What would my fans think?

They'd be dissapointed even more than due to note I leave below (comes in two flavours!).

Spoiler: Long Story (click to show/hide)

I'm physically pumped-out. It's not the first time I've been felling trees to do early forest thinning (when the trees are relatively young, we remove mostly trees with diameter below 20cm or slightly bigger, or marked for felling according to Kraft's tree classes) or removing dangerous trees that broke and hang up on other trees (could fall on someone's head at any time and are extremely dangerous to remove) and hauling logs to stockpiles. Did it countless times (especially during summer holidays), but terrain conditions on current spot are terrible and we have to haul it all quite a far distance so we'd be able to load it later on (a usual deal between state's forests - we lend them our hands, they sell us the timber really cheaply). Then when I was back, I worked with father in our carpentry workshop. Just took a shower and got to my bed... If it won't rain tomorrow, this'll repeat.

Spoiler: Short (click to show/hide)

I worked my ass off hard (ways harder than usually, but not something I haven't done before), I'm really physically tired and need some rest. No promises about updating today or tomorrow (chances are I'll do the same tomorrow).

[Glass]

Dude, if you're too tired to work, no problem. We understand. Take breaks when you need them.

[Dustan Hache]

You gotta keep food on the table and a roof over your head somehow. Nothing wrong with that at all.

Take your rest man, you earned it.

[Smoke Mirrors]

Yeah, if I can take forever to write an action, you are more than allowed to take a while on a turn. No one will have an issue with you taking a break for just a bit.

[Enemy post]

Like the others said, taking a break is fine.

[Dark One]

Things were much lighter today after picking one more man to our crew and moved on closer to stockpiles. I might update today after running some errands.

Turn 56

[Dennis: 5 -1, Abyssal Knight: 4] Interestin' choice of weapons 'n armor to be trustin'. If'n it couldn't save you in life, what chance has it got now? You're dressin' like a big deal, but there's only one ending to your story that isn't face down in this here mud. I be the new Duke. Kneel Before Dennis! - Duke taunted the dark spirit, but his masterful taunt only made it laugh!

[Serrana: 5 +1, Abyssal Knight: 2] That is a dark spirit. It has no master or any hierarchy. - Exorcist said, making a runic sign in the air with her blessed staff and banishing the dark spirit back to Abyss!


Ugh... damnit. - Aaron yelled in pain.

[2] He tried to stop snowstorms from occuring, but something failed him once again. They hit again, but with negligible strenght.

[4] Then he ordered plants to retreat. With their last strenght, vines have hidden their spikes and freed dragonruler, then died out in the cold.

[Cryptlord: 1, Aaron: 2] The undead stroke with it's great hammer just close to Aaron, but somehow it bounced off the crypt walls and hit it back, stunning it!

[4] Dragonruler shifted into a dragon!

[Aaron: 4 +2, Cryptlord: 1] He charged at the undead with a flurry of greatsword slashes. Stunned Cryptlord couldn't see it coming and took a full force of his blows!

[Aaron: 4 +2, Cryptlord: 5] Then, he started breathing fire. The undead instantly turned ablaze, but it's body wasn't affected by the fire at all! It seemed that it was delighted by the sudden change of atmosphere!

[Cryptlord: 6 +2, Aaron: 4 +2] In a fire frenzy, Cryptlord rushed against dragon attempting to grab him, but Aaron managed to escape.

[2] It all happened so fast that Vivian couldn't even react!


Greetings Jeramesh, we are trying to locate Seymour and a demigoddess. Do you want to come with us? - Pguhyuh asked the undead.

[4] I could go with you, but I have to do something first. I'll join you when we meet next in the cathedral. - Jeramesh replied.

You are a skilled sorcerer, and your help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe you could teach me about your fire magic, if you are not busy. - Demonologist said.

[1] Eh, I'm not the best teacher. Besides, why would you want to learn destructive magic if you won't use it at all? The other dude following you seems better fit for such art. Now excuse me, I have to go. - Undead sorcerer said, heading away in search of it's portal.

[6] Pguhyuh and Smoke enter the portal. Their bodies were broken into countless tiny particles and travelled through time, space and realms until they rebuilt themselves in Height Keep... On it's rooftop...

[6] Lysander, Naablvat and Stumpy went through as well. On their eyes, the reality they were in shifted and changed until they found themselves in outskirts of some forest. In the distance, they could see Height Keep on hills.


[5] Reynald entered the stables and examined the horse. It was in good shape and perfectly ready to ride, it had war armor and even a nice load of food prepared as well!

[6] Then inquisitor met the owner of this steed. It was a heavily armored undead in knightly elite armor, weilding a longsword. A siege crossbow belt was sticking out of it's chest. Undead elite knight gurgled loudly and spat out some blood.

[Undead elite knight: 5, Reynald: 5 +1] While the knight charged, inquisitor managed to draw his shield and shortsword. In the last moment, Reynald blocked a powerful overhead swing!


[Alexander: 4, Zombie Bob: 2, Ghatzu: 2] Peasant jumped closer to the undead that tried to bite his companion and bisected it with a swift sideway slash!

[5] All this taint and evil slowly gathering upon him allowed Alexander to learn how to cleanse the darkness of himself!


Cryptlord: -10 HP, -60 HP, Fire Frenzy [150/240]

Zombie Bob: Dead
Undead elite knight: [180/180]

Abyssal Knight: Exorcised

Aaron: 4 turns for dragon form to end
Alexander: +1 taint, +2 evil, 1 undead killed, learnt Dark Cleansing with 2 turns cooldown, Wild Charge enhanced
Serrana: 1 dark spirit exorcised

OOC

Before someone starts arguing about damage:

1. You only deal halved damage to yourself.
2. Resistances and immunities.

Also, overshots are more important than modifiers (they always were in this rtd). That's why Aaron's still alive.

[Enemy post]

"...That'll do. Come along friends, I scared 'im off."

Continue clearing the village of undead.

[Glass]

Retreat and rest. Take evasive maneuvers and make sure I don't get hit on the way out.

[Dustan Hache]

"Mors pro te velle."
take a defensive stance, and Siphon the undead knight.

[randomgenericusername]

I think we will have to climb down, Fzbxr. I wonder where did that other guy go?
Descend from the rooftop, try to find the others with help of Smoke infravision.

[Glass]

Whelp, assuming that I survive to my next level-up, here's the plan:

Golden Dragon's Resolve: When attacking an enemy, either downgrade their resistance by one level (i.e. immune to high resistance, low resistance to no resistance, does not go past no resistance), or, if attack would give a buff to the enemy (i.e. with the Cryptlord and his "fire frenzy"), it doesn't.
This would allow me to almost always be able to deal some damage, and, more importantly, prevent enemies from benefitting from my attacks. With this ability, we wouldn't get scenarios where I accidentally heal our opponents for 80 hp (it would instead deal 0 damage, due to removing the buffs and leaving the immunity), and other such inconvenient occurrences.

[Dark One]

Note that 10 is the damage Cryptlord did to itself. Damage you dealt after all the protection kicked in was 60. Fire Frenzy does not block damage. It's a passive skill, not just a buff so you'd have to be able to block skills.

[Tiruin]

Do some Faith Healing, and if possible, do some Prayer-ing.
Then tag along behind the Duke!

"...That'll do. Come along friends, I scared 'im off."

Serrana nodded in agreement, happy for such a stoic and leaderlike ally. In all honesty, she would've laughed (with no offense intended) if she was younger in experience, but she had learned how to treasure such character. . .especially when everything around you was undead.
