Not necessarily; you could have D finish the scrying, Jack teleport everyone, describe the room, and then have everyone hear a roar coming from behind them. The post could be ended there, leaving the next person to post (Probably Krsqk - I'm going to bed after this) to describe the critter.

Okay - now I'm going to bed. THis is the Last post for a while. Honest. Really. I'm going to bed now. See? I won't even hit the "add reply" button down there. No. I won't. You'll see.

Oh, I just can't resist....

Oh, great. How come I have to hit the woman? I don't want to hit the woman. This is probably just a big misunderstanding. And I'm sure her little pet is really nice once you get to know him. Or he gets to know you. Kinda one of those beautiful from the inside out things--once you're inside his belly, you'll see he's not all that bad.

Fine. Since you leave me the hard part, I'll just make things a little more interesting.

There. That should keep us tied up for a little while. I'm assuming that the bandits are headquartered there--if not, we may have other problems later.

Have fun!

Just posted.

Notes:
Some of the damping flour would have become ground into the cloth in the room (and about the only cloth left in the room is that which people are wearing); John, Arthur, and D still have some cleaning up to do before they can cast unencumbered by the dust, although the lion's share of the flour is now in John's workroom.

The spell Jack used to clear the room is the same one he used to retrieve John's ring, minus most of the shielding that keeps such things from happening. The spell making and maintaining the hole was safe inside Jack's shield, and everything was whipped around into the hole in space.

Hope nobody lost their amulet....

As for the charge in the capacitor - it wasn't a full charge, which is why Jack didn't clear the entire room that way; it was, however, enough to clear Jack of the flour.

A thought on psionic powers: most of them would be highly individualized, as they are based more on innate ability than training. I would suggest assigning characteristics of them to individual characters rather than as a blanket on types.

A thought on damping dust: It couldn't be enchanted to hang in the air longer; attempting to enchant it would infuse the dust with magical energy, which it neutralizes. It could be chemically bound to a different material, however, to the same effect.

It figures the bug is a coward. I tried to tell you all that it was a nice pet, but did anyone listen? No! No one ever listens to me!



Narf, you're next. Jack, why do Arthur, John, and D still have to clean up, but Narp doesn't?

Oh, and anything in the puddle from the keg is also likely to be contaminated with the dust.
