    Vertani and Delos are basically the only two places left that I am aware I am not supposed to hunt and secretly want to.  Pretty pumped about them being nerfed: less temptation!

    Just parts of it but...

     You pick up the pitcher and say a prayer to the Lord of Righteousness. When your blessing is complete, you upend the jar over yourself, covering your body in fragrant oil.

     You calm your mind and concentrate on the Axioms of Righteousness, focusing on the intent to purify yourself. Your nerves steeled, you thrust your hand into the floating flame. The fire immediately spreads across your oily skin, quickly consuming your flesh. Your thoughts fade to black as the hazy visage of Lord Deucalion fills your vision, stern approval upon His face.
    You have been slain by the purifying flames of Lord Deucalion.

     In a macabre burst of diseased gore, a parasitical larva erupts from beneath your skin, unable to withstand the purifying Flame. It clings to you in stunned disorientation. With sickening speed, a parasitical larva leaps upwards and attaches to your neck, clamping to your skin with painful ferocity.

     To your mounting horror, a parasitical larva continues its movement, burrowing under your exposed skin with vicious, nauseating efficiency. Your nerves alight with agony as every movement of the abhorrent creature resonates through your being.

     Carmell leans forward and carefully begins to sketch a pattern upon your forehead with a clump of coppery charcoal with titian highlights. With a whisper, the ashen lines stabilise into a clear pattern on your skin.

     Carmell takes a brilliantly glowing ember from an aurulent thurible.

     Carmell unflinchingly takes up a brilliantly glowing ember in her hand without regard for the inflicted burns. With a quick movement, she breaks it in twain releasing a writhing flame that hovers aimlessly for a moment before entwining itself with a pattern drawn in ash.

     The incandescent flame merges fully with the ashen pattern suffusing you with a radiant power. Fiery energy dances along the lines of the ashen suffusing you with a warm, cleansing power for several moments before returning to a dormant state.

     Sinuous flame, the potent and undirected remnants of an overcharged ritual, swirls about the room in an ominous dance.

     A ripple of uncontrolled flame sweeps through the room catching you in a wave of burning pain.

     With sickening speed, a parasitical larva leaps upwards and attaches to your neck, clamping to your skin with painful ferocity.

     Finding no sustenance to be had within you, a parasitical larva detaches from your skin, landing on the ground with a sickening 'splat'. It begins to skitter about the room in a searching fashion.

     A parasitical larva turns towards you briefly but quickly turns away, searching once more. A parasitical larva ceases its endless skittering, quivering in the middle of the room, noticeably weaker.

     Halos utters a prayer and smites a parasitical larva with a Deucalic mace.
    Halos has scored an ANNIHILATINGLY POWERFUL CRITICAL hit!
    A parasitical larva has been slain by Halos.

    You forgot to mention the part where you passed it onto someone else and now we need to help that person.
  • That's part two Carmell, calm down!




    Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.
  • It's a damn alien movie up in here!

    Really cool @Atalkez

    Halos makes me think of the stereotypical American man. When in doubt, just bash it witha blunt object.
    I am retired and log into the forums maybe once every 2 months. It was a good 20 years, live your best lives, friends.

    You're a really good sport, @Atalkez. And even though I don't feel this way, I'd like to take this opportunity to use my favorite emoji. :anguished:

    So far less deaths getting purified than you scored becoming evil.  Obviously Good is the way to go.

    The last person I caught hunting Delos was my worst enemy so I had to take the dirt :D 

    But I could let you slide.. or at least just hold onto the evidence until I need it later :)

    Thanks to @Sasiya giving her ship to Greys before retiring:

    Smashing a bottle of champagne against the hull, you proudly dub your ship "The Bad Idea"!

    Anyone who knows Greys knows how long he was dreaming of his own strider.
    An admiral without a ship of his own? Tsk, tsk.

    How did you not have your own ship already??

    Thank goodness. Glad to see this is stopped before it became a big headache of someone pretending to be me while stealing from other people. Thank you admins, you guys are awesome!
    What doesn't kill you gives you exp.

    I am so glad there is a resolution. :)
  • @Valkyn Greys is very poor for a dragon. He doesn't even own a crit pendant. 

    In other news, today about 80,000+ of my coal disappeared from the commodity market without being sold or sent back to my inventory. I think I found an error with an upper limit of selling items at a certain price so be careful guys.  Bugged it and hoping I get it back.
  • KryptonKrypton shi-Khurena
    Good luck! The comm market made my bulk comms disappear too some while ago -- haven't gotten it returned yet.
  • KayeilKayeil Washington State
    Oh I sold some wood and it disappeared today, too.

  • Hey my palatial mansion doesn't heat it-fuckin'-self, ok?

  • Did some ship trades and fishing for the first time in ages (I really, really, really missed sailing, can't go dormant anymore because ships are life), hunted a bit, chatted with novices, worked on getting back into the swing of things, procrastinated on House and house stuff, but I did buy some comms and grab some room credits to save up for upgrades.

  • @Krypton ugh really? Was hoping it was an isolated incident.

    @Aesi so can take the Aesi out of Targossas but not the Targossas out of Aesi?

    @Halos thats no more my ship than the Resilient and the Resilient is like twice as fast.

    what now?

    EDIT: I GET IT!
  • KryptonKrypton shi-Khurena
    @Greys My issue got appended to the bug report today, so maybe someone is actively resolving it now!
  • KayeilKayeil Washington State
    @Greys went fishing today and let me tag along for diving. Didn't get anything exciting but finally got to test out some diving maps that @Skye let us borrow on another for our GUI's. It was GREAT. Made the diving so much easier. Definitely more interested in diving now.
