Capt.JohnPaul

QM Note: Something went wrong there for sure. Fixed.

A confused Alexandre leans back and tries to get some sleep.

"Hmm.... how was it complicated? Did you have to make a difficult decision? Something morally wrong?"

"Ohh... failed quest? Hard?"

Presumably, Sullivan left the company to someone in his will, though I have not made a story that deep. But if you would like to use it for something, just ask. I also remember Sullivan doing a business deal with another captain in Quest #60.

"So, what quests have you been on?"

Don't forget the struggling Sullivan's Fishing and Shipping.

"I'd never trust them. You just have to ask yourself, 'would I rather Eubric continue as it is, and have 6 powerful houses, or have 1 faction ruling?' Power seems best for the people when it is divided. One will get too corrupt, and they are corrupt already."

"Hmm..." Alexandre frowns as if confused,"what behaviour?" "Anyways," hearing snippets of the conversation across the room, "what do you think of this Wolfgang? Lie or not? Do you think they actually want to help Eubric?"

"I come from very near there. It was a small Elvish fief. Now where are you from?"

"I'm just curious. I'm in no search for trouble. You carved your name with the dagger. And left the wine here." "I'm Alexandre le Chevalier. I've done quite a few quests, including defending a Lion fort from elves, saving the empire of Dastan, and defending Luosh fom giant scorpion like species called Proggs. Oh, and I had to help this magician test magic pills, but that didn't turn out well."

The yellow one isn't. You got rid of the green one. You freakin' blew up the red one. When you want to capture something, I add in those. (It's a safety so you don't instakill your objective. For example, you might have killed all the spitosaurs before they got below 50 health.)

Alexandre smiles as he sees her reach for her dagger. He simply looks at it, then looks down at himself (wearing brightly polished black plate armor) then he looks at Karie. "Karie, don't even try. You put on a lot of makeup... what is it for?" Alexandre grins wolfishly. Another person he managed to scare?

Alexandre stops. Thinks for a moment. Then he just drags a chair from another table and slides it next to the other. He sits down and rests his left arm on the chair with the bottle of wine. "Wine de Charis? Tres bien."

QM Note: Oh yeah, you had to use the handcannon.

Alexandre, seeing Docken and Guts whispering decides the conversation wasn't meant for him. He still kind of slightly eavesdropped, but walked away to a table in the corner. Then waited.

OMG! Great idea in arena. I fight Docken, and I steal his Shield! Then flee! Just kidding.

Round 1 of the Rockling Rampage! Tarn vs. Orange- Critical Hit (13x3=39+22=61-3=58 damage! Target Stunned) Benji vs. Blue> Special Damage Damage (12/2=6-3=3 damage) Benji vs. Blue> Critical Hit Special Damage (9x2=18+29=47+3=50x2=100x2=200-5=195 damage!) Jeaux vs. Orange> Critical Hit (12+1+1=14x2=28+11=39-3=36 damage) Heckz vs. Orange> Hit (12+9=21x2=41-3=38 damage) Alan vs. Yellow- Shield (7x3=21+11=32-3=29 damage. +29 gold!) Bors> nothing Haldor vs. Yellow- Damage (12-7=5 damage) Tarn starts it off by doing a massive sweep of his sword, and stunning the rockling! The blue one has a strategy, and rushes Benji with its mouth open and bites him. Benji shakes him off, and shoots him. The elemental magic electrocutes the rockling beyond possible belief. Jeaux lands a decent hit on the stunned orange rock. Heckz joins him and blasts it one more time. Alan cautiously creeps behind the yellow rockling. He hits it on the head, and when the rockling's mouth opens in surprise, Alan sticks his hand in and pulls out gold. It rages and then jumps on Haldor, the supreme weight of the rockling pushes him down.

Definitely. Though we should remind the GM's of the new BK rules.

"Then I'll be glad to offer my services and prove I am trustworthy. I don't think it will be too much of a problem. I'm sure a lot of us here have roguish backgrounds more darker than me. I am an honorable knight after all.. ."

"Do not forget, the effectiveness and goodness may very well depend on the loot. If an enemy drops a Phoenix Essence, and the party doesn't have one, I can revive someone in the middle of a battle if I get my hands on it."

Alexandre smiles slyly. "Ah... yes. You are right. Haha, clever. Also, thank you. I'm much more confident now. Good for a party, yes?"

Suddenly Alexandre appears stronger, but also seems more like an arrogant prick. ( ) "Monsieur Docken, of course I can! Je suis le most powerful knight here. Anyone who disagrees can challenge moi to a duel in the arena!"

Hmm... maybe a few will live. QM Note: I am unaware of that. I guess you didn't bold it. Did you say you were using gold or something? Because I had it planned that a few of them were uncagable, and I never remembered posting that they were captured. (Are you getting confused with 'interested'? I remember saying the blue one was interested in the Aqua gem, but it never went into the cage.)

The Orange Rockling is surprisingly fast and it rolls out of the way, then jumps into the air! PREPARE FOR BATTLE!
