Snake Report: Day Seven
A spider tried to eat me today. It was absolutely terrifying.
Every time I think I've rationalized how this world works, I find myself ignorant. The creatures in this cave are more than just living things- they're monsters. Legitimate monsters that defy the known laws of my previous reality.
But, I have good news to report as well. Perhaps this could already be guessed, as I'm not dead.
Hisssss...
The good news is: Spiders hate fire quite a bit.
As in, fire kills them.
Really, really kills them.
Spider, spider webs, spider egg sacks: The whole nine yards. All are extremely flammable.
Category 1 Flammable-Solid. "Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and hot surfaces. No smoking."
Yes, all of those statements are relevant, and OSHA approved.
I'll take on the personal responsibility for this misadventure. When trying to gobble down a few more mushrooms from Frog's Pillar I put myself a bit to far out into the open. Apparently I look like a tasty morsel to a hunting spider. It cleared the distance between us before I even knew it was on approach. Instinct can take the credit for this round of survival: Human-side was in full shock and terror, but Snake-instinct fought against the terror and managed to barf up a pitiful excuse for [Fire-breath] along with half a toasted mushroom.
Pitiful, but effective.
The spider ran off an eight-legged BBQ, before curling up and dying with a smolder of defeat.
[Fire Breath] is now rank III, just like that.
[LEVEL UP:]
[Current: Level Six]
If spiders still didn't terrify the ever-living shit out of me, I think this would probably be the start of a grinding montage. They do though.
They really do.
I'm sticking with glowing blue mushrooms for now.

Universe Online
(Thank you Drakannon for the Cover Art!) My name is Allec Renn, and I was born with ALS. For those of you who don't know what that is, it stands for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. It basically means that I lost the ability to control my muscles. Its just like Lou Gehrig and Stephen Hawking. By the time I was 6 years old, I was living in a hospital, and from there things progressively got worse. I cannot walk, talk, eat or even go to the bathroom by myself. But there is one thing I can do. Playing games. The advent of Virtual Reality during my early teens greatly alleviated my problems. In the games I can be who I want, what I want. A mighty warrior, a powerful spellcaster, the charming rogue. The crafter. The builder. All sorts of games have come and gone over the years, rising and falling with each advance in VR technology and the ever-increasing power of the Artificial Intelligence's that control them. But now a new actor has taken to the stage. Solar Dynamics, Inc. has unveiled not only the first fully immersive 'deep' Dive Pod, but their flagship game puts all other VR games to shame. Universe Online. No longer are players stuck on a single large world to explore. No longer is there a limit to what you can do, what you can be. Fly spaceships across the universe, conquer planets, create custom technology. Mine, Build, Destroy. Explore. Rule. Do you have what it takes the control the Universe? I'm going to do my best to find out! -NOTE: This story is MATURE, and such has graphic fight scenes, blood and gore. Also cursing. Quite a bit of that in some cases. Sex may also be involved. -NOTE: Like my other story, UO is a work in progress. The storyline, characters, and other things are still in the drafting stages. Also, excuse my spelling and grammar errors!
