Endgame

"Second time I've fought one of these fire-hurling gizmos. Except last time, it was sentient... Morrthon, then Keirall. Back row both times.

QM Note: Nope, you still have it.

I actually was throwing around ideas for a Plague Bringer class...

Round Four of the Medbay Melee >Punii mixes unlike jellies: 4 is rolled: 25 damage to all! >Sylph heals Lycan (back): Lesser Heal (18 HP healed, -1 ether) >Sylph casts Fragile on the Crippled Artillery Progg (back): Failure! >Lycan VS Progg Bomber (back): Hit Hit (12+11=23x2=46/2=23-2=21 damage, Combrys = WP: 13 >Lycan VS Crippled Artillery Progg (front): Hit Shiled: Mug (13x3=39+11=50x2=100-5=95 damage, 95 gold earned! Combrys = WP: 14) >Elgar VS Insane Crystalline Progg (back): Critical Hit (11x2=22+19=41x2=82 damage) >Galen VS Progg Nurse (front): Special Damage Special Damage: Precision Incision (Galen and Johon Gushing Blood) >Johon VS Progg Pyschologist (front): Miss Critical Hit (8x3=24+20=44-6=38 damage) >Alex VS Guardian (front): Damage (25-13=12 damage) Just like last round, the party starts off strong but soon loses their gusto. Punii creates a shockwave, sending all the Proggs back a few inches. Sylph just barely heals Lycan, but the pressure of the battle prevents him from reading his scroll. Lycan dishes out two tremendous hits. Combrys' dull hum is now a roar of power, the sound echoing off the cavern walls. Elgar slams an other ball of ice magic into the lunatic Progg, this one nearly snapping his tail. However, it was as if Galen had placed an order: The Nurse runs up to him with a scalpel and slices his stomach open, doing the same to Johon. Johon gets a decent hit on the Pyschcologist, but Alex recieves a powerful punch to the gut. "Slicedy-dicedy-doopidy-doo! Tee hee." Progg Nurse, Level 18 Beast HP: 128/350 SP: 4 Specials: Precision Incision: Slices the hero who rolled Special Damage and the hero next in the battle order open, cauing them both to Gush Blood.

That hero is Weaked and Fragile for 3 rounds. Each effect can be remedied or removed for 4 ether. Passive Specials: Pysch-out: Rolls of damage do 8+heroe's WP damage. Immune to all negative effects!

QM Note: Just got back from academic purgatory school. Just gotta walk the dog and I'll get the next round up! Also, Fugazi, would you actually want me to keep the Nurse alive after the battle or...?

...Oh god. The mental imagery. Iiiiiiiiit buuuuuurns.

"My, getting into the personal questions already, dear? This relationship is moving fast! Anyway, yes, I do have 25 younglings hatched... and about 50 more still in eggs! As the cute lil' larva grow older, they turn a bluish hue and become a pupa: from there, they can take care of the red larvae til' they mature. Of course, they still need mommy's help from time to time! Tee hee."

On second thought, I think the Proggs as a whole just seem to work (minus a select few individuals) with a Jazz motif - and I don't even like Jazz all that much! Case and point: this is what I imagine playing during most of the battles of 48, especially The Rally. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSKX9wrfjcM Can you tell I like the Paper Mario games and their soundtrack yet?

Here is Sorrow's: apologies for the intro, this it the best quality of the track I could find: And just for a bit more, this is what i imagine Aquos's battle them to be, minus the last phase of the music:

QM Note: Both you Lycan are now about 80 gold richer! The nurse emits a soft giggle. "I like you, Rogue. As much as I could like any disgusting humanoid, anyway. Anyway, reproduction. Believe it or not, Proggs can exit their shell at any time: though we only do it very rarely, usually for reproduction purposes." From the way she puts emphasis on reproduction, you begin to feel she does more with her patients then heal them... "Anyway, when the shell is off, the next step continues like it does for you humans. However, one (or several!) small Proggs begin to develop in an organ inside a female's tail. When that cute widdle Progg is all nice and ready, he is sealed up in an egg and is shot out through the tube of a tail. Much more exotic then "laying" an egg, huh? From there, or cute little baby eats through the egg, getting nutrition from it, and growing bigger and bigger til' pop! He hatches. Then all the adults in the room go D'awwwwwwww and isn't she/he precious? Believe it or not, only about 2% of the Progg population is females: although they tend to have about 50 to 350 children in their lifetime."

QM Note: Fixed.

Oh god sandy that is one reference you should never make. I hear that song at least 8 times a day in the hallway. Some people even substitute "Gangnam" with my name!

Round Three of the Medbay Melee >Punii mixes unlike jellies: No damage! >Alex remedies Elgar >Lycan VS Bomber (back): Special Damage Critical Hit (10x2=20+11=31x2=62-2=60 damage, Combrys = WP: 11 >Lycan VS Crippled Artillery Progg (front): Miss Shield: Mug (11x3=33+11=44x2=88-5=83 damage, 83 gold earned, Combrys = WP: 12) >Galen VS Nurse (front): Shield Shield: Mug (10x3=30+14=44x2=88-4=84 damage, 84 gold earned) >Elgar VS Insane Crystalline Progg (back): Special Damage: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest) >Johon downs a nostrum >Sylph VS Progg Pyschologist (back): Hit (7+1+18=26-6=20 damage, Poisoned transferred) >Sylph VS Guardian (back): Miss The battle rages on. Both Galen and Lycan have a magnificent output... then something about Elgar's posture makes the Insane Crystalline Progg furious. Something fragile in the beast's deranged mind snaps, and he goes into a frenzy. From there, the party loses a lot of it's steam. "This isn't cute anymore, dearie. Want me to explain the Progg reproduction system, by the by?" Progg Nurse, Level 18 Beast HP: 139/350 SP: 4 Specials: Precision Incision: Slices the hero who rolled Special Damage and the hero next in the battle order open, cauing them both to Gush Blood.

Punii, 2 month year old Progg Alchemist Jellies: Green x2, Red x2, Blue x2

I down a Nostrum and a Smelling Salts. "Think you can take us after we stomped Mis. Floodgate?"

QM Note: Yet another busy morning. I'll have Round 3 up ASAP.

"Hmm, I almost wish he was. We'd have justification to do a little bit more damage." I lean over the crumpled body for a second, wondering how someone could be so easily decieved. I turn to Ismelda. "Yes, we sent Floodgate packing. The coward. At least I faced my death 427 years ago. Although... I couldn't avoid it..."

Sorry for the lateness on, well, everything, folks! School/Christmas stuff takes priority, sorry.

"I've been called far worse then odd, m'lady. Trust me, what you've said about me is on the lower end of the "Insulting" scale." As I say this, I turn to take a sip of soup when I see guys socking a guard in the jaw. I contemplate running over for a split second, then just simply walk over to the fiasco. "You've dealt with the dark star before. Could you tell whether he was down under?"

Round Two of the Medbay Melee >Punii mixes bombs: No blast! >Sylph consumes Smelling Salts >Sylph uses Remedy on Lycan >Lycan VS Diseased Progg Bomber (back): Shield Shield: Mug (8x3=24+11=35x2=70-2=68/2=34 damage, 34 gold earned, Combrys = WP: 9) >Lycan VS Crippled Artillery Progg (front): Damage Hit (9+11=20x2=40-5=35/2=17 damage, Combrys = WP: 10) >Galen VS Nurse (front): Hit Shield: Mug (10x3=30+14=44x2=88-4=84/2=42 damage, 42 gold earned) >Elgar VS Insane Crystalline Progg (back): Special Damage (Insane Blabbering, Confused for 3 rounds) >Johon VS Progg Psychologist (front): Hit (8+20=28-6=22/2=11 damage) >Alex VS Progg Guardian (front): Miss Punii grabs two jellies and mixes them. The conconction doesn't even produce a spark! Sylph breathes in a bottle of smelling salts, the strong smell allowing him to swiftly remedy Lycan. Lycan goes on a slicing spree, damaging both of his targets and stealing gold from the sick bomber (careful not to catch his illness.) Galen whips the nurse once more, the rogue finally getting used to using spider web as a weapon. The crystalline Progg yammers on about some sort of sock-filled pastry eaten on Leif Ericson day, confusing Elgar. Johon makes a small scratch on the Pyschologist's shoulder, the Progg making a mental note of the Raider's battle style. Alex swings at the Guardian but misses. However, when swiftly dodging out of the way, the Guardian drops down his shiled, undoing the sentinel. "*giggling* Darling, if you want a room with me, just ask!"

Oh, gotta get that insectoid polybag. Just to mod it into some freakish Progg. I that Vermin Vaporizer. I'll probably snag that, and maybe the Warp Stinger and Star Slicer later in the year.

Yes, he is.

I clutch my skull mid conversation. "...Did... anyone else... feel that? Bah, Darkstar's work, probably..."

Round One of the Medbay Melee >Sylph seals Progg Bomber: Success! >Punii mixes bombs: 4 is rolled: 25 damage! (Progg bomber doesn't explode due to his sealing) >Lycan VS Bomber (back): Damage Shield: Mug (8x3=24+11=35x2=70-2=68 damage, 68 gold earned.

(All damage is halved next round.) With 6 Proggs versus 6 heroes (and a runt), the brutal battle begins. Sylph seals the Bomber, while Punii detonates a blast of his own. Lycan mugs the saled bomber, and tries to slice at the crippled army Progg. Enraged by this, the Artillery Progg smashes his bloody stub of an arm into Lycan, stunning him. Galen whips the Progg Nurse, the purple female letting out a grunt as the whip stings her side. Elgar lets blob of ice fly from his opal, the chilly orb of ether landing squarely into the insane Progg's face. Johon misses in his assault, the pyschologist reading his body language and moving accordingly to dodge the blade. Alex provokes a sentinel. "Whipping a woman? Classy."

Gaaack, time warp! Again! Eurobricks needs a more stable home.
