Alfadas Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 "Let's hope we don't meet that thing again, it is way to powerful for us. But nice to have you back, Waldorf."
MysticModulus Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Ezeran turns to Waldorf. "We need every scrap of information however trivial concerning that creature, what can you tell us? Is it only one monster? Is it a result of some experiment? How fast does it heal its wounds?" Ezeran ponders these questions before turning back at the other heroes. "Do we try to track it down or should we stage an ambush or the like?" Edited October 29, 2015 by MysticModulus
halixon Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Windus brushed the dirt off his tunic. "That was interesting. I've never really fought a plant, much less a monster." Edited October 29, 2015 by Windusky
Palathadric Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 "Let's hope we don't meet that thing again, it is way to powerful for us. But nice to have you back, Waldorf." "What are you saying? We are here to destroy that creature and we will do so. We didn't come here to stroll in the garden...as nice as it is. We should hunt it down and bring it to its end. Unfortunately, where I came from I always had squires who did the 'hunting down' part..."

Alfadas Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 "I am just saying, we do need to be careful around that... thing. It might have some nasty surprises... But if we run in to it, I will fight with all my power!

But if we run in to it, I will fight with all my power! "That's why we need a strategy, and we need more information to form said strategy." Ezeran turns to Waldorf. "It must have some weakness, right?"
Palathadric Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 I sheath my sword. "Is that a kind of plant you planted or did it come from outside the garden?"
Sandy Posted October 30, 2015 Author Posted October 30, 2015 "Let's hope we don't meet that thing again, it is way to powerful for us. But nice to have you back, Waldorf." "Thank you, fellows! But I'm afraid it will strike again if we don't take it down somehow. For some reason it seems to be after me, seeing as it jumped over Annabelle... Not that I would want anything to happen to you, honeypie!" "No offense, dearie, but what makes you so special?" "Is that a kind of plant you planted or did it come from outside the garden?" "No way! The patrons would not want an enormous carnivorous plant in their cherished gardens. They want their flowers pretty and still." "Yip yip yip!" Annabelle's poodle began to yap suddenly. It had spotted the fleeing monster. "Good girl, Frau-frau! Come on, gentlemen! Let's chase it down!" The girl and her poodle ran after the monster. Would the heroes follow?
MysticModulus Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Ezeran sighs as the girl runs off in pursuit of her furball dog. He turns to the other heroes. "A damsel in distress, I guess we have no choice but to bring her and her dog to rescue?" Ezeran starts to run. Edited October 30, 2015 by MysticModulus
Alfadas Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 "I guess you are right. Charge!" Torald starts running.
halixon Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Windus follows suit after Ezeran and Torald, and beckons to Paladin to follow. Edited October 30, 2015 by Windusky
Palathadric Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Petaldan whips out his sword once again, and joins the pursuit. "We will surely slay the fiendish beast this time around."
Sandy Posted November 1, 2015 Author Posted November 1, 2015 When he saw the heroes dash after Annabelle, Waldorf got up quickly. "H-hey, don't leave me behind! Waaait!" The chase took them down the Sungold Hill until it ended at the Marketplace. It was bustling with people in the afternoon rush, so the party lost sight of the monster. "Hmph! Where did it go?" Annabelle is approached by the owner of the fashion boutique. "Can I help you, darling? Looking for a new hat? You do know hennins are out of style this winter season, don't you?" "Don't tease the girl, Fabian!" Another merchant interrupted. "Not everyone wants to dress up like a pompous clown." "Nyeh nyeh, look at that clown, running around like a headless chicken!" laughed another merchant, pointing at Waldorf who was flailing around the square, peeking around every corner. "Where can it be?! I know it's going to jump at me again any moment now!" The mage bumped into the burly smith. "Careful, lad! You'll soon run into one of my blades if you're not careful!" "Nyeh, as if your dull blades could even hurt anyone, Anwyl!" "Watch your tongue, Gnomeo, or our hunky smith will show you that it is hammer time", the tailor smirked. "And Portia, I wouldn't talk anything about fashion if I were in your shoes. Who wears baby blue nowadays, anyway?" "How dare you?!" "Stop your arguing, colleagues!" the bombcrafter interrupted. For some reason the other merchants flinched and obeyed. "These people are obviously from Heroica. I am Dain Almight, a close friend of some of your peers. How can I help you?"
MysticModulus Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Ezeran stops running and tries to look casual and relaxed. "Good day to you Master Dain! We are currently conducting an investigation that has lead us here. Have you seen a small dog running along here or perhaps you have noticed some strange big plant recently?" Ezeran looks at the other heroes in the hopes that they will follow his lead.
Alfadas Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 "Hello Miss Portia. Have you seen a big, green maneating plant monster running around? Or perhaps a small dog? You see, we are looking for them, but we lost them in this crowd."
Palathadric Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 "We are on important quest to catch some man-eating creature. We could certainly use any assistance you can provide us with. What are those things behind you?"
halixon Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Windus tries to look above the crowd, with no sight of the monster. He lets the other members of the group talk to the salesmen. This month is going to be really busy for me, we're moving to a house in Oklahoma, and our schedules will be really tight. So i won't be too available until December. Whenever a battle happens, i'll just take the back row and deal attacks.
Sandy Posted November 3, 2015 Author Posted November 3, 2015 QM Note: Sorry, I was preoccupied yesterday. Ezeran stops running and tries to look casual and relaxed. "Good day to you Master Dain! We are currently conducting an investigation that has lead us here. Have you seen a small dog running along here or perhaps you have noticed some strange big plant recently?" "A plant monster? Can't say that I have... There are always a lot of stray dogs loitering around the Kingless Crown restaurant, though." "Ha! My Frau-frau is not a stray!" "Hello Miss Portia. Have you seen a big, green maneating plant monster running around? Or perhaps a small dog? You see, we are looking for them, but we lost them in this crowd." "Do you mean like the one back at the Guildhouse? Why would something like it be around here?" "I saw it", the smith interrupted. "It climbed up my chimney to the rooftops. I watched it disappear behind the restaurant over there." Following the merchants' clues, the party made their way through the crowd into the fancy restaurant at the edge of the square. Annabelle's poodle was barking in front of the door. "Yip! Yip! Yip!" "Frau-frau, there you are! Gentlemen, this is the Kingless Crown, owned by the world-renowned Chef Yasmar. My father takes our family to dine here from time to time, and the food really is to die for." "What would the plant monster want from a place like this? Well, I guess the only way to find out is to enter... Gulp..." The party pushed open the doors and entered the restaurant. The rhytmic clicking of forks and knives was overladen with a hubbub of talk and laughter. All the customers were obviously upper class citizens. A golem was standing by the door, and it was not pleased to see the rag-tag group dash in. Its voice was dry like a desert. "Excuse me. Do you have a reservation?"
Palathadric Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 "No, my good sir, we are in fact here on an important mission. We have reason to suspect that a dangerous creature may be lurking about. The little dog was following it and led us here. Of course, I am inclined to believe the dog is mistaken, but just in case, have you seen any strange sights?"
MysticModulus Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Ezeran adresses the Golem. "Dear master golem, we are heroes of Heroica and we are hear to investigatr a potentially lethal threat to your customers. It's imperative that you let us through to guarantee this establishments safety."
Alfadas Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Torald wisely keeps his mouth shut. He doesn't want to cause any trouble. He also looks around.
Sandy Posted November 4, 2015 Author Posted November 4, 2015 "No, my good sir, we are in fact here on an important mission. We have reason to suspect that a dangerous creature may be lurking about. The little dog was following it and led us here. Of course, I am inclined to believe the dog is mistaken, but just in case, have you seen any strange sights?" The golem did not seem to take Petaldan seriously. "A dangerous creature, you say? Nothing is as dangerous as our Chef Yasmar when he gets upset, so you better depart immediately if you are not planning to eat here, little boy." Windus looks around. Windus saw that most of the tables in the hall were reserved. A young waitress pushed a cart filled with food from table to table, giggling incessantly to the customers. There were a couple of wizards near the window that were eyeing them curiously. Ezeran adresses the Golem. "Dear master golem, we are heroes of Heroica and we are hear to investigatr a potentially lethal threat to your customers. It's imperative that you let us through to guarantee this establishments safety." "Oh, you are from Heroica? Why did you not say so right away." The golem's whole demeanor changed in a split second. "Your colleagues once saved my life, back at the 400th Foundation Day Ball, so I trust you know what you are doing. You may call me Maître-d'. Let me know if I can be of assistance." At that moment, there was a loud clang and clatter. "Oopsies! Sorry, y'all, it was just clumsy ol' me!" The waitress announced and giggled some more. The Maître-d' sighed. "And that would be Phoebe."
Alfadas Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 "Hi there Phoebe, allow me to help you clean it up". Torald seems to like her.
