h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

[Ecg Unagi]: "Miss Elwyn, it isn't cheating,- creatures like orcs (and , yes-also demons)... have teeth and claws that not everybody else has,- and they are more than likely to not be willing to hold back against tearing into folks with those (if all else fails)..."
the last gollum shatters, quite nicely.
"I can only make five,- I bet some one like Jake or Halimar might be able to do like 8 or 12,- eventually..."
~Shields? What mean you?~

*looks over at her curiously*

[Ecg]: "They can mirror you as helpers,... I don't know about the shields thing though... you probably theoretically could make one out of an element,- I wouldn't know though about how, why or what for, just quite."

*Gotta learn to get more skills ... in *

*blushes* I know but...

Can you teach me how to make a gollem? I think I have an idea for a shield from a gollem that could shatter in one direction when hit, foward at the same time and a defensive weapon

[Ecg]: ~I'll show you... you just think of a shape and, first few times, just trace it out with say, like maybe a stick? Then it'll be where you can with just tapping the ground, and then, just "thinking."~
*shrugs, then attempts to demonstrate*

"Also, demons aren't necessarily more willing to bite folks than any other sort of fanged creature... scary though, yes-I agree. Well, at least, ...I won't."

*cannot speak of/for the other fanged s and so doesn't*
"Lady Shaylar says you channel a tiny bit of your "life force" into the form,... I guess it were to be, as though it were... a miniscule vessel? You might want to ask her... I'm not even too sure what she had meant exactly by that,- yet, it worked (when she did it)."

[Ecg]: "Granted,- it does help that I already knew how to make a homunculus (small gollum), before that."
*shows it to her again.*
"Now you try, yes?"

[Ecg]: "Don't worry though, I've found they tend to be lots more obedient than a homunculus..."
*makes a homunculus, to show her the difference*

*Has the gollum pick a flower and hand it to her.*

*The homunculus tries to trip it on the way, so Ecg has to dissipate it*

*quietly, so he might only just be heard by anyone listening*

[half to Avatar half to himself] ....your parents were killed by drow.... mostly dark elves keep to themselves.... unlesss, well....

*Ezekiel blinks and turns to Ecg playing with the gollum. He half turns back to Tom and smiles faintly, then waves a hand in Ecg's direction so that he seems to vanish into the background*

...although doing it on a whole army of people might make them slightly visible... like an odd blur.... depends how much sense you credit Orcs with...

*he waves a hand again to reveal Ecg who is completely unaware anything has happened, then concentrates and moves his hand to change Ecgs appearance slowly to that of an Orc, he winces then lets his hand drop so Ecg changes back again*

....though I have no idea how long i can hold this up for, nor on how many people.... particularly the last one....

*he stands back and glances at Avatar again in agitation*

*Alanna walks up and stops in surprise at the sight of broken gollem pieces, mages sparring and the general scene that confonts her*

<< >>

*Avatar evades Jake's katana and takes a few steps back.*

You're pretty good, lad, I'll give you that. Do you want to try and up the ante?

[Ecg Unagi]: *Stops sulking*

Indeed? *is distracted by the sight of the gollum with the flower*

Life force... well I still can't control my magic yet, it doesn't sound like very easy to know how much of oneself to pour into the vessel

[Ecg Unagi]: "I bet Jake could show you how. Lady Shaylar could do it real easily, but that's probably 'cuz of her rank."
*shrugs*

[Ecg Unagi]: ~You can make other people look like they are shapeshifting too Ezek? That's amazing,- well to me it is anyway...~

Hm Jake looks busy at the moment.

Lady Shayler's skilled *agrees*

[Ecg Unagi]: "I keep wondering if there is any way I can convince her I'm worth teaching how to do some things (I don't know yet)... more magic, that is..."

She'll be quite happy to teach any who will learn in her free time.

[Ecg Unagi]: ~Anyone except me... with my lunk headedness,- and my thick-.~
*Smiles a bit anyway.*

[Ecg Unagi]: "I wonder if we can head out for Kalsho, Ye-e-et?"
