She grabs the dice, feeling them for weights, None, good, she rolls @Ancient Elantrian Quote 1, 4, 6 The man swore when he saw the results. He slid over four chips, each a vial of chromium.

Dragonheir he/him Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 1 hour ago, Edema Rue said: It can have some iron in it, but not enough to do anything until he’s had a lot. Tondon doesn’t care if he won’t be able to pull anything. He just wants his iron sight back. He’s not quite an iron savant, but he’s close, so being without it is causing some major panic. Tondon burns iron, sitting up straighter, but also going from crouching to lounging. He smiles and looks around at the metal lines, the highstorm water giving off a very faint blue. He searches for a better source of metal that could be one of the loot boxes, a dropped metal item that he could file or use as a metalmind, or a decent anchor he could use to maneuver or find this place once he had more supplies. For the first time since he even got to this century, he feels confident, and understands his goals. At that exact moment, his iron runs out. “Ruin.” Depending on what the short burn gave him, he’ll either try to drink more storm water (maybe make a distilling device) or check out the potential recourses he found.

SmilingPanda19 Hi/Ho Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 1 hour ago, Edema Rue said: Gavin looked away, coughing. You can’t let him see. Idiot! “W-what i-i-if th-they d-d-die b-b-b-before y-y-you c-c-can m-m-make th-them f-f-fall i-in l-l-l-love?” He blinked earnestly, hoping his father’s broken English would cover his mistake. He watched the screens as they fight. His English wasn’t perfect so he just brushed over it. “I can only offer them what they are willing and capable of receiving…” He watches the screen and whispers. “même si je prie pour qu'ils vivent.” He leans over and the microphone on Tinker clicks. “You know what you have to do…” It clicks silent. @The Bookwyrm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s too soft. He cares too much. He doesn’t understand that the most beautiful art comes from the most desperate people…abruptly, Gavin stiffened, feeling something sharp and warm and dangerous come over him. A picture began to form in his mind…no, no, no, not now… “Y-you,” he said, pointing at a random assistant, who froze. “G-g-g— g-get m-m-my p-p-paint. A-and a c-canvas.” The assistant scurried off, and Gavin turned back to the screen, the painting in his mind spreading and growing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unintelligenius he/him Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 (edited) Quelkin sees the blood spurt from his arm before a biting pain erupts down his arm. But he was close friends with pain. Ever since his parents, ever since his years on the streets. He knew pain and knew when to ignore it. So he ignored it. And slammed his quarterstaff down onto @Spark of Hope's head, then he lunges for the bag hoping to grab it and run.

Unintelligenius he/him Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 "Nacho some help here" Quelkin yells as he gets pinned. "Your going to have to get yourself out of this one" he replies. "Storming spren, won't even help me when I'm about to die." "You focus to much on your pewter, use the stormlight", Nacho says. Quelkin throws himself to the ground and coats the floor in stormlight, sticking @The Bookwyrm to the ground in the process. Quelkin stands up with the bag in hand and inhales sharply taking in more stormlight. He turns a starts running into the jungle as his wounds begin to heal.

Lotus Blossom she/her Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 Having been infused with enough stormlight, Astra stands in the storm. "Mark, dear," she begins gently, voice calm and steady through the wind, "I'll come back in a moment. I must survey the area." @The Stormfather And Astra, the second ideal Willshaper, sets out during the highstorm, a new burst of energy filling her lungs. You ready? Rivia asked. Always, darling. Astra smiled, with that usual air of haughtiness, and summoned her blade. She ran off into the open underbrush of the jungle, tossed and turned by the highstorm. Calling. Looking. Praying. For just something. Something of use. Or someone. [anyone who is outside in the jungle and is a radiant... you can interact with her rn if you'd like to] Freedom. That was why she was here. And she had every right to get it. For herself. For Sawyin. She brushed back her hair and exhaled quickly.
