"I think I'll take a health core, actually." Benji says weakly. The battle was as hard as he thought when he says those creepy figures rising from the gloom. Benji uses a health core on himself from the back row. Same battle order.

No offense but with positive reputation with the Guild of Invision it's unlikely that you'll be chosen

Same battle order Benji repeats his attack !

Thanks Zepher, that made my day And thanks CMP!

Battle Order: Barto Benji Xander Thormanil Althior Benji attacks the dastardly Skeleton Guard from the back row with the golden hand cannon. "I guess it wouldn't hurt to try."

Benji didn't have a tragic past... Well besides the fact that his brother was brutally killed... And also his family had problems... But it wasn't tragic...

"Smoke bomb, anyone?" "Listen, fellows, this loot does look pretty tempting but I don't know if it's really worth it. How many of us can actually damage the undead? Me and Althior?"

Fine. Then let's be off to the Ghastly Marsh. It sounds interesting

Broken Bridge is medium if I remember correctly. I want to make sure that we get there so why not do it now

Hey Sarge I'm glad you enjoyed the quest Now that Quest 42 is over I guess it's my duty to say what I thought - Erdy, Pretzel, and Sarge are all great and unique characters, and I really enjoyed hosting you guys. I hope all of you enjoyed and got good loot (a necessary aspect of any quest!!!) Thanks guys!

For anyone interested in going to the Unlimited Quest - don't worry! We're half-way through

Benji leads the party to the central sanctuary. There he drinks a mead and nostrum in preparation for their next battle. "While we're at the sanctuary, anyone else want to take a drink to prepare for our next battle? It should be a more difficult one, the Broken Bridge."

"Well... thank you my children. Anyways, thank you for helping me understand the true meaning of it all - and I hope that all of you will have a safe trip home. Eugene can escort you home if you wish... wait... where is that scaredy-pants genie!?" The quest was successful! Pretzel, Erdy, and Sarge all have improved reputation with the Guild of Invision.

He is no longer possessed, he seems to be back to normal, despite being wounded and weak from the battle with his friends. He runs to his father. "Father! Are you still alive?! Oh, Erdy, Pretzel, Sarge, please spare him!" *groan* "Finish me off if you please. But I beg you to listen." The old man is weak and could be dying. The heroes listen to the brief message he has to tell. "The staff has possessed me. All my life I have desired to do good for the world, but in the end this obsession has consumed me and turned me into a machine... I beg you to make sure that the staff is destroyed, so that no one else may be possessed with that madness. If you wish to end my life, so be it, I deserve it. But I at least beg you all to remember to never run after the things in life that seem to good to be true... things that seem amazing but at the same time unreal... follow the true things in life my friends. That is all I have to say." The party can choose what to do.

Ok, feel free to roll

Thanks. I have a spreadsheet with a proposed weapon set up that will enable me to do at least double power against all types of enemies affected by elements I'll consider the garnet, thanks for the suggestion

The final decision is...?

Strange? So far I've found that it's effective...

But if darkness can't affect demons then I guess it messes up the whole thing.

Let's continue the attack! Benji repeats his attack although this time with the grogmas hand cannon. Same battle order.

Please note that none of you u are at full health and if you rolled damage you'd be knocked out...
