xxlrocka Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 "A giant bee, huh?" Erik smells one of the flowers. I bet they smell nice..... Drake thought. Drake sniffs the flowers too. "How do they smell. I think they smell quite nice.....though I can almost smell a foul stench." "Foul stench is coming from a sticky golden thing. Oh, wait, that's some gold we dropped." *Picks up gold* "There we go."

I have corrected that now. Both Erik and Drake felt a little drowsy after sniffing the flowers, as the buzzing got louder and louder. Strangely the party seemed almost to expect the giant yet adorable bee that swarmed over them... ...but they probably weren't expecting the creepers that shot out from the flowers! The party, with Captain Hlin Horrkkba of the Ve'er Town Watch standing resolutely alongside them, must prepare for battle!

Endgame Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) D'aww, it's so adorable. "It looks like it eats orphans." Which is exactly why it looks adorable! Hlin, go for that buzzing menace - if you get a surgical strike, it'll be massive damage. Thge rest of us have to focus our efforts on these creepers - I'll attack creeper A from the front row with my longsword. Order: Hlin Sorrow Mizuki Flamerobe Nagure Eric "Thinking back Eric, didn't you express concern about the mansion moving again if it popped up randomly today? perhaps the map was not some old scrap of paper butfor navigation.The circled area could quite possibly be where this Maginastra is traveling next. Unfortunately, between the suit of armor and the lion monolith, we can only get about 1 sentence's worth information. Stumbling blidnly around here is not fun." Edited May 7, 2012 by Endgame Quote
Myrddyn Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "This looks like it could get tricky. I hope we have better luck with this battle than we did with the snake. Oh well, I'll go for Creeper C, from the front row, and try out my new spear. And you could be right, Sorrow. Or perhaps the mansion came from the circled area? I did consider stealing it, but I've seen that map in the library anyway. I suppose we could just to annoy this Maginastra, though. " Quote
Tachyon Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Mizuki grabs her new dagger and tries to slice Creeper D from the front row. Quote

The only humanoid we have seen is the knight, and he certainly didn't need a map. I think someone else is behind this, whether it be a mage or spirit or some other type of ghastly thing. Quote

I think someone else is behind this, whether it be a mage or spirit or some other type of ghastly thing. "Well, I assume the Maginastra is in here somewhere, and there is at least one other floor. He could be up here. And yeah, I'd say he's some kind of mage. Just 'cos of the house that appears overnight, the statue and armour that talks, the weird doors, and the unicorn/pegasus and all that..." Quote
Costy Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 If he has kidnapped the children, why is he hiding them here. I think it is not his intent to harm the children, but to save them. All the children we have rescued so far have been unharmed and seem to like the guardians that we defeated. He must believe that he is doing them some good by having them here. Quote
Tachyon Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Do you think that the Magnistra is the magical embodiment of the house ? Quote
Myrddyn Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) "Yes, but save them from what? And why not just tell their parents or Hlin about the danger?" OOC: That was at Nagure. Edited May 8, 2012 by Myrddyn Quote
Costy Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "Yes, but save them from what? And why not just tell their parents or Hlin about the danger? That I am not too sure. Perhaps he is saving them from their self. He might believe that he is making their life better by taking them from their parents. He may not trust the parents or the parents may not trust him to save their children. Quote
Myrddyn Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "You could be correct, but currently it appears to me that the chances of him trying to save them from a real danger are outweighed by the chances of him being crazy." Quote
Costy Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "You could be correct, but currently it appears to me that the chances of him trying to save them from a real danger are outweighed by the chances of him being crazy." He is most certainly crazy, but what he is doing he must believe is right. The difference between a hero and a villain is only a point of view. Quote
xxlrocka Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "Fighting against a bumblebee and some plants. Should be easy taking out the plants....with my new greatsword! Oh yes...." I attack creeper A with greatsword from the front row. Quote
Myrddyn Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "There's lots of them, Drake. We need to each target a different one, so they can't run around unhindered causing mischief." "And Nagure, even though he may think he's right, we should still get the children back to their parents." Quote
Costy Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "And Nagure, even though he may think he's right, we should still get the children back to their parents." Yes of course. I was never saying we shouldn't take the children back, just that he was a nutcase with a plan and that he thought he was doing the right thing. Quote
Endgame Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "Hlin stated that there was a dark power in the mine that bled out in the town, and a band of heroes had to go snuff it out. Perhaps our good friend the Maginastra is afraid the dark power still lingers? Incredibly unlikely, but you never know with wizards - especailly those who kidnap children." Quote
Myrddyn Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "Perhaps. But currently, both you, (Sorrow) and Drake are targeting Creeper A. Perhaps one of you should change target, although it may be unnecessary as Hlin can't quite die, even with bad luck, however he would be in no shape to continue fighting." Quote
Rumble Strike Posted May 8, 2012 Author Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) QM Note:- See how things are more interesting when you guys actually talk to each other? To keep things moving with the outage I will run this round with Drake's original target. Feel free to beat it into him next round about the importance of reading who others have targeted and not allowing the enemy free hits. Round One of the Bumblebee Guardian Battle Hlin vs Buzzy - Shield (Surgical Strike) Grrrr! Sorrow vs Creeper A - Critical Hit Mizuki vs Creeper D - Hit Flamerobe vs Creeper A - Shield (Sentinel) Nagure vs Creeper B - Extra Critical Hit Erik vs Creeper C - Hit Creeper E - Free hit on Hlin The battle of the Bumblebee Guardian starts off with Captain Hlin Horrkkba of the Ve'er Town Watch, showing that his skill with a blade was not hyperbole, ruthlessly cutting into Buzzy with a devastating array of slashes (-30). The party takes great courage from this, and all pile on to their enemies with their newly acquired weapons. Sorrow hits Creeper A with a huge blow of his new blade (-13), poisoning the Creeper (-1). Mizuki gets a hit on Creeper D with her dagger (-8), whilst Flamerobe gets his shield ready to protect the party from all physical damage next round (negative effects will still occur if triggered). Nagure isn't phased by his new axe and carries on where he left off with a massive swing (-18) at Creeper B, nearly felling it, and Erik follows up with a spear thrust on Creeper C (-8). The untargetted Creeper E rakes its thorny vines against Hlin (-4). The battle continues!

Myrddyn Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Erik stabs at Creeper D again from the front row with his spear.(the same thing I did last time) "Good work everyone!" Quote
Endgame Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 "Lawmen such as myself lets miniscule blows like that roll of our backs!" gloated Hlin, trying to reassure the party that he was fine. The flesh wound said otherwise. Same action for me and Hlin as last round! Flamerobe, please traget an untargeted enemy - lest you want to make hlin a meatshield?

Tachyon Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) Mizuki stares at the Creeper D before slicing the iternal parts of the plant apart from the front row OOC: Shouldn't Erik be aiming for creeper C ? Edited May 8, 2012 by zakura Quote
