  • [i]Luck tosses his arm up and a flurry of small blades launch into the sky. His nervous manner turns into a half-smile.[/i] “I assure you, we can still talk this through.”

  • [spoiler]Luck often uses fate manipulation, which doesn’t play well with rolls. So, I’ll just let you decide if/when what hits what and how.[/spoiler] [i]Waiting for the approach, Luck tosses a few more knives to the sky; none have come down, as of yet.[/i]

  • [i]As the wolves draw nears, knives begin raining from the sky. With prescient precision they fall upon the wolves, just behind the skull without fail.[/i]

  • [spoiler]Not...quite what I meant, but meh! These poor pups only have a handful of hit points anyway. This other beastie however...[/spoiler] The knives fall and the three wolves are struck down, the larger one sliding past your feet. Then, you hear a deep guttural laugh from the woods ahead...

  • As you shout, the beast emerges! The creature appears blurry, as if your eyes refuse to focus upon it for too long. What you can make out is that the creature is large and thin with a gray, vaguely feline body. It's mostly hairless with patches of long fur and lashing tendrils along its spine. It has three sets of pale eyes and six exaggerated limbs ending with curved talons. The Nightmare smiles, revealing rows of needle like teeth, and begins to slowly circle you...

  • [i]Luck flicks his hands like one would draw revolvers and two daggers—Gamble and Gambit—appear in his hands.[/i] [spoiler] For prior clarification kinetic energy can be taken by one dagger and expelled out the other. They also have altered kinetic properties. Of course, all attacks, blocks or other actions have an understood ‘attempts to’ in front.[/spoiler]

  • [i] Bright, silvery ichor drips from Luck’s back, though his composure remains stable. He throws Gamble over the creatures head, then Gambit straight for the throat. As Gambit reaches halfway to its target, Gamble alters it’s course from behind the Nightmare to shoot for the nape.[/i]

  • The Nightmares blur intensifies and the blades pass through its form harmlessly. Then it stutters across the clearing towards you, whipping a tendril around your leg, attempting to drag you with it!

    [i]Luck allows his legs to be yanked from beneath him, tensing the muscles in his back to brace against the ground. White energy dances over his hand, but he makes no move to stop the tendril.[/i]

  • The Nightmare chomps down on the blades and hisses. Then pulls back injuring itself further, wisps of shadow rising from the wounds. It then twirls and slaps you with its tail! [spoiler]Which I've only just realized is not included in my notes description. Doh[/spoiler]

  • [i]Luck grows shards of silver over his forearm to take the brunt of the blow. On his other arm, similar shards form into a point, which he uses to stab at the beast’s torso.[/i]
