Adventure Log [LOST]
“Infiltrate the Cryptic Dominion to uncover their plans for manipulating the psychic energies left by the Rupture.”
GM
In the grim expanse of Eonell, you are a Malvorian with the gift of Mindwarp, armed with a plasma blade, an energy shield, and a stealth cloak. Your goal: to infiltrate the Cryptic Dominion and uncover their sinister plans. The derelict Skyfort looms above, shrouded in shadow. As you approach, a dark sorcerer and his mutated hound emerge from the depths, their eyes glowing with unnatural light. The air thrums with tension as they block the path to the Dominion’s hidden sanctum. With your psychic abilities ready and your heart steeled, you prepare for the confrontation. What do you do?
activate the stealth cloak and backstab the sorceror with blade
GM
You vanish from sight as the stealth cloak envelops you in shadow, moving silently behind the sorcerer. As you thrust your plasma blade toward his back, the mutated creature senses the disruption in the air. The sorcerer turns just in time, your blade grazing his side, but not enough to incapacitate him. He casts a warding spell, crackling energy surrounds him. The creature growls, its eyes fixed on you, ready to pounce.
The sorcerer’s attention is split, and you have a moment to strategize. What do you do next?
Debug: The Stealth approach partially succeeded, but the mutated creature's psychic senses alerted them. The attack prompted a defensive spell. Heat increased to 1.
use mindwarp the creature to confuse it then attack
GM
Tapping into your psychic prowess, you unleash a wave of Mindwarp toward the mutated hound. Its eyes flicker in disorientation as you warp its perception of reality. The creature hesitates, growling at shadows only it perceives. With its focus broken, you have a fleeting window to act before the sorcerer regains full control over his hound. The sorcerer, still encased in his warding energy, mutters incantations under his breath, eyes narrowing as he assesses the shifting battle.
The air crackles with potential, a chance to press your advantage. What do you do?
Debug: Mindwarp succeeded in confusing the mutated hound. No heat added. The challenge requires further action against both opponents.
use the plasma blade to finish it off
GM
With the mutated hound still disoriented by your Mindwarp, you seize the moment and charge forward. Your plasma blade hums with deadly energy as you strike, aiming to finish the creature quickly. The glowing eyes of the hound flicker, and with a deft slice, you cut across its hide, sending it crashing to the ground in a heap of smoldering flesh. However, the sorcerer, now without his pet, channels his focus on you, his warding spell crackling ominously. His hands weave through the air, conjuring a torrent of arcane energy aimed directly at you. The battle is far from over as his incantations fill the air. What do you do?
throw the blade at the enemy, aiming for his head
GM
As you hurl your blade towards the sorcerer's head, his warding spell flares brightly, deflecting the weapon and sending it clattering uselessly to the ground. The sorcerer's arcane power swells, and with a final incantation, a surge of eldritch energy envelops you. Darkness closes in, and you feel your consciousness slipping away. The Cryptic Dominion's secrets remain undiscovered, and their plans continue unchecked, shrouded in mystery. The Skyfort's shadows swallow you whole, sealing your fate beneath the dominion's iron rule.
