Knifk's relentless assault keeps his target from casting any spells. Thormanil the Merciful releases Bravo from his confinement on this plane then quickly sets to work on freeing Alpha. T'wan Ti begins a lengthy incantation in the hopes of saving her sister from the orc brute. Elgar dumps his remedy on the Arasmyth statue. The mage fires a spell that must have been meant for the zealot before they were petrified because he hits nothing. T'wan Ti finishes her spell and a giant ball of light drops on Hoh's head. Its brilliance blinds Hoh, Thorm and Elgar. Once again the Wraith flies high and wails but this time it sucks 4 ether from the heroes. With their mages out of ether, their vision obscured and their physical immunity fading, the Party needs to make the next round count. The battle continues.

As the ranger regains his senses, Thormanil sends healing energy Bravo's way. The spell jolts the orc and he once again regains control of his mind. He swiftly attacks one of the mage sisters. Elgar clears his vision and quickly tends to Knifk. The knight's eyes pop open and he rages at the first enemy he sees. With his mind clouded, Ad-Hoh can not recall the incantation for a strong bolt of darkness so shoots a weaker one. Echo rises and his tentacles wriggle around as his empty eyes glow brightly. Hypnotized, Arasmyth and the zealot slowly make their way to the spirit, ignoring the fight around them. They wake for a moment and are shocked to see they are standing side by side. Before either can attack, their bodies turn to stone. Mini duels break out but the heroes are immune to any physical hits. The Wraith flies high and wails as it sucks 3 ether from the heroes. The Party is in good shape despite their leader's predicament. The battle continues. The Enemies: Akkaban Archivist - "They've recovered. Just like I predicted..."

Akkaba’s Delight - A delightful diddy about Akkaba before he was betrayed. Causes the blessed effect on a random ally for three rounds. “Oh! You doth have a friend in me...” Truth Of Akkaba - Reveals the horrid truth of Akkaba. Hexes a random enemy for three rounds. “See the face of Akkaba, see his true visage...” Shameful Secrets - This song reminds all combatants of a shameful secret they hold (like hitting a boy in the head in the sewer) . 50% chance heroes have their level halved for one round and 50% chance enemies have their level halved for one round. “Let your secrets out I say! Let them see the light of day!” Sewer Slide - It seems that Singerson might have entered through the sewers as well. All heroes are hastened but also poisoned for one round. “Sliding down the sewer luge is fun...but dirty.” Bridge Guardian - A familiar song about a giggling guardian. All enemies are magically burned for 5 damage regardless of SP. “Giggle giggle giggle, all she does is giggle as you fall in a pit and are burned for a bit.” Righteous Reverb - The song reverberates off the walls, vibrating the heroes. All heroes get the immune to physical damage effect (physical based free hits included) for three rounds but take double damage from magic based attacks (magical based free hits included). "Caaanaaanaaan yoooouuuuuuuu feeeeeeeeeeeeelllll theeeeeeeeeeeeeee viiiiiiiiibrrrrrraaaaaaatiiioooooooonnnnnsssssssss?!" Party Leader, choose the order of actions.

All of you, choose your targets and the Row you want to fight in. Also mention if you want to try to flee, heal, or cast a magic spell, or if you want to use an item instead of attacking. Check your stats, let me know if there are mistakes. Trickster's Masks can be donned/removed in the same turn as your normal action. Currently two characters are wearing a mask: Thorm(Gender-Human) and 'Smyth(Gender-Elf) QM Note: The Maa'ri will join the fight at round 10...if you live that long.

At first I thought you were a straight damage dealer as you started out barbarian and had a darkness blade so I couldn't figure out why you've stuck with the berserker for more than one quest (thought you'd just try it out then switch) instead of going for class that put out more damage. But then I saw your post a little while ago that said you like to make tanks so yeah, I think Paragon would be cool for Tesni. I like that TRUCE ability but it'll be lame when people listed after you end up rolling CRIT or SHIELD. I guess Paragons get positioned last in Order of Actions??? O_o

Nur's Actions Attempt to cast luck on Johon OoC: I like that scroll. Diabolical in design X_x Consume a Grand Tonic Consume Raw Meat Give Helmet (+1hp) to Sylph Nur attempts to cast a beneficial spell on Johon. He opens his pack and drinks from a grand tonic. He unwraps the raw meat and shovels it down his throat so he wouldn't have to share. Nur sees the three throwing shurikens in his pack then looks to his throwing arm covered in stone. The strength was better than before but any bit of finesse he had was gone. He wouldn't be throwing them again soon, not that he was any good with them in the first place. Then he eyed his helmet. "Here Sylph. If you're going to try out your skill with the bow now from the back row, might as well have some extra protection." Nur hands Sylph his Helmet. "It's a momento from the quest I met Johon here in...keep it." Nur looks back down the path they just traveled. He thinks an opportunity was missed by leaving five merry women unconscious in the middle of nowhere with no law enforcement or other witnesses in sight. He grinned and returned from his daydreaming. "Anyone have a compass?"

OoC: Can relate. Results of Round Two of The Archivist's Assault: Homer Singerson uses Skill - Song: Bridge Guardian (All enemies lose 5 health) Knifk vs. Akkaban Archivist - Critical Mortal Hit (12x2+19-5=38 damage, Deflection=No, Leadership=No) >Thormanil Nihai uses Item (Self) - Smelling Salts (+hastened effect) >Thormanil Nihai heals Arasmyth RuGard - Heal Much More/No Healing (12x3+21=57 health restored) >Arasmyth RuGard vs. Orc Spirit (Echo) - Great Spell (8x2+15=31 wind damage) >Ad-Hoh vs. Akkaba Mage, T'wan Ti (Human) - Special Damage: Mind Numb (Temporary -2 levels) >Elgar Gligin vs. Akkaba Cleric (Human) - Critical Hit (11x2+16-5=33 damage) Free Hits: Vengeance Wraith vs. Knifk - Free Hit (23-9=14 damage) Knifk counter-strikes Vengeance Wraith - Free Hit (31 damage) Orc Spirit (Alpha) vs. Thormanil Nihai - Free Hit (10/2-3=2 damage) Orc Spirit (Bravo) vs. Arasmyth RuGard - Free Hit (13/2 rounded up -3=4 damage) Akkaba Paladin (Human) vs. Ad-Hoh - Free Hit (20/2=10 damage) Akkaba Mage (Human) vs. Elgar Gligin - Free Hit (25/2 rounded up =13 damage) Akkaba Zealot (Elf) vs. Knifk - Free Hit (30 full damage) Knifk counter-strikes Akkaba Zealot (Elf) - Free Hit (31 damage) Other Stuff: All players lose 2 ether from Wraith's drain Knifk takes full advantage of the Archivist's stunned condition a deals a massive critical hit. The Archivist attempts to cast a deflective spell but fails so receives the full force of the orc's onslaught. The smelling salts wake up Thormanil and give him the adrenaline needed to send a big heal his party leader's way. Arasmyth connects again with a powerful wind spell. Frightened of facing a creature unknown to her, T'wan Ti lowers Hoh's intelligence. Elgar's bolt gets around the cleric's shield. The heroes are doing great but now it is the enemies' turn to act! The wraith slowly floats towards Knifk. With a backhand it swats the orc's shield away with its left hand and continues with its strike plunging its other shadowy gnarled claw into Knifk's chest. He swipes widely at the creature. Inspired by the wraith, the zealot strikes the defenseless knight as well. Knifk's head falls backward as he falls into unconsciousness. His well trained muscles or the magic of the gloves keep him on his feet and allow him a final strike against the unsuspecting opponent. Once again under the Archivist's control, Bravo attacks Arasmyth while his counterpart suddenly appears behind Thormanil, taking him offguard. The paladin strikes Ad-Hoh with his shield as the other mage sends a bolt just powerful enough to knock out Elgar. The Wraith flies high and wails as it sucks 2 ether from the heroes. With two members down and the Maa'ri nowhere in sight, the battle is just beginning. How can the Party ever hope to recover?

Nods to the archer. "You're quite impressive." Nur's stare doesn't leave Robina. "Sylph, is Johon beyond the help of your druidic magic? Try to revive him first. If you should fail, then I will use a Phoenix Essence on Johon from the back row, else I attack Robina Hooter from the back row with my dagger. He can't learn from this combat experience if he's sleepin' and we need everyone at their strongest if we're to succeed in our quest."

OoC: Haha QM Note: Party Leader/2nd, feel free to choose Thorm's action or wait for him to post. I won't be back for a few hours from now anyway... A collective gasp is uttered after the heroes reveal their true forms. "He shoots pretty good for a human." "An orc in Nahrees, unchained?!" "I'd still bed the one in the blue." "The one adept at darkness is...is a goblin!" "Sister, no one must know of this. Kill it!" - "For the record I knew the identity and race of all. And that thing is correctly identified as a Pantanan." - "NO ONE CARES!" - "Yes, well, carry on. No one listens to me and I'm in charge here! I'm a genius for 'Kabba's sake. I get no respect... " Pouts.

"Back on your feet, my friend." En Sabah Nur uses a phoenix essence on Johon from the back row. "Who knew Hooters could be so much trouble."

OoC: Put me first in the next round and I'll get Johon up. For now, attack or heal. Nur watched as the bomb he threw seemed to travel in slow motion...

Magic hat that sucks him into the void and transports him a distance away causing him to flee. You guys have been given the opportunity to create an item your minifig is already wearing which is cool to me as I always want drops that match my minifig's attire.

OoC: My apologies. Was near ready to go after jmb's post but fire & CO alarms went off in my complex. Had to transport someone to emergency room. Weee-ooo, weee-ooo, weeee-ooo!

The teams choose their targets and go to work. The Archivist makes the first move. From studying Knifk's mannerisms only a short while, he is able to successfully produce a weak burst of darkness damage. The Vengeance Wraith reaches through Knifk's shield and armor until its fingertips graze the orc's heart. Thormanil swallows a potent elixir before casting a spell at an orc apparition. The display causes the Wraith to cringe and withdraw his attack from the knight. Arasmyth proves he's quite proficient at ghost busting as he keeps two apparitions at bay. His wind attack on Bravo causes the spirit to remember his time in the world of the living. Enraged he attacks the first non-orc enemy he sees which is the zealot. Ad-Hoh throws a holy bomb. It shatters in the middle of the enemy formation, washing them all with light damage. T'wan Ti shields her eyes from the light and doesn't see the shadowy bolt that follows it. Elgar is clipped by the cleric while preparing his three bolt tripleshot technique but manages to get all the shots off. Knifk engages in a ghostly duel while a sneaky mage and zealot attack from behind. The Wraith flies high and wails as it sucks 1 ether from the heroes who also lose a point of health from Singerson's strange song. The heroes return to normal speed but the battle continues.

"Dak, if you must go first, tend to our leader or attack, which ever is more interesting) . Don't worry friends, we shall see you on your feet before the end of this fight. I just can't concentrate with that damn harpy squealin'." Nur throws a fire bomb from the back row.

QM Note: Sorry about that, your target will be renamed Akkaba Mage, T'wan Ti (Human). Also, PL or 2nd, choose Knifk's targets. - "Hey, what's up, Archivist. Mind if I call you Archie?" - "As a matter of fac-" "I'm Arasmyth, air-a-smith, not aero-smith, but that's funny that you bring that up, because Aero is an ancient term for air, or wind, and I'm an aeromancer, like, wind and weather Mage. Aerosmith, aeromancer, shocking, right? That was a pun. You know, lightning is a wether thing. I like puns. You like puns?" - "I thank you for the correction. As for liking puns-" " I hope you do, because we're about to blow you away, mothermegabloker. Oh, sorry. I swear sometimes. I know uptight megablokholes like you don't like that sometimes. You're going to have to deal with it, though, but don't worry. Soon enough you'll be lying on the floor brutally eviscerated by one of my friends here, Thorthor or Knifk." - "Well I highly doubt they'll be able to-" - "They both like ripping douchebags new ones." - Turns to Orc Spirit Alpha and mouths, "Douchebags?" Shrugs. "So, you're a scholarly type, right? What do you think about planewalking? You know, where you physically move yourself between planes instead of just inanimate objects. I know it's not really popular in Eubric, but one of my buddies - Arthur Justus Regulus the Seventh, you probably have been stalking him, too, bright boy, lots of potential as a cryomancer or a necromancer - mentioned it and I've been doing some reading up on it." - "Actually I'm quite familiar with-" "So I think I may be able to pull off a planewalk, so I was wondering: Do you want us to dump you in the Plane of Infinite Hellfire of the Plane of Infinite Lightning when we're done with you?" The Archivist throws his hands up in defeat. "I mean, I love lightning, and having a blokload of volts running through you every second of every second until you die when your heart blows up sounds unpleasant, but being scorched in eternal flames of damnation sounds downright miserable. Ooh, or maybe we could try shooting you into a black hole through a portal. I've always wondered what one of those things does. Hey, you're a genius, right? Do you know what happens if yo go I to a black hole? Oh, right, this is no time fr talking. I'm just going to get back to kicking your megablokholes." - "Somebody silence him!"

"Interesting cadence, Bat Handler. I somehow find it...motivating. Johon, which one was your girlfriend again?" Nur cast an earth spell from the back row at Alanna Dale.

Good luck.

Archivist (reference) Additional Health: -10 Additional Ether: +15 Weapons: Wands, Staves, Tomes, Scrolls Job Trait(s): Translation - Through intense study, the Archivist is able to translate any written language. Decipher - Slightly better at decoding scrolls. All 50/50 chance scrolls have 2/3 chance to hit. Magic Resistance - The Archivist receives 50% less damage from magic based spells and attacks. Battle Style: Studious - These scholars prefer to read from scrolls rather than rely on natural ability. 1. SHIELD: Enlightened Assault - The scroll used has a 100% chance of success and hits all enemies. In addition, the Archivist hits all enemies with a non-elemental spell for damage in an amount equal to his or her weapon power. The Archivist may choose to sacrifice ether to add to the damage. Elemental bonuses of the spell are determined by the gems imbued in the weapon used at the time of the attack. Does not deplete ether. 2. RECORDED SPECIAL HIT - The Archivist will use one of the specials recorded in his or her Master Spell Book. If no specials have been recorded then the Archivist will read their scroll and have its effects applied to the target and the target listed after it in the enemy order of actions. Scroll effects do not stack. Ether depleted and chance of success is dependent upon scroll used. 3. ENLIGHTENED HIT: The scroll effect hits the selected enemy. In addition, the Archivist hits the target with a non-elemental spell for damage in an amount equal to his or her weapon power. The Archivist may choose to sacrifice ether to add to the damage. Elemental bonuses of the spell are determined by the gems imbued in the weapon used at the time of the attack. Ether depleted and chance of success is dependent upon scroll used. 4. SCRIBE SCROLL - The Archivist may choose to record the targeted enemy’s special in his or her Master Spell Book and may also choose to erase a recorded special. In addition, the Archivist regenerates 5 ether. 5. DAMAGE: The scholar is struck by his or her opponent’s damage. 6. SPECIAL DAMAGE: The scholar is struck by his or her opponent’s special skill. Master Spell book The Archivist must carry a Master Spell Book in his or her inventory. The Master Spell Book can hold up to six recorded enemy npc specials. Enemy specials recorded expire at the end of each quest. The Archivist must state the special to be used in the event of a /roll 2 or simply list the special name (preferably with a link to the post acquired from) first in the player’s inventory (i.e. Master Spell Book: Laughing Gas, Multi Shot, Effective Thievery, etc.)

The heroes enter the last locked room of the Apothecarium available to them. It houses many smells that tickle the nose from pleasing aromas to the stench of death. The primary scent rotates often enough so that it can’t be recognized and the heroes’ noses aren't overwhelmed by any one incredibly bad odor. The room is well lit as if the sun was sitting in the corner. Patches of green shag carpeting erupted from random areas of the floor boards. Scrolls along with numerous vials litter parts of the floor and tables. For one who works in such a studious profession, the figure appears unorganized and a slob. However the man’s garb is clean and unblemished. He wore a multi colored scarf around his waist that began purple but ended in a scaly pattern between his legs. Obsidian bones adorned his chest fashioned to look like a ribcage. He wore a mask with a breathing apparatus as he worked on a project holding a magical looking hammer with gloved hand. As the heroes ventured closer, the man, with back still turned, looked up from his work and addressed the Party. “Heroes of Heroica. I have been expecting your arrival. Although I did expect you to reach me much sooner.” The man turns around. “Too much commotion was caused for you to be random recruits. Only those from the Heroica organization would and could cause such disturbances on such a night where the majority of the city was elsewhere. The Akkaba Inquisitors obviously failed in their duties to alert their teams of non-believers. If they had succeeded, the city would be on high alert and you would have been met with greater hostility during your stay.” - He moves from behind his workstation and continues in his deep mellifluous voice. “I am The Archivist. I am responsible for recording things such as our history and conducting experiments that contribute to the plans as laid forth by Akkaba himself, as dictated by He Who is Closest to Akkaba. I am also known for my keen powers of observation and deduction. For instance...” The Archivist slowly turns his head and looks closely at the party. “I am quite familiar with the inhabitants and businesses of thousands of cities and Eubric is one of them. I know there are no active dwarfs in Heroica. The only ones capable of wielding the weaponry you carry have not the current skills to do so and could never had made it this far in your quest. Therefore the quiet bearded dwarf is no dwarf at all. By your lumbered gait, you are of orcish parentage. Again because of the skill level required to navigate this city, you could only be one of two orcs. From the last Heroica intel report I received...the other has journeyed to Dastan and is more...talkative. You must be Knifk.” “Led by the mage ‘Aerosmith’, is that the preferred pronunciation?” He waved his hand dismissively. "Elgar, Thormanil and Ad-Hoh make up the rest of your party.” The Archivist lowers his head a moment before gliding over to a large scepter and gingerly lifting it. “This is what you have been seeking, Homeria Singerson. I know of your personal quest to collect items for that ‘Song of yours. Since your arrival to the city of Nahrees I had been wondering when you would make a move toward retrieving this Needlessly Large Rod.” The Archivist dramatically raised the staff in the air with one hand. “I prefer to sit motionless like a spider in the center of its web, a web that has a thousand radiations, and I know well every quiver of each of them. I tend to do very little myself as I only plan. But my agents are numerous and splendidly organized as you shall now discover for yourselves.” The Archivist slammed his magical hammer on a nearby desk. A portion of it shattered and a pinkish gas floated upward as his hands glowed with an incantation. “Tonight’s experiment is with the undead.” Some guardsmen entered the room as a few apparitions appeared.

Scroll has a 50/50 chance of success. ) - "Which song would you like me to sing?" Homer Singerson has 6 songs that can be sung, each usable only once per battle. Akkaba’s Delight - A delightful diddy about Akkaba before he was betrayed. Causes the blessed effect on a random ally for three rounds. “Oh! You doth have a friend in me...” Truth Of Akkaba - Reveals the horrid truth of Akkaba. Hexes a random enemy for three rounds. “See the face of Akkaba, see his true visage...” Shameful Secrets - This song reminds all combatants of a shameful secret they hold (like hitting a boy in the head in the sewer) . 50% chance heroes have their level halved for one round and 50% chance enemies have their level halved for one round. “Let your secrets out I say! Let them see the light of day!” Sewer Slide - It seems that Singerson might have entered through the sewers as well. All heroes are hastened but also poisoned for one round. “Sliding down the sewer luge is fun...but dirty.” Bridge Guardian - A familiar song about a giggling guardian. All enemies are magically burned for 5 damage regardless of SP. “Giggle giggle giggle, all she does is giggle as you fall in a pit and are burned for a bit.” Righteous Reverb - The song reverberates off the walls, vibrating the heroes. All heroes get the immune to physical damage effect (physical based free hits included) for three rounds but take double damage from magic based attacks (magical based free hits included). "Caaanaaanaaan yoooouuuuuuuu feeeeeeeeeeeeelllll theeeeeeeeeeeeeee viiiiiiiiibrrrrrraaaaaaatiiioooooooonnnnnsssssssss?!" Party Leader, choose the order of actions. Also choose the song Singerson will sing. It will take effect before the round begins. Knifk, state if you want to sacrifice any additional health for your attacks. All of you, choose your targets and the Row you want to fight in. Also mention if you want to try to flee, heal, or cast a magic spell, or if you want to use an item instead of attacking. Check your stats. Trickster's Masks can be donned/removed in the same turn as your normal action. Currently all characters are wearing a mask: Knifk(Dwarf), Thorm(Gender-Human), 'Smyth(Gender-Elf), Hoh(Elf), and Elgar(Elf). QM Note: The Maa'ri will join the fight at round 10...if you live that long.

lol Thank you.

Could the title get changed to "Heroica RPG" please? This ain't the board game.

"In need of a key we seem to be. To finish the quest, it's up to me! I have one right here I'd like to try, luck be with me so I don't fry!" Singerson used her key and unlocked the door. The spell surrounding it dissipated instantly. Does the Party wish to enter?

"I meant get first in the order of actions which only the PL can fix and absorb that hit from the minstrel!"

"Hey knight, my pal Johon can't take much more punishment. Get in the fight quicker and put that shield of yours to use!" Nur wanted no part of the Twin Mountains' meaty fists so he decided to keep his distance and continue to attack Little Jane from the back row with an earth spell. He was getting closer to bringing down the giant like that time when he was saving Abel...

Scroll has a 50/50 chance of success. ) Arasmyth expends an ether. His lightning bolt hits the locked door and causes it to briefly pulse as the lightning travels all around the door until it dissipates. A diminutive creature skitters to a stop before the party. She looks up sternly with her little hands on her hips."Won't work. Won't Work. You need a key, ya see?" She pointed to a sign that clearly states, 'Magical Door, Key Required. Authorized Personnel Only'. The dwarf with the orc skin arms takes off as quickly as she arrived. What would the Party like to do?

Elaine helps Petunia up and they make their way towards the the War Quarter. The heroes fully descend into the Apothecarium. The floor is still wet from their slime encounter. They head down the hall to the wall with the three doors. They remember the right door led to the slug pit and the middle door was a supply closest. The left door is locked. What would the Party like to do?

Nur fires an earth spell punch from the back row at Little Jane.
