			For those curious how the parasite messaging would look.

			load my bow with my crys<br>
			You hold the ayanad crystal aloft near your indigo bow. Suddenly, a collection of indigo tentacles lash out grabbing hold of the ayanad crystal. Rows of teeth form a maw along the surface of the tentacles as they consume the ayanad crystal. The tentacles writhe wildly in response as they seem to ooze with power. A gurgling, coarse voice whispers, "Consume... feed... destroy!"


			You nock an arrow in your indigo bow.<br>
			As you fire your indigo bow, indigo tentacles jump from the bow and onto the arrow!<br>
			You fire an arrow at an Ithzir adept!<br>
			AS: +400 vs DS: +262 with AvD: +25 + d100 roll: +52 = +215<br>
			... and hit for 55 points of damage!<br>
			Slash across back of hand, tendons sliced!<br>
			The Ithzir adept is stunned!<br>
			You wince as the indigo bow draws upon your blood as it strikes.<br>
			'''A slender indigo and black tendril lashes out from an arrow and slashes an Ithzir adept's right hand!'''<br>
			... 20 points of damage!<br>
			Strong slash to the Ithzir adept's right hand cuts deep.<br>
			The tentacles surrounding your indigo bow retreat back within the bow.<br>
			The tentacle-wrapped arrow crumbles into dust.

			Hey Everyone, I just rolled in an update that doubles the rate at which you gain affinity.

			IE: You summon a sprite weapon for 10 mana, you will get 20 affinity.

			I hope this makes the process a little less painful.
