I'll run the round in 3 hours. That should give Kinto enough time to go over your strategy, Vash. Also, I have class.

They should call it, "Aggressive Negotiations." I was hoping they wouldn't. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

I'm going to say that the net's effect only lasts 3 rounds, at which point it is removed, and retrievable. Realistically, one's not trapped in a net all battle. I thought the effect only lasted 3 rounds, but after rereading the rules page, I see that my assumption was incorrect. Sorry.

Sure, it can be remedied. Why not? Yes, it will cancel out your hastened. So throw it last.

The Dagger 3 Hit (19-6=13 Damage) >Dreyrugr v. The Cloak 4 Miss -1 poison damage Odds for third Combatant: 4 No new combatant. With the security granted to them by Drake's sturdy stance, the martial members of the party stepped forward to do their damage. It turned out rather fortunate that Drake was defending them. Karie, tired of ineffectually pin-pricking the Po Brothers, took a swig of mead. The honey alcohol strengthened her fortitude, and enabled her to place more power in her blows. Amorith tried to cast a spell, but after his debacle last round, the spell simply fizzled out before it could deal any damage. Dreyrugr, his shuriken under Ed's feet, aggressively swiped at the were-raven from the front. The scythe missed, and the Cloak seized the opportunity to launch an attack of his own, which Drake leaped in-front of, his shield taking the damage, and protecting them. The Dagger, attempting to catch the knight flat-footed, swung at Drake, but he too was rebuked by the sentinel's shield. Nessa, the cold, stead-fast sniper she was, shot the Dagger once more. She was getting good with the crossbow. "Screw the others! The elf's the one dealing us the most consistent damage. Damn those stinging bolts!" grumbled Al ferociously. Dreyrugr attempted again to swing at the Cloak, but yet again he was turned away. Within the Church, the party could hear talking again. "Did you get the guards?" "Yes! They'll be at the church in a minute." "Good, have you seen Garn, the Alter-boy today?" "No, he didn't show up this morning... Oh my... You don't think...." "Yes, I think so too. Go see if you can find him... Or, tell the Guards to, actually. If he's willing to steal 5,000 gold, he may be willing to do other things too. With the people of this city these days, who knows how well-armed he could be." "Right away, Father." Round 6 of Cloak and Dagger Ed Po (The Cloak) "How Irritating."

Karie, powerful from her honey beer, punctured Al's side with her poisoned rapier. Sexy slid past his armour and straight into the were-raven's flesh. If he wasn't poisoned before, he would be now. Amorith attempted, again, an arcane assault, but was distracted by the Cloak, who bashed the bruised wizard in the chest. Dreyrugr, who failed to hit the Cloak, managed, instead, his secondary objective, which was to push the beaked beast back. He dove and grabbed his tool, tumbling out of harms way. Drake, loosening his stance to hit his foes, was beset upon by the Dagger. try as he might, Drake could not stab the bird-man, succeeding only in repulsing the were-raven's unwanted advances. Nessa, from her reliable position in the back, decided it was time to get the combat over-with. She aimed and fired at the Dagger, and swiftly swiveled, loaded twice again, and released two more bolts into the Cloak. "Ah! That does sting!" cried the sorcerer. "Who would make such a thing?" he balked as he removed the thorns from his side. The Cloak, enraged by the sting of the cursed bolts, swung his scepter at Dreyrugr, who'd been eyeing him to spy a weakness in his defense. At least the vampire didn't have to retrieve his shuriken. Inside the church, a door slammed, then another drawer slammed. The knob on the back door entrance to the church shook, and out stepped an elderly man. He was clad in black church-wear, and wore a peasant's hood, and carried a twisted walking-stick staff in one hand, and a large black sack in the other. The sack jingled of gold. He was turned around, locking the door, oblivious to the fight going on behind him. He spoke in a deep, smarmy voice that the party recognized as belonging to Father Caine. “Oh, Ennoc, the fools’ll be running around like headless chickens—like Sheep without a shepherd—Now, all we have to do is meet up with Abe and his companions, hand these 'Market-funds and donations' over to sellers, and….” He trailed off as he turned around, noticing the unwanted attention. "What is the meaning of this?!” "Obviously, the plan wasn't as unnoticeable as Abraham claimed it was going to be. The Hinckwells sent this band of rogues after us. They've got to die here if you want to get out of this with clean hands." “Damn-it! That's what you're for! I've never killed in my life! I don't want to kill anyone! I just want the money!" He sobbed, pathetically, in his nasally received pronunciation accent. The Po brothers both looked at the corrupt cleric with disdain. "Then heal us or something!" snarled Al Po, annoyed. "You're lucky you're paying us enough to not kill you right now. 5,000 gold is enough to kill a man for, but what we're going to get if this plan comes through is enough to kill 60." "Well, considering what Abe's companion is bringing to the table, I'd say, it's more like 70." "That would take a long time." "It certainly would. Fortunately, we only have to kill 5." The Cleric seemed disappointed by his companions, perhaps, for a moment, wondering if he was doing the right thing. The moment passed shortly. “You’re right… And this alley only has one exit.” He finished, grinning again. The Po Brothers didn't seem to impressed with him, though.

The Crooked Cleric's finally on the table. Read his lines in a Nigel Thornberry accent.

I thought that's what the verdict would be. Thanks. Cloak, Dagger, and Cane! I considered having his cane be dropped as well, but there aren't any clerics in the party. The accent is to differentiate him from Pretzel. (Jk, they're pretty different. sorta.) ~Insectoid Aristoctrat

I've got a question. Say you're a mage, and you're up against a flying monster, and you've got a topaz and a garnet. In order to maximize every single shield (which picks a random gem from your possession), could you drop said garnet (which, as we all know, doesn't effect flying monsters) from your bag, effectively removing it from your possession, until the battle ended and then retrieve it? Could you do that to multiple gems? Would that take a turn, or would it be instantaneous? Has this already been asked? ~Insectoid Aristocrat

Poop, you're right. Magic counts as physical. Sorry for the confusion. And yes, I was planning on letting you guys visit the Market if you'd like after this confrontation to purchase potions and whatnot.

That's what I thought, but I would like to draw attention to the Cloak's specials not being Physical damage. I threw the talon comment in because I figured you'd leave the shuriken alone this round.

>Karie- Potions Amorith (+10 HP) >Dreyrugr- retrieve shuriken >Nessa v. The Dagger 3 Hit (19-6=13 Damage) >Drake v. The Dagger 1 Shield (Sentinel: No Physical Damage next round) >Amorith v. The Cloak 1 Shield (Magic Burst Garnet Chosen No effect on Flying monsters. That sucks. Sorry.) >Dreyrugr v. The Cloak 3 Hit (17-7=10 Damage) -1 damage poison Odds for third combatant 2 No new combatant The Heroes hunkered down for the fight. Karie begrudgingly fed Amorith her potion. Amorith thanked her cordially. Dreyrugr took a dive to retrieve his discarded shuriken, dodging a swipe from the Dagger, and avoiding a scepter-swing from the Cloak. "You've got the fangs, are you sure you're not a snake?" demanded the amused sorcerer at the vampire's slippery evasion. Nessa, having drunk her potion, placed a cursed bolt in her crossbow, aimed at the Dagger, steadied her hands, and fired, hitting the assassin. "Gah! De-equip those bloody bolts! They sting!" Drake, discouraged from swinging his sword, took up his shield, and prepared to defend his comrades. Amorith, healed and prepared to deal another devastating blow to the Po Brothers, accidentally pulled a garnet from his bag. He released the spell. The earth beneath both were-ravens erupted into jagged spikes, but the flying beasts lifted themselves from the ground, nullifying Amorith's spell. "Ha, mage! Earth spells have no effect on those with wings! Remember your element advantages! For instance, Darkness deals double damage to humanoids such as yourself!" called the hovering sorcerer as he descended safely away from Amorith's magic. A perceptive party-member realized that the alley lacked a fourth wall. Dreyrugr, having retrieved his shuriken, launched it at the descending mage. The shuriken sliced him under his cloak, and fell to the ground at his feet. "grrr." Grumbled the were-raver rogue, placing his leg talon over the tool. "I'd like to see you retrieve it now!"

Of course. Assuming the third combatant doesn't enter and no one gets hit to badly, I should be able to do a round or two of just you guys beating them up. I'll only auto-run if nothing bad happens. All I need now is a Battle order. I don't remember the last time Drake logged in, but Kintobor, you can choose his action.

I'll run the next round when I get a battle order, I'd auto-run it, but I'd like to see a preferred order.

"Thank you," grunted Sylph, standing up. His bat returned to his cape. "Did you miss me, Regret?" He grunted as he formulated his plan.

The Dagger (BR) 4 Miss >Dreyrugr v. The Cloak (BR) 4 Miss -1 damage to Al (Poison) Odds for third combatant 6 No new combatant The Round went rather poorly for the Heroes, who, after enjoying huge success upon surprising the Po Brothers, had come to a near stand-still, being dealt more damage then they were dishing out. Karie, hoping to get their powerful mage back in action after the devastating blow he was dealt previously, poured a remedy down his throat. Nessa, still smoking from Ed's lightning, chugged a potion in the back row, wiping the shameful taste off her lips with disdain. Dreyrugr plucked his handy-dandy shuriken from the floor, avoiding a swing from the Dagger in the process. Amorith, still reeling from the confusion the Cloak's dark magic caused him, failed to cast his spell fast enough. Ed, noticing the mage's attempt, beat him to the punch with his scepter. "Oh, no, you don't!" he called, extending his arm to make-up for the distance, and bringing his scepter down upon the mage's head. Drake, disgruntled from his numerous rebuffs from the Cloak, targeted the Dagger. He swung his blade at the roguish rascal, but found that his new quarry was even more adept at repulsing swings. And Drake narrowly missed the Dagger's counter-strike, moving away just in-time. Dreyrugr tried to spy an opening in his quarry, the Cloak's, defenses, and leaped at an opportunity he thought he viewed. Unfortunately, his shuriken was caught by Ed's defensive cloak. The Brothers now seemed less playful and more focused on their craft. No new sound came from the Church.

"My mate and I should be living for some time yet. Only the good die young." "I've dealt with one of these before." grunted the Dagger. "If you chop them up enough, they don't come back!" he grinned sadistically. "I didn't know it was a vampire before-hand though." He chuckled.

Still waiting for Karie and Drake's actions and the battle order. BTW, We've been doing a page per day. "I'm afraid your eyes may be bigger than your stomach in that case." Grinned the were-raven rogue. "In all my years of life, I've never been killed." he chuckled, amused by his semi-paradoxical quip. No problem.

Antagonizing QMs is what the game's about! Don't worry. If he sics an army of undeads on you, I'll sic an army of were-ravens on him... Or I might just do that anyways. ~Insectoid Aristocrat

"Where that one came from I have more!" chuckled the were-raven in a grim echo of Nessa's earlier taunt as he tossed his topaz in the air and caught it again.

Thank Flipz for correcting me there.

Ah, I realize I made a mistake. She's only stunned this round, but it means that she loses her turn, meaning she can't remedy herself or take a potion. Ooh! Bad mistake! She targeted the Cloak!

The three injured party members stood their ground and healed themselves with their multitudes of potions. Karie, fed-up by the antics of the cooky crow-brained couple, whipped her blade at the Dagger, slicing in between his protective belts and armour. She hit, but due to the distance from which she attacked, the damage dealt was halved. as she leaned it to cut as deaply as possible, the expert pickpocket noticed a hidden pocket of gold, which she snatched and placed in her own. "Hey! First my dagger, now my change?!" Cried the were-raven. "Oh, and poison?" He added. He was used to the feeling it seemed. "I've drunk worse." Nessa went to reload her crossbow, but still somewhat unaccustomed with the silver crossbow, Nessa dropped the bolt she was trying to load, the first mistake she'd made all battle. Cackling with sadistic glee, Al focused on his topaz. jolts of electricity raced across his form as the static energy built up. The air around him darkened with power. "Let's engage in a little SHOCK-therapy!" The mad mage cackled. Dreyrugr, healed and ready-to-go, sliced into the distracted Cloak, snatching up more gold. "I'll take back what's mine from your cold dead corpse!" Inside the church, the noises had stopped. Round 3 of Cloak and Dagger Ed Po (The Cloak) "Let's just kill them, Love!"

I think that's sufficient to run another round. I don't want to bore you with simply cutting down their HP, and your plan's solid. I'll run it in a minute.

OoC: Didn't Hal attack last round? Also, after thinking about it for some time, as a monster, shouldn't Rome be a Beast like all werefolk? Sorry for the wait guys, I had to update 62, and then I needed to get to the dining hall before it closed. Man am I busy IRL Sylph's bat wrested herself from the snow, speaking to Elgar, "He's down, but not out." she squeaked.
