Ouch. That would be nasty. Then again, I suppose it would be a bit like spamming. Except instead of raising your post count, it would raise your death count.

Aha! Tyranicus is spamming death! :P

Well, we still have three problems to deal with: the rat army, the flooding, and the summoning machine. Of the three, the flooding is the one that has me stumped. You can destroy both the summoning machine and the rats, but how the heck would you get rid of that water?
Maybe in the next chapter Tyranicus will hack into the story and upgrade his death count. :P

The solution to the flooding -- or the trigger for it, at any rate -- was rather blatantly foreshadowed in a previous chapter. More than that I won't say out of respect for the story.

The solution to the flooding is to channel it into Misc! Yes, I know it's not technically possible, but when has that mattered here?

Aw, hell no. Don't send it down here!

Hey wait a minute. Eph, you're here now too! Not to worry though. You're actually a productive member of society, so your deathspan will be short-lived. Err… short-dead'd.

The main reason I'm trying to get others to post is that Gnosis can only communicate with two other characters: Tuuly (presently drowning) and Melora (presently unconscious). That aside, if you have too much on your plate, by all means don't post. MoS has been revived before, it can be revived again.

Actually, I'm pretty confident it already has some sort of a record in that department..

But Tuuly? Heh. That was the day's best.

Chapter 33: Perfection

The bad news is, this is a short chapter. The good news is, this story is going to take longer to resolve than Dikiyoba thought.

All the more reason that we need Tullegolar back. He would know how to fight such an enemy.

Probably some newbie is going to be left stranded in Geneforge forum after death of all nearby senior members and will use tons of canisters, making himself powerful enough to defeat even the Perfect Rat. Then he will approach the Rat Geneforge and ... :P

Be careful with a word, as you would with a sword,

Can also have the power to heal.

Dint, you have Kel and Marlenny running out of the script yet again. This can only lead to more moaning of uselessness from the great K. Can you bear the burden? :(

It's not EoR, since that was already done.

Wait a sec...

Flooding Water - Exodus
Rat Invasion - Rats Aplenty
Statue Reference - Embers of Rebellion
Summoning Machine - Bahssikava

Do I see a pattern forming here?

Let's just say that those aren't always the references I was intending and I don't have a set pattern in mind. But there's really no correct answer, so go right on ahead seeing a pattern.

I see I died. At least I've got a lot company down here in Misc. It beats the long fight up to General forum with the perfected rat. Although I would have liked to have cast enough spray acid to build up a sustained damage long after I'd died.

Yeah... we could practically start our own forum down there. As a healer, I feel rather useless, though.
