I will include that every round from now on.

Strivvi II: Strive Harder (for Robots).

Strivvi II: Never Forget. Just wait like two weeks. I think we're almost done with 91 (Kint, not rushing you, that's just the general feeling I've been getting from what you've been saying!) and then all the pieces will be in place.

OoC: Power is added to level - still off, but not by how much you thought. There should be only seven, sorry, copy and paste error!

"Of course I'm alright, my dear Monk. A little tomfoolery never hurt anyone, and clearly that's what that was." She shrugs and smiles. "They hardly put up a fight." She makes her way over to the two fallen soldiers and murmurs some words as she closes their eyes. "I will never understand the Gods outside of Dastan. They make mortals do such silly silly things. Now, shall we leave these hovels of yours and make our way forward?" U'Voros accepts the cloak, but shakes his hands frantically when offered the Jester's Hat. "I am not a fool, Arthur! Do not make me dress as a fool as I am not one! Humph!" The heroes make their way back through the main gate, this time only getting a strange look from the guards there. As they near the ocean and the docks the wind begins to blow - cool, but refreshing. "So tell me, heroes, what have you seen since I saw you last. Any great wonders? Any new lands?"

OoC: I'm stupid. Sisco probably didn't post an action because Jess is hanging on for dear life. Cliffside Combat Round One Hoke v. Harpy B - Critical Hit (([4+4*2]+29+2+2)*2=98 Damage) Tesni v.

OoC: I'd like to run the round! Could someone post a Battle Order/Action for Jess/Hoke? Preferably MDM, but I want to run the round before I pass out in ~3 hours.

OoC: Yup, lucky and autorolling would be great! I'll attack from the front once I'm healed!

Boomingham heals himself from the back row, staying as silent as his foe. Same Battle Order

"I'll do it," grunts Mint, but it seems unlikely Hoke will get anything better out of the taciturn man.

"I have no love for the Paladins," General Mint grunts as he stares off the cliff towards Nerwen, "but I will help her up, and the weaker one afterwards."

OoC: Sorry for the long wait, all! I didn't realize two days had passed. You have permission to poke me if 24 hours pass and I fail to post! I am in school, so it may not always be perfect, but I'll always try my best! Order Imperial Trail by Combat Round Three >Pretzel v. Abel - Hit (([6+26]*2)-7=51) >U'Voros does nothing Tarn v. Abel - Critical Hit/Steal (([13*2]+25)-7=95, KO) Arthur v. Abel - Enchantment/Special Damage Pretzel and Tarn close in on their final foe, who after two harsh hits is dropped to his knees. "It looks like the Lord of Light has chosen to share our Orders secrets with the world," Abel sputters out, his mouth dripping blood, his hand pressed to his side. He glances at his fallen brethren. "One banner, one lord, one country. Long live the Order Imperial. But, you know, I don't think my service is quite done." Abel heaves himself up and tosses the smoke bomb! When the smoke clears... Abel is gone. In a neat pile, however, are the things that he must have been carrying. A sort of offer, perhaps?

I will allow a few more hours for actions, as I didn't specify everything. Will fix Nerwen's SP right now! And roll for that nifty seal I made up but will also probably always forget! Yes, hanging heroes will get an action. AoE shields WILL do damage to foes on all sides.

As Benji roars, the Harpies scatter, and it seems for a second that the heroes have fended them off... But then... out of the sky comes racing shadows, ramming into the heroes, nudging them towards the edge. Both Nerwen and Jess are hit too hard, and both end up clinging to the edge of the cliff. Hamilton too is rammed backwards, falling into the troops of the Four Boulders Kingdom. They are quickly surrounded by an angry pack of harpies, shrieking and clawing. The heroes turn to help them, but find their path blocked in every direction. General Mint cries out. "Best way to help them is to slay as many of these beasts as we can! Re-establsh a perimeter - if we can hack through on one side maybe our ranged combatants will have better luck."

At the end of the round, one will join one of the random sides. Those who have been knocked over the edge much be helped back up. This will cost a turn. Harpies at the Cliff prevent a back-row. If you kill all cliff harpies, you may have a back-row. Until then, there is no back-row. Harpies to the South prevent Hamilton from fighting alongside you. If you kill those Harpies, you get back Hamilton.

Okay, so, round is fixed. Arthur is doomed and his negative effects removed (Abel wasn't stunned as he is immune to negative effects). But he's pretty near downed. I'll give everyone a few hours to fix up their actions if they so choose. Sorry for the confusion.

Kintober, take as much time as you need. I'm sorry for your loss.

OoC: Oh, crap, I had him attack with the Great Blade because that's what's listed in his inventory as a weapon. I will fix the round in a bit, but they will both have a ton more health (I think Cicero will probably still be dead, not sure though). Give me a bit. From here on in, even if you're just following what's listed, posting your specific action (especially if using a weapon that's not your primary) would be helpful!

Pretzel and U'Voros knock Cicero's socks off before Tarn rushes forward and drives his blade through him. Tarn continues his attack, since he's there, you know, and deals devastating blows to their other two enemies, dropping Daniel as well. Only Arthur continues to have just about the worst luck possible (actually the worst luck possible) as Abel charges at him and a flash of light appears, rendering Arthur into a strange woozy state.

The harpies hop and flutter around so much as they advance slowly that Benji is unable to keep them exactly straight. <Hissssssssssssssssss,> growls one. <Are these morsels?> asks another. <Stand aside, creature. Or join us in the feast. We know that you hunger for their flesh too, though you pretend to be one of them.> <Our sisters are hungry.> <Are they morsels? Do they taste good? They look warm and red.> Another screech draws Benji and the heroes' attention. Behind them the harpies have also crept up... five from this direction. <Our sisters are hungry.> <What say you, beast? Do we feast on them and you, or only them?>

"My dear, I hate to be the one to tell you, but with that nasty bow of his he'll be hitting you just as hard no matter where you are."

"Ah, poor fellow, he was my favorite of the bunch. No one touch Yeto, he can't stand much longer. Might as well patch myself up. Barty, lend a hand, would you?" Boomingham hops to the backrow and begins to heal himself. Battle Order Boomingham Hybros Hybros Dek'ra Ellaria

OoC: If Ellaria's healing fails, Hybros drinks a grand potion from the back row and then attacks Itsuki from the back row. If it succeeds he attacks Itsuki and then Eddy, both from the back row. Both attacks with his sword.

"Trouble is that someone has to teach them if we're tasty or not." Mint unsheaths his sword, but keeps his eyes forward. Hamilton follows suit, that it clanks and clatters at it comes out of his sheath - his hand is shaking too much. The clatter of stones draws the heroes' attention, and they turn to see a few Harpies slinking and hopping behind them, giving little bursts of flight as they follow at a safe distance. One of them shrieks upon being spotted, and they all stop short, but then continue at a slightly further distance once the heroes continue to move. Some shapes dart by, passing over the river to their right. Three of the swift shadows land on the path in front of them, and three harpies crouch in the heroes' path. What will they do?

I love Heckz. He is really perfect - he can play a quest well, can interact with tons of characters, and he's always fun to watch. He's got a quirk, and while it is a sizable part of his personality it isn't the only thing he ever talks about: he's obsessed with looks but we know that he is friendly, easily disgusted, petty, etc. I think that he's a great character, and I hope to host him eventually or quest alongside him.
