Welcome to the port town of Tristam, home to nobles and vagabonds alike. let the RP and story setup commence.

[aje8]

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
Waking up early, as usual, Fion proceedes almost immediatley to the library of his families sizable Villa.

Sitting down in his favorite chair, he slips a parcel from under his slightly billowing robe. To a casual observer, it would seem as though he simply straightened his cloak and ended up with the arcel in hand.

The parcel was addressed to him and written on the bottom was only "From A Benefactor." Fion smiled, knowing exactly what was inside. In seconds, the wrappings had been removed and a dusty black-bound book sat in his lap. Written on the cover in faded silver lettering were the words, "On the History and Use of Elder Magic".

Cracking the book open, Fion began to read. Midnight, the cat, soon joined him.

[DrakeRaids]

Josiah stood in the courtyard of the villa in deep concentration, a light axe in hand. Silently going through a series of cuts with the blade, each one stronger then the last. "One two," he muttered as he slashed, "one two three, one two, one two three." It still appeared to be little more then wild, albeit strong strokes.

Smoothly he spun the axe in one hand before turning toward a tree, he it was, the moment of truth....

Gurnting with effort he threw the axe, sending the weapon spinning end over end.

Accuracy: [roll0]

The axe went flying wide and, he saw with wide eyes, toward the Villa. Josiah barely had time to curse as the axe went sailing through a window crashing as it went, until it buried itself the wall of the next room.

"Not good." He muttered as he looked around, before walking away whistling, "Time to become scarce. And stealthy. Frickin axe. Wasn't balanced right."

[Tobi_goodboy]

Izhmir stood in the outskirts of the city enjoying the beautiful surroundings and basking in the ocean's unique scent.

"I... like it here."

Taking another deep breath, he headed out towards the nearby woodlands to gather foodstuffs to sell and help pay for the trip to his next destination--The Fanged Isle.

[aje8]

Fion had been in the library for about an hour, now about 1/3 of the way his thick tome. Midnight had fallen asleep on his lap.

Just then, an axe sailed into the library window. Glass fragments littered the ground as the spinning blade was caught in the wall about 6 inches from Fion's head.

With a MRRRRROW Midnight lept from Fion's lap and ran from the room. As for himself, Fion jumped up just as the cap left.

"AH! W-What was that? Are we under attack?!! The young scholar took deep breathes for 10 seconds, " Be calm, be calm." Recalling something from one of his many books, Fion said to himself, "Knowledge of the enemy is more deadly than any weapon." With this in mind, Fion tiptoed through the glass fragments and glanced about from the library window. From the window, Fion sees a hulking figure, quite a distance away. Knowing that his combat skills aren't very accomplishes and that his parents would never stand for him risking his life alone like this, Fion procceeded down the hall to inform the Captain of the Guards stationed at the Villa of what had happened, dark magic book once again stored safely under his cloak. He moved at a hurried walk, fast enough to get there quickly, but not fast enough to draw attention to himself.

"What happened? Nobody's here." After looking around the scene for several minutes without finding anything,

OOC: I was going to have my character notice you..... but the way it worked out with the nervous inexperienced mage, it would have been 20 or 30 seconds before Fion even got to the window. By that time, your character would probably be well away. Sorry it worked out that way.

EDIT: Tobi's post resulted in me changing stuff.

[Tobi_goodboy]

While heading towards the woods, a small *crash* reached his ears. He turned to the noise to see a boy (teen, actually) hurredly slinking towards the town. small distraction aside, Izhmir continues on his way.

(im gonna say aje managed to see a glimpse of his 'attacker', but not enough to confirm who it is.)

[DrakeRaids]

Josiah paused for a moment halfway to the town. His axe. Josiah groaned, his axe. Even if they didn't realize he broke the window, people would ask questions when they saw him trying to get a new one.... Besides he liked it. Even if it had been balanced by a mentally ill blind paraplegic. He needed his axe back, but how...

Laying against a nearby tree he sat there cursing his misfortune. What was he going to do?

[Tobi_goodboy]

(By the way, my character's basicly finished his actions 'till the plot kicks in so aje can go ahead and bring the axe to the sheriff/constubul/city watch (im questioning my spelling in all of those)).

[aje8]

(By the way, my character's basicly finished his actions 'till the plot kicks in so aje can go ahead and bring the axe to the sheriff/constubul/city watch (im questioning my spelling in all of those)).
Um... I was going to the Captain of the Villa Guards under the assumption that my powerful noble parents didn't just send me here undefended. If there are no guards stationed at the villa, I'll go the city constable instead.

EDIT: So, assuming I'm right about said guards (otherwise tell me or I'll change said post)

Proceeding through the villa at his hurried walk, Fion bursts into the guard captain's room soon after departing. "Captain! I think someone may have just tried to kill me!"

[Tobi_goodboy]

Um... I was going to the Captain of the Villa Guards under the assumption that my powerful noble parents didn't just send me here undefended. If there are no guards stationed at the villa, I'll go the city constable instead.
you can go to the guards in the villa to report that they suck at their jobs, but they dont have much jurisdiction in the city--that would be the city guards' jobs).

[aje8]

Hum.... true. After informing Villa guards, I'll talk to the city constable or whoever.

[Tobi_goodboy]

Hum.... true. After informing Villa guards, I'll talk to the city constable or whoever.
'Kay then. Fion is on his way to the town then?

[aje8]

'Kay then. Fion is on his way to the town then?

Sure.... let's skip ahead. Editing post into this one now.

EDIT:
http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
When Fion told Villa guards about the attack, they told him, among other things, to take the axe to Constable and tell him about the attack. Taking their advice, Fion was now proceeding towards town, the now sheathed axe placed somewhat obtrusivley under his left arm. Again he was moving a brisk walk. Though he was much more calm now, the purple haired scholar was still a bit nervous and glanced back and forth contuially, looking for any sign of the attacker.

[Tobi_goodboy]

(we may want to pause this till the other two are able to post what they're up to--i do believe you childhood friend would be very interested in somone attempting to 'assassinate you'.)

k, sounds good.

[AncientSpark]

http://i677.photobucket.com/albums/vv133/Emerald_Wing/Tanyav8.png

Early in the morning, before anyone had awoken, Tanya had went into town, to shop. Most of the times, the servants took care of necessary chores and had argued when Tanya wanted to go and check the markets, but it seemed like such a waste to come out to the islands and simply stand around. Not while she had no information on what she was looking for.

"Hmmm...it's hard to imagine something like this is real." She was inspecting an old tome, its binding made of crystal. The shopkeeper had said that it had belonged to an old holy saint, but the writing looked forged and the things written inside were not depicted very elegantly, to say the least. She placed it back with some mix of disdain.

"Oh, Fion!" She yells as she noticed her old friend rushing towards the town square. She motioned to wave, but almost immediately noticed something felt weird about him. She peered behind him, trying to figure out what he was attempting to escape from. "Um...Fion? Why are you acting like someone is following you? And what are you doing with that axe?"

Assuming that Fion tells her...

Tanya blinks and then thinks for a moment. "Assassinate you? How can anyone think that they can hit you from the courtyard up into the library on the second floor? Isn't that...well..." She stares at Fion for a few seconds, before shaking her head. "Forget it. I was not there, so there's no point in doubting you. She smiles confidently in an attempt to calm her friend down. "I'll come with you so to make sure nothing happens. You'll be just fine."

[Tobi_goodboy]

BTW, this city's background music is: Ships and Homes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-ySo-48ACA&feature=PlayList&p=A0005A166A014EF4&index=58) (quite fitting for a starting port town, no?)

Assuming you two go to the town's head guard/constubul/you-get-what-i-mean and inform him of your situation...

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/random10.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=346&u=12761528) Assassination attempt? Young sir, I dont see why anyone would want to harm someone from such high birth--out of respect for your family (*thinking*and fear of the wrath of the emporer)... Perhaps this is just a misunderstanding? the guard captain doesn't seem to understand the possible severity of the situation, his mind seems to be on other matters.

[DrakeRaids]

While sitting against the tree Josiah bristled slightly as he saw a figure move toward town, that, that was his axe! But now that he had it.... how was he going to get it back. Josiah paced back and forth discarding plan after plan. That one required at least four horse, so it was out. And besides, he'd never find a catapult that big.

Maybe if he, he could ambush them as they came out! Make it look like a robbery...

Twisting his bandanna over his face he moved to the edge of town to wait.

[aje8]

Tanya blinks and then thinks for a moment. "Assassinate you? How can anyone think that they can hit you from the courtyard up into the library on the second floor? Isn't that...well..." She stares at Fion for a few seconds, before shaking her head. "Forget it. I was not there, so there's no point in doubting you. She smiles confidently in an attempt to calm her friend down. "I'll come with you so to make sure nothing happens. You'll be just fine."
Fion looks relived, "Thank you Tanya."


Assassination attempt? Young sir, I dont see why anyone would want to harm someone from such high birth--out of respect for your family (*thinking*and fear of the wrath of the emporer)... Perhaps this is just a misunderstanding? the guard captain doesn't seem to understand the possible severity of the situation, his mind seems to be on other matters.
"It is precisley because of my position that this is so worrying. Someone could be trying to take my postion in the line of succession by assassinating me and thus gain the crown when the aging emperor and my father die. Or perhaps the attempt was to send a message to the Emperor that it's not safe for him anymore. There are any number of political reasons to assassinate someone of high rank such a myself."

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/random10.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=346&u=12761528) Sir. We'll be keeping lookouts for any suspicious people and question anyone purchasing weapons. Unfortuantely, we cannot hold the boats here, there are urgent supply deliveries to the royal family for the next few days.

If we do catch him, we'll hand him over to your people and let them handle the rest, understood? In the mean time, I'll escort you back to your villa.

[aje8]

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
"Thank you. Also, before we go, here is the axe the Pperpatrator used." Fion hands the axe over.

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/random10.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=346&u=12761528)

There's little use for this in my hands... Just hold on to it--you can use it to punish the assassin if you so choose.

[aje8]

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
"Understood let us proceed."

(Assuming we can start walking back to the villa now. That way we can be ambushed by the "attacker")

[Tobi_goodboy]

unless he notices that hes outmanned and outspear'd thanks to the beefy npc escort you now have.

[Trulhammaren]

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a144/waterdemon2002/haalee-1.png

After sleeping in for a few hours Haalee rose and once again thanked her parents for sending her here. Boy wouldn't they be surprised to find that I actually do less here and don't have to be sneaky about it.

After getting dressed, she started to head out to the barracks to try and get some practice in before lunch. Along the way she picked up a whisper here and there, something about an axe and a window. She wasn't really paying to terribly much attention to any of it.

[aje8]

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
As Fion, Tanya and the Guardsman walk back towards the Villa, Fion takes out a non-dark magic related book and begins to read as they walk.

(We can be ambushed now)

[DrakeRaids]

Josiah watched from the woods are large piece of wood in one hand as, they made their way back to the villa. There were three now, and one of the was just girl. Josiah cursed under his breath, what the hell where they thinking taking a woman out here? Didn't the fools know that these roads where dangerous? Why just last week he had... NO. Have to focus. Current problems. A girl and a scrawny kid. He could handle that. That guard meant business though.

Of course if they got inside the manor heaven knows he'd never get his axe back. He had to act.

He took a deep breath, now or never...

Moving out of the woods he struck the guard in the head as hard as he could with the branch while yelling, "Don't move!"

[aje8]

OOC: Do you have to roll an attack for that or anything? Regardless, I'm going to let Tobi deal with what happens to the guard.

Also, hope that wasn't too quick a reaction for a panicked boy..... may have been. But whatever.

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
When the blow collides with the guard captains head, Fion jumps back in suprise. If you had looked in his eyes this time you would have seen a sort of analytical panic. Think.... think...... what to do about a burly armed man in melee range. Looking downward, Fion realized what he was holding in his hands. In the same second, the words of his esteemed magic teacher came flooding back to him. "Be sure you have the page of your most dangerous aggressive spell boomarked, always be ready for an attack." A second's hesitation, then a rush of activity.

As Fion flipped through the book, he was already uttering the beginnings of a spell, "Riosen, Adgen, Igasu!" Just before he finished the spell, he had a twinge of recollection, like the armed man across from him was familair somehow.

[DrakeRaids]

OOC: Lets skip the rolls and just get this going

Josiah froze after he had hit the guard, squinting through his bandanna and finally getting a good look at the people he had been following.

Frick.

He began to step forward and say, "Fion?" before a wave of energy swept him off his feet and sent him tumbling head over heals into the forest.

[aje8]

He began to step forward and say, "Fion?" before a wave of dark energy swept him off his feet and sent him tumbling head over heals into the forest.
OOC: Psst...... I have only have a training tome right now. It's not dark energy..... it's neutral energy. I'll get flux when I promote to a shaman. As of now, I'm studying the dark. I've not embraced it yet.

I'm not going to respond to your post until Ancient posts..... after Tanya reacts, then Fion will get his second action so to speak.

[AncientSpark]

http://i677.photobucket.com/albums/vv133/Emerald_Wing/Tanyav8.png

Tanya instinctively stepped back, before she realizes who's attacking. A few seconds pass as Tanya blinks, before turns back to the guard. Taking out her staff, she touches it to the guard's head. A small spark of light heals the guard's injury.

"My apologies, sir, but you may leave now."

She then turns to the assailant.

"Fion, I think you can stop. And Josiah, what are you doing? Seriously, if you were the one who threw that axe, you're going to have to explain yourself. Otherwise, I think you are going to have to be...punished."

[DrakeRaids]

Josiah hurt all over. Today was not his day, it had been one thing after another, and now this. Well at least it could have been worse. Josiah sighs as he pauses for a moment and tries to that. He fails. "Punishment?" he groans, "What you going to do? Force feed me your cooking?"

[aje8]

EDIT: I was ninja'd by Drakeraid, but my post still makes sense pretty much so we should be cool.

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
"Josiah?! Here?! Tanya?? Agh I'm so confused." Frustrated, Fion turns to reason to puzzle this situation out. Thinking aloud, he contiues, "If Josiah ambushed us...... does that mean he's a traitor? Does that mean he's working with the assassins? But then why did he look confused and say my name before my spell hit him? Is he innocent somehow? But that's strangley conicenedental..... his axe just happened to land in my room and he just happened to 'accidently' ambush us?" Looking to his cool headed friend with a pleading look on his face, "Help...... I don't understand what's going on, I'm so confused."

[AncientSpark]

http://i677.photobucket.com/albums/vv133/Emerald_Wing/Tanyav8.png

"You...! What is that supposed to mean?!" She yells as she smacks Josiah over the head with her staff. "Hmmm...let me guess. You were playing around and you accidentally threw your axe into the library window and then you were too afraid to fess up! I'm right, aren't I?"

[DrakeRaids]

Josiah remained on the ground, as Fion ranted about assassins and traitors, "Well." He began, "This is awkward. I got shipped up here a few days ago after this incident with a chessboard and a wyvern, and kinda.... you know." he waved his hand vaguely, "Wandered off. No one pays attention to you up here so I kinda did this and that. I just got 'round to coming up to the villa and, well after that Tanya got the right of it. Maybe. Sorta."

He sighed and rubbed his head where she whacked it and grinned a bit, "You hit like a GIRL." he said with a chuckle, "Oh wait...."

[Tobi_goodboy]

nice to see everyone getting into their conversations, but the plot beckons: (btw, all npc text will be in slate gray)

You (fion, tanya, and josiah) hear a slight scraping sound further down the path. turning towards it you see a heavily wounded man stumbling towards you.
Help... monsters... I... warn the... village-- With that, he collapses to the ground, dead.

as if on cue, Another wounded man (?) shambles into your view. This one, however, is markedly less... human.

Black inchor oozes from it's open mouth, what clothes are still draped across it's twisted form now naught but tatters. various chunks of it's flesh seem to have fallen away, revealing the muscle and bone beneath. a low groan escapes its maw before it senses the presence of fresh meat (you guys) and advances...


*Meanwhile, at the Villa...*

While out practicing her archery on the grouds (villa's property/you get what i mean), a strange rustling from a nearby thicket attracts haalee's attention...

[aje8]

Fion looks horrified at the dying man on the ground........ "AGH! Undead?! Here?!?!?!? That thing is dangerous........ extremely dangerous. We need to get out of here and warn the village....... RUN!" Turing to Josiah, "I don't know what's going on or what you did, but I do know that I trust you leagues more than I trust that thing...... catch." And with that Fion tosses then axe to Josiah and begins booking it to the town.

[Tobi_goodboy]

now we wait for trul's reaction (s/he--no offense meant here--said something about being able to post on monday, so i guess we're on a slight pause until then)

[Trulhammaren]

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a144/waterdemon2002/haalee-1.png

Wonder what that could be..... Haalee thinks to herself as she nocks an arrow and attempts to investigate.


Short post get to get allow the story to continue, no need to make a pause on my behalf just yet. I might be able to sneak onto a computer later today, but not sure.

[Tobi_goodboy]

As haalee advances on the thicket, it rustles again, accompanied by a low groan...

[Trulhammaren]

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a144/waterdemon2002/haalee-1.png

"Hello? Can I help you?" Haalee says when she hears the groan, lowering her bow and replacing the arrow. Her free hand pushes aside some of the brush in her way trying to get a look at whatever was making the noise.

[Tobi_goodboy]

Just as Haalee reaches into the thicket, A boy tumbles backwards out of it holding a tuft of grass in his hand. They crash into each other, both land sprawled across the grass.

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/izhmir16.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=349&u=12761528)
"Oh... My apologies!" The boy quickly gets to his feet and, after a small bow, offers to help her up.

[Trulhammaren]

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a144/waterdemon2002/haalee-1-1.png

In her usual fashion Haalee politely refuses the boy's offer to help her up and stands on her own. Brushing herself off and retrieving the bow she dropped, she looked up at the boy and got a good look at him.

"No apology necissary, but if I might ask....What exactly where you doing in the bushes? And more to the point who are you? I don't think I've seen you around the Villa before." As a precautionary note, Haalee takes a couple steps back making sure to appear that she was just getting her bearings from the tumble.

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/izhmir16.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=349&u=12761528)
"I am Izhmir (he pronounces it 'Ishmir' so people cant call him 'Izzy' or something), I... was gathering roots and herbs in the wooded area near here and... I came here." He does another small bow, "Again, my apologies."

He turns to leave and a strange sight catches his eye. He quickly relizes what it was in time to quickly tackle Haalee out of the way of the lumbering undead's attack, claws barely missing her head and back.

"Run!"

[Tobi_goodboy]

...And with that, folks, it's time for the first battle!

everyone has their starting weapons and a vulnerary, so lets begin!

[aje8]

Love the starting music and moving player sprites!

Um.... how to we tell which zombie is which? They don't seem to be labeled and it matters quite a bit.

[Tobi_goodboy]

Love the starting music and moving player sprites!

Um.... how to we tell which zombie is which? They don't seem to be labeled and it matters quite a bit.

*shoots aje for pointing out one of this game's many flaws*

enemies are labeled numerically from left-to-right (my first update will have the enemies numbered, but not moving) *i only made this version a gif in a fit of boredom*

[aje8]

When so "numbered" do you mean numbers like 1, 2, 3 or do you mean the order they're posted in?

Also.... only the stats of the boss and 2 enemies appear to be given.

[Trulhammaren]

They are all there, just short-handed. Note the number under the enemy type. We just haven't done anything to them yet so I wouldn't really see the point in having all 8 or so enemies having their own section just yet.

I.e. 4 currently identical zombies, 2 identical skelingtons, and one doog face that needs a smitin'

[DrakeRaids]

OOC: Alright do the trees hamper movement / give any bonus?

If they do slow me down I'd like to move three spaces below where Aje is now and start murdering things. If not I'll just move 4 down from where I am.

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/DrakeRaids/spritejosiahportrait.png

Josiah charged after Fion, yelling "HEY! WAIT! LISTEN-" before barreling straight into an open plain, face to face with some undead monstrosity. Hell. Hell, hell, hell. He didn't bother trying to think, think at a time like this only slows you down, Josiah moved on pure instinct, attacking the monster and sending his axe spinning in a deadly arc toward its torso.

[aje8]

Assuming Zombies have an hp total of 25. Because Tobi's stat seems to be take DIRECTLY from Serenes and that's how much the zombies have there.

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png

Fion will move to 2 squared below the Zombie Josiah just attacked and hit with some magic. Rp will edited into this post momentarily.

Running from the body of the dying man, Fion heads in a direction generally towards the villa, but mostly away from the body. Coming up over a hill, he sees another of the fearsome creatures. "AGH!" Fion's hands shake as he holds the book, once again uttering the words of his fearsome spell. "R-R-Riosen, A-Adgen, Igasu" Seeing the creature still standing, he speaks again, this time firmer, "Riosen, Adgen, Igasu"

"Run? I don't think so. Nothing gets away with attacking me, I don't care if I can tell what it is or not." Knowing better than to stand in the open where she would be a sitting duck Haalee makes a dive into the nearby trees before taking her shot at the creature, that oh so nearly messed up her hair.

Move to c18 and snipe the bitzatch.

[Tobi_goodboy]

please post the panel (letter#) so i know exactly where you're moving.

if i guess correctly everyone's moving to:

Drake: H5 - the only panel within his movement range that he can attack from (yay for hatchet being a distance weapon), he also has an atkspd of 4 since i fixed my math.

Aje: either G6 or H6 (both being within move and attack range, the latter being in melee range of the zombie) *also, where'd you get those words from? first thing that came to mind for shamans was "azurath, metrion, zinthos" (cookie for the reference)*

Trul: C18 - attacking the zombie

Ancient: C2(?) - if heading back to town, also you have to be standing on the blue panel to visit it, so ancient can't visit this turn.

Me: D16 - attacking the zombie

after i get confirmation on the moves, i'll do the battle math and update the map.

[aje8]

Refrence is to Raven. Believe it or not, I considered those words.

Words were totally made up by on the spot. You can expect most magic words I use to be made up then and there and recycled.

G6. I'd rather not be counter-meeled.

My god that's a high res cookie!

Now I'm up-late and hungry. :smallannoyed:

[DrakeRaids]

Works for me

[Tobi_goodboy]

after ancient posts confirmation of my suspicion (sp?) or what move he's doing, I'll get the game updated.

[AncientSpark]

(Yeah, that's what I'll do. Sorry I haven't been posting recently. RL issues and all.)

[Tobi_goodboy]

(Yeah, that's what I'll do. Sorry I haven't been posting recently. RL issues and all.)

no problem, i understand. I'll get to updating the map shortly.

im still not sure whether im doing the exp right--aje, could you doublecheck my numbers plz?

[aje8]

im still not sure whether im doing the exp right--aje, could you doublecheck my numbers plz?
Well....what exp calculation are you using? Summoners? The different games have different ways of calculating exp.

[DrakeRaids]

Do the trees offer def bonus?

[Tobi_goodboy]

Well....what exp calculation are you using? Summoners? The different games have different ways of calculating exp.

the one from my ruleset is:


Experience Gains
Level* + Promotion Bonus** = Power

{[21 + (Enemy's Power - Power)] /2} + 20= Base Experience

Base Experience = Experience Gained for Damaging an Enemy.

{Base Experience + (Enemy's Power - Power)} + 20 + Boss bonus*** = Experience Gained for Defeating an Enemy

*Trainee units count as 10 levels lower for purposes of experience gain

**Promoted units get a Promotion Bonus of 20, non-promoted units get no bonus.

***Characters gain 30 additional Experience for defeating a Boss.

Units who do not deal damage to their enemy will recieve 1 experience.

Maximum experience that can be gained at once is 100.

im just unsure of my math.

[Tobi_goodboy]

Do the trees offer def bonus?

def +1, avoid +20

[Trulhammaren]

I'm getting 35.5 for the bas exp (rounding down I assume)

[[21 + (1 - (-9)] /2]+20 = 35.5 by my calculations

so assuming I did that correctly the defeat xp would be

(35.5 + 10) + 20 = 65.5

EDIT: Also assuming the zombies are counting as lvl 1
EDIT AGAIN: Oh and my next move unless someone see's a good reason not to move here would be d15 and hitting the zombie BEFORE Ihzmir.

[aje8]

Should be 46 and 76 respectively.

Google confirms. (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=2Lh&q=((21+%2B+(1+-+(-9))+%2F2)%2B20&aq=f&oq=&aqi=)

[DrakeRaids]

Alright, Aje, I'll move into the trees below me, and have you move two up, I'll attack, and then let the come to me next round. I'll kill one with a counter attack, then next turn you sweep down and get the last one.

[aje8]

Better: We double team the zombie this turn and kill it. The skeleton attacks one of us and we shrug. Next turn, we double team the skeleton at range and kill it.

[Trulhammaren]

hehe silly me, that's what I get for trying to do math again, in my head nontheless.

[DrakeRaids]

Better: We double team the zombie this turn and kill it. The skeleton attacks one of us and we shrug. Next turn, we double team the skeleton at range and kill it.

I just figured it would be better for me to tank the hit, you have no defense, and in the woods I'd have a def of 4, so it couldn't even hurt me.

[aje8]

I don't care about getting hit..... it's not close to killing me and we have a healer. Why not go on the offensive. The risk is what? If one of us misses, do I have a chance of death?

Math:
Zombie: 9 Potential damage.
Skeleton: 10 Potential damage.

Oh....... never mind. Yeah I'll hide.

Move to E6 and wait.

"These abonimations are everywhere..... I need to get asway and think." Fion the moves away from the abominations.

[DrakeRaids]

Josiah charged forward, axe firmly in hand. He didn't know what these things where, but one thing was abundantly clear. They had to go. Whooping as he dashed into the woods he gripped his axe and sent it into another deadly arc toward another foe.

Moved to I-5

[Tobi_goodboy]

*ahem* PLEASE POST THE PANEL (Letter#) YOU'RE MOVING TO. its very hard to know what you mean when you say, "im moving away from X"--how far? cutting through terrain or not? --while jumping over the corpse of one of your friends? carrying a tray of freshly made brownies?

i hope my point has come across.

and zombie damage is 6 base (2str + 4wpn. mt.), skeleton is a little higher.

[aje8]

and zombie damage is 6 base (2str + 4wpn. mt.), skeleton is a little higher.
What weapon is Skeleton weilding?

[BenTheJester]

Should be 46 and 76 respectively.

Google confirms. (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=2Lh&q=((21+%2B+(1+-+(-9))+%2F2)%2B20&aq=f&oq=&aqi=)

Wrong, you truncate, you do not round.

so that's 35 and 65(don't know how you got that 45)



In fact, if you have ever wondered why it's 21+Power instead of 20+Power, this is exactly why. 21 means that whenever you have +1 difference between levels, you get bonus xp, instead of needing 2 levels.

[aje8]

@ Ben and others who are looking at this math:

The problem is essentially a problem of Order of Operations.


[[21 + (1 - (-9)] /2]+20
The above could be read in two ways.
1. take 21 add 10 then divide by 2 and add add 20. This yeilds 35.
2. Take 10 divide by 2 add 21 and add 20. This yeilds 45. (You're right, not 6)

It is difficult to discern which the forumla refers to due to mix-matching of square and curved brackets. So.... yeah.

[TheSummoner]

(Rules of math, multiplication and division are done before addition and subtraction. By that formula, it is take 1, suptract the level difference between the attacker and attacked (-9), divide the result (10) by 2 (to get 5), add that to 21 (26) and add 20 (grand total:46))

[aje8]

Yes, but parentheticals are done before than any of that, and this equation has quite a mangled set.

But, point stands. 46 and 76 exp repsectivley as that was Summoner's intent.

[TheSummoner]

(My assumption is that he put the one I left black to clarify the level difference was -9 but forgot to put the end parenthesis

[[21 + (1 - (-9)] /2]+20

Makes sence this way, doesnt it?)

[aje8]

(My assumption is that he put the one I left black to clarify the level difference was -9 but forgot to put the end parenthesis

[[21 + (1 - (-9)] /2]+20

Makes sence this way, doesnt it?)
So... could this just be expressed as 41+ one half level difference?

[BenTheJester]

No, the 21 is divided by 2 as well.

[TheSummoner]

(Nope, because the added 21 is divided in half along with the level difference... Waitaminute, I did my math wrong before...

1 - (-9) = 10 + 21 = 31/2 = 15.5+20=35.5, decimal omitted = 35.

Yeah... I think the color coding helped. I normally calculate this sort of stuff in Excel, so I rarely have to put this much thought into it)

[Tobi_goodboy]

if anyone can translate all the number garble into english, please do so--you broke my brain.

EDIT: *thundering voice* Why is it exactly that ben and summoner are talking here WHEN THEY DONT EXIST YET? take it into the OOC please.

[Tobi_goodboy]

finished the update, added the table.

[aje8]

if anyone can translate all the number garble into english, please do so--you broke my brain.
(Long stort short, ALL exp numbers you have up there as I post this are 11 too high each.)

[Tobi_goodboy]

k, now i just need everyone to plainly state their moves and we can update again.

[Trulhammaren]

Oh and my next move unless someone see's a good reason not to move here would be d15 and hitting the zombie BEFORE Ihzmir.

ot to move here would be

[Tobi_goodboy]

noted and will be done.

[aje8]

If the skeleton's weapon has 7 might or more:


Move to E6 and wait.

"These abonimations are everywhere..... I need to get asway and think." Fion the moves away from the abominations.

If the skeleton's weapon has 6 might or less:

Move to h6 and attack.

"These abonimations are everywhere..... I need to get away and think, but first, I'd better clear the area." Fion moves to a hill adjacent to the zombie's hill, waiting until it had it's back turned. "I have the perfect spell for this. The long distance one I read about in 'A practical guide to Wind Magic'. Riosen, Ialen, Osondu."

I wouldn't need to post conditional moves if you'd just answer my questions.

[Tobi_goodboy]

*facepalm* i seem to have forgotten to post the enemies' weapon details and battle stats. I'll fix that when i get home (@ my friend's house atm, sorry).

[Tobi_goodboy]

so teh currently announced moves are:

trul- D15
aje- H6
myself- F16

now to wait for the others...

[DrakeRaids]

Josiah charged forward, axe firmly in hand. He didn't know what these things where, but one thing was abundantly clear. They had to go. Whooping as he dashed into the woods he gripped his axe and sent it into another deadly arc toward another foe.

Moved to I-5

I'd already said mine.

[Tobi_goodboy]

now we need ancient's.

[Tobi_goodboy]

a small announcement-- I'll be NPCing ancient till this weekend (he apparently wont have much computer access till thanksgiving break). I'll be updating the map/info shortly.

[aje8]

I have but one thing to say:
YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!
Lord bonus are awesome sometimes.

Not totally sure how I got 2 luck, but not complaining.

Yeah.... expect my move in like this weekend. I'm busy getting EoD map 1 up today and tommorow I'll be busy. But if I might make some time, we'll see.

If you want to update sooner then that, preliminary move:
Move to H5 and attack.

[Tobi_goodboy]

updating the map info now--i seem to have missed what the enemies were doing other than moving >_>

i'll also be adding battle pics, etc.

Move to H7 and attack the Skeleton. (Assuming Josiah attacks the Skeleton, I'll do this after he does. Cause he has more exp than me right now.)

Move: Move to J7 and attack Skely

i realize i still hadn't posted the visit dialogue for ancient, so here it is now:


*misc. guard* Hello? The captain's just returned, if you ne--Monsters!? on the path? I'll inform the captain right away! *runs off*

*captain arrives, rummages around in belt-pocket* Here, take this as thanks. Your information is greatly appreciated--FORTIFY THE GATES! THERE'S MONSTERS ABOUT!

[aje8]

OOC: Oh yeah.... this game. Let me go dig out my Fion recolor thing.
Also Tobi? I can give you a sample table if you want. My EoD ones are pretty simple so.... yeah.

Oh yeah and I'm pretty sure that implied profanity constitues a continuity break. "[term for sexual activity]" did not exist in this time period as far as I know.

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
Fion looks flabbergasted at the words comeing out of Josiahs mouth, he has not heard many of them before. Shaking himself out of it, he turns towards the enourmous dog. Moving as fast as he can in his somewhat restirctive clothes, Fion runs towards the beast. As he does so, he tries and fails to suppress the signs of fear in his face.

[Tobi_goodboy]

nice to see this game is so easily forgotten >_>

and most of today's harsh language does exist (sailors speak 'bad english' quite fluently--or so i hear), and there's even region-oriented slurs.

[John Cribati]

Oh yeah and I'm pretty sure that implied profanity constitues a continuity break. "[term for sexual activity]" did not exist in this time period as far as I know.

I'm sure there was always profanity. Back then, there was just another word for it.

[Tobi_goodboy]

I'm sure there was always profanity. Back then, there was just another word for it.

*deathglare* lurkers are allowed to lurk, but no talking in my IC topic unless you're playing the game.

[Tobi_goodboy]

*reserved for my eventual update*

[DrakeRaids]

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/DrakeRaids/spritejosiahportrait.png

"Come'on Fi!" Josiah yelled as he ran towards the last remaining beast. Flushed and feeling unstoppable he felt like he was ready to take on the world. He just fought monsters and won. What did he have left to fear? An overgrown dog that just needed to be put down? That was the realm of woman and cowards. Not a thing for him.

[Trulhammaren]

The attack from the beast surprised her and she inwardly chastised herself for allowing herself to get into a position to which it could attack her. Vowing to not let it happen again she moves herself into a better position and attacks.

Move G16 and atttack.

[Tobi_goodboy]

im impressed, both aje and drake did wonderful rp posts but never stated where they were moving to specifically >_>

seeing as no one except trul actually stated their moves im kinda stuck here. i believe i brought this up earlier...?

[DrakeRaids]

Oh yeah. Move to g-10

[aje8]

Darn I've been square sniped..... F9 for me please.

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png

Will post RP stuff when I feel like it.

[DrakeRaids]

And then there was one. Josiah grinned a bit, they had taken down all the monsters, protected all the towns citizens, and had overall been awesome in general. All things considered? Despite a few, minor misunderstands earlier? Today was a good day.

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/DrakeRaids/spritejosiahportrait.png

"Lets end this, taste the edge of my axe you freakshow!" Josiah yelled as he threw his axe at the charging dog.

Move: Move down to H-10, throw axe like a mofo

[Trulhammaren]

I can't believe I missed, I never miss....my injury must be more severe than I thought.

Move to F14 and wait.

CONGRATULATIONS! you've successfully defeated all the monsters!

The group goes back to the city to tell them that the monster threat has passed.

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/random10.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=346&u=12761528)
"You've already taken care of them? As expected of nobility. You have our thanks." He makes a slight bow and continues, "Though, the townsfolk are the ones who truly appreciate your efforts. The Blaskmith and Shopkeep have decided to give you a discount on goods purchased from them, and the owner of the Pub says that he's recieved a package for the young master." He salutes as the party heads into town.


Now, you all can RP amongst yourselves, shop (items available below), and Fion seems to have a package for him waiting at the pub...

benefits for your excellent work:
- All good purchased during this intermission are now 50% off!
- Everyone gains 5 support with each other for your excellent teamwork!
- NOTE: once Fion goes to the pub to accept his package, the plot will be advancing, so stock up, recharge, and someone might wanna go get the 5000g for spending from the villa!


Also, in my infinite forgetfulness, I seem to have neglected to give Ancientspark the item for visiting the town--enjoy your new vulnerary.

"We got out of that with no major injuries. That's... good."
*thinking is in black italics, btw* I may as well introduce myself to these people, they seem good at heart.
"...Thank you for your assistance... ah, what are your names?" He executes a small bow to each of the party members *I'm assuming were standing together in the square*"It's good... that we could warn the townspeople of the monsters before... anything happened."

(OOC: DISCUSS THINGS NAO. I dont care if fion suddenly pulls tanya into an alley and starts making out with her, just do something to show some activity in the topic from someone other than myself.)

[aje8]

OOC: Lol, That would be hilarious.
http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
"I am Fion, scholar and noble. This is Josiah and Tanya. I was vacationing here when well..... whatever just happened happened. Speaking of which, I'm curious to what sort of magic could have created undead servants such as those. While their purpose here was of course an evil one I see much potential in tireless undying beings under the command of someone noble and just. Allow law enforcement officials a break, relieve the impoverished from hard labor, Imagine the possibilities!" Shaking himself out of his rant, Fion contiued in a more normal tone. "But of course such a thing would be vile and a perversion of the cycle of life and death..... still though......"

[Tobi_goodboy]

(OOC: ooh, the old science: ethics vs. advancement arguement)

oh, and on a side note: I'll be updating this post with random info on the demon world's culture and social structure.


Demon world Information

The demon realm is a chaotic place--filled with violence, yet with hardly any malice. Though death-duels are heard of, they are hardly practiced in civilized society of late.

Every demon's influence, property, and social standing is determined by one thing: Power. This means that there are battles to prove one's strength at almost a constant rate throughout a demon's early life.

The more power you have, the better off in life you are. Everyone, be they male or female, young or old--seek constantly to better themselves and prove their worth.

Most demons are 'appraised' at birth to determine their rank and class, as is anyone who enters he demon world that hasn't been already.

After one has been 'appraised', their power is forever displayed as a glowing number over their heart. As one grows stronger, their number changes to display their new rank.

Demon Ranks / Example Monsters

O - The Dark Prince, The Queen of Darkness, Wild Dragons, King and Queen of the Manakete.
Example: none statted-out at the moment, so no.
------------------------------
I - peerless humans, incredible demons, trained manakete.
Example: Gwyllgi / Medusa / Zombie Dragon / Devil (upgraded gargoyle), '2nd tier' class player (level 6-20)
------------------------------
II - incredible humans, exceptional demons, adult manakete.
Example: Entombed / Wight / Gorgon/ Gargoyle/ (upgraded eye monster), '1st tier' class player (level 11-20), '2nd tier' class player (level 1-5)
------------------------------
III - exceptional humans, trained demons, young manakete, domesticated wyverns.
Example: Centaur / Bael, '1st tier' class player (level 6-10)
------------------------------
IV - trained humans, average demons, large predatory animals (wolves, lions, tigers, bears, etc.).
Example: Mauthe Doog / (floating eye monster), '1st tier' class player (level 1-5)
------------------------------
V - average humans, (mid to late teen) demons, small predatory animals (coyote, falcons, mountain lions, very ferocious sheep)
Example: Skeleton / Zombie, 'Trainee' class player
------------------------------
O - Infants, (human and demon) children, (early-to-late teen) humans, most mundane animals
Example: N/A

Adding to Fions last sentence Josiah nodded his head sadly, "Yeah. That and dead people smell funny. You have the oddest thoughts sometime Fion. Anywho, we know why those beasties picked here to go on a snacking spree?"

"What makes you say that? I see little to indicate they came form afar. Perhaps their motive here was assassination. If somebody was going to kill me, I'm at my most vunerable in the relatively unprotected villa. I believe Wazen, Ancient General, put it best when he said, 'Strike your enemy where he is the weakest and you are strongest.' In that vein, perhaps the undead came from a local source." Considering for a moment as he brushes some dirt off his robe, Fion has second thoughts. "But then again, my position as heir to but a side branch of royalty makes it relatively pointless to kill me for political reasons. Coupled with the fact that the undead seemed to strike without a specific target...... makes that theory unlikley. A Conundrum indeed."

"In my homeland... we have occaisional monster incursions--they're usually much more powerful than the ones we faced here today...

[aje8]

"In that case perhaps these monsters came from somewhere near where you live. Where are you from?"

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/izhmir16.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=349&u=12761528)
"The jungles to the far west, from the Kartha Tribe. Though, there haven't been any attacks anywhere else I've traveled to, so I dont believe they're after me specifically."

[Trulhammaren]

"But, you have seen these kinds of creatures before, correct? I personally have never seen anything like this, come to think of it.....there were stories of such creatures back home, something about an attack....I don't remember I never really paid a lot of attention to such things.

Anyway, now that we are not being attacked by decaying creatures, what exactly were you doing picking herbs and whatnot in the bushes so near the villa in the first place. Izhmir, was it?"

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/izhmir16.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=349&u=12761528)
"Ah... I was hoping to make enough money for the ferry to the capital (Marimo, so you guys know--refer to the map in the first post). I've been traveling, hoping to learn of other cultures."

"Though, I'm not very familiar to much of the plantlife of the area.."

[Trulhammaren]

"I feel I must ask under the circumstances, what's in Marimo for someone not around these parts?"

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/12/76/15/28/izhmir16.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=349&u=12761528)
"It is the capital of this region, correct? Surely it would have the most vivid example of this region's culture." He pauses slightly, "...a-and there's someone I'm meeting there."

[aje8]

While Izhmir and Trul's Charatcer (I forget your character's name sorry) talk, the following occurs:

Fion, ever the scientific mind, steps over to a Zombie. After scanning it for any distinguishing marks or clothes scraps, (to determine nationality) he pulls out a vial and scoops up a small piece of the rotting flesh. Fion is careful not to touch the flesh with his hands. He then corks the vial and places it in the pocket of his robe.

[Tobi_goodboy]

(OOC: ooookay... anyone wanna know who im meeting so far from home while aje's off in the background acting suspicious?)

[aje8]

(At this point, I have an idea to speed plot along. How about we use our money/discount to buy 1 of each Iron weapon and a heal staff. Think of it as insurance in case anything breaks mid battle or between shops. After that purchasing is done off camera, we skip right to Fion collecting the parcel and..... viola! Back on plot)

[Tobi_goodboy]

The above reply sounds good--I'll mark up the inventory changes and deduct the prices from the party's money shortly--and move along with the plot (sorry for the wait everyone!).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

(And so the wheel of time turns)
After the group does some mild shopping, Fion decides to go collect his package at the Pub. The package was wrapped in cloth, but from its size and shape it was obviously a book. A letter was attached to the wrapping as well:

"Hello there, little one. I stumbled upon this oddity while in the deserts of Tenuk. I already have a similar tome in my own collection, so I thought you might find it useful, given your situation.

But enough of that. A boat will be leaving to Voley shortly after the time you get around to reading this, so I suggest you go catch it. You'll meet some people very helpful to you in the near future."

Fion opens unwraps the parcel, revealing a book quite unlike any he'd seen before; Leatherbound and embossed with the images of an axe, bow, sword, and spear (near the corners, going clockwise from the top-left) with thorny vines surrounding the metallic discs set into the front and back covers (about six inches in diameter).

There was no title or marks to determine the author, and inside the book were illustrations of weapons and information on their manufacture and place/time of origin, along with (I'm assuming) the author's thoughts on the design and use of the weapon.

Flipping through, there are a good twenty blank pages spaced throughout the book, for no discernable reason. Slightly puzzeld, Fion slips it into his robe with the rest of his books.

The last line of the letter pulls at Fion's thoughts...



(DM Stuff: You've obtained the Blacksmith's Tome! It's a key item, which *unfortunately* does take up inventory space. anyone in the group can carry it, and it's use will be shown later on--you guys can speculate about it in the OOC topic)

[aje8]

Fion contemplated this matter for a minute."Well.... I guess this is it. The braking point. Will I obey my unknown benefactor for scholarship. Potentially risking my life and family for knowledge?" Then the answer came to Fion. "Yes"

Fion walks out of the shop, letter folded in one hand.

OOC: Where is everybody else right now? I need to know so I can figure out what I do now.

[Tobi_goodboy]

probably either still shopping or waiting for you outside the pub.

[aje8]

After exiting the pub, Fion walks out to his comrades. "Hum.... I've just recieved the strangest letter. I think I know my opinion, but what do all of you make of it?," He said, holding it up so all (presumably 3) of them can see.

[Tobi_goodboy]

"Strange indeed. If you've a mind to travel, then might I accompany you? I... ah, lack the funds to go myself."

Izhmir chuckles slightly to himself, followed by a short sigh.

"Though, my interest lies in the book. What could be so useful about a book... nevermind. The ferry to Voley is leaving at dusk, so it'd be best to decide soon."

[aje8]

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
"I will fund your passage. Call it payment for your services fighting those undead." Fion's kindly manner changes then to a resolved one. "I've decided that I'm leaving on this voyage. I've made few leaps of faith in life, I've been cooped up in a study analyzing the world for so long. It's time for a risk. If one or both of you are accompaning me and Izhmir, please say so."

[Trulhammaren]

"Of course I'll be going. One. I am sorta required to do so. Two. As nice as the Villa is, I'm starting to get restless and that's never a good thing."

[DrakeRaids]

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e182/DrakeRaids/spritejosiahportrait.png

"Hell yeah man!"

Josiah yelled as he smacked Fion on the back, grinning widely.

"The sea! I love the sea! All those open waves! This is gonna be awesome!"

[aje8]

The frail Fion winces after the slap from the burly Josiah. Shaking it off, he tenetativley smiles, "In that case, we're agreed. Let's catch that ship. We'll need to move fast to catch it." With that, Fion begins moving towards the docks at a jog.

[Tobi_goodboy]

The party arrives at the docks just in time to board (-250g for the fee).

the voyage is supposed to be a rather short one (about two weeks), but as with all good stories, it's never that simple. on the fourth day of their voyage, a small cluster of boats were sighted in the distance and were steadily approaching...

(k, now everyone say something about how they feel about the voyage and the suspicious ships so i can add the map and start this thing)

[aje8]

(Few questions.... that skip was faster than I was expecting.

WHO drives this ship.... is this a regular passanger ship? Pirate ship? Some kinda strange foregin shop? Are they expecting me? Completley suprised? Is anyone the ship suspsicous? Could one of them BE my beenfactor?

Ok so.... it's alot of questions. But still.)

[Tobi_goodboy]

-Who's driving? why the captain, of course.
-it's a merchant vessel making a shipment of... something, to the city of voley.
-they werent expecting you, which is why you threw money at them--hence the (-250g).
-there are a few people who could classify as 'suspicious', but they work on the ship in one way or another.
-your benefactor is MUCH too awesome to be working on a merchant ship, and his letter said something about him being in a desert... also, i absolutely LOVE the hook you set up with this whole 'benefactor' buisiness--i plan on using this to IMMENSE effect (and slightly ironic too).

[aje8]

Thank you, glad it worked out. The benefactor was simply my answer to how a spoiled ever watched noble got access to Taboo Tomes.

Will post a true IC thing tommorow.

[aje8]

the voyage is supposed to be a rather short one (about two weeks), but as with all good stories, it's never that simple. on the fourth day of their voyage, a small cluster of boats were sighted in the distance and were steadily approaching...
Fion sat in his quarters. It had become readily apparent that he did not like the sea....espically on a smaller vessel like this one. After being sick for the first day and a half, Fion had been exhausted until recently. Walking out on the deck of the ship for the first time since then, Fion sees the ships coming towards them. Turning to a nearby sailor he asks, "Are those friendly ships?"

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i66.servimg.com/u/f66/12/76/15/28/captai10.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=446&u=12761528)
"They haven't signaled us and they aren't flying any colors, so I'd suspect otherwise. We're a stout bunch though, so they won't pose much of a threat if things get rowdy!" A wicked grin crosses the captain's face, and a few of the nearby crewmates chuckle darkly as well.

[aje8]

"Hum.... in that case, should I perhaps retire below deck for safety reasons?"

[Tobi_goodboy]

http://i66.servimg.com/u/f66/12/76/15/28/captai10.png (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=446&u=12761528)
"If you don't want to get in the way, I'd suggest it. Though we're not so proud as to turn down volunteers."
His remark is followed by a hearty laugh, a few of the crew join in until the captain's sharp gaze set them back to work.

*Meanwhile, below deck...*
A cloaked man slinks through the cargo hold, uncovering and peering into the various crates and containers, muttering to himself how hot it is.

[aje8]

http://i888.photobucket.com/albums/ac89/aje8/Fion-Final-removal.png
"Understood. I'd rather avoid combat given the choice."
Fion then proceeds below deck to avoid getting an axe in the face.

[Trulhammaren]

Thinking solely of the opportunity to try her hand at accuracy while in a non-stable environment such as the boats Hallee speaks up. "I'll stay up here. If those ships happen to be foe, then my bow could be of use keeping at least some of our future adversaries at bay."

[Tobi_goodboy]

Izhmir lurches over to the railing just in time to avoid losing his lunch all over the deck, "Ugh... ships... always so--" *whatever sound effect puking might be*

---------------------------------------------------------
(now we wait for drakraids to post--i doubt ancientspark is with us any longer, unfortunately)

their characters will be npc'd by you two until the next chapter, then pulling it from the game unless someone wants to play as them beyond that.

[Tobi_goodboy]

screw this. the party waits until the next day (the ships catch up with them around 8:00 am the next morning). these are obviously pirates.

the captain rouses the crew to defend the ship just as a small explosion rocks the boat. the party agrees to defend the ship while the crew checks for damages, salvages the cargo, and try to make repairs.

this leads to the discovery of thesummoner's character by the crew, who with his wits and honesty, convinces everyone that he had nothing to do with the explosion and is only a simple stowaway. he's forced to aid the party in the impending pirate attack.

Um... ok....... story was skipped big time, but w/e. I'll simply move to T12 as we can't reach any enemies at all right now.

[Trulhammaren]

Hallee will wait where she is, for this turn.

Me NPC = bad idea, so no.

[TheSummoner]

Um... ok....... story was skipped big time, but w/e. I'll simply move to T12 as we can't reach any enemies at all right now.

(Yeah... there was suppose to be a string of things disappearing in the middle of the night... valuables, food, that sort of thing. Kinda disappointed really =/

Anyways...)

Ralneth notices a treasure chest on the enemy ship and moces to R11. The treasure will be his!

(Edit: My stat ups from level 1 to 3... +2 HP, +1 Str, +2 Skl, +1 Spd, +1 Luck, +1 Def... not bad at all.)

[Tobi_goodboy]

indeed (oddly enough, level 1 -> 2 you only got +1 to hp, skill, and defence. 2 -> 3 got you the rest, and I was suprised you got that good a level up). Anywho, Izhmir moves to u9.

drake moves to S8 to block the second stairwell.

and ancient stays put for now.

I'll get an update up when i get back from the regionals (yes, i'm going to a yugioh tournament. at least it nets me some time outside and human contact--which some people say i dont get enough of these days) should be around 5pm. i apologize, the update will have to wait till tomorrow--the tourney's still running (im borrowing a friends cell phone to post this in the first place) im crashing as soon as i get home, but it'll be worked on and posted the instant im awake.

[TheSummoner]

Ralneth to U12. He'll loot the ship on the far east and work his way west.

[aje8]

Q10. I'll be heading with Summoner to the western ships when they arrive.

Seeing the cloaked man on the deck next to him, Fion extends a hand. "So, you were drafted into defending the ship as well? What's you name? Mine is Fion."

[TheSummoner]

Ralneth takes his eyes off the enemy ship for only a moment to address the man who had just approached him.

"Ralneth... Ralneth Veldor. Lemme ask you something, kid... you ever fought pirates before?"

[Trulhammaren]

Hallee takes a defensive position near the stairs.

Move to T12.

[Tobi_goodboy]

izhmir notes that the right side is effectively covered by this newcomer and fion, so he moves back to his starting position (R9)

drake moves to R8 to back him up.

spark moves to S8 to take up stair duty.

"Greetings Ralneth. No, I have not. While I have read about a few examples of their attacks, my personal combat experience in general as well as in this specific capacity is almost non-existent."

[TheSummoner]

Ralneth rolls his eyes as Fion rambles on about books but doesn't let it be seen.

"All you need to know is this... They're slow. Maybe its the scurvy or maybe its because the bastards are drunk all the damn time, but they're slow. Either strike before they do or dodge the first swing and kill while they're open... You don't want to get hit by that axe..."

[Tobi_goodboy]

i apologize, aje, but Q10 isnt a viable space.

it's my fault though, i did forget to say that railings are no-walking zones, as are the barrels and masts (just the circular top part-panel, though)

once your move is corrected, i'll put up the update in my previous post.

[aje8]

R10 then. I'll post a response to what Summoner's character said when I get some time probs.

[Tobi_goodboy]

I'll be updating my second-previous post tomorrow, as i really need some sleep. i apologize for the recent delays.
