Zepher

Weakened was what I was missing, thank you!

OoC: Not that I'm complaining, but why was Tarokai's damage divided twice instead of just once? What am I missing? Boomingham grits his teeth as the dark visage of Tarokai explodes with more squiggly lines the eldritch goo. He hears voices crying out from the back of his mind, gnawing away, subconscious to consciousness. Already his grasp on the battle and the other heroes is tenuous. Spotting an enormous ogre fighting along his side he makes note to allow the turncoat fight as long as he wants, but to deal with him afterwards. If he had betrayed Tarokai and his army, he could betray Lord Boomingham just as easily. Boomingham repeats his attack, howling at the Orcish King, determined he will take not one step closer to his own kingdom, treasure room, people, wine casks, wife, son.

OoC: You're forgetting the weather: the reason the "base damage" is *2/2 is darkness (all humanoid so: *2) and electric (weather so: /2). Then *2 again for Wermheim because he's still weak to electric regardless of weather (I believe). You're right about the power bonus, I did forget that. I will run the next round shortly, should probably be the last one.

I wish I had the time to go through the back log right now. I am very happy to be hosting again after a small break, though! I did forget that self-buffing enemies need a second special though. The only one who has it is Natnail, who I stole.

OoC: Roger. Sorry, immunities are usually listed next to the level (as seen on the other heroes) so I didn't think to check beyond that - I will add them there so I don't miss it again. OoC: Blinded on enemies prevents damage and free hits. Sealed prevents special damage. If they are physical or otherwise doesn't have anything to do with it. And the Bar Owner has all damage dealt to him divided by other enemies. Natnail+Wermheim means /2 to all damage dealt to the Owner.

I think the fairest way to maintain the way the item was intended would be to change the description to "SP: 2, +2 SP for Star Elves" (4 SP for Star Elves now). Then, if polished, it would go to "SP: 3, +2 SP for Star Elves" (5 SP for Star Elves). That way it doesn't get OP, but still maintains it's perk for the Star Elves out there. I think that would be most in keeping with the original intent as well.

OoC: Blinded strictly means you cannot actually successfully damage a foe with a non-ether based attack. I don't think it even means that you can't target them, just that it won't hit. So consumables are still totally usable!

OoC: I'll have time to auto-run maybe double rounds in the near future if you want to put in conditionals? Otherwise I can just try to my best to update twice a day over the weekend, it should be possible for me since it's not a tough battle to run. Round Four Rat's Behind Brawl >Darksten v.

Boomingham grins wildly. His ears hum with battle. He repeats his attack.

OoC: Had to double check myself a few times to figure out what happened, I changed one thing but not the other. In Round 1, since Matthias killed Andy and Bernard, Parvati should have targeted Natnail (as Stickfig pointed out). Natnail activated his first special then. OoC: Smart build, sorry I missed it, I'll fix it soon when I have time to run the next round. Will be busy tomorrow, so probably on Friday, sorry.

Boomingham growls and repeats his attack, blind to the rest of the combatants.

"Not a chance," snarls the bar keep as he glares at Parvati. Round Three Rat's Behind Brawl >Darksten v. Natnail - Damage ([19*2/2]-3=16 Damage, Darkstan Blinded) Soliman v.

OoC: That's what I'm saying. If he were left untargeted, he would not damage you. So sentinel will not protect against his special. It would protect you if he dealt damage with it, even if it was a special that dealt damage.

OoC: Will fix the rest. But I'd argue sentinel wouldn't protect against the Bar Owner's special - it protects the party from damage, but his special is non-damaging and supersedes his free hit, so I will still have it go through if he is left untargeted.

OoC: I will wait a few hours for Lord Duvors to confirm that he is alright with this plan of action. In the future I will run the round as close to twenty-four hours as I can using actions the characters stated themselves. This isn't to be nasty, but I think it's more in the spirit of the chaos of battle, and it will do Jebidiahs proud (and Sandy went with it recently in 148!).

OoC: Hey CMP - two questions. Is the "I Know Your Secrets" passive special intentionally vague as to what it actually does? If so, that's totally cool, just checking! And secondly are you sure you wrote that insanity thing right? Just because as it stands, every single enemy will turn any given hero insane if they successfully land a hit. Which is again fine, just not sure if that's what the battle was meant to do. Boomingham clenches his jaw and mumbles along: "Pseudos protect us all," missing one of the key letters of Soryx's earlier prayer. "Any ideas?" Boomingham stares at the Orcish King who invaded his homeland, who he had failed to meet on the battle field hundreds of years ago. The Orc wasn't directly responsible for what Boomingham had lost, though it was hard to not think that if he had never left home, never been on the field, never lost his army to such disastrous cowardliness and betrayal... his wife... Barthelomew... Boomingham lunges at Torakai from the back row, shield up.

Just want to say I designed the quest before I picked the party... so though it seems that Matthias knows everyone, that's just because I repeat characters and he's been on... two quests with me now? Three? Always love throwing in Everyman. This brings his appearances up to seven, which I think probably tops any of my other NPCs...

"Think I told you to get lost," drawls the sailor as he stands up, dwarfing the dwarf. "Your friend? The red-skinned green-skin. Yeah I know where she is, and it ain't pretty. But maybe," he says eyeing Parvati, "you'd like to join her. You know, not everyone is all lovey dovey with you greenskins. I hear that Heroica is led by one too." "Heroica?" asks another patron, drawing his sword. "They're always trying to pick fights helping out green skins. Bet they didn't know that the best sellsword in Eubric Freeport was in this bar." Natnail emerges from the crowd. "Name's Natnail. You bunch are always ruining my drinking and relaxing. Kicked the butt of one of your fat friends a few years ago. You look easy enough too." "You came to the wrong bar," says the barkeep as he picks up the dagger on the bar.

Next to a shattered bottle he finds someone he sees almost as often and dislikes almost as much as Justin the pale-faced barkeep (and for the same reason, I'd think, that they are both cowards). "Mmph, merp, medu..." mumbles Johnny Everyman.

"Not that I saw." "Yes, Parvati looks identical to me. Medusa just looks a lot like me." Parvati chuckles at Darkstan's continued blunders. "It is not so good a place," she tells Tholar. "It is dangerous to foreigners and those who live there alike. I would not advise that you go there unless you must." The heroes walk into the Rat's Behind and are immediately assaulted by the dank air. Dust hangs stagnantly in the air, and the whole place is clammy. A number of patrons, drunk in the early afternoon, turn their half-aware gazes on the heroes. OoC: I lost the light to take avatars for the characters in the bar, I'll insert them tomorrow! "Can I help you?" "Hey. Ain't that the red-faced bitch that always came in here?" He snarls at Parvati. "Thought you'd be dead by now." "That's my sister. Have you seen her recently?" "Get lost." A voice calls out from the back of the bar. "Howdy there! Are you looking for Medusa? I think I may know where she is!" "Quiet him down." The heroes hear a scuffle in the back of the bar, and a quiet "oomph" as a body slumps to the floor. "Now I told you, get lost. This ain't no bar for orcs and freak shows."

OoC: We will continue in earnest tomorrow, sorry, had a long work day. Parvati blushes as Tholar offers and then retracts his hand. "I come from the west of Baltarok, the more uncivilized area. We are all wandering warring tribes. It is a bad place. I assume that you know the eastern region? That is the land most are familiar with." "A nickname for our organization just as nonsensical as Heroica is to you. Perhaps you were founded as an organization to kill Orcs, but now you are helping them. In the same way, the Court of Demons, when originally created, was an organization in honor of Zoot and his vision for a chaotic world. The founding members themselves made a pact with a demonic being who Zane just calls Regret." "But Zane is the only current member who comes from that time, and even he was only using the demons as a means to an end. Parvati, Medus and myself have made no pacts, and have no interest in a world of chaos. I would be lying if I said that we weren't like Zane. He was a slave here, when he was young. Parvati, Medusa and I have all been abused and oppressed, and I don't think anyone would find it surprising that we'd like the power to protect ourselves. But we have little to do with demons now." "Kept people away in Baltarok, though, and has done the same here for the most part." "I'm afraid you'll think we've done none of the leg work, but no, we haven't been to the bar... I poked my head in to see if she was there, but one look at and smell of the clientele made me reconsider." "I thought it was common practice to ask heroes to help with trouble," says Parvati sullenly. "As I was trying to explain earlier - Parvati and I are no strangers to combat. Babeleth and Baltarok are eat or be eaten... but a city is much tougher for us to navigate. There are so many factions, so many prejudices, so many people. In Baltarok it didn't matter who we ran up against, Pongcanis, Orc, human, elf... if they wanted to kill us, we had to kill them. But here there is so much more to consider." "I don't think the drinkers there ever leave, so I'm sure you will be seeing the 'regulars'." "Then let's go." The heroes leave the clubhouse and make their way towards the Rat's Behind.
