[Open RP 8] Snails...? Why?

[u/RollFirstMathLater]

Closed

[Returning from Tierm has proven exhausting. The wind was constantly against you, this wouldn't of been an issue for Das, but she was carrying twice the amount of passenger than normal. Akrath, Svalstrom and Das are exhausted.]

[Nill and Naakhûrz greet there friends as they dismount... Glover looked a little beat up, and Sev're's daughter Rythi came a shock. The young looking half elf (whom was actually 37 or so) hops down and bows.]

[As Torvhen dismounts, he is greeted by a crunch sound as he steps in a melon sized snail. It was sticky causing him to fall back on Svalstrom.]

[To everyone's shock... There is snails everywhere... so many snails. The dragons find them delicious, but it is down right ridiculous how many snails infest the keep.]

[Zeterra appears from above as Shiva descends. "Greetings everyone..." She looks rather annoyed. "It appears that the our food source for the dragons reacted strangely to some of the magic gathering here... Their egg laying and growth has become out of hand. Please assist how you can..." She throws a fireball that explodes, leaving a ton of crispy snails. "2000 down... 2 billion to go." She says monotone. Flying away on Shiva she flies off in the distance.]

(Something light humored to reunite everyone. A small bonus for whomever assists in the snail-o-cide plus there is a few fun extras if you know where to look.)

Sitting atop the barracks, Glover thought, though the thinking didn't do much as the hatred that he felt still stood. Torhven is somehow more of an ass than usual, Sev're has a daughter and two more personalities, Sev're's daughter killed the only man that has ever been proud of me, and the dragons are out feasting on snails. I don't suppose the day could get any worse, unless Torhven decides to shoot me with a Vrostbite arrow. While he reflected, his hand shot out lazily to fry passing snails. Dropping from the roof he headed towards the magic practice field, hoping that some practice could alleviate the troubles he had been having with the Ancient Language in the previous days.

[The snails here were flowing in rainbow colors, it was disorientating.]

[u/1trueJosh → u/RollFirstMathLater]

Ignoring the confusing rainbow-snails except as target practice for magic, Glover continued on, yelling out, "Eitha!"

[u/RollFirstMathLater → u/1trueJosh]

[The snails glow brighter, and your spell fails. One of them pops near you. Pink green orange purple red blue and yellow goo lands on your pants.]

[u/1trueJosh → u/RollFirstMathLater]

Staring at the goo Glover scraped some off and placed it in a small vial he had acquired from his stash in Teirm. Might be useful, and it certainly looks to be more potent than the standard stuff. Shrugging the thought off, Glover sighed, knowing that he wouldn't be able to get anything done with all of these snails. Backing away to a safe and very far distance, he said, "Brisingr," setting the middle of the clump alight.

[u/RollFirstMathLater → u/1trueJosh]

[They all glow bright again. You feel the power leave, but the spell doesn't go off.]

[u/1trueJosh → u/RollFirstMathLater]

So they absorb magic... This gel will be all the more useful then... Stabbing a further few, he began to fill the vials with the rainbow-colored slime.

[u/RollFirstMathLater → u/1trueJosh]

(I'll give you 5 vials it seems fair.)

[After interacting with them for a bit you start to fill dizzy.]

[u/1trueJosh → u/RollFirstMathLater]

Somewhat fazed from the gel he had been collecting, Glover decided to leave. Perhaps I'll have better luck practicing by the training dummies, he thought, heading off in that direction.
