Benji disappointedly continues doing nothing from the back row. Same battle order! (Sorry I am not able to bold my actions because there is no way to do that on the phone... EDIT: Now on the computer I have bolded and italicized my actions)

The length of the whole battle.

Sorry I haven't been on the computer since the beginning of the week. As for the witch upgrade - I think #3 sounds best.

The enemy doesn't give a free hit You should know, a Paralyzing Venom was used on your scissors Yes yes, hopefully I'll be able to update more frequently from now on

She then damages and poisons the insane gorilla with 10 damage. Pretzel wastes ether to heal Dr. Trice.

Hi everyone, sorry for my absence I hope that within a couple days my life will it seems that things have come back to normal and I'll have time to keep up with the quest. Thanks to Docken for taking care of the party while I was gone! Benji continues doing nothing from the back row. Battle Order: Benji Carvenhall Xander Unth'or Bartholomew Docken Thormanil Nihai Althior Emorith

Sorry guys for keeping you guys waiting I just haven't has time to get the next round up with the computer (on phone right now )

Hey man good to see you're back! thanks

I think that I am a worse offender... I choose most of my specials while I'm posting the first post of the battle

Shush! Glad you're having fun, I designed it to make it impossible for you guys to make it challenging

Updated Battle Order: Thormanil Barty-Bart Benji Xander Althior Benji switches his attack to Aepyornis B from the back row with the Pongcanis Crossbow.

If he wants to damage Dr. Trice and the Staff of Life in the same turn then he'll need to target Dr. Trice, because Dr. Trice comes before. If you guys flee the battle before Dr. Trice is defeated it will be extremely unlikely that you will get your rewards. Just to let you guys know.

Final Battle Round Two: Erdathcath applies Paralyzing Venom to Sarge's Scissors Erdathcath vs. Staff of Life - Hit / Special Guard Monk heals Dr. Trice - No Healing Sarge vs. Adam (& Deadly Viper) - Miss Sarge vs. Orange Crab (& Piggish Pig) - Critical Hit Free Hits: Erdy - Deadly Viper, Batty Bat - (12+8/2 = 10 damage) Pretzel - Enchanted Rose - (5/2 = 3-5 = 0 damage) Sarge - Possessed Gorilla, Peckish Ostrich - (14+12/2 = 13 damage) Erdy starts the battle by applying paralyzing venom to Sarge's demonic scissors. She then proceeds to hit the staff with 29 damage, and poisons the staff. Monk doesn't manage to heal Dr. Trice. No one cares. Sarge swings but misses Adam completely, but then returns to critically hit and paralyze the Orange Crab and Piggish Pig. He damages the crab with 39 damage and KO's the pig. The party is afterwards pomelled with free hits from the untargeted enemies. The staff loses one health because of it being poisoned.

"That went surprisingly well! For a moment I thought I was going to be knocked out, although I am feeling a little slow right now." "I'd suggest that we try to get the carps out of the equation, and then next round you guys will be able to deal with those pesky ostriches..." Benji continues his previous attack. Same battle order.

"Well well... What do you suggest, Docken? Since I have the only aura now, I could easily be knocked out if things go badly..."

Final Battle Round One: >Erdy throws Fire Bomb >Erdy vs. Staff of Life - Damage / Special Guard >Sarge vs. Adam (& Deadly Viper) - Hit >Pretzel heals Dr. Trice - No Healing >Sarge vs. Gorilla (& Orange Crab) - Miss Free Hits: Erdy - Deadly Viper, Batty Bat, Peckish Ostrich - (12+8+12/2 = 16 damage) Sarge - Enchanted Rose, Piggish Pig - (5+1/2 = 3 damage) Pretzel - Orange Crab - (22/2 = 11-5 = 6 damage) Erdy chucks a fire bomb into the room. It damages all enemies with 5 damage, except for the Enchanted Rose and Possessed Gorilla with 10 damage, and Dr. Trice and the Piggish Pig which weren't damaged at all. Erdy next attempts to damage the Staff, but she is not seriously damaged. Sarge snips violently at his previous friend Adam and the Deadly Viper, causing 25 damage to each of them. Pretzel doesn't manage to heal Dr. Trice, which is probably for the better as they seem to not be on best of terms at the moment. Sarge misses out on causing any more damage to the enemies.

Sorry guys. Yes, I would've used a grand potion so everything's fine Although you didn't lower the amount of grand potions that I own, not that I mind Benji attacks Silver Carp A from the back row with his Golden Handcannon. Same battle order.

My mistake, I misunderstood it, it seems. OK, so now we just need to get Erdy's say so that we can get this battle rollin'...

Same battle order! Instead of giving a potion to Xander, Althior continues his previous attack. Benji continues his previous attack.

Hmmm... human and elf in love with each other is new... wait never mind... um... what about the grouchy dwarves? Scary dragons? Never fear, I'll think of something...

Die Roll.

A confused enemy - The enemy has a 1/2 chance of hitting a random ally instead of the target with every DAMAGE or SPECIAL DAMAGE rolled for it or with Free Hits for three rounds.

No, he can target 4 enemies.

Well my first name is Ben/Benjamin so Benji is the annoying nickname that I try to prevent people from calling me Carvenhall is a mimic of the name of the village that Eragon (Paolini's Inheritance Cycle w00t) came from, Carvahall. Voila, Benji Carvenhall Backwards it reads... Uq Namyrra...

Battle Order: Docken Carvenhall Unth'or Nihai Emorith Benji attacks White Rabbit E from the back row! "Good luck gentlemen!"
