Endgame

As for Beast Skrall... Dragon? Mammoth is a good suggestion, though.

Yes, definitely.

Also, Lind, to answer your question, I sent in the overall synopsis of the Immortalis quest to Sandy for approval before I start to really getting into planning it, so don't expect to see it until 139 is winding down.

Hooray! I eagerly await the results.

"It'd not like we're an army, we can leave if we want... right?"

"Uh, okay... I'm kinda competent. I've fought five battles."

"No one here you like, I'm guessing." Terry sips his glass. "I still think that's a bad philosophy."

Terry shrugs. "Huh? I don't get what you're getting at, mister. You think I'd believe that there's a dragon who can make the weather explode? I grew up in a farm where the crazies tthing was a Direwolf with tan fur." "You're tellin' me there's no one you like, and that no one likes you? That's not a good way to live."

"That... No, there's nothing like that on Olegaia. There can't be!"

"I mean, sure I heard fairy tales, but they're real? They're giant fire breathing lizards! That can't be real." Terry's eyes scan up and down the hall. "So his head would scrape the cielin' right about now?" says Terry in awe. "Well, I got some "ethereal potential", or something. And apparently that's better spent here than washing pigs. And everyone needs friends. Or you die old and alone, that's what my grandma said. Funny coincedence, she drank life a fish, predicted how she'd go... Thanks for the help, lady."

Terry's eyes widen. "Archangels and dragons? Really? I thought dragons were, well, just fairy tales... How big was it? 10 feet tall? 20 feet?" "Uhh, Lind... You're... Pretty bad at making first impressions..."

Terry shakes Line's hand in a bit of a daze. Things were lively around here. "You two know each other?"

Terry glances oddly at the main behind him. "Thanks, but... Do I know you?"

You plan your loot? Beyond big artifacts I just wing it.

"That's... One way to put I 'spose..."

"Not really. Six months ago my speciality was washin' pigs."

"Really? Thanks!" says Terry, tossing over the gold. "Well, 'gainst spiders, maybe. But anything else? Like a human? Nah... I thought heroing was all loot, swashbuckling and romance, and I don't think I've encountered much of the second and third."

Terry cranes his neck to look at the items on display, bobbing his head to the tune. "100 gold for the staff sound okay?" "We, uh, had to run from em actually..." "I'd kinda prefer it to be, least that way nothin' would eat ya or anything like that."

"There were bones. Of people who, uh... couldn't take on the scarabs, lemme put it that way." Terry squirms in his seat a little. "How else do you say it? I'm no poet, though, you're right about that...."

"Err, no. One quest under my belt. Big underground sand maze. The scarabs were thiiiis long." says Terry, stretching his arms out. "You play good music, lady."

Terry sits. "You're the ones drinking, not me." says the hero slash farmhand, trying not to let his eyes linger on the blue-haired woman's wings. "I'm Terry. You are...?"

You guys didn't think I forgot Terry, didja?

Careful not to bump into anyone, a rather nervous Terry walks into the hall. He was slightly more confident than before, having braved the Parlor... Emphasis on the "slightly" bit. He quickly noticed that his timid posture was making him at least six inches shorter than he already was, and draws himself up to his full six foot posture. Still didn't fix those noodly arms of his, though. He signs up for 141, and as he walks away from the questboard, unsure to sit.... "H-hello, fellows." says the boy, standing awkwardly in the middle of the room.

You can only obtain true awesomeness as a Minstrel by doing a sick guitar solo, and then matching its quality with a sick triangle solo. A triangle/cowbell would be a pretty decent joke item for a Minstrel, actually... *scribble scribble*

Minstrels terrify me... They're hard to balance for as a QM, and seem very very boring to play as. If Sorrow (somehow) went Minstrel, I feel as if hed end up choosing the best song for the battle and just playing it nonstop.
