Heroica RPG - Quest#9: Trespassers

[Kadabra]

Arasmyth gave a quick swing of his staff at Bandit Leader from the front row.

[Sirius Black]

Bob will attack Bandit (Axe) from the back row

[Waterbrick Down]

"My these bandits are over confident are they not? Six to one and they're still mockin' us. Twill be there undoing I suspect." Skrall targets the Bandit (Axe) from the back row.

"Any furious screamin' higher than that Althior and you'll be forcin' me to give up heroing for good and go back to watchin' my kids as a stay at home ogre. What's he payin' you to be his butler Finnegan, half the gold he makes?" Inwardly Skrall winced at his own joke, he'd left home to escape from his children and now here he was betting he'd go back to them.

"Alright down to business. Mages let 'em have it with any spells you've got this round, don't worry about yer ether fer now. I'd rather have you alive and safe in the back row, then knocked out and full of useless ether in the front. Especially you Arasmyth, I admire your courage but that chain wieldin' wench could knock you out with one hit, due to yer previous injuries."

Battle Order:

Althior

Namyrra

Skrall

Dyric

Bob

Arasmyth

OOC: Stat wise, my weapon should be poisoned and Namyrra should be at full health as we both used our venom and potion respectively.

[Quarryman]

"Right, these guys actually look like they might manage to hurt us a little bit, but let's see how that Bandit (Axe) feels after a Darkness spell from the Back Row."

[K-Nut]

"What's he payin' you to be his butler Finnegan, half the gold he makes?"

"Actually, I'm his mage senses in a bottle. He takes his jokes too seriously."

[Bioniclover]

Edit: OMYGOD. I DID IT AGAIN. But that cloak should protect Arasmyth from some damage, tho, right? How does that work.

[The Legonater]

I continue to twirl my sword, waiting patiently.

[K-Nut]

"I' surprised my master has not lost his voice, yet."

"They must've used some time slowing device, like when we tried to get to the nursery at Ziegfried manor!"

[Quarryman]

Namyrra ponders whether she has time for a pedicure while waiting for these silly bandits to actually do something.

QM Note: Sorry this took so long guys.

[Quarryman]

"Right, they'll pay for what they did to poor Bob! I shall, again, cast a Darkness spell at Bandit (axe) from the Back row."

[Waterbrick Down]

"Finnegan give that master of yers a telephone pole, maybe he can hit something with it. Those of ya in danger of losin' the rest of your strength, drink a potion if you've got one. Namyrra, Althior, and I will take care of these thugs. Nammyrra that axeman is weak, let me quickly end him with my crossbow, the real danger is that chain wieldin' wench. If both you and Althior use one of yer darkness spells, we'll have her on the run soon enough."

With that Skrall targets Bandit (Axe) fro the back row

Battle Order:

Dyric

Arasmyth

Namyrra

Skrall

Althior

Bob

OOC: Just a few things, my weapon was poisoned, so the Bandit (Axe) should now be poisoned and Namyrra's strike should have done 60 damage since she rolled a great spell and darkness is effective against humanoids.

"Absolutely Skrall, I shall instead cast a Darkness spell at Bandit Leader from the Back row."

OOC: hmm, no, I should have done 40 damage. (Critical hit is 2xWP + Level, so 2x5+10=20, and then doubled due to the target being a Humanoid weak to Darkness).

[Sirius Black]

(OOC, I'm probably missing something obvious here, but how did i go from 9/9 health to 0/9 from the five damage I took?)

[Kadabra]

"I shall take Skrall's advice andconsume my remaining Potion."

[K-Nut]

Althior was about to reply to Sralls insult in rage again as a voice appeared in his head.

"There is no point in fighting, for you shall lose everything in the end."

He stumbled back, grasping his head, trying to keep the voices out. He managed to fire a darkness spell from the front row at the bandit leader, but then fell back, keeping the voice out of his head.

"What's a telephone pole?"

[The Legonater]

"What's a telephone pole?"

It sounds like a stick used to get the point across. Like this. I attempt to whack Finnigan, then return to the battle and swing at the Bandit Leader from the Front Row with my Longsword.

[K-Nut]

I attempt to whack Finnigan

"Stupid male man! I'm an aura, basically a ghost! "

[The Legonater]

"Stupid male man! I'm an aura, basically a ghost! "

Still irritated, I attempt to attack Finnigen again, this time tumbling to the ground.

[K-Nut]

Still irritated, I attempt to attack Finnigen again, this time tumbling to the ground.

" And you spelled my name wrong!"

[The Legonater]

" And you spelled my name wrong!"

I stand up again, silently wondering how to get rid of the irritating entity.

[Quarryman]

Namyrra is looking at her nails, wondering if a manicure might be in order once this ordeal with the bandits is over. ()

"Right, you're going down bitch! Another Darkness spell at the Bandit Leader from the Back Row."

[K-Nut]

Althior falls back, the voices still torturing him, he falls to the ground, breathing heavily. His dagger glints in the sunlight, giving him hope. He casts a darkness spell at the bandit leader from the back row.
