[QUOTE="jkason, post: 5196734, member: 2710"] [b]Shaimon Hu'u, druidic human ranger[/b] Shaken out of his reverie by the air mephit's enjoinder, Shai tries to pry his way out of the rubble. He finds his legs pinned, though as yet uncrushed. He pushes at the large rock, precariously-balanced as it is, but to no avail. His breath quickens, eyes growing slightly bloodshot, as he tries to call upon the rage-fueled strength he's known for so long, but nothing comes, and he falls back, exhausted. Dyspeer, meanwhile, manages to wriggle his way free, shaking his whole body after, momentarily engulfed in the cloud of granite dust he throws off. The wolf picks his way through the rubble to lick Shai's face even as he reaches the point of exhaustion. The large man smiles, patting the wolf on the head, then nods, as if they've just had a conversation. Then, without warning, he stiffens, convulsing, mouth opening wide, wider than his jaws should allow, as if they're hinged. And out from the opening crawls a large python, working its way out as the man's skin pales and shrivels. When it's finally escaped the body, there is nothing left but a translucent skin of the man, which is already wasting into nothing. Dyspeer sits, cocking his head to one side to study the large, coiled snake. Then, with the briefest hiss, the snake's head lolls, eyes glazing. A hand comes out from its center, and as the reptilian coil swells and shudders, Shai climbs out from the center as if exiting a hole. Then the snake, like Shai's body before it, pales, withers, and dissipates. Dyspeer moves to Shai's side, licking his hand. Shai roughs up the fur on his wolf's head, then looks around to see if anyone else needs help freeing themselves from the rubble. [/QUOTE]
