Heroica RPG - Quest #64: Discord in Duplovia

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge sighs, takes a deep breath and says; " Auditors. We're here to note your inventory"

Edited May 18, 2013 by Skyrimguy

[The Legonater]

There is some shuffling heard behind the door.

"We didn't order an auditor today."

[-obelix-]

"That is the point of an audit - it is not ordered or requested. Look sir or madam, the sooner we're done, the sooner we can be on our way. So, may we come in?"

[The Legonater]

"...Uh... we have a leak in here. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Big leak. Very dangerous."

[Pyrovisionary]

"Oh? Keeps us hanging around here whilst his cronies nip out the back and get everything out Of the shed! And we'll have the thousand sword trick I bet. Fifty crates of swords and it turns out the bottom forty are full of rocks!"

[-obelix-]

"...Uh... we have a leak in here. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Big leak. Very dangerous."

"Who is this? What is your working number?"

[Pyrovisionary]

"Don't run off, I haven't found anything wrong... YET!"

[The Legonater]

"Operating num- Hey, you ready?"

"Just do it!"

"Alright, alright. Uh, you can come in now!"

[Wedge09]

"Now we end up in an ambush." says Alexander hearing the invite to enter and he prepares himself for a fight.

I love all of this quote from Star Wars :grin:

[-obelix-]

Thalion drinks a mead, gets an amethyst and scepter ready, and proceeds into the warehouse.

[The Legonater]

This reeks of an ambush.

Lighten up, Eyric, it was a boring conversation anyways!

The ability to 'lighten up' is nothing compared to the potential power of this ambush.

Oh, switch off.

The doors open, and the heroes enter the warehouse. It is pitch black inside, and they can't see anything. The doors slam shut behind them. They are in total darkness.

I have a bad feeling about this.

[-obelix-]

Thalion puts amethyst away and makes a small fireball in the palm of his hand, in an attempt to light up their immediate surroundings.

[Wedge09]

I have a bad feeling about this.

"I agree." says Alexander raising his bow.

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge downs a mead "Ish it jusht me or ish thish shtrong mead?" (Is it just me or is this strong mead?)

[The Legonater]

Thalion illuminates the warehouse...

Let's go!

QM Note: Sorry, I've just been pretty busy the past couple days.

Results of Round Two of the Warehouse Ambush:

>Alexander vs Ambusher B: Hit ((19)x2=38 damage)

Quellir vs Ambusher B: Shield (Doubled SP)

Sarge vs Cell Soldier A: Damage (10/2=5 damage)

Sarge vs Cell Soldier B: Damage (10/2=5 damage)

>Thalion vs Ambusher A: Overwhelm (Ambusher E joins)

Brickington vs Ambusher C: Shield

Eyric vs. Ambusher C: Hit (5 damage)

Cell Soldier B against Alexander (10-5=5 damage)

Ambusher D against Quellir (5-5=0 damage)

The battle goes poorly for the heroes, with Sarge nearly being knocked out and hits coming on Alexander and Eyric. There is still hope though, as Alexander puts an arrow through Ambusher B and Brickington stepping forward to shield the group.
