It is decided: Zombies must die.

Nirur Torir - Master of Magic - Turn 1 - It is decided: Zombies must die.

(I changed my mind. Heroes don't get custom names.)

"Thank you my lord"
Suggest we go either on the scouting mission or to attack the undead as my companions may be fierce warriors , may, but they will be less noticed amongst a pitched battle, also ask permision to peruse the magic library and if given permision see if i can absorb a coupple of spells before we head out
{2} - Tauron gives confusing directions to the library. Wolfchild gets separated from the meatshield and lost, but eventually finds himself outside the library, just as said meatshield is leaving.

"Yes, my lord," Morgan said, inclining his head to Tauron. He picked up the indicated scimitar and swung it a few times to test the weight and balance of it, then replaced his current one with it. Ser Neil suggested choosing either the scouting mission or attacking the undead, but the choice was obvious. "The undead," he responded. The call of war lured him towards it.

If wolfchild gets to go to the library, accompany him; if not, go to the stables and pick a white horse.
{6} - Understanding Tauron's nonstandard directions perfectly, SeriousConcentrate runs to the library, completely forgetting to accompany anybody. He enters a perfectly-normal looking building. The interior looks mundane, and he asks if he's even in the right place. A man in a green robe eyes him critically for half a minute, then nods and drags him into a back room with a large pentagram on the floor, surrounded by candles and arcane nick-knacks. Before the nomadic warrior can even begin to voice a protest, he is gently pushed into the pentagram. The green-robed one begins a droning chant, and SeriousConcentrate's senses fill with magic. After what feels like days or weeks of a universe filled with magic striking him, the room goes silent and dark. Everything aches.

The man speaks: "Such is the Ritual of Awakening. Few mortals can take it without breaking, but there is no time for you to spend years of studying. Time marches ever onwards, and dwindles by the day." He places a scroll in SeriousConcentrate's hand, and walks away before the warrior can regather sufficient will to respond. After a few minutes, he too leaves the room, to find the library apparently empty. He exits and finds that only a few hours have passed.

-10 HP
+5 Maximum MP
Counterspell Scroll Attained.


"yes my lord" take scimitar and an black horse
the undead
{5} - Ahra walks to the nearby royal stables, and finds a magnificent black charger. The stablemaster denies his right to take Tauron's favorite horse. A booming voice dramatically emanates from the amulet Ahra wears: "The voucher says any horse. Cinder will serve the war effort better with Ahra then in the stables."

The trembling stable manager silently takes the voucher and prepares the horse. Finally, while handing over the reins, he whispers: "He's very protective of this horse. Even I'm barely allowed to touch Cinder."

Horse Voucher lost
Horse gained!


It is nearing evening.

Round 1 - A whole new Jeff
« Reply #37 on: April 22, 2011, 01:11:54 pm »

Darvi (Round 1) A whole new world Jeff Bob

"What do you mean the planet cannot have a name?" Al answers. "I say we call it Jeff!"
"Hmm, I dunno", I reply. "I always thought of it more as a Bob really." I grin.
"Well, we don't want to waste any time. Let's get packing and start exploring", Fred proclaims. The other two agree.
"Okay. You start walking in the general direction of your destination, and quickly lose sight of the ship. Fred acts as a vanguard, looking out for danger. Rafotto walks behind him, closely followed by Al's character. The canopy blocks out most of the sunlight, not enough to hinder your sight mind you, and as a result it's relatively cool despite the tropical climate."

I roll a dice. It comes up as a 2. Then I roll another one. A 3.
"Welp, that's unlucky. After a few hours of wandering, you start to get bored, and look less ahead of you for dangers and more on your own feet. As a result, you are ambushed by a pair of beasts. They look feline in shape, yet are the size of fully grown bears. The green complexion of their fur provides them with excellent camouflage too. They walk around you, baring their teeth. It's  only a matter of seconds until they attack."
I roll a few dice for initiative.
1, 5, 1, 3, 6."Okay, one of the beasts can attack first, followed by Fred. Then the second beast can make it's turn, followed by Otto and Al." I roll another pair of dice. 3 and 1. "Al goes first".

Initiative:
Beast #1
Fred
Beast#2
Al
Otto

"Remember Fred, you can either try to quickly kill one of the beasts, or you can try to defend one of your protégés. Otto, you can try to scan an enemy, and, ya know, do supporter stuff. Al, you can try to go into stealth and try to SNEAK ATTACK, BITCH! Consider this a tutorial battle,  so I won't give any advice anymore."

D: No names, huh? OK. Switching to 1st-person.

Confused, I look at the scroll. What just happened here? I tuck the scroll into my robes for memorization later, preferable on the ride out, and nod to wolfchild. "Be careful going in there, an odd ritual may occur." Having done my part by warning him, I head to the stable to get a white horse.

Head into the library carefuly, and attempt to find a coupple of useful spells, after which go to the stable and get the most non-standard yet still useful horse there (edit: and follow ahra)

Digital Hellhound - Turn 1 - Settling In

Collect my equipment.

[5] - Taric goes through the safehouse, looking through the arms cabinets. Some of them are locked, [6] but he has no trouble breaking the locks. The cabinets reveal two battered SMG's, a few pistols with silencers, a compact assault rifle and some flashbangs. There's room for more, but whoever used the place last left in a hurry, taking everything he could carry. Taric takes what he needs.

Battered Moloch SMG added to Inventory!
Silenced Pistol added to Inventory!
Flashbang added to Inventory!
Light Armoured Vest added to Inventory!


Search the house for anything to pick a lock or some keys. Bastards have to let us to them some how.

[3] Miles looks around for any lockpicks or anything to help with hacking, finally locating a few lockpicks in the kitchen sink. There's also blood, which is somewhat worrying. He takes the lockpicks and returns downstairs.

2 Lockpicks added to Inventory!

find some guns

[3] Trol Lan follows Taric, taking whatever the other merc leaves behind. Hopefully there will be bigger guns available on the city's thriving black market.

Compact Assault Rifle added to Inventory!
Silenced Pistol added to Inventory!
2 Flashbangs added to Inventory!
Light Armoured Vest added to Inventory!

After they're ready, everyone gathers around the beeping computer. They activate the video channel, and the screen reveals a smooth, wooden table with an ashtray. Cigarette smoke appears from beyond their view. Looks like your employer doesn't want to show his face. He drops the cigarette and begins talking.

'I'm sure you three are already wondering why I've called you here.' he says. You cannot quite place his accent, so he could be from anywhere. 'It's simple - I need you to retrieve a... package for me. It's somewhere here in the city, but I'm afraid I don't know where.'

A few smaller images pop up in the corner of the screen, displaying a middle-aged, Eastern European man in different locations. Another shows a large office building, the kind that can be found anywhere in the financial district.

'There are a few leads, but I'm giving you mostly free hands with this operation. The man's Mihail. He knows everything that goes on in his city - don't underestimate him. You can pay him or bash his head in, as long as you get what you need. There's also another lead, if you want to check it first.'

The office building fills the screen, and you can see the logo of the Aurora Engineering corporation over the entrance. 'My sources tell me that Aurora was the last owner of my package, before it was transferred elsewhere. Infiltrate the building and hack into their database, find out who the new owner is.'

'That's all I can give you. I've taken the liberty of calling a taxi for you to use. Mihail should be in his bar, and the Aurora building is in the financial district. Do not fail me, gentlemen. I was told you were the best in the business.'

With that, the connection cuts out. There's no taxi outside yet, so you can still look around or use the computers on the table.
