GM: Ack. But avoiding smells that you have a STRONG phobia against is not just saying 'ignore'. Not that simple. So need to elaborate on this simple method.

GM: Ack. ------------------------------------------------------------ [New Stuff] [Febris 9th, 1635TH] [Time: 5:01 pm] [Unknown Location] [Audience Room - Current room] [Phase 7] Fremea feeling wounded flies away and then turns around holding her dagger she does a hit and run attack. But the blade is too high as she weaves away avoiding any close contact range with the bull-shifter. Maelorna can hear one other than Shifter #2 yell out a threat. 'Are you kidding me, another braggart?, she thinks to herself, while giggling playfully as Zin goes to work tearing Shifter #4's flesh asunder. "Again love," she commands him indicating Shifter #4 who still seems to have a little life left, if the twitching of his body is an indication. She sighs as her delight in seeing the shifter #4 dying is interrupted and she gives a sideways glance at the female, the one that appears to be Z'layha, the girl is obviously wanting the dagger in her hand, if based upon the yammering she's doing and gesturing at it. 'Get your own weapon' she thinks as she turns her attention from the human and back to Zin, ignoring her, while watching him play with her meal. 'Again, I want more. I want it all!' the ever present voice calls out. Maelorna knows she's full, but the hunger is still there, why?' she questions, 'As the words she spoke to Lucria spring forth and she mentally curses, the promise she made was broken, was she the monster, the demon she looked like? There would be no taking it slow and easy with the group if they survived this, as she would only be a monster in their eyes, even if she tried to hide herself within the human shell of her other half. She can only hope to end the shifters one at a time if she has to, leaving Zin for last 'We already know how to deal with him little one, just keep him enthralled with you.' the voice promises. The cold anguish of the hunger rears it's head again and she doesn't want to stop, she coos softly, attempting to feed upon the last vestiges of life from the fallen shifter, wanting it to perish. But Mae realizes she is too far to drain from the shifter. Unali kneels and stabs the dying shifter over and over ensuring it is dead. Shifter's #4 natural healing, reforming its body back, ends and the creature does not seem to be moving. Shifter #3 turns both of his claws toward Fuk and swipes at the constable. The first claw misses but the second tears a nasty line across his chest drawing blood. Shifter #2 tries to extend it's arms to grab Fremea from the air but the blasted thing is too fast and she dodges him easily. Zin sees the shifter dead and lumbers toward Mae for new orders. A odd look crosses his face at seeing Mae. Kiet sees no one stopping and using his hand-spike he glares and then stabs Kell in the side. The strength of Kiet rips through flesh and ribs. Kell gasps and realizes his lung has just been pierced. Kiet releases Kell and tosses him to the ground limp. Arawn seeing Kell fall changes his plans. It is too late to cast a spell but he reaches up bringing his Cryx crested finger-blade toward Kiet. Arawn does a fake swipe and then thrusts it right at Kiet's chest. The Cryx seems to sparkle and shimmer on contact. Arawn considers his options. He requests the shifter be gone or formed into shaper-material like the finger. But it must take time as this is a larger mass. Mournath stabs toward shifter #3 with his spear but the creature sees it and his body seems to flinch away by reflex. Z'leyra can't stand the smells. She darts back and forth trying to find a no-smell area. But ends up in the same place. The dust, the sweat, the sulfur and body odors is causing her spine to ache! She raises her great sword and considers chopping off her nose but that would make even bigger places to smell. She holds her nose but knows she has to use both hands for her sword. Z'leyra notice Kell fall and knows that might smell very bad the stink of death! But her brain tells her to help him to save him. But then those half-elves do smell something fierce! Fuk stabs shifter #3 with his sword doing 3 points of damage to his lower abdomen. Pyan stabs Shifter #3 but the blade seems to bounce off the shifter's skin. Dorhak swings his mace at Shifter #3 doing 14 poitns of damage as it sheds bits of 'flesh' from the creature. Z'layha stares at Mae and wonders why she is ignoring her. She glances at her sister who seems to be acting a bit crazy. [Phase 8] Z'layha prepares a spell and plans to get her dagger back. She speaks the quick words and gestures right at Mae. The Death Blast hits Mae causing her to immediately drop. Mae's spirit is thrown out of her body and spirals away but no one can see it. The now comatose Mae lays on her back staring up at the cave ceiling. Fremea does another hit and run head with her dagger but fails to strike the shifter again. Unali watches Mae fall and shrugs. A woman does have favor on her own daggers. As she twirls the magical dagger in her own hand. She turns and moves north west to help Arawn and the others. Shifter #2 extends one long arm instead of two short ones reforming his hands. He slams the one arm against Fremea as she tries to fly away. The Fae is slammed against the west wall face first and slides down the rock wall a bit dazed. The shifter smiles knowing he has her now! Shifter #3 who was just hit by Dorhak twists and turns toward the dwarf. It reforms into four arms. With two he slaps the mace from the dwarf's hands. With the other hands he grabs the dwarf and raises him high above over his head. Turning with the Dwarf the shifter moves to the north wall. As he moves he looks up now understanding the dwarf's language through the genetic contact, then says "a short wait." Then grins at the joke. Getting to the wall he extends his free arm and taps the stone button to open the 'stone window'. He then twists and turns forcing the dwarf backwards and then forwards. He does this three quick times and then tosses the dwarf out of the window. "It's just a short drop!" He yells out the window and waves his free hands. Zin's face contorts and seems to have his eyes glaze over and back to normal and glaze again. Being so close to the seductress is too much. "I want to be one with you!" He says and then kneels over the comatose Mae. He begins to grow more arms and organs he saw in the minds of others used for sexual reproduction according to the other minds. He mounts the comatose Mae and begins to thrust hard. As he does one of his hands begins to from a shaft and enters her mouth. But as the thrusting gets heavy Zin's entire body seems to shift and dissolve upon Mae as it begins to melt onto Mae and try to merge with the human. Kiet at the same time stares at Arawn now seeing him with ease. As the Cryx begins to spark Kiet forms a hole around it into a open space. Making the item useless. Then at the same time he yells, "it is time we leave!" He extends one arm and his pincher wraps around Arawn's throat holding him in place. With his other hand he forms a pry with two large fingers and pierces Arawn's throat. Ready to force pry further and take off the Alfar's head. Confused Mournath sees Dorhak tossed out the window as if the dwarf has nothing but shortcomings. Well he is short. Turning he wonders if he can take the shifter alive or die as Dorhak surely has. Z'leyra lowers her sword knowing that would be a useless gesture. She comes up with another idea! she kneels down and scoops up sand in her hand and stuffs her nostrils. The smell is awful. But at least she can't smell anything else for a short. She finishes her stuffing of her nose with dirt and stands ready to fight. Then sneezes causes a cloud of sand to fall out. The smell of her own sneeze is like a outhouse after noon! Fuk rushes forward to attack the shifter that just dwarf tossed the small one out. He thrusts into his back his sword doing 6 points to his 'back'. Pyan looks at Kiet who is grabbing something but can't see. What is Kiet doing? Dorhak outside begins his descent. He curses and curses as he falls. He didn't realize this was a tall mountain. Did that shifter just make a joke of his height? No one insults dwarves like that and lives! But he did say it was a short fall but it seems to go on and on. Far below he sees a lava lake and sees a bit of dry land. Maybe he can flap his arms and land there instead of the lava! He begins to flap and flap as he flails his legs. Only a short time left he sees the ground rush up. But no! He'll miss the land and will hit the lava. Maybe he can land on the shield and leap to the land? He twists his arm around and puts his shield downward. Splash he impacts the lava. But then he realizes his legs are too high up and moving toward the lava. He twists to do as that traitor Kiet does and use a acrobatic move. It works! He lands with his toes only hitting the edge as he tries to stand awkwardly o the shield. Now to only leap to safety only 3 feet away. Then a rock that was dislodged when he fell from the 'window' hits him in the head and he falls flat backwards. Z'layha walks forward and grabs her dagger from Mae's limp hand. She grunts as if to say 'I did ask.' [Phase 9] Actions? Comments? Next Update.. Saturday? GM: Ok! This isn't good folks. Very bad rolls for party. Maybe you should've listened to Kiet's warning and just stop? I have something to do Tue/Wed so next update is Saturday. I hope you guys come up with some good actions! GM: Arawn - Never listed what was going to be done once Cryx hits Kiet? I wasn't sure if you'd want to help Kell or not. You are probably next phase to death if he just inserts his 'fingers' and twists. Dorhak: Sorry man. When you have a being that has tons more strength then you and just man-handles err dwarf handles you there is not much to do. I did roll to see if he'd just tear you apart or use the window and it rolled window. Sorry not much I can do to stop that. Bad fate roll. I did roll to see if there was a CHANCE to escape as above. But you were 2% off. It was so darn close. I am truly sorry man. I hate to do this to you a new player. Maybe you can be darth vader? Maybe Arawn can restore you and rebuild you? We can try that? Fremea - You are badly dazed. Keep in mind you do move before him. But there is a chance the dazed thing will prevent flight. Kell - Mark where are you!? If you don't get help soon. Maybe if the others had stopped. There is hope but would need a healer asap. We can hope at least. If you were here it'd help as well. Unali - I assume go after the shifter by window or go help Arawn - but you can't see him. But can see the sparks of the Cryx. Mae - There is hope if get help. Shamans who can reattach the spirit. But if only just handed over her dagger? Ironically there are two shamans here the one that just took you out and Z'leyra. So there is hope! Though if you become-one with Zin too fast then well it might be a problem. You are comatose so mental control is out of Zin. We'll see if the shamns help you next phase.
