"I- I think she'll be fine." I said, ignoring my gut again. "She'll only be gone for five turns so it shouldn't be that bad, right?"
Everyone looked at each other and we all consecutively agreed to continue. The next one to go was Thomas, so we all watched as he nervously took the dice and shook them. After letting go, they landed on a 3 and a 4. "Seven, just like Brandon's."
We watched as his piece moved next to mine and the top card in the deck turned orange and loosened. He took the card and we listened to what it said.
ANIMAL SPACE
Body Parts: Ears, Tail, Nose
Animal: Otter
Otter +3
We all waited for what was to come next as Thomas winced in pain and took his onesie off. In nothing but a t-shirt and boxer shorts, we watched as a tail started sprouting from his posterior, as it got longer and longer, the skin eventually getting darker as a short covering of brown fur sprouted all on it. Still watching, we watched his ears shift upwards as they started restructuring themselves, becoming rounder and growing the same colored fur as the tail. Eventually, all that was left was his nose, and we watched as it blackened and flattened out, as the skin got rubbery and soft, a soft glistening of wetness shining off the black nose.
As Thomas' pain subsided, he sighed and looked behind him at his new tail. "Well, I guess I could get used to this."
We all stared in amazement at his new features, before Hank asked, "Ok, so what exactly determines the harshness of the transformation anyways? I mean, Brandon only grew antlers and new ears, but Thomas grew a tail as well as ears and his nose, and Josh became, well, a full goddamn orc! Is it just random?"
We all pondered his question for a moment, before Gina said, "Well maybe it has to do with resistance."
"But we all start out at 100%, right?" I asked, confused.
"No, no, not the number, but the personal resistance of each person." Gina offered. "Thomas and Brandon were more hesitant, so they barely changed, but Josh was all for the game and he became a full blown Orc."
We all nodded in agreement to her hypothesis and moved on. We looked at both Amber and Thomas' character sheets and read:

It was Gina's turn now. The small girl took the dice in her hands and rolled...
