[color=red]"System, monitor Health and Stamina. Full display."[/color] Asura said aloud, a hud would be nice. Or just a viewing without constantly having to check with the damn System. While he waited for that he started trying to metabolize the Poison working through him. He didn't necessarily have veins, nor real organs, so it stood that he [b]should[/b] be able to just digest the poison that was staining his gooey bile. As he played with that, and still trying to forcibly draw points out of skills he never put points into, he felt Mother Slime finally wallop him good. Which sent him bouncing and into a tree, probably for extra damage. But even still he didn't get a message about low hit points. Did his 'health bar' increase? Or were his defenses just that damn high at this point for mobs like M.S, and his group? Still, no reason to chance it. [color=red]"A Heal would be good Ardur, and maybe we should look for a water source. It seems I'm getting thirsty."[/color] He stated just before a crashing and rhythmic hurried footsteps came closer. [color=red]"Make that a sooner rather than later."[/color] He said as a bugbear burst from the foliage. It was yelling for everyone to get out of its way instead of just trying to kill them flat out? Strange. Asura purposefully got in his way, actually advancing, and tried to make himself stickier than he already was. When the Bugbear stepped in him he wrapped around the foot, up to the ankle, and tried to Cling as hard as he could to the ground. Holding onto each individual blade of grass, the dirt underneath, whatever his body could engulf to make the bugbear either STICK or TRIP.
