Sandy Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 "I believe we've got ourselves a lead, gentlemen." Ellaria says with a nod. "Shall we head to the warehouse, then, or do you wish to continue picking this place apart, Master Harkenshire?"
Zepher Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 "Looks like we're off to Warehouse 3. We'll tell you if we find anything of interest."
Waterbrick Down Posted January 5, 2013 Author Posted January 5, 2013 The Party heads back to the streets. On their way out of the Harbor Master's office they are confronted by a group of Bonaparte cadets. "State your name and business" "Yeh, name and business"
Sandy Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 Ellaria looks sideways at Lawrence and William. The audacity of these cadets is astonishing. If they reveal their true identities, would they dare to pester them anymore?
Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 "I think it be better to announce who we truly are as you and I both have good reputation we the Bonapartes, Madame Arbour." William whispers
Zepher Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 "We're heroes of Heroica investigating a murder and trying to return some cloths to their rightful owner. Surely that doesn't upset anyone in the Bonaparte family. If we were to make use of any of your services, we would pay up. I'm Lord Lawrence Boomingham, by the by."
Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 "And I'm William Harkenshire, who's in command here?"
Waterbrick Down Posted January 6, 2013 Author Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) "So, returning some clothes to their rightful owners eh? Seems like you folks from Heroica shouldn't be stealing them in the first place. You won't find us such pushovers this time though. En garde!" PREPARE FOR BATTLE!

Zepher Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 OoC: Why only encouraged for the first round? Sobering up rather quickly. "This time? I can hardly remember fighting you last time. Ah, what the Hel. Same rules as with the Rocklings, chaps, leave them alive. If you want to give that fancy new scroll a try, now would be the time, Ellaria. My counterstriking could do wonders with it." Boomingham draws Scupperer and slashes at Colby from the front row. "You two take the strangely clothed cadets." Battle Order Boomingham Harkenshire Ellaria
Waterbrick Down Posted January 6, 2013 Author Posted January 6, 2013 OoC: Why only encouraged for the first round? Sobering up rather quickly. I went back and checked your post, you drank a mead and gave a different one to the Harbor Master. Fixed.
Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 William drops his Croise Crossbow and pulls out his Wave Sword and slashes at Bonaparte Cadet Drill Sergeant Drake from the front row. (I can do that right?)
Sandy Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Ellaria is baffled. "Why do you attack us? We are friends of the Bonapartes! Once the Admiral hears of this, you will be sorry for crossing with us." Ellaria takes out her Scroll of Inspiration and attempts to use it on Lawrence from the back row.
Waterbrick Down Posted January 6, 2013 Author Posted January 6, 2013 "Well maybe if your organization wasn't stealing people naked you'd have a point, but no matter, we'll see to it that we at least leave you with some dignity." Round 1 of the Harbor side battle: Boomingham vs. Colby - Hit (Colby: 50 health-(38x2x2=154 damage)=0 health) William vs. Sargent Drake - Critical Hit (Drake: 50 health-(11x2=22+16=38 damage)=12 health + Cursed effect) >Ellaria uses Scroll of Inspiration on Boomingham - Failure (-10 ether) Morgan vs. Boomingham - Free Hit (Boomingham: 42+12 health-(25 damage)= 29 health) Henry vs. William - Free Hit (William: 31+8 health-(25 damage)= 14 health) George vs. Ellaria - Free Hit (Ellaria: 31 health-(20/2 damage)= 21; Boomingham: 29+12 health-(20 damage)= 21 health; William: 14+8 health-(20 damage)=2 health) Boomingham vs. Morgan - Counter Strike (Morgan: 50 health-(20 damage)=30 health) The Party charges the cadets, Boomingham and William both landing solid hits, as one of the cadets fall stricken to the ground. Ellaria attempts to inspire Boomingham but fails to get through the entire reading before George lets loose a shot that tears through the ranks of the Party leaving them weakened. Boomingham and William trade blows with the two angered cadets in street clothes and Boomingham neatly counter attacks Morgan forcing her to end her assault for the time being. The cadets are down a man and are somewhat hampered but the Party has still has an uphill battle to be fought. The Battle Continues!

Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 "Well maybe if you weren't so full of yourself and your puny libido you'd be able to see that we have no business in stealing people's clothes." William says as he fires at Drake from the back row with the Croise Crossbow. OOC: How am I on 2 HP all of a sudden, shouldn't that be 14?
Zepher Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 OoC: The clothed cadets deal damage to everyone. "Well, we've been worse for wear. Harkenshire, stay strong chap, if you go down we'll pick you back up, never fear. I think you've got the right idea hanging back. Ellaria, clearly he needs your attention this round more than I." Boomingham moves back and slashes at Cadet Henry with his Frozen Saber.
Sandy Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Ellaria cries out in frustration to the ignorance of the cadets, and turns to Harkenshire in an attempt to heal him from the back row. "Let us teach these rookies a lesson they will never forget!"
Waterbrick Down Posted January 7, 2013 Author Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) QM Note: I just realized I haven't been calculating free hits correctly, i.e. adding up all the damage taken by one player and then subtracting SP. This next round will be run correctly, so keep that in mind. Also is counter striking affected by row? "Young Cadets always trying to pick fights, seems like you chaps were in the wrong though. Honestly, stealin' a persons uniform fer no reason at all, I'm surprised yer organization hasn't cracked down on your unhero-like behavior." Round 2 of the Harbor side battle: Boomingham vs. Henry - Critical Hit (Henry: 50 health-(9x2=18+20+4+4=46x2/2=46 damage)=4 health Stunned) >Ellaria vs. William - Nurture More (William: 2 health+(2x6=12+18+3=33 health)=31 health -1 ether) >William vs. Sargent Drake - Aim (Drake: 12 health-(11 damage)=1 health) Morgan vs. Boomingham - Free Hit (Boomingham: 21+12 health-(25/2=13 damage)= 20 health) George vs. Ellaria - Free Hit (Ellaria: 21 health-(20/2 damage)= 11; Boomingham: 20+12 health-(20/2=10 damage)= 20 health; William: 31+8 health-(20/2=10 damage)= 29 health) Boomingham vs. Morgan - Counter Strike (Morgan: 30 health-(20/2=10 damage)=20 health) Boomingham almost downs another cadet before countering a strike from Morgan, with a quick flick of his frozen saber. Ellaria successfully nurtures William back to full health as the Warden brings the Sargent close to collapse. Cadet George bombards the Party keeping them pinned down. The Battle Continues!

Zepher Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 OoC: Counterstrike is affected by row, unfortunately. Boomingham growls fiercely and nods to his companions. "Looks like this battle is almost won. Harkenshire, could you kindly use your Repeating Crossbow to incapacitate the two heavily wounded chaps. Ellaria, if you'd be so kind as to take on the remaining properly clothed Cadet, I think I'll give healing myself a shot." Boomingham saunters up to the front. "I hope this is good training for you, Cadets, though you need to get your head straight about all this clothing this and that. Why aren't two of you in uniform, by the by? Are you choosing to do this with your day off?"
Waterbrick Down Posted January 7, 2013 Author Posted January 7, 2013 "As if you didn't know. Some of your buddies back at the hall, thought it be quite the laugh to make off with mine and Henry's uniforms."
Sandy Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 "Heroes of Heroica would never do that without a perfectly good reason", Ellaria retorted. She was certain the snotty behaviour of these cadets was the source of all these misunderstandings. She then aimed Sylvania's Crossbow at Cadet George from the back row.
Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 William pulls out his repeating crossbow and shoots Harry and Drake from the back row.
Waterbrick Down Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 QM Note: Battle Order please and then I'll run the round.
