casts a lightning and you re dead.
Also, I find that I can have more fun role-playing physical characters than mages. And you can't beat that.Quoted for Truth; Play as you wish to play.
Guys, I ask you to stop. You're repeating yourself, and it isn't interesting anymore. If you really want to continue this, please take this PM, or even better, call each other. Because forum communication is obviously not doing it well for you.Saying the same things all over again.Repeating the same stuff all over again.Playing the same game.
"Droog" literally means "friend". That's a dumb name for a gang. Дружина is not a gang name, it's a type of war-oriented social structure.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Clockwork_OrangeWas that a pun? Because I'm really bad at them.Or you just divide up the army among players, in which case you basically end up with a "gang" (Or, the word I would must prefer to use that is much more applicable to this is "droojinas," (Дружина) which literally means "A group of friends".) warfare. And that can be awesome. But very chaotic, and the fun will be in sending all the gullible minions under your command to slaughter.
You mean a spot of the ol' ultra-violence?
How I would handle the army thing is simple: When someone makes more critters for the army, they control them. You can tell them to obey someone else, or join this group or whatever, but they start off under your command. So if somebody is off adventuring for supplies, he doesn't control too much of the army, whereas if he's in the castle just making more troops he'll control lots.How would this stop us from having the worst even organisation? If someone adventuring is beneficial to the team at a certain point, there will either be a leader who will point fingers, or the chances are that we won't get what we want when we need. And the more competitive we become, the more we will need to act as a coherent unit, the more it will be a two-person game.

Because for the last dozen posts it's been Sazrael repeatedly telling all the awesome things a mage could do in an apparently broken Perplexicon, to TCM's repost that it all doesn't matter because those things won't be discovered yet. And Sazrael is obviously wrong because it is true that if stuff isn't discovered, then it can't be used. Unfortunately, we seem to have run out of words to say that, so it's time to put the lid on the whole thing.
But I'm winning!You already won! And now it's time to swallow your victory and walk away.
So... If everyone goes their own way, and messes around uselessly, their team won't be very good. And if everyone works together coherently, then their team will be effective.To rephrase: If everyone goes their own way, and messes around uselessly, their team won't be very good. And if everyone works together coherently, then the team will be almost certainly masterminded by one guy who will be making all the decisions, making the other players nothing more than his pawns, or more accurately his minions, and it won't be very fun for them.
I must be missing something, because that seems fairly logical.
Off-topic, has anyone else noticed that TCM is being perfectly logical and not at all silly right now? Just seems odd. PREPOSTEDIT: Nevermind.
Ahh. Well, my reply is just "I don't think that's what would happen.".You believe Aether/Bismuth was an example of a good organisation? ...Okay. No comment on that aspect. But I just do want to point out that they weren't strictly fighting for world supremacy, and the team divisions weren't exactly set in stone.
I'd give examples of why, and probably bring up Aether/Bismuth from the last game, but I have better things to do and I already seem to argue with you a lot.
syv: When were you ever part of Aether?
From our intelligence on Aether, it sounded pretty unpleasant, what with rationed words and orders and stuff. Aether..."Don't kill another Aetherian, share your secrets, try not to die, if you must try to get killed by another Aetherian." And half of those rules were made up just now.

You're speaking in pure hypothetical again. And Science takes time, at best it takes one turn. One turn, plenty of time to get shoulder-checked from the other side of the room. And that's supposing you find a good word immediately, instead of finding "flower" or "yellow", which are just as likely as finding anything else. The physical characters does not need to have any set-up to do an uppercut or headbutt. If you set up the hypothetical that will-based characters can easily summon up familiars, I can do the exact same and say that physical characters can bash you in before you could get a decent word out.
I made a physical character. He only could hurt and killed because of physical moves. And his killer died attempting magic.
Starting mages are weaker than physical characters. They have the potential to overpower physical characters, but in all situations with a new mage and new melee character battling, all variables make the former weaker than the latter at that point. The option of the mage is either to try to fight back, run away, or attempt a spell, which might be something good, and then might be properly cast.
Also, I find that I can have more fun role-playing physical characters than mages. And you can't beat that.
(What were my stats again?)
Also Harry just used all the points on strenght... Does he realize that he still has to do endurance rolls whenever he absorbs stuff? Just throw a giant metal cylinder or something at him and he should implode.

Second, I should note something on form rolls, since they're all the rage these days. Here's a table of what happens from your pot roll:
0 and below: Very bad things
1: Bad things
2: Nothing
3: Instant activation, 3 turn duration
4: One shot form
5: Activate at will, reusable
6: Instant activation, activate at will, reusable
7: Instant activation, always on
8+: Permanently on, unless you figure out how to get rid of it (And the higher the roll the harder it is to get rid of)
Do note that if you roll a 4 or 5 the form will not activate unless you specifically say to activate it.

Arguments:
1) If it crushes matter, then there would be at least a point of an incredible wheight where the black hole used to be. hat point would inmediately fall and maybe break the floor.
2) Black holes do not dissapear over time. They keep growing as long as there is mass to absorb.
3) People made of black hole-thing has to do an endurance roll upon absorbing stuff, thus absorbing stuff weakens them, unless they roll high enough
4) As it is not "antimatter", but an impossible physically but mathematically feasible "negative matter", that, as negative numbers and positive numbers, negates its opposite.

No subtle reminders here or anything.
((I dont know the meaning of the word satirical. seriously i dont, is it like jesting?((More or less.))
Anyways a wormhole between the arena and empty space aka vacuum is the only explanation that allows for sustained attraction, ignoring gravity and the dissapearance of absorbed mass.((Why would it not destabilize from taking in large amounts of air?))
Due to the fact that the wormhole links to vacuum the matter sucked through would simply be flung into the depths of space allowing for a practically infinite amount of matter to be absorbed.
As it is an energy based phenomenon it would be largely unaffected by gravity and therefore would not fall after creation.
Also having to make endurance rolls when absorbing large objects could ostensibly be caused by them impacting the wall of the space/time tunnel causing it to destabalise and possibly collapse in on itself.))

The only reason it works is because a little demon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell%27s_demon) makes it work.((Well, that's no fun to talk about. Besides, the theory doesn't work.))

Also guys should we summon Null? Last time to do it someone had to say ´´Zentol Mind`` then Zentol told you some words which created a humanoid. When Toaster reached twenty souls, the humanoid killed himself and from his blood surged the portal that brought Null here, perhaps we should try it here?

No one ever actually said those words. I almost did, but chickened out. They were Zentol Halthel Concoteael Conthal, if you don't remember, so Other Human Magic Large.Now someone must do Many Boosted Arcane Whereimpointing. Why one when you can have two? Or three? Or over nine thousand?
The clawed human came from here (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=119572.msg3865455#msg3865455), and the words for it are right there.
That spell I used to kill Possibly was just Boost Arcane WhereI'mPointing. I found WhereI'mPointing early and used the hell out of it.
So yeah, his appearance was plot device.

I've been using A pattern for science, no bloody clue if it is THE pattern but eh.Welp i found the pattern.O RLY?
Last thing is your opinion.
Also, you cant kill, as i said, seven mages at once. And a mage might beat a physical character, overall considering they can overdrive.
You can bash one person. Then what? In a turn seven people with magic can easily do enough science as that will 99% find a word able to kill phisical. And then you wont stand a chance agaisnt most good mages.

Man, those were the days.
Oh don't you even start with that I've been waiting fucking months.I just want to say, I'm actually glad Derm is back, if you will excuse the pun, he kinda DID get shafted... but mostly that waitlist. Owch. Might pay to be more careful with that murder in the future. I've injured myself by NOT thinking of the extra possibilities of my form and the spells I was casting... I'll have it covered soon tho.
reasons not to kill derm as soon as he spawns:Damn Straight!
1) sense of fair play.
2) first row seats to the apocalypse.

And im saying lets do not give him time to charge up. And Tomcost isnt very experienced with the game either. A random dude killed Ocil, just like Tomcost (Random number N2) killed...

Although I dislike the premise of "everyone kills everyone", I have to ask. Is there even a point of not doing that in an explicitly deathmatch game? It's not like Derm killing everyone is significantly different from someone else killing everyone.Has GWG said before, Derm has... talents.

There's one way to find out.
That'd be a pretty cool fight.((Uh, when the players reach the top five in the waitlist, send them a pm to send you a pm of their spawn location? I never said to make the spawn location public.
Letting players choose where to spawn is interesting, but has a couple issues. When do they spawn relative to the death of the prior player? If "instantly" as it is now, then you have to wait for those players to choose a spawn location. If "Next turn" then there's the chances of other players moving/acting to screw with that. I prefer the flow of just picking a safe-ish spot and letting them go.

((And it would be boring then. The chaos that will come will be way funnier than just killing everyone.

Magic Pool Batteries: Small Golden Knife Inject Magic. Basically a small knife which you use to make a small wound on yourself, then it injects some magic onto your body, regenerating your pool.This will make you explode, not regenerate magic.
No, the word we know and GreatWyrmGold though magic isnt magic, its arcane energy (Perhaps they were fused in PoM?). Magic its a word which when used alone causes random effects, when used in summonings caused them to be able to cast magic, and when used in forms it either burns you real bad or gives you true spellcasting power (Extra potency and the ability to harm your own body for extra channeling). It can also be used to make things like the one i said if you re original enough.Magic Pool Batteries: Small Golden Knife Inject Magic.

((Well, as this is a different game, I don't want to think in Perplexicon terms. And, considering how the aliens are able to cast magic, the word has already been discovered, or you don't need it to make a humanoid cast magic.))BigFoot discovered the true Magic word, or apparently seems so considering last turn he summoned a wooden table imbued in MAGIC (Not Octarine), and he also summoned the Replicators.
I know an spell that would kill every single person except you in a turn (Not counting turns for preparation)... Ploblem: It needs around 30 channeling... And circles.((You truly are a master of the hypothetical. If I had more than thirty points to toss around, and I didn't get them incrementally but all at once, (which would mean I wouldn't need to balance out my stats,) I would be able to destroy the entire arena with my bare ass. That's not exactly an achievement, sweeping death lasers or not.))

Whole-Body Fast Agile Arcane-Energy Dispel/Drain/Absorb Magic.
Horray for being Arcane Energy with a bonus to speed and dexterity and magic resistance.
Dispel Magic, remember? The blackhole would shut down, if it works as i think. Just look at Null Sword. Any magic, wether it be a fireball, or a arcane beam dissapeared in contact with it. So unless an army of people decides to jump at me until all my arcane energies goes off it would be kinda hard to hurt me.One spell: black hole.Not indestructible but very hard to destroy, atleast.I could become indestructible with 6 Words...

Then it would depend on if the black hole is a magic phenomenon, or if it is a physical phenomenon. Still, we could just shoot lava at you until your arcane energy fades away.Since Dispel isnt known yet in here ill say what would happen in Perplexicon:
I'm not saying that it is not a good plan, just that it is not perfect, like the blackhole plan.Blackhole plan? Either ways i think i may have the way to form a stable (Non dissapearing) blackhole and maximize his potential making it dangerous for enemies but safe for yourself.

Horray for being Arcane Energy with a bonus to speed and dexterity and magic resistance. Remember Null Sword? Now apply it to the whole body, with bonus to dexterity and speed. Endurance and Strenght are not that neccesary being Arcane, since what i touch explodes without strenght rolls.
And being agile and fast absolutely doesnt help that. Overall considering you can overdrive 6 channeling or cast magic yourself. You start with nine points. 6 To channeling three to speed. +1 Speed. After form +2 speed +1 dext. Overdrive 6 channeling to speed (+4 Rolls) and its very probable by the time they realized you move their head isnt there anymore.Easy. Cave-in.Not indestructible but very hard to destroy, atleast.I could become indestructible with 6 Words...

Losing all your pool to get a guaranteed success to a single roll (well, mostly guaranteed) is a pretty silly strategy, considering that you have a -1 to strength, -1 to endurance and a net 0 for dexterity (which you just so happen to use for dodging) to back it up, not to mention a -1 to potency if you for some reason would like to use your magic in combat.
Also, giant puddle of mercury. An arcane energy person's worst enemy.
Also, roll a 6+4 on speed. Run into wall. Explode amusingly. Have fun rolling for endurance.
Any chance you lot can take this somewhere else? Reading pages of posts that boil down to "Nuh uh" and "Uh huh!" isn't particularly entertaining for, well, anyone.The idea was to take this to Perpublicon, but seeing how i was the last dude to post there and i dont want to double post :P and also, that you cant understand the beauty of such a debate is not my ploblem. Who knows, perhaps it could save your life someday to know the weakness of some of those spells.

I don't think you'd get a speed roll at that point, just an endurance one.Yeah, you ca't exactly dodge the ceiling.
Just like you don't seem to realize much of ours!-snip-You dont seem to realize most of what i have been speaking of.
And unless that giant puddle of mercury is natural it will simply dissapear when you get nearby due to Dispel Magic.Once you summon something, it has ontological inertia. And wouldn't the quicksilver reflect the dispelling magic?
You can start with 6 Points on channeling and three on some other stats you think you will need, personally i would take speed or dext.Congratulations! You now have -1 to the rolls stopping you from dying when you get hit!
Thearpox: +2 to Endurance is also nice. And you can get a speed roll to kill the person who would cause the cavein before he actually does it.Where would you get the +2 to End?

Assuming that the black hole/attractive force/whatever attracts with not magic, and doesn't use magic to generate the attractive force (and that Myxidia isn't just a wormhole to a vacuum which draws you in via suction or something like that), you would also need to be completely immune to magic instead of just being able to "turn off" the magic.

And that is how Sarzael absorbed himself to death.
Or we could throw big objects at you and watch the massive explosions tear you apart--being able to generate explosions with a touch does not mean that you are immune to explosions.
Or we could just encase you in something like a repulsive-energy-steel cage. Who cares if you're alive, if you can't do anything?
Or we could find a nonmagical, nonmaterial attack. Or, depending on how the Dispel Magic Body spell works, we might just be able to take control of your mind or body and go from there.One spell: black hole.Dispel Magic, remember?

Perplexicon Base doesn't exist as a game anymore, and probably never will. Revisions have taken place, even in perpublicon.I know of atleast three games with Perplexicon Base/Near Base.
Stop talking about it.
Nivim: Why should i? While i agree with going to Perpublicon (A better thread to discuss Perp-Base), i wont post there until someone else does first.BLAH
It's not really a beautiful debate. To be frank, it's getting extremely annoying, as it is based purely on hypotheticals, "nuh-uh" and "uh-huh" sounds on both sides, and, in my case, not being able to leave a completely pointless conversation well enough alone due to a lapse in personal judgment.But hypotheticals are fun...okay.
But I like pointing out that Sarzael lied!You see, this right here is why this isn't really a debate at all. It's essentially a bunch of people pushing their own personal interpretations of rules that are extremely vague at best on each other. It's not really contributing anything at all. To anything.
Ahhh, the peace of getting exploded and mangled without discussions, just like the old days. (Or that's what would say a Perplexicon veteran)I'm not against all discussions, though! It's just that the ongoing one had a tone and flavor that didn't really fit here, I think.
BTW, the word that gave my Alien Replicator friends magic... is NOT the same word that made my lightshow wooden plank. (O_o)((Well, as this is a different game, I don't want to think in Perplexicon terms.

And as i said, im actually speaking on Perplexicon concepts for this kind of spells. Many of the concepts of Perplexicon work similar in here though, so some should work.
THE AUTHORITY HAS SPOKEN! ;DI could become indestructible with 6 Words...
I bet you can't.
Ahhh, the peace of getting exploded and mangled without discussions, just like the old days. (Or that's what would say a Perplexicon veteran)...
While we wait, let me remind the players that when you use magic, your stance, gestures, and thoughts may influence the outcome of your spell. If you're shooting for something, be specific and you may be more likely to get it.... Now I feel like an idiot wasting all of those turns on random magical effects. Why did I not do this?
Really oddball combos may require a perfect 5 roll to get exactly what you want.
((Hmm, maybe I will cause a massive cleanup of people))

1. "Arcane Energy" causes explosions and destroys stuff. If the destruction causes the expplosion, we would expect more energy to be released; thus, some energy is being lost.
2. Magic inherently violates physics by creating matter and energy from nothing...
3. ...unless there is a sort of "cosmic battery" that powers magic.
4. Thus, the arcane energy might transform matter into energy for this "cosmic battery".

((Yeah, it's almost as if he's worried that everyone will try and kill him again. I wonder why.))((I think it's more that he's worried that everyone will try to prevent him from killing everyone again.))
(( 1). Yes, I noticed he's just making preparations. Doesn't make the lull any less hilarious.Bigfoot also made himself weapons and a shield. This is the calm before the storm. Just like when Derm died, there were some turns of peace... Then bam 6 players battle+magma lion. (Fun fact, more people died outside of the battle than in the battle itself)
2). It's not just Derm that's not killing other players. No one has been attempting to kill other players for the last several turns.
Tomcost, the many-souls, has been doing research and environmental management.
Bigfoot, the second-biggest, has been focused purely on research. I mean for god's sake, he and Tomcost has just passed each other, and Tom even made an effort to warn him what was about to happen to make sure he was all-right.
Then we have several people fighting with Urist. And not a single person actually fighting against another player.
It's like we reached a critical mass of nice people who want to do Science. I know that it's got nothing to do with Derm, but, well, he isn't killing anyone for now either, and it's still hilarious that that critical mass coincided with his reappearance.))
((Anybody else finds it hilarious that the waitlist has been moving very quickly for the last few months, but has completely ground to a halt ever since Derm arrived? I mean seriously, we've had exactly zero deaths from player action, and the two that we did have, were both from inactivity.((It's almost like he was accused of being an avatar of omnicide before spawn and wanted to avoid that reputation by not killing or threatening anyo--))
All hail Derm, avatar of peace!))
Well, see, this is what we call a setup for something called a multikill.((Dammit derm, I'm trying to help you!))
Then we have several people fighting with Urist. And not a single person actually fighting against another player.((Also people fighting with a guy summoned to fight Urist. And I think that one guy, the man with the painfully failed golden rocket punch, was trying to attack Urist.))

Science (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y0J_L5EHmsRtuJjiAbbhUzmrfKmEWPbK2eiaaO1sMCE/edit?pli=1)!))
By the way, I forgot to thank Tomcost for the warning, so... thank you!(( 1). Yes, I noticed he's just making preparations.

To be fair, even in the original there were lulls of peace interspersed with bouts of murder. Don't worry, for the murder will come.I suppose it is a fair point, after all, I DID eventually kill people. Surprisingly effectively. Granted one of them wanted it.

Still. I just thought people would band together AGAINST Urist, not FOR Urist. Huh. I'm just waiting for that moment his "allies" are his best next target.
((The aliens can just cast 2 pool spells, with enhanced, maybe they could fully replicate! And then you could beat Derm in that!))Let me just say that Toaster casted an Enhanced Arcane-Energy Where im pointing at and he casted a beam that desintegrated the target and made a big big big hole in the floor.
Thinking about it, I might just have one of the greater collections of words at the moment. Huh. Not entirely sure how mine compares to GWG's....Mine's public. You can look at it. Wish I could say the same of yours...
@GWG: Super-Sci-High-Five!@Bigf00t: Super-Sci-High-Five!
WHY THE HECK DO I HAVE A SUDDEN DESIRE TO BUILD A LIBRARY IN A DEATHMATCH GAME!Just build it OOC like I did.
Well, you know the word for Many, one of the most powerful words. Now just do Many (Magic/Word you used for aliens) (Strong material, arcane energy?). If you knew the word for Enhanced you would create the end of all the things.((Dammit Sar.))
((Too complicated, really. The "Where I'm thinking" word wouldn't make things easier?)But if you make it this way it only has the initial cost and every other time its free. Unless you want to waste 9 Pool every time you want to use this spell, this would make it cheaper, as you would only have to pay an initical cost of 10 or so, and since every other time it will be the creature you summoned casting it instead, you would have free attacks of total destruction.
((Anyway, it still requires a mechanic from the original Perplexicon))Circles. But, in Perplexicon, the world was way bigger. Since in Pit of Magic the arena is way smaller, circles wouldnt really be needed anymore.
((With a sufficiently complete wordlist and 3 pool you can become immensely powerful using the old perplexicon system.Enhanced (Attribute increase word?) And i also know the increasing pool, is one of the things i did in one of my spells theories.
Hell i knew a way to give myself +2 dex, strength and endurance as well as constantly increasing pool, i just didnt know all of the necessary translations.
No i will not tell you how, theres a chance i may be able to do it later this game.))
Equipmentizing, HOOOOOO
Picking up the wood, he smiles, and starts walking up the north exit of the spike room, bidding the moose goodbye, and pointing his bit of wood (he has left the foam behind) onward while saying a newfound phrase.
"Well that was a horrible failure I think that the correct term is Pioncale Puidina!"
Eo activates the markings and flees.
"Greetings, short-and-bearded citizen! Are you unharmed?"
Talk to the dwarf.

((Curse his sudden but inevitable...well, it isn't really a betrayal, but still!))Because losing one arm wasnt enough, now your gonna lose the other too O_O.
"What! You were a villain all along! Well, I cannot believe that I was fooled by such a ludicrously underhanded and simplistic trick! You, Urist, have revealed yourself to be an agent of evil, and hence I will respond with overwhelming force fitting your betrayal! You will regret the day you turned from the path of good and down the trail of evil and greed! Prepare yourself, villain, for your defeat is at hand, as you have revealed your true colors to SCIENCE MAN! But, first I will ready myself!"
Remove axe. Say words.
"Pioncale Bical-Uticat-Villognio-Swinat!"
Attack with axe.
How am I "trying" to lose the other one?I didnt say you were triying, you just have an magma axe inside it.
I'm trying to get my regeneration. I'm just trying a way that doesn't turn me into an orc, especially since this also lets me try something...new.
And we're back. You may now resume your regularly scheduled magical murder.Hey! The dragon thing is just how I handled it with a friend here! (I made a mini arena for him to science and die, he ended up with a bronze-dragon pet, with it's own kill count, dual whips (one a 6+1 crystal whip, other iron) one (left) arm made of hair (5+1 = rhino-horn) One silver (right) leg and an alien face. It was a good day.) I approve.TURN THING = SUBMITTEDShake your turn thing, oh yeah.
[Pot:5+1] Another hunk of gold. You can't really tell anything special about this one.
[Pot:1+1] A tiny chip of bronze. Too tiny and crappy to test anything.
[Pot:1+1] See previous spell, except replace bronze with obsidian.
-The dragon glares at you then opens its mouth, which starts glowing. Oh dear.-
What's that second word?If you are talking to me, it is the first word on page 53.
He asked you for the word "podoinde", but it actually is in the book, so I don't know why did he ask.What's that second word?If you are talking to me, it is the first word on page 53.

And yes, he will die. And he will come two deaths after me. Oooh im gonna enjoy that.((Why? Beating up the Public-Science-Man in the Spec-Evo forums isn't enough?))

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!Ftfy
A couple hints: Remember that you're basically making a sentence with magical words. If you make a phrase with words that simply makes no sense, a part of the spell may "burn off" and take no effect. If something is directly contradictory, one of the contradicting parts will take effect and the other is ignored. If you get a poor roll, you may not get all the cool effects that a success would have given you. With the "concept" words, be creative and you may get something sweet.Oh this nearly HAS to be with how I've been wasting my turns.. *groan*
Overcharge my speed with my two current pool and try do dash past Derm before he has a chance to do anything. Hope that the dragon sees him as a bigger threat.You just keep on coming up with clever ideas don't you? ;D

It is the norm I suppose, I just congratulated him because his action choice took me by surprise, most notably not many people seem to be using the overcharging method, and he is going for +2 in his speed stat to give him a +1 roll, which is something I'd forgotten about in the midst of all my science :-[-snip-((So we are completely discounting the possibility that Derm is gonna be the hero in a force armor, and challenge the dragon?

As Urist runs, he pulls something out of his backpack. It's... a cat?((Looks like...the cat is out of the bag.))
[Bigf01t Pot:1+1] A wisp of grey fog appears but blows away. Damn it.((Better luck next turn. Geez, two 1's in a row? Thank Zentol you had that +1 Pot...))
[Bigf01t Pot:1+1] Something made of arcane energy appears, but it fizzles out. Damn it!
You set aside your arcane tools again and attempt to will the two grey fogs- still present, you note- to activate. They don't. Damn it!!
FML.More like Flesh Cat Explode Many Flesh Cat Explode (Whatever they explode into)
RE-MAGIC. AGAIN.
((Also, I'm guessing Explosive Flesh Cat Machine Many Explosive Flesh Cat? Probably a better way, but that's what strikes me ATM.
I've got a nasty little surprise for the bearded bastard should he come into the Bottomless pit room. Inspired by his own bag-o-tricks. ;D))
((I'm willing to bet the cat bomb had less words. Something like "breaks apart" involved, methinks))No, that was made with the word Explode.
Maybe that last word isn't there, and it defaults to kabooms?I was thinking about the exact same thing.
I am here Still dont know what the hell is going on. !!FUN!! is coming((I swear that if discover the control word, I will make you a !!doctor!! staff.))
Doctor staff? Flesh Bone and Blood control are the required for a decent healing control item.I am here Still dont know what the hell is going on. !!FUN!! is coming((I swear that if discover the control word, I will make you a !!doctor!! staff.))

((Damn, I was going to block that door after I got through, well played.))I told you how to survive the dragon, but did you listen to me? Noooo! Now THOU SHALT PROBABLY DIE!
Dodge!
Wing snake staff (of) control flesh should work, i made an iron ring that controlled fire using a similar method in the original.Control word allowed you to control every other MATERIAL used in the creation on the original.
*Bzzzt* wrong, what each item controls is or was reliant on spell formation.Wing snake staff (of) control flesh should work, i made an iron ring that controlled fire using a similar method in the original.Control word allowed you to control every other MATERIAL used in the creation on the original.
Thus an iron ring of control fire would control both iron and fire, did you ever try to control iron with it? And controlling wings and that stuff wouldnt work there since it only allowed you to control materials and certain concepts.
Either ways, final combo of items:
Amulet/Necklace of Control what im thinking of: Control everything anywhere!
Ring of Dispel What Im Thinking of: Dispel any spells anywhere!
Ring of Drain What im thinking of: Drain life and magic and strenght and speed and lots more of stuff anywhere! (This is specially useful combined with the Necklace, drain will to make controlling easier!)
Make those three with a cool body, good stats and some other useful stuff (Living armor that can cast spells enhanced though will and words, weapons that inject weird stuff like ´´Liquid Crystal`` on enemy bodies) a cool base (For example a living tower or something) and some guards (Since armor and tower are living, if you know word to increase will you can make them control stuff too, and thus you would be able to control a infinite number of creatures, just imagine: You control two creatures. Those two creatures control four. Those four control eight. Since you control the two that control the four, you can order those two to order those four to order those eight to attack enemies) and you have won.
Either ways, final combo of items:

Oh well. What im pointing at works too. Because that one does actually exist, RIGHT?Either ways, final combo of items:

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then pulls out a gun and shoots the waiter. "Why?" groans the injured man. The panda shrugs and walks out, tossing a badly punctuated wildlife manual over his shoulder. When the waiter consults the book, he finds the explanation for this behaviour. The entry for "panda" reads: "Large black and white mammal native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

By the way, do you two (Tomcost, Bigfoot) share your word lists? Because if nothing else, it seems like you guys made an alliance, which isn't a bad thing.
Having everyone except for the Science pair injured was also very entertaining, as was the fact the the creatures created by the said pair + Urist have been dominating the arena. Also, I wonder if you two should accept Vakothu into the "alliance," would certainly he group my favorite characters all into one bundle.))

The jaggedness is because of, well, I don't have any idea of how to remove it, it's done from raw data, its supposed to look like that.My point was that there is not a consistent Death Rate. Deaths tend to happen in bursts, and certainly not consistently.
You temporarily phase out of reality. [GM SHIELD ACTIVE]Suggest the GM add someone from the waitlist to keep Fun levels up to par. Conceal that my true motive is to increase the number of players.
I'd rather keep spells as they are the way they are, and also add an "Enchant" word. "Enchant Hover" might make something you are touching hover. "Enchant Fire" might make a flaming sword. Stuff like that.I think i alteady know that word, i tried using it to turn my greatsword into an arcane blast but i futzed the roll so i dunno if it is.
As to the other ideas...go nuts. I'd make resisting magic a Will roll in general, regardless of if it targets you or your equipment. Justify it with a Manton Aura or something.

Yes, now that the structure is made, it's a matter of typing two numbers each update (will update once someone dies)The jaggedness is because of, well, I don't have any idea of how to remove it, it's done from raw data, its supposed to look like that.My point was that there is not a consistent Death Rate. Deaths tend to happen in bursts, and certainly not consistently.
Incidentally, any chance you'll continue the Death Graph?
I have Reasons for not doing that.I like the current system. If the word for enchanting an item works, then there would not be necessary any change, you just need to know the word to change already existing stuff.
Since we're at the point I can talk about words a bit more openly (seeing as 71 turns have gone past), I'm considering a bit of a change.
Up until now, pretty much every single spell that does something results in a physical object (the glows, ley lines, and grey fogs being the exceptions seen so far.) This is because I interpret the words heavily toward creating a physical object. That's cool and all, but what about the cool spells that can be done that don't result in a physical object?
Let's take a word that has been seen- Hover. Previously, if you said "Hover Steel" you'd get a chunk of steel that just floats there. That's cool and all, but what if you wanted to make an existing piece of steel float? In the original, you'd either mark it with the hover word or use a control item.
What if, instead, "Hover Steel" made steel in the target area float?
That you know of, there's no pure spell way to do that. I think it might be interesting to alter the way words similar to "Hover" to act differently if not bound to a form. "Hover Steel Cat" would still get you a floating steel cat, but if you said "Steel Cat" then "Hover Steel" then the cat would start floating (for a time- not permanently.) Now if you just said "Hover," nothing would happen as it does now.
Let's take a couple more example words that may or may not exist: Repair and Convert. Now, if you said "Repair Flesh" you'd just get a hunk of flesh that didn't do anything special- words that don't make sense in the spell just "burn off." But I think everyone would like that to be a heal spell, right? Now, if you said "Repair Flesh Staff," you'd get a staff of flesh that healed flesh you smacked with it.
Convert would require two element words to work. "Convert Steel Air" would make that steel sword being waved at you a lot less threatening. "Convert Steel" wouldn't make sense and would get nothing (though steel in the target area might shudder or something to give you a hint.)
The only question is what is a reasonable defense against this action? Assuming a "Break" word exists, "Break Flesh" would be a general all-purpose attack spell. Is that just an End roll to resist? What about "Break Steel" against that nice steel armor set you're wearing? Do I give the items an End roll? A Will roll is a sensible first suggestion, but it really makes no sense in context for equipment.
Thoughts? Opinions? Derisive laughter?
Then why do we need a whole new system?I'd rather keep spells as they are the way they are, and also add an "Enchant" word. "Enchant Hover" might make something you are touching hover. "Enchant Fire" might make a flaming sword. Stuff like that.What if that word already existed?
((quite high if you also have the requisite solid fire, bucket of water and adequate strength and dexterity.))Then why do we need a whole new system?I'd rather keep spells as they are the way they are, and also add an "Enchant" word. "Enchant Hover" might make something you are touching hover. "Enchant Fire" might make a flaming sword. Stuff like that.What if that word already existed?
By the way...what is the chance of us being able to make (say) an anvil, some wood, some floating steel, and a hammer, then making a floaty suit of armor from that?
((If you say, repair flesh, in this old system, wouldn't it repair some flesh? Or create flesh that repairs stuff? I don't see anything wrong with the current system))
So, it would be mainly a matter of "coolness"? We will eventually find a way to make anything cool.((If you say, repair flesh, in this old system, wouldn't it repair some flesh? Or create flesh that repairs stuff? I don't see anything wrong with the current system))
It'd create a lump of flesh that may repair flesh if you hit it. The issue is how vague it becomes.
On the other hand, if you said "flesh repair staff" then you would get- under either system- a staff that could repair flesh it smacked.
EDIT: The lack of a form is really the key issue. Giving the element a form solidifies the magic that exists. Without it, it's kind of lame. Giving someone a flesh control... lump because they said "flesh control" isn't something I really want to do.
I'm curious as to how you interpret multiple materials in a single item.
Like, let's say you had Steel Wood Sword. Theoretically, you'd get a sword made equally of the two materials, but you had been aiming for a wooden hilt and a steel edge. Of course, it has no in-game value... which is kind of sad, I'd like to see a trader or something that gives value to such a thing, and "thinking" the result is the fix, but... IDK. I just think there should be a way to clarify that. Because, there's so many ways to imply a Wood/Steel Sword.
And it's even worse with ranged things. Does the gun fire wood bullets from a steel frame?
Argh.

He used a full body form, which works with whatever is left. You used a leg form, which didn't have anything to target. If you had half a leg and use the leg form, you'd get half a leg in the new form.I was referring to when I also turned into a drake and promptly bled to death.
Oh, I see what you mean. He turned his leg into fire, which cauterized the sever point. Said cauterization still exists, so he's good.Still, did her really expect the limb to come back?

"Sa'las: God of amputation. The Limb Collector."
The image on the opposing page shows a strange sort of being with a hard, geometrically shaped, faceless head, thin, talon tipped hands and a body hidden beneath a long robe. Out of it's back grows what could only be described as a tree made of human limbs, bundled legs and arms for a trunk and branches. The symbol at the bottom of the page is a bonesaw.
"Sa'las is the collector of limbs, both accidental amputation and purposeful. With the flesh of living men he grows the tree, the fruit of which is said to be the minds of new doctors yet unborn. Despite is appearance and ghoulish work Sa'las is a benevolent being, taking only the already severed limb, burnt in offering, as his payment. When he is prayed to or his sign is marked upon limbs about to be amputated or near the stumps of those already severed, he is said to injure swift recovery in return. Beyond this, his work brings new life or at least an aspect of life, where as many others in the pantheon simply gorge or enjoy themselves."
Regardless, FIRE "ARCANE COMPENSATOR" at the moose-thing's face, should slow it down/distract it, or make it hopefully rampage in it's room!You should be careful- technically, the moose-thing is the steel non-aggressive one near you, not the magma bull your context indicates.
In any case, bombs away!
[Bigf01t Dex:3]
Your shot goes wide and smacks the opposite door frame again. The bull is still caught in the blast radius, though.
[Bull End:3] It stops, bellows, and shakes its head several times. Good thing too, because one more smash and it's in the pit room.
Say Pioncale Rogran, because it appears I am destined for that anyway.((I laughed))

I am starting to love this Flashbang launcher! It wasn't what I was going for, but awesome never-the-less!
Also @Toaster, THANK YOU for correctly inferring my intent, I really didn't need to aggro the moose, how uncharacteristicallynot saddistickind of a GM!
TURN:
Set aside the "Compensator" for a moment...
If I can stay in one-word range (just inside the spike room, presumably with the bull stuck in the door to the pit room:
"Echapl Echapl"
At the bull, also pay attention, does repeating the same word in a sentence multiple times amplify it's effect relative to normal? (Is "Echapl Echapl" > "Echapl"? Draw on my experience of seeing single word use of elements for comparison.)
If the bull is reluctant to enter that range, or it doesn't seem safe for me, face bull and fire:
"Enur Echapl"
If I can safely swing the arcane hover-hammer at the thing's head from behind the door, go for it!
EDIT: One last thing, was I close enough to hear the words that made the magma bull? Does the alien even SPEAK it's words? If I heard the words, a PM with contents would be awesome, if not that's fine.

((When i get a larger pool i shall summon an evil bunny that reanimates severed limbs, just because.))I would be interesting in what words you would use.
Somehow i dont think that would work, the closest word to animate would be either alive or moving... so you would get something akin to a crab rabbit, living/moving flesh surrounded by a rabbit shaped exoskeleton made of the designated material.((When i get a larger pool i shall summon an evil bunny that reanimates severed limbs, just because.))I would be interesting in what words you would use.
I guess the simple form using Perplexicon words would be ´´(Material) Bunny animate Flesh``

((I'm going to try if I can make an arcane machingun at some point, it's mainly because of that. And I could just send a black hole, but you are too near.

And then I would waste a turn. I'm aware of the focus and overdrive mechanics, but in this fight I have to act fast before that bull kills people and the aliens summon even more crap. And I have to keep some pool just in case. Also, for a black hole to kill someone they need to pass a strength check, so there is a 50% for each of them to survive, while if I just have to do an opposed d6 check with a +2, I have only a failure margin of 16%. Arcane energy doesn't do any rolls if it connects.((I'm going to try if I can make an arcane machingun at some point, it's mainly because of that.

It should give an endurance roll... have I been inconsistent?So far the only reason for arcane energy to give endurance rolls you gave were for see if you bled to death or not after your arm exploding.
EDIT: ...depending on magnitude. A pot roll of 3 or 4 probably will, 7 almost certainly won't.

Yes, but it could be the werewolf that's vulnerable to liquid silver/quicksilver, instead of the arcane.
That would work, IF it was actual liquid silver and IF the werewolf was not just "Dog Human" or something.It was indeed a werewolf. The person who summoned it had a pool of 2, and, considering that the word for arcane was there too, that only means that the other word was werewolf.
It was a werewolf, and well, there is an quite easy way to confirm wether you used Quicksilver or Liquid Silver... But im lazy, so ill leave it to GreatWyrm to find it out.

Don't worry, irregular verbs are hard in any language. I, for one, am a native english speaker and I am yet to figure out the past tense for 'lie' (as in 'I am going to lie down').Lied, I think.
Im pretty sure its something along the lines of lay or layed, lied is the past tense of lying.
Or is it laid?Im pretty sure its something along the lines of lay or layed, lied is the past tense of lying.Layed is definitely wrong. Lay is a present tense. I'm pretty sure it's lied.

English is a strange language when you think about it.It's half German and a third French, with everything else a veritable Spackle of other languages. What do you expect?
Oh, because you havent tried to conjugate Spanish verbs. They are going to blow your head. I actually know a fair bunch of "educated" (they went to school and all) people here that still use them wrong. Mix it with a quite particular dialect that affects a third of the persons and you have a recipe for regular grammar mistakes.I've taken Spanish classes, and let me tell you: Conjugating Spanish verbs may be complicated, but it doesn't have nearly as many exceptions as English.
Well, that's a good point. The "exceptions" in Spanish are all similar to another, if not working the exact way. I don't find a pattern between English exceptions, or at least not one that is useful as a rule of thumb or similar.Oh, because you havent tried to conjugate Spanish verbs.

I'm not going to demand any sort of creative control once I cede control, but I'll certainly be available if any of my cryptic notes need explanation. Right now, the only other person who has seen the full book is Piecewise (though syvarris and I had a nice spoily chat about some mechanics.) I'll probably make a "Pit of Magic GM" quicktopic or something.You do know that Piecewise has made the PDF book available, right?

Chargen rules the same?So, with that, are you asking if rules will change? Or, umm, what exactly?

As we are starting from scratch (which seems to be the concensus),
So, it seems that everybody wants to reset the arena (or maybe a new one?). I think that I will go with that criteria. Sadly, I will have to figure out how to not waste a lot of time making a new list of words. Luckily, a way to randomize the words and its meanings will help.Sadly, I can't help with random meanings, but something like this (http://www.seventhsanctum.com/generate.php?Genname=adname) should help you with the words themselves.
Not just rules, the rules for character generation in specific. Basically, are we making the characters the same.Chargen rules the same?So, with that, are you asking if rules will change? Or, umm, what exactly?
Both Derm and Elephant Parade stated that they would be in if there was a new arena and a new waitlist. The rest remained silent aboout that subject.
And, there is no way of knowing which rules will be accepted and which ones will be changed.
Wanna make a villainous muggle alliance, TCM?Sounds like I need to start a heroic muggle* alliance.
Can't we just form a muggle supremacist gang? Our emblem can be a wizard getting punched in the face.
Hmm. Maybe Derm can join, as long as he pays tithes of weapons and armor. In exchange for 'protection' in the form of not getting his nose shoved through his brain.Sounds like a plan!
Fresh game i suppose, i dont wanna be the cripple when we get an influx of new players.
Plus replacements for those who werent responding for various reasons.Fresh game i suppose, i dont wanna be the cripple when we get an influx of new players.
If I understand the situation correctly, there will only be one new player, to replace Tomcost. There'll only be more players if the game is fresh.
I'm only joining if the game is fresh. Punchface team must become a reality.
DON HEAVY LEGS.
So, I may not be too quick in combat, but I should be able to block any high strikes with these gauntlets. My chainsword has reach, and might be able to strip others of their weapons... Hmm.
Walk into a new room, preferably one with people in it.
Abcolosan Kiallum Duablam.
Thinking of an incredibly sharp obsidian V, imagine it now weightless. Then imagine it ripping into flesh of anyone foolish enough to immediately declare an attack.
More untested but hopefully helpful words.
Probably undodgeable spell!

Tomcost, you should really start a new thread at this point. Also, will I be eligible to play?I will do so when:
I'm sorry if I'm cluttering this thread.
It was mainly because of the hype of the players.I'm sorry if I'm cluttering this thread.
You're not- I just thought it was odd to see sheets in this thread.
When the temporary death-match is over before this thread dies someone PLEASE ask me what weaknesses I have found for most full-body spells...I imagine that they are something like:
Or you could take me on! I'll let you know of your weakness right then on the spot! ;D
-snip-I imagine that they are something like:
-Blackhole
-Blackhole

Keep this going until every possible combinationcan be countered by blackholeshas a weakness.
Yet more evidence that TCM doesn't care about being taken seriously...
You don't need wrestling technique when you can pin an enemy under a single claw.
Wait, you're making us fight in an arena WITHOUT 1001 magical seals and 1001 wizards casting constant antimagic on the scenery?The arena will be destructible. There won't be any privileges about anything. Both the air you breathe and the floor supporting you can be destroyed. That way there are no privileges with things like arcane beings. Big power will come at a high cost. You won't be able to reliably use any game-breaking spell for too long.
It will last three turns. Tops.
Yet more evidence that TCM doesn't care about being taken seriously...
Whoops. Anyway. I can only assume words will reset. Yay not being behind everyone else possibly!
I will tell him (and everyone) that Whiachmat is the word for table.I missed this, but now Bigfoot would be able to make his arcane furniture lancher that he always wanted.

PMed turn.
PMed TURN: NOW WITH MORE GENIUS
Attempt to use chainsword to remove obsidipinky, then prepare to use it for it's intended purpose.
Find the nearest player, and challenge them to a duel.
stuff i guess.
Say Aion Aion Pioncale and then torch them again.
Run up to Lizard Dude. Perform suplex.
Run around and shout Word while pointing upwards
Give up, there's nothing that I, as a cloth doll lying on the floor, can do.

((But i wasnt attacking anyone... i just wanted to see if that word was tentacles and that material was the only one i remembered aside from arcane and i didnt wanna risk the arcane tentacles being alive and angry with me.))Evidently, they are tentacles, and not ones that listen very well...
@Tomcost, Nice escape there, I'm going to point out I had that turn as a conditional retaliation, *IF* you attacked me. I thought perhaps that the magic targeting system might have subverted your immaterial status. You can now rest assured that this is apparently not the case with an "on touch" spell, lucky for you as it turns out, I was going to explode your heart out from your paper chest *whew*... No harm no foul? ;DMy vengance shall be terrible! Well, I was planning on doing something like what Unholy did, but on purpose. Now I will have to come up with something new. Anyway, I hope you two kill each other, it will make things more interesting than fightingg someone with half my stat points.
Hey toaster im gonna need a ruling on my pool regen.
Non combat science affected character in combat, do i get full regen or combat regen?
[Pot:3+1] Magical ley lines begin to cross your body. The lines cross your body and intertwine in a loose configuration.
You activate it, and become Wind Man, man made of air. Cue airhead jokes.
Cut boomerang from self again, but this time, no failures. Either it comes off of my hand or my hand comes off with it.
Go to the Grand room, warm up a grand monolouge.
Say words again, and get this idiot off of me!
Jump up and Divekick Cromwellius's head into the floor.
Stay back from the fight and say word
Focus pot
I'm going to congratulate Unholy Pariah for his creativeness. I hope that the most creative player wins there. Also, Bigfoot has almost no pool and no str bonus, so he will eventually end up being grabbed by the tentacles.

Throw boomerang at Cromwellius.

I just removed another giant insult-ridden argument between GWG and somebody. This despite at least seven warnings and a few mutes for this very infraction. I'm tired of cleaning up after GWG, so GWG has been banned. Please adjust your games as necessary.Posted in case he's in this.
What do you mean fix it?
I haven't forgotten this; I'm just lazy/procrastination/distracted/doing other things, pick any number of the above.I did. Remember the overkill conversation?
Also, not sure if Tomcost ever sent me anything.
RISE, SHAKE THE DUST OFF YOUR SHOULDERS AND BREATHE AGAIN!That is not dead which can eternal lie
I guess that I need better sentences for the animate dead spell.
Candy counters arcane.That's incredible. A use for the most useless word.
Hay who says we all lost our notes? I never throw anything away.(and I keep stuff on electronics so I don't lose it or clutter everything) of course I never played and the others aren't me but....uggg I just want to play a perplexicon! Anyone know some active ones?Tomcost's Perplexicon is active.
He had come up with quite an interesting trick. Insubstantial versus arcane would have been a whiff-fest. Did anyone figure out the element that ignores insubstantial?Crystal, of course. That's why I made myself those big gloves amde of crystal, to do mind-games with people.
Currently the game is pretty advanced (despite the fact that nobody has gathered enough souls to face the first official boss), and, as a bonus, Derm has died.
