Ellaria sighs. "It wasn't my intention to try to get into the building - I heard you loud and clear that we could get in any time. I was trying to see if I could weasel me and Nyx in as escorts or something like that. If we get hired to that position, we could move a little more freely inside and do some reconnaisance. But if that sounds like a bad idea to you, we'll just have to find another approach." Ellaria taps her lips in contemplation, then looks up. "Any way some of us could get up on that balcony, Purple?"

No, it doesn't. The gem only provides elemental immunities to shields.

The students look at Sorrow incredulously. "What's your problem, grampa? You can go back to whichever grave you got out of, this boy is outta here!" "You wait now, young mister..." But the boy really is gone, running down the corridor. "I told you, Mr. Sorrow, these are youngsters. They cannot be reasoned with, they'll learn their lesson in time." "T-that's putting us down as more ignorant as we a-a-actually are, Mrs. Eldritch. M-most of us hate th-this hierachy we have in here, b-bu-but it's a self-maintaining system. We h-have to stay among our k-k-kind, Foureyes and Fonzies alike, or be ostracized as d-d-deviants out of f-f-fear. W-we know our world is black and white, but g-grey is too scary of an option for us. We need to b-belong somewhere, or become invisible. T-that's just how it works. Who knows, maybe this deal with d-demons will bring us al c-closer together - in the end." Noel looks at his feet, seemingly embarrassed.

QM Note: Yes, two at the price of one. "Whoa! You did? Was my girl Melissa with them? If there's demons like that one skulking around, I need to find her pronto!" Mustard runs to the door, but stops suddenly. "Umm, any idea where she is?" "Yeah, we heard she..." "I wasn't asking you, freakshow!" "Fine, let her die then! The school's better off without her anyway." "You take that back!" Mustard raises his fist, ready to punch Noel.

Ellaria's jaw drops as she watches everyone split up to their own directions. "Hey, what happened to hatching up a plan...? Oh, it's useless with these fellows," she grumbles. She then decides to do some inquiry of her own. "Nyx, come with me. We must put our womanly charms to use." Ellaria pulls Nyx with her and approached the guards at the tavern's doors, putting on her naive wench charade. "Hey there, handsomes. We heard there's a party going on inside. Is there any way a couple of lonely girl such as us can get in? The gentlemen inside could surely use some entertainment and the two of us can entertain our buttocks off." Ellaria tries not to look at Nyx's expression.

Is there enough demand/use for this? There's no point in creating topics that just get forgotten and buried unused under all the other topics, after all... Like JimBee pointed out, there doesn't seem to have been much trouble taking care of trade between players before this.

Round Three of the Lavatory Battle: >Karie uses Military Grade Darkness Bomb - (Rusalka: no effect; Waterspouts A, C and E: 1 health-10 dmg=0 health) >Sorrow vs. Rusalka - Critical Lethal Hit/Critical Lethal Hit (Rusalka: 159 health-(89/2x2=89 dmg)=70 health) >Sorrow vs. Rusalka - Shield/Special Damage (Grim Reaper - Rusalka: no effect) >Thalion (Lightning) vs. Rusalka (twice) - Sleight of Hand/Sleight of Hand (Rusalka: confused; Thalion: -1 ether) >Erik vs. Rusalka - Hit (Rusalka: 70 health-(33/2x2=33 dmg)=37 health) >Amorith (Lightning) vs. Rusalka - Damage (Amorith: 26 health+9 SP-(36/2=18 dmg)=17 health) >Heckz (Lightning) vs. Rusalka - Spell (Rusalka: 37 health-(34x2=68 dmg)=0 health; Heckz: -1 ether) >Drucilla (Arc Lightning) vs. Rusalka >Nuitan heals Mustard >Noel uses Big Box on Rusalka >Sorsha does nothing All party members (including Mustard but excluding Thalion) - Poisoned by 1 (-1 dmg) Karie's bomb takes care of the remaining waterspouts while the others attack Rusalka en masse. The demon manages to hurt Amorith, but Heckz's spell finally takes it down. The poison damages everyone except Thalion once more before fading. THE BATTLE IS VICTORIOUS! Drucilla gains a fifth of a level, while Erik, Heckz, Karie, Sorrow and Thalion gain a third. Amorith and the students gain half of a level. The enemies drop the following loot: Spring Staff (WP:12, healing someone else through this staff also heals the user by the same amount; water-elemental staff) 2 Aquamarines (Enables water-elemental spells) 2 Potions (Restores 10 health to the target.) 2 Tonics (Restores 5 ether to the target.) 2 Remedies (Removes all negative effects from the target.)

QM Note: No, because his "Restoration"-trait allowed him to rest immediately. And no, Rusalka's passive damage doesn't ignore row or SP.

The Plunger can still kill the Waterspouts, just not damage them.

Yes, but so are many other items in different situations as well. Just imagine being faced with an enemy that is super-buffed, and you could ignore all of those effects. Well, now Mizuki can, at the cost of one artifact slot. I really got my creative juices flowing tonight, with all these new items popping out of my head. Just made up the weapon drop for Rusalka, as well.

QM Note: I take your combat-like actions as a sign that you want to fight. You could've just destroyed the sink with a spell. The heroes attempt casting spells at the sink, but the sentient water senses this and transforms into a liquid demon. With a wave of his hand, the demon makes the pipes around the lavatory burst, and enchanted spouts of water come gushing out of them. PREPARE FOR A BATTLE!

Yeah, you need to use Fenghuang Essence in advance to essentially be protected from getting knocked out once. Plus it has a cooler name.

~Fabian now stocks High Heels and Fighting Boots in his boutique!~

Phew! Ten letters left to write for the Tidings event. I should be able to get them done tomorrow, guys. Now I need to go add some new shoes to Fabian's store, like I promised many months ago.

"Murdigh Grogmesh, Mizuki! My enslaved brethren have almost all been liberated in Eubric. I have acquired some powerful allies to help spread the awareness that we of the green skin are not responsible for the misdoings of our ancestors. In return for your fine gifts, I would like to give you this vial of strong venom and a shield native to my kin. I hope they help you in your endeavors. Kukulkan" Deadly Venom (Use on a weapon to make it cause the poisoned by 10-effect on any enemy it hits for the duration of one battle, making the poisoned enemy lose 10 health each turn. Several venoms can be used to increase the effect.) Orcish Shield (SP:4, double if the wielder is a greenskin) "To Mizuki, Thank you for your compliments, I only do what Lothoros Eldar did to me back in the day - trained me from zero to hero. Without Heroica, I'd still be conning people in the alleyways of the Hovels. So you should thank Heroica for making what you are. Here is something for you in return for your gifts. ~The Copper Fox" Foxtail (User is not affected by the target's positive effects; backwear) "Dear Mizuki, Thank you for your letter. I cannot write myself, so I had this nice lady in the Guild called Victoria write this letter for me (Hi!). Sküld comes to visit me from time to time, but we are both busy with our jobs nowadays. I miss the nights when we played together at the House of the Dragon, just the two of us. Merry Grogmas to you too, here is a Neutralizer for you that I concocted myself. Hope it doesn't backfire. Shaun" Neutralizer (Removes all temporary effects from all allies and all opponents.) "Dear Jess, Yes, business has been good, but sometimes I wonder what else life has in store. I still think I'm young enough to find love, but hanging around with smelly alchemists in varying degrees of living every day tends to get one's hope in men down. To tell you the truth, the customers I get are not much better. Rich and handsome inheritors rarely find their way to my stall, unfortunately. Anyway, I hear Grogmas is the time to celebrate, so let us not dwell in my lack of lovelife any longer. Thank you for the wonderful diamond, maybe it will one day shine on my finger. Here is a special bomb for you in return. Joyous holidays, ~Portia" Baldur Bomb (Deals 100 light-elemental damage to all opponents when used.) "To Hybros, My friend, I do not hold you or your companions responsible for what happened in the Pagoda of Nine Elements at all. It was my own blind rage that caught the better of me. The months I spent captive by the Stars of Destiny taught me to look beyond the surface. Even people you consider your sworn enemies have their own motivations behind their actions. I never forgive my former master Kai Tsi for butchering my brotherhood, but I have begun to understand why he did it. In Xu, I got used to the supremacy of the Aoi, but after living here in Eubric, it has become apparent that my kin are no better than any other race in this world. We should indeed work together to improve the world we live in. Look past the personal feuds and ambitions, and strive for peace, not make war. That is why I have given up my blades and become a diplomat like my mother. I have been handling relations between Xu and Eubric in my mother's stead, ever since the assassination attempt that left her crippled. She is slowly recovering and learning to walk again on legs of steel, which were another one of Monsignor Legonardo's invention. That man must have been heaven-sent, I tell you, for all the good he has done for me and my family. Now, onto the matter of finding your people. You have been a great help to our family, so it would be rude for me to turn down your plea for help. We should arrange a meeting between you and Monsignor Legonardo sometime soon, I am sure he can provide you with whatever equipment you need to find your kindred. However, referring to what I wrote before,you should perish the thought of the Aoi being surpressed. My people have brought the endless war on themselves with their tyrannical government. Your people would do well to keep away from Xu, lest they want to become puppets of my kin.

OoC: Umm, did you know poisoning stacks nowadays? Poisoned by 15 is a powerful effect, since on consecutive hits the same target would be poisoned by 30, then 45, then 60, etc. I'm not complaining, I just don't know if you were aware of this.
