Heroica RPG- Quest #67: Nova Tertia

Recommended Posts

Haldor grasped Heckz' wrist to stop his painting and pulled him away.

"Jeaux, tell him something for me -don't sound particularly nice, but we've got to get him back one way or another- he either walks back with us, or we use force to make him walk back. There's six of us, but only one of him. I hate talking lizards, I thought they were supposed to be thick."

"I see more stirring in the brush, mates. If we get too violent on him, we're going to be surrounded by vicious man-eating newts..."

Tarn listened to the back and forth between Jeaux and the lizard. "I really do not think we are going to be able to talk him into simply coming with us. We have to ask ourselves now - are we all happy for these creatures to go back into cages? If we are, then we will have no option but to fight."

Haldor turned to Tarn.

"I've learnt that arguing over the morality of a job doesn't usually end well for all involved. If you feel that what this mission is wrong, then why'd you come here in the first place? It was clear from the first note that we'd be puttting animals back in cages, so that's what we're gonna do."

Tarn stared hard at the Nord. "I am here to fulfill the terms of this Quest. I failed my last one; as well as a blemish on my record it meant an innocent man's probable death. Now what say you to hitting this lizard on the head?"

QM Note: So what is the final decision? Ready for battle, or anymore talking with the spitosaur?

OoC: If we beat him in battle it means that we can cage him, right? If not I have a different idea.

"We have to get only one all by itself with 50 health or under to cage it. Don't kill it! Unless you have a different idea?"

"Yeah, these critters live in families, and they won't go down without a fight. They'll all die defending each other. If we want to capture one, we have to get it all by itself- and weak so it will not resist."

The automaton turned back to the lizard once again, <"Hmmm, you're more clever than I gave you credit for. Truth be told, I don't much appreciate being trapped in a cage, but that's life. We were hired to bring one of you back with us and that is what we are going to do. One of your number can either come back with us now, or we can kill all of your buddies and bring one of you back with us anyway. Think of the noble sacrifice you would be making to protect your fellow scaly brethren if you were to volunteer, or if there's some really annoying lizard among your number we could take him off your hands for you. I know if I had to choose between my life or that mage's"> Jeaux nodded in Heckz direction, <"I wouldn't hesitate for a second.">

"Alright then, sounds like we'll be taking you the hard way. We can't have all of you guys menacing the island."

Heckz looked at Haldor "Haldor if you interrupt me again without knowing what I'm going to do then you better start calling yourself Bald-or." Heckz got loose of Haldor's grip. Poor Jeaux, he doesn't know I understand what he is saying.

"Glad to hear it. We're taking this lizard no matter what it says."

Heckz looked at Haldor "Haldor if you interrupt me again without knowing what I'm going to do then you better start calling yourself Bald-or." Heckz got loose of Haldor's grip. Poor Jeaux, he doesn't know I understand what he is saying.

The nord raised an eyebrow.

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Are you sure you're sane?"

He then turns to Jeaux.

"Ask it how many there are of it nearby, and how close. Then we can decide it its worth taking or whether we have to pull a trick."

Hearing Haldor's request Jeaux asked the lizard, "When you say family. What are we talking here? 2 maybe 3 of you at most? I don't see anyone else nearby"

"Time we consider our options. Firstly, we've already tried to convince or trick this beast into coming away, and it didn't work, so that's that. The only other thing we can really do is to just take him now before every other critter on the island comes up. Follow up behind me."

Haldor unhitches his axe and creeps very slowly towards the Spitosaur. When he draws close, he prepares to attack.

"Look over there beastie, it's a double rainbow!" The nord points off in some random direction before delivering a sharp kick to the creature's kneecap.

BATTLE ENGAGED!!!

OoC: The conditions is that we need to defeat all but one of them, right? And the remaining one with 50 or less health, correct?

Benji attacks Spitosaur C twice from the back row.

OoC: I drank a nostrum and smelling salts earlier.

Benji laughs mockingly at the spitosaurs, "And you prefer death to captivity? Stupid reptiles."

Turning to the party he exclaims: "Leave the weakest one to be counterstruck (nearly) to death, that way we can make sure to capture one and not kill it by mistake."
