Welcome to Sburb! (Dead and Over)

[ArcNitemare]

>Greg:Marvel at new power

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....


Ok enough marveling.Time to get back to work.Your not sure how you did that but,hey,you aren't going to look a gift horse in the mouth.

You can see that Rich has expanded your HOUSE a bit more since you started all of this but he still has a way to go.

A quick examination of the inside of the HOUSE tells you that most of the rooms are unharmed.The LIVING ROOM smells like burnt carpet.

You decide to try your hand at ALCHEMIZING again.

You first make twelve more CAPTCHALOGUE CARD.You will need the space.For your COMPUTER which you shove into your MODUS,eight of the twelve cards being filled by it.You also grab your copy of the ENGLISH DICTIONARY.You just keep it around for if you need to look up words.

COMBINE:ENGLISH DICTIONARY&&COMPUTER=PCHOOOOOOOO

You create.....a LAPTOP!Just an ordinary grey/black LAPTOP.Nothing special about it.Huh,who da thunk it?

Who da thunk it indeed.

Spoiler: OOC

Awesome Picture there CJ.

 

[Connor Lonske]

Spoiler: OOC

That looks awesome, but I'm wearing DUDE'S DUDS. Still, really awesome.

>Connor:Abscond!

You try swimming to the less dangerous islands. You pick the one with a bit of crystals on it. Hopefully that guy can't swim.

 

[CJ1145]

>Present Dirk: Team Fray Motif!

You look at CHAS like he is INSANE. A TEAM FRAY MOTIF? Where would you even get one of those? He says the BAZAAR. You ask him how in the world you would use something like that. He just shrugs at you, and gestures at the TWO GICLOPSES in your path.

As much as you think about it you figure that this TEAM MOTIF is probably your best shot. You think over a bunch of things that you are certain your BRO has already considered, before shrugging and deciding to just go with it.

>DO THE TEAMY THING

 

[senorcromas]

<spoiler=OOC> CJ, was there a specific event in your life that caused you to become The Best, or were you just born that way?

>Rich: Celebrate.

There's no time for that! You instead run downstairs to grab your EARBUDS and HEADPHONES. You'd rather not have to go through another situation like that again.

Geez, fighting these imps sure makes a mess. You make a mental note to clean up after all of this is done.

>Enter kitchen.

 

[Pappytech]

>GM: Be a nice GM. Well, on one hand, Chas should have bought the FRAYMOTIF back on LOSASS, and Dirk should have bought it in the VILLAGE. They both need a copy of the TEAM FRAYMOTIF before they can really pull it off.

On the other hand, the duo has probably earned something awesome by this point.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Chas&Dirk: You proceed to do the TEAMY THING. As you perform the INTERMEZZO OF ILLUSION, copies of yourselves begin flickering into existence all around. After a few seconds, the GICLOPSES are facing a dozen Heirs and a dozen Mentors.

Your clones, although insubstantial, are convincing enough to confuse the GICLOPSES. They begin attacking the Derse underlings, but are unable to deal any damage. However, the GICLOPSES have been completly distracted, and are unable to identify the real Chas and Dirk. They begin simply smashing at anyone they can see.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Greg: You create the WORDSMITH'S BEST FRIEND! It's pretty much just a laptop, but the case has random words appearing and disappearing all over it. Neat.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Connor: All of the islands around you have crystals on them. You end up accidentally swimming back to the first island, where the OGRE is still waiting for you. Oops.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Rich: You enter the KITCHEN, and discover... that it's exactly the way you left it. Yep, no IMP SHENAIGANS going on here, no siree.

You can still hear the IMP you tied up banging on the FRONT DOOR, trying to escape.

 

[Connor Lonske]

>Connor:Oh fuck, well, it was worth a try.

OK, you guess you should at least TRY to finish off this thing.

>Connor:RE-STRIFE!

 

[ArcNitemare]

>Greg:Marvel at Wordsmith's Best Friend

Ooooooooooo...ok thats the second time today.....you need to stop marveling at things...

You do however give it a once over before stuffing the WORDSMITH'S BEST FRIEND into your MODUS.Its definitely cooler than some regular old LAPTOP anyday...yep definitely better.

After a moment of thought,and a moment of quick surgery,you remove the NINJA GLOVES and NINJA BOOTS from your MODUS,as well as two BOOKS, while tossing aside the rest of the NINJA CLOTHING.

You also remove your shoes.

COMBINE:BLACK/GREY SNEAKERS && NINJA BOOTS && SPACE AND IT'S RELATIVE DIMENSION =PCHOOOOOOOO

COMBINE:NINJA GLOVES && THE MIND AND THE PSIONIC=PCHOOOOOOOO

 

[CJ1145]

>STRIFE!

Spoiler

It seems your TEAM MOTIF is working beautifully, if somewhat CRUDELY DRAWN. The GICLOPSES are entirely distracted. But, of course, they're not taking DAMAGE either. That's kind of a downside. You simply must figure out what to do.

>Dirk: Initiate Plan B!

You grab CHAS and run from the BATTLE, preparing the most kickass thing you can possibly think up.

>Yes.

Spoiler

>Hell Yes.

Spoiler

>Hell Fucking Yes.

Spoiler

It is time for the MIDNIGHT TANGO: HYPERION STROBE LIGHTS!

Spoiler

 

[senorcromas]

Rich: Untie Imp.

You'll get to it. first, you pick up your HEADPHONES, and put them back into your STRIFE SPECIBUS, to be safe.

Then, carefully, you walk over to the writhing IMP, and try to UNTIE him.

 

[Pappytech]

>Connor: You and the OGRE square off. It's a harsh battle, but you manage to pull through in the end!

Level up! You are promoted to a level 8 Tiny Guy. +16,000 Boondollars.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Greg: OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!

Well, you have no idea what the BLACK/GREY SNEAKERS && NINJA BOOTS && SPACE AND IT'S RELATIVE DIMENSION makes. It costs a ton of Grist, way more than you have yet. Might be a good idea to get GRISTTORRENT installed...

But, you do create the ASSASSIN'S PUPPETRY GLOVES! Although they look like a simple pair of black gloves, wearing them allows you to assume control of a target's movement, whether the target be alive or inanimate!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Dirk&Chas: Yeah, take that you damn BULLIES! SNAKE EYES pukes up some weird green slime on the GICLOPSES, and your attacks deal massive damage to your opponents. One of the GICLOPSES is destroyed, and the other is barely hanging on. He tries to ABSCOND.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Rich: The IMP, once untied, tries to ABSCOND through the FRONT DOOR.

 

[ArcNitemare]

>Gregon new gloves

You don your new pair of ASSASSIN'S PUPPETRY GLOVES.If the machine is to be believed these things allow you to assume control of a target's movement, whether the target be alive or inanimate.You will have to test that later.Of course you would only control a living target if it was a threat to you or your friend's lives.Anything less would just be amoral and just plain rude.No matter how fun it is to make IMPS dance.

Too bad about the other item.Oh well you will have to just try again later.

You return the NINJA GLOVES and BOOK back into your MODUS and replace the SNEAKERS on your feet.

You return to the LIVING ROOM to find it in tacked,save for the burnt carpet smell.

You contemplate what to do next when a thought strikes you.

You take out the book NINJAS:FACT OR FICTION? from your BACKPACK MODUS and lay it on one of the training racks that never seems to get used.

You focus on it and attempt to do the same thing you did earlier with the fire.Hopefully without destroying the book.

 

[senorcromas]

>Rich: Retrieve EARBUDS.

You let the IMP escape, if only so he'll TELL HIS FRIENDS. You pick up Your EARBUDS and casually walk into the lIVING ROOM. You've had some time to thinks, and you think you've come up with some pretty dang nifty COMBINATION IDEAS, if you do say so yourself.

>Start combining.

Combine: MP3 PLAYER && COMPUTER
Combine: EARBUDS && PIANO WIRE

You briefly wonder what would happen if you combined a CAPTCHALOGUE CARD with something. Can't hurt to try, you guess.

Combine: CAPTCHALOGUE CARD && CAMERA

PCHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[CJ1145]

>Dirk: Cut off the Giclops

Why would you do that? CHAS seems to have it all under control, you see no reason to go after that bumbling oaf. Instead, you are more concerned in figuring out how to LAND THIS BASILISK.

 

[Connor Lonske]

>Connor: Collect grist and move on.

You pick up all that stuff and start swimming over to another is land, the one that is closest.

 

[Pappytech]

>Greg: Despite all your concentration, nothing happens to the book. Nuts.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Chas: Ace attempts to pilot Snake Eyes, but it turns out that Snake Eyes is not a vehicle. As such, the duo is unable to provide you with any air-support.

On the plus side, Snake-Eyes' new headgear boosts his HARD-BROILED METER by quite a bit.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Rich: Sadly, you haven't collected enough Grist to build any of these things. And that's too bad, cause these combonations were super nifty and awesome!

Sigh. Oh well, you guess you could always just slaughter some IMPS.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Dirk: It turns out that you don't have to worry about landing Snake-Eyes. Because he's already falling. Straight down. At a very high speed.

Yeah, it turns out that BASILISKS aren't very good at gliding.

This is probably going to hurt.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Connor: You successfully make it to the next island. Besides the crystals in the center and a couple of trees, it's pretty barren.

 

[ArcNitemare]

>Greg:Focus on book

You try to focus on the BOOK in an attempt to replicate what you did earlier but...no dice.

You spend a few minutes stroking your chin in deep contemplation.It would seem that whatever powers you may or may not have haven't seem to fully awoken yet.You will try again later if your "power" shows itself again.

You think it may be a good idea to check back outside to see if anymore IMPS,BASILISKS,OGRES and whatever else has shown up.They seem to pop up like plot twists in a bad book.

But first!....a trip to the kitchen to give the CAT more food and clean his water.It would be rude of you to just leave him without either.

That done its time....to head back outside.....dun dun dun!!..

Ok you will not do that again in the future.

 

[Connor Lonske]

>Connor:Wait a second, don't you have a map?

Yeah, you do have a map, man that troll guy is a cool guy. Better take a look. You open up the image on your Omni Tool.

 

[CJ1145]

>Dirk: Brace for landing.
