Heroica RPG- Quest #103: Alfendi Lupine Strikes Again!

[Lind Whisperer]

"From the rather obvious noises they so courteously made, I do believe we should hurry to the foyer. Although the Trophy Room is an obvious target, we should make all haste to first group up, as otherwise their numbers may prevail over us."

Edited August 7, 2014 by Lind Whisperer

[swils]

Cellar is directly connected to... ?

"Right then. Too much noise, gotta be a distraction. Obvious ways in are the doors in the Kitchen and Foyer. Did any of you take note of the windows in any of the rooms, especially ground floor?" he asks those with him in the Sun Room

[Kintobor]

Cellar is directly connected to... ?

The Foyer.

[swils]

Well jeez, show it on the map, then!

Edit: Also, thanks. Heh

Edited August 7, 2014 by swils

[Kintobor]

The entrance is shown under the stairs, it just doesn't show the layout of the Cellar and Storage Room. It's been mentioned quite a bit though that the two rooms were connected.

I can edit it in, if it helps, though.

[swils]

Ohhhh. Now I see it. Yeah, the exact connection slipped my mind (I just got off work, slightly fried, haha). If no one else is confused by it, then there's no need to change things.

[UsernameMDM]

Hoke should be in the Upstairs Hallway. The last room he investigated was the Bathing Room, and then he entered the Hallway with Guts, Lind & Alexandre.

"It may be a distraction, but at least one of us needs to make sure."

Hoke leaves the Upstairs Hallway to investigate the noise in the Kitchen.

Hallway - Foyer - Dining Hall - Kitchen

[Scubacarrot]

Guts immediately Flees to the Foyer.

[Capt.JohnPaul]

"Come on!" Alexandre rushes into the dining hall.

OOC: My updated stats are in my signature. And should I have a +1 power bonus from the mushroom?

[swils]

He sighs, and follows the rest of the group to the Kitchen. (3 turns if I'm understanding it right. Do we have to give each action/turn separately?)

Also, Thormy's defense should be at 20 (8+(4*3) from the cloak)

[Lind Whisperer]

Lind, not wanting to be left out of any loot, spends his first turn hurrying downstairs to the Foyer*.

*Capt.JohnPaul makes a good point - I'll go one turn at a time as well, and suggest that we all post our movements accordingly.

OOC: I'm stating one at a time so it'd be easier to run rounds and because we might find something.

[UsernameMDM]

Hoke silently rushes to the Kitchen, ready for anything that might stand in his way.

[Kintobor]

Rounds 1-3

Party makes their way to the Kitchen from the Upstairs Hallway, through to the foyer, then the Dining Room, and finally the kitchen.

Making haste, the party rushes to the kitchen. As they open the doors, they come face to face with a fierce looking foursome.

They were an odd looking lot, a shark-like humanoid, a were-turtle, and a woman with no facial features and pale skin. The only normal looking one was a man with scraggly hair, which Alexandre recognized

"SMASH THEM!!"

"Calm down, Tenma. Wait, I remember you... you're that black knight from the sewers! I suppose I shall consider this my revenge. I'm no Wolfgang grunt since we last met. I am Alfendi's lieutenant, and most trusted member. I, Daniel Collins, will live to fight another day."

"Enough of the boasting, Collins! Grab everything you can and let's haul out of here!"

"I bore of your banter, boys. I have to prepare."

Before the party's very eyes, the woman turned into (Random Number Generator: 1) Guts! The stern alchemist readies a faux Lifestealer as the four crooks confronted the party!

SP should be at 20.

Thormanil attacks McCoy from the front row.

[Lind Whisperer]

Lind attacks Fish-Faced McCoy from the back row with his Darker Ethereal Deck.

"Let's see if you can sink your teeth into this!"

Ooc: I'm going to follow it up with my Ethereal Deck, and then retrieve.

Edited August 11, 2014 by Lind Whisperer

[swils]

Worry about the loot after the fact.

[Scubacarrot]

How is battle order decided? Also, I should be wearing the Overkill Gloves and the Jester's Hat instead of the Pugilist's Gloves and the Blessed Amulet. Guts should also have arrived in the Foyer in one turn, so what happens with that?

"He does not even look like me. Does he? I'm much taller."

Guts attacks Daniel from the front row, twice.

"Hoke. If he's copying me exactly, he'll be immune to darkness magic."

[UsernameMDM]

"Hoke. If he's copying me exactly, he'll be immune to darkness magic."

Hoke looks again and nods.

"And I bet Lucky to boot. And Hastened. And Encouraged. Mayhaps we should leave her untargeted and let me take the hit. I believe I can handle it. Elsewise you would be the best one here to counter her."

[Kintobor]

QM Note: In case it wasn't clear, I've included Chrysalis's actual level, considering she's now Encouraged. As well, if you won an item during the Lottery, feel free to consider using it. Update will come once you guys figure everything out, as it seems there is some confusion. Also, if someone wants to be Party Leader, feel free to speak up and I'll add that as well.

[Lind Whisperer]

Out of nowhere, a pink* flash of light sparkles, and Lind's already somewhat weighty Bag of Hoarding gains another few ounces**, as a shiny Anniversary Medal drops into it.

"Master Hoke, as I'm already wearing your Medal of Glory, would you care to wear my Anniversary Medal?"

Ooc: Does handing an artifact in battle to someone else cost a turn for either/both of the parties involved?

**I know that the Grogmas Z-Mail invitations were on pink slips(I think...) and I attributed the same color to the delivery system...

*Also, was an official Heroica or regional standard of weights and measures ever made?

"Wait till after this battle is done. Our time is too precious, and we must concentrate on our adversaries."

Hoke continues with his plan. Enchantment goes to Hoke's Shield.

It will take up a hit, Hoke can take the free hit, and if Hoke gets a Spellspin Blade, he can get multiple attacks with double damage at least 2 of the enemies. If anyone has a better plan, let me know.
