((@Guin: Yeah, but I feel we've hit a slight bump in the road here :P Waiting for updoot.))
Yeah just because Oreo and Xant are having hard times right now, but I've got kewl ideas up in my brain matter right now and the lull takes the pressure off and gives me a chance to think of more cool shit.

As long as you're pleased with the actual plot and combat and happy with it then I'm super happy. I also totally forgot what the rune stuff for GWG's dumb crossbow was and I don't feel like looking for it. Mostly because it was dumb and stupid anyways and now I feel like changing it for something else. I love retcons.

One was bolts being oddly unnoticeable.

GWG you still need to update your illustrated suggestion game that I like! You're too busy!
Fair enough...biggest problem at the moment is that I don't like the battle system...JRPG battle sprites? Makes sense--of course, I'd have to check other JRPG cliches too...

Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

Do you guys like this game?
YES. This game is pretty awesome, although I would like combat to be more tactical.

If you write up a sprite page of characters and bad guys, then you could simply copy and paste them onto some background battlefield to make some nice pictures. That's how I do my illustrated stuff. It takes some initial investment to start it, but then you can make pictures very quickly and you just need paint. Heck, if you want, I could try to make some wretchedly bad looking ones.

Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Yeah that's why I generally avoid that kind of thing in my games, because I'm not experienced with it. :) Expect tougher and more meaningful fights once we reach Chapter 1. The real game hasn't even started yet baby cakes. But then there's always the chance that it'll still suck. Ah well.

Welp, since scapheap hasn't stepped up, GWG is on the plate now. Congratulations! You're temporarily Xantalos! :D

EDIT: Also I think I need one or two other turns. Didn't check though.

Mostly a boring treasure hunter. He's brother to Jerik, a "searcher" mage. Whatever the heck that is... So far it's implied that they mostly get along, but it's up to you depending on where you take this dialogue.

"Dran, I still think this Bubble Sphere could serve us well. I mean, I could use it to defend ourselves from further harm, but... I suppose that it's value would also help us..."
"How are bubbles going to help us? They might stop arrows, but it won't do much to a sword, and it certainly won't help rabbits fall for your 'traps' or get us rations. We're treasure hunters, this is treasure--the path is obvious."

Awesome! Good to have you back finally!

I need GWG's actual turn, and Gamerlord needs to get into the habit of bolding his actions. Seriously should be second-nature by now, but I usually don't say anything when I see it.

I hadn't realized I hadn't submitted a turn yet.

Translate the runes. Keep an eye out for danger and such.
