[Flare]

Battle Order: (South)

Pizarro

Magellan

Benji

Guts

Sarick

Mizuki

Benji attacks Riot Leader Nothus from the back row.

Pizarro also throws a water bomb.

Edited September 12, 2012 by Flare

[Scubacarrot]

"Benji, let Pizarro use his Water bomb to Bombard, he can do a lot of damage that way."

Guts takes a Grand Potion, Magellan attacks Eurose, Mizuki takes a potion (if I am not allowed to say that for zakura, mizuki attacks the Lizardman instead).

[Tachyon]

Mizuki chugs down a potion from the back row

OOC:Thanks, Scuba for controlling my character.

[Quarryman]

Seeing a lot of heroes running to aid her group in the northern battle Namyrra had to come up with a new battle order.

(OoC: seeing as -obelix- hasn't posted since Monday can we please get this moving without him, thanks. )

Updated battle order North:

Xut

Columbus

Cortes

Namyrra

Namyrra

Hybros

Cinna

Erik Tyrvarr

Dreyrugr

Nerwen

Thalion

[-obelix-]

Sorry for not posting I was here the whole time. I thought that I don't have an action on the turn I was revived.

Again Thalion casts a fire spell at Gnomish Rioter from the back row.

[Xarrzan]

Sarick had been so focused on the mob that he did not notice the fallen heroes at first. He spotted one he did not recognize. Sarick used his Phoenix Essence on a unknown ranger with an evil energy (AlexanderVandangant). "Get up," said Sarick. "You need to learn from this fight."

Sarick focused his next action as an attack against the Lizardman Rioter from the back row with frost magic.

[Wedge09]

Thank you Xarrzan, I think I'm revived and I'm ready to fight, right??

Alexander is a bit confused because it had just been defeated by the Riot Leader but anyway he thanked the alien who revived he: Thank you for revive me, I am happy to make your acquaintance.

What do you mean by evil energy??

After saying that he prepare to continue the battle and decided to attack from the back row the Lizardman Rioter.

Namyrra commands Xut to attack the werehyena, and the dark spirit successfully defeats him. Columbus crafts another Lightning Bomb to use, while Cortes bombards all enemies with a Fire Bomb. Boreal suffers 30 damage and Zephyroth 15 damage, while the rest of their underlings are defeated. Cortes sustains 10 damage due to Boreal's Frost Aura. Namyrra pummels Boreal with two dark spells, causing a total of 228 damage with them. Hybros continues by throwing the bladerang at the riot leaders for 38 damage each, and the Clock Cog at Zephyroth for 24 damage. Cinna enchants Mauryl, increasing the weapon's power by one at the cost of 10 ether. Erik misses his strike, but Dreyrugr manages to mug Boreal for 11 damage, gaining 11 gold in the process. Nerwen uses a Phoenix Essence to bring back Thalion, who subsequently fires a spell at Boreal, dealing 8 damage.

Having lost all their minions, the two riot leaders see it best to flee and join the other two at the southern front.

THE BATTLE IS VICTORIOUS!

Namyrra and Hybros gain third of a level, while Cinna, Erik, Nerwen and the two cannoneers gain a half. Dreyrugr and Thalion go up one full level. The enemies drop a Leather Cap, some Nostrum, Venom, Tonic, Grand Tonic and a Gaudy Cloak.

Hate to be nitpicking, but if our battle was tallied first, we would have gotten Experience, while now the other group got it?

OOc: is this okay?

IC: De'kra gazed from his perch as the last of the mob. So many people, dead for a bunch of corrupt powers. This was the way of Eubric.

Still...all the mob was slain save for its masters, at from his view. And these mob leaders were not so guiltless. Sure, it might mean helping the Bonepartes, but the need to aid his fellow heroes was greater.

Quickly De'kra shimmied down from his looking place, and turned to the other neutral heroes. " Only mob leaders left," review the echo, "mob members are all murder. I think it might be okay to join fellow heroes now, as more innocent combatants are slain. Anyone else want think we should join fight?"

Namyrra grabs Columbus and with Xut following runs to the Southern battle.

"Xut, go hit Eurose!"

"Columbus, please bombard Zephyroth with one of your lightning bombs from the back row."

"Stop running, coward!"

Erik runs after Riot leader Zephyroth to the Southern battle and attacks him from the back row.

"Can't stand and fight when you have no more peasants to hide behind, eh? You are a blight on the rest of the otherwise at least reasonably innocent hovels."

"No-one minds if I use this hat, just for this battle, do they?" (Unless someone else wants it): Erik grabs the leather cap and puts it on. "Afterwads it can be distributed properly, just seems a waste to leave it lying around, when it could keep me alive."
