Keep running. If Mordred has a clear line of fire to the pursuers, he tosses a few more arcs of lightning at them. If he doesn't, and the knife's sentry continues to fall dangerously far behind, he'll use telekinesis to give them a little bit of a boost. Assuming that that's the sort of thing which doesn't have an excessively high chance of failure.
Mordred turns, plants his feet, and lets loose with all his rage, screaming about nonrestricted energy and laughing maniacally. it's thie kind of thing Comrade would enjoy, having made his character to do exactly this. the lightning arcs everywhere in front of him, hitting several of the pursuers and the sentry, and the knife, which glows white hot for a moment. the knife's consciousness is disrupted for a moment, but ((checking .. Con of 0. Good enough)) it regains itself. the sentry's consciousness is gone however. Mordred telekinetically pulls the knife to himself and turns again, running for the woods.
Cho Ja
Keep running, find a space up ahead to calm down then buff mordreds speed when he arrives.
follow him after that.
Mordred arrives, rather singed and slightly smoking, hand somewhat burnt from holding a hot knife, and the two of you leave. You seem to have shaken pursuit. It was pretty close for a while. I thought several times that I would have the joy of renaming the thread. You lucky bastards.
"SO IT JUST FORGOT ABOUT ITS SMALLER COMPANION? SOMEHOW, I DOUBT THAT THAT IS THE CASE. BUT... I SUPPOSE THAT IS AN ARGUMENT FOR A LATER TIME.
IN ANY CASE, I SAY WE HANDLE THIS LAST ONE AS WE DID THE OTHERS. I WILL ATTEMPT TO STUN IT WITH PAIN, WHILE YOU ESTABLISH CONTROL OVER IT WITH THAT DOLL OF YOURS."
Assist Clunkers in his search with my own farseeing ability.
"Firm Statement: You will not torture our temporary prisoner of war and very soon to be comrade-in-arms. This one does not believe the creature of vines would lie about this.
Query: However, that does mean we have an additional hostile to contend with. How are we going to deal with it? I could attempt to freeze it in place once we find it, perhaps creature of vines can make it see reason once we have captured it."
try using robutt computing to find out who this mystery enemy is and where he's at
also, do i know of an omega legion contact point i could send vine guy to so he can get recruited?
You do not know of an Omega contact. You'll have to take the vineguy with you.
Clunkers and Terrance both fail to come up with any new information, except that Clunkers does remember seeing that litle cloud of smoke appear in the field at one point, centered near the combatants but not centered on any one of them. Clunkers guesses that that had something to do with the other guy.
..."I'm not sure why I even bothered to give you this chance."
Yeah, he isn't going to help. It's time to dine.
Mmm. Satisfying. Want to try the troll next? Or the sorcerer?
Patrol the surrounding area. Kill the vine guy first. Though
You walk right up to the vineguy and ram your blade straight into it's thickest vines. It doesn't even have time to dodge. But it does shift immediately after, and roar. You dodge out of the way as one large limb of entangled vegetation comes flying toward you. Hostilities reengaged. I cannot believe you survived that. Again. These were the rolls. 5.1.5.1.
