I believe it was 60 gold the last time. Ah, okay, thank you! I admit I haven't read every quest, but I'll look into those.

That's awesome! I love Jeaux's character (and also think it's rather fitting that you're a programmer IRL, or so you said at some point). Just one question regarding something that I might have missed: has he realized that he's an automaton? I thought you were playing him so that he didn't, but his current quest seems to indicate otherwise.

QM Note: Really sorry for the delay, guys. I put the scythes in Skrall's inventory for now. And PsyKater, no it's not a big deal, just a simple oversight. The heroes split the waters of Loch Mess to walk on the lake floor to the island where the Eastern Sanctuary is located. A statue of Mother Danab stands tall over a sandy beach where the heroes rest. They then head back to the central Fields of Glory, to Gust Ridge. GUST RIDGE On the mountain bluff they are attacked creatures of the air and of the earth. PREPARE FOR BATTLE!!

So these Gloves of the Undead Assassin... do they net the wearer 5 regained HP or a +5 permanent health boost for every kill... Yes I've finally started to read Quest 69.

OOC: Good question Doc. Let me throw it now just to get this over with. I can make you Lucky again. Hybros frowns, but maintains his composure and fighting stance. Even he had to admit, the Red Assassin's skills were admirable. He would have to learn more about this proficient group of killers when this was over. "Get up, Nyx. Keep at her." Hybros revives Nyx and throws a Neutralizer. Battle Order: Hybros Hybros Docken Nyx

QM Note: Updated stats and battle to be posted when I get home from work tonight!

OOC: Woo, I won! If it's all the same to you, Sandy, I'd like to roleplay the Letter of Recommendation towards the end of my current quest. I can post it in here once that happens.

It's inspired by the board games, but I would say the RPG has branched off away from the LEGO board game setting. Though you're welcome to use those sets as inspiration! Advice to non-RPG player entrants: Check out the Rules and Discussion thread (for the game) and the very first three quests. It's how most of the players first got to know the world of Heroica.

I also love how your dice are only 2-sided: damage and special damage.

"We should take this round to attack. Time has run short." Hybros said plainly. "I have had just about enough of this so-called assassin. Too bad we will have to kill her again, eheh..." Hybros uses a Nostrum on both Docken and Nyx. Battle Order: Hybros Hybros Nyx Docken

Speaking of Ennon, can anyone tell me about the High and Low Kingdoms (and which quests have featured them)? I remember reading a few quests taking place there, but they're a blur to me now, and some I haven't read at all.

Skrall revives Namyrra and distracts the Enormous Fish before the final enemies meet their doom. Nur successfully restores himself to full health. THE BATTLE IS VICTORIOUS!

Hybros gives a Smelling Salts and a Mulled Wine to Nyx. "I will not be much use fighting her myself, eheh..." Battle Order: Hybros Hybros Nyx Nyx Docken Docken

OOC: I should be dealing twice the damage to Avery because the sword is darkness-elemental. Hybros, still coughing up blood from his own fall, uses a Phoenix Essence on Nyx. As he helps her up, he helps her drink a nostrum, hoping she would fare better than him in battle. Battle Order: Hybros Hybros Nyx Docken Docken

"This is not over, Red Assassin. You will fulfill your oath, I will make sure of it, eheh..." Hybros sputtered out blood with the last words as he found a blade buried deep within his torso. He fell over, unconscious, hoping the magic of a Phoenix Essence, time, or both, would save him. If he were to get up this round, he would continue attacking Avery. Battle Order: Docken Hybros Hybros Docken

I guess I'm misunderstanding the roll then, I suppose you mean damage equal to maximum ether and defense rather than the base ether/defense. I still think it would need a lot of work in order to become official (I'm aware that these are mostly just ideas, as well). On the other hand, I'm really liking this one. As the one who controlled Jun in Quest 50, I can say that this would be a major improvement to the Tao Warrior (no offense Sandy). I definitely think Riposte is more appropriate than Yin & Yang; it seemed like Jun was always losing health unnecessarily with rolls of "4", and when that roll did heal him it wasn't very useful. Dual Damage and Special Damage are fine though, to balance the class out. I did like the original Shield skill, however: it was the biggest asset of Tao Warrior because if successful we could take down a tough enemy really fast. I think the Shield-skill you assigned is a bit underwhelming, but other than that I'd say it's a really good class. I also really like Archmage and Priest, as well as the idea of Basic-Expert classes discussed a while ago. Archmage seems nearly perfect to me, except that the Shield-skill seems a little boring. In a battle with more than 18 enemies (not so unlikely these days) it would actually be weaker than Magic Burst. I'd suggest adding some sort of effect, or maybe have it restore ether. Priest seems really good to, though a few suggestions: - Change the name to High Priest - Limit the weapons to what a Cleric can use (assuming this is the Basic-Expert variant of Cleric) Otherwise, I really like Overheal (though perhaps it should cost more ether). Oh, and I have to agree about these: The Shield skill seems way too powerful, surpassing the Lucky-effect entirely. I'd suggest something like an AoE Overheal instead. I also agree about not needing Special Mirror, Special Guard would be more balanced IMO.

Hybros smirks at his allies accompanied by Lord Marsh. "Find anything new? It turns out that this waitress is a Red Assassin." He turned to Avery. "Then if that is the fate you resign to, so be it."

Inquisitor seems a bit unfocused. Its Shield skill is contradictory: strips the ether and defense of the enemy then the attack is calculated from ether and defense? Those multipliers would then be 0. Invigorate seems out of place for this class, but I do like the roll itself. I also like Special Retribution. Personally I think the class would be more powerful and interesting if it were focused on resisting and dealing elemental attacks (half damage or immune to Magic).
