QM Note: petrified heroes will get experience at the end of the battle, since the effect vanishes then. Only heroes that have been knocked out or have fled do not gain experience.

Dr. Jekyll looks great, glad to have him included in the monster roster. It's also great to have the flask in another color. The trans-lime flask is getting quite common... Now that the list has some credibility behind it, I have to say I'm looking forward to the medieval figs (knight and maiden) as well as the fortune teller, the roman emperor and the cyclops. It's intriguing to see how they've made the starlet look... Also good to see that there's apparently at least five female figs in the series again.

I don't mind quest-specific bombs that are more powerful than the current ones, but bombs were designed with low-level players in mind. Who's to say when we will get our next batch of "Level 1"'s in? Uh-oh... When the battle is done, it is done. You cannot revive enemies after a battle just to farm items or gold from them.

QM Note: I have to say this, because it's apparently not clear yet: Sküld's ability is to "arc heal", meaning that she will heal either all heroes or all enemies. She cannot concentrate her healing on a single target like Clerics can. That's why there is no need to specify a single target for her if she arc heals.

Ellaria was slowly getting used to being bossed around by the older knight. She still didn't like the drunkard, but she realized that the only way to survive these battles was to work together. And an efficient team always needed a leader. "So be it", Ellaria quipped and turned her attention to Nyx, attempting to nurture her from the back row.

I think it's obvious that since both the original "attack" and the "counter" are done with the Healing Staff, both strikes will heal their target - which in this case is Nyx herself on both accounts. So by rolling a COUNTER, she actually heals herself twice. That's exactly why Elphaba no longer sells those damned staves. I don't have any recollection of saying that, sorry. Let me check the FAQ... Nope, nothing there about it. Why would anyone want to revive an enemy? If the QM approves it, it's possible, but the enemy will come back with full health. To be precise, Sentinel protects from physical damage. It does not apply to elemental damage, negative effects or other special moves that do not cause direct damage - Mephisto's "Gluttony" included. Gluttony doesn't knock out the hero, it removes the hero from the battle (as when fleeing, but without the possibility of continuing the quest if the battle fails).

QM Note: Damn it, I mistakenly checked Cinna's level instead of Namyrra's! Your avatars have such similar color schemes nowadays. Your effects do not affect your summons, though. I'll go and fix the results...

Immediately after that, Namyrra summons her Battle Angel that immediately bursts, showering all enemies with light-elemental rays that cause 40 damage to each. The strike removes the skeleton mage, the spectre and the revenant nobility out of the equation. Guts takes out the other zombie. Hybros decides that he doesn't have quite enough gold yet, so he reaps some more. Erik finally hits something, but the Lich is impervious to his earth-elemental weapon. The Lichen Warlord sends the ghosts of war to haunt De'kra. Christopher Daggerfall moves into a sentinel-position, protecting everyone from damage for the next round. Sarick creates a magic burst and Mizuki defeats the Lichen Warlord with the Sylph Shuriken. Sküld shows her pure heart, that removes the ghosts haunting De'kra and releases Thalion from his stone prison. All standing party members become blessed by Fabula Sibylla. Cinna spends her precious phoenix incense to bring back all the fallen allies back to their senses. Four enemies are left, while the whole party is active once again.

"I'm sorry, Atramor, I will attempt again..." Ellaria apologizes, and tries to nurture Atramor again from the back row.

Don't forget that we have these figs to go with the Galaxy Squad members: They might not be official members, but they do fit aesthetically.

"Hmpf!" Ellaria slips out in frustration as she sees Atramor's energies being drained out right after she made him drink one of her precious elixirs. "Sorry, Atramor, but I'll try to heal you in the traditional way next. That way there's a chance we can get Rufindel with us as well." Ellaria attempts to nurture Atramor from the back row.

Like Endgame said, if a Smoke Bomb is used, the entire party has to flee. But if the QM allows it, a battle can be restarted after the party has recovered.

So you only allow sexuality in a toy if it's your sexuality. Got it. You can't argue the fact that the hippie's eyes are crossed. It's a humorous allusion to the hippie way of life - which involved drugs and free sex, among others. Kids wouldn't know anything about it, but it gives us adults a few chuckles. If we get the joke, that is. I accept your differing opinion, but I don't have to respect it. I will argue that LEGO (and other toys) already portrays numerous aspects of adult life that children won't normally experience in their own everyday life (driving, war, crime, marriage, family, housekeeping, firefighting... you name it!). Playing with toys is how children learn about these things. If children are only offered toys where men are doctors and women are nurses, that's the way they will think it has to be. The same applies to relationships: if all children see in toys and media are heteronormative families, they will think that is the only way of life. By the way, I'm a kindergarten teacher by profession, so I happen to know quite a deal about the importance of playing. Despite being gay, I don't teach the children at the day care center to be "queer", but I do teach them about different walks of life, about tolerance and about respect. We're discussing whether there should be a collectable minifig that breaks the norm of what's seen as "socially acceptable" for a man (or a woman). It's a tender issue that is sure to rouse opinions, but why couldn't we have a civilized conversation about it, despite our differing opinions?

Being gay is more than just what happens between the sheets. It can also be seen as a way of life. Besides, there are blatantly heterosexual minifigs out there (such as the wedding couples and the parents), why aren't they ruining your hobby? I actually don't see a male hairstylist as that farfetched of an idea... Of course TLG wouldn't market it as a GAY minifig, but there can be allusions. Just like with the hippie and his crossed eyes. Honestly, even a stereotypical "gay" or "lesbian" minifig would be perfectly okay with me if only to put a dent on the heteronormative mould that LEGO has concerning the minifigs. But that's my own queer opinion.

If I may be honest, the problem with those names are that they would have to be copy&pasted into a post every time, unless there was a nickname to use in common talk. You asked earlier where to post your character information. You need to post your statistics (power, health, inventory etc.) to the Hero Statistics topic and introduce your character (meaning you need to make a post as the character) in the Heroica Hall topic.

Wailing horribly, she crumbles into a pile of bones. At the same time, Shaun is released from the shackles of Sycamore's spell, and he runs from the battle. The two skeletons swiftly follow their mistress' destiny, and Benji is able to assassinate Arioch the demon. Both the heroes and the remaining undead receive damage.

Dammit... I better fix the description. TLG hasn't contacted me yet.

"Oh, right! These elixirs remove all negative effects as well! Here you go, Atramor!" Ellaria uses an elixir on the shaman from the back row.

QM Note: Sorry, it's too late for me to tally the results today. It always takes me about an hour to do so with this many players. You'll just have to wait for tomorrow.

Ellaria grunts. "I saw this coming, I so did! Atramor, don't you worry, I will nurture you so that those nasty effects will go away." She's sure to stay in the back row so that the gruesome statues wouldn't get her.

Yes, you understood it right.
