Heroica RPG - Quest#75: Falling Stars

[CMP]

QM Note: I did? Haha, I'm always contradicting myself when it comes to these mechanical details, aren't I?

Well, some of the mechanical details are so convoluted it's understandable. Especially in this Quest when we sometimes manipulate them to our advantage.

[Rumble Strike]

OOC: Sometimes?

Tarn is amazed when the 108 Stars bandit pops out of the Protectors backside appears. "Didn't we kill you already? Stay dead next time, you're not helping him, you're not helping us, and you're not helping yourself".

Tarn uses the Twin Sais against Protector of Justice from the front row, twice.

Lee (using no Element) attacks Protector of Justice from the front row, twice. If he is defeated, Lee will use Darkness on Nine Tattooed Dragon, from the front row.

OOC: Sometimes?

Okay, fine, we're loophole artists and we'll twist the rules whenever we can to gain the slightest edge. But the faster we win, the faster the QM doesn't have to deal with it, right?

"Aye, mate, at this point, you're just costin' us the time it'll take to cut ya' down."

[Flare]

Benji repeats again...

[Costy]

If the Protector is alive, Nagure repeats his attack with Tiger Slayer from the front row. If the Protector is defeated, Nagure attacks the Dragon with his Hammer.

[CMP]

Atramor glanced at the Protector's summon, figuring he stood to deal some major damage to it, and thus took a pair of swipes at the Nine-Tattooed Dragon, once from the front row, then again from the back.

[Peppermint_M]

"We dropped him in the pagoda, we'll drop him here." Tesni scowled and repeated her attack.

[-obelix-]

Thalion attacks Protector from front row. If Protector is down, he switches to Batarang and casts a darkness spell at Dragon from back row.

Nine-tattoeed Dragon - Poisoned (-1 health)

Lee - Blessed & Transcended (+3 health, +1 ether)

Atramor poisons the Nine-tattooed Dragon, while Tarn steals gold from the Protector all he can. It is unsurprisingly Tesni that deals the finishing blow to the leader of the Stars. To celebrate her victory, she chops of the aoi's head and holds it up while letting out a war cry.

The revived Star is left alone to fend against the indomitable heroes. He manages to stun Atramor, though.

Lee walks to Jun, who is huddling the lifeless body of Xiaolin.

"Jun, come. Let us bury her."

"Get lost, Lee! I don't need you meddling in my life anymore! Trying to be a father to me, even though you never could!"

"I'm not trying anything but to get you back home to your mother. Now get over yourself and give your first love the honor she deserves."

Jun looks like he's going to rebute, but then he looks into Xiaolin's blank eyes and nods. Together he and Lee start to carry the body to the elevator.

Meanwhile, the other heroes gather around the two automata who also lost the spark of life. No longer would Topazor boss the other automata around, nor would Emeray ask questions about what it's like to be made of flesh and bone.

Is there anything the heroes wish to do within the caves, or will they descend down to the entrance below?

[Rumble Strike]

"I will take the Great Sword for myself, what of the rest, friends? State your wants and desires while we rest up for a moment."

[CMP]

I should be out of Grand Potions, I used both during that fight.

Atramor replaces on the Pheles Rod on his back, and glanced over at the mouth of the cave, walking over rather exhausted. He looked down at the shells of the automata with almost some regret for the machines. He'd expected a bunch of unreliable minions, but, well, from what he'd seen, they weren't the clunky, soulless soldiers of the distant future rumored among Eubric. Maybe these things did have a place in the world. All the mages of the world wouldn't be able to stop an army of these things, he thought, with surprise. Times were changing, that much was obvious.

"Never thought I'd feel sorry for onna these things, but I s'pose they're not much different than people."

He strode over to the headless body of the Protector, surrounded by the corpses of his fellows, and grimaced a bit.

"Better, maybe."

McCafferey landed on Atramor's shoulder quite suddenly, almost forgotten in the heat of the battle. She clucked a few times, saying nothing, but didn't seem as utterly displeased with him as she usually did. The witch glanced at her briefly, brushing some meteor soot off the edges of his coat.

"I want this armor. If I'm gonna be takin' hits as hard as those in the future, this'll come in handy."

[Rumble Strike]

Tarn felt tired. Bone-weary. The constant fight was wearing him down. No longer was he the idealistic young man trained by Rystael, instead he had learned more about the world and the ways of men. He looked at the head f the Protector, and then at Jun, burying a former lover. They had killed all 108 Stars of Destiny, and now Jun was free again. But was he ever truly free to begin with? Were any of them?

He stared at his friends in a melancholy silence, savouring the relative peace and calm.

[Flare]

Benji sighs at the broken hearted Jun. 'I remember when I was like that' he thought to himself.

"I would very much like the Galactic Armor. It is the only part of the loot that would be useful to me. I would very much like it..."

Benji eyes Tesni strangely holding on to the head of the Protector of Justice. For a moment he was strangely grossed out. But then he remembered... 'Dang, she'll get the mystic blade! Darn woman, I didn't think I could detest her more than previously...' Benji thought to himself and spit on the ground.

[Rumble Strike]

"Benji, I think it makes sense for Atramor to take the armour. Combined with the Pheles Rod it offers him more survivablity. Perhaps you could wield the Great Sword instead? It is a mighty weapon for such a ferocious warrior.

I think the Zirconia should go to Thalion. Tesni killed the Protector and will get the Qu'lan Blade.

Nagure, what say you to the items? Is there anything that catches your eye?"

[Flare]

Nagure, what say you to the items? Is there anything that catches your eye?"

"The Great Sword is a lesser object, however as party leader I must subject to your wisdom. If you think I should receive the Great Sword instead, then let it be." Benji says dejectedly in a way that sounds like he obviously doesn't really mean it.

[CMP]

"Let Tarn take his sword, mate, he hasn't gotten much in the way of loot so far anyway. Tell ya' what, though. I'll lend ya' the rest of the gold ya' need to buy the Mythril from Sham, since it's true not much here's gonna be of use to ya'."

Edited August 31, 2013 by CallMePie

[Flare]

"You are right, the sword should go to Tarn and I should not accept it. However, I am not sure if I can really accept your offer of the gold, as I will need to repay another debt as well... I simply won't have enough gold..." *sigh* c"I don't know. Its a possibility. And it was kind for you to offer."

[Peppermint_M]

"I suppose it is fitting that I was to be the end of their earthly path for both." Tesni laid the head down near the Protector's body. "Should we bury them together?"

[-obelix-]

"I am relieved this is finaly over..."

Thalion turns over to other heroes, "Should we take the automatons with us, to master Legonardo? Perhaps he will be able to repair them!?"

He looks over the items, "As for these, I would like just the Zirconia gem, since it will make spellcasting much easier..."

[Costy]

"I would very much like the Bident. it will be good against a fair few enemies. Or the Greaves or the Helmet would be nice too, I feel like I'm ready for another artifact now."

[Rumble Strike]

OOC: I hate this bit, I don't want to do wrong by anybody.

Loot Distribution:

Thalion - Zirconia, Phoenix Essence

Atramor - Galactic Armor

Nagure - Xiaolin's Bident, Greaves

Tesni - Phoenix Dress

Benji - Phoenix Essence, Unicorn Helmet

Tarn - Great Sword

Lee - Nunchuks

All 6 player characters get an Elixir each

All 6 player characters get 156 gold, except Benji gets 312, Tarn 0

Tarn hands Thalion back Veritas/Equitas. "Thank you for the loan of these fine weapons. I am not sure we can carry the automata. Perhaps Nagure is big enough to take them with us."

He turns to Benji. "If it is gold you need, maybe I can help, my friend. I have already given you my share of the spoils, but if there is any more you need..."

Edited August 31, 2013 by Rumble Strike

[CMP]

You've made a mistake.

You gave the NPC stuff.

Atramor nodded towards Tarn as he accepted the gold and Elixir, then pulled the armor off of the Protector. It was in damn good condition despite the pounding the party had given its previous owner. He realized he was still wearing Thalion's Helmet, however, and tugged it off, tossing it to the elf.

"Thanks for lendin' me the thing, mate, but I'll be honest....I hope I've never gotta wear somethin' like that again. Unless you've got enough potions to replace a healer, it's a death sentence. And, well, if ya' do continue to use it..."

The witch paused, sliding his hand into his cloak, and pulling out a dagger whose blade he ran his finger along briefly before also tossing it over.

"....keep that handy. Ratsbane's been useful since it was just the Sapper."

Atramor removed his Counterstrike Gloves to buckle the Galactic Armor on, pulling his cloak on over it, and lastly sliding the Amulet of the Court around his neck once again.

"Damn, that's heavy. I think that's everythin'. I guess we can bury the blue chick on our way out. I'm ready to go."

[Rumble Strike]

OOC: well Lee is the only Chi Monk in the party!

Tarn slots another Grand Potion into Helbaerend's hollow blade and then equips the Great Blade, hefting the giant weapon in his hands to get a feel for the balance.

[Costy]

Nagure equips the White Dragon's Greaves, and picks up Topazor and Emeray.

He turns to Tensi, "I think Shanxian wants that head, and I doubt she'll give you the sword without it."

Nagure looks at the rest of the party, "I guess I'm ready to go."

[Peppermint_M]

"Yeah good point." She lifted the head again. "I think I could manage an automaton also. Leave none behind." She nodded. "My thaks for the loot. Though would anyone like this dagger I carry? It is of little use to me." Tesni was ready to go.
