PMed stats and actions!

((I'm not better prepared to use it at all, just came up with a method to partially overcome the uncertainty of the dice. And got lucky, really lucky))

Well go kill Derm now if you want to keep those souls and gain an extra POWERFUL word.
You do realize, hes gonna attack you right? 11 of the 15 souls you have were Derm souls... And he said hes gonna take them back. Kill him now before he has time to get ready

((those souls would have been mine if my arcane sword wasn't a toothpick... also quit your fear mongering hes not going to assault a 15 soul behemoth without charging up first.))

This is exactly what I was afraid of, anyway. Everybody is going to be bearing down on me at once and I won't be able to do shit but die and wait for another however many months only for the exact same thing to happen there too.

((I'll tell you what: I'll do my best to discover Many on my own before you spawn so I won't need to kill you to learn it.))

((Why would you want to kill Derm? The most dangerous players are those with more souls, it's not dependant on the particular player. There are many known words, so everybody has the same threat level when they start.))

((Ah, nothing like looking over the tome while waiting for time to pass..!))

((How through it is everyone? I've got 127 words and all bar four of the pages' general meanings (or at least what I think they are). Turns out I have only just crossed the halfway mark. Yay.))

((Hey Derm, only three more "unfortunate accidents" and you get to smash people! Isn't this exciting!))

I'd be interested to hear what you think the pattern is.  Turn up soon- or at least I think we have enough.

((you and i remember this very differently, in my recollection null was summoned as a plot event when toaster reached twenty souls and vanished in a puff of anticlimax when we migrated to the open world setting.))

((I recall that that is what piecewise said.))

Welp i found the pattern.

I do think the potential for partial forms is underused.  Why turn yourself into lightning when you could turn your arm into a acid-breathing dragon head?
