Heroica RPG - Cruel Angel's Thesis: Discussion
Flipz replied to Sandy's topic in The Heroica Archive
huh? As I understood it, both days and nights last for 48 hours. That means that we have about three and a half hours left (1:30 pm my local time, it's just short of 10:00 am now). -
Looks like Arthur didn't have a premonition of Ethereth, I did...

I like Avery. Can she become a recurring character, please?

Heroica RPG - Quest #77: Your Elves are Better than Ours
Flipz replied to Brickdoctor's topic in The Heroica Archive
"Well...yes. I was...sort of asking two questions at the same time. Three, actually. I wanted to know if you thought the meeting would accomplish anything...but I also wanted to know if we would accomplish anything of worth. 'We' as in us, as a party here...and 'we' as Heroes in general. Or, Hel, four questions--what about 'we' as intelligent beings on the face of Olegaia?" "Boomingham and Barty say that change for the better can happen, it's just too small for the mortal eye to see--they're dead before it can happen. But Boomingham, for all his years, didn't live through them, and Barty, for his divine immortality, has a...shall we say, limited...view of the world--and given their attitude toward the Syndicate, I'm no longer certain I completely agree with their view on the nature of the universe. I need to know--from someone who's lived long enough to have seen it with their own, unfettered eyes--if there's such a thing as reasonable hope." -

As Arthur walks to the Elven stronghold with Nerwen, he grows quiet. "Will this work?" he asks the Elven shaman somberly. -
There's only one thing to do now: the Heroes of both Quests have to kill Jacob and Christian simultaneously in two different times, ending the universe and having to restart it from the Infinite Featureless Plain of Death.

"I'm ready." And also off to class, unfortunately. I still want to talk to Nerwen alone at some point, dang it! -

Well, if I was a host and saw things like "19 unread messages have been posted. Show them?" as I was trying to type up a post, I'd definitely doubt the accuracy of my spreadsheet and want to go back and check. (And yes, that's an actual number of posts that passed my by at one point while I was trying to post. ) -

Hey, if you thought it was bad trying to read all that crap we posted, now think about how bad it is poring over it to find actions and resolve them in order! ---------------- Once the tally is over, Sandy, could we have a rules clarification as to whether or not a Level-up Mushroom can be used on someone else? Not that it particularly matters with the change to level displays, but it's going to bug me if I don't know. To those of you unfamiliar with Heroica: this is basically what 40% of the game is; conversations in the rules topic tend to go: Brickdoctor/CallMePie/Flipz: Hey, can I do this awesome overpowered thing with this ridiculous combination of class and equipment that wasn't intended to be used together? Sandy: What the--? All right, who made this crap? Brickdoctor/CallMePie/Flipz: Erm...you did, sir. Sandy: ...damn it. ...what can I say? We make Sandy's life interesting. -
"Is tha' even possible? I though' it'd only be usable on yerself?" From the shuffling noise, it's clear the nigh-invisible ogre has gone off to re-read the wording on Sham Poo's wares. "It looks like it can't be used on others, since tha wordin' don' mention a 'target'--jus' says 'gain a level when used', unlike tha Potion an' tha Tonic."

"Good poin'. They migh' be a good strategy fer keepin' someone impor'ant alive la'er on, tho--as tha level-up increases Health. Sort o' a last-ditch eff'rt. Ne'er min', Potions're cheaper."

"I don' thin' so...but I'm also certain tha' if an item exists, at leas' one o' us already has it, or at leas' an ability like it."

I think that's somewhere in the definition of "QM".

"Ah, so you would have two plus the Duke and they would have three? That's fair." "Lady Nerwen, might I suggest we move on to meet the Elves now? We should set the time of the meeting to be shortly after our noontime rendezvous with the others, so we're all in one place and have time to prepare." -
"Ya sure 'bout tha'? Ya seem ta be doin' a pret'y good job o' tryin' ta Smite Evil."

"That seems fair. Though I'm not sure who the Elves could bring in to match the Duke's social stature; perhaps Lady Nerwen could serve as a suitable counterpart if they have none of their own?" -
Zpilf wakes up with a loud yawn. The few that see his body poking out from behind Schezerade's broom notice a few potatoes still sticking to him, but otherwise there is nothing out of the ordinary. "Not ta mention," he rumbles, "there be quite a lot o' us, an' most o' us'll take more'n just one hit ta take down. Tha Days an' Nigh's 're already stretchin' ou'--tha situation'll get unbearably long if'n we don' trus' our instincts an' act when we need ta. Puttin' all tha actions in ta one centr'lized plan at one person's c'mmand'll just let tha kidney-people try an' subver' it, an' if we try an' go fer consensus...well, e'ryone knows tha' Heroes suck at agreein' at tha BEST o' times, let alone when some're tryin' ta kill us. We need ta do wha' we have ta do ta s'rvive."

"In that case, perhaps Lord Boomingham could escort you and your guards--how many do you feel would be fair, by the way?--to the inn, and Lady Nerwen and I could visit the Elves and bring them to the inn as well." -

"Perhaps we could arrange a meeting in a neutral location? That way, it would not be improper for both sides to bring armed troops--so long as a prearranged number of troops are present on each side," Arthur proposes Diplomatically. -
"By tha gods, STOP TALKIN', gremlin. 'S no wonder us greenskins get m'streated, wha' wi' tha likes o' you runnin' about." "Tha's it, I've had 'nough, I'm taking a long, extended Nap. If I have ta listen ta any more o' 'is drivel, I'll have ta turn me sword agains' meself."

"Indeed, tha gremlin seems ta be desp'rate ta save 'is own life." "By tha gods ya all speak too fast. I'm barely 'wake from me Nap, an' there's 'nough chat ta fill four pages o' a man'script." "Nord, I doubt tha Norn ta be a kidney-person based on 'er hesitance. She seems simply ta be cautious, like m'self. Dis'greement wi' ya don' necessar'ly mean someone is a scumbag. Tha' said, I'm rather on yer side when it comes ta tha gremlin--I thin' tha' we need more bold action, an' action like tha thefts tha'll keep 'im from doin' too much damage."

"I received such a mes'age jus' before me Nap. I am...unsure as ta wha' it migh' imply, but I'm willin' ta listen fer now." "I bin seein' a strangely large amount o' potatoes passin' aroun' tha Hall t'day. Qui'e a few bin hittin' me while I bin Nappin', which makes it hard ta tell when an' why 'ey were sent." Zpilf yawns, clearly ready for another Nap.

Wait, is Wedge09 playing the same class here as he is in-Heroica? That's hilarious!
