Endgame Posted November 14, 2014 Author Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) "The, the warmachine Jeaux, Erdathcath, and *wheeze* me, encountered. When we split up. I think The Woun d mentioned it, how we need to find a weapon in here to beat him. As far as we know, he's... His heart is protected by a ribcage, and the ribcage seems to be unbreakable. Without that *cough* weapon, I... Don't know if we could handle him..." Edited November 14, 2014 by Endgame Quote
Emjajoas Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 "Could that Oculoid be a clue?" Mortimer asks, glancing around, worried. Quote
Kintobor Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 "Could that Oculoid be a clue?" Mortimer asks, glancing around, worried. "It's not hostile... not yet at least." Karie clears her throat before addressing the Oculoid. "Do you speak common?" Quote
The_Customizer Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 "Yeah, I believe that face is very similar to the Warmachine we met. Perhaps he is somehow related to it?" Quote
joeshmoe554 Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 "Or it could merely be a coincidence. A red ring is not the most unique of shapes." Quote
Endgame Posted November 15, 2014 Author Posted November 15, 2014 QM Note: Back to our regularly scheulded Citadel scaling! The Monolith-braned Oculoid speaks for the first time, it's voice slow and sluggish. The usually arrogant tone of the Oculoids merely sounded hoarse and drowsy here, as if it was struggling to choke out each word. Something was wrong with this Oculoid.. But for what reason, and why here, in the very core of Oculoid production...? "Who... Are... You..." The oculoid was practically a zombie,and yet, somehow, its lifeless gaze had only one spark of sentinece: an expectant look towards the party, as if he was waiting for something to happen between them...? Quote
Emjajoas Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 "Heroes. By name, if nothing else," Mortimer announces. "What are you?" Quote
Zepher Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Boomingham crosses his arms and stares coldly at the Oculoid. Quote
Endgame Posted November 16, 2014 Author Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) Boomingham crosses his arms and stares coldly at the Oculoid. As Boomingham stares the Oc uloid down, the demon's eye fixates on the Paladin for a second, before it recoils back... As if it had just been released from a hex of sorts. It stares down the heroes with a newfound calculating glare, life and awareness flooding back into the Oculoid. With the stupor broken, its sluggish speech melts away, causing it to call out a far more dire message. "Intruders! Intruders! Identification: Lawrence Boomingham, Karie Alderflask-Cour, Jeaux Emfyre, Mortimer Mahzan, Erdathcath Madilinas, Johon, Punii, Masson Cour, and Alice Incor! Affiliation: Heroes of Heroica! Threat: Citadel's most wanted, positions 1 through 9! Alerting Monolith Mk II! Alerting Monolith Mk II!" Despite the Oculoid regaining its sentience, it seemed to be far more robotic, even still, than its bretrhen. Was this oculoid just a surveillance drone...? "Boomingham, what did you *wheeze* do to set it off...?" The sound of heavy mechniacal stomping can be heard approaching at an alarming state. "If that's really a Monolith coming, we need to get out of *cough* here, now! We don't have the *wheeze* means to fight him yet... And I don't even know if we have the means to even flee him fast enough, not without some sort of distraction or diversion..." Edited November 16, 2014 by Endgame Quote
Emjajoas Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Mortimer fires an arrow at the Oculoid Drone, grinding his teeth. Only fourth? "Damn," he coughs. "Let's haul megablocks! We opened the door; let's go." Quote
Endgame Posted November 16, 2014 Author Posted November 16, 2014 QM Note: They're arranged in no particular order, really. Mortimer fires an arrow into the Oculoid Drone, not even mortal injury stopping the Oculoid's alert. It seems to have drawn the attention of some of its brethren, multiple red rings now fixated on the party. "Intruder! Intruder! Intruder!" The footsteps were getting closer! Quote
Kintobor Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Karie frustratingly groans. "Why the hell are we standing around here? Let's freaking get the hell out of here before Mono-whatever the heck it is gets here and squishes us!" Karie picks Punii up and frantically runs for the emergency exit. Quote
Zepher Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 "I refused the Regret." Boomingham waves his sword at the Oculoids. "I'm with Karie, let's move." Quote
The_Customizer Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 "Agreed, let's leave, really don't feel like facing another Monolith... I can use a Smoke Bomb to guarantee we escape, is that fine?" Quote
joeshmoe554 Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 "A smoke bomb sounds like a prudent course of action." Jeaux follows the party as they make an escape through the exit. Quote
Endgame Posted November 18, 2014 Author Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) QM Note: I'm sorry that updates have been sporadic lately! It's been complication after complication as of late for the moving process... But now, a significant update! Punii is scooped up by Karie as Jeaux drops a smoke bomb, the grey smoke clashing with the Monolith's own veil of crimson smoke as it stomps into the room. The party gains a quick glimpse of the monstrosity as they flee the scene. "Well, it looks like the marionette and the sapling brought their friends along! Unfortunately, people who intrude in The Regret's factory have very short futures." The party sprints through the emergency doorway, and close the door behind them with a desperate slam. "So that's a Monolith?!" The heroes, still hearing the heavy steps of the iron giant behind them, elect to flee across the hall instead down it, finding themselves in a disposal room. Once again they slam the door shut and lock it, a conveyor stands static at the side of the room, leading towards a furnace possibly dropping all the way down to the first floor crematorium. Masson runs over to a desk in the room's corner and rifles through the documents, finding a paper with today's date. On the other end of the room was another door, this one with no discernable way of opening it... "Take those parts off the be-" The distinct sound of crashing and drilling can be heard near by. "Dammit, I think he might be drilling his way into here... Listen to this! "Heartbreaker Lance: Monolith Mk II determined emotionally stable. In order to not cause any emotional turmoil and possibly undo his loyalty training, it has been slated for destruction." Those parts on the belt are part of the weapon we need to kill it!" The party takes the parts off the blet and spreads them out... Blade Components Hilt Components Building The Heartbreaker -The Heatbreaker has been divided into two components: Blade and Hilt. -Using a description, physcial brick, LDD, drawing, etc., you must describe how to assemble the parts into their specified role. -For parts that can be attached in multiple orientations/angles, as long as they are attached to the correct part/stud, any orientation or angle will be accepted. -The red brick in the "blade" parts has studs on all four sides. -After every failed attempt, Punii andor Masson will observe the attempted solution and provide insight on how to build it correctly. -If both parts are not assembled after 10 attempts, Monolith Mk II will bust its way into the room, and confrontation will be inevitable.

Kintobor Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 OOC: Do we get 10 attempts at both individually or collectively? Karie turns her attention to the door, looking frantically for anything to possibly block it, the sound of the drill ricocheting in her head. "Boys, move the stuff off the desk and onto the floor. I'm going to try and buy us some time in case we screw up. Alice, give me a hand and help me move it to the door. Jeaux! Do you got any gems we could use!" Karie attempts to move the desk to the door, should Alice comply. Quote
Endgame Posted November 19, 2014 Author Posted November 19, 2014 "Close, incredibly close! But... From what I can tell, you have one piece wrong in both." 9 attempts remain! OOC: Do we get 10 attempts at both individually or collectively? Karie turns her attention to the door, looking frantically for anything to possibly block it, the sound of the drill ricocheting in her head. "Boys, move the stuff off the desk and onto the floor. I'm going to try and buy us some time in case we screw up. Alice, give me a hand and help me move it to the door. Jeaux! Do you got any gems we could use!" Karie attempts to move the desk to the door, should Alice comply. QM Note: Collectively. "O-okay, Karie...!" The two women frantically push the desk against the door. It wouldn't stop or slow down Monolith's assault on the disposal room, but if it DID break in, it'd now likely stumble over the desk. Quote
Kintobor Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Karie looks over the pieces, sketching out a small diagram. "Here, what about this?" Ignore the the stars. I'm not sure how to get a plain background, but if someone wishes to tell me how, it'd be helpful. Quote
Endgame Posted November 19, 2014 Author Posted November 19, 2014 "The blade is *wheeze* right, but..." Punii is cut off by another loud crash as the Monolith breaks down the first wall. "The hilt is off... By two pieces, now." Quote
Emjajoas Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Mortimer glances between the door and the blade, running through possibilities in his head but too nervous to physically manipulate the parts. Quote
Endgame Posted November 19, 2014 Author Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Mortimer glances between the door and the blade, running through possibilities in his head but too nervous to physically manipulate the parts. Masson speaks qucikly, but his words are heavy and unsure. "Mortimer... Mortimer, calm down. Deep breaths, or - or something. We have the solution to killing that warmachine in our hands. We can do this." Edited November 19, 2014 by Endgame Quote
Bricksandparts Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Original model for hilt, but switch the cylindrical pieces (the top left 2 pieces in the second picture) Quote
Endgame Posted November 19, 2014 Author Posted November 19, 2014 The pieces don't fit quite right... "Hmm... I think you had the full cylinder piece right... I think you're attaching too many pieces to the bottom end of the thin hilt." Quote
