Waterbrick Down Posted May 6, 2016 Author Posted May 6, 2016 Timothy (and most likely Petaldan) returns to the elemental. Timothy strikes out for the Aludel, painstakingly climbing down the glass tower once again. "The bright and the bold travelers return to my abode. What news of the realm, heroes?"
Rider Raider Posted May 6, 2016 Posted May 6, 2016 "The salty one has given some of his scent up for you." Timothy gives her the tonic bottle that has a small amount of the cologne in it. "You can now smell the scent whenever you wish".
dum Posted May 6, 2016 Posted May 6, 2016 Kid whispers to his teammates: Are we really gonna finish him off? There's no way we can bring him in?

"You can now smell the scent whenever you wish". QM Note: I'm treating the tonic bottle with the small amount of cologne as the same thing as the Sea Salt Cologne item you received earlier. Is that what you intended?

Rider Raider Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 OoC: How will anyone but Ezeran and Timothy be able to use the weapons, as Inferno and flood consume ether? "Petaldan, may I have the hammer?
Waterbrick Down Posted May 7, 2016 Author Posted May 7, 2016 "Yes, he does have a name. His name is Sudz." "Oh, such a handsome name. Strong, brave, one day perhaps we shall indeed meet." "I beg your pardon, my lady, but I think I forgot yours." "I am Kalalalali and your kindnesses shall not be forgotten noble heroes." OoC: How will anyone but Ezeran and Timothy be able to use the weapons, as Inferno and flood consume ether? "Petaldan, may I have the hammer? QM Note: As Flipz mentioned in the FAQ thread, the special ability doesn't cost ether to use.

The man is battered, tired, bloody, but he still fights. He believed in something. He cared. Kid can't let him get away with what he's done, but should he end his life? I can't do it. I can't kill him. I thought I could, dammit, but I can't. There has to be some other way. Can't we take the crystals he got, and let him go without the tonic recipe? We'll still get the job done, and Tonics will still remain to The Guild, but- Kid gulps anxiously. What kind of hero can't even finish the job? What kind of soldier just stops fighting for the life of a single stranger? He has him in his crosshairs, he and the others can end it now. His finger quivers on the trigger. Kid throws his crossbow on the ground. His face collapses into his hands. He failed. I can't do it.

QM Note: While this is amazing role-play, I want to be clear as a QM that I believe the Party is aiming to simply subdue Marco and Volatio and not kill them, hence even if they reach 0 HP, I will treat them as knocked out, unless otherwise stated by a party member who is specifically trying to kill them. Now this isn't to assume that the Guild or Town Watch won't kill them as punishment, so take that however you wish. Edited May 7, 2016 by Waterbrick Down

Waterbrick Down Posted May 7, 2016 Author Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Oh really? Well that just completely undermines my character development. Huh. So what do we make of this? QM Note: Well you still could rationalize that Kid thinks continuing this fight could potentially lead to someone's death if they're not careful and he'd rather not take that chance. After rereading through the party's discussion on the matter, it does indeed seem like the Party's intent is to kill. So as a compromise in order to be fair to all, I'll leave the option to state in your action whether you are intending to do non-lethal damage or not. Edited May 7, 2016 by Waterbrick Down
MysticModulus Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Ezeran turns to Kid while dodging an aggresive move from Marco. "You do what you must but I will not let these people leave with one of the guilds secrets. You don't break into a house and steal a mans means to support himself. This is nothing but an act of war and if we let them leave there is only a matter of time before the guild finds out. And one way or another they will find out. Then the houses will be drawn into a most bloody conflict. There are no good or bad guys, just causality and you will not get the intended effect by your actions."

Palathadric Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 I hand the Magma Maul to Timothy and take the Brine Blade. I remember why I didn't recall Kalalalali's name immediately. "Thank you so much, Kalalalali! You and Sudz are both so generous. I'm sure that if you ever meet, you'll have so much fun together. Please do have a lovely day! "Where do we go from here?" I ask, turning to Timothy.
Alfadas Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 We need to take down that darned Jinn first! And we can't show weakness now! These man knew good and well that breaking in to the, for them enemies, could have serious consequences. Torald attack the Jinn, front row.
BountyBeast Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 "You... are coming with us... or else." Hunkan attacks Volatio from the front row.

I need to focus on Marco since the genie seems to deflect my spells! I have a feeling it will transfer to him eventually anyway! Krep up the good work my friend!"
Rider Raider Posted May 7, 2016 Posted May 7, 2016 "Where do we go from here?" I ask, turning to Timothy. "I'd say home. We could go to wherever Dr. Cula seems to be searching and call it a day, or we could regroup with the others."

I- I'm just weak.Kid looks at his crossbow, considering Ezeran's words. He was right, but a death sentence was still not the right way to go. Kid picks up his crossbow and loads it with a safer bolt. Fine. I'll keep fighting. But we aren't killing him. Kid repeats, but with non-lethal attacks.
