[QUOTE="BoldItalic, post: 7329718, member: 6777052"] Taking its time, it transformed into………………….. Taking its time, it transformed into………………….. It's not good, I can't even type what it turned into. My keyboard freezes in terror at he very thought of it. Suffice it say that it was very, very [i]horrid[/i]. "Little girl," it said in a terrible deep voice that dripped with menace, "Come here ..." "NO!" shouted Bigby silently, frantically waving her arms. Then she did what you must never, ever, do - she turned her back on it. She ran to Jeli and pinched the back of Jeli's arm to make her pay attention. Alas, she forgot that she was wearing false fingernails and scratched Jeli's arm so that a tiny trickle of blood throbbed up. "Ouch!" thought Jeli, "What did you do that for?" Well, of course, [i]Turn Living[/i] ends if the turned creature takes damage and a scatch on the arm is quite sufficient. Jeli spun round to face her foe and hurled a dagger with uncanny accuracy at his collar button, causing his costume to fall off again and exposing him for what he was: a mere actor from a touring company, just like his two friends. "Is this a dagger I see before me?" he declaimed, adopting a theatrical pose. "Toby or not Toby?" responded the clown, "That is the question." "Woo-ooo-ooo." said the man in the sheet. "I am the ghost of Christmas Presents." "Can I stop taking the [i]Dodge[/i] action now?" asked Herewulf, "Only I'm getting cramp." "Excuse me," interrupted Dotti, "Oi'm not in the mood for theatricals. You can all just b***** off." "Well!" huffed Toby the clown, "The things I suffer for my art! Come, let us away ere the cock crow!" [b]Exit, pursued by a bear.[/b] "Now you've offended him," protested the ghost. "You're nothing but a bunch of Philistines!" "Oh, I don't know," countered his friend, "Their toy crocodile is very realistic. We could do that scene from Anthony and Cleopatra -" [INDENT]"What manner o' thing is your crocodile?" "It is shaped, sir, like itself; and it is as broad as it hath breadth: it is just so high as it is, and moves with its own organs: it lives by that which nourisheth it; and the elements once out of it, it transmigrates."[/INDENT] "This is insane!" shouted Od. "We're trying to have a serious adventure here!" Everyone turned and stared at Od. The hairs on the back of his neck began to prickle. His ears felt suddenly hot. He wavered. Something was wrong. Something was [i]very[/i] wrong. For a moment, he was back in his room in the Pig and Lion with a strong feeling that he was about to wake up. But he didn't wake up. This wasn't a crazy dream. There really was a kraken with fifty tons of gold. There really was a ship called the Phase Rider. He really was in an underground temple accompanied by an elf, a sorcerer, a paladin, a talking crocodile who played football and a gaggle of females of various ages who were sometimes mermaids and sometimes not and sometimes rode unicorns that were sometimes narwhals. Od did what anyone would do in such circumstances. He curled up into a ball and went catatonic. [/QUOTE]
