I've noticed every time a fight happens, it's always one balls out move that put at least one person in danger that finishes the fight, how badass is that?

Despite the fact that death was undeniably snuggling up to him and demanding a nice, long kiss on the lips after a hard day's work, Lyu couldn't help but keep on smiling widely underneath the rubble. The pain was quite excruciating, and he might not survive if he is not immediately helped in some way, and yet he was filled with such supreme happiness. What a worthless bag of wind that demon was. To see the moment of complete, utterly undignified panic in the thing's eyes... that was quite possibly the most priceless sensation Lyu had ever had. If he was to die now, that was surely a wonderful image to die to. That and the scream it made when its hand was torn off by the staff. It was, literally, the stuff of dreams for him.

It was also rather pleasant to know that, no matter how much peril he may have ever found himself in, the greatest danger to his continued safety was always going to be the presence of his teammates in the area. Thinking about it, Lyu just had to laugh. And he did. It was a pretty long laugh, in fact.

Laugh heartily. Try to resist being crushed.

Oops. Artifact from a prior draft. Fixed now.

((You know I didn't notice this before, but both our mages take penalties due to temperature. I take penalties in the cold, and Ekoka takes them in the heat.
Weird. Also, I take it once you guys save and/or watch Lyu die you'll come to help me right? RIIIIGHT?))

((I think despite your lack of training in it, your action would be better spent preparing/casting a healing spell. I'm pretty sure that's the only real option for him to not die at this point.
Let the others dig him out, then hopefully you can not suck enough to keep him stable.
Then maybe have Baldur and Felice come bail me out and I can come heal him better.

((Ahem.))

Lyu currently has one turn to live. You guys have to dig him out. Unfortunately, he also has been wounded and that will require treatment; it’s not life-threatening, but there is a chance he may lose a limb.

((Yes?))

He does not have poor pattern recognition! He's just a bit reckless. And sometimes short-tempered when people insult him.

((He's saying you die if they don't fix you up this turn...or maybe they can dig you out this turn and heal you next turn?? That parts kinda vague, but he means ON TOP OF THAT, *IF* they fix you up to "not bleeding out" levels, you'll still probably end up short some parts))

((I believe what is meant is that I will be crushed to death if I am not immediately dug out - I am wounded, but not crushed yet, and if I am not dug out, I will be. Head crushed into goo and all that. Hence why the status says 'being crushed by a rock' and 'entombed in rubble' rather than 'a whole lot of broken bones and massive internal injuries'.))

((Hmm...looking it over that does make sense. Though I suppose it requires GM clarification before we can say anything for sure.

On a different note, I just got an absurd image in my head of them digging you out and finding you somehow completely looted Cyrus' corpse while down there, even though said corpse is presumably across the room.))

GM CLARIFICATION AHOY!

Lyu will die if they fail to dig him out. He'll suffocate and be squished into Yagalian pancakes. If they DO manage to, then I roll a dice to find out how badly he's injured. Nothing life-threatening, but multiple broken bones is almost certain unless he gets really lucky on his dice rolls. Now, if it was Felice I wouldn't worry a bit; man's luckier than a four-leafed clover made out of rabbits' feet.

Also, Cyrus' corpse isn't so much 'across the room' as it is 'spread evenly in a fine dust across the better part of the village'. He did get knifed with iron and explode, after all. Vanda, on the other hand, probably only has more of those crystals and maybe some pants.

You're not going to take the dead dude's pants, are you? Please don't.

I don't know. You guys should probably take a closer look and find out. Baldur shivved him and all, but I imagine everyone's a little too busy digging you out of your pre-emptive grave to find out.

Really, please don't take his pants. If I have to write about the demon's... appendage as well as the mayor's gigantic green one I'll be a little put out with you lot.
