Zepher Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 OoC: I totally forgot she could wake up! We're okay! And as I said in the discussion thread, Remus should be bleeding. Boomingham watches as the elf is thrown across the stage. He cringed slightly at the crunch. He had not known the man, but had seen him earlier in the night with Nyx. He glanced over at the young girl quietly sleeping and nodded thankfully. He takes a step back towards the denizens of Eubric. "My lady, I too have seen many things," Boomingham says to Baba. "I have seen many things that I have disagreed with. I have watched and heard many horrors. I am a surviving of the Orcish Invasion. I fought, and I won many battles. My flesh and blood betrayed me or died. I am very lonely and very alone." "Months ago, a man named Bluehood tried to give everyone in the city power. I stopped him and his foolish schemes. We earn power. You are attempting to strip these people of power. That will not be allowed either. We are all lonely and alone, but we still defend each other. That is power. Earning the respect of others up to the point that they are willing to die for you." Boomingham turns next to Steerpike. "You always have a choice. That is the only power we mortals have. I'm offering you a choice now. Certain death on my blade, or potential death on hers. Tell me your choice." Barty, zips near Baba and whispers (so that Boomingham can't hear him). "You will die today, witch." Boomingham raises his sword and shield. "Thothwick, rip that damn wax out of your ears! Throw a bone at Steerpike!" Boomingham turns to Nyx and attempts to heal her, prepared to defend himself against the wolves bearing down on him. Battle Order Boomingham Thothwick Nyx
Professor Flitwick Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Nodding to the King, Thothwick throws his Bone at Steerpike.
Sandy Posted May 13, 2013 Author Posted May 13, 2013 Results of Round Three of the Wolfgang Battle: Nagure vs. Ajax - Extra Critical Furious Hit (Ajax: 322 health-(58x2=116 dmg)=206 health) >Arthur uses Scroll Blindness on Elijah - Success (Elijah: blinded; Arthur: -1 ether) >Arthur (Unlucky Horseshoe) vs. Elijah - Special Damage/Shield (Magnetic Mojo - All enemies: stunned; Arthur: 16+16+15+15+15=77 gold) >Arthur uses Scroll of Frailty vs. Ajax - Failure (Arthur: -1 ether) >Arthur (Unlucky Horseshoe) vs. Elijah - Hit/Critical Hit (Elijah: 382 health-34 dmg=348 health+jinxed) >Sorrow vs. Elijah - Damage/Special Damage/Critical Lethal Hit/Damage (Elijah: 348 health-(66x4=264 dmg)=84 health) >Sorrow vs. Arrowic - Lethal Aim/Damage (Arrowic: 249 health-(22x4=88 dmg)=161 health) Bowen - Free Hit vs. Nagure (Bowen: recovers from stun) Crossette - Free Hit vs. Arthur (Crossette: recovers from stun) The battle at the backdoor continues ferociously. Nagure's blow sends Ajax flying to the wall, but the goon quickly recovers. Arthur blind Elijah, and then casts a magnetic field that draws gold to him and stuns all the enemies. Arthur then tries to make Ajax fragile, but fails at that. He follows by throwing the Unlucky Horseshoe at Elijah, injuring the boy and making him permanently jinxed. Sorrow then attacks Elijah, damaging him further. Sorrow also shoots Arrowic for some damage. Bowen and Crossette both take a turn to get back on their feet as well.

Sandy Posted May 13, 2013 Author Posted May 13, 2013 Boomingham watches as the elf is thrown across the stage. He cringed slightly at the crunch.

Barbariccia guffaws. "How touching! But unless you have studied every line of magic for thousands of years and absorbed the powers of countless witches and mages like I have, you have no chance of defeating me. I have reached the pinnacle of power, now I just have to start putting it to use again." The woman looks past Boomingham to Thothwick. "I remember you, apeman. I should thank you; if you hadn't brough my Bluto to me a year ago, I would probably still be wasting away in that dusty old cabin at the bog. The boy told me all his hopes and dreams, and ignited the passion to affect the world within me for the first time in centuries. With power comes great responsibility, but I had lost interest in carrying it for the longest time. When you're almighty, it gets boring after a while. But now I'm back here in the city I once loved, even though it has changed much over the thousand years since my last stay. I promise to lift Eubric Freeport to a height and glory it has never experienced before! I just need to sow the seeds of change first." Boomingham turns next to Steerpike. "You always have a choice. That is the only power we mortals have. I'm offering you a choice now. Certain death on my blade, or potential death on hers. Tell me your choice." "I told you already, I have made my choice a long time ago when I joined Wolfgang. I owe Ulric my life, so I will follow his orders even to my grave." Round Two of the Steerpike Battle: >Boomingham heals Nyx - No Healing/Heal More (Nyx: +46 health) >Thothwick throws a bone to Steerpike - (Steerpike: distracted) >Nyx attempts to wake up - Success (Nyx: asleep removed) Lupus - Free Hit vs. Boomingham (Boomingham: 88 health+12 SP-(24/2=12 dmg)=88 health; Lupus: 583 health-(22x2/2=22 dmg)=561 health) Remus - Free Hit vs. Thothwick (Thothwick: 38 health+10 SP-(24/2=12 dmg)=36 health) Steerpike - Free Hit vs. Nyx (Steerpike: recovers from getting distracted) Nyx - Badly poisoned (-10 dmg) Remus - Bleeding (-5 dmg) Boomingham kneels next to Nyx and restores her to full health. Thothwick throws his only bone at Steerpike, distracting him for a moment. Nyx wakes up from her slumber. Then the werewolves attack, but they are able to cause only minimal damage. The lethal poison continues to work on Nyx, while Remus bleeds slowly but surely.

Zepher Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 (edited) OoC: In the past, counterstrike HAS considered row, and has NOT considered encouraged. If you want to do it differently, that's okay by me! I believe Lucky also should effect my healing roll. I know encouraged doesn't, but generally lucky does. I will wait for your reply/reroll before making plans for the following round. Boomingham scoffs at the woman. "We will see when the time comes." He does not even bother to answer Steerpike. Boomingham offers his hand to Nyx and helps her off the floor. "Good morning, sunshine," he says. Edited May 13, 2013 by Zepher

I believe Lucky also should effect my healing roll. I know encouraged doesn't, but generally lucky does. I will wait for your reply/reroll before making plans for the following round. QM Note: Damn, I'm losing my focus here. Of course row affects your counterstrike, but so does encouraged. Counterstrike can be imagined to be a hit with a bare fist, without the effects of the equipped weapon but inluding other effects. And yes, I forgot your lucky roll.
Pandora Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 Nyx somehow makes her way back to consciousness, pulling the wax out of her ears as Boomingham helps her up. She holds onto him, and smiles where she thinks he must be from the sound of his voice. "Thank you Larry dearest.." is all she can manage before turning away, dry-retching with the poison in her system, but fortunately with an empty stomach. "Please, point me in the right direction, the world has gone a little dark it seems, but my magics can still find their mark, I think." OoC: Also going to wait on the healing outcome before making plans. EDIT: Now I'll wait to see what Zepher plans...
Endgame Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 (edited) Counterstrike can be imagined to be a hit with a bare fist, Then what is the point of the gloves? "Lets see how quickly we can wrap this one up..." I follow Arthur's plan. Edited May 13, 2013 by Endgame
Professor Flitwick Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 The woman looks past Boomingham to Thothwick. "I remember you, apeman. I should thank you; if you hadn't brough my Bluto to me a year ago, I would probably still be wasting away in that dusty old cabin at the bog. The boy told me all his hopes and dreams, and ignited the passion to affect the world within me for the first time in centuries.

But now I'm back here in the city I once loved, even though it has changed much over the thousand years since my last stay. I promise to lift Eubric Freeport to a height and glory it has never experienced before! I just need to sow the seeds of change first." Thothwick's voice remained as resolute and sombre as ever, despite the fear flowing through his mind. "And I remember you, Witch. I remember you all too well. I, in turn, thank you. You ignited my awareness of your unique breed of filth. Without you I wouldn't of been shown just who is responsible for the terror and torment in this world. The murder of Constance, and Gnash, and Triad, and countless others. Without you, I wouldn't of been able to lead Olegia to a new era of safety and peace." Thothwick turns to Nyx. "I hope, before the night is up, you shall understand my hatred for him." "I told you already, I have made my choice a long time ago when I joined Wolfgang. I owe Ulric my life, so I will follow his orders even to my grave." Thothwick lowers his voice even further, in an attempt to intimidate Steerpike. "And what, pray tell, makes you think you'll fair any better in her world than in mine? Join us, and I shall do my best to ensure you freedom. It's not to late, no damage has been done tonight. Yet."
Pandora Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 Thothwick turns to Nyx. "I hope, before the night is up, you shall understand my hatred for him." Nyx looks around to where she hears Thothwick's voice, arms stretched out slightly, searching. A puzzled and worried expression is on her face, as she tries to work out with her remaining senses what's going on. "Who? Atramor?? Is this why you hate him so much? But... Atramor is a completely different person, Thothy. Atramor didn't do these things, she did, whoever the hell she is." Nyx turns to where she thought she heard the female voice. "Just who the hell are you anyway? And what the hell do you want? What the blazes is going on! Tell me!" The frustration from not being able to see grows, and Nyx once more feels her temper rise as a result.
Zepher Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 "Nyx, you'll be needing these gloves, and quick. Thothwick, if you'd hold off one of the little wolves, I think I can deal with Steerpike for a round." Boomingham offers the sterile gloves to Nyx, though the two of them remain in the back row. Battle Order >Thothwick v. Lupus >Boomingham gives gloves to Nyx >Nyx accepts gloves Free Hits >Remus v. Thothwick (-2) >Steerpike v. Boomingham (-9) (-22 counterstrike)
Professor Flitwick Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Thothwick attacks Lupus from the front row, with his Banana Sabre. "Who? Atramor?? Is this why you hate him so much? But... Atramor is a completely different person, Thothy. Atramor didn't do these things, she did, whoever the hell she is." "I see no distinction between the deeds done and people killed by Baba and Wren, and those by Atramor. Triad. Gnash. Hans. Constance."
Pandora Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Nyx fumbles slightly, feeling for Boomingham's hands. She finds them, taking the gloves, and giving his hands a little squeeze before pulling away and putting them on over her thin black goves. She turns back towards Thothwick's voice, a look of concern unconsciously on her face. "Thothy, I.. I know how all of those things affected you. I was there too, I remember all too well. But Atramor went to try to save Triad, she would have died alone if it weren't for him. He tried, he really tried. And Gnash, he was a good man.. orc.. being.. whatever, but he was killed by that crazy Wren. Hans... yeah, that was... unfortunate, but again Atramor was trying to help, and Constance..." Nyx sighs, the memories of each are so much more vivid without her sight. "Constance was.. unfortunate, but it was Tarn who threw the bomb, and in that situation..." She trails off. Atramor had become like a brother to her, but Thothy was also someone she cared about deeply. She could see where he was coming from, and now was not the time to argue.

Sandy Posted May 15, 2013 Author Posted May 15, 2013 QM Note: Sorry, Pandy, it takes you one more turn to equip the gloves. "And I remember you, Witch. I remember you all too well. I, in turn, thank you. You ignited my awareness of your unique breed of filth. Without you I wouldn't of been shown just who is responsible for the terror and torment in this world. The murder of Constance, and Gnash, and Triad, and countless others. Without you, I wouldn't of been able to lead Olegia to a new era of safety and peace." "Oh, so you're the leading actor in this grand play? Don't make me laugh, apeman!" Thothwick lowers his voice even further, in an attempt to intimidate Steerpike."And what, pray tell, makes you think you'll fair any better in her world than in mine? Join us, and I shall do my best to ensure you freedom. It's not to late, no damage has been done tonight. Yet." Steerpike steps back under Thothwick's scorching glare, but does not bend. "Join Heroica? And betray yet another master? No thank you, I'll take my chances with Ulric and hope that witch will get bored with the dealings of this city quickly and move on." "Just who the hell are you anyway? And what the hell do you want? What the blazes is going on! Tell me!" "I've had countless names during my time of existence. Once I was the right hand of King Haeresias of ancient Mercution, known then as Sorceress Ambergaze of Babeleth. Your friend the apeman knows me as Baba, the Witch of Kalakita Bog, but that old hag is gone now, replaced by Barbariccia Dellamore, the Stealer of Hearts.

Zepher Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 OoC: I believe in fairness I should be poisoned, as I'd count a free hit as a "hit". Boomingham shoulders the hit and continues the fight. He flings out from under Steerpike's attack and throws himself and his blade at Remus, again from the back. "Nyx, those gloves will look dashing on you. Thothwick, mind using one of your health cores on her? I'll continue to tango with Steerpike." Battle Order Thothwick Boomingham Nyx
Endgame Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 More thugs die, the bodies piling up. "We have this just about wrapped up." Arrowic, back, twice.

Professor Flitwick Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Steerpike steps back under Thothwick's scorching glare, but does not bend. "Join Heroica? And betray yet another master? No thank you, I'll take my chances with Ulric and hope that witch will get bored with the dealings of this city quickly and move on." Thothwick mimics Steerpike and steps back, not taking his eyes off him. "No one mentioned Heroica, Steerpike. And besides, you know we'll only be here until either interest or money runs out..." Thothwick ones more lowers his voice to a more intimitating tone, whilst turning to heal Nyx with his health core. "... Baba could very well be here for years. Do you know how long Moon Elves can live?"
Pandora Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 "I've had countless names during my time of existence. Once I was the right hand of King Haeresis of ancient Mercution, known then as Sorceress Ambergaze of Babeleth. Your friend the apeman knows me as Baba, the Witch of Kalakita Bog, but that old hag is gone now, replaced by Barbariccia Dellamore, the Stealer of Hearts. I am here to sow the seeds of a new tomorrow. I do hope you regain your sight soon, little girl, so you can witness it yourself." Nyx turns to Baba's voice, in a Stephen the Wondrous Minstrel type of way. "So Babs, basically, you're an old hag that's been hanging around for ages like a bad smell. You ain't stealing my heart, Grandma, and I don't know what you want, and I don't much care. I'm getting into a habit of stopping crazy old women like you; the world isn't yours to take. Tomorrow is always new, that's half the fun and I want to get my sight back just to watch you burn." "Nyx, those gloves will look dashing on you." Nyx turns back to the voice that soothes her. "If you say so Larry. Are they black? Tell me they're black. " Nyx stands well back and dry-retches a little more with the poison in her system, but pulls on the Sterile Gloves, hoping to quell her nausea.
Sandy Posted May 16, 2013 Author Posted May 16, 2013 QM Note: Battle results will be tallied after I get back from work. "No one mentioned Heroica, Steerpike. And besides, you know we'll only be here until either interest or money runs out..." "... Baba could very well be here for years. Do you know how long Moon Elves can live?" "I know you are Heroican, Metasimian. The Wolfgang has eyes and ears everywhere, including closer to Captain Patricia than she could even suspect. If you're in it for the gold, why don't you join us? Our treasury rivals even that of Great Guffington, nowadays." Steerpike then glances at Barbariccia. "Hmmm, I don't think the witch is a Moon Elf, despite her pale demeanor. Hearts aren't the only thing she steals, I've heard..." "So Babs, basically, you're an old hag that's been hanging around for ages like a bad smell. You ain't stealing my heart, Grandma, and I don't know what you want, and I don't much care. I'm getting into a habit of stopping crazy old women like you; the world isn't yours to take. Tomorrow is always new, that's half the fun and I want to get my sight back just to watch you burn." "Save your temper tantrums to someone who actually gives a damn, little girl."
