You failed to escape in time.

You are dying. And you aren't the sort to live even if someone killed you.

It's mostly the jagged spear sticking out of your body that is doing you in.

You only awakened moments after it entered your body. What cruel fate.

The very idea repulses you, You never tasted good alive(main reason you never sucked your thumb as a child), So why would being dead magically make your body into tasty meats?

Still though, you do feel a hunger... A need...
For a body.

Uh... Look around.

Possess your corpse, become a zombie!

[Rule Dump Open]
As a Blue Planeswalker, You draw at a rate of 1 per turn.
You are Strongest in Islands and anyplace with large bodies of water. You get an extra passive to your mana pool.

Other Blue beings will usually react more favourably to you. You can easily dominate/possess "mindless" blue creatures, you can even fight to possess a non-animal blue creature.

Normally; Passive mana leaks away at the end of a turn.

Being a blue planeswalker, white and black lands do not adversely affect you.

White and Black beings are slightly more friendly towards you. You can possess/dominate "mindless" white and black creatures.

While in Red or Green Lands, you recieve no passive mana, and are clearly weaker.

Green beings hate your guts generally.
Red beings will find you dull and irritating.
You cannot possess Green beings, and red ones are almost always too chaotic.

Drawing Mana from lands close to you is easier than drawing mana from afar or summoning it.

Artifacts that are not creatures offer no resistance, Unless they are green or red.

You have a make a connection to a land/place to draw mana from it.
A creature does not need to be summoned if it is already present.

You gain one passive mana from the place/land you are present at, the colour is determined by the land/place.

Combat will be explained when it happens.

Ok, the local blue mana is because this is an alchemist lab which is a place of knowledge and learning, while the black mana is due to the fact that they cut people up to get the knowledge, am I right?

Also, is the crab you're possessing 0/2 or 0/3? Pic and post are not in sync.

Ask the skull about what the mad alchemist wanted to use your body for. Surely an observant and intelligent undead like him has eavesdropped on the alchemist.

Does this mean she wants to make a plane, like mirrodin? Or is it MORE than that?

Right votan time, there is a few ways we can do the combat, so...
Should it be more like the actual cardgame MTG?
Should it be less?

Random libary? (what card you "draw" is determined by dice roll)
More puzzle like than card game?
Or more "realistic"?
It will be turn based whatever is voted. That said, we can just cut the mechanics completely and just freeform all the way.

good question. how about we don't trouble ourselves with a lot of mechanics and just focus on that which makes MTG awesome, namely the premise of ridiculously powerful summoners fighting other ridiculously powerful summoners using literal armies of creatures from all kinds of various planes and heritages and legendary artifacts and spells powerful enough to devastate aforemenioned armies?

well, that's the way I see it, anyway.

Hug Skull. Read notes. Take the Jar of Eyeballs (or ask Skull to hold it for you)

It regenerates by eating the dead.

Well, I got a few ideas about taking out the Skaab Juggernaut.

Option A is Unsummon.... which we can't use since we have no blue mana.

Option B is for Skullerhand to sneak up behind one of the suits of armour, while not letting that the Juggernaut not see it. Next, you show yourself, the Juggernaut charges you, you pull the carpet from up under his legs and hopefully, it will fall in position for Skull-o-matic to drop the halberd on the bugger.

Option C is to treat this guy as a bullfight boss. If the flavour text says that it doesn't know how to stop, let's help him not stop going out a window or a wall or a trap.

I could supply the homunclus with black mana, but Skullerhand is currently taking a tithe of one black and one blue, so not really an option till I get more mana sources.

"What you can't possess, destroy... er... well maybe not a good idea."

>>381156
I've a couple of ideas... unfortunatly I can't really use much mana if I'm putting all my blue into growing this body.

I explain my option B to Skullerhand.
[SH]"You seriously think a halberd is going to stop that monster?"

...
Well...
That leaves the last plan.
Hopefully it really doesn't know how to stop.

Well that worked better than expected.

There seems to be some commotion going on outside.

Looking through the hole the Skaab left, A Man stands far below, the juggernuaght's flaming broiled body made ash behind him.
[SH]"Not good, that's Handel, the Blaze Inquisitor. He's completely mad, an arsonist hiding under a false banner of Avacyn's Church, we need to flee quickly, he's likely to burn this whole area down."

escape to another plane

Unsummon seems like the best option here- this location is very good for drawing mana and we may not have exhausted its available resources yet, so abandoning it would suck. How long will it take to gather enough blue mana to pull it off, if we make that our highest priority?

>>381448

uh. I'm not sure if the dude is a summon, dude.

we can't fight a free-roaming Arson Paladin using cute little crabs, a jar of eyeballs and some low-level non-aggressive spells.

>>381416
Can he get in? If he can't get in he can't burn anything you know.

>>381477
The spell "Unsummon" affects any creature. It should send him back to wherever he came from unless he's somehow immune to it.
