Heroica RPG - Quest #46: Product Testing

[Endgame]

I know, but the guard has the fifty fifty chance of protecting me from the special, correct?

The special has already occurred, technically: the Death Note has already spawned, and the Death Note has no special: it simply runs on a timer.

There is no avoiding it, sorry.

LOL. I'm not talking about the Death Note's special, I'm talking about Inky's special.

Though if there's no avoiding it, sorry.

"Alex, do not worry about the Death Note, I will take care of it." Xander attacks the death note from the back row.

Althior sends a wind spell at the Djinn and a Light spell at the Death Note, both from the back row.

"Let's take the free hit, we don't want to risk the Djiin healing everybody. though it is your call."

"Let's take the free hit, we don't want to risk the Djiin healing everybody. though it is your call."

"I don't want free hits! If you target the Shambler and go first in the Battle Order, I'll stay away from the Djinn."

QM Note: Should've made the special damage make the Death Note blow up instantly.

Round Nine of Spin n' Shambler Showdown

>Althior VS Spin Djinn (back): Hit (10+19=29-15=14 damage)

>Althior VS Death Note (back): Special Damage (miss)

>Alex VS Ink Death Note (front): Special Damage (miss)

>Xander VS Death Note (back): Special Damage Hit (29x3=87-5=82 damage)

>Ink Shambler VS Althior: 4 damage

Althior flings a wind spell at the panting Djinn, and attempts to throw a light spell at the Death Note. The Death Note's demotivational chanting, however, throws off his aim - and does the same for Alexandre. It nearly has the same effect on Xander, but his hunter abilities allow him to sink a mighty shot into the Death Note.

The Ink Shambler swats at Althior for a semi-decent amount of damage.

"NoOooO... mY inCanTaTION!! "

Round Ten of Spin n' Shambler Showdown

>Alex VS Ink Shambler (front): Damage (3 damage)

>Xander VS Death Note (back): Miss Hit

>Althior heals himself: Heal more (10x2=20+19=39 damage healed)

>Althior VS Death Note Ink Shambler (back): Shield: Magic Vortex (19+10=29 health restored, 10+10+19=39x2=78-8=70 damage to Shambler, 10+19+5=34-15=19 damage to Djinn)

Alex attacks the Shambler. With the stump of his arm he bludgeons Alex's face, his shiled absorbing a good majority of the blow. Xander takes aim, and fires. The arrow soars through the air, eventually landing in the heart of the demonic incantation. With one last scream, the incantation fades away...

Althior heals himself to his prime, and conjures another Magic Vortex. The magic emitting for the Vortex does some serious damage to the Shambler and causes the Djinn to wince.

"YoU'll pAY dEaRly fOR tHat...!! "

[K-Nut]

Althior sends two wind spells at the Djinn from the back row.

[Capt.JohnPaul]

Alexandre reels back, holding his bleeding nose. Oh, wait. Nevermind that.

Alex attacks the Shambler. With the stump of his arm he bludgeons Alex's face,

"Well, you're one step ahead of me aren't you?"

Inky, front row.

Round Eleven of Spin n' Shambler Showdown

>Althior VS Spin Djinn (back): Hit (10+19=29x2=58-15=43 damage)

>Althior VS Spin Djinn (back): Hit (10+19=29x2=58-15=43 damage)

>Alex VS Ink Shambler (front): Miss

>Xander VS Ink Shambler(back): Special Damage: Censor! (10 damage, Badly Poisoned, Sealed)

Althior unloads two consecutive windspells in the direction of the Spin Djinn. The Djinn's arms pinwheel as the blasts hit him full force. Alexandre attempts to shorten the Shambler's other arm, but misses. Xander was in the process of reloaing when the Ink Shambler wrapped him up in a gooey tentacle. As the Shambler held the squirming Xander aloft, small tendrils began to rise from the tentacle. They inched their way up to Xander's mouth, gluing nearly completely shut. The Shambler dismisses his subject... by throwing him across the void. Xander hits the ground with a resounding thud, and the Shambler's poison takes it's toll.

"eNjOy."

[Capt.JohnPaul]

"I could heal you. But I think I should save the remedy in case we get a quite nasty pill."

For now, Inky, front row.

[K-Nut]

Althior pours a Remedy down Xander's throat before sending a wind spell at the Djinn from the back row.

[posades]

"Althior, do you mind healing me? I can target the Djinn if you don't want the skeleton decoy to take a free hit."

[K-Nut]

"Sure," Althior remedies and heals Xander.

>Alex VS Ink Shambler (front): Damage (16-13=3 damage)

>Xander VS Spin Djinn (back): Special Damage (Huff and Puff and...! 12 damage to everyone, forced to fight in back row.)

Althior shoves a remedy down Xander's maw, and follow up with a healing spell. Alex rushes the Shambler yet again, only to get his rump whipped by his uncrippled tentacle. Xander pulls an arrow back and fires... when suddenly the Djin retaliates. Unleashing a might gust of wind, he deflects the arrow and sends the party spiralling backwards, each of them landing on their backs.
