Elgar repats his attack hoping not to die

[Bricksandparts]

OoC: Stop targeting all of the same enemy!

Switched target: Worm (Aquamarine Eater)

[Bioniclover]

Knifk feels a jolt as one of the worms hurls itself against his shield, then shakes himself awake before thrusting Tfel at the Aquamarine Eater from the front row.

Johon switches his attack to the Diamond eater!

[Xarrzan]

"You worms can't win!

Oh yea!

The Heroes are here!

Oh yea!

You worms can't win, the Heroes are here, you worms can't win!

Oh yea!" sang Singerson in different pitches in order to sing the back up lines as well.

"Oh no! I feel a sadness approaching..." said Singerson.

Dirge of Dispair - This song revives one fallen ally to full health during a battle. This song can only be sung once per quest. “Ah...the dirge. This song is far too sad to be sung more than once in a very long while...”

Party Leader, decide what opponent is targeted by Singerson's song. Only one song can be sung per round.

Party Leader, choose the order of action.

All of you, choose your targets and the row you want to fight in. Also mention if you want to try to flee or if you want to use an item instead of attacking.

Any enemy not targeted will get a Free Hit on the party after everyone has acted.

[Jedi master Brick]

Elgar saw his hit land and went for a repeat of his attack

[Bioniclover]

Knifk twirls his scimitar and strikes the Diamond Eater from the front row.

Dirge of Despair vs. Hybros

[Bricksandparts]

Johon gets behind a rock and drinks a potion.

"Bard, heal Hybros!"

[JimBee]

Hybros struck the worm, but didn't expect it to retaliate so quickly. The cursed creature flung itself at him, and Hybros blacked out. He felt no compassion for the creature, it was spiteful and filthy. Yet Hybros could almost relate to it, being forced to live underground. No, no that wasn't right. The worm was nothing like Hybros, and it deserved to die...

When Hybros would wake up, he would plan to take revenge by attacking the Diamond Eater again, from the front row.

[Scubacarrot]

"You bloody rat! Barbarian, attack, now! Knifk stands ready."

Guts himself launches towards the the Sapphire Eater, from the front row.

[Bricksandparts]

"You bloody rat! Barbarian, attack, now! Knifk stands ready."

"I'll do it from the back row!"

Johon switches his action to attacking the Worm (Diamond eater from the back row)

[Bioniclover]

"I'll do it from the back row!"

Johon switches his action to attacking the Worm (Diamond eater from the back row)

"Tarok damns your soul, foul coward! Aegis shall protect you, attack with whatever strength you have in your noodly limbs!"

[Bricksandparts]

"Tarok damns your soul, foul coward! Aegis shall protect you, attack with whatever strength you have in your noodly limbs!"

OoC: oh didn't notice I was protected. Front row.

[Bioniclover]

OoC: oh didn't notice I was protected. Front row.

OOC: Could you at least try to read the thread before commenting?

[Bricksandparts]

OOC: Could you at least try to read the thread before commenting?

OoC: Sorry, it's a problem I have, read my hit, look over health, choose action. I'll try to read over it more next time.

[Xarrzan]

"At your request good Knight" said Singerson. One note on the guitar was strummed and the clear blue sky turned cloudy. The scene around the party darkened and the heroes looked around at the strange weather change. Even the worms wiggled around, thinking they might be back underground.

"The girl..." sang Singerson as another single cord was strummed. The clouds dropped a light drizzle onto the group.

"...all alone..." another strum of the guitar caused a downpour to fall upon the landscape.

"Her parents...gone...the girl...scared...the floods...too strong..." Singerson played a very slow song. All combatants stopped their attacks to listen to the song. A single tear fell from the bard's eye. The worms began to leak mud from their face. The torrential downpour washed over the quarry. Hybros began to float above the water. He seemed to soak up some of the water, become saturated and then stood up.

"It is done."

Results of Round Eight of Rock Worm Battle:

Knifk vs. Diamond Eater - Special Damage [Harden]

Hybros vs. Diamond Eater - Critical Hit ..[(10*2) + 17 = 37]

Guts vs. Sapphire Eater - Critical Hit .....[(8*2) + 14 = 30]

Johon Diamond Eater - Hit ....................[7 + 12 = 19]

>Elgar vs. Sapphire Eater - Damage

The battle against the Rock Worms continued. Singerson's sad song brought Hybros back to the waking world. Knifk attacked the Diamond Eater but it curled into a ball and hardened its shell. Hybros struck a critical strike against the hated Diamond Eater dealing 27 damage. Guts followed the same attack and dealt a critical strike against the Sapphire Eater for 30 damage. The Sapphire Eater crumbled to dust. Johon struck the Diamond Eater again with his Sword of Decay for 9 damage. The Sapphire Eater flung itself at Elgar's legs, trying to trip the Ranger but Knifk was ready with his shield and blocked the attack. The Aquamarine Eater's attack was blocked by Knifk's shield as well. The Diamond Eater's insides were burned by the poison for 1 damage. Both of the remaining worms decayed for 6 damage.

"Stupendous!" shouted Singerson.

"Amazing!

Outstanding and Magnificent!" Singerson danced a circle around the defeated worms, strumming the guitar at them. "You heroes are very capable indeed and I feel any person or item will be safe with Heroes of Heroica! That is why I am intrusting you with this." Singerson hands over an item. "It is the first of three items that I am searching for. I don't mind handing it over for safe keeping. And don't worry about selling it or giving it away to another hero. I was able to track it to a dragon's horde, I'm sure I can track it to whatever hero or merchant ends up with the item."

Party Leader, how will the artifact be distributed?

Beholder’s Eye (SP+1) (Artifact) - Allows player to see results of next round of combat. Gives players chance to choose another action or continue with currently selected one. QM decides if they want to PM the results to the user or display them in the quest to the entire team. Useable once per quest.

"Thanks again for your assistance heroes! I'm off to find the next artifact and I might call on heroes to assist me if I have difficulty obtaining it. But don't you worry, I'll sing about all your praises as I travel!" Singerson said while trotting up the path to the quarry entrance. The beginning of his song could be heard as he traveled

"The Orcish knight blocks attacks with might!

The rogue with a scythe is actually rather nice!

The hidden face rogue might lace your drink with toad, poison!

The well equipped barbarian will hide then attack like a carrion, bird!

The ranger never speaks to any animals, he'd rather bolt them to his wall!

The party never drinks healing potions!

Even though they fought in a dusty quarry!

Knifk, oh Knifk, the ladies want him!

Hybros, oh Hybros, if you face him you're toast!

Guts, oh Guts, will kick all your butts!

Johon, oh Johon, if you face him he'll bring it on!

Elgar, oh Elgar, will shoot you from oh so far!

Those are the Heroes of the Quarry Clean-Up Quest!"
