I certainly hope my plan doesn't have any holes in it. I want the wand.

Althior falls back, panting. "We're getting four phoenix essences if we survive this, so we can afford to lose a phoenix essence I think. I think no matter what someone will be KO'd this round, so let either Xander or I get KO'd, probably me. I can go after another enemy to avoid free hits, plus have to possibility of rolling a shield. Rone can Remedy Xander, who goes after another frog or the mellow crab to minimize damage. I'll get the carp so we don't get a free hit from him." Suggested Action List in battle order: Me: Carp Rone: Remedy Xander Xander: Frog or Crab Docken: Some other enemy.

Why do the results say I lost health if the Damage went to Docken? Althior repeats his action.

I think I smell a lynching in the near future...

Alright, Docken has his invincible shield, Rone has his lucky dice, Xander has his Precision bow, and what do I have? Some daggers I can't take advantage of and a few very common gems!

Nah, you broke up with me, remember? I'm not!

I think you forgot to subtract the health from the Phoenix, unless I'm missing something... Althior uses Lightning on the Phoenix from the Back Row.

D'oh. Completely forgot to look at Negative effects. Althior drops the shard of Earth and uses Water instead.

"But it's shiny!" "Well said! Fine, if you insist..." Althior lets the wind die off before sending a shard of Earth towards the Phoenix from the back row.

That saves me the trouble of building 9 different summons. I may need to do that now. Though I'd probably just wait until Necro.

"Must. Have. Wand." Althior fires a Wind Spell at Frog A from the back row.

Just making sure I get it. Plus, who can resist my silver tongue and stunning good looks. And just imagine if it were imbued with the Zirconia.

Poo you CMP. Still, I would gladly trade my share of loot and perhaps my Twin Sai for it.

Maybe I need to confirm my loot? Althior accepts his share of the loot, takes a nap on his bedroll, and then starts flipping a coin, waiting for the party to move.

Althior repeat's his action.

"I'll attempt to heal myself. If you think it's worth it, Docken, healing would be much easier if I were un-jinxed, plus I could roll a shield."

Althior heals Xander from the back row.

"I'd like to save my Nostrum for later, since he's down to pretty low health. I'm thinking maybe Dyric and Docken should take a turn to switch who has the loaded die, and Docken takes the free hit, while Xander and I sit out so we're not KO'd. Then, Docken, you can equip the dice while Dyric takes a potion, Xander takes a Potion, and I attempt to heal myself again, leaving you with the free hit. I can then give you a potion or heal you while everyone else tries to go after the Aquaphant, if it's not been defeated already."

Heal from the back row.

Same action.

Althior casts a bolt of Fire towards the Aquaphant from the back row, but if Dyric triggers it's special, Finnegan will pull Althior to the ground, having him do nothing.

Althior heals Xander.

Althior takes a remedy.

Ice spell at the Aquaphant from the back row.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. Though it was the older 90's animation and concept, it blew me away. I definitely recommend it, as it's such a great story.
