Both heads down, a two-headed abhorrence charges into you, knocking you to the
ground.
5731h, 1842m, 4210e, 10p elrxkp-
You must have two legs to do that.
You stand up and stretch your arms out wide.
5731h, 1842m, 4210e, 10p elrxk-
You must have two legs to do that.
You grab a two-headed abhorrence by the back of the neck and pull him forward
into an embrace. You press your lips against his neck and hungrily suck the
lifeforce from him.
You have scored a CRITICAL hit!
As the last dregs of lifeforce are sucked out of a two-headed abhorrence, his
eyes become glassy and cold, staring off into the empty darkness of death.
You have slain a two-headed abhorrence.

My arms were broken as well.

I've had that happen, as well, when killing sharks. Torn up and broken legs, but could still circle.

Huuuh? You can't moonburst with broken limbs (because you're shooting stuff out of your palm), but you can grab someone close to you and nightkiss them?

This reminds me of a question I wanted to ask. This happened not too long ago and I was confused. I thought that enfeeble would disable someone's arms so that they couldn't fling tarot but...

Your action causes the nearly invisible magical shield around you to fade away.
Tapping into the entropic fields of the cosmos, you bring forth a ray of
negative energy that attaches onto Deangelo, draining away his strength and
making him wither before your eyes.

Deangelo's aura of weapons rebounding disappears.
Deangelo whispers your name under his breath as he chants, and you suddenly
feel drained and muddled.

Deangelo takes a long drag off his pipe.

Deangelo takes a drink from a sapphire vial.

Deangelo shuffles some cards with the image of the Hanged Man out of his deck.
2612h, 1339m, 2816e, 3p, 11940en, 16969w x-
Deangelo hurls a tarot card with the image of the Hanged Man on it at you. As
it reaches you, a huge mass of rope bursts out of it, entrapping and hindering
you.

Is that right?

P.S. - That mana sap sure isn't a bit on the excessive side at all either tongue.gif

Didnt enfeeble lower target strength ?
Anarias2005-07-20 16:49:08
Bah, I ought to not just assume that Lusternia:enfeeble equals Achaean:enfeeble.

I was wondering why when I was testing severed arms with Shinza I could apparently still attack when missing a whole arm. Not only that...

You begin to wield a glittering seraphic tower shield in your left hand.
3792h, 3486m, 4026e, 10p, 19030en, 18277w exk-
You are:
without a left arm.
an insomniac.
3800h, 4026m, 4026e, 10p, 19030en, 18247w xk-

Fairly obvious that lost/broken/damaged limbs were changed around when severing came into effect and are currently bugged in a few ways. You got a different message than usual Thorgal, instead of your legsmust be functional, it said you must have two legs. Confusing breaks with severed. *shrugs* I imagine it'll get fixed pretty soon.

silimaur2005-07-20 20:34:34

Olan2005-07-20 20:38:06
