He's only asking because Guts is offering like 250 gold for each one.

You mean KO'd?

"You're the actual General's Wife?" blinked Atramor, as he pulled on the Rat's Hide.

"...This isn't the first time this has happened to you, I s'pose."

"Sounds about right, Ellaria. Accordin' to them, Stirlance screwed up with his retellin' of it, purposely or not. Maybe we just have to do it correctly and all this crap will go away?" He takes a moment to heal himself to full health with the last of his ether, then tosses the Garnet Lamp and a Tonic to Althior, the Grating Stone and the other Tonic to Ellaria, the Aquamarine Lamp and the Minimizing Dust to Tesni, and keeps the Gaia Bomb for himself. "I think that was Act IV. We're pretty damn close to finishin' this. Let's move on."

Chauncy looks a lot like Wren. I swear to god, Zepher, if that's for a reason...

Atramor pulls the blunt end of the Pheles Rod out from the Door Keeper's splintered skull and helmet pits, poking through the loot for a moment before taking the Robust Shield, slinging it over his back with the other, lesser one he'd looted before. "Anyone got any preferences to this stuff?"

That's fair, I've spent way too much time on that myself.

Atramor Gibbin: Every Ally Killed is Another Enemy Gained! Docken's totally right to do that for once. Chekov's Ceiling. Why would something be glass unless an enemy is going to burst through it later?

"Keep at him," remarked Atramor, taking a wild swing at the Door Keeper from the back row. Same Battle Order. You could autoroll, if you have the time, can't imagine anyone changing their action. And you forgot to account for Mellt's elemental advantage against Aquatic, Tesni should've dealt 152 damage.

Why would you switch the OS on a game console? Is there a reason for it? I'm genuinely curious. I'm on the fence now. X1 isn't as bad as the fumbling reveal a few weeks back made it out to be. And they've got some great exclusives, too. Titanfall, Dead Rising 3, Halo (obviously). But it's a hundred bucks more expensive than the PS4, and there's still all this uncertainty about its connection and used games business...

"So Zepher, do I get to Special Mirror this Nuclear Bombardment twenty five times because it's an AoE and we all rolled it?"

"What the hell is your problem, mate? Can you cast a damn spell or not?"

Necromancers can't heal without sacrificing undead. Atramor winced, the party faring no better on their own. He quickly picked up the Pheles Rod, healing himself through it from the back row. "Right....Russel, Pigley, get in there, front row." Battle Order >Ellaria heals herself >Althior Althior's undead Tesni Russel v. Door Keeper Russel v. Door Keeper >Atramor heals himself

Enjoy your trip Sandy, we'll try not to burn Eubric to the ground too much. Maybe one or two houses, but nothing important.

Not that it matters either, since she got healed....

Round Five of Search and Seizure >Pretzel: heal Zasies (Cross of Light) - No Heal (No effect) Dreyrugr vs. Morgan (Crow Claw Dagger) - Special Dodge: Shell-Shocking Bombardment (No effect, Morgan sealed) >Nessa vs. Colby (Silver Crossbow) - Damage (10/2 = 5 damage) Illdria vs. Drake (Rapier) - Shield: Mug (53 x 2 = 106 damage, 106 gold stolen, Drake KO'd) >Jules heals Zasies (Water) - Heal Less (15 health restored, -1 ether) Zasies vs. George (Mace) - Furious Hit (25 x 2= 50 damage) >Sylph: heal Nessa (Shrapnel Bow) - Nurture (34 health restored, -1 ether) Henry uses free hit on Pretzel - (25/2 - 12 = 1 damage) Henry, George, Colby, and Drake poisoned (-1 health) George bleeding (-5 health) Pretzel's healing seems to have gotten rusty, and he fails to heal anyone, but Jules and Sylph pick up the pace to patch up both Zasies and Nessa, even after the latter is hit. Morgan can't seem to load her handcannon properly. Illdria knocks Drake to the floor with a swift slash across the chest, while Zasies continues to beat down George.

"Don't tell me you're afraid of gettin' a scratch." Atramor rolled his eyes.
