Look at the bottom of the post for the situation.
(to the leading officer)Now that that's out of the way I shall proceed with the bindings as agreed. Any questions?
Bind the dragon's wings, but leave the rest for the civilian militia to handle.
I'm going to have you put a muzzle on him as well, because I don't want to dragthis capture out anymore. Freddie doesn't like the muzzle, but Dev has said he'll submit to it.
Wake up and attemp to regenerate limbs through sheer force of will. Plot to murder monkey as soon as possible.
((How do stats actually work? I had 2 in strenght and constitution and both did no damage to Kongor AND was defeated in a single hit by him. He has 1 strenght and 0 constitution.))
Stats modify the base material of the character race you begin with. a 0 is average
for that race. If a pixie with +4 strength and a troll with -2 strength armwrestle, the troll will win, every time. That's why I laid out all that stuff about octopodes and Gorillas before resolving the fight. the autosuccess of Kongor's attack was, again, because you were literally wrapped around his fist, and the ground is virtually impossible to miss. And quite frankly, if you had wanted it fairer, Rex would be dead due to suicide by cop half a dozen turns ago.
As for the eye character, that really was bad luck. Well, that, and trying to force a locked airlock. I know it's discouraging to lose a character though, or to lose a battle. But take heart: Rex is the primary reason that flock of evil birds lost earlier. So you've progressed the mission pretty well already. And Rex may have failed against the goblinoids, but so did everyone else. Heck, Kongor tried more than once to chain lightning his gauntlets, and failed each time (much to my own disappointment).
(5) you awaken, deactivate the diamond skin necklace, and begin regrowing limbs. Your rogue limb returns to your control. so you have 6 full limbs and 2 stubs.
I'm clearly a cooperative individual! Look at how cooperative I'm beingivememyknivesplease
(3) the guards bring your knives nearby occasionally, and let you whisper sweet murder to them. It's almost some sort of perverse game with these guys. maybe you've made what passes for friends with your kind.
Get bound up according to the rules from before. Walking is okay too, even if it isn't as fun as flying. Still cool stuff to look at.
((It looks like you took some hits from before, with your rogue tentacle and in the collision earlier. You're right about that last mission being a bit of a fuckup, though. And don't worry, Freddie doesn't hate you, if he sees you in trouble from someone outside the pack he'll certainly rush to your defence.))
Alright. In the interest of brevity, I'm having Kongor muzzle you, as that was a primary concern for your captors. you mentioned expressing displeasure but going along with it.
(4) One of the wizards tosses a large, glittering ball ahead of you. It makes different noises as it rolls. sometimes it chimes, sometimes it clatters, sometimes it makes a thunking sound.
(you can add that to Freddie's inventory if you like)
You are transproted to the city. And perhaps the more intelligent among you realize, from the size of the guns protruding from massive slits in the thirty foot high walls, the faint hum of some kind of electric dome overhead, wiht foxfire racing up and across the surface of it occasionally, and the sheer scope of the city (surrounding the Bridge on all sides, extending a mile and a half out from the central tunnel in every direction), that this 'settlement' was not as simple and easy a target as suspected.
you are all fed, separated, and placed in cells of various kinds. The cells are comfortable, clean, and properly lit. Freddie's bindings come off as he enters his cell (I'm going to assume, between Kongor's coaching and the smell of food, Freddie goes in without a fight). Rex's cell is mostly underwater, with glass windows through which the guards communicate via speakerkelp, Freddie's is cavernous and cool, with a big pile of rounded stones to sleep on. Kongor's actually has plant life growing inside, and the sound of birds. Gak's is, in fact, a torture chamber, and he is tied securely to a rack and stretched. It's excruciating. Vlad's looks like half library, half armory.
You are individually questioned about the events you experienced.
If you have anything additional to say, go ahead and say it to your questioners now
A very large, rather fat man in a steel studded leather get-up is shouting questions at Gak while applying his tools of the trade.
a rather plain looking woman, wearing the insignia of a wizarding school, speaks to Kongor
an officer of some kind speaks to Rex, via the kelp transmitters
a completely naked, bald man with very pale skin (some would call it alabaster skin) addresses Vladen
nobody really asks questions of an immature dragon.
