I charge the sword with +1 charge, making it 1/25 till its best (level, upgrade?), while adding a +1 to my searching efforts, leaving me with two turns before I find the potion progress meter 3/6 , then add +2 charges to arcane dreamers potion making kit, and I declare my faction change [ive switched to first person]

The second part of the update has come!

I hoped that I wouldn't get as much homework for when I have to update this game, but alas, I get no such reprieve! Regardless, here is the second part of the update for all of you.

Also, to new players, anything posted during the update will become nulled out. Anything after the update is complete is fair game, though.

====[End-of-Turn Events]====

The Altar Commons keeps a vigil on the forest.

The Monster Pinatas gang up on and deal 12 damage to the Altar Commons!

Ninjatwist_ keeps an eye on the new guy in case he decides to make himself a problem.

The Player Archers keep a look out for the forest.

The Red Shirts continue their advisory.

The Templar Knights are bored.

The Altar Commons has reached the cap of his Knight count.

The Acolyte takes advantage of this lull to Meditate! He will now regenerate 4% of his Dark Magic Meter until he is stopped.

The forest, strangely enough, produces no enemy Mooks.

====[engie_ninja's sidequest]====

Currently in stasis.

====[Revan's Sidequest]====

The Rusty Key finds its door and unlocks! No foes are present... do you peek inside?

====[ConsumerOfAll/Azure's Sidequest]====

???

====[sunnyau's sidequest]====

Currently in stasis.

The Snow Bison rams through your hasty shielding stance, dealing 6 damage to you! Thankfully, the shield blocks the stunning that would have ensued should you have remained unprotected.

Your Empowered Stone Sword and your Cave Detector are still on the ground.

The Snow Bison takes Burning damage!

====[Persecles Subplot]====

Alright everyone! It's the weekend and I'm sure to be able to get an update in, but for now this will have to be a half-update. To any newer players, this means that the EOTE will have logged all the players' actions but no EOTEs will occur. This will also nullify any posts made before the update is complete, just the same as a third-update.

You step into the Forge and come across no enemies, but you do come across a complex machine. It seems like you need some access keys to spur it to life...

You deal 4 damage to the Pinata you injured earlier!

Also, sorry about missing the portable workshop. I'll note it down now.

The update is complete!

Everyone can post now! Also, the Monster Pinatas are going down fast, go for loot quickly! Also, please define your targets, or I'll assign you to an uninjured Pinata.

Revan inserts the Circular Key into its lock.

"Well, looks like we have to find two more keys."

Hypthothesis: I highly suspect somebody will have to die in order for use to acquire at least one.

"Most likely."

They head back up to the Depths first waiting for Fanta to catch up.

Nyarlathotep seems to realize the true threat here and tosses down a flash bang into the midst of the Monster Pinatas, covering his own eye from the flash. A hideous white light consumes the Pinatas blinding them for this turn.

I suggest you finish this lot off soon, otherwise we will be running out of entities.

Eh, if you want to go on a sidequest, then you can choose your own adventure. However, if you want to join in the main plot, feel free to declare a faction switch and join the Anti-Acolyte or Pro-Aolyte side.
