Thank you.

"Good bye, old hammer."
Reforge the hammer into a great sword.

Torrent, Tokochiro, actions.

What are you slashing at? The crab thing you were fighting got blasted by the water and is now out of sight and out of mind.
... And you're at a distance from Foraqe. It can't even hit you unless it shoots another blast of water (which it won't).

Roll is here.

Torrent (Gillian) (2 - 1 = 1)

Alright. It must be weakened! Now's your chance to activate... DAGGER DRILL VORTEX OF DEEEEEATH! You fly through the air like a bullet, headed straight for your enemy, and-
*WHUMP*
You get swatted straight to the ground by a flailing tentacle.
Your arm feels funny. That is, if funny means waves and waves of agonizing pain.




Ociamarru (Nikolai) (8 + 2 = 10)

You walk your way through the shell, hearing only the occasional drip drip of water in the deep labyrinthine maze of darkness. Only your senses lead you to your final destination.
Foraqe. From the back it appears like a giant slug. There is nothing else to it from this side, besides a mass of slimy skin - which you intend to rip apart.

You hack away with your insanely durable plant in one hand an the Talisman in the other. Flesh is being sliced off of Foraqe like soft cheese. You can feel pain emanating from the wounds. Lots of it.




caekdaemon (Anderson) (7 + 2 = 9)

"Good bye, old hammer."

With a mournful clang, the hammer is placed into the forge to be melted down into usable metal. You're not quite sure what it's made of, but it takes quite a while for it to be reduced to a shape-able state. Something interesting happens as you're forging. The hammer seems to flow into the shape that you wish it to take. It's almost as if through your special Glyph ability, it's sensing your intention... you wonder for a second what you could do if the Mental Forge was stronger.

With many strikes of your forging hammer, you change the dwarven weapon into a great blade, that glimmers with a golden light as red hot sparks fly from it. The hilt flows out from the main blade like it was meant to be the way you wanted it. When you're finished, you look upon your work.

The entirety of the sword is long enough to reach your chest when it stands straight up, and it glows golden-gray with the pale luster of dwarf-metal. The blade is thick enough to withstand many strikes, but thin and flexible enough to bend under duress. It is made wide for cleaving through foes, and can be handled comfortably with one or two hands... although you're certain that you'll need two.




CaveCricket (Raphael) (8 - 2 = 6)

You spit up some water, stand up, and transform, with some difficulty, into a hawk. The poison spike, however, remains fixed to you, simply transferring to your leg. You suppose its better than having a needle for a wing...

You can see the hole in the top of Foraqe's shell from the air. It's sizable enough... for normal people. But only just. Terry couldn't fit in that with his Golem.




Tokochiro (Johni) (2 - 5 = )

You don't regenerate very fast. In fact, now that you're paying attention to it, it seems to go SLOWER.
Oh wait. You don't have to regenerate bruises because nothing is actually broken or gone.

Which means you can do absolutely nothing about them besides waiting for them to heal naturally. Hm.




Phd (John Adams) (5)

You quickly get the idea, and lift up a sizeable pile of rubble. With a throwing motion, it goes hurtling towards the Nautilus. (5 v. 0) It hits, leaving several red marks in the creature's pale skin.



NPCs

Gabriel

Gabriel rises from the rubble he was hiding behind and jumps straight into the fray, yelling loudly. (9 v. 0) He hacks two flailing tentacles in half with a single stroke, (4 v. 5), and sidesteps a third as it crashes into the sand next to him.




Terry

Terry leaps to his feet and (12 v. 0) smashes the body of the Hunchback into Foraqe's head, shoulder first.

Events:

Foraqe screams an unearthly scream and begins pulling into its shell.

Because you didn't describe it well enough for me to understand. -_-

Maybe it would be better not to say this, but...

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE FINALLY SATISFIED WITH YOUR DAMN EQUIPMENT.

I am not satisfied.

Yet.

There are always more improvements to be done...

Like Improve the boot straps.

Just kidding. I'm only screwing with you.

Or am I?

Yes, because the bootstraps are going to protect you so much more than the full plate armor will.

I'm already wearing full plate, right?
