Heroica RPG - Quest #86: Gaiden

[Endgame]

QM Note: Fixed!

The elf seems disgusted at the sight of Karie's weapon.

"Ewwwwwww! What is that icky blobby thing and why do you have it on your arm?!"

[Kintobor]

Karie takes a practice swing, the tentacle turned whip give a decent "crack!"

"If you really got to know, it's a tentacle from a demon I slayed out in the woods. When not in use, it curls back up my arm and acts like a tattoo. Although, that's sort of hard to see under all this garb. It took me a while to get used to it, but it's cool, and functional."

Here come's the oddball look from Baradock in three...two... one...

[Waterbrick Down]

"Right then, Karie, if ya wouldn't mind lossin' off one of those pumpkin bombs of yers. Octavyn you take one crate, barbarian, the other." Skrall shuffled through his pack before removing a Lightning Bomb and tossing it from the back row[/b] as he dived for cover from the ensuing explosions.

Battle Order:

Karie

Skrall

Octavyn

Baradock

[Kintobor]

"Sure thing, Skrall."

Karie tosses a Pumpkin Bomb from the back row.

"Mreoow... <Oh no, not more bombs...>"

Hershey slides down from Karie's back and scampers off somewhere.

[Cryos]

Baradock attacks High High elf's crate from the front row.

Edit: Forgot to choose row!

OOC: All the enemies should be down one health due to the poison, and the masked guy should have taken two damage from the lightning bomb.

No, seriously, I have no idea, I bought them off this witch in the Marketplace, and was intending to sell them off. Perhaps I should have bought more?"

Karie ponders the safety of her current bomb usage, or to be more accurate, the amount she was using. She wasn't becoming a pyromaniac, was she?

"What next, Skrall? If I stick to the back, I could take on the Masked Guy with Sexy. Oh, sorry, Sexy's my rapier. She pierces just about everything. Scales, metal, armour, you name it, she's pierced it.

Oh, dang it! Sorry, Octavyn, forgot about what happened back... yeah."

[Endgame]

QM Note: It only did 5 damage to him - the 5 damage was doubled due to Lightning being effective against Mechanicals.

"Hey, no worries! I stabbed you with that weapon a couple of times too, right?"

Octavyn looks to Skrall and Bradock.

"It's... A pretty long story, gents."

[Cryos]

Baradock nodded, not showing much enthusiasm in the story in the first place.

He was however glad to see the crate collapse under the weight of his club.

The elf fell flat on her phanny. Looking totally dazed, well. More dazed than usual.

This gave Baradock a clear opening for an attack. He winded up but kept his hand raised until the Ogre gave the say-so.

"What are ya waitin' fer, barbarian? Smack that elf from here to next Tuesday." Skrall loaded a bolt into his crossbow and took aim at the archer from the back row. The ogre turned to Octavyn, "I'm sure. Kaire, feel free to start whittilin' away at that armored sod. Octavyn, join the barbarian's assault on the elf from the front."

"Just realized I should be attacking from the front. Stupid me.

I should note I rarely ever get this close, too. It's like everyone's gotten insanely good weapons as of late or something or another."

Karie attacks the Masked Guy with Sexy from the Front Row.

[Cryos]

Baradock found himself a bit stunned. The golden syndicate member was swift enough to attack the Elf before he could even get the chance!

He gave an annoyed grunt and winded up for another attack. Sure to land his mark.

Baradock attacks High High Elf from the front row!

[Waterbrick Down]

OoC: Just noted, Skrall should be encouraged, which means the Archer should be KO'd.

Skrall loaded another bolt before levelling his crossbow at the man in the mask from the back row. "Keep at 'em, make sure yer hittin' to knock 'em out. No need in killin' the soddin' puddin' heads."

Skrall quickly marks the humanoid pattern of the masked man, definitely unlike the rocky movements of the monsters of the fields, before burying another bolt into the Masked Man from the back row. "Octavyn and barbarian, bring that elf down before she wakes up."

The elf's right eye was starting to close due to swelling, but her drugged crooked smile remained

Baradock frowned, annoyed. He would make sure to wipe that smirk clean off her face!

He winded up for a back hand swing positioning his club under his alternate arm.

Loosing his hand, he Attacked the High High Elf from the front row.

[Kintobor]

Karie, still shocked at the immense amount of power the Pumpkin Bomb possessed, attacks the Masked Guy from the front row with Sexy.

"Note to self: buy more of these things."

QM Note: You're correct, WBD: Since the enemies are completely dehabilitated, I've forgotten to take off the indicator.

The party continues to whale on the last two junkies, still dazed and confused from the pumpkin bomb's horrifying blast. Skrall ends the Masked Guy with a tremendous arrow, piercing straight through his armor. the druggies crumples like a napkin, falling to the ground. Karie and Octavyn team up on the high elf, weakening her. However, Baradock's wish is fulfilled. With a firm hack of his club, he finally knocks the junkie out cold.

"Good job, folks. They seem to still be alive, too, so hats off for that."

Octavyn runs through the knocked out bodies of the junkies, picking out what they had offered them just a few minutes earlier: Their drug stash. He pats them down throroughly and ensures he finds all of it, holding almost a dozen bags of the hallucinogens in his hands. One by one he punctures the bags of drugs and scatters them to the wind, blowing them away from all of the heroes and enemies alike.

The three junkies come to their senses as they see Octavyn disposing of their precious product. Too weak to stand up, but well enough to whine.

"NO! Come ooon, maaaaan, why'd you have to go and do that?!"

"I'm not going to allow you to run amuck with that stuff."

Octavyn turns to Karie.

"Now, do you want me to dispose of your little stash of dust as well?"

The High High Elf claws over to Baradock and Skrall.

"Please, please help us! That bad golden man is taking all of our precious stuff! We had such a perfect plan... why'd you have to go and trounce us?!"
