Finally got a post in. Nothing spectacular, but it makes my life a lot easier. Just think of it as a character-building experience for Narp.

Jumped down a well? Well, I suppose it is a little safer being overcrowded in a place you can drown than fighting a big bug, but still....

Anyway, if Narp throws a dagger or shoots an arrow or whatever at the psi, she'll either be distracted by the rocks Jack is dropping at her and get hit by the knife/arrow/whatever or she'll be distracted diverting the knife/arrow/whatever and will get hit by the rocks Jack is dropping on her instead. Then, Jack will be free to try the same technique on the bug, who isn't a skilled telekenetic, and should fall much faster.

No, the goal is to wash off the remnants of the damping powder, since burning it off wasn't working too well. The pump would also have worked, but the well is a tad safer and quicker.

That makes sense. I wonder where Narf is?

i don't post on sunday.

i think i detected a problem. Jack, you and the psi are teleport 50 large rocks and 'each of which gets teleported and telekenetically thrown a few times per second.' a few means three at least i think so, so that's a large rock every 6.6 milliseconds. i think 5 rocks a second might be more resonable. 200 milliseconds is straining the normal human bounds of reflexes, but people always get faster in combat condition's. even an automated process would have to find a sutable rock then cast the teleport spell at the rock. second, 150 rocks a second, the room would be full of rocks, given a rock size of a foot^3 and a room size of 40^3, in 13.3 seconds. so she has to be teleporting them away.
