Forum Curses: The Second Act

Ray? Ladnas? Just putting it out there, should we go to Convoy 2 when we’re done here with Convoy 5

How did you even kill 36.2 people? One of them lost an arm of what?

A foot

But close enough

Fair enought

Lmao portals

Imagine you were having a nice day, fighting some cultists, when all of a sudden, you were all kidnapped into some magic portals and sent to different corners of North Guapo to fight against minions of a magical god horse, remnant of a dead species of omnipotent gods who caused unimaginable destruction in the universe over trillions upon trillions of years.

Fun fact: you’re all screwed

Instructions:
Five new bosses have appeared at different locations in North Guapo. They are significantly weaker than The Horse but have been designed to exploit your weaknesses and or nullify your strengths (Moreso the latter).
Some people have still been left fighting the Cultists. Your friends are in danger.

You cannot help them all, so you must choose who you are going to join - if you’re fine with leaving the Cultists to wreak havoc for now - and potentially save their life, these bosses will be posted shortly.

Strategy Fight
β€” Mission: Save Your Friends β€”
Strategy fights work differently. Instead of polls, you fight by saying what action you will take. You can optionally roll a d20 in addition to determine the success of an action.
I can reject any actions.
Win by choosing the right actions.

Rebecca and Jordan fell down a small cliff, suddenly thrown into this new environment. Above them, stood a blindfolded figure laden with belts, vials and various instruments. Around its dull face wrapped the black band, concealing the depths of its eyes.

Steven blinked, he was suddenly much further away than he previously expected. Northwards, somewhere in the highlands of Scotland. Snow was thick here in the winter weather. A large thing towered above him, creating a sphere of unbearable cold. He tried to summon the blue flames. Nothing.
