Okay, first off, Ignacio has an amazing full name, and I will not ruin it by running that through google translate.

It means something?
*Google Translates it*

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

"Ignacio the Construction Masterpiece and Best of Sandstone"? Gronk is scowling at you, Ignacio. Although, you did survive while he died...

As for what to do in battle, I am at school, and cant see the map. It seems to me, however, that the best possible plan of action is summoning a guardian angel near Oscar, and let him walk into puff of flame range with the angel tanking hits for him. Syn is still an Elven Symbiote Aspirant, and as such still has the fire weakness. A soul burner puff of flame should do the trick. We just need oscar to get in range safely.

I'd rather not burn Oscar's Extra Lives so liberally. I'd rather have him get 10 meters away, then use a Fiery Dash, followed up by some variety of cherry tap. Or pre-cherry-tap with the bow.

Send Amelia on the adventure, as we could still have some chance of bringing Gronk back.

What, we can't bring Am--nope, couldn't keep a straight face.

Problem is, Fiery dash has a chance of missing. While I don't really want to use one of Oscars lives, it would certainly kill it dead. They are both really good ideas.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Checking the stats...yowch. I don't want to spend a soul, but I don't want to have a 90% chance of missing.

Ignacio, Wishbone: Advance.
Ithan: Hm. I'm not sure what spell to use, so I'll advise him to shoot the elf or move into bow range for now.
Oscar: Follow Ignacio and Wishbone.

+1, but instead of shooting the elf with Ithan, just summon an angel near the advancing people. Syn is making me really nervous, so lets play it safe. Besides, if it lives, we can use it to heal the escort.

Hmm, I wonder, is Gronk perma-dead? Golems from my understanding have either a spread through material consciousness, or a core. I believe that since Weirdsound didn't say anything about a core, it was spread consciousness, but that means a golem could technically seperate into two seperate beings. So, weirdsound, what is the method of golem animation? Or is it one of those messy "Shove a soul into a body, and let it move"?

[escaped lurker]

... gronk did drop his core. Ignacio is holding onto it atm - well, technicaly the group-inventory does, but you get the point, right?

On another note, as I have been wondering for some time now; this thread is not hopelessly dead, so what are you doing here, posting and stuff? I thougt you were only about necroing ... 


Wait a moment right there - would a creature of light attack wishbone? Is his undead state only considered unnatural, or evil right of the bat? Anyways, ー1 to summons that would result in attacks on our regular cast.

[Weirdsound]

"When they were preparing me for the rites of slaughter, they warned that good aligned summons would likely refuse to heal or buff me, and may not think twice about making me collateral damage of an area of effect attack, but that they likely wouldn't go out of their way to hurt me unless I started making level-up choices to exploit my undead state or ended up going full on Disney Villain evil!

...The second option kinda appeals to me. Give Ithan a turban and some jewlery, and I'd totally pretend to be his parrot sidekick! Without flesh or feathers, I bet I can sort of pass for a parrot!"

[anailater]

... Yeah Wishbone is the best, also

Checking the stats...yowch. I don't want to spend a soul, but I don't want to have a 90% chance of missing.

Ignacio, Wishbone: Advance.
Ithan: Hm. I'm not sure what spell to use, so I'll advise him to shoot the elf or move into bow range for now.

+1 to the first one with the second ones fix.

(I want to say that Ignacio's name was already google translated into Spanish from English, as there are some inconsistencies. I can translate it into proper Spanish if you want, but I need to know the original idea of the name, as I would be inventing part of it. As a tentative name, I can say that it would be " Ignacio of the Masterpiece Construction and Best Sanstone". Which in Spanish would be "Ignacio de la Obra Maestra y la Mejor Piedra Arenisca". But I don't know what exaclty wants the GM)

[Weirdsound]

"Yeah. I took two years of Spanish back in 08-09, but the only things I seem to have retained are a few basic survival sentences and how to congregate AR verbs. So yeah, I used google translate to come up with that stuff. It is also how I get Ithan's Latin incantations for summoning angels and demons. It works for a comedy project such as this where I can just pass of bad translations as stylistic suck.

I believe what I put into the Translate box was along the lines of 'Ignacio of Masterwork Construction and the Finest Sandstone', so yeah, I'm guessing what you got is close enough." 

[Tomcost]

(Then I think that it would be "Ignacio, la Obra Maestra de la más Fina Arenisca". Which would translate into "Ignacio, the Masterwork Construction of the Finest Sandstone". This way it sounds more like an epithet, but I think that it is what you where aiming to get.)

[GreatWyrmGold]

"When they were preparing me for the rites of slaughter, they warned that good aligned summons would likely refuse to heal or buff me, and may not think twice about making me collateral damage of an area of effect attack, but that they likely wouldn't go out of their way to hurt me unless I started making level-up choices to exploit my undead state or ended up going full on Disney Villain evil!"

"Good" is kind of a jerk, isn't it?
Well, given our luck, this would probably have been how we discovered that healing spells hurt the undead.

[glow=purple,,2300]...The second option kinda appeals to me. Give Ithan a turban and some jewlery, and I'd totally pretend to be his parrot sidekick! Without flesh or feathers, I bet I can sort of pass for a parrot!"[/glow]

...Eh. A bit corny, in my opinion. Also I'm pretty sure you're a bit big, he's a bit small, and genies are a bit absent for that plan.

[nuclearwhale]

Alright, keeping in mind that the Angel will be a jerk to Wishbone, but not outright harm him, he should stick behind with Ithan. Oscar should me more than capable at handling Syn, as even a minimal damage puff of flame does 7 more damage than it needs to. Therefore, its not really necessary to bring Wishbone, or even Ignacio for that matter. As wasteful as it might be to use a life in this manner, it is probably the safest possible way to handle Syn, unless I'm missing something big.

[Vgray]

I'm starting to like you wishbone.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Starting?
