Okay. As soon as the canister lands, look at it with such despise that it EXPLODES.

Its BLOWGUN fires a RED DART, striking the CANNIBAL APPRENTICE.

The APPRENTICE may or may not have acquired some sort of MADNESS.
Baphomet Wrote:Chuck the canister towards the gun and use leverkinesis on the trigger when it's in front of the barrel!A bit late for that, but you attempt to use your LEVERKINESIS ability on the CANNIBAL APPRENTICE's weapon while it's aimed somewhere other than toward you.

A FAILURE!
You seem to have accidentally opened a door behind the SAVAGES instead of firing the weapon. In retrospect, this is probably because the APPRENTICE's weapon has no apparent trigger.
You turn toward the final SAVAGE, on your right.

This one appears particularly nonthreatening, though it seems to be repeatedly muttering "Ooga booga booga!"

He can feel his ENTHUSIASM waning.

Nigel's Thornberry doesn't have enough Maneuver Juice remaining to activate the SPHERE O' FEAR maneuver, and has nowhere near enough ENTHUSIASM to properly initiate THORNOGRAPHY. Props would help too, and the thornberry has none.

The BERRY-PROOF CONTAINER fills with ETHYLENE.

The NONTHREATENING SAVAGE says something akin to "Oogly boogly boo!"

With an impressive leap and tackle you smack the SAVAGE against the wall.

It appears to have been knocked unconscious.
The hallway terminates in the door behind you. The corridor has two doors on either side, both currently standing open; one leads to the room in which you were strapped down, the other leads into somewhere dark and unexplored. The hallway turns a corner at the other end.
