"Oh, ok then...I guess. Thanks." Thermal just looks back up at the ceiling. He doesn't seem entirely reassured.

Cardbo Mon Jun 16, 2014 2:15 am

"I'm really sorry. I don't want to give a guarantee I'm not 100% sure of."

"Did you have any questions of your own?"

A1C Bronymous Mon Jun 16, 2014 3:42 am

"No, I'm just kinda tired... I think I'll just take a nap." He continues to stare at the ceiling, eyes wide open.

Cardbo Tue Jun 17, 2014 2:40 am

Storm shrugs and summons a cloud and tries to get some rest as well.

A1C Bronymous Tue Jun 17, 2014 10:47 pm

Storm lays down on the cloud and tries to fall asleep- and realizes he is absolutely not tired, not even a little. He feels like he wouldn't be able to fall asleep now if he was counting sheep with a glass of warm milk loaded with tranquilizers.

Cardbo Wed Jun 18, 2014 1:43 am

OOC:Idle hooves, idle hooves. Figure Storm could always work towards his destiny.

Storm remembers the coffee he drank earlier and ruefully gets back up off of the cloud. As he does he conjours a potion of immortality and places it in the chemical analyzer.

A1C Bronymous Wed Jun 18, 2014 2:19 am

The Chemical analyzer whirrs and beeps, and the display reads:

Immortality Potion
CHEMICALLY SIMILAR TO
Potion of Everlasting Life
Everbreath Potion
Eternity Dew
Elixir of Infinite Heartbeat
Miracle Water
Solar Wine
Cosmicia
Tears of the Mare in the Moon
Adrenaline
Formaldehyde

As a Doctor, you are familiar with Adrenaline and Formaldehyde. The rest sound like story book macguffins- in fact he exactly remembers the fairy tale he heard as a kid about the "Tears of the Mare in the Moon".

Storm takes down some notes.

Storm tries a different tactic and conjours up a Potion of Alicornization for Ponies and places that on the chemical analyzer and seeing what results he gets.

A1C Bronymous Wed Jun 18, 2014 9:56 pm

The machine does its thing again, this time coming up with a much more concise list.

Storm does not recall anything about Cerapter Serum, except that Cerapter is a rather uncommon Scientific synonym of Alicorn.

Storm decides to research the item "Cerapter Serum" when he gets the chance and makes a note about it. Remembering that he had wanted to do something about Koli's legs, or lack thereof, he conjours a Potion of Minature Owlicorn Body Modification in a low dosage formula, and places that in the chemical analyzer.

And again, the analyzer does what it does.

Poison Joke is known to occasionally transform ponies, or parts of ponies, so whatever is in it may be similar to what is in the Potion. Shapeshifter extract is probably the same, but Dittoreum isn't familiar. Polymorphic Solution sounds like a catch all potion of the same variety.

Assuming you're continuing, just combine your history checks with the other posts to save time. Also roll perception.

You are completely enthralled by your work, and you barely register the weak groan from Thermal. The display shows:

Resurrection Potion:
Lazerous Elixir
Elixir of Life
Necromantic Ether
Essence of Phoenix Ash
Phoenixborne Blood Potion

Again, they all seem terribly unfamiliar, but you can guess what each of them is supposed to do. As you think about it, you do recall reading about Necromantic Ether as a failed experiment of resurrection, only reviving the body.

"Thermal did you say something?"

A1C Bronymous Thu Jun 19, 2014 3:41 am

"Uh... there's a..." Suddenly, the chemical analyzer begins to levitate upwards. It vibrates, and then fractures, shattering to pieces. All around you, papers and lab equipment all begin floating as well, each shattering the same way. You turn to look at Thermal, and are surprised by a sharp pain in the back of your neck and sudden blindness. You now hear quite well a creaking, grinding, clicking noise, like some kind of terrible metal insect swarm. Your vision begins to clear, and you can blurrily make out Thermal, still strapped to the cloud, and no less than three foal sized masses moving around the two of you.

COMBAT START
The... things, whatever they are, circle you and Thermal lazily. One of them darts towards you, and you feel another sting on a foreleg. Just after that, another sting, on the flank, and both stings leave a buzzing sensation behind.

Your turn.

Storm grabs his notes and shoves them into his saddlebags. He then conjours the exit to be right next to himself and open pushing Thermal through before making to the exit himself.

You won't be able to do both on the same turn- if you push Thermal, then you still have a minor action and need to roll to save against Buzzing (two times, if not clear- and you'll need to roll a d6 if you don't save one or both of them).
