"I'd like to find Sam and ask him about the trap--door. If we go, I'll go last, and if I hear your screams as you're devoured by the dragon whos feeding chute this is, I'll stay behind. Be sure to scream loudly."

:laugh: You're awesome, man! :rofl:

How so? Can you elaborate as to which types are an issue? The way I see it:

Type In Quest - Monster Type Translation

Fire - Fiery Monster

Water - Aquatic Monster

Wind - Flying Monster

Ice - Icy Monster

Lightning - Electric Monster

Wood - Plant Monster

Light - Holy Monster

Darkness - Demon Monster

These worms take on the properties of the minerals they eat.

But then there is also undead, beast, vermin, humanoid, and mechanic, which do not correlate necessarily to one of the elements, I guess what is trying to be said is that elements are for attacks, types are for types, and mixing the two can be confusing. For example I could have a fan or vacuum type monster, I would classify it as a mechanical monster, not a wind monster.

You know, JimButcher, if Hybros is going to use those consumables all the time, maybe you should write his name as Hybros. :tongue:

Sorry if I am analyzing too much in Quest 29, I know it took a lot of work to arrange this interwoven quest series, I mean no disrespect in my comments. It is intended only to help, but I realize I am doing it a lot.

If you mean pointing out what I missed as far as stats, then please don't be shy with those. I know I make mistakes on those, and if I do I prefer it if you point them out to me. :sweet:

Erik prepares to swing his axe at the unicorn from the front row, but first he says "Hello Mrs Peggy, why are you attacking us?"

Nagure hits Peggy from the front row.

It's not a unicorn, its a Pegasus. That's why it has wings and is flying.

It's an alicorn (winged unicorn). Rumble, I am dissapoint that she's not named Princess Celestia. :tongue::poke:

EDIT: Fixed Celestia from Celestial. I hate IPad autocorrect. :hmpf_bad:

I don't think the types you used are as self-explanatory as you make them up to be, and players can get confused about which elements they can use to damage these enemies. As a QM you have to look at things from the players perspective and always be specific in your enemy descriptions to avoid misunderstandings. "The way you see it" may not be the way the players see it, remember that.

So please use the official enemy types listed in the rules, or if you want to use original types, please mention their elemental strengths and weaknesses as well.

OK, because this has been gnawing at me...

(Disclaimer: I am not planning this, if I suspeced it of anyone it would probably be Tammo. :tongue: )

Random question of the random time interval: If someone hosted an obvious My Little Pony parody Quest, who would sign up, and in what order? :tongue:

And a Question for Sandy, because all of the bronies on here will undoubtedly bug you about it :laugh: : If someone were to pitch you such a Quest, would you allow it? :rofl:

Are you asking everyone's opinion on what we think the order other people would sign up, or something else? I have never watched a complete episode, can only name 3 characters, and would probably miss all of the references. So Skrall probably wouldn't be going, besides he even can't ride a horse let alone a pony. :tongue:

Well, William Harkenshire/VolcanicPanik would certainly sign up, if only to allow for better use of 'Storm the Stalion'! :grin:

Yep. I've only ever used Storm twice. More chance of RP even if I have to sign up for a MLP quest. :grin::tongue:

I haven't seen a single episode of the modern series, so I wouldn't know the quest was a parody to begin with. :tongue:

I would camp out in front of my computer for days waiting for the signups. Literally.

Leo was sitting down, thinking about Luc, his brother, when a female voice could be heard.

Is An Elf named Leo in here? The voice said. It seemed familar, an essence of his past. Could it be? No, she was dead. Probably just one of his kin.

I am over here. Leo shouted.

The woman walked over. She was radiating beauty, like a flower brightning up a dull world.

Leo Aragon, so nice to see you again. She grabbed Leo in a warm embrace. Her identity hit Leo like he had been bashed by Cronk.

Pandora, your alive? Didn't they kill you?

You and Luc are not the only good Brobrics. Luc's old friend, the cleric, he healed me. Saved me. Told me where you would go. So I came.

Pandora, I still love you. I always will.

With that she lent over and kissed Leo.

Leo notices Benji looking over at him. He and Pandora decide to say hello.

Benji, this is Pandora. Pandora, Benji

They then go out into the streets of Eubric.

Leo and Pandora walk back into the hall. Leo has a look in his eyes and tells pandora to get a drink.

What the hell, TheBoyWonder??? Can I just say that I'm seriously creeped out by the fact that you've created an NPC love interest with my name?! :distressed::damn:

Pandora really isn't a common name, and I would think my username would be reasonably well known enough for you to realise the association.

This is not cool, seriously not cool. Please change the name to something else. :angry:

Woooooooooooooow. :facepalm:

OK, looks like I need to speed up progress on that project I've been working on...Doc, if I'm gone for more than 12 hours, feel free to determine Arthur's battle actions. I apologize, but I really need to finish up this project. :sceptic:

Alisha walks into the Marketplace, clutching her head with 135 Gold clinking in her pockets as she did.

I believe you forgot to take into account the naughty little urchins stealing through the marketplace. They will be more than happy to relieve a drunkard of her golden items of value. :laugh:

One might enquire as to just how manly Sorrow could actually feel, given his... condition! Glad you are enjoying it Endgame. You have certainly been an enthusiastic party leader so thank you for your excellent contributions so far.

Only thing that I don't like is that darn suit of armor. Makes me want to tackle and interrogate him, but that's probably not a smart option... :laugh:

Also, I'll be starting an "Undead are People too" campaign of ONE MORE child insults me... :devil:
