Re: Mentat's Magic
"Okay, you are all prisoners. Got that part. You are apparently a pirate, and she is a fairy. Judging from the presence of the troll and the mantis man, a Nantuko I believe, I'd say our 'master' is a green mage with a side in red, maybe black and red with you around, if my surprising fairy ally has sized you up without prejudice." This last I say to the man with the hook hand.
I look at Carmine. "I think we are in a game. Don't ask why I think that, it's just that somehow, everything is adding up to that. It's an intuitive conculsion, not one founded in reasoning, but it makes sense so far. I need to test something. Nobody interrupt me, because I might be able to get us out of here."
I move towards the edge of the field, look at the mage, and wait for his next spell. When he casts it, I'm going to try and think of the open fields, the vision of open skies and golden grasses, of green rolling meadows and land meant for living off of.
In short, I'm going to try to draw White Mana, using the novelizations I've read as my blueprint of technique. This will set up whether this is the setting I think it is, or not. If so, I know how I will use it, or at least I think I do. If not, well, I'm going to feel like an idiot, but at least I'll have done something.
OOC: Of course, this could easily be Heroscape, or any number of competitive games I've played.
