Perplexicon: A New Arena: Cutting people in half. With glass.
« Reply #469 on: December 03, 2014, 05:48:17 pm »

Turn 25
"Lucky dodge. Perhaps you are a worthy opponent? We will see."
Chop Li up with the halberd.
This is... suboptimal. Let's try something, shall we? Hopefully I can guess a dangerous word... shouldn't be too hard...
Point at Derm and say the words I'm going to pm you. All POT
[Fake!Derm SPD:6+1=7]
[li SPD:3-1=2]
[Mask SPD:1]

Fake!Derm renews his assault and attempts to chop Li up into pieces once again.

[Fake!Derm DEX:4+1=5]
[li SPD:1-1=0]

[Fake!Derm STR:6]
[li END:5-1=4]

He carves a deep gash on Li's chest. Li endures most of the pain, but the blood that pours from his wound cannot be stopped by mere will.

Li: Torso [Severe Bleeding], [Pain]

Li tries to retaliate with a spell.

[li POT:2,5,2,1,3,1,2,2,3,4=0 < DC:7]

Nothing happens.

Mask decides to join this fight and casts a spell of his own, aiming at Fake!Derm.

[Mask POT:2,5,5,1,2,2,6,4,2=4 = DC:4]

He summons a small pile of insectoid squids and octopi.
In my haste, I forgot to post a <3 based message while sending a PM.
[POT:5,6,6,1,2,4,6,4,2=8 > DC:5. POT:2,4,2,4,2,6,2,2,1=3. 11vs5]

A wide crescent blade of glass launches at Mallos and spectacularly bisects him. After the glass shatters on the wall, his still burning upper half drops into the pit.

Mallos is dead.

His legs transform into a white mist and enter Thrakor. Quite a <3ly feeling.
Continue the cutting.
Run, run away to the magma cavern!

While in the middle of running attempt to make a new axe using secret words!

[Beirus SPD:3+1=4]
[Gigas SPD:6+2=8]

Gigas takes off and runs to the Magma Cavern, while trying to summon himself a weapon.

[POT:3,2,3,2,5,3=1 < DC:3. Dropping word.]

He summons an image of an axe that he simply runs through. Crap. Gigas does manage to get to the Cavern through the surprisingly narrow entrance. Beirus, however, manages to catch up.

[Beirus DEX:5+1=6]
[Gigas SPD:6+2=8]

Gigas dodges the deadly arm-blade quite easily.
+1 Potency!
Go back to studying magic like I didn't just murder a guy.

Back to magic!

[POT:3,5,6,6=5 > DC:2. POT:6,6,2,3=4. 9vs2]

You create an image of a large squid.

[POT:4,3,1=0 < DC:1]

The next spell fizzles.

When you finish your studies, you notice that a bloody guy just dodged away from a quite deadly looking blade attached to a metallic, blue guy.





Scintillant appears on the platform above the Grand Hall!

GM Note
Sorry for the late turn.

It was caused by me being lazy. And also (lazily) planning out an original forum game of my own.

Well, that didn't work. Evidently the RNG (and Fake!Derm, of course) wants me dead.
If I have all ten pool, Retry the words!
Otherwise, Run away!

I probably designed my character's stats poorly.

In this system, you have full pool every turn (unless you have some sort of debuff.)

"This feeling!  I feel more <3 than I ever have before!"

+1 Pool!  More pool means more <3SCIENCE<3!

PS GM:  Shouldn't my gun <3 dispenser be loaded?  Also, I'm apparently still in the Grand Hall.

That was mildly amusing.

"Why won't you just get cut already? Or at least be affected by blood loss."

Cut him for real this time.

I'm trying! If my spell actually works this time, there is... about a 60% chance of it injuring you.

Look around. "huh, seems like no one's near me. Well, let's try saying something out of this weird book." Say some words (using one pool on each), and pick up the result if it doesn't seem immediately dangerous.

Also, is this using the same word set as the original perplexicon? And do we know the power of the words?
