StickFig Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 You seem confused... Do not be so quick to dismiss my view. I was not always a knight-cleric and I have traded in weapons in my time... Shame you may not live to learn from your mistake. Matthias looks towards Calmcacil, once again struck by just how deep these elves go. Cool as ice, and too fiery to handle, the gnome thinks to himself. Quote
Chromeknight Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Nerwen notes the brief flash of surprise on Matthias' face at the mention of her previous activities. Two and a half centuries I have lived. Did you think I merely sat around writing poems about butterflies and drawing pictures of flowers? she asks with a smile. Quote
StickFig Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) As the paladin swings her mourning star, Matthias can hardly believe she noticed his look. Cool, fiery, and quick, he thinks. "I suppose never really thought about it - two and a half centuries is five generations of my people..." Edited July 6, 2014 by nstickney Quote
Chromeknight Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 It is Nerwen's turn to look surprised. I did not know that about gnomes. Even with what I have seen, there is still so much I have not. Quote
StickFig Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 "My grandfather was 46 when he died, and his father died at 47." As he turns back to the fight, Matthias offhandedly adds, "I count 21 years now and not more than 30 to come." Quote
Zepher Posted July 6, 2014 Author Posted July 6, 2014 Russel looks back and forth between Nerwen and Matthias, and Purpearl and Matthias, and the Assassin and himself. He charges into combat regardless of whatever his little crab brain might be thinking. XX just grins at the whole situation, continuing his attack. Quote
Purpearljellyblob Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 "My grandfather was 46 when he died, and his father died at 47." As he turns back to the fight, Matthias offhandedly adds, "I count 21 years now and not more than 30 to come." Purpearl cannot but think about the family she used to have. "Life. Blessing? Curse?" says Purpearl enigmatically, to no one in particular. Quote
Kintobor Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) Well booo. I thought that ranged weapons negated that all around. Oh well. I just caught this - not sure how Matthias lost 3 health in the first round, but he's *Blessed* in any case so he should be full health by now, with the adversary *Blinded* and *Sealed*. Matthias fires another round at The Assassin. As he loads between shots, he glances quizzically at Calmacacil and Fenral. "Bloodpaw? Metasimians? I've never heard of them." Firing again, the ranger thinks for just a moment and yells to The Hostage, "Do you have a name, arms dealer? Is there a good reason for us to involve ourselves like this?" > Matthias: XX Hand Cannon vs. The Assassin > Matthias: XX Hand Cannon vs. The Assassin Well, they do actually. I'll let the rounds stand as they are, but I'll remember for next time. That was a goof on my part, most likely. Otherwise it was me making calculations, then realizing something was off, and not fixing it afterwards as a mistake. We're all human here. The arms dealer responds, sweating profusely. "Look, you get me out of this, I'll tell you anything you want!" Turning to the assassin she says. You seem confused. Are you trying to suggest the gangs make money by arms dealing? Are they the customers of arms dealers or are they the sellers? Do not be so quick to dismiss my view. I was not always a knight-cleric and I have traded in weapons in my time. And not simply from some sweatshop forge in a backwoods valley but proper elven made swords and bows. As for telling you how to do your job, regardless of whether you cleaned up afterward, reflect on how simple your kill would have been if you were somewhere where we did not interfere. Shame you may not live to learn from your mistake. The Assassin spits in Nerwen's direction. "From what my client told me, this man sells weapons to the Bloodpaws, the Metasimians, and some other schmuck, a Wolfgang defector. All three of those groups are known for armed robbery, murder, mugging, drug selling, the list goes on. A leopard does not change it's spots, paladin, not easily. My weapons are made to be sturdy and durable, working weapons. Not your flashy elvish rubbish. Don't change the subject during an argument. I won't fall for your petty defences. Says the "heroes" that murder people out in the open, for all to see. The Oracle's Temple, the Founder's Day Ball, the incident at the Albatross Inn, the Fantome Croise, shall I continue? When you kill someone, what do you do with their possessions? I've heard you rummage through the body, disgracing the corpse and stealing their valuables they had in life." Battle Order >Purpearl - Scroll of Sealing, Assassin- Failure!

"Tell us whatever we want? I thought an arms dealer might have something more tangible than information, for a group that's saving your life," Matthias laments, firing again at The Assassin as he finishes his sentence. "When you kill someone, what do you do with their possessions? I've heard you rummage through the body, disgracing the corpse and stealing their valuables they had in life." "Heh, I got paid all of 30 gold for my last assignment - and it lasted nearly six months! Tell me you've never supplemented meager wages with whatever you could grab." Speaking with his eyes on The Hostage, Matthias addresses the party, thinking out loud. "I'm starting to wonder if this man is worth saving - maybe we should just head out?" As he waits to see if The Hostage responds, he shoots another round at The Assassin. > Matthias: XX Hand Cannon vs. The Assassin > Matthias: XX Hand Cannon vs. The Assassin Quote

"I'm starting to wonder if this man is worth saving - maybe we should just head out?" "If you wish to leave me to my job, I'll consider this offence nonexistent.

As the battle comes to a close, the patrons begin to come out of hiding. Nicole and the mercenary begin to come too, the accordion player and her companion crawl out from behind the table. even Justin Featherhead peaks up from behind the bar. "W-w-what a mess! D-d-did you kill him?!" "You... saved him? Hmm... I wasn't expecting that." The arms dealer begins to come too, waking up next to the body of the assassin. He humps up, rubbing his hands against his coat hurriedly. "Phew! Well... thank you, Heroica. You, uh... saved me from that maniac. If it means anything, here, have some of the money from the deal I was making. 50 gold, split it how you want. The names Amos. Amos Briggins." "You sure you want that, Amos? It is-" "Pigeon, it's my money, I'll do what I want with it." He hands the bag of coins over to the heroes. Looking around, the party noticed they were getting awkward looks from the patrons. Justin clears his throat. "If you *sniffle* would please, I-I'm going to h-have to ask you to l-leave. Immed-diately." It seemed everyone else was getting up and getting ready to leave, Justin's whimpers audible from behind the bar. Was the party ready to leave. Quote

Purpearljellyblob Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Purpearl's health should be 20/20 and ether 10/16. "Phew! Well... thank you, Heroica. You, uh... saved me from that maniac. If it means anything, here, have some of the money from the deal I was making. 50 gold, split it how you want. The names Amos. Amos Briggins." Glancing at the assassin, "Amos, I suggest you take extra precautions from now." "If you *sniffle* would please, I-I'm going to h-have to ask you to l-leave. Immed-diately." "I apologise for the mess, we should get going." Loot Distribution Alexis - 12 gold, Venom Matthias - 12 gold, Smoke bomb Nerwen - 12 gold, Venom Purpearl - 14 gold Edited July 9, 2014 by Purpearljellyblob Quote
StickFig Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Matthias rolls his eyes at Featherhead, disgusted at both at the proprietor's cowardice throughout the encounter and his sudden pushiness, blaming the party for what's transpired in his establishment. He can't think of anything biting enough to say to the man, and they do need to be on their way, so he simply accepts the items from Purpearl and stashes the smoke bomb away. Moving over to Nicole, he helps the Tritech engineer to her feet as much as he can given that his height doesn't quite reach the woman's waist. "Take good care of the Fireball for me - I'll see you in a week," the gnome says once she's assured him there are no lasting effects of her episode. His own weapon looked after, he hands the XX Hand Cannon back to 'XX' as well as his share of the gold. "I believe I owe you two coins more, 'XX'," he says, subtly pronouncing the single quotes as he wonders if the man has a 'real' name, "plus a chance to test the Fireball once the Tritech people finish with it. Thanks again." When Fenral speaks up, Matthias nods agreement - he is ready to go, but he notices the harlot is leaning oddly and appears to have lost a considerable amount of blood. "Lady Alexis, are you alright? Lady Nerwen, I think she might need some help!" The gnome moves over to give Fenral a hand as necessary, and watches Calmcacil closely, hoping to see a healing and maybe learn something. One day I'll be able to heal as well, he thinks.
