"Right you are, Ogre. Even while drinking, I think I'll lead the charge." Boomingham stands in the front of the group. Battle Order Boomingham Atramor Nyx Skrall Lorenzo Bob Mac Whales Ignacio Christian Jacob Rufindel Ellaria

It varies. I think WBD does it differently, as does Scuba apparently. There has never been a hard and fast rule on this either, each QM does it differently, which is a-okay with me, as long as the QM is consistent. I do it your way, Doc, as that's the way that makes most sense to me, but to each their own.

Boomingham roars. "Bloody elements. What were the chances of none of our tactics working. Ah well, happens to the best of us. Besides, now I get to hack these bastards to bits personally. We best get a chance to shop in Strivvian. This trips making me drink everything I own. Lorenzo, take on the Slaver Orc A from the front row, would you? Bob, you take on his friend, Slaver B, same row. Christian, down that Soma of your's, the less time we spend healing, the better. Mac, if you'd take on Bosun for us, I'd appreciate it greatly. The rest of you, pick your marks, and light 'em up. Leave that rat to come to me, I can handle him with only one hand." Boominham reaches into his pockets with his sword hand and extracts a Nostrum. He uncorks it with his mouth and then clamps the lips of the bottle in his teeth and downs it, holding his sword and shield forward. He flicks his head, releases the bottle, and it smashes against the deck of the ship. His eyes blaze fire and he laughs uproariously. He yells into the salty sea air. "Have at you, Orcs! I killed your ancestors two hundred and fifty years ago, will kill you now, and would have killed your children two hundred fifty years into the future if you had survived to have any! I am Lord Lawrence Boomingham of the Dead Kingdom! King of the Desert, Slayer of the Bluehood, Reaper of Orcs! Let us do battle!"

Round Six Angel Battle Cronk v. Aura B - Special Damage (Blinded) (No Special Guard) Tesni v. Angel - Special Damage (Sealed and Cursed) Alexis v. Aura A - Critical Hit (((([11x2]+22)x2)-4=84) (1 ether) Arthur uses Scroll of Fragility on Aura B - Failure (Does this cost ether? No, right?) Alexis v. Aura A - Damage ([32/2]-3=13) (No Confusion) Sasha v. Aura A - Shield (0) (31-4=27) (31-4=27) Haldor v. Aura B - Critical Hit ([8x2]+19=35) Others Aura A - Cursed (-3 max. health) The battle rages. Cronk and Tesni both charge in, and both stumble back as they are hit with bursts of lights that make their skulls feel ready to split. Alexis is able to fire off one spell of darkness before she to is caught square in the chest with a burst of light. Arthur watches as his teammates stumble around, blinded, and the constant flashes of light blur his vision and make it impossible to read from the scroll in front of him. Sasha hacks her way through the opponents, and Haldor cuts through one of the Aura' with his gloves. The party is limping, but holding together.

BAWK! Alright... well, we may appear very close to screwed. But in all honesty, we're not. Assuming that there are four cultists left (I'm assuming that there were 5 to begin with and 1 person was converted, but that's just guess-work), we have about a 50-50 chance of voting one off today. And bear in mind, we really need to. Because there are nine of us, and one of us is a SK. That means there are four and four... again, assuming the numbers I have in my head are correct. I'll start with an accusation! One of my very own. Mindy, you always complain that I don't do this, so I hope you're proud of me! BAWK! Mindy, I suspect you of being a cultist! And also super sexy. But also a cultist. You continue to ride other people, including me, but you never push too hard, and vote with bandwagons. I am going to pull a classic "I'm figuring things out behind closed doors" or rather "through these parrot messages I'm carrying around", and will hopefully have more for you all later. I expect NO ONE to be quiet today. We need all hands on deck. Share everything you think could help us.

Sandy had me change the wording from hastened to act twice to avoid confusion because hastened is a permanent effect. I'd say YES it does stack, but, as always, Sandy gets the final call. Also, future warning to my Quest 40ers. Mondays are my shit day. Start classes at 11, end at 11, with only a few breaks in-between. If it makes you feel any better, I don't get to eat dinner until after that block. So... for future reference, Monday probably aren't happening for me from now on. Even so, I think this quest will be over... in about a week and a half, maybe nearly two weeks, so you'll only have to deal with this once more. I'll update about mid-day tomorrow, thanks for your patience.

Round Five Angel Battle Cronk v. Angel - Meditate (1 ether gained) Tesni v. Angel - Critical Hit (([14x3]+25)x2=134/10=13 ether) Arthur v. Aura B - Hit ([23x2]-4=42) (1 ether) Alexis v. Angel - Special Damage (No Effect - Angel) Sasha v. Angel - Critical Hit ([14x3]+17=59/10=5) Alexis v. Aura A - Critical Hit (([11x2]+22)-4=40) Haldor heals Tesni - Heal Less (19 health restored) (1 ether) Others Aura A - Cursed (-3 max. health) Tesni - Cursed (-3 max. health) The battle continues. Cronk meditates, feeling safe behind his angel, and Tesni and Sasha both land successful hits on the Angel, who appears to be finally out of healing might. Arthur and Alexis follow up by attacking both Auras, and Haldor heals Tesni up to the best she can be, though she still feels strangely sickly. The Angel, now depleted of it's magic, bursts into light. The heroes cleverly avert their eyes this time, but when the light fade, the Angel seems to tower a little bit over all of them, with it's neck above the tops of their heads.

Boomingham is strategical up to only a certain point. He really wants to see some boats burn.

"When you see a problem, you burn it out. Be ready to quench the fire if needed, but their boats will burn. Nyx, Skrall, whenever you two are ready, we are going into combat!"

"Glad to hear that you'll be staying near at hand, Ogre. I much prefer you where I can see you. As for a warning shot... why bother? Slavers deserve no warning. Their warning came when they took up their profession." There is a flash of light next to the Paladin that only he and Skrall see. It fades away just as quickly as it appeared. "Bloody ocean. I thought it was deserts that were supposed to make you see things. You may fire when Nyx does. Wait for her signal. Thank you for serving well, Ogre." Boomingham nods curtly to Skrall before turning to Nyx. "I thought this might appeal to you, m'lady. I'm ready whenever you are. Keep that aquamarine at the ready - if they tether their flaming boats to our's, you must put them out immediately. I predict I shall one day go down in a blaze of glory. I'd prefer if that day wasn't today."

Sorry WBD. I love that this quest let's me play up the TWO traits of Boomingham I haven't really gotten to touch on yet. His assholeness towards Orcs and Ogres, and his tactical mind as a general. He's a funny and actually noble person in a lot of ways, and a lot of quests have highlighted that... and only that. I'm so glad to let some other traits shine through now.

Boomingham laughs in the Ogre's face. "No, Ogre, you will not be swimming over to them and helping them board this boat. There is a little game I like to play called tactics, and allowing them onto this boat unscathed with an accomplice does not figure well into that game. The best battles are the ones where there is zero chance of losing an ally's life. We set them aflame before they can touch us, and cut them down when the survivors try to board. It will be quick and efficient and hardly a battle."

This can't be any surprise, but :wub: :wub: for Hincks. I'd say that my greatest accomplishment so far in this game was staying alive long enough to be featured in that video. Pancho may now die happy.

Boomingham grumbles. "Greenskins. I'm afraid, my dear Ellaria, that in slavery the enslaved's brethren are sometimes the ones selling them. You must expect the least out of the greenskins. They are strangers to honor." Boomingham downs a mead and then unsheathes his King of the Desert. "Here's the plan, chappos. We wait for them on the ship. When they get close, Nyx, you set their boats ablaze. I don't doubt a number of them will make it aboard, but they'll be injured, and surely some will perish. Fire on the high water is much more dangerous than it may sound. We will all stand at the railing and cut down any who come aboard. It isn't the most honorable course of action, but slaving isn't the most honorable profession. They deserve what's coming to them." Boomingham stands grimly, staring out at the boats. OoC: Beautiful picture and story so far, Scuba. Also, I've never asked anyone to use ether out of a battle before, I sure hope this works.

Round Four Angel Battle Cronk v. Angel - Shield Tesni v. Angel - Damage (34-11=23) Arthur v. Aura A - Miss (Confusion) (1 ether Arthur) Alexis v. Angel - Aim (11/10=1) Sasha v. Angel - Miss Alexis v. Angel - Aim (11/1=1) Haldor heals Tesni - No Heal Free Hits Aura B v. Angel - (32/10=3) (Confusion [Even Roll]) Others Angel heals Enemies (35 all) (1 ether Angel) Aura A - Cursed (-3 max. health) Tesni - Cursed (-3 max. health) The battle continues. Cronk prays for his own angel, as Tesni takes a huge blast of light to the chest. Arthur confuses another Aura with another strange stream of words, and Alexis fires off two bolts that clip the Angel twice in the same spot. Haldor is unable to heal his fellow hurt Nord. The only good luck the team has this round is when one of the Aura's accidentally hits the Angel with a blast of light. All ether supplies seem low.

I've hosted 5 quests. But also, that's a pretty cool list!

I said before today. I actually said, if you read more closely, that now you appear cleared, which makes my voting easier today. BAWK! No need to get your feathers all ruffled! And no, my feathers are always clean, never dirty, not like some other birds... what are you insinuating? I'm a parrot. BAWK! As for the case against Maurice.... well, I don't think anyone can make the argument that you're not swinging strong today, Cameron. It's funny, I was suspect of you early on, but now you seem to be the towniest of the town... assuming that you do end up being town, and not some super smart and confusing scum... not likely, but never discount a BAWK! theory. Though I admit it's extremely unlikely, especially considering that you've voted very early on all days, which scum are not likely to do. I hope we're doing the right thing. I most certainly don't think Horace should be taken off the table as a candidate in the following days. Vote: Maurice Mouse (Cecile).

Round Three Angel Battle Cronk does nothing Tesni v. Angel - Special Damage (Cursed/Sealed) Arthur v. Aura A - Special Damage (Blinded) Alexis v. Angel - Critical Hit ([11x2]+22=44/10=4) Sasha does nothing Alexis v. Angel - Aim (11/10=1) Haldor does nothing Free Hits Aura B v. Cronk - ([30/2]-14=1) (No Confusion [Odd Roll]) Others Angel heals Enemies (35 all) (1 ether Angel) Aura A - Cursed (-3 max. health) Tesni - Cursed (-3 max. health) The battle rages. Tesni flies at the Angel, but passes through it, stumbling out of her charge with a raging headache and a body that seems unable to react to her. Arthur tries to fire a spell, but another flash of light renders him blind once more. Alexis is the only hero who has a successful round, beating back the angel with a number of arrows that seem to at least enrage the monster, if not harm it. The other heroes suddenly regain their vision and are able to rejoin the fray.

Pretty nice! I think you need a trans-green head in there though. The background is also a little too colorful to be Rapture, you've got to tone it down a little bit, but other than that, a pretty good all-around MOC!

I rolled for it.

That's a very sound theory. BAWK! It also leaves us with a question people are choosing not to address: where was the axe killer last night? Blocked? Or was the target protected? Or did the axe killer somehow lose their ability? It may not actively effect our lynch... Also, Cameron, why was your analysis lacking Night 2? What do you suspect happened? HEY! BAWK! You're the rat bird, you hear?! Another important note: your theory clears Gordon as a townie... unless he's bluffing about being MADE to target someone, which I somehow doubt. While that doesn't make his accusations of Maurice any more legitimate - townies easily and often lead incorrect lynches - it makes my ONLY candidate for lynch Horace. Gordon and Horace were to two I planned on narrowing in on today, so that only leaves one. And Ms. Hippo, this theory doesn't clear Horace at all. Horace never came forth claiming that he was told he targeted someone any night, if my memory serves. Surely he would have brought that to our attention, because it would have been strange. So we can assume if Horace was doing seen doing something cultisty, he was doing it of his own accord. An interesting theory no one has brought up yet, as well: could Horace be the SK? He seems to not really care which way the vote goes... and is flying under the radar.... is it possible?

Pardon me, that was an error on my part! And, as Scorpiox pointed out, the blinded effect should end after next turn.

Round Two Angel Battle Cronk heals Alexis - Heal More (more than enough) (1 ether Cronk) Tesni v. Angel - Hit (45x2=90/10=9) Arthur v. Aura A - Critical Hit ([([21x2]+16)x2]-4=112) (1 ether Arthur) (Cursed) Alexis v. Angel - Aim (11/10=1) Alexis v. Angel - Hit (33/10=3) Sasha does nothing Haldor does nothing Free Hits Aura B v. Cronk - ([30/2]-14=1) Others Angel heals Enemies (35 all) (1 ether Angel) Aura A - Cursed (-3 max. health) The battle rages. Cronk heals Alexis back up to perfect health before she and Tesni wail on the Angel, who continues to seem to absorb the blows with ease. Arthur lands one successful blow on one of the aura's, but the Angel heals it back up to near perfect health. The battle ranges on. Physically, the party seems fine... but their ether is beginning to wear down.

BAWK! What are the thoughts on the lack of an ax kill last night? Ax killer blocked? Target protected? Does anyone know if we've lost either of these roles? If we only have our blocker out there, that'd be important to know, because chances are high that they blocked the SK last night. My dear wifey! I do remember that question, but don't really have time to go back and look through all the days to prove that I've suspected people.... it really honestly seems like a waste of time to me. If it grows to be an issue, I'll do it, but for the time being, I'll focus on the present. I was vocal against Becka and Cameron at different points, I recall, you may look for them if it concerns you. Mr. Gorilla, it really does you no good to not bring forward ANY facts against Maurice. You claims he is clearly scum in your book.... but what if it's not the same i everyone else's books? The one point you brought forth publicly he defended himself against well enough. My biggest suspect for today is Horace. I'd really like to hear what he has to say, though I admit he'll have a difficult time defending himself against a dead person's accusations, especially when the accusations are "someone told me something that made him seem guilty, and also they probably involved a night action". No one call me names! Back in World War Two, parrots were used just as much as.... those other birds to carry messages, so I have every right to be a mailman! I'm a parrot! Im' a parrot! BAWK! You know World War Two? The great mailing war? Where we all mailed a lot of nasty warlike things to each other. That exists in this universe, right Marcellus?
