The vikings don't look like they're in a chatty mood right now...

QM Note: I'll give Flare and Poison Ivy to around... the afternoon, other wise I'll choose their actions. The Canute Vikings stare at you.... Didn't this foolish old man know that their original beliefs taught to them since childhood said there was a warrior heaven? And that the more you fought, the more rewards they get?

You can edit the background in photoshop, just double click on the background layer and click okay at whatever pops up. Anyway... try Gimp. It's free, but you do have to download. But it is a great free version of photoshop.

Mug? The mug you performed didn't do anything since all the enemies were dead already, and you were one of the last people in the battle order. So did I miss out on some other mug? EDIT: Please be aware, though this effects none of you: all scrolls have only a 50% chance of success upon use. Ether is not spent if the effect spell fails.

Alexandre slashes out at the Elf Warlock A from the front.

You start to head back to town. Luckily, no bandits attack you on the road. But unluckily, you see smoke in the distance. "Oh no." The town is on fire, and the party rushes in to see what's the matter. The main plaza is covered in warriors sporting the Clan Canute colors. You watch them from the dark alleys until one looks up and spots you. "Hey! We serve the Draugr of Thaick, no we shall slay you! After them!" PREPARE FOR BATTLE!

There goes my puzzle... But that was the easy one....

Alisha buries the skeleton with the large shield. Nothing comes back from the dead. 2/5 skeletons successfully buried! EDIT: Oh no!!! Everyone's posting at once. Everyone is correct. 5/5 skeletons successfully buried! Shall the heroes go back to town?

Leo carefully lays the mummy in the grave. Nothing stirs or moans. 1/5 skeletons successfully buried!

"Why didn't we bury them right away, you ask? Because we don't know what grave they belonged in, and if we put them in the wrong grave... they would get even madder and kill us. Was my brother a draugr? Not that I know of. He was a human warrior, then died, and buried here. But now he's gone. I refuse to believe he is one... a draugr wants revenge, but nothing has happened to me. So unless we find more concrete evidence, I won't believe it." The heroes walk back to the cemetery. "Now we have to mach the descriptions of the ancient text to the skeletons themselves." Where will the heroes place the bodies? You recall the horrific sight of them charging out of the gate, and reread the text: QM Note: If you have trouble reading the text, I can translate it for you.

"We have to. Unless you want an entire cemetery of dead things coming after you."

The cleric says, "Sorry, I don't have any tonics on me, we could restock at Thaick when we get back. But you should know about my brother. I went into The Order of Clerics, my brother wanted to pillage. He was great friends with Chief Canute and Captain Gnorf, the leaders of the other clans. But unfortunately, we didn't get along. So the other clans, allied with my brother, hated me too. Then my brother died, he was stabbed through the gut and burned during a sea battle. He was sailed back, and buried in this meadow. That's when all the other clans were getting ready to attack. But since I was a cleric, they were afraid that I had some magical powers, so they haven't mobilized yet. Does that satisfy your curiosity. We should go back to the cemetery, and bury those dead bodies before they rise again."

The manuscript says: "All of these were written by poets, scholars, prophets, and that sort of thing. We can use the descriptions to put the skeletons back in the right place." You check the disturbed ground. "Oh no..." says Cleric Wulf, "It's a grave, and the body is missing. No, no, no... let me let you in on some family history real fast, my brother, a mighty warrior, was buried here." He gives the heroes a worried look...

After coming down the stairs Alexandre cries, "Charge!" He attacks Elven Warlock A from the front.

It is morning when you reach the meadow. Lying on the ground is the manuscript. Off to one side of the field, the ground seems disturbed. What next?

Leo vs. Draugr B- Special Damage Benji vs. Draugr B- Damage Alisha vs. Draugr B- Critical Hit Daxus vs. Draugr B – Shield Leo, unlucky again, stops in fear as the undead continues its howling. A minion rises from the earth. Benji takes half damage from being hit. 3 undead minions are about to get a free hit, but suddenly Alisha goes into a frenzy and kills every remaining enemy! THE BATTLE IS VICTORIOUS! How will the spoils be divided? 45 gold.

Alexandre draws his sword and moves down to the second level.

I meant for it to be in the South, the forest across the river... Alex attacks Elf Archer B.

My crossbow just wont do enough damage to the bridge, even if I hit it! I switch target to Elven Archer A. OOC: Doc, did my sulfuric gases corrode any armor or hurt the elves?

Leo vs. Draugr C- Special Damage Benji vs. Draugr C- Critical Hit Alisha vs. Draugr C- Hit Daxus vs. Draugr B - Special Leo attacks Draugr C, but stops as it suddenly howls into the night sky. Call of the Dead... Suddenly, an undead minion rises from the ground to help fight. Benji tries to kill Draugr C, but his crossbow won't do anything. Alisha goes for revenge on both her comrades, and slices its head right of its shoulders. Daxus targets Draugr B, but it starts howling too. Another undead minion rises...

Woops, your posrs are so colorful I hate reading them all. I mean, red, blue, gray, black, bold.... Switcht target to bridge launcher! EDIT: But it has 100 health, wouldn't the elves get across before we destroy it, and then it would be useless.

No, TheBoyWonder, I'm sorry. I went off a bit harsh on you there, and you responded perfectly and professionally. I'll get the battle up soon, if Benji doesn't post.

Alexandre le Chevalier shoots Elf Warlock A from the back.

No updates, still waiting for Benji. Also, again like I said above. I appreciate the helping part, but you could see something going on from the very beginning of the quest if you looked deeply. And there a point in why I posted. I'll just stop talking now to help forget all this unpleasantness.

That's fine. It's just that there are others and I will not name them. I encourage people helping and giving suggestions , but assuming command over others and playing Party Leader when they are not is a no-no.
