Same magic system as that You're King reboot?

As in, let me show you my skills by summoning deadly assassin shadows.

[Alexandria]

The are spies and assassins dude, and I didn't downsize the guard. That choice is mine your request was heard and promptly dismissed, sending to few places my blades at risk as well so 10 I decided and 10 it remains.

You can try to use magic to escape but that includes the very real risk it will back fire on you, which would be pointless since they are only along to escort you, I have orders not to harm you.

But they'll keep going either way since they are meant to locate and assist Alexis once your delivered.

Ranging from there all the way up to "everything in a several miles radius is reduced to ashes".

[10ebbor10]

You know what. I got an idea.

We build a really large catapult, and shoot magicians as ammunition. Wipes out entire countries.

((_{Won't work btw. The arceleration would knock the magician out, or kill him.}))

I think it's more 'You just summoned an ancient demon/faerie queen to the mortal realm. You are all now helpless slaves to their whims for all of eternity. Oops!'

They are still not tax exempt.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Don't rely on magic for self-defense if you intend to survive, maybe as a final "I am taking you down with me!", but certainly not for self-defense. Take our word for it.

It's better than dying. And, if nothing else, the threat of MAD should keep the Blades in line.

The are spies and assassins dude, and I didn't downsize the guard. That choice is mine your request was heard and promptly dismissed, sending to few places my blades at risk as well so 10 I decided and 10 it remains.

Then 10 will be left behind at some point. (I'm not sure if you've picked up on this, but Grewie doesn't trust Alexandra.)

You can try to use magic to escape but that includes the very real risk it will back fire on you,

When did I say I would use magic to escape? Magic would be to avoid being killed, if it came to that.

which would be pointless since they are only along to escort you, I have orders not to harm you.

But they'll keep going either way since they are meant to locate and assist Alexis once your delivered.

See above.

I think it's more 'You just summoned an ancient demon/faerie queen to the mortal realm. You are all now helpless slaves to their whims for all of eternity. Oops!'

I imagine there's also a chance of success.

[Alexandria]

How exactly do you intend to escape 10 far fitter master assassin spies, they make a living out of tracking and killing people.

So good luck giving them the slip.

[10ebbor10]

Well yes, but it depends on the time. I assume a spell takes at least a few seconds to cast, even if you're doing it in a hurry. A trained assassin should be able to kill you in that period of time.

Step 1: Offer to take first watch.
Step 2: Walk away.
Step 3: Be aware that since they're master spies and not master rangers, I have a fair chance of getting to the next town before they can find me.
Step 4: Avoid spending too much time in towns.
Step 5: Arrive at my destination.

Well yes, but it depends on the time. I assume a spell takes at least a few seconds to cast, even if you're doing it in a hurry. A trained assassin should be able to kill you in that period of time.

If it comes down to combat, magic is probably my best bet. Likely followed by running, either from survivors or possibly the effects of the spell.

[10ebbor10]

You got 10 people. Dividing over 4 watches, makes at least 2 people per watch.

[Alexandria]

You realise at least 2 men stand watch at a time right? They are assassins and spies mate, your gonna need to do much better then that to slip them while they are under order to protect you. At least 2 will remain awake at all times to stand guard over you, they are professionals after all.

Just let them escort you it'll save you a lot of time and potentially your life if you try to run, they will follow you and if you try to use magic they will kill you on the spot in self defense.
Besides IC I've made no threat against you directly so no reason for you to try and ditch them with bandits and raiders all over the place.

[Digital Hellhound]

Oh for the love of... I'm sure one of you has the bigger dick. Are you seriously gonna spend your time trying to show off how 'badass' your characters are even though you're not even in conflict IC?

[10ebbor10]

Nope, I'm just going to build a road while waiting for interesting stuff to happen.

[kj1225]

I'm going to at some point get some carnal knowledge from a natural philosopher. But right now it's time to make libraries!
