Makes your next 3 attacks inflict a burn on the receiver for 3 turns.
Stock: 4
Prevents you from getting a monster encounter, or if you're already in one, lets you escape from a monster ecounter.
I'll take the cloaking potion, please, sir.
Bought! Would you like to use it before you head off?
I'll save it for a fight. To the south I go!
On your way there, a monster appears!
It has 5 health and doesn't look very strong. (Although, you don't have a weapon, but you can still punch it.)
I take a jab.
Rolls the D20
I rolled a 13.
The monster is now at 4/5 health. It attacks back, putting you at 9/10 HP.
I get in a defensive stance.
You now are less likely to take damage. However, the monster attacks again and still hits you, putting you at 8/10 HP.
I'll use the potion.
You escape. There's a river ahead, which has a more likely chance for a monster to appear. Do you want to try to find a way around it, or try to swim through it?
Is there any way around it? Could I dig below it by taking a stick and jabbing the earth?
I mean, you can't go around it, but maybe you could find a way over it.
Can I take a rock and using it to jab away at a branch, then using it to make an adze, then use the adze to chop down a tree to use as a bridge?
Yep. Luckily, while doing all that no monsters appeared. You cross the river safely and end up near Mt. Everburn.
Do I get to keep my adze as a weapon?
Sure.
I fist pump
We should probably pause this until other people are playing. What do you think?
Go ahead and pause if you want. I'll wait.
