Heroica RPG - Quest#135: Kill Baba

[swils]

With Arx trying to keep the way clear, he and Thormanil follow along with the rest of the group, the former bracing himself against the licks of flames at his sides.

[Sandy]

Together the party made their way to the person standing in the forest clearing. They saw that it was in fact an elven lady with flowing blue hair, but they had not noticed the immense dragon standing in the roaring flames until it was too late to back down. The elf was trying to fend off the dragon with a wand and a frosty aura.

"Stay back, you fell wyrm!"

"Oh relax, sad one. You are but a snack to me. The real meal is walking right there." The dragon's burning eyes turned to the party. "So glad you could make it to my little barbeque. Sorry I started before you, I was just growing a little tired of waiting."

The elf turned to the heroes, with terror and confusion in her eyes. They could she she had been crying.

"Are you the mistress of this wyrm, Fenarian?" she asked, aiming her words at Namyrra. "Command it to fly elsewhere, then, lest half of Spesialia is burned to the ground! Why fight over a scorched and barren land? Is there no end to the devious tricks your ilk can muster?"

"The sad one seems to think I work for the pale ones. How amusing! I, Rastaban the Brimstone Dragon, am my own master! And I am still hungry."

Perhaps Thormanil could convince the mighty dragon otherwise. What would the heroes do?

[swils]

Stepping through the wall of flames, Thormanil addressed Rastaban, while helping the elf to her feet. "Rastaban, is it? You've got a bit of a temper, don'tcha. What's brought a regal beast such as yourself to snacking on harmless little elves?"

[Chromeknight]

Nerwen moves closer to the elf and plays a love serenade to restore any health she'd lost.

"Dragons..." Johon mutters. He waits impatiently, burning branches falling around them.

[Sandy]

Stepping through the wall of flames, Thormanil addressed Rastaban, while helping the elf to her feet. "Rastaban, is it? You've got a bit of a temper, don'tcha. What's brought a regal beast such as yourself to snacking on harmless little elves?"

"Are you deaf, dragoon? I am here to eat - eat you to be specific. I only started this little bonfire because I was bored, and the elves got in the way. I don't even like their taste, all skin and bones!"

"You assaulted my entourage! You killed everyone! ...Zanyah..."

"Oh, don't start bawling again! I'm pretty sure a few escaped my jaws. Not that they will survive long in my personal purgatory."

"I shall vanquish you for what you did, you hell spawn!" The elf looked at the heroes, grief having turned to anger. "Which side are you on, anyway?"

Nerwen moves closer to the elf and plays a love serenade to restore any health she'd lost.

QM Note: Battle Songs cannot be used outside of battle, nor can they be used on the Minstrel herself. Sorry!

Current Weather: Burning Hot (doubles fire damage, halves ice damage; causes 2 fire-elemental damage to all combatants every battle round, and per each update outside of battle.)

[swils]

"Oh, I can hear just fine. You got hungry and, because you're so much bigger than everything else, just decided to do as you pleased. I've met your kind before.. Earned a reputation back in our Hall as being a Dragon slayer. I found no pleasure in it, but you don't scare me. Now, if it's a meal you're after, we could talk like civilized beings. I'm sure the game we're chasing will throw feast after feast at us, amd we'll fell them all the same. That's gonna be a lot of wasted meat if you insist on trying to eat us."

[Chromeknight]

I meant that Nerwen was healing the other elf, not herself.

As for battle songs outside battle, fair enough, I can see it in the rules.

Nerwen coughs and splutters in the smoke.

[Sandy]

"Oh, I can hear just fine. You got hungry and, because you're so much bigger than everything else, just decided to do as you pleased. I've met your kind before..

I'm sure the game we're chasing will throw feast after feast at us, amd we'll fell them all the same. That's gonna be a lot of wasted meat if you insist on trying to eat us."

"You still don't seem to understand me, dragoon. I am not here just to eat anything that comes my way - I am here to eat you. You can call it a favor for a friend. A very old friend, with a very enticing voice... Sorry, can't really help myself. Gotta do what she tells me to."

"By the stars, what have I gotten myself involved in? Is this wyrm really here causing mayhem because of you?"

[swils]

The dragon's meaning finally strikes him. "Ahh, so we have a mutual... friend, then. Let us help you, then. While none of us may stand her equal individually, we are the ones who will be seeing her to her end. Surely we can break whatever hold she has on you." He pauses, looking at Arx. "Or at least tell me how to protect Arx from her spell; if she can turn you, who's to say what she could do to a younger dragon."

[Quarryman]

Namyrra stands quietly at the back, content for now with letting Thormanil do the talking.

[Palathadric]

"We're not going to enter into a truce with a servant of the enemy here!" I say angrily. "I have a reputation of being a dragon-healer, but I heal dragons that are worth healing not those who mindlessly give their souls away to the devil. Dragons are above such things and if you cannot control your mind, then you are not fit to possess the body you do. Come at us and fall quickly, you worm!"

[Sandy]

The dragon's meaning finally strikes him. "Ahh, so we have a mutual... friend, then. Let us help you, then. While none of us may stand her equal individually, we are the ones who will be seeing her to her end. Surely we can break whatever hold she has on you." He pauses, looking at Arx. "Or at least tell me how to protect Arx from her spell; if she can turn you, who's to say what she could do to a younger dragon."

The brimstone dragon grins, showing the full set of razor-sharp teeth dripping with saliva and blood in his mouth.

"Finally you understand who I am talking about. She is genuinely worried you might defeat her, or else she would not have sent me here. She knows one cannot truly be a friend with a dragon without forming a bond with them from the day they hatch. Just like you and your adorable little pet have done. I am going to eat him, too, you know, so whatever hints I might have to give to you would be futile. You certainly haven't convinced me otherwise, dragoon."

"We're not going to enter into a truce with a servant of the enemy here!" I say angrily. "I have a reputation of being a dragon-healer, but I heal dragons that are worth healing not those who mindlessly give their souls away to the devil. Dragons are above such things and if you cannot control your mind, then you are not fit to possess the body you do. Come at us and fall quickly, you worm!"

"At last, someone with a sense not to negotiate with a dragon! Help me defeat the fell wyrm, strangers, and I shall be ever in your debt." The elf raised her radiant wand up high.

"So be it. It's barbeque time!"

The dragon flapped his wings as he lunged towards the heroes, summoning serpentine flames and fiery spirits to attack with him.

[Quarryman]

"Well, well, well. I shall slay you like I've slain countless foes before you, and then I'll raise you from the dead to have you as a pet."

"Now, to business. I expect us to suffer two free hits this round, but as long as they're from will'o'wisps they hardly matter. I'll target that oversized flying bad breath, master Nihai, master Pretzel, please take care of the flamboas. Miss Calmcacil it would be excellent if you could sing that same song as you did in the previous battle. Syrma, it seems we're on the same side for now, we can talk about our differences afterwards, but for now it would be great if you could target Rastaban with your scroll of frailty."

Battle order:

Thormanil

Nerwen

Pretzel

Syrma

Namyrra

Arx

Johon

Namyrra sends a Wind spell at Rastaban through her Crystal Mace from the back row.

[Chromeknight]

The heat made breathing hard, Nerwen had no defense from the flames flickering around. She nods at Namyrra's words and focuses, weaving the best of the cackling fires into a lucky chant

Edited July 9, 2015 by Chromeknight

[Palathadric]

I wield my Dual Staff against Flamboas A and B from the Front Row.

"These guys are going to be no problem," I say, almost disappointedly.

[Quarryman]

"Oh right, I had forgotten about that staff of yours, that simplifies things a bit. Master Nihai, it would be nice if you and Arx could target will-o-wisps A and B, master Johon, please target will-o-wisp C."

Battle order updated

[swils]

"Do you think yourself Baba's superior? Why would you fight in her stead when she is wary of us? You'll be going hungry today."

Thormanil attacks Will'o'wisp A with Shishkebab from the front row, while Arx attacks Will'o'wisp B from the back row.

[Sandy]

"Syrma, it seems we're on the same side for now, we can talk about our differences afterwards, but for now it would be great if you could target Rastaban with your scroll of frailty."

Syrma nodded seriously.

"I never imagined I would ever be fighting side by side with a Fenarian, but your companions pique my interest. A wood elf, a dragoon, a barbarian and a clergyman... Surely such a rag-tag troupe cannot be agents of Fenario."

Results of Round One of the Forest Fire Battle:

Thormanil (Shishkebab) vs. Will-o'-the-Wisp A (twice) - Hit (Wisp A: 166 health-(64+64=128 dmg)=38 health)

>Nerwen sings Lucky Chant - (All other allies: increased battle results; Nerwen: -10 ether)

Pretzel (Dual Staff) vs. Flamboa A (& Flamboa B) - Enhancement/Damage (Dual Staff: +1 WP)

>Syrma (Scroll of Frailty) vs. Rastaban - Success (Rastaban: fragile; Syrma: -1 ether)

>Namyrra (Wind through Crystal Mace) vs. Rastaban - Shield/Special Damage (Raise Army - no effect)

>Arx vs. Will-o'-the-Wisp B - Special Damage/Breath (Wisp B: 166 health-(47x2=94 dmg)=72 health)

Johon vs. Will-o'-the-Wisp C - Extra Critical Hit/Special Damage/Steal (Wisp C: 166 health-42 dmg=124 health)

Flamboa B - Free Hit on Thormanil (Thormanil: no deflection, 57 health+13 SP-34 dmg=36 health)

Will-o'-the-Wisp D - Free Hit on Nerwen (Nerwen: 30 health+2 SP-(21/2=11 dmg)=21 health)

Rastaban - Countdown -1

As the battle gets on the way, Thormanil skewers one of the fiery spirits with his Shishkebab. Nerwen starts singing a lucky chant once again, and Pretzel enhances the Dual Staff. Syrma makes Rastaban fragile for a while, but Namyrra doesn't get a chance to cast a spell on the dragon yet. In the meanwhile Arx showers a wisp with an icy breath, and Johon whips another one. A few enemies are able to make counterattacks, and Rastaban draws deep breath. The heat still scorches the heroes that are not protected from fire.

If Namyrra agrees and if Thormanil gets a heal, he attacks Rastaban from the front row with the Dragonsbane Lance. If not, he continues his attack against the Will'o'wisp A w/ Shishkebab (twice).

Arx repeats against Will'o'wisp B.

I repeat my attack, wondering how to do things differently.

[Quarryman]

"That could most definitely work."

Namyrra uses a grand potion on Thormanil.

Battle order updated.

Nerwen attacks Wisp A with the party maracas then segues into a reprise of the lucky chant.
