Heroica RPG - Second Anniversary Lottery

[Sandy]

The rumours had brought all available heroes to the Heroica Hall: it was that time of the year again. The time for great to come one's way. The time to hope that Fabula Sibylla would be looking down at you favourably. The time for...

"Fellow heroes of Heroica! As our city faces the greatest ordeals ever, we stand united and strong! Heroica will not falter even when all Six Houses are losing control of Eubric. We are the heroes this city needs, gods be damned!"

"It is again time to celebrate our survival from the great peril we faced two years ago. The Nephilim among us almost destroyed us, but thanks to all of you who joined afterwards, we have risen to new heights. Let us never betray the duty we have sworn again! We are sworn to heroism, to protect the innocents and to aid those in need."

"But doing so is no easy task. That is why us, the six Veterans, want to help you face whatever comes your way on your quests. And what better way to do it than to give out free stuff, eh?! It is time to begin the Second Anniversary Lottery of Heroica!"

"Just write your name down onto a ticket and you're all set to go."

[Emjajoas]

Em scrawls his name on a small sheet of paper, neatly folding it in half. "Em," it says simply. Though he was far from famous, he hoped they would at least know of his nickname.

He wasn't feeling particularily lucky, but no harm could come of participating. He sent in his ticket, excitement bubbling slightly in his gut.

As the battle rages with Messie and its minions, two familiar faces nonchalantly trot up behind the heroes.

"Oink! Oinkity-oink! [The Second Anniversary Lottery is here!.]"

"Baah baah... Baaahhh. [Write your name on this piece of paper, and I can return it to the Hall for you.]"

With a slightly perplexed look on his face, Hoke lifts the visor of his helm and slips Vintul under his arm. He quickly scribbles his name on the parchment and tucks it in the goat's collar.

"Now run along my friends. I would hate to see you wind up in Messie's belly!"

[Kintobor]

Karie, sitting at the bar, realizes the group of important looking people standing about the front of the bar.

"A raffle? Crud, I don't have any paper on me... Here, just take one of my autographed photos. Don't worry, I have at least two dozen more. They're taken with a light box and the qualities not great, but it should still work."

Karie Alderflask hands over her autographed photo to the man in the armor.

[Capt.JohnPaul]

Alexandre, swings his sword in the air, fighting the highwaymen currently. When he lands a hit, a slip of paper falls out of his pocket."Where did this come from?" Anyways, Alexandre signs his name, and Z-mails it.

[Pyrovisionary]

A glowing rat Scuttles in through the doorway. It is holding a piece of paper with a name scawled hastily on. The name reads; Sgt. McEncy

[Wedge09]

Entering in the tavern of the Dragon's Head Alexander says a small poster regarding the Second Anniversary Lottery. Under the poster there are a few piece of paper prepared to be written with the hero's name and Alexander decides to partecipate. He sign-ups writing Alexander Vandangant, the elven archer, then the Z-mail disappears from his hands and he continues in the tavern to continue his task.

[Cutcobra]

Heckz seemed to be scratching his hair in the middle of the fight when he grabs a letter saying something about a lottery. Heckz didn't really know how it got there but he writes Heckz Brutenhal, The Ghostbuster in it anyways.

[Jedi master Brick]

While looking round the house of Costello Abbot a note hits Elgar in the back of the neck. He picks it up and reads it before Signing it with Elgar Gligin, forestman.

[Scubacarrot]

Guts notices a slip of paper landing on his shoulder, quickly, he glances over it, and almost immediately throws it away again, but not before unintentionally marking the paper with a thumbprint. Lotteries, did he look like he had time for such things?

[Dannylonglegs]

Sylph stood behind the party, his scroll before him, trusting them to follow his orders. Before he could get a word out though, a piece of paper flew before the scroll and his eyes. Like a cat, he caught it.

"Hmmm... A lottery? Why not." Stated Sylph, drawing his pen to etch his name. "Sylph Solanum" He then let the flighty paper go and returned to creaming the Sewer Wolves.

[Shoker86]

Arnulf enter his name into lottery "Arnulf Bishop"

[TheBoyWonder]

Romulus notices the veteran standing at the front of the bar. He proceeds to quickly yank a piece of papyrus out of his pocket and in his messy scrawl he signs 'I, Romulus Dean enter the raffle."'

[Myrddyn]

"Raargh!" Erik yells, carving chunks out of his enemies in a frenzy. "Oh goody, free stuff."

He signs the paper 'Erik Tyrvarr'

"I've got Z-mail!"

[Endgame]

A letter seems to simply manifest in front of me, slowly drifting to the floor. I grab it before it gets drenched in the volatile chemicals.

"Anniversary, huh? I hope I don't get..."

I decicde not to finish that sentence, instead muttering "I've got Z-mail" after scrawling my name and instinctively checking my blood pressure.

Hybros stood in the kitchen of Guffington Manor, mulling over what to do next. A pink envelope fell in front of him. He read it, scribbled a quick 'Hybros', and sent it off again. Hopefully the letter's magic would resist time travel.

[Scorpiox]

"Ah, a lottery again. I love those things, got me some free stuff last year. Count me in."

[Captain Settle]

Louis wrote down on a piece of paper "Louis Argenshire"

In the midst of battle far away in the Chaochao Falls, a letter with notification of the celebration with a blank piece of paper appears in Thalion's hand just as he was reaching for his weapon. He quickly reads the contents and enters his name, Thalion Dwinlas, on the paper. As soon as he closed the letter and prepared to put it in his backpack, the letter vanished.

"Well, its back to the task at hand, I guess..." he mumbled to himself and entered the fray.

[Palathadric]

"Raargh!" Erik yells, carving chunks out of his enemies in a frenzy. "Oh goody, free stuff."

He signs the paper 'Erik Tyrvarr'

"I've got Z-mail!"

"Messy signature you have there, Erik," I say after bringing down the slug. "Check mine."

I absentmindedly seize on a paper that appeared in my cart from out of nowhere.

"Here. Might fine one, eh?

"What's all this Z-mail talk?"

The letter disappears. Pretzel has signed up for the lottery.

[Rumble Strike]

Tarn thought he was still under the influence of Confusion when the slip appeared next to him in the midst of the battle against the remaining Stars of Destiny. Pausing to look at Atramor to see if it was OK, he quickly scrawled Tarn on the parchment. It vanished, allowing him to focus on taking down more bandits.

[LordoftheNoobs]

Although he had been far from lucky throughout most of his life, Grimwald decided to enter the lottery as well.

"Worth a shot, I s'pose..."

[Jebediahs]

As the battle rages with Messie and its minions, two familiar faces nonchalantly trot up behind the heroes.

"Oink! Oinkity-oink! [The Second Anniversary Lottery is here!.]"

"Baah baah... Baaahhh. [Write your name on this piece of paper, and I can return it to the Hall for you.]"

With a slightly perplexed look on his face, Hoke lifts the visor of his helm and slips Vintul under his arm. He quickly scribbles his name on the parchment and tucks it in the goat's collar.

"Now run along my friends. I would hate to see you wind up in Messie's belly!"

En Sabah Nur follows Hoke's lead and writes his name on the paper then gives it to the goat to return. "I'm not doing much this fight. Every time I cast a damn spell, my target is swallowed whole!"

[Masked Builder]

Mandy flies in and drops off a note with Alexis' name on it.

[Tachyon]

A needle comes in with a piece of paper inscribed with Mizuki's name on it
