Heroica RPG - Quest #48: Death's Homecoming

[TheBoyWonder]

"Damn. Either way they need help."

[Fugazi]

"I think it's time for Punii to use those jellies. Bombs are more useful while there are two targets rather than one, and we need to get rid of that Blade before one of us is unlucky with Rhodus."

[Bricksandparts]

OoC: Sorry I haven't been able to post recently, I have a lot of work piling up and haven't had much time for EB.

"We are going to have to leave, we need more supplies and strategy."

[Dannylonglegs]

The bat landed on Elgar's shoulder and spoke in batese:

"Tell the Pillager to wait one more round. If at that time our position is worse than it is now, his request can be considered in earnest. As things stand, we could defeat the death Progg. Our escape is secured by the Werewolf, so we can devote all our energy to defeating the Death Progg. You need not use a potion either. Next round the Paladin can heal you. Also, tell the Turbaned Rogue, we agree."

"Order (If everyone agrees):

Sylph: Chill, FR

Punii: Mix Jellies

Alex: Rhodus A, FR

Johon: Give Elgar 'Scroll of Blindness', BR

Elgar: Recieve 'Scroll of Blindness', BR

Galen: Blade A, BR

Lycan: HeGone"

OoC: Sorry I haven't been able to post recently, I have a lot of work piling up and haven't had much time for EB.

That's alright. As Party Leader, I'll report your actions if you are unable to get online for 24 hours. This time of year is really busy for everyone, I think.

"Also," added the bat, "the Pillager will survive this round even if jab-attack is rolled because of SP. No reason to run exists yet apart from fear of unknown. and not even that because, with the Werewolf helping others, the group can survive even if we do not make it out of this battle."

Round Eleven of the Showdown on Memory Lane

>Punii mixes jellies: 6 is rolled: 40 damage to all, disregarding SP!

>Johon gives Elgar scroll of blindness

>Elgar receives scroll of blindness

>Galen VS Blade A (back): Shield: Mug (8x3=24+13=37/2=18-3=15 damage, 15 gold earned)

Punii detonates another devestating blast. Flakes off ice come off of the blade and even Rhodus has to shiled his eyes. Alex tries to bumrush the gargantuan creature, but it sideshuffles. Alex nearly rushes right through the stained glass window. ooking down, they realized they were 3 stories up... Johon and Elgar do a little literature trading. maybe they should join a book club later? Galen mugs the blade.

[Fugazi]

"So far so good. Keep mixing, Punii!"

Galen attacks the Ice Blade with his katana from the back row.

"But I still haven't figured out which one we should target this time."

[Jedi master Brick]

Elgar blinds the ice blade from the back row

[Fugazi]

"Oh, I figured it out at last. Rhodus B is our Progg."

OoC: "Hm. You've grown stronger, you little yellow DEFECT." has a bold period. That was mean!

[Endgame]

QM Note: Gotta throw a real stumper in sometimes.

Edited November 15, 2012 by Endgame

[Capt.JohnPaul]

Rhodus B, front row!

Bold period....

[Dannylonglegs]

The bat swept down when he realized the humans and humanoids had figured out which one was the real Rhodus. Being a bat, his eye sight, stereotypical, was not keen enough to identify the bolded period on Rhodus B...

"Order:

Bat: State Battle Order, NR

Punii: Mix Jellies, NR

Johon: Drink Grand Potion, BR (If this is a problem, Johon, Sylph will reimburse you when the battle's over.)

Elgar: Blind Blade B, BR

>Elgar blinds Ice Blade B (back row): Success!

>Alex VS Rhodus B (front): Shield: Guardian Angel!

>Galen VS Ice Blade B (front): Miss

The battle rages on. Another crippling shcokwave emits from Punii has he mixes two jellies. Elgar chants the glowing words inscribed on Johon's scroll, and the blade suddenly glazes over. Alex steps forward and gets into his Guardian Angel position. A heavenly glow in the silhouette of a wing human is behind him, baffling Rhodus. Galen misses.

The bat dropped down and swooped over Blade D.

[Fugazi]

"Now that's just perfect! Well done guys. Should we try to take out the Blade, or rather gang up on Rhodus while he can't strike back? The Blade should be blinded for two more rounds, correct?

And this time Rhodus D is the real deal."

OoC: D has SP: 4 where the space has been struck through.

The bat dropped down and swooped over Blade D.

"Oh hello bat, you were faster than me!"

[Dannylonglegs]

"Do we want to all focus on the Blade this round? If we don't kill it we'll have at-least made a huge dent in its health and be able to continue our assault on the blade next round with no fear of its retaliation? Or do we all want to focus on Rhodus? It would be nice to take advantage of the Guardian in that respect, but we might as well just deal with the blade, even though it will be blinded for two more rounds. Rhodus still has 8 SP."

"All on the ice blade I say"

Elgar attacks ice blade D from the back row

[Fugazi]

"Yeah, let's deal with the Blade first. When it's gone, Rhodus will be far less fearsome."

Galen attacks Ice Blade D with his katana from the front row.

[Dannylonglegs]

"Order:

Punii: Mix Jellies

Johon: Blade D, FR

Elgar: Blade D, BR

Galen: Blade D, FR

Alex: Blade D, FR

"I'm not sure that Punii should have enough jellies left to mix."

[Dannylonglegs]

"I'm not sure that Punii should have enough jellies left to mix."

"You're right. I wonder why he appears to have more than he really does."

"Order:

Punii: Make Jellies

Johon: Blade D, FR

Elgar: Blade D, BR

Galen: Blade D, FR

Alex: Blade D, FR

Lycan: HeGone

Sylph: Chill, BR"

[Fugazi]

"Perhaps he's become an illusion himself.

Wait, am I talking to a bat?"

[Dannylonglegs]

"Perhaps he's become an illusion himself.

Wait, am I talking to a bat?"

"Well, you're talking to a bat through the attuned evoker, who has been loyally translating for us..."

"If it makes you feel more comfortable, think of me as an extension of Friend's spirit. We are essentially one."

Round Thirteen of the Showdown on Memory Lane

>Punii makes jellies: No jellies made!

>Johon VS Ice Blade D (front): Critical Hit (8x3=24+19=43-3=40 damage, 10 damage decay placed!)

>Elgar VS Ice Blade D (back): Hit (11+18=29-3=26 damage)

>Alex VS Ice Blade D (front): Hit (8+15=23x2=46 damage)

>Galen VS Ice Blade D (front): Shield: Mug (8x3=24+13=37-3=34 damage, 34 gold earned)

>Rhodus: Free hit VS Johon (No damage!)

So much for unlucky thirteen! The party seems confident over their protection. They land a flurry of blows on the glazed over Ice Blade. Eventually, it cracks in half and melts. Rhodus, in his rage, attempts to kill Johon and finish the job he started 800 years ago. However, Alex's angel grabs his fist and pushes it away. Rhodus seems completely flabbergasted by this development.
