You can do it! Just host it without pictures for a while. As nice as the scenes are to look at, I don't think it's at all necessary to have a picture of the player's every step.

OoC: We should have full ether, having just rested. Also, I trust that a Rune-Enchant cannot make a weapon worse. Ellaria hands over the voucher. "In that case, I would like to get a rune-enchant on my Ignis Fatuus, free of charge." She also gives the smith some gold. "I'd also like to upgrade my crossbow to WP:10 for 190 gold, please." Ellaria is excited to see how the enchantment would turn out.

I don't remember what I've ruled in the past about this, but I usually pair my undead enemies with an immunity to sudden death just in case someone thinks of pulling a stunt like this.

QM Note: The lavatory is a small room, so I didn't see any point in splitting the party for that. Sorsha could've shouted her last line from the door, not actually stepping inside. As Erik arranges his equipment once again, Karie grabs the plunger.

OoC: Oh, I didn't realize Atramor gave the loot to Ellaria before now. Sorry! Ellaria gives each of her companions an extra 10 gold. Ellaria rummages through her bag and finds a spare ruby and a voucher for the smithy. "Oh, I forgot! I want to sell this ruby too. And this voucher for your shop, what is it good for?"

Ellaria's face goes red, but she manages to laugh it off. "Haha, thank you for the information, Master Sultan. It would have been awkward if we would have gone knocking the palace door and asking entry to a party which isn't even held there today! Anyway, I wish to conduct some business with you." Ellaria sells the following weapons: Obsidian Spear x7, Knife x5, Cutlass x2, Spear x2, Handaxe. She then splits the gold gained to the five of them. "Now we should have enough gold to splurge a little."

As Heckz begins to scrub the toilet's floor, spending 1 ether to do that, Thalion and Sorrow approach the last stall on the line, having spotted someone hiding inside. Upon the pair's inquiry, a boy with a greased-back hair jumps out of the stall. "Eeeey, I've heard of Heroica! You guys are cool!" The Fonzie boy looks around and spots the students in the party. "Bleh! Why are you hanging around with the freak, the geek and the amazon? That's so uncool!" "W-w-we're here to s-s-save you, M-Mustard." "Wazzat? Didn't hear you over all that st-st-stuttering." "BACK OFF, YOU BIG BULLY!" Just as Sorsha's eyes begin to flare up with rage, the pipes and drainage around the room begin to shake and hiss. Suddenly a spout of water bursts from the sink and the blue lights begin to flicker. A gurgling wail emanates through the gushing water. "There's something in the pipes, trying to come out!" What will the party do now?

~A new quest has been posted on the Quest Board (#101 by Kintobor)!~

Byblos sits in a dim candlelight, reading a letter he received from Anwyl Smokebeard. "Bah! I'm certainly not going to become an advocate in spreading the word of the Mythril Maiden, but at least I could add her to the list of deities most commonly worshipped in Eubric. That will have to suffice to that fake dwarf..." ~The list of deities has a new entry!~ MYTHRA, The Mythril Maiden The daughter of Orrik the Earth Father gave dwarves the gift of mythril in an ancient myth. Henceworth she has been worshipped by dwarven smiths and warriors as their benefactor. She is portrayed as a distinctively beardless female dwarf, which makes her homely in the eyes of the majority of her worshippers, but some dwarven women choose to shave their beards off as a homage to her.

QM Note: I take it you mean the first door on the left side of the West Wing corridor, looking from the Entrance Hall. "[Trust me, I am not going anywhere. I might be dead, but a powerful demon could still devour me for a snack. You should go now, before the demons get a whiff of living souls hiding up here.]" The party returns downstairs to the first floor of the West Wing, and Heckz leads them to a door of his choosing. Opening it, they come to another lavatory which isn't quite as nice as the one upstairs. Sorsha stops at the door. "BUT THIS IS THE BOY'S TOILET! DO I REALLY NEED TO COME IN?"

Ellaria approaches the dwarven smith. "Good morrow to you, Master Sultan! I have brought my troupe to see you, as I promised yesterday." Ellaria introduces everyone to Sultan. "We are on our way to visit your friend Macros in his palace, but we would like to see what wonders you offer before that."

CURRENT SIGN-UPS FOR QUEST#100: 1. Althior Emorith, Level 36 2/4 Necromancer (K-Nut) 2. Jon “Sarge” McEncy, Level 19 Black Knight (Pyrovisionary) 3. Avalanche, Level 13 1/2 Barbarian (Dragonfire) QM Note: The closing of the sign-ups have been pushed back to the 9th of May, but will be pushed back even further until I have enough players.

Welcome to the game, The Chosen Minifigure! Your sign-up looks good, except that you should start out with a weapon that has WP:3. Also, here's an avatar-sized picture of your character. Please copy and paste it to your statistics post.

I feel the same way as Kintobor and CMP: what would be the point? Don't new players deserve to experience same varied stories that you did when you started out? The start might be rougher nowadays, with the power gap between players being so wide, but the levelling curve means that new players usually quickly catch up if they're active.

"[He certainly did not fit the frame, so to speak. He looked like a country hillbilly with his overalls and wide-brimmed hat, but there was something about his eyes... They looked as if they burned with malice. Even if I'm not an expert, I'd say whoever controls the man, it seems to have taken him over completely.]" "[Those sound like the ones I saw, although I might add living pieces of armour and an instrumental demon to the list. Not to mention the deep darkness on the second floor of the East Wing - there is something malevolent dwelling in it.]" Amorith sees nothing but the same white light that can be seen through the windows. "[My apologies, but you need to be more in touch with the spirit world in order to see the Void. Your fragile mortal brains cannot process the ethereal flux, I'm afraid.]" "[Everyone still inside this building are in immediate danger, make no mistake of that. Time's a-wasting while you chat with silly old me up here. What comes to the demonic door, it guards the Atrium from all four facets, so maybe you need to open it from each direction at the same time?]" "[i only know for a fact that [b]Monsignor Fioretto[/b], the professor of the art of war, knows his way with the sword. As for the others... well, crises such as this can bring up surprising sides from people. The stranger looked like any commoner from a small village, save for the eyes.]"

Also, I updated the enemy types to list "Luminous enemies", which are interchangeable with "Holy enemies" in elemental attributes, but they are affected by Necromancer's raise. I made them for those cases when you want an enemy to be light-elemental but not exactly tied with any religion. So it's the same deal as with "Demons" and "Dark enemies".

I am actually featuring a bombcrafter in Quest#100, and if that get's good response, the crafter might find his way to the Marketplace. The main idea is that you could make stronger bombs by combining normal bombs. As for the *Immune to [Element]*, I will rule it as discussed:

Like I said, I am willing to enforce a rule that any enemy with a specified *Immune to [Element]* effect will never take damage from that element despite what it's type might be. It's the most logical answer to this problem. I think I've overlooked this issue because I don't think I've ever used that effect myself, and have always relied with just the types when designing enemies. I hear you in that the "change" might cause a change in how players build their inventory of weapons, but since not all QMs use the *Immune to [Element]* effect anyway, and the rest do it infrequently, I don't think the change is very drastic at all.

"[The pleasure is all mine, Miss Alderflask. It is always heartwarming to see such vibrant young women in daring-do situations. Well, that is if I still had a heart... What comes to your questions, the Academy has not been the same since I ran it. The students are spoiled, the discipline is lacking, the professors are unqualified doohickies...]" "Excuse me?!" "[Err, most of them are, at least. The current provost is doing as lousy of a job as all of my successors. Indeed, I shall not pass on until I see this institute in capable hands. What comes to the Atrium, though, I believe it was chosen since it is in the center of this Academy, so a spell to move this place through a rift in time and space would probably be most efficient if done from there. You really need to get there and stop the stranger who abducted this school before everyone inside has lost their souls. However, I believe the strange man is in cahoots with a powerful force who is pulling the strings. A mere mortal could not control a league of powerful demons to do his bidding. Of course defeating the man and whoever is behind him might mean the school will get stuck in the Void forever or blow up to smithereens or transform into a lollipop for all I know. I am not an expert in interdimensional magic, you see. Do you have any more questions I could help you with?]"

"The Academy of Enlightenment is funded by the wealthy families of Eubric, so they practically compete to give us gifts. The Tritech Company and the Guild of Invision even collaborated to give the Student's Lounge an Automedic, which is practically an automated potion seller. The lounge is on the first floor of the East Wing, by the way, we passed it when we went to the library." "Darling, don't you get it? You get to choose what you wish for after you fulfill my wish. I still have to consider what else to wish from you, so let's go one wish at a time, alrighty? Oh, and if you marry me, we will be bound together for life. You wouldn't have to move in with me to the lamp, though. You wouldn't fit there in any case, hehehe." After Nuitan has healed Heckz and taken the shirt from Thalion, the party moves up the stairs and enter the observatorium. It is empty save for a gigantic telescope in the middle of the room. Before the party's eyes, a ghost of an elderly man appears on the stool in front of the telescope, gazing into it. "[My, things are really looking bad out there]", the ghost mutters in a monotonous voice. He then looks at the party. "[Ah, you found my little hiding place. I believe our conversation was cut off earlier, Miss Alderflask.]" How will the party react?

"Good to see everyone made it back safely. I got involved with healing plague-ridden orphans, which was right up my alley. Alright, power nap time everyone! We will head to the smithy after that." Ellaria orders everyone to rest to recover their health, before leading them out to the Silver Anvil.

What you suggest would be a total abandonment of the elemental system, then, with heroes being able to damage all enemies (except undead) with every weapon. So why have different types or elements to begin with? Can't every enemy just be called "monster" and if you hit it you win? Yeah, that's right - because battles should have things like challenge and variation in them. That's why.

Together with Karie and Thalion, Sorrow successfully reassembles the model of the solar system. But nothing seems to happen. "S-s-sorry, if I may... You need to do t-th-this." Nuitan gives each globe a gentle push, and the whole contraption begins to whizz and whirl. The strange wall on the opposite side of the Demon Door opens to reveal a staircase. "The Tritech Company gave this system to the Academy some years ago. It is a nice gimmick to use on the very first astronomy class, since that staircase leads to the Observatory Tower." "Wonder whose going to teach astronomy now that Polaris is gone... Nobody half as hot, I bet", Noel sighs. Heckz and Noel carry the body of Professor Polaris to the box and send her away with the gold Heckz returned. "YOU'RE WELCOME TO TRY." "You summoned, darling? Have you made up your mind yet?" "YOU ARE MISTAKING ME AS SOMEONE WHO CARES ABOUT YOUR FATE. YOU'LL GET NOTHING OUT OF ME."

Looking back on the actual rule page about elements, it lists the element as being "effective against" and "doesn't affect" towards enemy types, so this is just a mix-up of terms, it seems. So the general consensus seems to be that if an enemy specifically has the *immune against [element]* -effect, then the elemental modifiers that concern the enemy's type do not matter. It complicates the way things are calculated somewhat, but I can live with that. Should I add this to the FAQ, then?

No, that's weak against. An enemy that would be strong against an element would only take half damage from an element... Again, heroes do not have elemental weaknesses, enemies do. Weapons with multiple elements allows heroes to surpass enemies' elemental immunities, that's just how this game rolls. Unless you want to suggest a complete overhaul of the elemental system, then you just have to live with this phenomenon.
