Hybros attacks Lord Marsh from the front row with his Sword of Ancestral Hatred. Battle Order: Docken Hybros Felix

OOC: Cool. If you want to go ahead and roll, Docken should attack Lord Marsh.

OOC: ????? No.... I totally used the cloak then fled from the courtyard. Here.

Hybros grinned. Finally things were falling into place. "Docken, Felix, entertain Lord Marsh. He should be easy enough to defeat, even with his wife protecting him." Hybros swallowed a Nostrum and equipped his Cloak (I should have that) in place of his Golden Armor. Battle Order: Docken Felix Hybros Hybros

Hybros sighs. This was going to be more difficult than he thought. "Fine then. Good night to you both." He turns away and heads towards Samuel Shadeaux, looking as if he was going to mingle, secretely keeping an eye on the Marshes and waiting for them to go up to bed. Once they did, he would swiftly follow them upstairs and lock the dining hall door behind him.

I hoped you'd get that reference.

Hybros frowned as Marsh walked away. He turned back to Guts. "Alright then. Perhaps something a little more drastic is needed, hehehe." Hybros walked over to Lady Marsh this time. "Excuse me, I need a word, in private if you would not mind. Upstairs is as good of a place as any."

Hybros pauses and calls back to Guts. "Why would we need to? She has clearly been under her mate's control, with some sort of love potion. I do not think she has a hand in the plot, at least not intentionally."

"Nyx, you may speak with Chauncey. The less interference, the better." Hybros touched his hat once more to Guffington, then headed towards Lord Marsh with any allies in tow. "Excuse me, I will need a word upstairs, please."

Hybros' eyes widened at Nyx's entrance. "Nyx, I am... so glad that... well, I am... sorry." He shifted his eyes towards Guffington, then to the floor, then back to Nyx, then to the floor again. "There was a tricky situation, and... well... ehem, yes, this finally confirms Marsh's guilt. I will show this to Guffington quickly. Perhaps Chauncey did hire the Red Assassin, but if you want to do this together... I will be upstairs." He nodded to Docken, then headed towards Guffington. Touching the brim of his hat, he said to his host, "Ehem, we have found those who are trying to kill you. Lord Marsh hired the chef and the blue waiter. There is another assassin, though it appears she is here to protect you." Hybros showed Guffington the contract of the Blue Assassin. "Unless you have any objections, we are going to deal with this problem briefly." He nodded at Guts who was standing nearby.

"Ugh, so much talking. Schmander has put the U'Kin to sleep, but I'm very certain of his guilt. Who in the name of Olegaia would ever trust someone who barely spoke yesterday enough to lend them 15 gold? Keep in mind this gold had to have come from two different people, and that to me seems like a definite indicator of Nephilim. Again, I say those with the strength to do so, attack U'Dargan, and the Warden and Paladin protect these attackers." "I also take back what I said about Emmanuelle, I forgot he was investigated and cleared yesterday."

And Zarissa's compliance doesn't necessarily clear her of all guilt.

Wasn't there another spellcaster caught flinging spells?

"I apologize for my silence, there is barely time to get a word in with so much talking. It appears we have some potential suspects, with some strong evidence against them. I definitely encourage those with powerful attacks to focus on Eris, Piro, and... who was the other spellcaster under suspicion? I believe offing them right away is the best course of action." "I'm also highly suspicious of O'Dragon for the unexplained gold. Perhaps we could attack her today, as well. I highly doubt any true hero simply handed her their gold. Maybe our friends Brienne and Corelin could provide cover for these attackers, since O'Dragon will surely put her new counterstrike gloves to use. I do hit, though I feel my skills would be best put to use by outlasting the dastardly Nephilim, and I will be blocking instead." "Ezeal the werelion I am not so sure of. He seems to be raising red flags everywhere, but I can't say I blame anyone for following what they believe. Perhaps he is to be investigated today or tonight, unless of course that disrupts the order that the magnifying glass will be used established yesterday. Then, those will the ability to do so, can watch both Ezeal and the investigator(s) through their telescopes to eliminate any chance of a confused investigation result. It may expend resources, but it eliminates needless death." "My other suspicions, though not solid enough for accusation, include Shadir, who has not contributed much other than idiocy (a true hero would familiarize herself with the situation and act rather than spend her breath only on asking questions), and Emmannuelle, who subtlety pushed for Kob's death yesterday and who hasn't contributed much except for agreeing with others. I also find it suspicious that Doranee has not spoken up at all. You would think those damn Veterans would do something about that."

"That did not work out so well the last three times..." Hybros rolled his eyes.

Hybros stood quietly, waiting for someone to enter from the courtyard. "I am painfully aware that there is still part of our task left to be done" he said to Docken. "Though I am still unsure of what to do. Let us ask Everstein." He walked towards Everstein, and explained the situation. "The Red and Blue Assassins are dueling it out in the courtyard, though I do not believe the Red one is a threat to Guffington or any of his direct associates, eheh. There is still the question of Lord Marsh, who appears to have hired both Clippard and Watters. But all of our previous encounters with him have led to no success. Do you have any suggestions?"

Ooc: Sorry for my absence recently, I won't be able to access the Internet for a few days other than my iPod. I'll try to check in at least once a day though. Hybros listened intently to any quarrel outside, then looked for Docken. "So, Marsh is next." He spotted Guts speaking to him. "Best to stay back for now I think, hehe... Do not want a repeat of last time."

Jinnipher scoffed. "Jealous, greenskin? Perhaps your kind has not evolved enough to escape such narrow mindedness." "Anyways, this talk about a magnifying glass... it could work, but of course, who to trust? It may make the holders vulnerable while they use it or pass it along, not allowing them to perform another action."

Yes! And you also have to eat pizza, whatever that is.

Jinnipher sat in a chair upstairs, near the zombie and the Evoker. She loudly clunked her shield down, preparing to Block. "No sense in standing around. The Moon Elves are a proud people if helpless, but even I know when to fight and when to stand back and observe. When I get my hands on one of these treacherous rats, though, there's no holding back." "I'll protect you, sweetheart." Jinnipher's pointy ears perked up. "Not at all. Though if you want to see for yourself, I'd be glad to join you tonight. I'm not only fierce on the battlefield."

Zepher, on 27 August 2013 - 01:17 AM, said: "You Heroicans are fools. I wanted to see that my man was dead, that bitch wouldn't let me. Then you bring another bitch here to kill me. Ain't happening, bucko.""I am not the fool here, but very well. You have chosen poorly, heheh." Zepher, on 27 August 2013 - 01:17 AM, said: "I haven't fought anyone," says Avery loosely. "I'm personally not overly fond of killing those I don't have to. I haven't drawn a knife yet. Step inside and let me deal with the blue man. Though we'll have to have a word about you trying to have me killed. It doesn't paint you in a very pretty light, imp. Maybe I won't spare you, but that poor lady bleeding out surely shouldn't suffer for your ineptitude." "Do not play the fool. I am very aware of your targets. Fortunately for you, none of them happen to be those that we are concerned with. I will gladly allow you to complete your contract, although I am not quite done with Red Assassins just yet. You see, I have a particular interest in the art of death, and I think that cloak and membership to your guild would benefit me greatly, hehehe." Hybros showed Avery the Certificate of the Red Assassin and stowed away his Neutralizer and Phoenix Essence. "This is not the way I wanted it to happen, but I do what I must." Once Avery had given her cloak, Hybros fled back inside, knocking on the door for Felix to open it, if she had locked it. "I will be back for you Nyx" he said to her unconscious form.

QM Note: Ah, okay. And I am so confused about that right now. How on earth did I mix that up? I'm pretty sure Alexis rolled Whipping on Round 4, and Hit on round 5, and maybe I just swapped them? I'll have to figure this out when I can sit down at the computer to do so... EDIT: I think I accidentally edited the wrong round when I was autorollling, because I copied and pasted the previous round.
