((Interesting, now the question is Marcus truly dead, or did he want you guys to kill him so he could come back and kill you all.))

"Almost there, yes the castle will make a great staging point."

Continue heading towards the castle, create 3 essences, search the court yard of the castle.

(Also DG I think the map is messed up.))

((Messed up how? It works fine for me.))

It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

I don't think anyone else will bw that foolish anymore. So now lets get back to business. I'd like to create an expedition to deal with the eldritch portal thing to the southwest. I have a blade which should be able to stop the portal as portals are a type of vortex but I don't have the firepower to stand up against eldritch magic alone. Also, since the eldritch portal is a portal leaking how high level magic, there is a chance of finding some high level loot, the chances of getting good loot and being in danger increase the closer you get to the portal and probably skyrocket on the other side. So, who wants to join me?

((Not sure how my character would know about the portal but lets just say it was something on the lines of sensing dark magic or some effect of the blade or something like that. If not, then either I assumed incorrectly that the map is public knowledge or I apologize for metagaming. ))

Giving waitlisted people the ability to murder non-responsive players was a great idea. Need to do that more often.

((I'm taking the shards. Just to clarify that. And I'll either give James enough to cover whatever he lent Marcus, or use them.))

"I just don't understand why people try things like that. It never works. He owed me those shards, so I'll be taking them."

Get 7 of Marcus's shards. Give one each to Crimson, Gambler, and Skelliborn for their help.
Return to the council chamber and try yet again to turn the omnicube into a powered armguard.
Remember that I still owe Gambler for upgrading the omnicube and give him a shard.
Gotta replenish my essence stock. 5 healing essences.

"The expedition could use a healer. I might join."

edit, just in case:
If wail of the banshee actually does still happen, drop whatever I'm doing and heal myself. Just apply constant healing to counteract whatever damage it does. All essences. If the spell is powerful enough have it extend to other people too.
Amulet of magic defense would provide some defense too.

"Agh. Owww... that hurt. Bah. Onwards to loot! To LOOT!"

Old King Coal makes 3 bone essences, then uses the glow of the climbing claws to enable visual scanning of the temple. Visual scanning then commences.

((By the way guys... I wouldn't be too surprised if the Wail of the Banshee(if Marcus actually used it) went off next turn. Old King Coal might be safe because of his underground location, but everybody else around the castle and in it...))

((Seems quite likely. And the Wail would obliterate all living inside (bare surprising luck) if it was properly executed. But no one cares. Oh well.))

Kahel looked at the sharp-pointed golem with slight amusement:

"Seems like your construct is still far from being perfect..."

"I just don't understand why people try things like that. It never works. He owed me those shards, so I'll be taking them."

Get Marcus's shards. Give one each to Jase, Crimson, Gambler, and Skelliborn for their help.
Try yet again to turn the omnicube into a powered armguard.
Remember that I still owe Gambler for upgrading the omnicube and give him another shard.

"Many thanks. I will join this expedition as well."
The Gambler breaks into a coughing fit, doubling over and shuddering with its intensity.
"'Ady above, 'at 'urts."
Study the enchantment on my chair and create a pattern to be able to copy it later on a more... portable object. Then, y'know, move it back into the council chamber, where it belongs.
Then make 3 luck essences and prepare to leave on the expidition.

((So I looked in the charsheet for clues as to strange happenings. Two things of note:
Viznor has gained a new affinity,
and Marcus... he is present in the corpse sheet, but instead of reading "head cut off" in cause of death, it reads "fine". I'm going to hope that's just an error.))

((I got the binding affinity a while ago, during some PM adventures. I believe it wasn't in the thread mainly because the rest of the turn was secret.))

((Also, I just blew 20 pot's worth of essences on a counter to wail of the banshee. It was, apperently, just a big illusion.))
