Special Powers! 2nd Epic (Revival)

[artimies7]

Well, if there's smoke, there might be ring-boiling lava!
1: Start climbing the mountain to see if there's an active volcano nearby.
2: Spot one to the west.
3: Shudder at the horribly forbidding evil stuff around it.
I've been reading LotR lately. Can you tell?

At the forest, I wind-walk around a trunk to reach a branch pretty far off the ground. I sit there, injured leg resting along the branch, head leaning against the trunk.
Damn, I think to myself. I guess I wasn't able to stop the Neophyte from summoning...whatever that was. But I have to hurry up and report my findings to the leader, is the thought that was floating around my mind, me not knowing that my information on Zblader's group is incorrect.
I reach into my pocket and take out the Death Amulet, staring into the skull symbol. There  are scratches all over the amulet, and it lost its shine, but dark, evil magic emanates inside its very core. It must be ancient, containing the power of thousands of sacrificed souls. Maybe I should bring it to a priest first...or...maybe I could use this power for myself? With these thoughts, I drift to sleep..
1. Find resting place inside forest.
2. Rest.
3. Rest.

Sorry sorry about my 2+ week absence, random stuff happened and my internet exploded and such and the tech guy took forever to come, ect, ect.
Shrike smiled. "Here's what I want you to do; a Neophyte stole something very important from me.... I want you to get it back."
  What could he want that is so important? "What is it I'm looking for?"
  "... A ring."
  I stepped out the door and the wind swirled around me, within a few minutes a emerald green Forest Spirit stood before me. I put my hand on it's head and absorbed it's power, glossy wings springing from my back as it's energy went into me. As I jolted into the air I glanced at a bit of paper given to me by Shrike; it was a map enchanted with his herbs and alchemy, on the map was two moving dots; myself, and the ring.
1: Summon Forest Spirit 1/1
2: Absorb the Forest Spirits power, gaining wings.
3: Fly towards the ring

[artimies7]

1: Keep going toward dangerous-looking mountain.
2: Head down a cleft in the rock that looks moderatly less deadly.
3: Hope that winged guy isn't looking at me.
Crap. He *is* looking at me.

I think I'll join in, if that's ok.
Here's my character:

The Mob
Description: No one really knows much about them or who they are.  It is currently unknown how many mobsters there are, what their intentions are, or how powerful they have become.  Only one shred of information is known about them: their leader is known as MildlyFrightenedBoy.

Starter Item: Cell Phone
Effect: When engaged in battle, MildlyFrightenedBoy begins with two Mobsters and gains one Mobster on the beginning of every other turn.  MildlyFrightenedBoy may also use his Cell Phone to call for reinforcements in order to gain one extra Mobster at the beginning of the next battle, provided that it does not begin in the next two turns.  He may also set up an Ambush at the current location, which takes a total of three turns.  If an unfriendly character moves into a location where an Ambush is set up, they automatically engage in battle with MildlyFrightenedBoy and start with only 80 health.  However, MildlyFrightenedBoy is (currently) oblivious to the existence of magic, and cannot summon creatures other than Mobsters.  MildlyFrightenedBoy does not have or need quanta to use the skill "Assassinate"; the cost is only present if an enemy uses Fractal or Twin Universe on a Mobster.
Mobster:
MildlyFrightenedBoy looks down at the terrain beneath.  There appears to be two mountains surrounded by a thick, dense forest.  The mountain facing the North is slightly shorter than its southern counterpart.  In the forest directly between the two jagged peaks, he can barely see a small clearing lying to the West that is barely big enough to land a helicopter.
"His information about the location of the artifact was very accurate.  Call Marc and tell him to let the man go."
"Can do, boss," one man shrouded in a black suit says before rushing to the back of the helicopter to make the phone call where the boss will not be disturbed.
"Does this seem like a good place to start, boss?" the pilot of the helicopter says.
"Yes.  I can feel that it is nearby.  Drop down in that small clearing near the lake over there."
"Yes, sir."
The helicopter veers to the left, flying towards the clearing by the lake.  The unmarked aircraft flies directly over the small patch of grass before beginning its descent.
MildlyFrightenedBoy addresses his underlings.  "When we reach the ground, set up a camp.  Stay there unless I tell you to do otherwise.  I will set out alone to scout the area, then call you to come later.  I do not need any assistance; all of humanity is thousands of miles away.  If I call for you, you will show up as fast is humanly possible if you know what's good for you.  We will be spreading all along the mountainside and the adjacent forest in search for the artifact.  With luck, we will find the house of our rival, make them disappear, and be out of here in a week's time, if not sooner."
The crew nods as the helicopter reaches its destination.  MildlyFrightenedBoy watches as his team sets up camp before departing into the wilderness.


1: Walk into the forest.
2: Stumble on a mushroom.  Become infuriated that a lowly mushroom dare to trip up MildlyFrightenedBoy.  Shoot a total of nineteen bullets into the mushrooms along the path to the mountain before reaching the mountain and becoming weary after a long day's walk.
3: Sleep in a small cave on the side of the mountain after searching it thoroughly and finding the letter S scratched into a wall.

Is this how it works?

LOLOL NECROBUMPOPHILE I WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME AGAIN.

But if this page is too old, mind letting someone rut up another one?

Yes, MFB, that's how it works. It's a bit technical, so all you need to know is keep your powers constant and don't OP yourself.

I'm not as active as I'd want to be, so go ahead and start Special Powers Epic 3 if you want. However, it's best that you start fresh with a new thread. (I'll still be keeping an eye on things, though. )

Done, Z. Go ahead and lock this thread.
