I try to sense the mind of the beetle.
If it has a mind, I try to make it sleep using a charm spell on it, trying to make the creature let me pass.
Else I keep my distance from the beetle, and cast Fire Element Bond using my Staff of Elements.
A bright, red string of red flys from the head of the staff and directly tied onto the beetle's leg.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Right as I'm about to hit the Acolyte, I leap into the air as Xor explodes the Acolyte's bike helmet. I then fall from the sky and bash the Acolyte's head in (with mine, of course)
Tarhalindur: What’s going on? I’m detecting a portal opening. Makadon: Oh no. [VRRRRRRWWWWWOOOOOOOSSSSHHHH!]
???: You don’t just lock your secrets away, heheh. I’m Delph, and I’m about to make all your dreams come true.
...
...
...
Because you’ll be in heaven. Action (Tarhalindur)
Tarhalindur quickly pulls out a portal gun and teleports Delph away.
“Phew. That was a close one. Oh, by the way, Acolyte, remember this?”
He quickly slaps a top hat on the Acolyte.
“THE HEIGHT OF FASHION.”
He pushes the detonator.
Artheus, seeing as most people are attacking, takes a Viking Helmet, ensharpens the horns and puts it on top of a pole.
Then he uses the . . . Polehat? To strike the Acolyte, preferably in the legs, so it will be crippled and weaker to consequent attacks.
The Acolyte, annoyed with how many helmets he's being attacked with, responds to the Polehat assault by shielding himself with an oversized newsboy cap!

You daze the beetle for a moment- it seems like its mind isn't like that of humanoids enough to sedate it instantly with this kind of magic.
If you decide to run past it, you'll have a good chance of doing so without retaliation, in the off chance it catches you, you'll have the opportunity to strike first.

Its quite simple now, the Acolyte has left himself vulnerable to toasters! I pour water all over the Acolyte, and summon a dozen toasters to electrocute him to death
Nicol Bolas:24/25
I take out a blender and inspect the label. "hmm "ACME blender: 90% more blend""
"little bit of duplication should make this interesting"
I use a duplication glitch to produce thousands of blenders which fly on towards the Acolyte in a tornado of spinning blades and plastic. The tornado accelerates, heating up the air around it into a ball of pulsing plasma because of its sheer speed. the blades rip at the Acolyte severely damaging him and seering his exposed skin.
Jeez, things are really starting to slow down... I wouldn't have time to post tonight anyways, since I have a Physics test coming up and I need to study.
Thankfully, I've gotten some art done, and I've conquered the worst of my cold/sore throat.
Post is coming Friday. What would make you guys more active?
In the ovens, I place delicious cookies which are completely harmless. I eat them when they fall out the ovens, and the Acolyte becomes sad because he didn't get the cookies.

Unfortunately, these toasters were all recently made! They all have safety fuses attached to them, which save the Acolyte drop a dangerous electric shock.

The Acolyte prefers brownies to cookies! He even made his own recipe- but judging by who he is, you might not want to check the list of ingredients.

I cause the worm to throw the arena around, then I divide the Acolyte by 0. Xor then comes from behind and moves at an incredibly fast speed, which, according to the theory of relativity, makes time around him slow down. Xor uses this extra time to pour lots of hydrogen peroxide on the Acolyte, and then covers himself in acetone and pineapple juice, heats himself to 1000 degrees CELSIUS, and throws himself on the Acolyte, resulting in an explosion.
Yeah, I want to give you guys a heads up- is anything on my end keeping you guys from posting? Is it fatigue? Do you guys want the next segment sometime soon?
It's a lack of buffer between posts, is all. I'll kill the Acolyte right here if I have to.
While the Acolyte waits for other people to attack, I crush him with a brick of osmium, the densest element of the periodic table. I then proceed to TWO BRICKS. Osmium has 76 protons and 76 neutrons. It is generally found in platinum alloys, but THREE BRICKS.

After approximately 1,000,000 attempts, the Acolyte manages to clear the 8-4 underwater area and goes to the axe to complete the run...
But suddenly... BOWSER GIVES AN IMPOSSIBLE HAMMER PATTERN.

Today happens to be my birthday! I feel like I should do something for the occasion, but I'm not sure.
Is membership dropping? Hmm... I'll probably finish this latest act up soon to see if I could stop this fatigue. Let's hope my art and my life can keep up...
Would you guys rather have updates sooner or later than after a week?
