Capt.JohnPaul Posted December 4, 2011 Author Posted December 4, 2011 After three get across, the rest follow, for the sake of keeping the ball rolling. The party sees a statue, though a bit different from the original one. The statue's glowing eyes suggest it is powerful in wisdom. Its ring glows to honor its kings and gods. It speaks. "I don't like you. I respect you. Therefor, for the courage all of you have shown, I will not hold a grudge for the death of my comrade, he died courageously. But to get behind me into the royal room of the light, there is a test. The test will be 1 question, and you only have 1 guess. Your party leader must say boldly the party's decision. Get it wrong? Fight me. Clear? Now the question: 'What kite goes into the water?' I want specific answers here." declares the statue mummy.
Zepher Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 "Do we really have to do this?" mumbles Boomingham. "I think we could take this fellow. I say just answer it wrong..." "Is there a kite that's a type of bird that goes underwater to catch fish? I'm not much of a thinker... must be the years of drinking too much...."
Pandora Posted December 4, 2011 Posted December 4, 2011 "Do we really have to do this?" mumbles Boomingham. "I think we could take this fellow. I say just answer it wrong..." I kinda think we do old man, and I kinda think we'll end up fighting him anyway, or somebody, or something. You could just hit him if you want, but a moment's quiet contemplation with the minor goddess Wikia indicates that there are items in a parallel dimension called Paravanes - used by humans for... fun... apparently.
Capt.JohnPaul Posted December 4, 2011 Author Posted December 4, 2011 "Let's divi up this gold and get a move on. Zepher, I'm not sure if this is in character, but you sound mad at the speed of my quest, as you've been complaining. I completely understand, and if it is not in character, please read my post in Rules And Discussions. Thanks, Capt.JohnPaul
legobodgers Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 What about a kite that is flown by a really bad kite flyer on a boat?
Dannylonglegs Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 "look at his hand, the sigil on his shield. Does not a ray resemble a kite?"
legobodgers Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Good idea Sylph. How should we answer him, there are many different types of rays and we do not know how specific this creature is being.
Capt.JohnPaul Posted December 5, 2011 Author Posted December 5, 2011 Good idea Sylph. How should we answer him, there are many different types of rays and we do not know how specific this creature is being. Dannylonglegs, thanks for posting. Anyways, how specific? I wanna know the kingdom, phylum, class, order, genus, and species. Not really, please just don't say "fish" or "ray," an extra descriptive word would be fine.
Dannylonglegs Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 "Well, what do you guys think, manta ray? Like the one on his shield?"
Zepher Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 "Let's give it a try! Worse case scenario is that we get it wrong and this sucker has to face the King of the Desert."
Capt.JohnPaul Posted December 5, 2011 Author Posted December 5, 2011 The party seems to get to an answer, though the mummy is still waiting for a bold choice.
legobodgers Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Amorith addresses the statue,"Is the answer a manta ray."
Dannylonglegs Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Amorith addresses the statue,"Is the answer a manta ray." "Excuse me. I thought I was the leader. Ok, What is Manta ray?"
legobodgers Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Sorry, Sylph. I thought that we had reached an agreement. It won't happen again.
Capt.JohnPaul Posted December 6, 2011 Author Posted December 6, 2011 "Excuse me. I thought I was the leader. Ok, What is Manta ray?" "Do you mean an Animalia Chordata Chondrichthyes Elasmobranchii Myliobatiformes Myliobatidae Manta M. birostris?" asks the mummy? "Umm... sure?" replies Sylph. "Congratulations Sylph, you are very wise, using my ring for clues. I will share your wisdom to the world. All of you have proven yourself, please, enter the Royal Room. Though the inhabitants may be hostile... " The party walks through, and sees two figures. "Intruders! Attack!" commands one. PREPARE FOR BATTLE!

Zepher Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 "Hahaha. You think you are Generals and Kings?! HA! I am Lord of my land, King of this Desert, General in the Orcish Invasion. I have killed Orc, man, pirate, Scarab and many more! I do not fear you!" Boomingham attacks General San Di the MOCol from the front row. "Come along party of mine! Let's chop them to bits. Did they steal the treasure? If so, they certainly did a poor job of keeping it with them. Must be distracted easily. Speaking of which, have I ever told you the story of Old Man Arfy, member of my unit... I'm joking. Sheesh. I was born a long time ago, but my brain isn't going. "
legobodgers Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 Both me and Barur would be KO'd by a special damage so what should we do. Also, will the special damage be halved by standing in the back row?
Zepher Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 "Mr. Marvolous, stand in the back-row and attack the General with any one of your beautiful gems. Barur should stand in the back, heal himself, heal you, and then attack the general. Nyx and Sylph can keep battering the Guard until he goes down, and then join us in fighting the general, unless Nyx wishes to put one of them to sleep and we can focus on them one at a time."
legobodgers Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 "Yes sir, Larry Boomers" Amorith was in a good mood and felt like a good bit of earth magic. "I will attack General San Di the MOCol with earth magic from the back row"
Pandora Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 "Nyx and Sylph can keep battering the Guard until he goes down, and then join us in fighting the general, unless Nyx wishes to put one of them to sleep and we can focus on them one at a time." Unfortunately the only means we have at our disposal for putting anyone to sleep is you telling them another one of your stories, Larry. My Sandman's Parasol merely prevents me from being affected by sleep. This will be a long fight; I don't doubt our good Clerics will be required to heal us all at some point, so perhaps you could focus on that Barur? We're going to need you! Well, lets get this party started then. I shall bring out my trusty Amethyst and cast Darkness on the MOColian Palace Guard from the back row.
Zepher Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 <Can we pick Barur's actions for us, he doesn't seem to be around.>
Capt.JohnPaul Posted December 7, 2011 Author Posted December 7, 2011 <Can we pick Barur's actions for us, he doesn't seem to be around.> Most definitely. Or is that perhaps the QM's role? Anyways, we'll give him until tomorrow morning.
Aveal the black sheep Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 'AH don't think I'll give you guys that pleasure :P I can decide on my own.(sorry for my absence,it wasn't planned) These guys are really thought,I'll begin by healing myself otherwise their special alone can kill me'
Dannylonglegs Posted December 8, 2011 Posted December 8, 2011 "sorry for the delay, I'll target the guard. Front row." "Order of attack: Amorith Nyx Boomingham Barur Sylph"
