Atramor glanced at the elder, crossed his arms, and nodded at the Thumb. He didn't want to have to stir up a war in the process of keeping the village unharmed. This was probably as good as it'd get. "Think that's everythin'. I'm ready to head out."

Round Fourteen of Black and Blue Dreyrugr vs. Blue Assassin (Muckraker) - Damage (40 - 12 = 28 damage) Pretzel vs. Blue Assassin (Cross of Light) - Critical Hit (38 x 2 x 2 = 152 damage) >Erik vs. Blue Assassin (Twin Axe) - Miss (No effect) >Nessa vs. Blue Assassin (Silver Crossbow) - Damage (40/2 - 3 = 17 damage) >Sylph vs. Blue Assassin (Shrapnel Bow) - Aim (10 x 2 = 20 damage) Sylph's arrow grazes the assassin as Pretzel cracks his skull with a powerful blow from his staff. Dreyrugr and Nessa, however, can't follow his quick movements, the assassin's katana leaving vicious cuts on their bodies. Cat and Mouse - The Blue Assassin is attempting to escape. The heroes have five ten rounds to reach and engage him in physical combat. The timer will reset after the next engagement ends. - Rounds are run normally, but heroes have more freedom over their actions, such as examining or moving objects in the environment. - The heroes may attack the Blue Assassin with ranged weapons only at all times, but it will not count as an engagement. - If the Blue Assassin is not targeted, he will still deal free hits. He can be targeted with melee weapons, but nothing will happen.

Alternatively, shorten it to 'Quest #81: Heroes, Fire, Explosions, Stormy Things, Dramatic Stuff!'

They always end with something something something something something....heroes, I think, with some sort of dramatic shot in front of some sort of stormy/fiery thing.

Or we'll bust some blue heads and fly off on Destiny's Bounty seconds before blowing up the highly explosive blimp, casting the massive fireball as the backdrop to the heroes flying off into the sunset on a wave of awesomeness as the werepanthers cheer us on.

That is a skill that takes years to master. Or you at least have to imply you've taken years to master it earlier on so QMs take you seriously when you try to apply it.

And make sure you don't read any of mine, or you opinion will be justified.

Exactly. I really hope so, too.

The Great Resolution of IMHOTEP's Strivvian Lions.

Atramor strode up to the aoi with the rest of the party, his arms crossed. As much as he would've liked to have taken a more...straightforward route, he knew their best chance was for a diplomatic solution. "We were wonderin' what remained in store for the village here. Don't want them to be punished just because the rebels chose the waterfall up their as their base."

Arguably I'm pretty sure normal members think that about mafia.

And now the idea is a Quest that I just need to round out the edges of before I can pitch it. Two days and I'm almost done. Beats the months it took to solidify the idea of 51.

Don't forget they didn't fail Portal yet, I don't think.

I won't keep you that much longer. I cannot believe how long this Quest has turned out. You guys talked to like every NPC.

It's more for getting you all to the same location to set up for the next combat break..You'll move down to the ground when you attack. Environment/location is a non-issue when you're in an engagement.

"I see you over there, Doranee," snaps Calico, narrowing her eyes into a dark corner. "Don't you have, like, anything to say?"

Now that's a Quest I wanna be on.

Forgot about Skeleton Mage B's free hit. Namyrra instead takes no damage, while Hoke takes 1 from free hits. Round Nine of Ghastly Ghouls >Namyrra vs. Skeleton Knight (Light) - Great Spell (122 - 6 = 116 damage, -1 ether) Hoke vs. Skeleton Mage A (Light) - Enchantment (-17 ether, +1 SP to Steel Buckler (If you preference was to Vintul, just say so)) >Alexis vs. Skeleton Mage C (Death's Whip) - Masochism (20/2 - 3 = 7 damage, Alexis encouraged) >Stigveladi vs. Skeleton Mage B (Topaz?) - Special Damage: Dark Magic Burst (No effect, sealed) >Skrall vs. Spectre B (Hunter's Crossbow) - Special Damage: Freezing Touch (No effect, sealed) >Nur vs. Spectre C (Earth) - Shield: Magical Vortex (42 earth damage to all enemies, 37 health restored to all allies, -2 ether) All enemies badly poisoned - (10 damage, Skeleton Knight KO'd) Namyrra again blasts the knight as Hoke enchants his shield. Alexis is clubbed by one the mages, but she seems to enjoy the pain for some reason. Nur covers everyone in mud, damaging the enemies but healing his allies. The Knight succumbs to Alexis' infection.

Now that's a Quest I wanna see. :thumbup:

Round Twelve of Black and Blue >Sylph heals Nessa (Shrapnel Bow) - No Healing (No effect) >Erik >Nessa uses Potion - (+10 health) Dreyrugr vs. Blue Assassin (Muckraker) - Hide (Dreyrugr hides) >Pretzel vs. Blue Assassin (Flying Cross) - Meditate (+1 ether) Erik is only able to dent the top of the crate with his axe, which has been locked with a metal lid. He instead hooks onto the crane using it, but without Dreyrugr holding the winch, the rope slides to the ground. Luckily, it doesn't matter, because Dreyrugr promptly engages the Blue Assassin, who jumps off the catwalk and onto the ground, only to be swarmed by the rest of the heroes. The party can now combat the Blue Assassin normally until he attempts to flee again. Sylph is distracted by the Blue Assassin's acrobatic jump to the ground, and is unable to focus long enough to heal Nessa, who's forced to chug down a Potion. Dreyrugr dashes behind a crate from cover as Pretel sits down to meditate. Cat and Mouse - The Blue Assassin is attempting to escape. The heroes have five ten rounds to reach and engage him in physical combat. The timer will reset after the next engagement ends. - Rounds are run normally, but heroes have more freedom over their actions, such as examining or moving objects in the environment. - The heroes may attack the Blue Assassin with ranged weapons only at all times, but it will not count as an engagement. - If the Blue Assassin is not targeted, he will still deal free hits. He can be targeted with melee weapons, but nothing will happen. Enemies Blue Assassin Prodigy *Three rounds until breaking combat* Level 40 Dark Humanoid Health: 657/994 Special I: Bolas to the Feet – Blue Assassin Prodigy tosses throwing bolas, entangling the hero, dealing the Bound and Slowed effects for the duration of the battle until remedied. The hero cannot move until both effects are removed. Can only be used once per engagement. Special II: Bladestorm – Blue Assassin Prodigy rains the party with throwing knives, doing 20 damage, ignoring row to each of them. Can only be used once per engagement. Special III: Shroud – Blue Assassin Prodigy becomes invisible, making them unable to be targeted for the duration of the round. At the beginning of the next round, they will pull the hero that rolled Special Damage into the darkness, causing them to be Blinded for the next 3 rounds and Stunned. Blue Assassin Prodigy will attempt to flee immediately after doing so. Cannot be used while not engaged. Passive Special I: Deflect – Successful hits and spells on the Blue Assassin Prodigy have a 1/6 chance of being deflected to a random ally. Passive Special II: Clean Getaway – Blue Assassin Prodigy will break combat after three rounds to attempt to flee. Drops: Nothing Immune to all effects and sudden death. Specials used in order, but I and II can only be used once per engagement.
