Ok, who is the MAD GM around here?!?! 04/05/2018 05:24 PM CDT
I'd like to know who, personally, to thank for this little bit of deviltry.

>l
[The Rift, Scatter]
Grizzly animal skeletons in polished silver cages moan in pain along a narrow corridor. Tiles of slippery ice compose the floor, with small spikes rising out from several of them. You notice a mass of undulating liquified rock, a steel lockpick and a crystal-set smooth ironwood scepter.
Obvious paths: east, southwest
>kick scept
The undulating liquified rock hurls a tendril of slagged rock towards you.
It falls short, but suddenly you can feel heat beginning to build underneath your feet.
Icy stalagmites burst from the ground beneath you!
[SMR result: 29 (Open d100: 11)]
You dodge out of the way!
>
You kick the smooth ironwood scepter and it instantly breaks apart and decays.
>
The ground beneath you suddenly calms.


Oh, and friendly warning to you all - this might get nasty in the Scatter, now.

Unrelated to the kicking of the scepter if that is what you mean?

Indeed, the sceptre had nothing to do with it - that's just a show in timing.

I've never seen (to this moment) the molten lava actually 'cast' the Earthen Fury spell effect. Hence the bold part.

Usually it's just a molten glob that strikes you, or not. This. . . this could be much more serious.

It began happening when sman2.0 came out.

Ok, so the question may be over 6 months old. . . (truly the first time I had ever seen it)

I still wanna know who. And I hope no one gets tagged by it.

>>>I still wanna know who.

It wasn't me. I keep my crazy to the Queen and her shenanigans in town.

But I wish it was me because I adore death and destruction.
