"Wes, you should use soothe wounds on the power node while Zuko
and I check this room."
I say pointing at the room behind me.
Oh and...
PAGEBREAK!!!

Alrighty, Imma assume Ilan would go along with the plan here.
-------------------------Turn 73-------------------------
Wes casts Soothe Wounds into the Power Node!
The spell was redirected back into Wes! Soothe Wounds was replaced with
Soothe Wounds S!
Use your righteousness to soothe the wounds of your comrades and increase the speed at which they move!
4 Turn Cooldown
The node crumbles into a pile of stones.
Meanwhile, Zuko and Razuna inspect the L-shaped room.
"Go on in first Zuko." Says Razuna.
"Yeah, I don't think so." Replies Zuko "Go on, you wanted to check it out."
"Yeah, but the meat shields go first." says Razuna.
"Why use a meat shield when you can have a metal one?" Wes says as he walks over to the two. "Well, let's get it done then!" Wes takes a step into the room.
Wes steps on a pressure plate! A bolt flies from nothing into Wes's Armor!
KA-CHINK
The bolts bounces off.
"Humph..." Wes says as he looks at the floor, which is absolutely LITERED with traps of any kind, tripwares to snares to pressure plates to light rays.
"Gourd, see if there is anything in this room, but be careful." Commands Razuna.
Gourd bursts from his shoulder and glides through the room. He comes back and lands onto Razuna's shoulder and chatters into his ear.
"There's another door." States Razuna.
--------------------------------Kairy----------------------------------
Putting your crossbow aside you reach into the cell and tap the women on the leg.
"Hey, can you hear me?" you ask quietly.
The Women emits a questioning groan and opens one hazel eye. She looks at you and breaths quietly. She slowly nods her head and closes her eye again.
She doesn't seem to have much energy, and her wrists are chained to the wall, forcing her to sit up-right. You abstain from throwing her the MREpper, considering she'd have no way to eat it and you can't feed it to her, what with her being behind bars in a tiny cell.
Feeling a chill up your spine you quickly turn around and look frantically about.
There's nothing.
You think to yourself that your nerves are getting the best of you.
--------------------------------Bazyli----------------------------------
Growling harshly you cast Heaven's Covenant! 3!
Angelic light pierces the veil of Null and bashes the Spyder!
The Spyder is now Weakened! It takes bonus damage from Demoni & Angelous MAGI and is slowed!
The Spyder Eggs Hatch! There's now a Baby Spyder Swarm beneath the mother, who is slowly making her way towards the spirit. The swarm surrounds you! 5!
you quickly leap above them and run clear, avoiding the wisps. One wisp floats by the swarm and evaporates twenty of them! The swarm is still going strong and is chasing you! The Giant Spyder is half-way towards the Spirit.

"Well... hm. Perhaps we should try the other room instead of going this way? Then again, treasure is usually heavily guarded, and all these traps provide a heavy guard indeed... Still, I'd say finding the others is more important than treasure hunting right now! So, what's our plan of action?"
"Well, I'm worried about Kairy, but I also like the treasure...! Uggghh! Damn you, temptation! Where to go...?"

seiromem, can I attempt to magically guess what's in the room behind that door?

You don't have any kind of clairvoyance skill, so no.
That would be a negative.
Razuna had a level of badass(not nearly enough) so he was able to do a roll, of course being 1 in 1000(0?). You have no clairvoyant magic at all, none of ya do.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, Clairvoyance can be considered a type of MAGI, and everyone has magic capability...
Hm, well, I'd say anyone who has a MAGI of at least 25 can casts something called
Polywrought! What that does is gives you a random spell once you cast it based on your roll. 1= injury, 2= Minor Injury 3= Nothing 4= 1/30 chance to learn new, random spell, 5= 1/15 chance for the same thing, and 6= 1/15 chance for new spell and you get an injury.
Risk reward for something as valuable as a spell, good idea? Or might it be too much of a benefit to learn a new skill?
I like it.
Of course, the only person who can cast that spell as of now is Bazyli.
And once you cast Polywrought, you forget it, only to learn it once more when you reach 40 Magi, same for 65 and 80 and so on.

Is there a way to upgrade my current badassery?
Badass moments:
1- I double-killed two ferals while having a wounded feet.
2- I took a boat without permission, not so badass but still cool.
3- I escaped from a cell and released a deadly horde of beasts, twice.
4- I dodge quills matrix-style.
5- I used a murkal as a living shield.
6- I jumped above the heads of a murkal horde.
7- I backstabbed an asshole.
8- And insulted a group of jerks.
And...and...there's probably something else but that's all I can think right now.

So far you have, what, one badass thing under your belt? I forget, count up your badassery moments and list them to me (edit yo post)
To upgrade, do more badass things.

6- I jumped above the heads of a murkal horde.
8- And insulted a group of jerks.
I see four! Very well, you have 4 BA Points!
You need 10 to get to the next level of Badassery.
I think I'll have to think a bit on how BA points and levels will work.
Allow me to brainstorm. I might not implement it in this game, but the next I probs will!

"Well... I think Kairy for now may be able to take care of herself, so why don't we try to avoid the traps and see what's in the other side of the room?"
"I know! Razuna is a thief! He could be able to do... something with the traps, to deactivate them, you know."
JJJ7 and seiromem, you guys are slightly very crazy. I like it.
(Though I don't think that Polywrought spell is a very good idea, since the chance to get something positive out of it is so incredibly small that it seems kind of pointless. I'd rather have a small but guaranteed reward. Plus, if someone actually gets the new skill, it'd be a bit of a balance breaker.)
Also, this is going right into my list of favourite quotes:
-------------------
This is not good. Guess I have to set priorities. I need to be sure I'm not in danger before I try to free that imprisoned woman. I whisper: "Don't panic. I'll be right back."
Then I sneak down the hall, my crossbow ready, and inspect it for anything suspicious or potentially dangerous. Only if everything is safe, I will return to the woman. Otherwise, I will try to escape and leave her behind.
I don't like this, but I can't risk getting ambushed while trying to help some random person.
Ugh, I really hate Kairy's character right now...

Should you find everything safe and return to the cell, what would you do?
Also, thanks for your thoughts on Polywrought. I'll save that later for a jester class or some shit. Oh, and thanks for the quote thing!
EDIT: But Technically Wes is saying that, not me...

Aw, you have make sure you're safe before you can save someone else! Bazyli would probably do the same. (Actually he'd probably get himself killed trying to save her but the goal is to... not die.)
Bazyli is already dead though so it might not be that bad.
Attempt to herd the spyder babbies into the flames!
I-I'm a herd dog now! Yeah...

No problem, amigo! Just make sure to keep saying quoteworthy stuff, okay?
If everything is safe, I return to the cell, try to pick the lock of the cell door and feed the woman an MREpper. Then I'll attempt to free her of the chains, provided she doesn't appear to be dangerous or mad. While doing this, I also make sure to glance down the hall every so often.

"Hm. Are you sure she'll be all right, Zuko? Kairy CAN take care of herself, I suppose, but...
Ah, COULD you deactivate all these traps, Razuna? If you could we could get over to that door with much less hassle. And danger. Who knows, maybe there's actually a way to wherever Kairy is past that door instead of treasure! Or perhaps Bazyli is past there, though I doubt that..."

Yeah, that's not out of the realm of possibility.
"Yeah I'm not that kind of thief."
"We should check the other room first, we can always check this one later."
"We should check the other room first, we can always check this one later."
"You know what, fuck this! I'm shooting Dark Fire at the center of the room! Luckily, that will activate all or most of the traps in the room, and then we will be able to cross the room. So get ready to cover yourselves! (And me, once I use the Dark Fire!) "
