draw my sword, give the beast a good slash across the face if they try to eat the feast.
If they don't, try to climb onto it's back and ride it!

"Wait, neighbour! I must harvest your bodily fluids!"
Stab Frank in the neck with my syringe.
Let them sort out whatever they're doing for themselves. See what other potions I have in storage.

Frank smirks unnaturally.
Using his super-athletic old man skills, he runs up the dinosaurs tail, and sits on its back.

Bellowing with rage, tail whip the King's men, unless Zoh's elixir does something horrible to me. In that case, retreat after grabbing a last steak. I ignore Frank. If that UFO shoots at me before I take the other possible actions, I pick up one of the King's men in my jaws and throw them at the UFO.(If editing actions was bad form, that would incentivise not posting until everyone else does. For obvious reasons, this would be bad for the game)

"This dinosaur is now my property. Thus, GIT OFF MAH LAWN"
Man I feel sorry for Sastrei here. Can't help but feel like this dogpile is my fault. You're still having fun right?
Mathel picks his mace and shield again, this time keeping them in his hands. And goes towards the sound of battle. Also, if attacked, use shield to defend. If I run into a dinosaurus, I hit it in the knee with my mace. If I am near the ruined fountain, I suggest a brachiosaurus.
Throw my next block. HARDER.
asses damage and fire another round
"You heap of filth, I'll crush you!"climb onto the beast's back and drive my sword into it's spine!Frank fights this man off!
Give this man a bit of fist to face. If they try anything underhanded, end them rightly with a Mordhau using my sword!
Limp-run off to the woods, if there are any, occasionally turning my head to snap at the sword man's leg and hopefully throw him off. If there's no woods, then head to my Blockbuster instead.
(*I'm assuming that a peasant through the turbine did something to that effect.)
Show the receptionist my authorized medbot card and than change my arm into a minigun to threaten her to give me full access of the hospital
Find random animal on the street and take blood sample of that.
"Ah! Yes! Let me tell you of the great Lorethazu! The being from beyond time and space who approaches! Once he is beckoned, he will arrive fully and reward all his followers for eternity! Best of all, there's no need for blood or human sacrifice!"
Psuedo-preaching!
Go inside my house and take a sip of healing potion to help with my face. Then, work on upgrading my brewing equipment as to provide a bonus to transformative elixirs I make with it. At minimum, I hope the modifier applies to low rolls, making them less of a failure.
Hello, ghost of A, my name is Mathel Ironfish. Have you seen a human wearing only a chain mail shirt? I was going to show him how I cook fish.

Sastrei is found by Frank. How to Train Your Dinosaur team-up is a go! If anyone else attacks me, try to intimidate them, or attack them if they go straight to combat. If it's that UFO, just run away.

"Ah! A blessing from Lorethazu! He usually doesn't provide support so quickly without a ritual! He must be pleased with our actions!"
Sastrei will stay here to rest and heal.
Frank takes out a hairbrush and starts combing the dinosaur. Whether or not it has hair is irrelevant
Check my manor for a spare suit of armor. I'm bound to have weapons in there, but not so sure about armor.

THANK YOU FOR AUTHORIZING YOUR FELLOW MEDBOT, THIS WILL NOT LEAD INTO TERMINATION OF THIS FACILITY BECAUSE OF RESIGNATION, CALCULATION ARE STATING THAT THIS FACILITY WILL BE CHANGED DRAMATICALLY BY 70%

(How can I as a robot be shouting?, I was just exhibiting my requested actions to the fellow medical workers)It isn't necessarily that you're shouting, but that's how a couple people perceived it. Also all caps. Rolling a 10 has drawbacks. I was actually going to have you burst in through a wall originally, which probably would have been worse. Anyway, they weren't really a huge loss, and you've successfully taken command.

Yes. I will join in the hunt for the forgotten beast. I would like to put some armor on as well though.
Mathel runs home, leaving his raw fish there and only taking his backpack, mace and shield with him. If he gets home, he will search for some armor to put on.
AAAAAAA, knowing that whether he says yes or no won't transmit, gestures to his three blocks. He points at the red one, giving a thumbs down sign. He points and the green and makes a thumbs up.

Frank groans. Senility may be catching up early.
He pets the dinosaur and croons, then suggests that a hospital may be the ideal place to terrorise if medical supplies are needed.
Sastrei doesn't understand speech, but by sheer coincidence walks to the hospital.
While waiting for more people to join the hunt for the forgotten beast, Mathel sacrifices some fish to Thor and prays for the group to have the power to slay mighty beasts.

Frank dismounts Sastrei, then enters the hospital alone, and begins screaming that he needs "all of the drugs and doctors, and all of the money while you're at it."
Hide and listen for any sounds of combat that I think indicate that Frank needs me to burst in there.
Soooooo close. Keep at it. Arise my creation!
Try someone's backyard
I would vote for time going by a little faster, as long as others are willing.
A few preparations before I go shopping:Inform the neighbors about an impromptu party/festival, starting at...say, 6 to 8:00 PM. Currently, there will be movies and appetizers, though hopefully everyone will have some contribution of their own, such as more food, carnival booths, performances, pretty much everything as long as it's optional. Preferably, the message should be digital, though paper flyers would also be good.
Set up an Animal Communication to be slow-brewed for 1-2 hours while I'm gone. If successful, it should, well, allow communication with animals for a few hours. Make sure I have money on my person, and head into the city's shopping district.
Wait until transformation ends. Then:Spoiler: Public, just long (click to show/hide)
right! Check my funds and begin training the farmers into proper infantry! Use practice swords and wooden staves in place of real weaponry, or suitably sized sticks if I can't afford/find them at the moment. Have harold train with them too, and have the "gangsters" either go practice their music and become full fledged musicians(or bards, depending on your taste) or practice with their glocks at a shooting range. Whichever works best for them.
Scavenge for supplies needed to make an IED, or if that's too outrageous then molotov cocktails
Mathel carves 8 wooden spears and hardens their tips over fire.
Hey, crossbowmen, when you run out of bolts, or when the melee starts, some melee weapons will be nescessary. Take these.

Guess that means that the longer it sits, the stronger/more of it I'll get.
Tell the volunteers to ask eachother about the inconsequential details, while letting me handle the rather consequencal ones. Also, warn them about the neighborhood cult. Hope they become an NPC group that's rolled for each turn.
Anyway, let's go shopping. I buy a hairpin or 2 (to pick the locks on the closet with), a bunch of water balloons, 2 or 3 rather different squirt guns, and, to top it all off, I go to the animal shelter and see what cats are up for adoption, preferably any younger ones.
Hello, guard.
We are getting ready to hunt a forgotten beast.

Seeing that it is getting close to noon and we did not have breakfast, Mathel starts roasting remaining raw fish and handing them to the assembling army. He also eats one roasted fish himself.

Mathel hands the stone spear to AAAAAAAAA.
Mister King, when are we going to attack this beast? We have been sitting on your lawn preparing for hours.
Prepare for dino-killing. Scream incomprehensibly.
tell Harold not to worry about it, and redistribute the spears from the gangsters to the farmers. Time to hunt a dinosaur!
Report in. Look for dinosaur.
begin rock analysis
((Lorethazu is an eldritch being. Until a very powerful summoning ritual(requiring a very large cult and a few other ingredients(an Orb of Stalwart, Dragon's Blood Orchid Extract)) is used, all he can do is channel power to his cultists, allowing rituals to work and "spells" to be cast.))(It is going to be awhile. Not sure I should have allowed such an extreme potion duration in the first place, but here we are. Honestly, I'm just gonna allow you to begin the ritual anyway, and if luck has it Lorethazu will turn you back.)
Begin the ritual... wait. Eta on turning back to human? Once human, begin the ritual!
I adopt a relatively young cat, with either black, grey, or white fur. Then, return home, and pick the lock with a hairpin, and finish up the potion.
(Let's see how your dinosaur pride is affected when it's kneeling over in bad and being dissected!)
Just as lightning strikes skyscrapers multiple times, those that should've or would've gone extinct are likely to face extinction in the near future.(Let's see how your dinosaur pride is affected when it's kneeling over in bad and being dissected!)
Impossible! Extinction never strikes in the same place twice!
find some space organization and sell the satellite while hiding my alien self
Give the cat a random gender. Return home, and check on how the assistants are working. Congratulate them for all the work they've done. Let the cat out in my house, so it can get accustomed. Then, pick the lock on the closet with the supplies, and provide them to the assistants, if they want them.
"TARGET HAS DESIGNATED LETHAL FORCE, PLEASE ACCEPT RESTRAIN BEFORE THE EVENT OF EXTERMINATION".
it's time to hold my ground against abuse against robots, by first moving my leg joints into a standing position... Anyways, deploy my minigun arm to shoot a hail of bullets in the general direction of where Sastrel the dinosaur is.
Frank forgets what he was doing and wanders off deeper into the hospital. He then remembers he was looking for medical supplies, and resumes the search.
Rip PSYCH-BOT's head off and drop it in front of Elaine and her team.
Oh geez, get that thing out of here.
"Squeak squeak squeak!"Ritual continues!Spoiler: Translation (click to show/hide)
bah, if I had my horse it would take mere minutes to track this beast. Continue regardless.
Gangsters, you have interesting crossbows. Mind if I take a look?
If the gangsters allow it, Mathel looks at their guns and tries to understand how they work. If the gangsters do not allow it, Mathel looks sad.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA... AAAAAAAAAA?"Consider how one is to properly cook dinosaur meat.Spoiler: TranslAAAAtion (click to show/hide)
Visit movie prep crew, then follow truck.
HEAVILY inspired, I didn't want to go ALL the way, because Stubbs has some amount of established character to him, and I don't like playing characters that I don't know well enough to do justice.Spoiler: Failbird105 (click to show/hide)
Is this Stubbs the Zombie?
"TARGET HAS ENGAGED IN MELEE COMBAT, CQC RESPONSE MODULES WILL ENGAGE".
Time to surge all computer processing power into my arms, oh yeah probably should switch from minigun arm into arms that has those metallic, opposable appendages. Than grab onto Sastrei's body and throw him across the medical entrance room
Time for a bit more force!
Howl in pain and crush the minigun. However, if the full group outside comes in here after me, then get Frank to safety and fight to the end.
Frank returns to the combat, and hits PSYCHE BOT with any random, heavy piece of hospital equipment that he can get his hands on.
To battle!
AAAAAAAAAAA!
Ouch!
Mathel starts a fire (Yes, in the truck.) and cauterizes the wound (Ignoring the fact that it would already be cauterized by the bullet.).
Then he takes off one of his right leather sandal that he has in his iron high boot, rips it apart and uses it as a bandage.
In the end, he puts the right iron boot back on.Spoiler: inventory (click to show/hide)
Charge!
Go on, git!
This is our town, yo!
Seems like a good time to sip a cold one.
What's all that commotion at the hospital!?Hoo boy, initiative rolling is gonna suck here... I probably should have just made that makeshift army all have one initiative but eh. More chaos this way. By the way, I apparently forgot that that railgun shot Sastrei suffered a while back didn't fully heal. I've updated the damage accordingly, though it still isn't quite at fatal levels.
"Squeak squeak squeak!"Keep going.Spoiler: Translation (click to show/hide)
Finish up the potion. How much of it do I have, and how effective is it? Then, spend some time bonding with the cat, whom I'll name....Zura? I don't know why.
Name: Edward StubbfordAccepted! Glad to have another new town person after so much time.

Take a drive through town like thezombiecompletely normal human you are.
(basically, the struck through version is the truth, the italicized one is what people believe.)
Just a reminder, it was an animal communication potion. Sip a little, talk with cat a little, and bring supplies to the park.Huh, not sure how I missed that. Will update duration/doses accordingly.
agh! I need to hurry up or I'll miss out on the glory of slaying the beast! Won't do to have a king that can't fight!
Anything good on the radio?[Auto-10] The truck driver finds that one station they enjoy, and starts to listen... (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgzGwKwLmgM)
Ritual continues. Almost complete.
Just a reminder, it was an animal communication potion. Sip a little, talk with cat a little, and bring supplies to the park.
Chomp as many of my attackers as I can. If I have to pick just one, Harold.
Frank continues bashing PSYCHE-BOT with his computer monitor.
Ditto! It's time to slAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAughter the dino!
Fight some more!
Open fire!
Mathel charges into the hospital and bashes the Forgotten beast's knee with his mace. He hopes to immobilize the creature.
That is what you get for ruining the picnic!
Call for backup!
Stab it!
"HUMANOID OFFSPRING IS TRYING TO INTERFERE IN HOSPITAL BUSINESS, CQC MODULES WILL RESULT IN TERMINATION FOR ANALYZED ENTITY."
Ignore Sastrei for now, and do a drop elbow onto Franks spine with 420's mechanical elbow, this will probably cause some damage
agh! I need to hurry up or I'll miss out on the glory of slaying the beast! Won't do to have a king that can't fight!
Keep Stabbing!
Frank weeps. Then he promptly forgets about the dinosaur, and instead begins flipping through his "Eldritch Rituals for Dummies" manual, and tries an incantation.
While surrounded by a small army. Should work well.
Mathel snatches the creepy looking book from the crazy old man and reads the books title.
If the old man tries to resist, Mathel hits him with his shield.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"Butcher dinosAAAAAAAAAAAAAur.Spoiler: Translation (click to show/hide)
"MANY POTENTIAL CONFLICTS ARE ENGAGING, RESULTING IN MULTI-ANALYSIS ENGAGEMENT"
Command Elaine and her medical team to defend the dinosaur corpse from being butchered, it needs to be medically examined!. 420 will forcefully grab Frank's incantation book, eject it up in the air, than switch my arm into a mini gun and shoot a lot of holes into it.
Keep reporting the situation. Pull a weapon from briefcase to deal with this situation.
"oh god, Harold! NOOOOOOO!"
mourn the death of Count Harold. Send his family some money too. Might not buy happiness, but it will at least ease the pain of their loss some.
They can choose, though The Shaggy Dog (either the 1959 or 2006 version, their choice) would play at one point or another. Figure out if the park has a sprinkler system, and return home. Ask Zura if they'd rather be some other animal; a lion, a panther, a bird, whichever. Then work on an transformation-immunization elixir that prevents the drinker from being transformed for about an hour after consumption.
"Squeak! Squeak squeak! Squeak squeak squeak squeak!"That.Spoiler: Translation (click to show/hide)
Name:Tylo
What are you?:A Pachycephalosaurus.
Gender:Male
Age:Adult
Appearance:A herbivorous dinosaur. (https://www.newdinosaurs.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/147_pachycephalosaurus_vlad_konstantinov.jpg)
Personality:Not aggressive, but ready to headbutt threats.
List three of your favorite things:Plants, water, headbutting.
Inventory:None.
What? What is this?:(Headbutts)
Eat some grass in the vicinity of movie night.
Hopefully nobody objects to a new dinosaur. This one shouldn't cause so much trouble.
(not dead)
leave the sat at home and search for more anomalies
"Isn't there going to be a festival soon or something? Movie night? Maybe we could set up a booth there and spread the word of glorious Lorethazu!"
That. Maybe?
Prepare a half hour's worth of panther transformation potion, and ask Zura if he'd like to try it out. If so, feed it to him. Tell him about the curative elixir, in case he wants to stop the form early. Also, work on a miscelaneous canine transformation potion, one that works by being in contact with skin. Research the sprinkler system of the park the movies are being played in, and if I could rig it to dispense elixir within the water and activate on command.
give Harold a proper burial at whatever graveyard was written in his will. If a will and instructions for his preferred method of passing on are not found, just bury him in the nicest graveyard we can find.
Find a lair I can stay in.
Frank continues reading more verses from the book.
No! You shall not summon any more monsters!
Mathel bashes Frank in the head with his mace.
"IRRITATION HAS LED TO CRITICAL MASS, DEPLOYING DRONES"
Deploy an entire swarm of nano-bots from my mechanical torso chassis! Have them attack anything with carbon-based flesh; Elaine and her team can go call the ghostbusters if they can't go and catch a ghost.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, AAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAA!"Run away with a sizable chunk of the dinosaur meat. And by run, I mean really run. Fast. Fast as ghostly possible.Spoiler: Translation (click to show/hide)
I'm outta here!
Hey, the Blockbuster is back.
Grunt at the other intruder. See if he's hostile. If he is, headbutt him. If not, ignore him.
"Oh, cheer up Lorethazu! We will do our best to spread your glorious word there!"
Commune with Lorethazu, see if he's willing to gloriously provide some sort of booth. If he isn't... well, start drawing up plans for an efficient and yet awesome cult booth.
Continue running. Get somewhere secluded and safe.
continue with giving Jarod a proper burial in a nice graveyard
Continue working on that potion, as well as devising a formula for creating potions whose transformation can be activated/deactivated at will during the period of affect.
Frank smacks Mathel with his book, then backpedals and continues reading. Something more chaotic, preferably.
Mathel blocks the book with his shield, then bashes Frank in the knee with his mace.
Stop summoning eldrich horrors!
"CONTINUED IRRITATION IS LEADING TO THIS BOT BECOMING LIVID, PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE."
Charge up a lot of kinetic energy into my robotic fist to pierce a hole within Frank's body. Elaine and the nano-bots can do whatever they want, just as long as it is helping the general cause to defeating these hooligans!
Continue working on both things mentioned in the prior action.
Go to the woods and roar. See if I can find any others of my kind.
Scream incomprehensibly at the reality cop. Try to find a way in here to cook my dinosaur meat.
Well uh, okay then.
"Thank you, glorious Lorethazu! Now let's get to work!"
Surely there's a junkyard or something that materials can be scrounged from? Maybe a furniture store has some scraps available? Maybe one of the cultists is a woodworker? Check!
Frank dashes over to the resurrecting dinosaur and begins to chant the lines of the book even louder.
Mathel stops and considers that he is fighting a mage. He prays to Thor.
Oh mighty Thor, plese help us defeat this agent of destruction, by interrupting his casting with your thunder.
Then, Mathel turns to Psychebot.
Hey, Iron golem, if the prayer does not work out, could you scream as loudly as you can using your speakers to interrupt the mage's concentration?
Lastly, Mathel charges at Frank, attempting to knock him down.
"CIVILIAN IS REQUESTING AUDITORY SOUND WAVE, REQUEST IS BEING PROCESSED".(Apparently I forgot to put it in the last post post, but the bats and bots rolled another tie in their battle. That's probably why I forgot to mention them, as nothing really happened. Both swarms still around and fighting each other.)
Create an auditory wave from my vocal speakers so loud that it breaks the sound barrier, and pretty much make the old man, deaf permanently. The flying nano-bots can be inserted my mechanical chassis, now that the swarm of bats are gone.
"Praise Lorethazu, who supplies our needs! Now let's get this stuff to where we need it."
Find a cart or wheelbarrows or something, transport the supplies to wherever the party or movie night or whatever is.
Greet the other dinosaur.
Frank slumbers.
Mathel grabs the book.
inform the stranger of Harold's noble sacrifice, and ask to burry him in this graveyard (or for directions to whoever is in charge of tending to it, so I can ask them.)
Frank immediately rises, kicks Mathel viciously, and retrieves his book.
Mathel blocks the kick (if Frank woke up already) and runs out.
Man, have I been trying to rip this apart for an hour already? My plan was to put it into a demon—blocking circle, put that into runic warding circle and then burn it. Must be the demonic influence.
After running out, Mathel starts a fire, gets a charred stick and makes the circles around it. Then he throws the book into the fire.
Cook that dino meat! Nice and medium rare, prehistoric steak!
Help.
Continue working on the things! When are the movies, again?
Scout the forest.
"Praise Lorethazu! Now let's get to work!"
Construct the booth according to the plans provided by glorious Lorethazu.
Yeah I can't run this anymore. I wouldn't blame you if you gave up on me for this. For whatever it is worth, I apologize. The original game came back anyway and it is basically better in every conceivable way anyway.
We started at 7:00am, maybe we could have three more hour long turns and end at 7:00pm? That seems good to me.
Explore the cave with my new friend.
Mathel goes back into the hospital, slices off the carnataurus head and sacrifices it in the fire outside to Thor.
Oh mighty Thor, thank you for your help in the fight against this forgotten beast and an evil wizard.
I send you this head as thanks.
"Excellent! We're making progress!"
Continue work! Pray to Lorethazu for aid for the non-Euclidean elements!
A new challenger has appeared!Spoiler: Michael McBees (click to show/hide)
First Action: Look for members of the McHornets family in the town.
Research the sprinkler system of the park, and create a device for distributing the canine transformation potion in the sprinklers' water supply, if a device would be necessary or useful for such.
Mathel goes to find the good king Harlaus.
"Praise Lorethazu! The end is nigh!"
As the preparations for the party begin, prepare to summon Lorethazu at 7:00 P.M.
Go to park, set it up.
Wait until some member(s) of McHornets family will go outside to breathe fresh air, then summon killer bees to attack him/her/them.

You're accepted, but the next turn will be the last. You should probably post an action to go with this.
Also, I'll probably post the turn tomorrow to make sure the remaining regulars get a chance to post.
Spring the trap.I assumed you'd want to do this, after all the prep.
King, may I join your services?
, Mathel asks as the funeral ends.
"MCGREEEEEEGOOOOOOOR!"
Knock him down with a bee blast, then draw my 9mm pistol and get up.
If McGregor is knocked down, shoot him in the head five times.
If I'm not successful at knocking McGregor down, make a large shield out of bees in order to save myself from his attacks.

I think you're misunderstanding me. The game is over, I just wanted to finish this last bit for Person.
Thank you, person and Enemy post, for a great rtd.
