>incant 719

The bandages on your left arm come loose and you begin to bleed again.

You trace an intricate sign that contorts in the air while forcefully invoking Dark Catalyst...
Your spell is ready.
You gesture.
CS: +263 - TD: +269 + CvA: +14 + d100: +98 - -5 == +111
Warding failed!
You feel a surge of intense energy suddenly tear violently at your body! You feel drained!
... and hits for 11 points of damage!
... 15 points of damage!
Burst of flames char abdomen a crispy black.
You are stunned for 1 round!
... 20 points of damage!
You wince as the frigid attack fractures your right wrist.
... 15 points of damage!
Heavy shock to chest illuminates ribcage. Cool!
... 25 points of damage!
Strong blow breaks your neck!
The brilliant luminescence fades from around you.
The light blue glow leaves you.
The white light leaves you.
The very powerful look leaves you.
The deep blue glow leaves you.
The tingling sensation and sense of security leaves you.
The powerful look leaves you.
You feel less confident than before.
The air calms down around you.
A dark shadow seems to detach itself from your body, swiftly dissipating into the air.
The silvery luminescence fades from around you.
The bright luminescence fades from around you.

It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...

You mentally give a sigh of relief as you remember that the Goddess Lorminstra owes you a favor.

...departing in 10 mins...
You sustain massive amounts of system shock!
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.

there was a critter in the room with me.
WTF??

not completely sure, but something someone said about tending actually making you your own target comes to mind.

Incant = SHITTY. Generally speaking.

You will have targetted yourself somehow.

Heh. Not having played a sorcerer, I haven't a clue. However, I note that you gesture, but I don't see that you gesture AT anything. Is this a targetted spell, perhaps? If it is, you'll need to gesture at your target...otherwise, your target becomes yourself.

I play a wizard, but I was hunting with 410 and noticed that the same thing had happened to me after I tended my arm. I think that it might change your target as mentioned.

I bugged it, and spoke to Quabu. I should have directed my questions at a brick wall, I clearly new more about mechanics than him. At least he was a decent enough guy.

I agree that it looks like a bug in the tending system.

Quabu is a well-documented idiot when it comes to Game Knowledge and a Brauden-in-training when it comes to Customer Care. Personally, if I get him when I assist, I ask to see someone else. You are not obliged to give a reason why as well.
