Then the shade does nothing.

Damn, I looked at the wrong image.

Turn 142

>.> I was busy

Focus Pot, then

Sadfaec snaps out of his sleep and begins to focus his inner energies the best way he knows: by crying a lot.

BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

An only slightly better type of panic is knowing perfectly well what's happening and not being able to do anything about it.

Focus Pot, somehow.

You start to scream, until your shouting overrides the shouting from the tiny metal man! Well, somewhat, but it is still enough for you to focus in enhancing your magical capabilities.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

PM

FORCE RHINO casts a spell:

[Pot:2+1=3]
His transformation goes off, and he is back at being a human, a short human, but a human nevertheless. But, his right hand begins to glow, a weak, yet uncontrolled glow, which caused a suddenly flash of illumination as his right hand transforms into a tiny human. It speaks in a tiny, irritating voice:

"What? Where am I? OH MY GOD WHY CAN'T I MOVE MY LEGS?"

It then proceeds to notice how they are fused to your arm, and tiny cries of despair come from it.


Huh, this didn't go as planned. Unless you wanted to stop being FORCE RHINO, and attach a tiny sentient human to your wrist.

Focus POT

Disappointed at the fact that the FORCE RHINO decided to discard your totally awesome and badass gift, you focus your inner energies, as the shadows of your skin laugh maniacally, their burning red eyes becoming little more than slits in their laughs.

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR

PM

You try some magic:

[Pot:6+1=7]
A thick golden line appears, and begins to twist itself in a series of interwoven rings. The pattern extends until a shape is drawn out of that texture: a human torso. With a flash of light, it materializes into nothing, just disappearing. But just as it apparently ceased to exist, a myriad of thoughts manifested on your head. Unformed, primitive and without meaning, like that of a conscience which has barely begun its existence in this world. But they eventually fade away too, and you are left with nothing.

That was weird.

You notice that the huge obsidian skull attached to the northern wall is opening, and its unholy energies intensify. A bad omen, but perhaps not for you.

Let us begin to litter this arena with weapons!

Try WORDS to make a soul-stealing-steel halberd!

Try and stab, smack, hit, poke, jab, boop, chop or otherwise violently touch it with my new weapon.

[Bigf01t spd:5-1=6]
[Hydra spd:2]

Bigf01t reacts more quickly and tries to summon a new weapon!

[Pot:3+1=4]
A golden line appears, and draws what appears to be an axe, fused with a spear. Ahh, you know these things, these are halberds. With a flash of light, it materializes into steel and begins to emit green vapors which forms screaming faces from time to time. They are accompanied by laments, moaning, and all those sounds of suffering that you are already used to. You grab it and find it to be quite good, if maybe not so powerful regarding the sheer concentration of the souls of the damned inside of it. Your flesh-repelling aura modifies itself to incorporate the halberd to it, and now circles it too.

-Ectoplasmic steel halberd:
[Hacking weapon]
[Piercing weapon]
[Unholy:4]
You can choose which kind of attack to perform.

Having done that, Bigf01t started to attack:

Attack chosen at random: stab.

[Bif01t dex:5-1=4]
[Hydra dex:3]

[Bigf01t str:4]

[Hydra will:5]

The halberd is stabbed in the monster's midsection. The weaker grip of the wailing souls doesn't manage to harm the metaphysical entity of the Hydra in any meaningful way, though. And the apparent lack of vital organs seems to indicate that this attack was ultimately futile. Even worse, the swing moved away some of the fleshy bits that repelled more flesh from your aura, and now it is weakened.

The Hydra, on the other hand, quickly shoves the halberd back to you and aims again at your feet with its tentacles:

[Hydra dex:5+1=6]
[Bigf01t dex:3+1+1=5]

They wrap around his legs, if albeit loosely. The bits of flesh of the aura collide with the tentacles and fall away.

The aura is removed!

The Hydra is now trying to bring you to the floor!

[Hydra str:3]
[Bigf01t str:4]

But fortunately the Phantom halberdier manages to wiggle his foots away from the odd tentacles.

The Hydra then hisses and goes away. The silvery human head stares at you, its expression blank. It is unsettling.

NO ACTION

The sense of imminent doom intensifies, and endlessblaze realizes that it may be possible that his inaction is attracted unwanted attention. An unwanted, murderous attention.

Character sheets

((You can breathe twice at the warrior at the perilometer, and it won't kill anybody.))

Okay, we have to plan this if we want to win.

If the dracolich breathes into the mausoleum, some players may end up being hurt.

Question:

If the shades wound or kill someone in the mausoleum. Would D be able to resurrect?

((I'd rather work via PM, not spoiler tags))

((If I can control the shade team again, I can guarantee you that some people are going to die. We still need to figure out how to kill the boss.))
