Not a cultural reference, but a reference to a different quest (my quest coincidentally, read up on Quest #57, if interested )

Sorrow spends a huge amount of money, while the orc gratefully trades the request items for the gold. Reminding him to be careful with the venom, the party leaves Mandrel's shop for the inn. Boomingham, Sorrow, and the yeti enter the Rusty Camel Inn (Alexander and Thalion, still looking at the wares, should catch up soon). The Rusty Camel Inn doesn't actually seem so much of an inn rather than a bar, but at least it will be a warm place to spend the night. "Everyone here is friendly, boys, so don't feel afraid of going around and talking to people. It looks like there is a card game going on over there, I might join in once I get a drink..." Sancho walks over to order a drink and talk with the bartender. The party should feel free to mingle or do whatever they want.

Benji cracks his knuckles and attacks Mountain Goat B from the back row. Battle Order: Nihai Unthor Docken Carvenhall Emorith

Mandrel quickly grabs the vial away from the assassin. "You break it you buy it! Anyways, that is extremely rare venom, imported from beyond the seas. Mandrel thinks it is generally used for advanced healing procedures, but Mandrel also heard that if spilled it could be highly acidic. The vial it is kept in has been specially treated so that the venom won't burn a hole through, haha."

"Mandrel thinks that 100 gold for future read is fair."

Hey! I asked him first!

"Mandrel could read your future if you want. Normally very expensive but since you Mandrel's friend, Mandrel could make a deal for you."

Mandrel is confused. "Mandrel has many special items, but if you could be more specific then Mandrel could help more!"

I've done more than that before

The party walks two minutes to the curiosity shop owned by Mandrel Two Toes. The lights are still on despite the late hour. Sancho enters and the party after him. "Sancho!? What you doing here, Mandrell already pai--" *cough* "I'm here with my friends." "Ah... Welcome friends. Mandrel was about to close up shop, but its OK because any friend of Mandrel's friend is also Mandrel's friend. What shall Mandrel get for you, friends? Maybe Mandrel can read your fortune, perhaps? Or take a look at Mandrel's potions and wares." The orc hops back and forth from one foot to the other with his hands clenched behind his back.

OOC: I should not have been damaged by the free hit. Benji repeats his attack. Battle order: Un'thor Carvenhall Docken (Emorith) Nihai

Yes, but its been 22 hours and Im going to bed now, Im exhausted...

Althior heals himself from the back row. Roll

"Um well yeah I guess I do know a decent amount of people... Yeah. So as long as the yeti is fine with it then we can go to Mandrell's shop before he closes."

Really cool scene, nice details! The water looks superb, as well of the rest of the MOC of course

CallMePie, I just noticed a huge mistake that you've been making with my attacks on the hippogriff. First off, all of them are aims, really strange But seriously, I should have a x8 multiplier against the hippogriff... not x2 like what you've been doing.Wind (flying enemy) x2, Fire (Beast) x2, Ice (Beast) x2.... So therefore the Hippogriff's stats should be more like this: Round 2 - 13x2x2x2=104 damage to Hippogriff, 387 health remaining Round 3 - 13x2x2x2=104 damage to Hippogriff, 283 health remaining Round 4 - 13x2x2x2=104 damage to Hippogriff, 179 health remaining

Smiling Sancho looks at Thalion's new dagger intently. "It seems that it isn't imbued with cheese, as that would be slightly ridiculous, but actually it causes double-damage to vermin." He turns to the rest of the party in an apologetic manner. "I am sorry for following the wrong frog. I know you fellers want to be finding this frogiffied friend of yours, but I recognize this area. Nearby is my friend Mandrell's curiosity shop, maybe he has something to help with finding frogs. Also, as the night has rapidly arrived perhaps we should spend the night at The Rusty Camel Inn, its a nice place and I know the bartender owner." The party now notices how dark it is out. Night is arriving. It will be difficult to find the frog in the dark. Does the party want to go to either or both locations?

Benji repeats his attack. Same BO.

It seems that I suffer from a similar issue as well Really sorry, mates, to make up for it I will add a bonus into the quest! Here is how the bonus will work! There will be two hidden treasures hidden somewhere in the area that you will travel. The first will probably be in an unlikely location that you will not ordinarily think of digging up / or a place that could be dangerous to dig up. The second will be a random other place, pretty much you have a 1 out of 100 chance of finding it each time someone digs. The only rules are: Each player can only dig once in each location in the quest. If he digs more than once it won't count for the 1/100 chance. Thanks and enjoy the rest of the quest Dead-End Battle Round Six: Boomingham heals Nagure - Shield: Guardian Angel >Nagure does nothing >Sancho does nothing Sorrow vs. Giant Rat Leader - Lethal Aim / Lethal Hit (74*2=148 damage, Giant Rat Leader KO'd!) Sorrow vs. Giant Rat Leader - Shield / Critical Lethal Hit >Thalion does nothing >Alexander does nothing Alexander: -1 health from poisoning Sancho: -10 health from deadly poisoning Sancho: -3 max health from cursed Boomingham calls his Angel to come and protect them from damage in the next round, but the angel quickly poofs away as Sorrow lethally destroys the last enemy.

No, no, this quest is definitely going to be shorter Anyways, at least I'm a nice Quest Master, if I cause a delay in the quest I add in bonus loot. You ever notice how much rare stuff you got on #42?

Oops, sorry

Benji repeats his attack. Same battle order.

MDM, I'd be interested in seeing your rendition of Benji, if you want

Benji repeatshis attack. Same battle order. And for the third time I have two health cores!!! I had one before the previous battle and I gained one from the loot from the ladt battle.
