Chapter 9

Which route will you go?

Mental [Mind Control, Group, Tentacles, Corruption]

You select mental with an almost sinister tremor through you, feeling a sort of sharp splinter in the back of your head. It's time you show those adventurers who's boss, and there's no better time than now.

Everything goes white in an instant, a mess of sensations running over you and when it fades back to normal, you're as you always were. Nothing has changed.

...what? No! What a ripoff! You're stuck like this?! What kind of sick joke is this??!

Angrily you attempt to move, only to feel yourself wobble uncontrollably and as you try and turn, you catch a glimpse of them. A mass of ink-black appendages, each one coated in what look like fine grasping hairs, all eminating from you in a mass. The only part not covered seems to be your eye and as you try to move them, the tendrils throw out and pull you across the ground.

It's incredibly sleek and graceful, considering what it is, and with a little practice you pull yourself several feet at a time, casually moving over rocks and obstructions. Neat!

Containing yourself, you check your stats now.

Eye Fiend

Level: 10

Health: 33/33

Mana: 20/20

Physical Attack: 10

Ranged Attack: 0 (10)

Immunities: None

Resistances: None

Weaknesses: Light, Dark, Blind

Abilities -

Disarm [MP 5]: An Eye Fiend's stare has a 40% chance to inflict the Passive (no combat actions, unable to use chat actions) status on targets. Inflicting damage on a Passive target removes the debuff.

Ichor: An Eye Fiend's ranged attacks take the form of jets of fluid that do not inflict damage but instead spread Influence. When a target is 'damaged' for it's maximum health worth of Influence the target becomes a thrall of the eye fiend until the Influence is healed naturally or cured by spells.

Spells/Skills -

Corrupting Grasp: Grappling an opponent automatically converts all damage dealt to influence.

Sinister thoughts well inside you, images of adventurers held to your sway, legions of mindless followers at your beck and call, finally reigning supreme over those who once farmed you for loot...

Okay, maybe you need to check your ego before you go off the deep end. You need to test this before you actually go much further with it...

Where do you start?
