Thank you, that'd be a big help. I'll PM you details.

Thanks.

To the quests that I'm currently involved in: I'll be visiting Costa Rica for the next month starting Monday. Internet will be limited and my participation will more than likely be irregular - still able to post, just maybe not every day. Sorry if I hold anything up, I will try my best to keep up with things. This weekend will also be pretty busy, and I'll probably need some time to adjust once I get there. 151, I had planned to have finished the quest by now. We missed that mark by a few weeks but we are definitely in the last phase of the quest - just a little more dialog and a battle are all that are left. Again, I will do my very best to not slow things down and still provide the full experience for you guys! That being said I would really appreciate it if anyone out there would be able to help out with running a battle in 151! Let me know if you're able.

Jinnipher repeats.

Hybros sighed and sat on the cold floor. "Trapped again. Monk, why do you not try your skills again on these bars?" He began picking at his Raw Meat, rather disgusted by the food. He washed it down with some Mead, although the flavor to him wasn't much better. He also slotted another Nostrum into his Hollow Dagger. "So you are already acquainted. I am Hybros, though I am afraid a demon hunter will not do us much good in this cage," the imp introduced himself. "So what do you make of all this? The portal in the sky is unlike any I have seen before."

The party heads back to the Sluice. The bar was pretty much the same way they left it, with perhaps a few more drinks littering the tables. What would the heroes do?

So what happens when an artisan wears two medals of glory?

Hunkan successfully takes a few chunks of the green substance. It doesn't affect him the way it affects Ezeran, but it glows slightly in the dim light provided by the mage's flame. Digging into the rocky earth yields the same results: patches of the green mineral are revealed and Ezeran feels its weakening effect. His flame began to die out. He would need to expend more ether to keep it lit. Old Shovel - Tool. Has a 1/6 chance to break with each use. Rusty Pickaxe - Tool. Has a 1/3 chance to break after each use. With the direwolves defeated and the discovery of the strange mineral, it would appear that the heroes' venture into the drill site was complete. What would the party do next?

Hybros shrugged as he collected his weapons and sheathed them. "My guess is that they came from the big hole in the sky and the archdemon has made this castle his lair. It seems to me that we can either explore this castle some more and search for more demons or clues, or perhaps we can return this baby to the people in the temple. It would certainly be a burden off our shoulders." The imp glanced at the baby with mild curiosity. Or perhaps a little bit of fear or disgust. "Byblos, you seem to be doing just fine with the child, heheh."

I'm not complaining about the awesome weapon and artifact drops.

OOC: Hybros directed his second attack at Haures so he should be defeated, and Foras should not be slowed or sealed. Also I think you forgot to subtract health from Sabnock. Hybros attacks himself with the Sword of Ancestral Hatred and Uvall with the Heavy Flail in the back row. If successful, he strikes Uvall again with Zoot's Reaper and the Hollow Dagger in the front row, otherwise repeats.

Jinnipher peers through the portal, but appears unimpressed. "You know you've lost and you're only trying to prove to yourself what you've accomplished. For an archangel you're mighty pathetic. Here's a thought to keep you company while that venom courses through your veins: your plan will never succeed. We are going to beat you, and we will beat Immortalis. Goodbye, Charon." The moon elf strikes again in the back row. Jinnipher growls over to Arthur. "We're not out of the woods yet. He can still redirect your attacks. If you hit me with one of those spears I'll shove it so far up your megablocks that even a dwarf wouldn't be able to dig it out."

Ezeran's flame nearly dies out as he almost comes into direct contact with the substance.

Ezeran again feels the dampening effect of... whatever was causing it in the cavern, and spends 2 ether providing illumination with his ruby. Maybe it had something to do with the shiny green patches of what appeared be some sort of mineral on the walls, floor and ceiling. As Ezeran pokes around with his pickaxe more of the green stuff was revealed as pieces of dirt and rock are chipped away. The mage could definitely feel his magic being blocked as he moved closer to the wall, and the rest of the party could see that the flame dimmed. A few cages, the chains, and some leftover bones (identifiable as those from a cow, to the heroes' relief) sat near the bloodied direwolf bodies. A few pickaxes and shovels were leaned up against the wall and haphazardly laying on the ground. The wolves were most definitely dead.

OOC: You can also find text versions of all the classes on the Wiki. I've found it pretty helpful when the images aren't loading or when I'm on mobile. "Atramor, perhaps you could take Marax the Trickster and Sabnock. Those daggers are quite impressive, heheh..."

The Grendel pauses before admitting defeat. <"We only do what we were told!

"Well done, everyone. Let us win a strong finish. Byblos, can you try to seal the mouth of the hungry-looking one?" Hybros attacks Focalor in the front row with both the Sword of Ancestral Hatred and Iustitia. If successful he repeats the attack on Haures the Reaver.

And he virtually never runs out thanks to perma-transcended. It's quite the build.

Round 5 of Battle of the Beasts: Ellaria vs. Grendel - Critical Hit (20x2 +34 x2 = 148 dmg) >Petaldan vs. Grendel - Special Damage (Pack Attack: 60/2 -9 =21 dmg to Petaldan; 30/2 =15 dmg to Hunkan, KO'd) >Hunkan KO'd >Ezeran vs. Grendel - Special Damage SHIELD (Magic Burst: 24 x2 /2 = 24 fire dmg to Grendel and Alpha, Alpha KO'd, -2 ether) Goliath vs. Grendel - Extra Critical Hit (16 dmg) >Kid vs. Grendel - Hit (8 dmg) Ellaria starts off with another terrific hit with her hammer, but it's not enough to stop the remaining foes from taking revenge. The grendel and alpha attack in unison, the former nearly knocking out Petaldan and the latter taking down Hunkan. Ezeran quickly responds with a Magic Burst of fire. Although the attack is weakened by some strange force in the air, it's enough to down the Alpha, leaving the Grendel vulnerable for attacks from Goliath and Kid. Five heroes remain against the final enemy. Weather: Ethereal Dampening (halves the strength of any magical attacks or healing) Enemies: Grendel *Immune to negative effects* *Encouraged* Level 30 Ancient/Icy Health: 66/528 Special I: Pack Attack – Makes all Direwolves in the battle attack with it in unison. Grendel attacks the target with an ice-elemental attack while each Direwolf (including the Alpha) take turns attacking down the battle order until all have attacked. Special II: Lone Wolf – Grants encouraged- and hastened-effects to self. Used only if there are no Direwolves left in the battle.

Dual-striking weapons can either be directed to attack the same enemy twice or the target enemy and the one below it in order of enemy listing. You can't choose any enemy to receive the second strike.

"Well it doesn't work on this one, apparently. Maybe he has better taste than you." She lifted a lock with some disgust. "So are we just going keep holding Karie up with potions and remedies? And in case you didn't notice our giant fell over... I don't see why we shouldn't pile on Charon to inflict as much damage as possible right now. I can only shield his attacks for so long."

OOC: I think you forgot about poison/enamor again. Also why did everyone get two turns? At the end of last round Karie only had 4 ether. Jinnipher regained her cool a little bit after Gabriel got up. "Just try to stay on your feet a little more, yeah? Let's teach this bird a lesson." She hoists her shield and charges at Charon from the front row.

I would welcome a quest with full-blown MOCs with open arms! We already have quite a few talented builders in Heroica and it's always a treat having their creations on quests (speaking of which I miss BrickDoctor and Etzel...). There is also this thread which I think has been forgotten about. Some really awesome and inspirational builds there! We should have that contest again. You an definitely have your sets ready before you start the quest. I've done it in the past and find it's been the easiest way. The only disadvantage is that you can't change anything if you let your heroes go off of the "script" a bit more than usual.

QM Note: I forgot to account for Ezeran's luckiness last round. I rolled again and it was a Miss as well. Round 4 of Battle of the Beasts: Ellaria throws Hot n' Cold Bomb (30 dmg to Grendel, 60 to Alpha, 60 to Direwolves A and B, KO'd, Direwolves D and E join the battle) Ellaria vs. Grendel - Critical Hit (20x2 +34 x2 = 148 dmg) Petaldan vs. Grendel - Hit (16 dmg, Flood triggered! 16 water dmg to all enemies, slowed) Hunkan vs. Alpha Direwolf - Damage (Sentinel: 0 dmg) Ezeran vs. Grendel - Damage Hit (22 x2 = 44 dmg) Goliath vs. Alpha Direwolf - SHIELD (Frenzy: 6 dmg and poisoned-3 to all enemies) Kid tries Diplomacy - Failure Alpha Direwolf Poisoned-6 Direwolf D Poisoned-3, KO Direwolf E Poisoned-3, KO Ellaria starts the round off with a bang, her Hot'n'Cold bomb dealing massive damage to the direwolves. She fails to account for their pack nature however, and two more direwolves appear from seemingly nowhere to take their fallen brothers' place. She makes up for it with a massive hit on the Grendel, and Petaldan follows up with a solid hit of his own. The powers of his Flood Fork TM activate and slow up all of the enemies. Ezeran whacks the Grendel with his staff, which is oddly effective. Goliath goes into a frenzy, dropping the two newcomers down to low health and poisoning them just enough to make sure they're gone for good by the end of the round. Kid tries his hand at diplomacy, but as he is untrained in the art it falls short. Perhaps training in the ways of a Warden would help him achieve diplomacy with animals. The remaining direwolves simply continue to bark and growl at him, seemingly berserk. He can pick up a few words, though. <"Food! ... Starving! ... Master! ... Blood!..."> A healthy party faces off against two enemies. Enemies: Grendel *Immune to negative effects* *Encouraged* Level 30 Ancient/Icy Health: 262/528 Special I: Pack Attack – Makes all Direwolves in the battle attack with it in unison.

I'm getting it for Flickr-hosted images as well... Nope, Sandy is even hosting Hybros' avatar picture. Update: They're back for me now and Andras' picture is finally normal. Ever wonder what happens when a Marauder targets himself and an enemy in the same turn?
