Shaken by the romping he just received, Thormanil slowly gets back to his feet. "No arms?! Sir, you just lifted me by the foot like a ragdoll. I'm no feather so that's a bit of strength. You might not even need weapons. Why, I bet you could take down this barricade by yourself if you wanted. Why haven't ya?"
-
Thormanil pushes his way through the crowd and vaults onto the ogre's back, wrangling it by one of its horns. "So, are you the one trying to kill Bastala? We've got a nice li'l party here. Even if you kill her," he offers, diplomatically, "you won't be leaving here alive, so it's really in yer best interest to just lay down your arms."
-
"Knock 'em all out and figure it out once they're down?"
-
"Well, we just came from stopping a raiding party on the bridge, and wouldn't y'know, we walk right into another about-to-get-violent crowd. I really didn't get the impression that Bastala had so little favor among the orcs here."
-
Thormanil recognizes one of the newcomers and greets her off the wagon, "Cinna! Damn if it ain't been a while."

In other news, I'm sitting here typing up a technical report for my Mine Plant Design class, and whenever I go to bold something key, I find myself surrounding it with [ b ] and [ /b ] tags, rather than just ctrl+B'ing it. It's gonna be a long night!

"Pay 'em? Heck no. I was thinking of walking right past 'em, but seems Dyric's got other plans."
-
"When we get outta here, Guts, you should really talk to someone about addiction, heh heh. Now put away the bomb'n let's just get moving."
-
"And who are you, exactly, t'stand in between us and our business? This blockade of yours doesn't seem too official."
-
Thormanil chuckles. "Stopping wars? Hah... The last time I even came close, I helped spark a war between two armies, or so the rumors tell. At least i got a funny little trinket outta it." He waves around the Tongue on a Stick. "Not t'say I wouldn't mind stoppin' this one. It's senseless, really. If, by some chance, y'all manage to overrun the Kingdoms, I don't think your people will stop there, no offense, but it'll be a slaughter. And if the Kingdoms can overcome your hordes, I doubt your women'n children'll lay down arms. Militia around every turn, it won't be an easy take over. Diplomacy's the only way for the two of ya to really thrive. Survive, even." Sorry guys, it's been a brutal week at school. Got another one coming up, but this one should be more available.

"And for Arthur, there were stockings upon stockings full of coal!"
-
"Well then... whoops! We should probably get to walkin'."
-
"Can't we borrow a troll or two? Aside from the smell, it seems like a better way to travel."
-
"Gor led your troops in your fight and was willing to die for your cause. This is over."
-
Arx gleefully flies over to retrieve the gold from Guts. "I sure wouldn't mind adding another toy to my collection, if no one else minds terribly."
-
"I'm fresh outta Phoenixes." Thormanil repeats.
-
Thormanil and Arx turn their attention to Dyruultar A, attacking twice.
-
Thormanil repeats.

"Yer a stubborn fool. So be it." Thormanil repeats.

With a hint of diplomacy, Thormanil shouts down: "Look, Gor, here's the thing. We've both agreed to this, er, how did you say it? Mezdalgathingy? We're going to come out on top. You'd have to pull a whole new raiding party out of your sleeve to turn this around. I mean, we're 'bout to take down your giant troll and topple the war platform you've got strapped to its back. Even if the troll falls on us'n crushes us lifeless, your forces're gonna be crippled and in no shape to siege the bridge. But we're pretty nimble so I think even I could get offa this beast before it crashes down. Continuin' this losing fight won't prove anything. You're all strong, proud warriors, don't throw your lives away. This defeat doesn't have to leave the camp. I sure don't wanna have to kill you. Acknowledge us the victors of the, uh, Mezdoggyshank and put your trust in us. We may just be mercenaries, but we were hired on to ensure the clans' best interests throughout all this. There's nothin' in it for us if we fail to do that." During Thormanil's little speech, Arx keeps his eyes on the war platform, making sure no one can sneak a cheap shot at the duo.

There are so many interesting specials/passives to throw into the mix. I've got so many mechanics/encounters laid out, I just don't have the coherent-quests to accompany them! I regularly sit through my EEE 8am lectures and scribble down encounter ideas.
-
Berserk. I'm thinking of Berserk. I'm going to sleep now. Thormanil attacks Travoush & Durmdyraz.
-
Oh, right, Enraged. Missed that. Durmdyraz is untargeted as it stands. Thormanil continues stabbing at Travoush.
