Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
So, was she successful? Granted Hetr's hand would have provided some amount of cushion when Hetr's head bashed into the handle, but I would expect that at the very least he would have a bad concussion from that. And that's assuming his head was still attached to his body. The way it's drawn, his head is much too far from his shoulder, but if his head came off, I don't think the cape would have traveled with it, so I'm not sure how to interpret that.

You can definetly core leech inanimate objects that said the more often you do it and the bigger the object your affecting is the more likely the khert is to delete you rather than the object you're core leaching.
Something tells me trying to core-leech the foundation is just a particularly flashy way of deleting oneself from existance.I don't know everything merely everything of importance-Fidelias

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Why was it now anyone would care about Quigley?
He is just an insignificant mercenary who is going to be dead in a few years all the same.
And is Rahn also a tactic caster, or does he just have a lot of magic items prepared?thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Quigley's an asset and known (if reluctant) ally, Uaid's an asset and transportation, and Matty's a good kid.
Rahm is not a tacit caster. Didn't Ashley say something about only showing tacit casters by pointing them out with neon arrows because she can't write out the verbal commands for everyone all the time?

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Ahh.. no.. i mean why would anyone care enough about Quigley to try and steal him?
He is amusing enough in a snarky way as a character.thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Looks like you're right. I didn't realize that "borrowing" the aspect of solidity from stone, which Elka did several times, was a distinct thing from leeching it.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Bastion asked Rahm to dispose of him in the first panel here. Ashley mentioned that she originally planed for Bastion to kill Elan because Bastion "takes betrayal personally." My guess is that Bastion considers Quigley to have betrayed the plot, too (even if Quigley never talked to Bastion directly) and he doesn't want to take any chances with Quigley possibly causing problems in the future, so he wants Quigley to die. It's probably more a matter of not wanting to take any chances than actually expecting Quigley to cause problems.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
More importantly, Quigley has an entirely unearned reputation as a highly-skilled hero due to the play about him. Bastion's reaction to him is like finding out that Rambo or James Bond had wandered into the area while you're planning an evil scheme.
(So of course you put his son in danger and try to catch him in an elaborate deathtrap.)

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
I doubt that Bastion would be influenced by the play very much with respect to Quigley's abilities. Bastion probably has a pretty realistic understanding of Quigley's limitations. I think he talks to people a lot and probably knows that Quigley had to turn to the Black Tongues for help for Matty's blindness and Timofey might even have told him that Quigley didn't do all that well against Anadyne and Starfish. He would also understand that Quigley didn't have much prestige in Alderode before things blew up. I think he might have gotten the impression that Quigley might be more idealistic than he is from the play, though.
I think Ashley's answer would apply to other people more than Bastion, although it would be partially true for him, too.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Maybe Bastion doesn't want them becoming friends, maybe he thinks it will undermine any potential influence he might have, or maybe if they gang up they'll be too powerful together for whatever Bastion has planned. Or he fears Quigly's hate for Alderode might interfere with Duane traveling there (though he seemed pretty set on that).
Bastion didn't seem like the casually murderous type so I hope it is something more than Quigly being a minor complication which his plans would be better off without. I trust he has a real, solid reason for getting rid of him which we are not yet privy to.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
We did see Bastion pissed that Quigs and Duane were hanging out. That was the last straw--and, given Bastion's obsessive pride in Duane as his creation, possibly the only straw.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Quigley also insulted Bastion, by insulting Duane. Bastion doesn't like that.
I think there are zero chances of Duane and Quigs getting along. Quigs is a rather selfish person that has no other goals than self preservation. Duane is wide eyed idealist, with lust for vengeance.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
I suspect Duane can approach Quigley's good side by aiding his goals of self-preservation and Matty-preservation. Sort of like what's happening now.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Yes, I expect Duane and Quigley to end up in a "work together, bicker all the time" sort of relationship. On Quigley's part, at least. Duane keeps trying to be his Aldish expatriate buddy. It's kind of adorable, really.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Thanks for the explanation, makes a little more sense why a relatively minor player like Quigley would suddenly get focused like that.
Also missed earlier that he lost his magic, a bit surprised about that, but explains how easy he went down.thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Actually, as far as I know, the only pymaric Quigley lost was his bug cloak, but Duane gave that back to him. I think Quigley went down so fast simply because he triggered a very effective trap. Maybe he was too worried or distracted by arguing with Duane to be as cautious as normal, but I think it was mostly just a matter of Rahm being one step ahead of him.
Maybe Rahm was also thinking that Uaid was damaged, too, and was just lumping that in. Or maybe Quigley had more pymarics back when he first fled Alderode.Last edited by eschmenk; 2016-08-18 at 02:47 PM.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Well.. it is a little confusing, Rahm directly mentioned that Quigley had lost his pymarics, and though him weakend enough that he could have been left to the officials.

Re: Unsounded II: Two Wrights Can Mend A Wrong
Quigley has also been fighting for days now, and magic does cause fatigue. He may be much weaker than when he fought Duane, while Rahm has been saving his own strength this whole time.
Duane doesn't seem to be that tired, but it might be a zombie thing, or it could be because, as an instructor, he actually knows how to use magic in a less tiresome way.Originally Posted by J.R.R. Tolkien, 1955
