    For science!
    Dochitha snaps his fingers in front of you.
    Dochitha SNAPPED
    Dochitha SNAPPED
    Dochitha SNAPPED
    Dochitha SNAPPED
    You have emoted: Kandra is stolen.
    You quickly break the seal on a phial of destructive serum and bring it to your mouth.
    Liquid fire courses through your veins, your muscles screaming in agony as they are driven far beyond mortal limitations.
    Your eyes widen in disbelief as you shout, "Oh my GODS!"
    Dochitha says in an all-consuming, frosty voice, "Shit."
    You wave goodbye.
    Dochitha says in an all-consuming, frosty voice, "Shit."
    Dochitha says in an all-consuming, frosty voice, "Shit."
    Sentry Arctanin Imperio says, "What did you do?"
    Dochitha says in an all-consuming, frosty voice, "SHIT."
    Sentry Arctanin Imperio says, "Oh."
    Dochitha says in an all-consuming, frosty voice, "She is dying."
    Arctanin beckons you to him.
    Arctanin beckons you to him.
    Arctanin beckons you to him.
    Arctanin beckons you to him.
    Your body having been pushed too far, you feel the vicious snapping sensation of muscles tearing and organs rupturing before darkness encroaches upon you.
    You have been slain by misadventure.

    Haha @Kandra here's my view:
    You peer about yourself unscrupulously.
    You say in an all-consuming, frosty voice, "Force mayo walk back home."

    Kandra sways back and forth.
    Kandra gives a pained sigh.
    Shieldlord Kandra Dawyn says in Cyrenese, "Have one?"

    With well-practiced ease, Kandra adds various minerals to a glass phial, before stoppering the top.
    Shieldlord Kandra Dawyn says in Cyrenese, "Okay i have one."
    Shieldlord Kandra Dawyn says in Cyrenese, "Force."

    You give a horrified gasp.
    You prepare yourself to hypnotise your victim, Kandra.
    You fix Kandra with an entrancing stare, and smile in satisfaction as you realise that her mind is yours.
    You issue the suggestion, concealing it deep within Kandra's mind.
    You draw Kandra out of her hypnotic daze, your suggestions indelibly printed on her mind.

    You snap your fingers in front of Kandra.

    Kandra is stolen.
    Kandra expertly breaks the seal of a phial of destructive serum and brings it to her mouth.
    Kandra's face contorts as if in great pain, and the muscles beneath her skin flex and spasm 
    uncontrollably.

    Kandra's eyes widen in disbelief as she shouts, "Oh my GODS!"
    ...
    ...
    Kandra jerks violently, face going abruptly slack before she crumples, lifeless, to the ground.
    Kandra has been slain by misadventure.
    A pygmy hippo falls from Kandra's corpse.

    (Cyrene): Kandra says, "Today we learned that you can force an alchemist to commit suicide."
    Tagging @Tecton @Markarios It shouldn't be forceable? 

    Shieldlord Kandra Dawyn sticks out her tongue and says to you in Cyrenese, "Now we're even."

  • Picking a random target and mashing my main damage attack works pretty well for me in group fights. I usually let people with lower damage do the fancy shit.

    Took so long hmm... S&B?
  • S&B doesn't even need curare, just use smash mid for paralysis and venoms for whatever other affliction you want in your combination. Xaden is a dual cutting Runewarden, though, so his prep times should be pretty damn fast.

  • You put a paper cone of star-vine seeds into a ceramic pot filled with soil.

    You create a hole in a ceramic pot filled with soil and pour the contents of a paper cone of star-vine seeds into it before covering it up with a handful of earth.


    I don't know why but I absolutely love this! I'm so curious what it will look like when it starts grow. :3

  • SkyeSkye The Duchess Bellatere
    I'm pretty excited about this too :) I hope we get more seeds and stuff in future as well. Maybe even fruit tree saplings

    It's pretty quick! I planted mine only a few hours ago and... I happened to walk in just as it hit dawn:

    Jarrod follows you north.
    Wandering between ridges.
    Much of the heavens are blotted out by clouds, the dawn sun struggling to break through. A green-flowered
    ginseng plant has been planted here. A low-slung myrrh bush is here. A lobelia wildflower is growing here.
    A low-lying wild ginger plant is growing here. A red elm tree grows here, its branches gently swaying in
    the breeze. A purple coneflower grows here, its large stalk straining towards the sky. A selection of
    fruits dangles from nearby branches. Some vegetables have been planted here. A sigil in the shape of a
    small, rectangular monolith is on the ground. Lying flat on the ground is a key-shaped sigil. There are 3
    seed-speckled ceramic pots here.
    You see exits leading east, southeast, south, and in (closed door).

    This ceramic pot is crafted into a square shape and decorated with a mosaic of red, green and blue
    colours on a base of vibrant yellow. Swirling vine patterns creep over the exterior and curl into leaf-
    like patterns around the rim. Three small, round holes are drilled into the base of this partially-filled
    container, which allows excess water to drain away from the soil contained within. Tiny fledgling leaves
    sprout from the seeds planted within the loam, the shoots barely clearing the surface.
    It has 99 months of usefulness left.
    It weighs about 2 pounds and 3 ounce(s).
    It bears the distinctive mark of Skye.

    Damn. I have to buy seeds? He gave me a pot but seeds weren't available at the time, so I figured something was already planted :(

    EDIT: I can't put seeds in it, so I'm assuming something -is- planted, it's just taking forever. Or bugged.

    EDIT EDIT: Watering it actually does something now, as opposed to yesterday when it did nothing, so I'm assuming it's fixed.

    EDIT EDIT EDIT: And it's no longer non-decay. Shame.
    Huh. Neat.
  • SkyeSkye The Duchess Bellatere
    did you buy soil to go with the seeds?

    Centre Crossing.

    The sun sinks toward the cloudless horizon, shining out radiant and fiery from the western skies. A 

    runic totem is planted solidly in the ground. There are 4 crystalline golems here. A fierce mountain 

    falcon surveys the surroundings with keen eyes. The Cyrenian Clock Tower rises majestically from the 

    heart of the crossing, watching over the city and surrounding valley. Reserved and watchful, an 

    imperial guardsman paces here, his expression impassive. Possessed of a preternatural stillness, a 

    venerable monk exudes an aura of quiet tranquillity. Mounted atop a sleek snow panther, a mountain 

    archer coolly scans the distant peaks. Wings folded majestically over his back, Blu, the Guardian 

    Dragon of Cyrene breathes clouds of icy mist into the air. Rapier glinting in the light, a dashing 

    young troubadour fences with an imagined foe. A sigil in the shape of a small, rectangular monolith 

    is on the ground. An obsidian eye sigil is here. A shimmering orb lies here, illuminating the 

    surrounding area with a slight glow. A mottled Mhojave desert falcon glides effortlessly to and fro. 

    A long-horned battle ram stands here, padding at the ground with anxious anticipation. Seeds speckle 

    the soil of a ceramic pot that has been placed on the ground here. An intricate bench of dark blue 

    marble stands here invitingly. A stone pedestal is here. A stone bench is here. 

    I'm assuming that's it.
    Huh. Neat.

    what's the syntax for watering the pot? Or do you just pour water over it or something? Cause that's what I did when I got mine but there wasn't a special message.

    EDIT: Ok I figured it out a bit. if you TOUCH POT you can test the dryness of the soil. (The soil of a young seedling plant seems parched. Perhaps you should DRIBBLE some water over the pot.) And then you can empty vials of water on the pot or you can just do DRIBBLE POT to water them. May need to be done several times.

    It still needs a bit of work though, because you only seem to get a message if the soil is dry. And after that you just get blank prompts when you try and check.

    POUR WATER ON POT

    You empty out a black-walnut vial on top of a seed-speckled ceramic pot, covering it in water.

    The water soaks rapidly into the soil of a seed-speckled ceramic pot, keeping it adequately hydrated.
