JimBee Posted February 2, 2012 Author Posted February 2, 2012 "You heroes are quite greedy given your profession. I promised you a reward once we got off of this island, and I intend to keep that promise. I'm afraid these gems are not part of the deal, I need them to direct my power until I am fully recovered. After that I will wrap up some internal family matters. No, I am not going try to defeat them. Do you really think someone even as powerful as I could take on the entire Ziegfried family? After that I will sail far away, and you shall never hear from me again. Do I really seem that evil to you that you must 'heroically' kill me? What you're about to attempt is murder, and I will have no choice but to defend myself."
CMP Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 "Do I really seem that evil to you that you must 'heroically' kill me? What you're about to attempt is murder, and I will have no choice but to defend myself." "Murder is to kill an innocent. The knife in your stomach you're about to receive is just justice. If the Ziegfrieds went through so much trouble to shackle you and your powers to this island, I am in no mood to see why." The sheer tenacity in his voice seemed to surprise Atramor himself. There was a day when he'd take any bribe. Why did he have to go and complicate it now?
Bricksandparts Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Alf whispers to the others. "If we can knock him out, we can take his sword which is his source of power."
Bricksandparts Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Alf throws a make-shift net at Atticus Ziegfried, and prepares for a fight.
Quarryman Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 "Okay, let's get this over with. Namyrra also prepares for a fight that seems all but inevitable." OoC: I'm in Riga, Latvia (freezing my megablocks off I might add) until Monday, but should be able to check in at least once or twice a day. If I don't and there's a need for Namyrra to do something Jebediahs can decide for her.
Jebediahs Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 "Well there's your answer Atticus. My comrades are eager to fight." Nur watches Alf's make-shift vine net fly towards the old mage.
JimBee Posted February 4, 2012 Author Posted February 4, 2012 Alf throws a make-shift net at Atticus Ziegfried, and prepares for a fight. QM Note: Uh what. The party declines the wizard's offer and prepares to fight. Before they can attack, however, a familiar song plays and the air grows hotter. The phoenix the party encountered earlier swoops in, reborn from the ashes and stronger than ever. The party members brace themselves and Whales and Thimlin take cover. PREPARE FOR BATTLE! Atticus Ziegfried Type: Humanoid Level: 10 Health: 400/400 Special 1: Hex (brainwashes attacker, causing the target to attack a random ally instead.) Special 2: Lesser Seal (performs curse on attacker, causing Sealed effect for the next turn or until remedied.) Special 3: Lesser Blind (uses magic to blind the attacker, causing Blinded effect for the next turn or until remedied.) Drops: Sword of Decay (WP: 5, once the target is inflicted with damage, they lose a quarter of the power of the strike each following turn for three turns. the effect cannot be compounded with more strikes. Suitable to Mages, Knights, and Barbarians) Note: Atticus is immune to all negative effects (besides KO). The special used is determined by die roll (50% for each). Phoenix Reborn (back row) Type: Fiery, Flying Level: 20 Health: 250/250 Special 1: Young Phoenix Tear (restores up to 50 health of Atticus) Special 2: Flame Burst (Causes 7 damage to all, regardless of row) Drops: Phoenix Essence Note: Young Phoenix Tear only used when Atticus has less than full health. QM Note: I do intend on actually taking the back row (Phoenix) into account this time.
CMP Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 "Oh, great....somebody put the bird to sleep." Atramor unsheathes his Sapper, and lunged at AStticus Ziegfried from the front row.
Bricksandparts Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 "Alexis, attack bird. Bird can't cause much damage to you! I'll get Atticus..." Alf attacks Atticus Ziegfried from the front row!
Quarryman Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 "If someone is going to attack the Phoenix we should probably seal&blind it, we could also just blind it and let it go ahead with useless free hits while we focus on Atticus." "Regardless of what we'll do about the Phoenix I'll drink my Nostrum to be better focused for the rest of the battle."
Jebediahs Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 "Good ideas, guys. Let's bring that old buzzard down. I'll cast a blindness spell on Phoenix Reborn from the back row."

Sandy Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Ellaria gringes as the dreadful phoenix appears again. Her weapon is still useless against it, but at least she could shower it with her ailing spells. Before that, Ellaria decides to consume her Nostrum in order to improve her performance.
Masked Builder Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 "Alright you crazy old man, prepare to go down! First let me take my mead. Then I will attack Atticus Ziegfried from the back row with my bow!" Alexis readied her bow for the coming fight, again wishing she didn't have to hurt the beautiful bird.
JimBee Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 Results of Round 1 of Final Battle En Sabah Nur vs. Phoenix Reborn - Blind Namyrra Uq - Consume Nostrum Alf Gregory vs. Atticus Ziegfried - Miss Atramor Gibbin vs. Atticus Ziegfried - Damage Alexis Fenral - Consume Mead Alexis Fenral vs. Atticus Ziegfried - Aim Ellaria Arbour - Consume Nostrum The epic battle begins. The infuriated wizard takes his stance, the mystical phoenix behind him. Nur begins by blinding the bird for the next three turns. Both Namyrra and Ellaria drink their nostrums, instilling a lucky-effect. Alf swings at Atticus, but the old wizard is more agile than he appears and evades it. Atramor tries the same, but tastes the cold steel of the evil blade as it slices across his face and upper torso. Alexis downs a bottle of mead before taking aim at Atticus (10x2=20). The battle rages on. Enemies: Atticus Ziegfried Type: Humanoid Level: 10 Health: 380/400 Special 1: Hex (brainwashes attacker, causing the target to attack a random ally instead.)

Quarryman Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 "Time to get started then. Darkness spell at Atticus from then back row !"
Masked Builder Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 "I shall attack you from the back row with my bow again! Let's hope this time I hit you."
CMP Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 I should have 12 health because of the Sand Worm Hide reducing damage. With a yell, Atramor jumps backward from Atticus, stumbling in the process. He ran one hand over his face, drawing a painful sting from the slash wound, which stretched down to his chest. "I cold use some help, Ellaria," he spits through the blood, and attacks Atticus again from the front row.
JimBee Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 I should have 12 health because of the Sand Worm Hide reducing damage. QM Note: Right, thank you for the reminder. Also, Quarry, you cannot use spells since you're out of ether.
Jebediahs Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 OoC: Namyrra has some ether as she consumed a tonic before the puzzle door...I think. "You like dabbling with forbidden magics so much Atticus...Namyrra, show him the true power of darkness!" Order of Actions: Namyrra Uq Ellaria Arbour Alf Gregory Atramor Gibbin Alexis Fenral Alexis Fenral En Sabah Nur Following his teammates' advice, Nur sought to defeat Atticus as quickly as possible with an earth spell from the back row.
Bricksandparts Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Alf attacks Atticus Ziegfried from the front row!
Sandy Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 "I cold use some help, Ellaria," he spits through the blood, and attacks Atticus again from the front row. "Maybe next round, Atramor. You're not likely to go down in one hit yet." Instead of healing, Ellaria focuses her lucky attack on Atticus, from the front row.
JimBee Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 QM Note: Ah, I see. Nur lent Namrrya his last tonic, correct?

Luckily Ellaria performs a Miracle, healing Atramor and Namrrya back to full health. Alf swings his Meteor Blade at the wizard (21), and Atramor gets his revenge by slashing Atticus across the cheek with the Sapper (21). Alexis tries to shoot him with an arrow, but the Ziegfried acts quickly by deflecting the arrow back at her (5 damage), and then hexing her. In her brainwashed state, she shoots an arrow at her ally Namrrya. The arrow goes through the mage's chest, instantly knocking her out. Before Nur realizes this, he overflows with power and sends a wave crashing down on both opponents, dealing 27 damage to both (double for the phoenix but halved again due to the back row).

Jebediahs Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 "Damn! I thought elves had stronger willpower...O_o" En Sabah Nur quickly drags Namyrra to the back row. He roughly removes the arrow from her chest before uncorking his vial of phoenix essence and pouring the liquid into her mouth. Alexis knocks another arrow and aims it at the party I think she's hexed until she receives a Remedy. "Somebody tacklestop her please."

JimBee Posted February 6, 2012 Author Posted February 6, 2012 QM Note: The Hex special does not act like the regular Hexed effect, it only forces the attacker to redirect their attack once.
Bricksandparts Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Alf decides to attack Phoenix Reborn from the Front Row instead. He decides it'd be good to get rid of the phoenix before taking out Atticus.
