Well great job on making us look like fools. Just pick up the cap to the flask and follow him into the shop. Browse through his wares looking for some better clothes, traveling supplies, and some parchment. We specifically need some better boots(For walking long distances without hurting our feet, clay shoes must suck), a cloak(To protect us against the weather), something better for carrying drinking water with us, and a knife. The knife is a very important tool for all kinds of things and can obviously be used for a weapon.

+1 to this


And we should pick an element that we can use in not only battle but in other more useful ways too. Stone or life could make shelter out of rock or plants, fire can melt and shape metal and glass, water can carve rock and keep us hydrated in deserts when we draw it from underground as well as making sea traveling easier, wind could make us extremely useful for sailing boats and mills, etc.

I personally am going for stone, since that seems useful and a bit of a new choice from people who like to take stuff like fire or light and such. IT'S TIME TO ROCK!!

I would plus one this, but i am more for writing than for gloves in spicific. Yes, it calls for a bit of preplanning, but, we can make spells for any situation as long as we have a medium and writing material. Actually, i think it should be written words, than just righting utincles, so we can write in dirt and have what we need to work with.
On that note, i am also for the plant element because, there is nearly no situation where it will not help.

+1 for writing over gloves.

I'm all for this stuff, cos you know the character sounds awesome. I actually voted fire cos I reckon it is one of the more practical, but that isn't really important.

I reckon for the implement, something original WOULD be nice, so maybe something like, I dunno, if air ends up being voted then the cape idea was pretty cool, or something like musical instruments, to PLAY the magic. That, I reckon, is another good one.
But, if all else fails and it is writing-vs-gloves, I would go writing.


tl;dr- Music to play magic, or if not then writing implements +1.

Wait, if you're going for something original, why are you choosing writing over gloves as an implement? Writing out scrolls to use later is basically how every single D&D wizard operates. Whereas punching arcane energies into desired shapes is something I don't think has ever been done before.

Changing my vote to:


Remove leaf from face

Head back home and check on how things are doing. Drop off our stuff and see about fixing Shelby up and make sure edgar and the grouge are okay.

Head back and return the sword we borrowed and also check on the new prisoner.

Go to the tavern for a (non-alcoholic) drink and see what the town is talking about.

If you look back, it had been awake and alert since before we made the gems.

I'm fairly sure its not awake or alert NOW. They said it was breathing, not that it is conscious. The dimmed eyes indicate that it is unconscious but not dead

Since we can't use the energy, we should get it out of there. Covering it up would be too conspicuous.

If Shelby and Edgar are close enough by, get them to haul it out of there.

If they can't make it in time, or can't lift it, ask Olof what to do.

If all else fails, take to it with your sword, destroy it, and scatter the shards. Stamp them into the ground.
I think losing the 17 energy is better than being found out by Yergen.
That gal is fierce, and we can always get more energy.

+1 to this.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There may or may not be such a thing as theoretical biology. I know nothing on the subject.

I am more concerned with the immediate "I shall rend the fool who summoned me into a thousand tiny pieced and feast upon their soul!" than issues with a poor work ethic... On matters of loyalty, a summoned spirit is more likely to stab you in the back and claim the Amulet of Yendor for itself than a created spirit, but even then, having someone bigger than them around would help to keep them from open revolt...

I vote Olof's corpse for a magic skeleton. Its bones should already be attuned to carrying magic...

Ask Olof about combining golem magic with pure skeleton magic. If you use an animate skeleton as the core of a golem, what happens?

Discuss the 'presence' of a spirit. Can a spirit be bound to multiple skeletons to create a giant, many-armed skeleton? Can a spirit animate a skeleton that isn't properly assembled, maybe two sets of legs with a head on top of them to jump at things and bite them? Could a single spirit be spread over two separate skeletons, and how much could such a pair of skeletons separate without straining the spirit?

Ask Gurdy to stay hidden until the human/grouge conflict has subsided.
