Heroica RPG - Quest#100: To The Tower of Babel

[Jebediahs]

Nur rides his floating rock to safety before it crumbles away from his wooden shield as the spirit returns to its plane of existence.

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge grabs gold of Brock and pulls at his arm away from Throlar before "accidentally" pushing at the dwarf with his Serpenthead shield

"Shut it yer oversized pixie before I shove yer back in there with them angry lowlifes."

Eric's eyes widened as the Mutant's deity was summoned to the battlefield. "That is one ugly motherf-", he gritted his teeth and slowly retraced his steps, before reluctantly fleeing the battle. While running away, Eric eyed the Mutant's tail he had chopped off once more. "Too bad, would've made one hell of an awesome trophy"

"Hooray," he silently muttered, "at least we have our treacherous no-good dwarf companion back...". He eyed the creature maliciously.

[Pyrovisionary]

We should have left it at that, Dwarf captured, and we could have gone to Vega midget free.

"Shut it yer oversized pixie before I shove yer back in there with them angry lowlifes."

"I'll die of a disease before yer could kill me."

[Khorne]

The Nord was sick of the dwarf's childish demeanour. His usual grin slightly faded and the mischievous, childish lights in his cold eyes grew dimmer. Matter-of-factly, he simply stated: "You owe me a Mead and a vial of Smelling Salts, dwarf". He remained silent, chosing not to reply to Throlar's insults or outbursts for the moment. Instead, he stared down on the dwarf intently, enforcing his point that he really did feel that the dwarf owed him Mead and Smelling Salts.

Results of Round Four of the Battle at the Ruins:

Sarge uses a Smoke Bomb

One look at the demon makes the heroes decide it's better to just leave while they still have all their appendices left, so Sarge throws a smoke bomb, and the party escapes the ruins under it's cover.

"*cough* Run, cowards! *cough* *cough* Run before God catches you, har har har!!! *cough*"

THE BATTLE IS DISCONTINUED!

The party runs with the two teenagers and the horde of undead in tow until they are well out of sight of the mutant stronghold.

"Brock, I'm so relieved you're still alive!"

"I'm happy for that too. If you hadn't come, they would've fed us to that... thing! Umm, you know what, Cally?"

"It's alright, Brock. We'll go to Vega some other time."

"Thanks. You're the best."

"Once we get you back to your brother, I don't think you'll be seeing daylight for quite some time, Brock." Walbartan glances at Althior. "That is what we are doing next, right?"

The green giant looks to the direction where they came from.

"It was probably best for us to run from that hellspawn. Mutants I can take, but I had no idea there was something like that lurking behind them... No wonder they were such a malicious bunch. But I best formulate a new plan, Maddog will have a taste my blade one day. Eh, do you mind if I travel with you until I figure out what to do next? I promise to follow your orders, you look like a competent bunch."

Orokai avoids looking at Throlar.

[Pyrovisionary]

"Good ter have yer Orokai. And yeah, I think we'll be goin' t Dim Haven now then onto Vega, right?"

Sarge scratches his diseased arm nervously. That.... Thing had almost made them into mutants. It was disgusting to think about it.

"Oh and we are pretending t be Wolfgang once we get t Vega aint we?"

Edited June 14, 2014 by Pyrovisionary

[Khorne]

Eric hung at the back of the party, casually leaning against the remains of a tree, arms crossed over his chest. After hearing Orokai speak, the Nord stated his opinion.

"Nothing we can't handle ourselves, but I have no qualms with you tagging along. Who knows, perhaps we can even be of assistance in avenging your late wife. Vengeance is our duty to honor those who we have lost. You have my blade, ork"

Eric nodded and smiled slightly as he pledged his blade to the greenskin's cause. The Norse traditions and lifestyle shares many aspects with the barbaric ways of the orcs of Baltarok, so Eric sympathised with Orokai's plight.

"Besides," he added, "we're having some trouble maintaining loyalty amongst the ranks, so any addition to strengthen our party is kind of welcome". He smirked and glanced at Throlar.

[K-Nut]

Althior looks towards his party. "Indeed, let us return to Dim Haven with the boy," He turns to Orokai. "And you are indeed welcome to join us if you wish, sir."

Althior then turns towards the dwarf, promptly grabbing him by the shirt and violently shoving him against a nearby tree. "Now, if you try anything like that again you little twerp I will drop you so fast you won't know what hit you. This is not a democracy; you don't get to do whatever the hell you please under my watch. I was placed as your leader because I get results. So quit acting like you know anything. You're here because, for some reason, you think you're a hero. I don't enjoy being stuck with you any more than you do, but try another stunt like that again and I will have no hesitation to leave your corpse with the Wolfgang scum that's after us," He lets go of the dwarf. He says, still glaring at him. "Am I understood? Shape up and start acting like you're a hero,"

He turns back to the rest of his party. "Shall we? Lead the way, Sarge. We can talk about our Wolfgang problem later,"

[Sandy]

"Good ter have yer Orokai. And yeah, I think we'll be goin' t Dim Haven now then onto Vega, right?"

"Oh and we are pretending t be Wolfgang once we get t Vega aint we?"

"Thank you for the welcome. It's the first one I've had since arriving to this decrepit land. But can I ask, what is Wolfgang?"

"Apparently some major criminal organization in their hometown of Eubric. Go figure."

"Nothing we can't handle ourselves, but I have no qualms with you tagging along. Who knows, perhaps we can even be of assistance in avenging your late wife. Vengeance is our duty to honor those who we have lost. You have my blade, ork"

"I thank you for the offer, norseman. On technical terms, I am not an orc. I have some orc in my blood from my father's side, since he was a hobgoblin. My mother was ogre with some gremlin in her bloodline. And thus, here am I, the 'Son of the Greenskins'."

Althior looks towards his party. "Indeed, let us return to Dim Haven with the boy," He turns to Orokai. "And you are indeed welcome to join us if you wish, sir."

Orokai thanked Althior as well, and followed the rest of the party as they made their way back to the tunnel that led down into the grotto. There the adventurous teenagers got a less than warm welcome.

"You imbecils! You fishheads! You absolute halfwits! You could have gotten yourselves killed out there! What went through your mind, Brock, taking my keys and running off like that?!"

"I'm sorry, Belthazar! I just wanted to become a Decamon Champion, like you..."

"For gods' sakes, Brock, you didn't need to run off to Vega for that! I could've taught you!" The Dockmaster takes a deep breath. "I still can, but not until after you've rested. Looks like you had quite an adventure out there."

"You can bet! There was a thunderstorm, then mutants attacked, then these guys showed up, then there was this ruin with more mutants and demons and..."

"It can wait, Cally. You need to rest as well."

"Just one more thing..." Cally walks to Throlar, and gives him a Decamon Card. "Take this, as thanks for saving my Brock. It's a rare ethereal-type card, no other type can trump it. Don't listen to what the others say, you're a true hero!"

Dockmaster Belthazar sends the two exhausted teenagers away to their beds.

"Now, if there's anything I can do for you, just say it. I am the Fiery Champion of Decamon, after all."

"Now, if there's anything I can do for you, just say it. I am the Fiery Champion of Decamon, after all."

"In fact, there is something you could do for us. We still have some business to attend to, but, if it would be possible when we return, to arrange a voyage back to Eubric? It would be greatly appreciated, my dear sir,"

[Jebediahs]

"Might I be on the receiving end of a heal, please? I can barely stand."

[Pyrovisionary]

Sarge downs a grand potion, before eyeing the dwarf angrily.

Ooc: Last post of today probably, I'll be away till tomorrow evening.

"In fact, there is something you could do for us. We still have some business to attend to, but, if it would be possible when we return, to arrange a voyage back to Eubric? It would be greatly appreciated, my dear sir,"

"I could arrange you a trip back to Eubric, sure, but it would have to be in the company of some... hmm, shady folk. If that is a problem, you might want to try your luck at Port Taboo or the Wailing Wharf. Now, is any of you gentlemen up for a Decamon match with the local champion? If you manage to win me and snatch my Level 9 card, the title of the Fiery Champion will transfer on to you. Of course, we have to agree on a bet, first. How about 100 gold?"

[Khorne]

Orokai thanked Althior as well, and followed the rest of the party as they made their way back to the tunnel that led down into the grotto. There the adventurous teenagers got a less than warm welcome.

"You imbecils! You fishheads! You absolute halfwits! You could have gotten yourselves killed out there! What went through your mind, Brock, taking my keys and running off like that?!"

Eric chuckled and then a wide grin bared his teeth. "You needn't be so hard on these younglings. It is by setting out on their own that they learn to face the real world."

The youngsters' adventures brought back memories to the Norseman. He recalled a particular, not so dissimilar story of his own.

"Back when I was twelve or so, I don't quite recall the amount of winters I had lived then. In any case, I was no more than fourteen, an unge," Eric smiled lightly. "Another tribe had trespassed into our lands and my father had gathered our men to drive back the invaders. My older brother Lod was part of them. My old man had specifically forbidden me from coming, too, but secretly I followed them in their wake."

"When the fighting began I hid amongst some trees and shrubbery to see my brother and father fight. I was so jealous! Then all of the sudden, one of them Baersonling bastards snuck up behind me and charged at my position. Luckily for me he tripped and got his sword stuck in a tree," the Nord's face turned slightly grimmer and more serious. It seemed as if the memory wasn't as pleasant as he had in mind, "I took his shield, which he had dropped and I bashed his face in, while he was trying to get his sword out of the tree."

Eric stopped the story there. His first true kill. The first time he had taken out another human being. He remembered the whole experience had him scared so much, he had wet his pants. When his father found out, the man was furious, but Lod managed to calm him. At the urge of the assembled warriors, Eric was taken up officially as one of their own: a true Viking warrior. His father's anger turned to pride.

Wanting to veil the melancholia in front of his party members, the Nord quickly regained his usual arrogant composure and added: "Anyway, it's a kill or get killed world. The strong survive at the cost of the weak. I was allowed to survive that day and damn, that was a fine kill for a first one, even if I say so myself. Morale of the story: don't be too protective of the kids, it'll make them weak. I made it out quite alright in life, didn't I?" He grinned, but those who truly knew the Nord would notice it was a fake grin.

[Sandy]

Morale of the story: don't be too protective of the kids, it'll make them weak. I made it out quite alright in life, didn't I?"

"It might as well be so, but I'd rather have not my little brother start killing people at the age of fourteen."

[Duvors]

"It might as well be so, but I'd rather have not my little brother start killing people at the age of fourteen."

"Good good, but that wasn't quite enough to make him shut up."

[K-Nut]

Althior listened intently to Eric's story, then listened to the Dockmaster. He was younger than fourteen his first time. That was right when he was abandoned in the world; right before he got involved with the dark arts. And with the dark arts came them...

He quickly snapped out of his trance before he could be scarred further and turned to the Dockmaster. "I, for one, am not overly interested in challenging you. And seeing as I don't hear a great interest for it, I think we should be off, as long as no one else has any qualms about leaving," He turns to Walbartan, "I know you said that you had some herbs to collect and other business to conduct, but a healer would be greatly appreciated. You're welcome to join us, ma'am,"

Walbartan heals Nur and Althior.

[Jebediahs]

"We have already wasted enough time here. Let us continue with our objective."

[Duvors]

"I could arrange you a trip back to Eubric, sure, but it would have to be in the company of some... hmm, shady folk. If that is a problem, you might want to try your luck at Port Taboo or the Wailing Wharf. Now, is any of you gentlemen up for a Decamon match with the local champion? If you manage to win me and snatch my Level 9 card, the title of the Fiery Champion will transfer on to you. Of course, we have to agree on a bet, first. How about 100 gold?"

"Nice, but I myself would rather not, and nope, I'm not even going to try a match."

"Now, last time we where here we left a pile of automaton parts on the dock, do you have them? And a bag big enough to carry them? Because if so I'd like to borrow them."

[Sandy]

He turns to Walbartan, "I know you said that you had some herbs to collect and other business to conduct, but a healer would be greatly appreciated. You're welcome to join us, ma'am,"

"Thank you, Althior", Walbartan says as she tends to his wounds. "I would very much like that. You people are heading for Vega, if I've understood correctly. The marchlands lie beyond the city, and a little stop wouldn't hurt. I'm in no particular hurry."

"Now, last time we where here we left a pile of automaton parts on the dock, do you have them? And a bag big enough to carry them? Because if so I'd like to borrow them."

"My apologies, I didn't think you would have any use for them, so I sold them for scraps. In this tiny community, we have to make due with everything we get in our hands. Too bad about the match, though, I really would've been up for one. The local gents do not have the guts to challenge me anymore, not since I became a champion."
