posades

Xander attacks Lion Footsoldier B from the front row, with calmness.

I agree, it may be best to wait unseen in the nearby forest and see if anyone returns during the night.

Xander sat quietly under a tree near the marketplace, reflecting on his adventure thus far. Although it had not gone entirely as planned, he felt the bond between his fellow adventurers had grown strong -- and for that he was grateful.

Either is fine, we have four more to go.

Witch's Hat Hut seems like a good starting point.

How do cloaks and specialized items like that work? Are they automatically equipped, and how do we keep up with the attributes of it (Power +1, etc.)?

Xander was deeply honored to receive such a rare piece of clothing from the party leader, yet only managed to nod graciously in Tomas's direction. "Eubric it is."

Xander targets the Blue Assassin with an attack from the front row, sensing the end is near for the foe.

You know there are canoes made out of concrete, so weight is not always an issue. Nice review though, it's nice to see quality products from competitors. In a perfect world LEGO would see this and lower their prices to be more competitive, but alas I don't think they see Oxford as real competitors here in the US and elsewhere.

I know I'm almost two weeks late, but I just wanted to thank everyone for the birthday wishes. Nothing LEGO for me unfortunately, but that's what gift cards are for.

It is truly a pleasure to see my fellow companions again, it has been too long. Keveak troubles me, Thormanil. I have a keen sense for someone's true intentions, and the sense I got from Keveak is one of selfishness; he seems to have an insatiable thirst for power from the conversations I could overhear. Because of these traits, he trusts no one and is suspicious of all. Keveak is a man of war, not peace; he will not hesitate to destroy whatever life necessary to enhance his standing. We can continue our conversation after we have dealt with these foes. Thank you, Tomas. I'm glad to re-assist the group with anything that may come up, including this battle! Xander readies an attack from the front row on Blue Assassin.

Alright Brickdoctor, I'm back now so feel free to bring Xander back into the storyline.

OOC: I'll be flying out first thing tomorrow morning, so do you mind directing Seaian in battle, Captain Tamamono? I'll try to check in once in a while to see how the quest is going; should be back in the thick of things Tuesday morning.

Seaian gets ready to attack Thug A from the back row.

Seaian readies yet another attack from the back row on Thug A.

Nice! Looks like you collected some of the Indian sets way back when too, Sandy.

Seaian readies an attack at Thug A from the back row.

Seaian chooses to use item Keveak's Permit on Blacksmith! Just kidding , attack on Thug B from back row is fine.

"I understand the consequences of this decision, and I am willing to stay here alone if it means successfully completing the mission." OOC: I'll be internet-less for my fall break coming up next week (besides the occasional phone check), and I have a midterm and several other projects I have to finish before then. Now would be a great time for me to go MIA for a bit. As for the NPC, Tamamono can take care of him unless I happen to log-on during a battle, but definitely don't wait on me if I'm the last person to act.

Xander was deep in thought near the corner of the room, waiting for the opportune moment to speak up. All his life he had been taught to put others before him, the concerns of the whole more important than the whims of one. "De'kra speaks the truth; if there are no objections, I would like to volunteer to stay behind. Thormanil is more than capable of protecting the group, and I will not hesitate to defend myself if danger presents itself here."

"What would the other option be if we don't sign the contract? Might there be someone else that knows more about the situation involving the Lion Knights?"

"I agree with Ad-Hoh, it seems the only way we're going to get any useful information out of them is to cooperate with them; we do however need to tread carefully, read the entire contract and make sure we do not put ourselves in a position that leaves us with little defense."

Yep, seems they are price matching the TRU sale of 30% off; if the collectible ninja princess minifigure-magnet is worth the tax money to you then I say go ahead and get it at TRU.

Xander agreed, the red house seemed like it might lead to some more clues; as long as the heroes were in town, however, it made sense to visit all it had to offer.

Simply breathtaking set; would have been perfect if it was Crownie versus black falcon knight, but that's probably just me. Besides, it should be pretty easy to swap out the color set for a Crownie joust (hopefully I have the right dark blue roof pieces). Price is up there, but LEGO stores should hopefully have a good deal around Christmas/New Years.
