A Villain In A World Of Heroes

[X] Do that experimentation that we were going to do before we got jumped by those wolves.
-[X] Experiment near the edge of the forest.
--[X] How much force can we exert with our bolts?
--[X]Do we lose control of them when we stab something, or when we "let go" of it?
--[X]What activates it's freezing component?
--[X]Can we make two bolts parallel to each other and place wooden planks perpendicular to the bolts to make a flying raft thingy?
--[X] Can we grab the bolts without hurting ourselves (This is a valid thing because we have regeneration)?
--[X] Can we make them needle thin?
--[X] Can we make them really thick?
--[X]How much can we make them lift, or does touching something make us lose control over it?
--[X] How many can we control at one time?
-[X]How's our raw magical power coming along, now that we've eaten multiple magical creatures (I mean things like the wordless telekinesis. How much can we lift)?
-[X]Can our regeneration push things out of wounds?
--[X]Does our regeneration make us hungry when we use it, or are we hungry right now anyways?
-[X] Test advanced senses/body. Can we hear anything rustling around in the silent woods that we couldn't before?
--[X] How much physically stronger are we now? Try picking up rocks and stuff and throwing them as fast as we can to get a sense for the difference.
-[X]We could try manipulating the air to go away from an object to create a vacuum
--[X] Try seeing how hard or soft a wind we can create
--[X] Try seeing if we can make sounds
--[X] See if pushing wind through our fireball can make it bigger
--[X] See if we can compress air
---[X] See if we can ignite compressed air for an explosion
--[X] Try using air to push dust off the ground into the air so that our fireball creates an explosion
-[X]Try reaching through the unicorn horn to find our magic, i.e reaching inside the unicorn horn for magical power, like how we reached inside ourselves to find ours.
[X] Make sure to keep watch as you do this. Advanced senses only work if you use them, after all.
[X] Go to town

Yeah that was enough adventure for a while
We can't beat even low-level heroes. We aren't done.
so short of a 100 encounter roll or extreme stupidity
You mean a 1 encounter roll.

[X] Wander

we got lucky this time it's time to get back before we get ourselves killed
Considering Cedra's age and skills, she has been getting lucky with all of her encounters during the trial. Everything she has faced so far should have killed her. This was a low point for her, because she lost twice before finally winning, but that is something she will likely have to get used to in this world.

Fenric Wolf, Elk Lord, and Anzu should have been able to kill her without an issue. It was only thanks to dumb luck, and a pretty decent strategy1​ that she survived any of them.

The Black Unicorn probably could have killed her anytime it wanted while we under the influence of its aura.

The Mind-screwing pond we got lucky with avoiding the mind-control.

The Dire Wolves ripped off her arm, and if she hadn't been lucky with aiming her spell, would have gotten hurt further from the one she ignored.

1​Sweep the leg!

[X] Find somewhere safe to sleep
I'm not satisfied with the trial of blood yet, but there's no harm in taking a break.

We aren't hurt, just a bit tired. Nothing that fifteen minutes of sitting down won't fix (Actually, that applies to just about all physical exhaustion. It's physical damage that requires more resting time, and the brain's need to clean itself is why we take so darn long to sleep).

[X] Continue wandering
 
except that theres currently nothing to be regenerated

I could jave phrased that better but, how long do you to think we've been wandering? Even if we only spend one hour traveling between encounters I think lack of sleep could be an issue soon, escpecially with all the energtic fighting and stuff we've done.

We have had 3-4 encounters since we slept (depending on how you count the unicorn, since we sorta fell asleep during). So even if it's 3 hours each, we should be good for another encounter. And I think Dark Ness will tell us when we are getting tired, like he did last time.

AS far as I can tell, today has been:

Wake up, Pet pretty unicorn. (0 hours since sleeping)
Spend a few hours walking with pretty unicorn. (2 hours since)
Find and kill whitecorn. (2 hours since)
Wander for hour or two. (4 hours since)
Kill and eat Anzus. (4.5 hours since)
Wander back to pond. (6 hours since)
Pond is cursed, walk off. (7 hours since)
PLANTS, WHY DON'T YOU BURN!!!!! + Mindcontrol seeds (7.5 hours since)
Now. (7.5 hours since)

Now is not the time for sleeping. By my count, it's about midday.
 
We were completely revitalized after waking up with the unicorn horn and meat. We then wandered until we ran into the Anzu shortly after sunrise.

We wandered back with improved direction sense, so it would have been faster than getting to the Anzu.

We screwed around at the pond for a couple of minutes before leaving, and wandered off. We are about 3-4 hours (at walking speed) away from the pond right now.

It is approximately noon-afternoon timeframe I think.

When you come to, the white unicorn's body is gone and the black unicorn is standing in front of you. Barely any time seems to have passed, judging by the sky, and you no longer feel exhausted nor does your arm still sting. In fact, you feel better now then you have felt any time after your father's death. Quickly finishing your self anyalis, you then pay attention to the unicorn in front of you.
@Dark Ness This story post is not threadmarked.
 
[X] Train. You're starting to get halfway decent with your setup, but there is no way that it will be as good as if you had actually taken the time to come up with a battle style.
 
[X] Wander

We have made a lot of progress, but any hero could probably still stomp us into the ground. You say we may die if we continue this, but we are a villian, we are going to die anyway, and this is the best chance to acquire the power our revenge requires. We need to keep going.

Oh, yeah, we can do stuff that doesn't involve killing and eating things.

Can you think of any tests we can do with our new powers, and/or the Unicorn Horn?

Well, add it to the list.
 
Added, along with extra Dash-y thingies (-) to denote what experiment is part of what set of experiments (I.e sub-catagories for Aeromancy, Pyromancy, regeneration, and physical enhancements).

We will get our science if it kills us!
:Hail Science:
