The worst streak of bad luck ever

Was hunting 5, fogged down to 1 and was trying to find the door....

The black void expands and contracts, pulsing violently!


The black void continues to suck the air out of the area!

Air is sucked away from a naisirc!
... 30 points of damage!
Air is sucked away from a csetairi!
... 25 points of damage!
Veins in hand burst!

Bones in arm crack and blood vessels burst!
You are stunned for 3 rounds!
A naisirc glows with an eerie green light.

(unstun, start walking away. Make it one room over....)

The air begins to thin rapidly.

Air is sucked away from a naisirc!
... 20 points of damage!
Air is sucked away from you!
... 9 points of damage!
Chest swells, breaking ribs!
You are stunned for 1 round!

Suddenly you feel sick and queasy, and your world seems blurry and indistinct. You fight an intense vertigo for a moment before the sensation leaves you. You regain your senses, blink once and look around.


[The Rift]
Your wandering brings you to a small clearing. The ground is dry and parched, and there are large lines scratched into the surface and coated in a red, sticky substance. Following the lines a moment, you realize they make a rune covered circle, and that you are standing in the center of it. A cold wind whips around you at that point, and you hear howls in the distance. You also see a swirling black void.
Obvious paths: east, west, northwest, southeast.

Roundtime: 5 sec.

Your disk arrives, following you dutifully.

(unstun again and instantly...)

The black void whirls around violently tossing debris everywhere!


The black void has sucked all air out of the area!

... 19 points of damage!

You are stunned for 3 rounds!

(again, right after I unstun...)

The black void twists and bends the light around it, sucking it away into nothingness!


The void sucks all the air up around it then pushes out the air with tremendous force!

Air slams into a caedera.
... 25 points of damage!
Air slams into you!
... 14 points of damage!
Good blow to your left arm!
You are stunned for 2 rounds!
>
The air around you crackles with potent energy!

You feel the magic alien to you slipping away...

A caedera tries to ensnare you!
AS: +624 vs DS: +486 with AvD: +25 + d100 roll: +81 = +244
... and hits for 43 points of damage!
Grapple to the back crushes several useful bones!
You are knocked to the ground!


(unstun, fog to another part, eat some herbs, walk some more to find the door...)

You begin to walk southeast but trip over something and end up stumbling your way there.


[The Rift]
Gargoyles hover above a huge, dark pit in the ground a small distance off. They occasionally swoop into it, then shoot out on a burst of air, screaming with excitement. All manner of bugs and small creatures swarm around the lip of the hole, the thick ring oozing slowly outward from its point of origin. You also see a Vvrael witch.
Obvious exits: northwest, southwest.
>stumble southwest
stumble southeast
A Vvrael witch swings a midnight black morning star at you!
AS: +555 vs DS: +531 with AvD: +33 + d100 roll: +76 = +133
... and hits for 33 points of damage!
Damaging strike to chest, several ribs shattered!
You are stunned for 5 rounds!
You are still stunned.

Your disk arrives, following you dutifully.
The layer of protection fades away.

A Vvrael witch whispers with an ominously soft voice.

A Vvrael witch gestures gracefully, hurling ebon motes of anti-mana at you!

>A Vvrael witch suddenly pulls herself up into a rigid stance, stopping all movement and sound while her dark eyes survey the surroundings with their deep iris pools framed by long lashes. She bursts into an ironic laugh, sending sizzling bolts of anti-mana out from her raised fingertips!
A Vvrael witch hurls a powerful lightning bolt at you!
AS: +530 vs DS: +270 with AvD: +50 + d100 roll: +92 = +402
... and hits for 366 points of damage!
Horrifying bolt of electricity turns chest into a smoking pulp of flesh. No life faleft there.
