carefully unearth sapling and transport it to your space suit, so as to have a traveling companion.

Also,

Name Sapling Nigel

You consider whether it is safe to leave your new friend in a place where NAKED BARBARIANS so freely roam. You decide that it is not, and proceed to painstakingly excavate the SAVAGE SAPLING.

It seems to have assimilated the remains of the GREEN-EYED MONSTER's digestive ROOT SYSTEM.

Despite the painful memories you have attached to that ROOT SYSTEM, you vow to put the past behind you and protect this little guy--Nigel--with all your heart.
You carry Nigel toward your downed SPACE VESSEL to retrieve your SPACE SUIT.

You peer inside the gaping hole in the FLEXIGLASS CANOPY.

In the dim light, you make out a puddle of NOXIOUS MERCURY separating you from your trusty SPACE SUIT.

Shoot around the space suit in hopes of having the blast blow it towards you.

You gingerly test the NOXIOUS MERCURY with your foot.

Suddenly, Nigel shifts his weight and you lose your footing!
[Image: DripChronicles64copy.jpg]
You have inadvertently splashed NOXIOUS MERCURY onto your face.

Your list of ACTION TRAITS has been expanded to include BLINDED.

You call out for Nigel's assistance. Nigel springs into action, activating his PHOTOSYNTHESIS Action Trait!

Odinod Wrote:>Use advantage of BLINDNESS to acquire LIMITED TELEKINESIS, moving the SPACE SUIT with your MIND.
Unfortunately, the BLINDED Action Trait in fact impairs your telekinetic powers. Nevertheless, you attempt to target the SPACE SUIT with your LEVERKINESIS Latent Ability.
[Image: DripChronicles66copy.jpg]
You definitely moved something! You're not sure what it was due to your BLINDED Action Trait, but in the past you have only been able to use LEVERKINESIS on levers.

That creaking sound is probably just the creaking of SPACE. You pay it no heed and enjoy the probable SUNSHINE, although this is somewhat difficult due to your BLINDED Action Trait.
[Image: Drip-Chronicles-69.gif]
Because Nigel's PHOTOSYNTHESIS Action Trait is active, he follows the sunlight. You can feel him shuffling away from your crashed SPACE SHIP.

You're not going to let your BLINDED Action Trait allow you to be separated from your only friend on this godless world. You get a lock on the sound of Nigel's rustling, and you don't walk; you roll.

Though crushed beneath the weight of your traitorous SPACE VESSEL, your first thought is for the Nigel's wellbeing. You cry out for Nigel! Is he alright? Can he hear you? You shed a single tear of DESPAIR.
[Image: DripChronicles72copy.jpg]
The tear washes away some of the NOXIOUS MERCURY, reducing the effectiveness of your BLINDED Action Trait by 50%. Through your mercury-poisoned eyes, you can see the FRIENDSHIP BULB has grotesquely detached from your friend, Nigel.

Nigel's PHOTOSYNTHESIS Action Trait deactivates due to lack of sunlight.

Nigel, Nigel... It seems like only yesterday that Nigel was a mere LEAFY APPENDAGE upon a horrible GREEN-EYED MONSTER. In fact, it was mere hours ago. And now, reduced to this: a bruised FRIENDSHIP BLOSSOM and a tangle of chlorophytic roots filled with ACID, trapped under an accursed and otherworldly SPACE VESSEL. You weep for the life that was cut so tragically short.

You attempt to physically free your trapped, vegetable comrade.
[Image: DripChronicles76copy.jpg]
It's no good! He's stuck in there tight. If only you had some way of increasing Nigel's turgidity.

RedMage Wrote:hmm.... this... INTIMATE skill seems interesting. Test it out on BLOSSOM APPENDAGE.
While it occurs to you that INTIMIDATE looks like a cross between the words INTIMATE and DATE, your INTIMIDATE skill actually involves assuming a threatening appearance.

You glower threateningly at the detached FRIENDSHIP BLOSSOM.
[Image: DripChronicles77copy.jpg]
The FRIENDSHIP BLOSSOM twitches slightly but seems otherwise unaffected. Perhaps you would be more threatening if you had your ZAP GUN.
