DmofAlterak 01-23-06, 02:46 PM	Welcome to my Campaign of Illisinaria there are a couple things you may want to know: 1. no evil characters allowed. 2. no bad stuff. 3. I am the DM :) (this over rules all of the other rules). 4. All editions allowed. 5. You should probably post some of your characters stats, or background, appearance, etc. or tell me where to find them. 6. Some spells and powers are not allowed. 7. Enjoy!
DmofAlterak 01-23-06, 02:54 PM	The world is called Earth by humans, Rurac which means Big rock by the dwarves and the gnomes use the name as well, natures realm by the halflings, and Illisinaria by the elves the races borrow the names from eachother where they meet and so it has been called by all these names by various peoples. The land where your characters start is divided into numerous kingdoms each with individual kings the first characters start in Uiop which is ruled by king Fart and you have also heard (your characters) that there is a swamp in the kingdom (there is) ruled over by a strange reclusive but powerful king named Q'afuu he controls the jungle threw his servents and lives in a castle made of solid rock somewhere in the heart of the jungle few have seen what he looks like and so it is not widely known....... Other Information The standard coinage is Cp Gp Sp and PP and there are many stores in the huge citys where your characters can spend their gold and silver etc. There is a king of Uiop called Murphy who has a long brown beard and lot's of: money, land, subjects, military forces including the knights of the red pig feared more because of their bravery than of their bad breath, horses in his royal stables, and various breeds of mutant chickens. There are magic shops in the wealthier citys selling many fake items of magic as well as some genuine magical things such as: potions, scrolls,rings, boots, shoes, and wands among other things. The multitude of kingdoms frequently are changed by civil conflict and other influences as all the kingdoms and those within in them vie for power or just try to remain whole among the conflicts of the other kingdoms currently the largest kingdom is Uiop south of the centaur mountains ruled by the king Murphy Scalande'iver his imperiousness and his high council which he seldom listens to and which has no real power over him. the people are mostly farmers the majority of which are wheat farmers and they celebrate semi annual festivals at some harvests and plantings throughout the season the knights of king Murphy Scalande'iver his imperiousness are known for their lack of knightlyness as they are generally chosen for no discernable reason by the king and follow no code of conduct why the king even has the knights who roam around and seldom visit the castle except to take advantage of it's hospitalities and who he dose not order to do much of anything it is also known that the king is eccentric and a powerful warrior and that he used to be a knight for the past king of Yemer king Ferezoulned the fourth. There are monsters and strange occurances all across the kingdoms from dark knights taking princesses captive, to evil sorcerors and wizards plotting to take over the world or other evil schemes, to Nilbrogs and Erotg monsters plagueing the villages in kingdoms and not to mention villanious groups of scheming wizards and evil guys such as the Red Tooth an organization of mad evil wizards and part dragons who in secret plot any way to cause chaos they can think of. Also there are the elves and fey creatures of the forest such as the Eixiep and strange but benovolent water sprite. Deep within a certain forest there is a blue clear pool of water in a clearing surrounded by vines and a multitude of plants which is said to enchant those who look upon it sometimes showing them visions. Deep within another forest there is said to live a chipmunk which can speak and speaks dwarven often it is in a grumpy mood and some say it used to be a dwarf druid.
DmofAlterak 01-23-06, 02:59 PM	Your characters are all in an inn the inn of the wild ostrich to be exact in the town Ofaserfer many people lounge about the inn: commoners, farmers, traders, adventurers (hollering about some evil magic sword in a dungeon nearby possesed by an arch fiend who will soon destroy Ofaserfer), some healers mumbling about a guy called Trevor who broke his leg, and some dark cloaked wizards who look distinctly evil whispering to eachother. There is also a board on the wall with some various articles of information posted on it such as proclamations and job offers.
Taeldrin Laesrash 01-23-06, 06:58 PM	Welcome to the Map of the Planes board. Here you will find endless adventure and fun. But first, here's some pointers. 1.This place has no dice or editions or squat. Here we roleplay, acting out stories with our characters, who are just that. If you want to play here, I suggest finding an open thread, which seems to be...nothing at the moment. If you want to try running a campaign, go to the Real Adventures boards. 2. The campaign itself seems poorly designed. You may have a basic design down, but that's about it. And your opening is completely devoid of anything interesting. It's practically railroading. My advice would be to put some more concrete detail into the setting, and when you have that down, you can start making the campaign. You might want to try out some of the adventure hooks in the Dungeon Master's Guide.

You might want to try out some of the adventure hooks in the Dungeon Master's Guide. I make up my own stuff some times. As for the "railroading" I intended it to be an open ended roleplaying situation so the pcs aren't forced into any specific adventure and can choose their own path for themselves i.e I am trying not to railroad the PC's. And as for the Campaign: I just wrote it yesterday but thanks for the heads up on detailing it better! :)
Snotagnome2 01-24-06, 06:06 PM	Any one that comes to this game if you are a D&D player: play this game I played with him before and he is really good. he makes his own D&D games most of the times and there better then the books. I,m not a very good player so sorry if I make your game look stinky. :ayyyy!:
Taeldrin Laesrash 01-24-06, 08:29 PM	You're welcome for the advice. I'm sorry if the railroading comment offended you, I chose it for the lack of a better word. And good luck with writing it out. But seriously, this isn't the pace for this. The Real Adventures (http://boards1.wizards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=278) board is the place for this. PM the mod there and see if you can move this thread.
Agudo Archmage 01-24-06, 10:28 PM	OOC Hail and well met new one I Agudo offer you a warm welcome in your first attempt at Storytelling here I think many of your basic info is fine if some what lacking in detail and quality Yet I must say Im sorry in advance if you think were being overly tuff on you Never the less with that said...... None here with any respect for their Chars and themselves will join with such a low brow Neanderthal DMing style do to the lame joke of the Kings name DmofAlterak Uiop which is ruled by king Fart From what I read that was the only thing really holding your game/story back from others joining in. Once more don’t feel bad truly it good to have a fresh person around please jump into another Story by someone else....just PM before doing and Im sure you will be a fun person to have around :cool:

Snotagnome2 01-30-06, 05:07 PM	My guy is a human called Stinkagnome. He wears a white cloak and a black belt, he has black scraglly hair, blue eyes, his weight is 145 pounds, and his height is 5'8'. He dose not like goblins 'cause a goblin stole a worthless figure of a dragon that was passed down from father to son for 10 generations he dose not trust any one 'cause his father said to not trust any one. He wants to find the statue of the dragon. He wears a long sword on his side it dose 1d8 d. it has a red ribon around the hilt it is a ribon that has a good luck charm on it but he dose not know that he also has a badge that he got at wizard school ('cause he was so bad at it and he got in to fights with other wizards 'cause he was bad at spells) that was cursed to not by able to hit wizards after that but he didn't wear it. He's trained himself to fight also he made enemys with one of the wizards he was colled Thegen after a another fight with Thegen he was kicked out of the school and the school wizard put an enchantment that the badge would stay on him. Then he set ot to earn enough money when he heard about adventurers he decided to be one with the rest of his money he bought some equipment. He has a brown sack, ten torches, flint and steel, rope 50ft., grapling hook, tent, sleeping bag, leather armor +2 ac, long sword that I mentioned before. His STR is 16 +3 INT is 10 WIS is 8 -1 DEX is 13 +1 CON is 14 +2 CHA is 12 +1 SKILLS climb +7 jump +7 swim +7 FEATS power attack cleave and wepon focus long sword. TREASURE 10gp 5sp. his HP 12 AC 13 fort +4 ref +1 will -1 speed 30ft. He asks the bartender if anything odd happened lately, if not he buys a mug of beer and then gos out in to the town or what you call the town. :fight!:
DmofAlterak 02-01-06, 05:00 PM	Yes you can play. Thanks for the compliment! The town is called Ofaserfer and the Inn is called the Wild Ostrich. The dashing Stinkagnome enters into the Inn his scraggly dark hair waving about his face and looks around at the assembled patrons before walking up to the bartender the black robed mages surrepticiously glance his way seeing the ribbon hilted sword at his side and lower their voices. The bartender is a slim older man with a balding head of a scraggle of white hair and has large ears his face makes him seem knowledgeable and grumpy and Stinkagnome asks "has anything odd happened lately?" While filling a glass with ale out of a large wooden barrel proped at an angle over a small back taible which is very long he glances up and stares at Stinkagnome with focused light gray eyes surrounded by white "depends what you call unusual" he says while first completing filling the glass and then moving over to the long front bar table and placing the glass down "if you mean more unusual than the norm than nay.....but if you mean the usual unusual" he chuckles lightly at his own pun "then theres a fair bit to tell" the bartender watchs and waits for Stinkagnomes reply.....
Snotagnome2 02-03-06, 02:30 PM	With a dark growlly voice but not to sound angry "Well is there any quests that you now of." :)
DmofAlterak 02-03-06, 02:52 PM	Snotagnome2: "what do you mean 'look stinky?' I am glad to have you!" :) The Bartender looks at Stinkagnome incrdulously: "Quests??......you must be new around town.....well there aren't any quests in this town specifically..but there are a great many I have heard of.." the bartender trails off and then starts serving the customers and starts telling Stinkagnome about a whole bunch of quests that he's heard about including: I am out of time for now bye. :) Well I am back. :) so here are some of the quests the bartender tells Stinkagnome about: "I've heard about a princess in the kingdom of yiwan to the east that was kidnapped from her chambers but no one knows where she was taken and so the king and queen have put a nice reward on her safe return apparently some black knight was out for revenge for the king outlawing him in the kingdom so I don't know if she's still alive or even if she's been found already rumors travel slow some times you know." "Some knights in the neighboring kindom of Kalver that kindom ruled by king Therbold the tyrant ya heard of him?..anyways some of his royal knights are on a quest to rid some dungeon of fiends and Errgors in the forest of the green serpent their crazy if you ask me but whose to say that all knights aren't crazy anyway..I doubt they'd let you join unless you got yerself knighted by king Therbold himself but if he gets made at ye you had better watch out he dosen't toast you or throw you in the dungeons instead." "Down south in Sereshard the king has a few problems I'm not sure you'd call them quests but he's put up some rewards for various monsters in his kingdom being taken care of you see his armies and forces aren't that strong and so his kingdom is being overrun by all kinds of monsters he could use a good strong adventurer to help him out I'd say." "I've heard of a couple more but why are you interested in quests stranger? are you a knight or something? or do you just want some kind of adventuress job or something? I've a fair few more things I can tell you of if you aren't looking for stuff just to do for kings....." The bartender gazes with his white gray eyes at Stinkagnome sternly waiting for his reply.
Snotagnome2 02-06-06, 03:59 PM	Well I have only been playing for a few years and I'm not the best player for how many years I played either. :) My guy says I want to be an adventurer but this is my first time and I don't know what a good adventure would be for me, do you know of any adventure here that I could do. :)
DmofAlterak 02-06-06, 04:14 PM	Well I have only been playing for a few years and I'm not the best player for how many years I have played either. :) No problem Snotagnome2 you can definately play. :)
DmofAlterak 02-07-06, 01:00 PM	The bartender looks slightly exasperated as he serves a plate of steaming vegetables to an impertant looking woman wearing a white gown with starry sparkles in it and an elaborate head piece in the shape of a swan "why didn't you say so in the first place?! making a poor old innkeeper such as me self ramble on like that about all them quests....all you wanted was an adventure? well let's see a nice quest for a new guy..hmmmm..hey! wait a sec are you alone on your adventures or with a group because that may make a difference.....If your alone I would recommend seeing the town mayor Mr. Grimorson he told me to pass on the word that a covert opperation underground is in need of accomplishment and you might want the job he said all I could tell you was that Nilbogs were involved their nasty, filthy, weak monsters I say, but cunning and when theirs lot's of them they can be a down right menace to a village he also mentioned a reward in gold.......
Snotagnome2 02-10-06, 05:38 PM	I am just alone and I would be delighted to go on this adventure do you know where he is? :)
DmofAlterak 02-10-06, 05:44 PM	The bartender seems amused at your characters interest in the quest and says "yeah...you can find him at the town hall or at his house if he's not there" then the bartender gives Stinkagnome directions to the mayors house and the town hall. A guy burps loudly behind Stinkagnome.
Snotagnome2 02-28-06, 05:11 PM	I say "Thank you very much" and throw him 2sp and then go to the main hall. :)
PrGo 03-09-06, 08:50 AM	My char is good and fights to vanquish evil. I hope you'll accept me... :D Name: Marco Race: Human Age: 23 Hair color: Blonde Eye color: Emerald green Dessy: Marco looks like a viking. He is a viking. His boots, gloves and cloak are made out of wolf pelt. He wears black bear hide as both clothes and armor. His magical belt that protects him from cold is made of white dragon leather. He carries a magical greataxe, Rimefire which he uses to deliver justice upon evil creatures. His long blonde hair is straight and his beard is tied so it looks like two smaller (I can't explain well. Best for you to see here: http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/969/marco0da.jpg ). He wears a horned helmet. The horns are actually white dragon's. Marco's body is very muscular. His master say that he is powerful as a minotaur and he looks like one with his helmet. When he sees evildoers nothing can stop him from totally destroying them. History: Marco was born in a small village far north. When he was about the age of 5, a white dragon known as Nidhogrym killed his family. Marco watched the scene and it haunted him all his youth. He was found by a shaman Boren after wandering the north for a few days. The shaman taught him how to fight and survive. He taught him almost everything the viking knows now. When he reached the age of 18, Marco decided to find Nidhogrym and avenge his family. After a epic fight, he defeated the dragon by chopping its head with his axe. He took some of the dragon's leather, his horns and as much hoard as he could carry. His belt was made of the leather and the horns attached to his helmet. After his old master died he decided to travel south and vanquish more evil.
DmofAlterak 03-13-06, 03:17 PM	Your character is pretty good PrGo and you can definately join the adventure. On his way to meet Mr. Grimorson Stinkagnome runs into a big hulking muscular viking wearing what seems to be a white dragon hide belt, bearskin, and a helmet with white horns on it various people in the streets stop to look what will happen since this small gnome just crashed into this big tough looking viking guy.......
PrGo 03-14-06, 08:06 AM	(Isn't he a human? Not a gnome) I look down to the human and laugh *You should watch where you're going. You might have bumped into some orc who would strike at ya immedeately.* I smile to him.
DmofAlterak 03-17-06, 02:35 PM	Your right he is playing a Human! I am the DM and I don't even know one of my character's races. :) Do you think I should wait for Stinkagnome to post again or assume his character's actions until he posts again? The villagers smile as well: relieved that nothing confrontational happened and go back to their work. A burly guy with deep brown hair and a tweed cap heads back to a simply made stall wooden stall with an overhanging blanket draped between two poles on the top and continues to sell his potatoes to the other villagers and people in the market square; he is quieter than some of the other sales people but muscular (though not as much as Marco). A thin man with a hawks face, sharp small nose, and brown keen eyes yells shrilly selling his wares he has a greedy look about him and wears moderately expensive white clothes he also has a small silver medallion with a magical symbol ingraved in it on his chest held there by a silver chain it appears his stall (which is fancier than the burly man's stall.) has a white cloth on it and sports numerous shiny daggers and small swords on it along with a smattering of multi colored potion bottles he yells shrilly "Cuyear Cuyear! potions of luck and wisdom sold here. Swords of everlast at a price that won't!"
PrGo 03-17-06, 05:15 PM	(I think we should wait for him) *I ain't gonna buy at that stall* I say noting the greedy man's stall. I wait for Snotagnome's reaction...
Astron the Wizard 03-18-06, 01:12 PM	I am a changling rouge (don't listen to my screen name) who's name is Kronthor. I'm approximatly 28 yrs old in human maturity rates. I have a short sword on my belt and a thieving helmet (Arms & Equipment Guide) in my pack along with the banner of the elves (preferably wild elves?). I also have a poisonous dagger hidden in my boot. I have white hair and white skin, and white eyes, because I'm a changling. Tell me if this is okay. If it is, I sneak behind the greedy merchant's stall while he's distracted by potential customers (or maybe the stinky human and the viking?) and steal his money box, or pouch, or whatever. Then I sneak into an alley. If I'm caught, I start runing till I'm out of sight for the smallest bit, when I change into an elf. I'm in the shape of a human with brown hair and blue eyes with a scar running down my cheek when I do this. :P
PrGo 03-18-06, 02:07 PM	I saw you stealing from him and go after you. I leave Snotagnome to his thoughts. I enter the alley and when I saw only a elf I look around for some clues where the thief could go. After I find nothing I come to the elf. *Have you seen a human carrying a small bag in his hands? He came this way*
Astron the Wizard 03-19-06, 12:49 PM	Kronthor scrunches up his face as if in thought, slowly nods, and points to the roof. DmofAlterak: If PrGo leaves, I look in the bag, or box, or whatever. If he dosn't I calmly walk away. :P
PrGo 03-19-06, 03:18 PM	I look up and search the wall for some cracks to hold to when I try to climb up. I find none so I turn to the elf. *How did he climb up so fast?*
Astron the Wizard 03-24-06, 03:10 PM	I shrug my shoulders and turn to walk away. Alterak: I still don't know if I'm even allowed to play.
DmofAlterak 03-27-06, 03:21 PM	To: Astron the Wizard: I would be glad to allow you too play but may I point out one of the few rules of this game: no evil characters. If your character is indeed good and only of a roguely manner than you can join the game. In your characters background information you wrote that you had in your back pack an elven flag prefferably wild elven; this is fine I would just like to point out that the wild elves do not make high tech fancy color flags; more or less they just take some animals fur and stick it onto a stick with sinew etc. As Kronthor is trying to walk away casually: 20 gaurds wearing chain mail with their swords out confront both Kronthor and Marco. The leader an older middle aged man with scruffy facial hair and plate mail barks out "HEY YOU a thief just went down this way (the gaurds and security forces of Ofaserfer are fairly competent.) the thief went down here and it looked like a human...." The gaurd captain looks accusingly at Marco....but then he says "I am taking you both in for questioning." A younger gaurdsman pipes in "They might be in league you know-" and the captain cuts him off "yes I know that's why I am taking them both in for questioning." The Gaurds advance on the pair of characters.
PrGo 03-29-06, 02:02 PM	Marco calmly puts his right hand on the axe handle on his belt. *I'll go but my axe stays with me* He eyes the capitan cautiously while waiting for a response.
DmofAlterak 03-30-06, 12:52 PM	The captain of the gaurdsmen replies to Marco with a quick cynical laugh "Ahhhhhh..a tough guy eh!?....we'll see about that..drop your weapons and come queitly; if you're innocent then you'll be fine..but if your guilty....." he let's his sentence trail off in what he hopes is a threating silence but one of his junior gaurds coughs in a sneezy way and he gives him an angry stare. The gaurds wait to see what you do next the younger ones look scared of the towering figure of Marco (he can see it in their eyes and and some of them are trembling.) even some of the older gaurds look scared but hide it better. The gaurd captain however looks like he's not scared at all more like merely looking like he has the air of one who knows he's going to win and is quite confident that any resistance you may give him will basically be pointless in the end. He dose look like a competant and experienced warrior you notice (both Kronthor and Marco). DmofAlterak: "Would you guys like a more goofy/humorous campaign style or keep it more or less as it is?"
Snotagnome2 03-30-06, 01:15 PM	I say to Marco "the orc would be in more trouble than me." I back up Marco.
PrGo 03-30-06, 02:22 PM	DmofAlterak@ I don't know... we already play a funny one so let's keep it as it is. Snotagnome@(Hey, you're back! :D) Marco narrows his eyes and looks at the capitan. *I come from the Icewind Dale, from the barbarian tribes that live there* he started eying the leader carefully *I fought the terrible beasts that live there and killed the white dragon Nidhogrym* he continued speaking, louder every word, looking more taller and intimidating as he spoke *And you think that YOU CAN STOP ME!?* he yelled at the leader. While he was talking, he took his axe and it burned to life with cold blue flame.
Astron the Wizard 03-31-06, 02:57 PM	DmofAlterak: no, I'm not evil, simply chaotic nuetral (or maybe chaotic good, I'm not sure) Can I change the wild elven banner to the high elven banner? I would like a sillier campaign. That's what I'm used to. I drop my short sword, but keep my dagger hidden. :P
DmofAlterak 03-31-06, 04:13 PM	Hmmmmmm so PrGo wants to keep it 'as is' and Astron the Wizard wants it to be sillier. What about Snotagnome2 do you think he/she wants to play sillier? :) Personally I like a blend of humour and other elements of gaming such as: adventure, tons of plot, mysteries, problems, monsters, evil wizards, and roleplaying but I do like silly too. The gaurd captain while Marco tells his speech incredibly seems pretty much unfazed while the rest of the gaurds alternately back away, faint, look too their captain to see what to do, and stare wide eyed at Marco; then the captain says "yeah and I'm Boroc Captain of the third gaurd and I've been busting criminals and evil doers since before ye was born.." he glares resolutely at Marco and nods to the elf changed into Kronthor but then Stinkagnome backs up Marco supposedly telling the gaurds that Marco went after the thief and didn't steal anything. The captain gives Stinkagnome a puzzled look and then says "Aghh! this is the part of my job I don't like; now I have no idea who's lying and who's in league with who and whatnot..for all I know your all in league or none of you stole anything; so how about you come with me to the gaurd house and we'll work this whole thing out proper with witnesses and all.." a smile creeps over his lined facial hair covered face "..or you could just attack us and make my job a lot easier 'cause then I wouldn't need no evidence to throw you in jail" A blue colored rat wanders down the ally and it has three eyes and stares at Kronthor; then it looks at his sword appraisingly for as second and bites it. :rolleyes: This represents the rat looking at Kronthor's sword.....sort of.
PrGo 04-01-06, 01:38 AM	Ok, I agree for a silly game. But continue your adventure but with more fun and jokes. Like The Order Of The Stick! :D As the capitan says that last part, Marco's eyes narrowed even more. *I'll go with you. But you should know, these muscles are not just air and this fire* he pointed the axe directly to him *is not just light effects* he put his axe on his belt and waits. He looked at Snotagnome, smiled and winked as thanks for standing by his side.
DmofAlterak 04-03-06, 05:39 PM	Thanks for the vote on the sillyness Prgo and Astron the Wizard! :) Silly it is then...... The captain of the gaurd spits on the ground drooling over his chin a bit and says (yells etc.) "OH YEAH!!...I DON'T BELIEVE THAT YOU KILLED THAT DRAGON NURBY OR SOMETHING......and I think yer muscles are made of air....their too big to be real.....DROP THE HONKING BIG DOUBLE BLADED AXE WITH THE FAKE BLUE FLAMES AND YER COMING WITH me!." The captain rather looks insane at this point represented by a combination of this: :crazy: and this: :mad: (with less frown and some drool). Then....Kronthor hears it first with his good elven hearing: a soft padding of slippered footsteps possibly a size 10 on the wizard slipper scale and when Kronthor turns and looks he see's a tall sinister looking wizard dude wearing white robes of such a bright hue that they hurt the eyes and he is wearing the crest of the gaurd: a blue shield with a silver threaded smiley face in the centre :) he has a decidedly sinister expression on and he is possibly evil behind him walks the hawk nosed, greedy merchant whose money box is now in Kronthors possesion he says to the gaurd captain in a sarcastic voice "My my my having some trouble with a couple of....." he trails off looking at Stinkagnome who's wearing a white cloak and black belt and has scraggly black hair, Kronthor who looks like an elf, and Marco who has bulging muscles a bear skin for clothes and armor and who is wearing a wolf skin pelt cloak and then continues his delayed sentence "....people.....perhaps a fireball would help?..only joking (he says this in a way so that it seems like he may not have been joking.) ha ha. The captain who is frothing bubbles at the mouth replies quickly and angrily "I have everything under CONTROL!" "I see" the wizard says sarcastically. The blue three eyed rat looks at Krothor's shoes in an appraising sort of way..... :D To Astron the Wizard: "Yes you may have a high elven banner which is of many bright hued colors so bright that they may have magic in them and bright silver threads bound in a few places as well it is valuable if sold because of it's artistry and craftsmanship."
Snotagnome2 04-04-06, 05:53 PM	I tell the captain that Marco went after the thief into the alley.
DmofAlterak 04-04-06, 06:12 PM	The gaurd captain Boroc looks over at Stinkagnome drool still clinging to his chin with a strange look stareing look too his eyes at Stinkagnome and says "Eh?" The wizard in the white robes who has a white moustache which is rather long but looks combed neatly and some sparse bits of white facial hair still looks meanly at Boroc, chuckles sarcastically, and then seems to relax and waits to see what will happen. The hawk faced keen brown eyed Merchant looks rather annoyed. Marco, Stinkagnome, and Kronthor all hear a flapping noise from a way off in the air to the north west. The blue rat with the three eyes attempts too bite Kronthors foot but he can make an attempt at something before it dose (such as moving his foot or leaping back etc.).
PrGo 04-05-06, 02:58 AM	The barbarian looks to the north west but stands still and calm all the time. He doesn't react to the capitan's yelling.
Astron the Wizard 04-06-06, 04:47 PM	Ha! You think I'm going to jump back?!!!! No way! When It goes for my foot, I lift my foot up and step on the rat. Turning to the wizard, I say, "Is this your familiar? 'Cuz it's a deformed reject-like thingy. I just thought you might like to know..." I turn to the guard captain and say "So, refresh my memory, why are you taking us in for questioning? And no, I'm not going to just attack you. That would be too stupid of me...and too slow *cackle, cackle* I want your death to be long..." at this point I say "just kidding", imitating how the wizard said it.
DmofAlterak 04-13-06, 05:58 PM	The rat jumps for Kronthor's foot and suffers a boot on it's top. Marco thinks he sees the faint outline of what looks like a dragons wing too the north east...... The wizard glares darkly at Kronthor and replies "No that is not my familiar" and later after Kronthor imitates him glares at him again and rubs his hands together as if mentally contemplating the best way to curse or zap Kronthor. The gaurd captain yells at everyone in front of him "Okay fellows choose between......" he is cut off when there is a tremendous roar from the north east and something that sounds like a forest fire erupts in the middle of town....... The gaurd captain looks stunned for about 2 full seconds as he stares into space and then he quickly barks "GAURDS watch these fellers.....and you too Aqran I want them still here when I get back....." he then runs off past your characters in the direction of the dragon (unless your characters run or otherwise move before him).
PrGo 04-14-06, 02:48 AM	When he heard the roar, Marco dashed in its direction. He must stop the dragon in killing innocent people. If capitan tells him to stop or tries to stop him, the barbarian ignores the puny man and continues his goal.
Astron the Wizard 04-14-06, 07:05 AM	As I dash after Marco I motion for the wizard to follow. "If you come, you'll still be watching us. Besides, we need a wizard. :P ________________________________________ ___________________________ With a cry of WALLAWALLA,justice shalll be served.
DmofAlterak 04-18-06, 05:47 PM	The gaurd captain ignores what your characters are doing and Aqran the wizard says too Kronthor "A brilliant idea.......are you sure you weren't a wizard in a previous life?" and smiles. Then he runs after your characters. At his cry of "WALLAWALLA justice shall be served" all of the gaurds return to conciousness and are roused to righteous action, give a shout, and follow after Kronthor. First Marco runs over the gaurd captain, then Kronthor runs over the gaurd captain, assuming that Stinkagnome is going with you he runs over the gaurd captain next, and then the wizard runs over the gaurd captain. He gets 59,590 subdual damage and is knocked out. Then a ninja who was on the right hand roof top of the alleys building and who was planning too jump down and attack Marco for the fun off it a few seconds before leaps down and runs over the gaurd captain as well yelling as he hit's the flagstones "HEY! wait up you guys I wanted too use my new monkey kick kung fu move on you!" You find that by following the dragons roars (the gaurds are following your characters and Aqran the wizard too help out.) you come too a large burning building: the town hall it is on fire and burning quickly villagers are trying desperately too qwell the voracious flames the dragon is no where in sight but Stinkagnome catches a glimpse of some purple skinned small thing with claws at the left hand side of the building. With a start he realises that this is where the mayor is that the bar keeper of the inn told him about.
Snotagnome2 04-19-06, 06:16 PM	says "Hey I didn't know you were so mighty or powerful" too Marco. says too the gaurd captain "since I am a witness I can go right" and gose over and Stinkagnome checks what the purple creature is.
PrGo 04-20-06, 01:42 PM	Marco looks at the burning building, anger growing within him. He sees no dragon so he goes after Snotagnome saying *The beast shall pay dearly for this*
Astron the Wizard 04-23-06, 12:44 PM	Come come now morons, thy dragon lies yonder. Wouldth it not be better to fight this perilous beast, lest he causes any more destruction unto the town than to examine doth purple abberation?? :P
DmofAlterak 04-26-06, 06:44 PM	Too Marco: "Do you mean: Stinkagnome? Whew! it seems I'm not the only one too mix that up." :) Aqran says as the gaurds run madly towards the well in an inadequate attempt too stop the raging flames "What purple abberation?" he looks around and then starts casting a spell muttering arcane words that sound like the whispers of a northern wind. The ninja runs up and hunchs over his hands on his knee's and pants "Yeah what abberation?" he puts his right hand over his eyes and looks at the flames "Doseth thou meanest that yonder purpleith skinned monsterith over therith?" he murmurs but so that everyone can hear and then runs at a sprint toward the creature yelling out "Face the power of the mighty monkey kung fu KICK!" Stinkagnome peers with his keen human eyes over and sees a small warty purples skinned monster that has long white claws and yellow eyes which glow with a malicious evil light it's watching your characters as if waiting too see what you'll do it also looks both evil and scared at the same time; you can tell by it's face. And then as Aqran finishs his spell dark thunderclouds coalesce out of nowhere and form an ominous black expanse that blows over from behind him and then starts a torrential down pour over the whole town but more so over the mayor's building. The fire looks as if it's going too go out and there is a mighty thunder clap and soon after a flash of lightning in front of all of your characters. Aqran smiles arrogantly....... "Akkkk!" says the ninja who is soaking wet along with everyone else "This will take a very long time too dry out." "Perhaps a fireball?" Aqran says and smirks evilly. As a reminder this is where the mayor was located as the bar keeper said too Stinkagnome that was going too give Stinkagnome a covert mission too complete.
Snotagnome2 04-27-06, 01:43 PM	I run to the destroyed town hall where the mayor was and run in to see if he is okay. :)
Astron the Wizard 04-28-06, 06:01 PM	:P As a reminder this is where the mayor was located as the bar keeper said too Stinkagnome that was going too give Stinkagnome a covert mission too complete. I also run to the mayor's town house and ask if he's okay, while taking gold with my other hand.
PrGo 05-01-06, 10:08 AM	*You just run, I'll take care of the fiend!* Marco said, walking to the purple creature, Rimefire in his hand, burning with blue flames. He eyes the creature carefully, watching for any sudden moves. As the creature watches him he quickly grew inpatient. *I'm the one that killed your grandma!* the barbarian taunted at the creature, while standing in defensive position.
DmofAlterak 05-01-06, 04:01 PM	The purple creature with evil in his eyes says "I killed my Grandma!..so there!" Then it eyes your flaming axe: Rimefire and says in a monsterish voice "I surrender!" It drops it's weapon on the ground (it had a short sword sheathed at it's belt). :plotting: The purple creature then says "Spare my life and I will lead you too the greatest treasure hoard in the world." :plotting: Entering the now mostly doused but thouroughly destroyed town hall: Stinkagnome and Kronthor make their way deep into the interior of the building while the wizard Aqran and some of the gaurds follow; helping the wounded people out of the building. Through a ruined doorway overhanging into the corridor on the second floor your characters find the mayor who is badly burned and may be dead he is lying on the floor. :yuck: Kronthor found no gold but he did if he wants too manage too steal some silver and copper coins off of one of the wounded people in the building who looked like a greedy beuracrat. Looking around for gold Kronthor finds a crumpled piece of parchment with some scribbled ink on it. When he picks it up he finds that it has scrawled writing on it presumably the mayors and says "Akkkkk.....I'm dying! dying I say! if only I had a poodle too fix my noodle!.....What did I say?! I'm losing my NOODLES!!....Wait...need...too....tell.. ...I....them.....monsters.......Prevelin ......The dragon......dont' go near the snakes!........." Kronthor notes that the:.....'s are very well done. The ninja circles around the purple creature and says too Marco "Okay fellah we can do one of two things....either we don't thwack this foul monster or we do thwack this foul monster in which case I'm willing too make you the fair deal of fifty fifty dibs on him." The monster (continuing too look evil in the eyes.) looks at Marco unmoving the words on his face being "I'm evil" and "he's crazy." :ahem:
Snotagnome2 05-02-06, 02:48 PM	My character helps the mayor with kronthor. I look to see what is wrong with him and try to get him to a healer in town. :)
PrGo 05-07-06, 02:56 PM	*Alright. I hate Evil more than Chaos so... LET'S KICK SOME DEMONIC BUTT!!! (By the way, we share 70:30)* Marco yells, charging. He lifts his axe above his head in the run and strikes at the creature when it came in reach.
DmofAlterak 05-18-06, 07:08 PM	Stinkagnome discovers that the mayor is indeed alive but he is unconcious and in desperate need of medical attention so he begins to carry the big mayor out of the building along with Kronthor (I assume :) ). The monster is surprised at Marco's move and before it can fully pull it's sword from it's sheath Marco's axe strikes it atop the head a mortal blow and it falls with an evil hiss to the ground. It's last words are: "FOOL you could have been ri.." The ninja looks at Marco with a buessness like frown on his face and then after a trailing moment as you both stand sopping wet he says with his ninja blade held loosely in his hand "Hey you said 70:30 not 100:0." and then he glares at Marco in an offended way and picks up the creatures treasure saying "I get all of his cash as repayment for your debt and you still owe me your life two times over before we're even." He then continues to scowl as Aqran a ways off shakes his head and the ninja unstraps the monsters sheath and sword.
Astron the Wizard 05-19-06, 04:34 PM	I draw my weapon and advance into the town, looking for wounded residents. :P
DmofAlterak 05-25-06, 05:42 PM	Sorry about posting without waiting for you Astron the wizard. Too make it up to you: You come upon a pile of wounded and wet residents laying in the middle of the road groaning and then a huge whirring smelly headron marker bouy with five razor edged gun darts on it's malevolent spokes attempts to attack your character from the air...... :88E: But yon wizard stands his ground as his companions come to his aid..... Marco hefts his mighty axe but is knocked into a buildings wall by a smelly headron tentecle robot arm. Stinkagnome draws his sword but is to late and the creature farts on his head: Fart! he falls dramatically to the ground. Now only Astron stands before the charging beast and he crys his voice ringing in it's metallic ears "WALLA WALLA" and smites it down with his weapon; he is victorious! Your character get's 4 xp. :)
PrGo 05-26-06, 11:24 AM	Marco gets out of the wall. He walks to the robot. *rolls for an engineering check* *17* (Is that enough to take its parts and make a coffe machine?)
Astron the Wizard 05-27-06, 02:39 PM	*frowning* either I'm not familiar with this xp system, or that was one bleeping low reward. Oh, Well. :P Leaving Marco to his coffee, I try to help the citizens as much as I can, making splints, bandages, etc. DmofAlterak: I'm all for the humorous campaign, but please tell me you have a plot, or at least some kind of world planned out. Nothing too deep, as much as you want, mind you. :P
DmofAlterak 05-29-06, 05:37 PM	*frowning* either I'm not familiar with this xp system, or that was one bleeping low reward.

Nothing too deep, as much as you want, mind you. :P Aha! this adventure has a very deep and convuluted plot* and I am glad that you are interested in one......perhaps you haven't figured it out yet...by any chance? If you cannot find the traces and hints of this plot in the earlier posts than I might consider giving you some hints. *Okay maybe it's not that deep and convuluted but there is one to be sure. 'Headron Marker bouy monsters are easily defeated and worth only 4 xp apeice' Marco and Stinkagnome get no damage from the creatures attacks but Stinkagnome is still unconcious yes a 17 engineering check is enough to construct a coffee machine from the wreakage. :) I am now waiting for Snotagnome2 to post and then we can continue on the adventure.......If your character's can find it. :)
techhunter 06-06-06, 09:23 PM	I would like to join in. Here's my character sheet character sheet (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?p=9328564#post9328564)
DmofAlterak 06-09-06, 05:42 PM	YES! :) It would be great to have you in the game techhunter. If you are interested in checking out the few rules 'basically no evil characters and such' then you can check out the first post if you have not alreadly. June twelfth approaches...... :D :D :D :D :D
DmofAlterak 06-09-06, 05:47 PM	While I have been away from the wizards community boards while they are down I created a yahoo profile and a group on yahoo at: http://ca.groups.yahoo.com/group/Illisinaria Basically it's like the layout of the wizards community boards except without the neat features and stuff. The good bit is though.....I am the moderator of the group and so nobody deletes my posts or says you can't post that here (except me :) .) And it has a world map of Illisinaria on it. And also you can make polls....lot's and lot's of polls. I currently have three players on the game which hasn't fully started up yet.
techhunter 06-10-06, 06:33 PM	Great!!! When do we start?
Snotagnome2 06-17-06, 03:09 PM	When Stinkagnome gets to the healers he asks them how badly the mayor is hurt.
DmofAlterak 06-17-06, 03:26 PM	techhunter this game is already in progress but you are allowed to join in at any point including right now. To all players: Earlier I was just assuming that everyone's characters were all first level but it seems like the character levels may have some variance. I have two suggestions: Either everyone can agree on a level that your characters will be playing at Or you can just play your characters with levels and xp being more of a non consequential sort of thing and no xp being awarded. This is up to you guys. :) Back to the game: Stinkagnome makes the arguos journey to the healers with the cumbersome and badly injured mayor upon his back. When at long last he reaches the healers temple and starts to climb the steep stone steps he collapses under the weight and someone comes over and helps him into the building. When he looks around the mayor is gone and he is somewhere in the dark, A whole bunch of drow jump out at him from all sides with wicked swords drawn and then he wakes up from his dream and finds himself in the bright sunlight of the temple with a healer near his bed "You took a pretty good blow to the head there" the lady healer says "But your doing a lot better than the mayor. He has a serious concussion and you brought him over here not a moment to soon. Stinkagnome notices that the healer has long curly golden hair which sparkles in the sun and is smiling at him. :) Long belated xp rewards: These xp rewards encompass all of your characters actions thus far. Marco: 570 xp Astron the wizard: 600 xp Stinkagnome: 490 xp If you choose to still use the xp system I will try to award xp to characters on each post for the actions they have taken in their previous posts. Reasons for the xp awards as they are so far: Marco was role played really well and took the blow into the wall without argument. Stinkagnome rescued the mayor and basically did nice things Kronthor said some cool lines, role played, and bandaged the survivors of the dragons attacks (which was worth 200 xp). If I missed anything which you think is worthy of some extra xp you can just point it out to me. thanks! :) Techhunter's arrival into Illisinaria and the meeting of the other characters is up to you techhunter or I could make something up if you want. :)
techhunter 06-17-06, 08:48 PM	Amber Techhunter blurred (via Plane Shift) into the city square. Well....Lets see if the scout report is accurate and I'll find some tech good enough to bring home. Amber surveyed the scene. From the looks of things this part of whereever she was had been under attack. Eventually she came upon the wreckage of what might have been a either a cybernetic creature or a robot. Of course the mangeled remains made identification difficult. She noticed a man (Marco) building something near the wreckage and she approched. "Excuse me. Can you tell me what has happened here? "
Astron the Wizard 06-18-06, 01:09 PM	I'm a bit confused, DmofAlterak, I thought you abandoned the game and started it up again in some obscure yahoogroup thingy. :P YES! I've got 600 xp!! I didn't say that in game, by the way. After healing the citizens, I interrogate them, trying to find the reason the dragon attacked the village (or town or city). If I get the info I'm looking for, I give them the evil merchant's chest that I took.
PrGo 06-21-06, 03:52 AM	Marco drank a cup of coffe in a gulp. He turned and looked at Amber. He stood up immedieately. Well, ma'm, some kind of a monster attacked us and we crushed it. He said looking at the wreckage. He looked back to the psion and offered her a cup of coffe. It's not that good but will help you to refresh after a long night sleep.
techhunter 06-21-06, 09:48 AM	Marco drank a cup of coffe in a gulp. He turned and looked at Amber. He stood up immedieately. Well, ma'm, some kind of a monster attacked us and we crushed it.

There might be more where this came from.....No thanks. I had some this morning, but thank you anyway. I'm Amber Techhunter and your name is........
Snotagnome2 06-21-06, 05:17 PM	My guy asks the healer if the mayor will recover and if she needs anything to help him get better.
DmofAlterak 06-21-06, 05:34 PM	The healer shakes her brown hair and looks sadly at Stinkagnome "Sorry there's not much you can do but thank you for your kindness anyway. We're doing everything we can and hopefully he'll pull out of the coma but my guess is it won't be anytime soon. The healer escorts Stinkagnome out of the building after giving him a compress and bandage for his head. As Amber techhunter and Marco talk Kronthor while still in elf shape changed form asks the villagers for any information they have on why the dragon attacked and he learns the following: Most of the villagers are frightened and don't want to talk, the dragons name is Falgothalder the red and has lived in these parts for over five hundred years and has a large hoard, the dragons attack is a mysterie as he took nothing and only attacked the mayors town hall and no where else, and the location of the dragons lair is north east of town about sixteen miles. If anyone mentions the purple creature to the villagers they say that they are Nilbogs the nasty filthy weak monsters that the mayor wanted destroyed as an under cover mission. Some questions are: what is the connection if any between the nilbogs the mayor and the dragon?, why did the dragon attack?, what did the mayors obscure message mean if anything?, and did that smelly headron marker bouy have anything to do with anything? The wizard Aqran walks up to Kronthor and says in a cynical voice "Well you seem to be the only one around here doing anything so I might as well tell you: I know where the hidden lair of the Nilbogs is and I also know where the dragons lair is if you need a guide." If Kronthor gives the villagers the money than they are bewildered and happy and head off home thanking him many times. The ninja swaggers over to Marco and says "Give me some coffee and I'll take off one of those life debts that you owe me." The xp awards for your posts are as follows: Marco: 50xp (good role playing).Total xp: 620 Kronthor: 120xp (for looking for information etc.).Total xp: 720 Stinkagnome: 50xp (concern for the mayor).Total xp: 520 Amber techhunter: 100 (good role playing).Total xp: 100
DmofAlterak 06-21-06, 05:44 PM	While the boards were down I made a yahoo group titled Illisinaria where people there could play in the world of Illisinaria. That game is separate from this one but is set in the same campaign world. Just if anyone was wondering.
Snotagnome2 06-22-06, 04:51 PM	Stinkagnome thanks the healer and then returns to the others and asks who the new girl is.
techhunter 06-26-06, 02:16 PM	Stinkagnome thanks the healer and then returns to the others and asks who the new girl is. *notices Stinkagnome walking up* Oh Hello..Are you two friends? I'm Amber and what's your name?
Snotagnome2 06-29-06, 04:19 PM	"Hi and my name is Stinkagnome and I am sorta friends with him because I only just met him a bit a go."
PrGo 06-30-06, 04:20 PM	Marco shakes Amber's hand *I'm Marco of the Icewind Dale, glad to meet you, Amber* he looks into the distance, to the north. The barbarian begins to walk into that direction. After a few steps he turns his head to the others *I have some buisness to attend to in the north. We shall meet again in a few months* he says and walks away. Actually I have to go to summer vacations and I can't post from that island (i've got no comp, or even phone connection there) so this is the best thing i thought of. If this isn't good for the adventure, DmofAlterak, you can take control of Marco until i return. I shall be away for two months at most. Prgo bows and leaves the forum.
DmofAlterak 07-06-06, 04:31 PM	No problem PrGo. Have a great vacation! :) The mighty barbarian heads off into the north leaving those behind saddened that his presence has left them.....But in their hearts they are glad because they know that he will return. The ninja looks depressed and his shoulders droop "I suppose we'll never see him again. I guess those life debts he owed me were a tad too much for him. He's probably leaving the country....." I shall wait for Astron the wizard to post before continuing the adventure for now.
Snotagnome2 07-20-06, 04:27 PM	"Could you tell us where the cave and dragon is?" Snotagome says taking out a peice of paper and a quill and waits.
DmofAlterak 08-02-06, 05:32 PM	Since Astron the Wizard has not posted in some time I am now continuing the adventure..... The ninja turns to Stinkagnome and says "Howdy friend. What's yer name anyway? and I don't where the dragon cave is or which dragon your talking about but I assume it's the one that just attacked the village and that wizard guy said he knew where it was." Aqran rubs his beard thoughtfully and says "Yes I know the location of the dragons cave and will glady accompany you on your quest but be warned: a full grown red dragon is a very powerful beast and intelligent to boot so you must be cautious in this endevour lest if be the last you undertake." "Fear not ye all for we are well protected.....I know the dreaded monkey kick. Avast!" The ninja (whose name you do not yet know.) poses with one leg lifted from the ground and a strange facial expression in place.
Astron the Wizard 08-03-06, 09:13 AM	Sorry I hadn't posted. I was on vacation. I still am, actually, but now I have access to a computer. Yes! Still more experience then everyone! :mymy: Gulp. :surrender "A FULL GROWN RED DRAGON???!!! Are you insane?! I vote we go after the small, purple creatures first. What were they called? Nilgogs? Nilbogs? Yes, let's go after them. The ancient red wyrm will just have to wait." He stands around looking stunned, mumbling to himself something that might be interpeted as: Run, flee, hide...DEATH IS UPON US! Then he begins to wimper. Not weep, wimper. Weeping is for sissies. :P
Astron the Wizard 08-12-06, 02:57 PM	No... not again! This can't happen! I always manage to stop a thread cold! Someone post! Please, no other threads that I have replied to remain intact! Someone post! Please!
DmofAlterak 08-12-06, 06:23 PM	"AGGHHHH! Are you hinting that I might stop posting on the thread? What a horrible happenstance that would be! Fear not for I intend to post on this thread for now......But now that you mention it I am going on vacation on the 25th and am unsure whether I will be able to post during my holidays. Anyways..... The ninja frowns and half turns saying "What? Red Dragon? Count me in! Gad it's been a long time since I went to that Tavern.....I wonder if Rose still works there?....." "I believe he meant the Red Dragon Folgathalder which lives in the cave some miles North East." Aqran smiles wickedly first at Kronthor (who is still in Elf form i believe.) and then at the ninja. Seeming as if he's not paying full attention the ninja says "Huh?....Of course I want to go see the Red Dragon....Wait a sec...A real red Dragon?!....." Kronthor recieves another 120 xp for his actions.....(Awesome post by the way Astron! :D ). Snotagnomes character Stinkagnome recieves 50 xp for his posts and Techhunters Techhunter character Amber gains 30 xp (Would have been more but Snotagnome posted twice! :) :)
Astron the Wizard 08-14-06, 07:20 PM	I am still in elf form. :P
DmofAlterak 08-15-06, 02:58 PM	Yess......Did I ever mention that all elves spontaneously decompose when they are one half hour old? ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one..... :ghosted:
Astron the Wizard 08-16-06, 05:31 PM	Oh, come come now. Play fair.
techhunter 09-07-06, 09:24 AM	A red Dragon?! We would need some seroius fire power to deal with a creature like that. Maybe an ice ray, or cold grenades or something to that effect. As for the Nilbogs, we need a cleric or somethings that can damage them. Give some time I'll see what I can whip up.
Astron the Wizard 09-09-06, 11:32 AM	I think this thread is dying.:P
DmofAlterak 09-11-06, 02:37 PM	Okay elves don't spontaneously decompose....all of the time. This thread die? what a horribibbiblly thought:eek: . The ninja says "What in Illisinaria is a cold grenade?!! can I have one? After muttering to himself for a bit he says "Alllriiiighht as ranking leader of the group I say that we go after the Nilbogs cause they sound alot nicer than that ancient red dragon. No offense to you guys but I'd rather take my chances with weak little blighters than the most dangerous and evil dragon for a hundred miles. So. Who's with me?" Aqran shakes his head in a 'I can't believe I'm going to say this' way "Actually it seems that he has a good idea and I'm with him on this one though if everyone wants to go see that dragon I'm not opposed to that-" "But I'am unless yer talkin about the Red Dragon inn." "-either so let us move out with all do speed before the village suffers another attack. Personnally I am very interested in knowing why these monsters are attacking in the first place and why the dragon was so selective in it's attacks." The ninja manages to poke both of your characters in the ribs at the same time and says in a rather loud conspiratorial voice "Well nevermind that but I here that the dragon has a whole ocean worth of treasure. He. He. hee heh heh he he." "I thought you didn't want to go after the dragon?" Aqran shakes his head incredulously. "Well of course not ME personally but if you guys manage to finish him off then I'll help take some of that treasure off of your hands as you don't seem all that interested in it." The ninja turns to Amber and Kronthor "So are you guys coming or are you chickens? Even if your chickens you can come anyway..." I got back from vacation a couple of days ago. The updates look pretty cool.:D
Astron the Wizard 09-11-06, 04:06 PM	(snorts) Leading member of the group my butt. I was the one who suggested we gob after the nilbogs, and I'm not changing my mind. Here's my reasoning: :teach: Nilbogs, if I am correct, have dragon heritage within them, and there for (for reasons I will not explain),they should, in theory, have some dragon traits. We know that this dragon may be of great power, but, on contrast, we make the assumtion that it has large amounts of treasure. However, we know the nilbogs are weak, but do not know the amount of treasure they have acumulated. From the intellegiance that we have gathered, I have made my deduction. The nilbogs have been raiding the villages for years, perhaps hundreds of years-and it is a good assummtion that because of this, It has lots of treasure. The dragon, however, Has just come here recently, otherwise we would have heard reports from the nearby villages. In conclusion, we must assume that this is one of its very first raids and doesn't have alot of treasure (unless, of course it migrated here, and accumulated money somewhere else, and it brought it here, but let me leave you with one last parting word...it isn't very easy to carry handfuls of gold coins with talons of gargantuan size... make sense?:P let's hope so. To the nilbogs! EDIT: I'm probably being paranoid, so I'll just stop being paranoid.
DmofAlterak 09-11-06, 04:59 PM	Okay, at last it is settled! I'll hand out some xp in an upcoming post. The ninja's mouth drops in awe "Your a genius man!":) Aqran shakes his head "He's half talking baloney and half sense." "Like I said" the ninja says with awe in his voice:eek: "He's a genius. Baloney rules!" "Well whoever the leader is" Aqran mutters "I believe I am the only one who knows where the lair of the Nilbogs is and so I'll lead both of you leaders to the location.":king: After only one days uneventful travel your Kronthor, Aqran, the ninja (who still no one knows the name of), and Amber of the Techhunters find themselves ont eh crest of a hill in the plains and can see from where they stand a huge section of land known as Barlo's Blackness to the villagers which seems just to be that: a swirling mas of blackness blanketing the area but reaching only about one hundred feet into the air so as it make it like a huge disk upon the land. It is a solid darkness and is not like cloud in consistency but in movement. Turning on his heel the ninja says "Okay we tried are hardest....and had our bums whopped, now lets get out of here before something evil decides to vaporize us.":noway: Aqran smiles and points just to the right of the ominous section of land known as Barlo's Blackness "Not there kung fu head. there." he points one gnarled old finger down at an old cottage looking to be an abandoned woodsmens cabin and then starts down the hill using his staff as support. "What do you mean....There?! what are you on about.:confused: Am I dreaming or did the old guy just crack up?:rofl: " the ninja asks Kronthor incredulously.
Astron the Wizard 09-12-06, 03:53 PM	I'm...I'm not sure...:confused: Alright now, forward! I follow the wizard, shrugging. (Is his name Aquan, or Agwan?)
DmofAlterak 09-12-06, 05:16 PM	I'm...I'm not sure...:confused: Alright now, forward! I follow the wizard, shrugging. (Is his name Aquan, or Agwan?) Huh? the ninja says "His name is Tooochdeway the mighty serpent controller of howling wind plains. Didn't you know?" Aqran is out of earshot of this and then the ninja follows him down the hill and soon you all come to the old house which looked to be long ago occupied by woodsmen. There is a simple door and an old half broken window in the front of the house. It is simply built out of red wood logs. Off to the west the darkness swirls blackly... "Here we are then" Aqran says. "This may seem like a very silly question: but aren't we standing in front of an old log cabin?" The ninja makes a genuinely confused face:. confused: Smirking evilly :evillaugh Aqran says "That's what it may appear as...but all is not what it seems when dealing with magic..." Missing Aqran's point the ninja says "Are you saying your untrustworthy or somthing??" Aqran shakes his head "Watch and behold the might of magic..." Aqran flings open the door to the cottage! The name of the wizard which your characters are journeying with and the one who just opened the door without waiting to see if you thought it was a good idea or not is Aqran. Dose Kronthor at that very moment look over his shoulder?
DmofAlterak 09-12-06, 05:29 PM	The xp awards for your posts are as follows: Marco: 0xp (not present).Total xp: 620 Kronthor: 170xp (for posting a ton and also making the decision to go after the Nilbogs).Total xp: 890 Stinkagnome: 50xp (not present).Total xp: 570 Amber techhunter: 50 xp (planning for an encounter with the dragon and roleplaying).Total xp: 180
DmofAlterak 09-12-06, 05:30 PM	Oops replicate post.
Astron the Wizard 09-13-06, 03:19 PM	Yes! XP!!!!!! I do in fact, happen to look over his shoulder if it means looking at what's inside the cottage, but if you meant "do I look over my shoulder," The point is, is that I try to see what's inside the cottage.:P
techhunter 09-14-06, 02:29 PM	The ninja says "What in Illisinaria is a cold grenade?!! can I have one? A cold grenade, is a grenade that produces via chemical reaction reduces tempeture of a object or a group of objects. And no you can not have one. Only trained personel can use them. As for the Nilbogs we need weapons that generate positive energy, enough to effect them since we don't have a cleric among our number. "gotta think....what would work?"
techhunter 09-14-06, 02:40 PM	Interesting landscape... Amber mutters to herself She notices the cottage and follows the boys to it. WAIT!!!!!! Amber shouts as Aqran opens the door. Amber readies her weapons as Aqran opens the door. She activates a scanner in helmet and scans the area in front of Aqran.
DmofAlterak 09-14-06, 03:04 PM	Yes! XP!!!!!! I do in fact, happen to look over his shoulder if it means looking at what's inside the cottage, but if you meant "do I look over my shoulder," The point is, is that I try to see what's inside the cottage.:P Okay, Then you don't happen to see all of those things which were following you, I am not going to tell you what they are, and also I am going to let them sneak up on you. And no you cannot now suddenly decide to glance backwards. he he he.
DmofAlterak 09-14-06, 03:07 PM	A cold grenade, is a grenade that produces via chemical reaction reduces tempeture of a object or a group of objects. And no you can not have one. Only trained personel can use them. As for the Nilbogs we need weapons that generate positive energy, enough to effect them since we don't have a cleric among our number. "gotta think....what would work?" The ninja frowned "Trained personnel? I don't know what personnel means! Unless it means people. and also I figure that Nilbogs are not undead because the one we or should I say Marco fought seemed alive enough to me."
DmofAlterak 09-14-06, 03:18 PM	Interesting landscape... Amber mutters to herself She notices the cottage and follows the boys to it. WAIT!!!!!! Amber shouts as Aqran opens the door. Amber readies her weapons as Aqran opens the door. She activates a scanner in helmet and scans the area in front of Aqran. Even though you shouted before he reached the door Aqran still flings it open and out from it's depths there comes a huge flash of blinding white light which slowly disipates. The late that still lingers in your eyes disipates after the actual light has already all but left and Aqran who had shielded his eyes says to Amber over his shoulder "Not to worry Amber the Nilbogs are not directly past this sub portal...Deeper within is where they lie." With that the wizard steps through the door and directly into a muddy subterrainein passage with brown lichens on the rough walls and a downward slope to the floor which is quite level compared to the jutting walls. The ninja turns to you both and says "We're not going to let a wizard make scaredy cats of us are we!" As he was then facing the way you had come he sees a whole bunch of figures on the hill you just crested but passes them off as trees or something. Then he runs into the darkness after the wizard. thunk! "Watch where your going man!" "You know somebody really ought to light a torch or something. Is that you Aqran?" "No! It's my rear end. Now let go! before I do something nasty to you." After the daze has left Amber she reveiws the scans in her helm and finds that an unknown low level electrical surge just occured in the door way and now she's getting no readings other than everyone elses vitals. It appears that Aqran was right about there being no Nilbogs in the near vicinity of the tunnel.
Astron the Wizard 09-14-06, 04:33 PM	I enter the cottage.:P
techhunter 09-15-06, 08:49 AM	She chuckles as she watches on infra red the antics of the ninja and Aqran. "Oh spoo. Well at least we're not getting any welcoming commitee." Amber pulls out a chem lantern and lights it. "Here boys here's a light. Mumbles Takes a woman... and follows behind Aqran and the ninja scanning ahead.
Snotagnome2 09-15-06, 03:42 PM	Stinkagnome senses danger behind him and runs at full speed into the tunnel yelling a battle cry and screaming out of fear too.
DmofAlterak 09-15-06, 03:48 PM	Unexpectedly the Warrior Stinkagnome turns up and runs into the tunnels inadvertently barreling into the ninja who in turn crashes into Aqran. The ninja leaps up and draws his curved ninja sword "Whatever manner of foul beast ye are...Hey is that you Stinkagnome?!" Aqran also turns and says Be quiet fool!uhhh. We're in the tunnels of Galinader which are filled with Nilbogs and worse so you had better close your mouth if you care to keep it or the rest of yourself for that matter." Stinkagnome and Kronthor both know about the legends of the tunnels of Galinader in part.....I am out of time so: to be continued.....
PrGo 09-15-06, 05:18 PM	Guess who's back??? :D Yeah, that's right, I'm back from the vacations and I'm ready to kick some-- DmofAlterak? What is the group fighting currently? :P
Astron the Wizard 09-15-06, 05:36 PM	Well, ProGo, it's only four pages long, why don't you read it? DmofAlterak:I wait quietly for Aqran to continue, casting a withered (or is it withering?) glance at stinkagnome, and nodding politely to Progo.:P
PrGo 09-18-06, 09:01 AM	Well... I don't have much time allowed on the net :P Why don't you just tell me where my character appears again :)
Astron the Wizard 09-18-06, 03:14 PM	Well, I suppose that's mostly the GM's job, but really we've decided that teconohunter will come with us, and now we're at some kind of magic cottage that is the enetrance of the nilbog's lair, following the wizard Aqan while something is following us that the ninja knows about, but no-one else knows about, because we didn't look backwards at the right time, and now we're not allowed to make any more spot checks.
DmofAlterak 09-18-06, 06:49 PM	Guess who's back??? :D Yeah, that's right, I'm back from the vacations and I'm ready to kick some-- DmofAlterak? What is the group fighting currently? :P The group is currently within the lair of the Nilbogs....PrGo's back!! PrGo's back!! Lot's of fanfare and trumpeting:D :D
DmofAlterak 09-18-06, 07:05 PM	Well, I suppose that's mostly the GM's job, but really we've decided that teconohunter will come with us, and now we're at some kind of magic cottage that is the enetrance of the nilbog's lair, following the wizard Aqan while something is following us that the ninja knows about, but no-one else knows about, because we didn't look backwards at the right time, and now we're not allowed to make any more spot checks. Now being continued and may I also note that Astron's statement is accurate except that the ninja dose not know what's behind you because even though he saw them he passed them off as trees :) and also may I add that Marco dose not see the creatures on the hill either. :) Marco makes his way stealthily around Barlo's blackness and evades the gazes of the creatures on the hill but he's being so stealthy that he dosn't see them and makes it too the open door of the cottage where some gaurds led by that evil looking merchant politely told him was where he could find the others as they were heading out that way themselves....something about a stolen box with a powerful magic item that looked like a trinket in it; anyway he see's that the door to the cottage is open and appears to lead directly into the tunnels of Galinader which he has heard some legends of.... As cautiously enters the moss covered and mottle walled dark interior of the passage his accutely aware ears are beset by horrible sounds from within the cave not 100 yards ahead of him: "Hey Stinkagnome!!" :ayyyy!: "Stinkawhat!?" :mad: "Stinkagnome!" :w00t: "Be destroyed foul creature of the night...." :evillaugh "No no no! he's a friend don't shoot the fireball at him!" :eek: "A friend? Freind of whom?" :confused: "Me." :D "Right then...Take this you evil monster!!" :fight!: Thakk! The first voice was of the ninja and the second was of the Wizard Aqran whom you had met earlier. The legends of the tunnels of Galinader said that near the village was where the secret entrance lay and only when an elf who was not an elf, a Stinky warrior who was not stinky and one who was not of this world had entered the tunnels would the great treasurie be found. :king: The tales said that the hoard behind the golden door higher than a man rivaled that of even the mighty wyrms that populate Illisinaria. Many had searched for the caves but the entrance could not be found...or else those who did never revealed it's location to that drunk hairy guy in the seven swords inn who you got to tell you this by promising him one more black wood ail. :pint:
DmofAlterak 09-19-06, 03:51 PM	Assuming that all of your characters proceed into the tunnels.... Marco catches a whiff of something that smells like torch smoke before he heads into the tunnels and glances over his shoulder but see's nothing. Aqran who seems to know his way about the tunnels fairly well leads everyone on and everyone stays more or less in a group around Amber's glow rod so noone get's lost in the darkness. Soon you fear that you have lost track of the winding tunnels and can only trust that your wizard knows the way. After a time that seems much longer than it actually was up ahead you can dimly percieve a huge golden door stretching up high to nearly the chambers roof and carved in deep curves of intricate patterns are on it's surface. Before you can react Amber's scanners pick up two things at roughly the same time: 15 life signs behind you and about two hundred just ahead and behind the rock walls; apparently there are two passages to the right and left hidden from your current angle and near the golden door fabled in legend ahead of you and said to hold a treasurie that rivals that of dragons......
techhunter 09-20-06, 07:40 AM	15 life signs behind you and about two hundred just ahead and behind the rock walls; apparently there are two passages to the right and left hidden from your current angle and near the golden door fabled in legend ahead of you and said to hold a treasurie that rivals that of dragons...... Oh Spoo....Guys we've got company coming in behind us and a very large, two hundred strong welcoming party ahead of us. Amber prepares some anti-personel grenades and readies her weapons.
DmofAlterak 09-20-06, 04:21 PM	What can I say? The game is afoot! Also Hip hip hooray! Snotagnome returns! More fanfare and trumpeting.:D :D
DmofAlterak 09-20-06, 04:28 PM	I have decided that I will now award xp at the end of adventures because A. it will save on time and not interrupt the game and B. you guys will be tenth level in no time if I keep giving you tons of xp. Amber also gets bonus xp for all of the roleplaying and the great humorous bits too :) Good job!
techhunter 09-21-06, 10:07 AM	Amber sets up 2 pairs of anti-personel grenades linked by a hidden trip wire behind the party for the group coming up behind them. Ok that should take care of the welcoming committy. and if they do find the wire the grenades would go off anyways. Amber mumbles to herself, knowing full well that the boys would be too busy goofing around to hear her anyway. We need more women in this party.....
DmofAlterak 09-21-06, 05:48 PM	The ninja watches as Amber sets up the anti personal grenades but after she finishes Aqran distracts her by asking "what are you doing? the treasure is but feet away why are you stopping?" Then she notices at about the same time that Aqran dose that the ninja is walking toward the trip wire approaching the grenades and saying to himself "I wonder what those things are?" For a moment of stunned frozen silence Aqran and Amber exchange looks and then Aqran says "From the look on your face I am surmising that whatever those are they don't mix well with Ninjas...."
techhunter 09-22-06, 07:16 AM	The ninja watches as Amber sets up the anti personal grenades but after she finishes Aqran distracts her by asking "what are you doing? the treasure is but feet away why are you stopping?"

For a moment of stunned frozen silence Aqran and Amber exchange looks and then Aqran says "From the look on your face I am surmising that whatever those are they don't mix well with Ninjas...." No they don't. Amber stops the ninja before he sets off the anti personel trap. "I wouldn't touch that if I were you. Those "party favors" are for the guests that coming up behind us. So don't touch unless you like having thousands of sharp metal objects going through you." Only a man would.....
DmofAlterak 09-25-06, 05:38 PM	Amber lunges and catches the ninjas hand just in time...Meanwhile Aqran starts to edge towards the golden door with an evil look in his eyes (he is walking backwards). The ninja mumbles something like "Thousands of sharp metal things????" and then his attention too is drawn to Aqran "I may be crazy but I think Amber said there were enemys up that way Aqran." Aqran smiles in a way that you find sinisterly unpleasant.
PrGo 09-27-06, 04:18 PM	Wait, I was following them? Ok, I guess i see what's happening, right?
DmofAlterak 09-27-06, 05:44 PM	Yes. Aqran continues to back up until he is in plain view of the side passages and then with a sinisterly evil smile he says "Too bad my former friends, surrender and I may spare your lives, I doubt that you will though...Get them!!" From either side and behind him a hoard of monsters with glowing red eyes streams, there must be hundreds of them and they all hold various weapons in clawed hands, screeching war cries they rush at your characters and even the mighty Marco gets some doubts about wheter he can handle them...Aqran meanwhile starts laughing his head of maniacally from the safety of behind a wall. Drawing his sword the ninja yells a battle cry and proceeds to slice his sword crazily throgh the air around himself until he's all but cut off his clothes..."Hey guys...Uh give me some privacy willya?" He then attempts to cover his bare rear end. Because I will be very busy this year and am also running three different campaigns at the same time I am afraid I will have to limit my posting to once a week starting next week and will post on Thursdays if possible thus you will know when to expect a post and won't have to continually check the boards. Thanks for playing Everyone!
Astron the Wizard 09-28-06, 03:40 PM	Sorry for not replying sooner. I kill the wizard. Maybe he's the monsters' power source.
techhunter 09-29-06, 07:29 AM	first off Amber pulls out parts and claps her hands and in a flash (ala FMA) first a pair robotic fighters who go and help the ninja and PrGo and then a laser machine gun with grenade launcher is made. With it she guns down the Nilbogs. With Nilbogs taken care of she raises her psychic defences and hits the wizard with Psychic Crush turning his mind to oatmeal. She also lobs a few cold grenades for good measure
PrGo 10-02-06, 01:41 PM	Marco screams angrily as Rimefire bursts in flames. He swings the axe furiously, cutting deep wounds in many enemies in a swing. He continues to attack at their lines trying to kill them and hold them away from himself. Thanks to his long arms, he is succesful at that... for now...
DmofAlterak 10-03-06, 01:53 PM	The lazer machine gun is a very effective weapon against the evil Nilbogs but before their lines are totally decimated by it Amber feels herself go numb with cold and collapses. standing framed against the golden door is Aqran and he laughs evilly "Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha" while he dose this Kronthor gets his chance to attempt to sneak up to him and starts wending his way amongst the frenzied Nilbogs in a ferocious melee with Marco Amber can see around her but is unable to do anything and while her friends are distracted she hears the things coming up from behind. The ninja turns from the battle mouth agape to stare at the newcomers. "uh Amber...I don't think that wire thing was such a great idea....." A Nilbog pokes him with a spear and he turns back spittle flying into his enemies face "What in all of Illisinaria did you do that for?" he then uses his sword like a club and knocks the creature senseless "I am the only one who is allowed to make ineffective attacks!!" Meanwhile he has failed to warn his non frozen companions about the impending arrival of the creatures behind and also has returned to the fighting distracted and forgets about it. It's not thursday but it's before it so hope that's okay with you guys.:)
Astron the Wizard 10-10-06, 08:50 PM	I continue doing what I just said I was doing.
PrGo 10-11-06, 03:11 AM	Marco tries to protect now lying Amber by attacking those who close in on her.
techhunter 10-12-06, 09:16 AM	The nilbogs coming up from behind would trip the wires and get shreaded by the anti-personel mines. Plus I have two robots battling the nilbogs upon seeing me collaspe they guard me killing off any nilbog that dared to get close. Speaking of my collaspe, my battlesuits internal medikit would've activated fixing whatever condition I was in. I raise my psychic defences and use Psychic crush on Aqran.
DmofAlterak 10-12-06, 03:32 PM	Marco hacks away at anything that comes near Amber who is frozen still in a blue light cast by Aqran and soon the Nilbogs learn that Marco is not someone who should be charged heedlessly and start shooting cross bow bolts at him. Kronthor is feet away from the unsuspecting Aqran when one of the Nilbogs spots him and shrieks running towards him, the nilbog is easy prey to Kronthors (uhhh dagger?) but Aqran dose not notice then the ninja yells out at Kronthor "Whataryer sneaking up on that wizard fer Kronthor!!??" and Aqran looks over and sees Kronthor. As the ninja is pushed backwards against an onslaught of Nilbogs as they see him as an easy target Aqran looks down on Kronthor with evil in his eyes and smile "Well well well if it isn't the elf who is not an elf...yes I know all about the treasure and things...." Suddenly his eyes mist over as a psychic crush enters his mind from Amber and Kronthor leaps forward to take advantage of his opponents lack in concentration. But before he can the Wizard returns to normal and smiles again "Oh I don't think so Kronthor. gunto swap!" With a sharp zapping noise Kronthor is turned into a orange frog (and he finds that he cannot change his form) then Aqran starts laughing his head off. and pointing at Kronthor as if it was a great joke. Though ambers body is frozen her mind is not and she unleashes a powerful psychic crush on Aqran...He seems to fight it for a second and she wonders if it has melted his mind but then he returns suddenly to normal and she hears loudly and clearly thoughts of his voice in her mind "Thought me so weak as to fall prey to that Amber? Consider this a lesson that the minds of wizards are not to be meddled in..." and then a confusing torrent of arcane symbols and wierd images assault her mind making her feel like crying out in pain though she is unable to do it...If noone can stop Aqran soon Amber might suffer more serious consequences than a headache from the malestrom of mad arcane convulitions... Some torches make themselves present behind your characters and by the flickering light they can see that what approaches from behind is not Nilbogs but a group of the villagers and gaurds from the town...They are heading towards the trip wire....But as if a light was turned on in his head the ninja makes a dash for the wire and yells out to the villagers "THERE IS A TRIP WIRE HOOKED ONTO SOME T-10 ANTIPERSONAL GRENADES, DONT SPRING IT!!" "Huh?" the hawk like evil looking merchant who is leading them followed by the gaurd captain Boroc says. "TRIP WIRE-BAD" the ninja yells back before the nilbogs cut him down from behind and he falls.
Snotagnome2 10-12-06, 03:42 PM	He tears off his badge that stops him from getting wizards and then my guy yells crazily and with revenge his dexterity gose to a million and other scores and within six seconds he runs up and grabs up the lazer machine gun and shoots five hundred blasts at the wizard and yells "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" and if the wizard some how stops it or dodges it he runs up crazily and crushes the wall so it falls on him and if he dodges that then he jumps on top of him and yells "WA WA WA WA WA WA WA!" and he is smushed fifty feet down into the ground.:)
PrGo 10-13-06, 09:43 AM	Marco notices the wizard now, and he realizes that he's responsible for Amber's current condition. He charges trough the enemy hordes, in order to break trough and attack the wizard. (he stops defending Amber cuz her robot-thingies are doing that)
Astron the Wizard 10-18-06, 03:39 PM	Umm...I suppose I hop on the wizard and generaly try to interupt his concentration on his spells. ribbit, bump into him,etc. :P (I also try to find out if I can still speak.):P
DmofAlterak 10-18-06, 05:32 PM	Umm...I suppose I hop on the wizard and generaly try to interupt his concentration on his spells. ribbit, bump into him,etc. :P (I also try to find out if I can still speak.):P I'll try to post again tomorrow in case Techhunter posts then. Well of course. Naturally frogs vocal cords are made to ribbit and croak rather than vocalize so he kinda sounds frogish when he says things.;) :pile: The villagers wade into the fight and the hawk face merchant and Marco battle their way forward to where the wizard stands.....or rather where he stood before Stinkagnome barraged him with lazer blasts. He is now wounded and the villagers and gaurds are routing the remaining Nilbogs who could have still presented a good fight but flee when Aqran says "Enough! Please! spare my life...I'll turn Kronthor back into himself if you let me go free!" He hovels down and begs for his life. Turning back in a lull in the fighting Marco sees that Amber is no longer looking pained and that she has unfrozen and slumped to the ground. Boroc kicks a Nilbog out of the way and says "Whose the frog?"
PrGo 10-19-06, 08:27 AM	Marco grabs the wizard by the collar with his left hand, while still holding Rimefire in the other one. *Do it, NOW!!*
techhunter 10-19-06, 09:41 AM	Oh no we're not buying that nonsence villain. Amber recovers and uses psychic crush on the wizard. plus pumping a cold mini grenade (enough to freeze a human sized target) at the wizard.
DmofAlterak 10-19-06, 05:30 PM	Chicken? (ie I made a duplicate post withought all of the info in it). :)
DmofAlterak 10-19-06, 05:36 PM	First off.... The villagers wade into the fight and the hawk face merchant and Marco battle their way forward to where the wizard stands.....or rather where he stood before Stinkagnome barraged him with lazer blasts. He is now wounded and the villagers and gaurds are routing the remaining Nilbogs... Well this is patent baloney this is what happens... Grabbing up the lazer machine gun Stinkagnome blasts five hundred shots at Aqran but he dodges them all "Hah! fool, I am a master at Quiditch! then Stinkagnome shoots the roof alot "Huh?" Aqran says and then the roof falls on his head in a big block and breaks around him "Hah! takes more than that to stop the mighty Aqran...." Then Stinkagnome runs up and yells "Wa Wa Wa Wa Wa etc." and smushes him into the ground where he growns "Ughhh....Well now I'm not feeling so great." And the story continues as I earlier posted from before: The psychic crush melts Aqrans mind to oatmeal apparently and he cries out gaily "I'm Sally and a Grandfather! Then she throughs the cold grenade even as he speaks (it could be a trick right?) but unfortunately her aim is a little off and the grenade hits Marco Turning him into a frosty the snow man look alike with alot more ice. Everyone freezes in silence. Boroc is the first to break the ice "Blimey, Someone bring this penguin an Ice Cap and make it Glacier fast!" RimFire gose "pshhhhsffff.." and putters out. Marco turns; his eyebrows sporting icicles of considerable length and his face more blue than is normal but covered in white ice.....
PrGo 10-20-06, 01:16 PM	Almost completley frozen, Marco turns to Amber, a dissapointed look in his eyes. *After all I've done for you?* Then he takes his axe and tries to warm up on its flames.
techhunter 10-23-06, 04:19 PM	Almost completley frozen, Marco turns to Amber, a dissapointed look in his eyes. *After all I've done for you?* Then he takes his axe and tries to warm up on its flames. Oops! sorry about that. Amber applies a medipack on Marco. There that should fix you up. Ignites her lightsaber, beheads the wizard and opens the golden doors.
Astron the Wizard 10-25-06, 05:54 PM	What's in them? By the way, I want to cry out, "medic! Help me! Help me! I'm dieing! I then flop over, and give out a small "ribbit".
DmofAlterak 10-26-06, 03:15 PM	The wizards last words are: Sally...I am you Father... One of the gaurds runs up with an Ice cap for Marco and hands it too him panting. Boroc gives him an Icy stare "I said make it Icy fast Gaurdsman!" "NO! you said Glacier fast and Glaciers move slow so there." "..." Boroc Frowns at him "Nevermind give it too the man will you...." I already did cap'n "Well whateyer standin around for then? Get BACk IN LInE!" Amber throws wide the golden doors as one of the female gaurdsmen leans over Kronthor and says "Awwwww...lookit the cute froggy..." switches voice to loud yell and turns her face to Boroc "CAN I KEEP HIM CAPTAIN??!!" "NO!" She leans down and Kronthor smells perfume which starts to gag him then she secretively picks him up and deposits him in her bra...he he he he he he he:P As the golden doors swing forward Amber and Marco see a dazzling light shoot out toward them and then as their eyes adjust they see a large room nearly floor to cieling piled with all manner of riches... Thousands and thousands of gold coins, Silver jewlery, Gem stones of all sizes and descriptions some diamonds large enough to cause a queen to look at the wearer with envy (provided of course the queen was envious of people with larger diamonds than her), potions by the cartload, magical weapons, dwarven armors, staves and wands curling with arcane runes, books which hint at valuable knowledge, garb and glitz to please jack sparrow and such like, At the center of all this wealth is a huge golden pillar atop which is a pan with a flame burning atop it in golden yellow light. it is this which causes the bright illumination and had either Marco who lived in the north or Amber from another world know what it was then who knows what they would have done? Boroc runs over and starts growling "What do ya think yer...." he loses his voice and stares at the treasure. The gaurds come up and see the treasure. After staring with mouths agape they run in and start stuffing themselves full of gold and rich jewlery. Soon they look like badly dressed but very rich noblemen and noblewomen. The Gaurdswoman whom has Kronthor in her undergarments says with awe to Marco, Amber, and Boroc "Thats the fabled light of Galsnor...if my mother knew that I had even seen such a thing...."
DmofAlterak 11-02-06, 03:24 PM	Just Checking in because it's Thursday. Is everyone still interested in playing? Dose everyone know that I am posting on Thursdays if possible? Thanks, DmofAlterak.
Astron the Wizard 11-02-06, 03:38 PM	Ah...yes. I'm in, I mean, I'm still in. I suppose that I want to escape from the, uh... lady guard, and go up to this so called "light of watchamacallit" and say Okay people, move along. This is adventurer business, nothin to see here. We adventurers get all the loot.:P Now that the wizard's dead, I try to change shape into a dwarf, with a braided beard.
techhunter 11-03-06, 07:33 AM	Now this more like it.. :) Amber collects some gems and jewerly, looks for anything that might be technological (even tech manuals) she also does a analysis on the light of Galsnor.
PrGo 11-06-06, 03:13 AM	Marco stares at the richies with awe but he soon wakes from the trance and runs in, looking for some good armor and magical equipment that could aid him in combat. *I'd like to get a +5 Mithral Full Plate of Energy Resistance 20 but anything would do good*
Astron the Wizard 11-08-06, 07:45 PM	ooh... Marco's getting a little greedy there, isn't he? hmm?
DmofAlterak 11-09-06, 07:23 PM	Though he can't say for sure Marco finds what looks to be some very nice armor and when he starts to put it on he finds that it is incredibly light but very strong. The finest armor he has ever seen. He also finds some nice loot such as a ruby as big as his eye and some exquisitely crafted gold and silver necklaces. (Dose Kronthor say anything as a frog?) he tries to turn into the dwarf because the wizard is dead but finds that the magic still binds him as a frog. The lady gaurd pats her new frog and looks around some more "Woooooo..." Amber finds some rather interesting tomes that seem to have technological information on some sort of alein device but it is written in another language and would take some decoding work. She walks over to the almost blinding light of Galsnor and runs some scans on it. It seems to be giving off and retaining a great amount of energy comparable to that of a large Fusion reactor but generated in an unknown way. She's glad to find it isn't radioactive though. She looks briefly up from her display and marvels at the crafting of the odd device. It is seemingly running on nothing at all and giving out massive amounts of energy. It is also a work of art reminding her of anceint monuments from before the wars on her planet. "Amazing" Boroc says and eyes wide walks slowy towards the light of Galsnor. Perhaps you are wondering why I have not given out the end of the adventure xp yet? or maybe not... The scanners are picking something else up...Very faint but huge. It appears to be a space craft above your location in the air and approaching fast. It isn't giving off normal energy readings though.
techhunter 11-13-06, 08:29 AM	(ooc: woot! new page and first post :) ) Amber is impressed with the light and wonders who made such a device. Her thoughts on the light are interupted when she gets a signal from the sat link. "Heads up guys!!! Looks like we're about to have some company!"
DmofAlterak 11-16-06, 12:48 PM	The sat link shows the incoming vessel or aircraft approaching rapidly from the north west and then coming in for a collision with the ground just above you... Booomm! the cieling shakes and rocks and dirt fall from it ominously. Boroc looks up "Dang. What in all of Illisinaria is that!?" The lady gaurd who still (presumably) clutches Kronthor the frog says "Woooooo" and then looks for some diamonds to cram into her pockets. The other gaurds already overburdened with loot start madly trying to grab the most valuable treasure and then head for the exit as another earth shattering ram causes the cieling to quiver and more rock and dirt to fall narrowly missing the light of Galsnor. Boroc murmurs "It was said that he or she who would touch the light in this century would have a great power bestowed to him or herself but also a great burden...Yelinior 2378..." As suddenly as the aerial assault came he comes. Except nothing detected him. The dark form wobbles from behind and through the golden doors into the chamber and the light cast brightly fromt he light of Galsnor illuminates his face and the strange expression on it. It is not the look of a normal human. In his hand he holds loosely a slightly curved sword and from his lips come the inhuman sound of a scream "UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUuieeee! Face the Deadly.... I was wondering what your oppinions on me increasing my posts to twice a week on thursdays and tuesdays would be? Thanks.:)
Astron the Wizard 11-16-06, 04:00 PM	Incorrect. Look at my post, before "marco gets greedy". That is what I do.
techhunter 11-17-06, 02:25 PM	I touch the light of Galsnor before combat insues.
Astron the Wizard 11-17-06, 02:51 PM	Unfair! You just posted quicker, that's all. As soon as the guard captain speaks, I touch the light. (and say Walla Walla, the light is mine!:P ) Edit:I think posting on tuesdays too would greatly increase the flow of this thread, although that would only give us Wednesday to reply. Monday would be better, or Sunday. However, posting twice a week is strongly encouraged.:P
DmofAlterak 11-21-06, 05:34 PM	Incorrect. Look at my post, before "marco gets greedy". That is what I do. Sorry, Edit is as follows: Everyone pauses and looks at the frog who has spoken. Boroc raises a thick black eyebrow "Will wonders never cease?" The lady guard runs up and tries to snatch up Kronthor who hops away toward the light Where Amber is "He's mine! Just dosn't know what he's saying, bad head cold!" Before the figure can continue it's dialogue Kronthor jumps into the fire and Amber reaches out a hand and at the same moment touches a wisp of the exceedingly bright flame. For the briefness of a split second nothing seems to happen. The shattering force striking the earth above seems to slow to almost a crawl so that you can feel each singular vibration as a pulse in the air and the ground. Shars of rock and bits of dirt are frozen in the air above like stars. The flames of the light appear not to move as if they were as solid as rock. Then in the next instant there is a brief but bright flash of light as if the light was flashed suddenly at your wide open eyes all of the same hue in color, a white. You cannot tell where you are. Or where your mind thinks you are. A convulted mixture of ancient and alien thoughts assault both of your minds and then as suddenly as they came cease. All is calm, No sound enters your ears, You cannot make any sound, You don't know if there is even air. There are only three things: Amber, the pervasion of white everywhere; distance dose not seem to matter to it, and Kronthor. You both cannot tell if time exists here and distance seems irrelevent. You can see and not see eachother and it is as if you are both everywhere both appart and part of eachother and the white light that suffuses everything...Yet there is something in the light, You are not part of eachother so much that you can sense eachothers beings fully, You know intrinsically that you are both appart like the oceans are from the land. Unlike the Ocean and the shore though you feel an oppostion towards eachother. Only one can prevail and the other must be defeated. This feeling seems to come from the light itself. It is not an evil compulsion where one must destroy the other but rather a test. Only one can win. A contest. So that one can win the other must lose. Only one can hold the Light...
DmofAlterak 11-21-06, 05:42 PM	Unfair! You just posted quicker, that's all. As soon as the guard captain speaks, I touch the light. (and say Walla Walla, the light is mine!:P ) Edit:I think posting on tuesdays too would greatly increase the flow of this thread, although that would only give us Wednesday to reply. Monday would be better, or Sunday. However, posting twice a week is strongly encouraged.:P How dose Monday and Thursday sound? Thanks for the input on the posting Astron!
DmofAlterak 11-23-06, 02:58 PM	Mondays and Thursdays it is then.:)
Astron the Wizard 12-04-06, 08:25 PM	um...hello?
DmofAlterak 12-08-06, 03:28 PM	Sorry I was busy yesterday and missed the posting time. :weep: Which brings up a change to the posting I will now be posting totally at random and not during the week after Christmas or during December 24-25. I had checked the thread on the posting days but no one had posted yet. When someone posts what their characters are up to I will make another post. :) Till then, all the best DmofAlterak.
Astron the Wizard 12-09-06, 07:52 AM	"the sea..the shore...a contest. Okay. A contest is. For the Light."
DmofAlterak 12-14-06, 03:02 PM	Dose Kronthor try to say that? Or is he using it as a focal point for winning over the light? Meanwhile Amber stares at Kronthor the frog and thinks :confused:
Astron the Wizard 12-17-06, 12:55 PM	it's not so much as me saying it than me thinking it-conciously.
PrGo 12-20-06, 05:49 AM	(OOC: sorry for not posting for a while, i completely forgot about this forum... :P) Marco grasps Rimefire with both hands and stands between the creature and the rest of the group. *Looks like I will have to dig our way out...* he says and charges the creature, in hope to kill it quickly and allow his companions to escape.
DmofAlterak 12-21-06, 12:37 PM	Well put Kronthor! Hey, no problem! Nice to have you back PrGo! Amber feels the power of the light shift and slowly but surely Kronthor's thoughts draw it to his presence, though it dose not actually move he can feel it coming to him and soon he will have the light.... Marco gets ready to charge the figure who has just appeared in the doorway as the roof continues to shudder as if it might collapse at any time and rocks and loose dirt fall amongst everyone. The figure says to Marco "Now see here mate! :) You still owe me your life!" The ninja raises his head "Nice place you got here what's with Amber collapsing and Kronthor glowing all yellow anyway?" As Marco turns to look and sees that it is true Boroc of the gaurds yells "C'mon everyone let's get outta here!" then him and the gaurds run through the golden doors towards the exit except for one who halts at the door as if shes forgotten a child in a burning house :eek: ...Or rather a family pet. The gaurdess runs back and scoops up the glowing frog Kronthor and then sprints for the exit after the receeding light of the torches held by those running ahead....
Astron the Wizard 12-22-06, 09:21 PM	Question...does the actions of the lady guard disrupt my contact with the Light?
DmofAlterak 12-24-06, 09:16 PM	Nope, Kronthor feels powerful, very powerful he also has the mad desire to ribbit..... I will resume posting sometime at the start of January. Until then have a merry Christmas and a happy new year! :)
DmofAlterak 01-03-07, 05:37 PM	I'm back! :)
Astron the Wizard 01-04-07, 05:12 PM	good! I wait until something happens
DmofAlterak 01-09-07, 10:58 PM	Sorry about taking so long, I've got a crazy schedule at the moment. Well Kronthor ribbits then feels unconciously that he may have regained the power to turn back into his original form...and maybe more. As no one else has posted I assume that their characters start to make a mad dash for the exit. With his intelligence score being higher than 2 (I assume) Kronthor realises that the tunnel and chamber are bound to collapse at any time. He could do something, grab treasure, run for the exit, or attempt some combination of the three or something else but he thinks it might not be a good idea to just stand around unless the power of the light of Galsnor is somehow protecting him from harm (though waiting for the roof to cave in might not be the safest way to test this theory). Kronthor ribbits again in a thougtful sort of way (at your leave of course).
Astron the Wizard 01-10-07, 04:17 PM	Okay:I grab some treasure and change form into something fast, like a dexteratious human, (unless I think there isn't time before the cave collapses-if there isn't,I scram) and I take the light- that is,if it's a substantial thing. If not I leave it behind, trying to mantain contact (not physical contact, of couse-mental contact) with the light as I do so. If I have to make a dash for the exit without any treasure or the light, I would like to quietly shout "Oh WallaWalla, what have I done?!" in an exasperated voice (that is, if exasperated is what I think it is.)
PrGo 01-11-07, 01:03 PM	Well, I don't know what to do so Marco just rushes out :)
DmofAlterak 01-12-07, 10:38 PM	Kronthor quickly turns into a human with incredible dexterity and with great ability loads himself down with all manner of jewels and very valuable looking gold stuff. Finally throwing a crown studded with diamonds atop his head he runs like a mad man for the exit in pursuit of his companions (Marco had long ago made his getaway with his magical gear). He hears a roar as the stone collapses behind him and for a few seconds begins to doubt that he will make it out as the rocks cave in behind him sounding like an advancing avalanche . *He found that he couldn't take the light itself because it is physically a large pillar like thing with a pan of flames (which also cannot be taken). He maintains what he feels is mental connection with it to the best of his ability.* With a last grunt (yes grunt not ribbit) he dives out of the mouth of the cave just as it falls in behind him...but a large rock falls on his legs...And bounces off with a flash of light akin to that of the light of Galsnor. He sees the others all staring at something in the air above and standing motionless outside of the cottage which has somehow got stuck between realities and looks half like a hill of rubble and half like a deserted cottage. The ninja says in awed tones "Now that is one big dragon...Wonder what he ate to get that big?" Looking up with apprehension Kronthor sees a very big red dragon in the sky glaring down (with eyes the size of bar tables) at the group as it flaps gigantic wings and roars down at you in a voice like thunder claps echoing over the countryside "Who stole my Night Light!?!!
Snotagnome2 01-13-07, 01:37 PM	I grab the most valuable treasure and all that I can hold then running out of the dungeon saying "I'M RICH I'M RICH I'M RICH!!" :)
Snotagnome2 01-13-07, 03:28 PM	"Who stole my Night Light!?!! My guy yells "My Treasure!!"
DmofAlterak 01-15-07, 05:12 PM	My guy yells "My Treasure!!" The dragon dose not find that amusing and as for the other PC's... Meanwhile the titanic lizard glares evilly at the human warrior :mad:
Astron the Wizard 01-20-07, 11:10 AM	:hides:
techhunter 01-20-07, 05:22 PM	Where did he come from!!!! refering to the massive dragon. Amber prepares several cold missiles and ready her force field and psychic focus.
DmofAlterak 01-22-07, 01:29 PM	Where did he come from!!!! refering to the massive dragon. Amber prepares several cold missiles and ready her force field and psychic focus. The ninja turns to Amber as the dragon prepares to roar out something "I think he caved in the caverns on us" Amber remembers the large reading her scanners picked up over the caves earlier which she had suspected of being a star ship or aircraft and now suspects it was this giant reptile. The dragon wheels overhead blasting you with air and the gaurd captain Boroc shouts "That's the anceint red wyrm Fogalthalder!!" Shaking to the toes of his boots the rough old man turns to Marco and musters a weak cynical smile "Time ta prove yerself it seems dragon slayer..." The dragon wheels about and thunders down Drop all of my treasure and back away from it...or else..." Steam issues forth from it's nostrils as it flys towards you.
Snotagnome2 01-23-07, 04:14 PM	My dude says you can't have it and throws a bottle of perfume into the dragons nostrels to keep it sneezing while my character runs away giggleing evily he he he he. :evillaugh
Astron the Wizard 02-04-07, 02:19 PM	I try to coax the light into giving me the ability to win this battle: "Light...give me strength,let me defeat this dragon..."
DmofAlterak 02-10-07, 11:58 AM	The bottle of perfume sails up into the great red wyrms nostril and he gives a titanic roar as the battle is started. No sooner had this transpired than crowned and bejeweled the mighty hero fled giggling evilly on the high winds...Or so the bards say. Summoning his will power Kronthor attempts to coax the light into giving him the power to defeat the ancient red dragon. Peering out from his own eyes the essence of the light looks at the monstrous beast all fangs and claws and says in his mind You have GOT to be kidding me, why not ask for something easy like a fortune in gold? Nevertheless Kronthor feels the power of the light awesome and mighty and under his control. Bringing it to bear on the dragon he unleashes a blast of white energy so powerful that several deitys spit their morning tea across the table on the outer planes shaken by the might of the force. Nigh in more than a few seconds the blast hits the dragon but instead of disintergrating him as you had thought the dragon is thrown backwards through the air so far you cannot see where he landed. Struck into silence the villagers and gaurds look at Kronthor in awe "What be your name sir?" asks Boroc captain of the gaurd "You've saved our lives!" (Still being in his new form the g townsmen don't recognize him). Even as he revels at his newfound might and watches Stinkagnome's retreating form in the distance he can hear the beats of two massive wings coming towards him and a creeping fear inchs towards him over the dirt over the annoyance he feels at the evil giggling still on the wind....Perhaps he will still need the aid of his companions?
Astron the Wizard 02-11-07, 10:10 AM	Uh...guys! I don't think it's dead yet! Don't run away!... Drawing my sword, I try to use the terrain to my advantage (dodging around piles of gold, jumping on fallen rocks, etc.) while I attempt to find a weak spot in the dragon's defenses, in ways both physical and tactical. If finding one, I procede to stab it.
techhunter 02-12-07, 07:33 AM	I launch cold missiles after it, after Astron's atk and collect some more treasure. keeping an eye on the scanners.
DmofAlterak 02-12-07, 04:26 PM	Because the caves collapsed the treasure is buried slightly underground but you cans still use the rubble to your advantage. The dragon flys back into view and unleashes a torrent of red hot flame on Kronthor. He finds the lights power shielding him from the awesome heat of the flames which start to melt the nearby rocks and cause a pit in the earth to form around him. He feels his power weakening as the flames burn on and on but then there is a terrible explosion and the dragon is flung back once more as a wave of cold instantly forms crystals on the formerly hot rocks near where Kronthor is (except the ones directly around him). The dragon gets up and releases a terrible angry roar causing the villagers and gaurds to run screaming in terror. You can feel the spell like influence of the dragons roar creeping upon you but both resist it Amber having a strong mental barrier and Kronthor shielded by his own shape shifting heritage and the lights power. However Stinkagnome is rapidly approaching from the direction he fled spittle flying from his mouth, swinging his sword around and around his head, and heading straight for all of you. The dragon wathches and snaps it's jaws at Amber seemingly unsure of attacking again.
Astron the Wizard 02-19-07, 08:44 PM	(OOC: Alright! I'm invinsible!!!!!) I try to take the dragon's hesitation to my advantage, still staying on the side of caution however.
DmofAlterak 02-20-07, 01:18 PM	Astron laughs at the ancient red dragon "Ha ha ha! I have the advantage!" The dragon taken aback by the strange proclamation sits on it's haunches and shrugs. then it gets back into position and bars its titanic fangs emitting a long low growl that shakes loose stone on the ground. Summoning the power of the light Astron hears a female voice in his head "Oh great, sure set me against a red dragon will you?, but did you have to insult him!!?? I think I might just cut off your power for a few seconds to give you a quick lesson." Suddenly Kronthor finds that he has stopped glowing and seems to shrink down to the ground from where he was unconciously levitating ( neither of which he had earlier noticed). There is a horrible moment of silence then the dragons mouth splits into a wide and horrible smile. It leaps the full two hundred foot distance between them and would have swallowed Kronthor down but a madman crashes into him and knocks him out of the dragons way and down to the ground. He only has a second to be glad at the warrirors return when he sees the blank expression in Stinkagnomes eyes and his tongue out the warrior gets up and draws his sword upon Kronthor. The dragonr roars out it's rage at foiling it's own plan accidentally. The ninja shivers in his boots shaking from head to foot and stands rooted to the spot staring at the dragon "Tthers n-no p-place like home! T-theres N-no place l-like HOME!"
Astron the Wizard 03-06-07, 04:51 PM	(OOC) Topic kick! And a bump! ...I don't seem to remember insulting it.
techhunter 03-12-07, 08:42 AM	I launch another barrage of cold missiles and and a psychic crush at the dragon. *Amber mumbles to herself* I knew I should've brought that disintegrator rifle with me.*
DmofAlterak 03-17-07, 04:42 PM	(OOC) Topic kick! And a bump! ...I don't seem to remember insulting it. Kronthor didn't insult it, it was just freaked cause you set it against an ancient red wyrm...;) I launch another barrage of cold missiles and and a psychic crush at the dragon. *Amber mumbles to herself* I knew I should've brought that disintegrator rifle with me.* The mighty force of the cold missles is too much for the dragon large and powerful as it is and even before she has time to employ her pyschic crush on it the red dragon turns into a massive cube of ice. Meanwhile Stinkagnome stops attacking Kronthor and only then dose he notice it as Stinkagnome's attacks were fairly ineffectual. Burdened down with priceless objects you now face the daunting task of figuring out how to get the rest of the loot out from 10 tons of rock collapsed over an interdemensional portal which self inverted and destructed. Xp awards are as follows: Kronthor total: 1200 xp Amber of the Tech Hunters: 1050 xp Marco: 500 xp Stinkagnome: 120 xp Part of the reason Kronthor got so much is that his character did some good deeds an I'm a stinker for that and humour so if anyone wants more xp those are some cues :) Sorry for not posting in so long everyone, I checked about a week ago and no one had replied to my post so I kind of left it for a long time.
Astron the Wizard 03-19-07, 04:17 PM	(OOC: Alright more xp for me! You are forgiven for your transgression, dmofalterak. And I meant, "I don't seem to remember insulting the red dragon", not, "I don't seem to remember insulting the light" :P ) I guess I recall the common phrase of some diety or other Life is more valuable than even the priceyest jewl (how the hell do you spell "priceyest"?). I yell "everyone take what you can and run! Well salvage the rest later!" And I procede to follow my own advice.
DmofAlterak 03-20-07, 01:41 PM	Okay (with reference to insulting the dragon and not the light, oops I minsinterpreted that), HA HA HA HA HA!:) That's the funniest thing I've read in a while and I've been running around the humour boards! Bonus xp! I'll just play the other characters for a while... Kronthor runs around taking all the loot and and ends up looking like this when he has all the stuff he dropped in the battle::king: except like ten times richer. he looks in a mirror at himself and sees that he's the richest looking guy he's seen in his life. Amber thumbs through the tech books and dosn't seem to mind if anyone takes her valuable treasure "All junk, this on the other hand happens to have the formulae...etc." Marco puts on his fancy armor and readjusts a large crown with rubies on it so it fits better "Wha' do you think guys?":D Stinkagnome grins "I'll have to change my name to Stinkin' rich gnome!" The gaurds come out from behind a hill "Can we have some of the loot?" "Yes you owe us at least halve the money" says the evil hawk guy from the merchantiers stalls in the town. The gaurd captain Boroc is the only one who frowns and looks worried "I don't know about this...You'll need protection, as soon as you get back in to-Wait! you saved our village fromt the Nilbogs! how can we thank you!!" The ninja jumps out at him Boroc AGgghhh!! Ninja *jumps* Aghhhghhghghhgh!! Ninja: don't scare me like that okay? Boroc... Ninja: How about you let us keep the loot? Boroc; What do you think? The merchant shakes his head no Marco shakes his head yes the ninja looks confused Is this a vote? I wan my lawyer!! Amber keeps reading oblivious to the goings ons.
Snotagnome2 03-20-07, 01:53 PM	Sorry I didn't post for a while guys. My guy blows a bubble gum sticks a whole bunch of treasure in it and then sticks it in his pocket. Then says "Super protection invincible bubble gums":confused: :weep: "Wait how'm I going to get my money out!" Then my guy keeps trying to hack the invincible bubble gum to get the money out of it but unsuccessfully. "Anyone want this money? You have to give me 10 gp for this 1,000 gp, good deal! Hmmmm I smell a rogue, a thief, Kronthor look out! a rogues behind you trying to steal the light!!" Then I grab the ligth and run for my life "Hey wait!, you can have this bubble gum full of money thing, awww I don't want to be evil." Hands the light back and grabs the bubble gum back and says "My bubble gum.":)
Astron the Wizard 03-21-07, 07:25 PM	um..I vote yes
DmofAlterak 03-22-07, 07:54 PM	"it is settled then" says Boroc * You return to the village and are greeted by a massive crowd "the gaurds ran ahead to tell everyone" There is a mass of cheering at your arrival as you have defeated both the Nilbogs and the dreaded red dragon: HIP HIP HOORAY! pRAISE THE dRAGONS SLAYER! ALL HAIL THE KING!! GEORGE!!! OOPS!! GEORGE!!! OOPS!!! GEORGE!!!!! PRAISE TO AMBER, THE DRAGON SLAYER!! The crowd surges forwards and picks up Amber onto their shoulders and carries her off. One little kid remains behind to talk to Kronthor and get your auto graphs "Hey could you sign this please!" asks the cute little kid "This is totally magical, I can get the sigs of the famous dragon slayers henchmen!!" The ninja turns to Kronthor "What do we do now?" and makes a bizzare symbol on the kids paper "here ya go matey!" Thanks! man rushes up "Hey you guys! Did you save the village? Well you see there's this problem...A fellow wearing red dragon armor just robbed a jewelery store while a green dragon stood on the porch distracting the shop keeper" Scratches his head "your the only dragon slayers I know of in the area..." Unnoticed by him the air starts to shimmer blue around the man. The light speaks in Kronthor's head "uh oh."
techhunter 03-27-07, 10:36 AM	Amber is pleasantly surprised and highly impressed as the cold missiles hit and freeze the dragon. *Gonna have to thank the gang at R&D for the missiles.* Then she makes some notes to pass to R&D later. YAY me! Keeping some gems for herself and including the tech manuals. :) As for sharing the the treasure, sure why not, theres plenty. Amber humbly accepts the townsfolk praise and enjoys the ride. *Note to self, bring disintegrator rifle next time. :)*
DmofAlterak 03-27-07, 03:22 PM	Amber is led to the town hall where there are numerous people of varying social classes who all insist on thanking her personnally and shaking her hand or hugging her. Many praise her for her great generosity and say that the king of the land should give her a knight hood, had he only seen her great deed. A grand banquet is set out with many a dish, It is all but prepared by the time the exhausted Amber is through being congratulated by everyone. She finds it strange though that the others have not joined the feast... * The man glows blue and time seems to freeze where Kronthor stands. The shimmering dies down somewhat and in the middle of the luminescence stands a tall muscled man with an impeccable hair do. He looks somewhat upset and says "Uhh Kronthor?" When the deity sees that it is Kronthor he smiles "Ahh! it is Kronthor I see, I am Belroth Deity of balance and small muffins, hand over the light and no one gets hurt." No sooner had he stopped speaking then a huge blast of brown light hits the air from behind Kronthor... Amber's sensors suddenly register a temporal distortion and two massive blasts of energy, also the origin of the energy blasts seem to be two energy based lifeforms near the light of Galsnor and hence Kronthor.
DmofAlterak 03-27-07, 03:35 PM	The Plot It occured to me that the plot may not be self evident and while mystery adds to a game/story if the players and not the characters have no clue what's going on then it can be a bad thing so: In the town of Ofaserfer the adventurer Stinkagnome asked about adventures of the inn keeper of the Ostrich Inn he learned that the Mayor needed help with some Nilbogs, Making his way there he joined kronthor and Marco and there was a battle with a strange mechanical creature, new plot? Then a red dragon came and destroyed only the Mayors building incapitating him, strange that it should attack only the mayor hmmm? Upon investigating it was found the mayor had left a cryptic note hinting that an evil cable of wizards was in league with the Nilbogs. The heroes met up with Amber of the Techunters (perhaps sooner than this). and decided to set out for the Nilbogs lair instead of the red dragon. They found a cottage with an interdemsional portal and mean while the villagers and gaurds (some) followed them. There was a fight in which the wizard Akran secretly in league with the evil wizards fought with the Nilbogs but was defeated with the help of the villagers and gaurds from up the passage. As was said in some prophecy or other the golden door could only be opened when someone not of this world, an elf who is not an elf, A dragon slayer, and a stinky gnome who is not stinky or a gnome came to it (the nilbogs red dragon and the wizards were all in league trying to get the fabled treasure hoard). The dragon had planned to betray the wizards and Nilbogs and the wizards had planned to betray the Nilbogs so: The red dragon came in and collapsed the dungeon but the group made it out with the most valuable treasure and defeated the mighty red wyrm. The dragon had previously used the Light of Galsnor as a night light. Kronthor did not offend the dragon but was in possesion of it's night light and some treasure it wanted. Naturally the town was very grateful for the Nilbogs AND the dragon being defeated and thus no longer being a menace to the town. This leaves a group of psycho evil wizards with dead wizard and a lot of plotting to do... If anyone would like further explanation then please ask and I'll try to answer it here (unless it would give away a plot twist or some such). Thanks! DmofAlterak :D P.S. Thank you to Astron the Wizard,Techhunter, Snotagnome, , and PrGo for playing in this campaign and bringing it too life, It's been fun! :D I am open to any suggestions or story ideas if you have them too. :D
techhunter 03-29-07, 11:27 AM	Here's a suggestion, we hunt down said evil wizards and put them out of our misery or we can drop a small tactical nuke on them.:D
Astron the Wizard 03-29-07, 04:18 PM	dragon..slayer's...henchman! How is that possibly fair? What follows is an abbrevieated version of the fight with the dragon. Astron: I attack the dragon Amber: Yawn Astron: I use the light's power to attack the dragon Amber: Yawn Astron: Is it dead? DmofAlterak:no Amber: I launch a barrage of cold missles at the dragon, is it dead? DmofAlterak: Yes. The townsfolk love you. Astron::allalone: Anyway, If I understand correctly, that's the end of the adventure, but we're going to continue to play the rest of the campaign on this thread. Is this or is this not correct? Should we wait for you to post more about the new adventure, or can we post now, with that information from your latest posts? Because, If so, I'm going to try to run away from the deity of small muffins and ask the light what's happening. Edit: Wow. Am I really still an elf? I could have sworn I changed shape. WEll, anyway, by the time the next adventure gets rolling, I suspect I'll change shape soon enough.
techhunter 04-02-07, 02:44 PM	There there *pat pat* Nodwick...er Kronthor. We all know you helped too.
Astron the Wizard 04-10-07, 09:03 AM	You know, I just knew someone was going to say that.
techhunter 04-10-07, 10:43 AM	You know, I just knew someone was going to say that. LOL!!!
DmofAlterak 04-13-07, 03:02 PM	sorry I took so long to post :weep: Kronthor: Yes the new adventure is already started and you can decide to do whatever you would like to without worrying about messing up the plot (if you do your best at messing it up though, it might not have much of a plotline) :) Also you did try to defeat the dragon; but the light was mad at you (as girls can be ;)) and so it took Ambers missles take it out. Naturally Amber was hailed as the "Dragon Slayer" Techhunter: hilarious:D bonus xp! Same to you Kronthor your posts were funny too ;) Amber checks her scanners and then gose back to the feast. She eats an orange while considering the best way to tactical nuke some pesky wizards. Meanwhile Kronthor runs away from Belroth deity of small muffins and balance. Belroth remains motionless and sighs, then he lowers his hands "Why dose it always have to be this way with mortals? They never cooperate. Suddenly Kronthor finds himself back in front of Belroth who is smiling "I'm a deity you know" he winks. At Kronthor's questioning the light says "Oh dang. Looks like you've attracted the attention of the deities O' mighty master AND DON'T SAY IT WAS MY FAULT BE-" There is suddenly a horrible blast as the temporal time continumm is breached and a humanoid form steps through the tear in time... The ninja looks around "Hey where did the hot dog guy go?" Belroth looks freaked out but trys to straighten his face and punches the air "Ah I knew that was...um what's going on here anyway?"
DmofAlterak 04-15-07, 12:15 PM	The Ninja stares him shrewdly in the eye...:ahem: :pbbbtt:
techhunter 04-16-07, 10:17 AM	Oh lovely. Now who's coming in? Betcha 10 to 1 it's got something do with that light and Nodwick.
Astron the Wizard 04-16-07, 03:11 PM	"um...light, care to explain what's going on?" (I think this, but I don't say it out loud)
DmofAlterak 04-16-07, 10:41 PM	The Light "Nope, I'm staying out of this" The ninja looks around and then seems to spot something through the temporal barrier "Awright! hot dog man!" :) Gzzzzhhhhsshh! *Tears through the temporal barrier and the last you hear is "Where on earth did he go?"* Belroth "Uhhh I thought that thing was unbreachable? Anyway hand over the light or..or else." Insert- Amber: the grapes at the feast are particularly good. -End insert. The Light"I wouldn't listen to him if I were you." Amber: (You read nodwick too? I like those comics). :D
techhunter 04-17-07, 07:21 AM	The Light "Nope, I'm staying out of this" The ninja looks around and then seems to spot something through the temporal barrier "Awright! hot dog man!" :) Gzzzzhhhhsshh! *Tears through the temporal barrier and the last you hear is "Where on earth did he go?"* Belroth "Uhhh I thought that thing was unbreachable?

I like those comics). :D *goes back to eating considering it's none of her business* (yes I read Nodwick and vote that Kronthor's new nick name will Nodwick2! :) )
Astron the Wizard 04-17-07, 04:52 PM	(to the light) You don't need to help me out of this, just tell me what's happening. How do you know this guy? (to Belroth) As a diety, I'm certain that you are familiar with the phrase 'things are not always as they seem'? OOC: At the words 'not always' I start changing shape into a humungous toad. I then lick my eyeball with my tounge. (I saw a frog do that once) Edit: Yes, I think Nodwick2 would be a great nickname!
DmofAlterak 04-17-07, 09:46 PM	Okie dokey Nodwick2 eh? :D As-Nodwick2: :D you saw a frog do that? sweet!:D The Light *sigh* "I guess so, You see he's some sort of deity of balance, old acquantance you might say. Guess he figures I make things un-balanced or something, can't say I agree with him though. Fair's Fair as old Teneborth used to say. Anything else you would like to know? I've been-hey! what are you doing?!" Belroth looks incredulous and then weirded out. so to speak What in the fifty nine demionsions of filthy evilness?!! Kronthor licks his new eyeball. Belroth shields his face Yeucckk! This has GOT to be some kind of trick... Pifzam! An even taller man appears in the temporal bubble; he is dressed in completely black armor complete with an intimidating looking greek style helmet fashioned with inhuman skill. He holds a long hafted spear too large for most normal 0-level peasants to-er well It's a big spear anyway. ;) He looks about to say something to Belroth but then sees his expression and looks over at Krontho-Nodwick2. His expression is unreadable behind the helm but his eyes look like this: left eye :bigeyes: right eye :heehee
techhunter 04-18-07, 11:34 AM	*notices the temporal bubble. Takes a scan, takes a few notes and sets up a remote hover camera/scanner to record the events. Then she goes back to the feast and returns to how to drop a tactical nuke(s) on a group of wizards.* I'm sure Nodwick2 will handle this, if not I got enough duct tape to tape him back together.
DmofAlterak 04-18-07, 01:24 PM	:D The raspberries at the feast are particulary good. The Mayor leans over to Amber and says "Dragon Slayer, do you know what the magic bubble is?"
techhunter 04-19-07, 07:32 AM	Apparently a deity has some issues with one of my henchmen and thus created a bubble in the time/space continum . I am monitering the situation and I will react if things get out hand.
Astron the Wizard 04-19-07, 03:35 PM	(to light) Um.... how about this other guy? Is he a diety too? Is he on our side?
DmofAlterak 04-20-07, 03:35 PM	Techhunter: "ha ha haha ha!" :D The light "Umm I'm not sure who this-" Other Deity "Err I am Donaus can he understand me?" Belroth uses advanced know stuff spell and then uses his powers to try and force Kronthor back into his normal state "Aha! he's just fooling, he's a changleling" Well in that case I am here to inform you you can't take the light from him Èeh? It's in the Deities handbook of no interference "Finders keepers rule 352.35" "Hmmm" Belroth glares at Kronthor "This isn't over mortal I'm going to get you somethime or over" The other deity nods to Kronthor "good day mortal, sorry about disturbing your life" The two deities disappear and time resumes at the point before all of this occured. Only Kronthor and his companions retain memory of what happened. * Amber finds herself eating the same grape over. * The man wrings his hands "Will you do something hero?"
techhunter 04-23-07, 09:31 AM	Amber muses upon eating the same grape over again and wondering if it would taste better the second time around. Her scanners record the anomaly in the time/space continum, she reads the data and smiles. "Fear not good Mayor, A pair of deities are having a conversation with my henchman. If things get out hand then I will step in.
DmofAlterak 04-23-07, 11:35 AM	the mayor being a simple man looks confused at Amber's statement but is reassured by it nontheless and smiles. Amber also finds that since she was outside the time space bubble all of her data, literally had not been recorded yet, which leaves unexplained why she has any memory of it in the first place. Maybe the Deities could tell her something useful about temporal mechanics? This was very strange. Unless the instruments had temporal shielding. If so please let me know. Thanks!

Fortunetly Amber activated the temporal shielding on her instrumments just in case a instance did happen. she would alerted to it. (ooc techhunter falls asleep from having too little of sleep :zzz:
Astron the Wizard 04-25-07, 03:33 PM	OOC: He can't take the light? wOOt!:w00t: I'm so happy. IC: Kronthor, trying to stay in "character" you might say, gives a great burp, growl, croak, etc. Whatever a loud froggy noise is. Like a bullfrog.
DmofAlterak 04-26-07, 02:05 PM	The man looks at Kronthor the giant bullfrog. "? where did he go?" runs off to look for him. Amber falls asleep so the mayor smiles and has some youngsters carefully carry her off to the nicest bed in town for a rest. Kronthor the bullfrog sees a giant green dragon coming toward the saloon. thump... Thump....Thump! krash! crunch! It squishes the saloon and the barber runs out screaming. The dragon roars happily Now that old geezer's gone I get his territory! Yay!" Kronthor's eyes turn and he sees the young lads carrying Amber to the hostel just as the dragon approaches from the other direction they leave dusting their hands. Amber rolls over "hmmm maybe it was an earthquake? she'd set the instruments up tommorow..." The Dragon prepares to leap and crush the building whole. The gaurds run around from a corner and start shooting ineffectual crossbow bolts at the dragon.
Astron the Wizard 04-28-07, 03:51 PM	I carefully...wait. No. I don't do anything carefully. I scream to Amber at the top of my froggy lungs that a green dragon is attacking the city.
techhunter 04-30-07, 07:33 AM	Amber wakes up with a start and pulls enough parts out her pack to make a disintegrator rifle and with a clap of her hands creates the rifle (via psionics) and shoots the dragon at full power as well sending a psychic crush . Her automated systems go online as well
DmofAlterak 04-30-07, 03:07 PM	With the skill of a veteran warrior Amber assembles her disintegrator rifle and unleashes both weapons at the dragon. Except it jumped at that moment and she accidentally vaporizes the mead hall.:eek: The ground crunches up as her Psychic Crush hits it odd...It's not supposed to miss... She peers out the window and then Crrash! She feels the weight of a large dragon for a moment through the wooden boards broken over her head and then it springs off. She wriggles out of the rubble feeling squished. Alot of her equipment is damaged. She sees the dragon flying off. The people come running towards the commotion and start cheering for her again "Amber has saved us from another dragon! YaY! Many of the towns citizens insist on carrying her away but have already used up all the feast supplies.;) The mayor soon drives everyone off and arranges her new acommadations, he's not sure what to do about the giant toad (frog?). Ah at last some bed rest. Amber enters a fitful sleep thinking about how she's going to salvage her equipment tommorow. * A man with a pike is coming toward Kronthor, he's got his tongue out and an expression of concentration on his face.:rant: * In her dreams Amber senses an alein mind. It feels old very old. It echoes in flashes of color not quite words but more like deep sound "Why did you challenge me? Who are you?" In the inn the floor boards creak and the door creaks open.

We ridded ourselves of one dragon do you honestly think we would want another to come and terrorizing the village and countryside. As for who I am. That's for me to know...."
Astron the Wizard 05-01-07, 07:05 PM	A man with a pike you say? Is it all posed and ready for battle, or does he just sort of have it in his hands?
Saiben 05-02-07, 03:07 PM	Weary of my 3 tenday treck, i came upon a city that i was not at all familiur with. staff in hand, i aproached the city gates. The gaurdsman took a step forward, readying their weapons, but i just merely flashed my holy symbol from around my neck, a symbol of the monks in servitude of the god Ilmater. They gave me a knowing nod and allowed passage. Ilmater servents are widly known as peace bringers, weather that peace be braught upon by peaceful resolution or fiery vindictivness was left up to the individual. I personaly, prefer the later. As I aproached the city proper in search of a hotel, a loud explosion and screams resounded over the blurry noice of the crowd. people turned to the sky as a bright green figure was flying away from the city, visibly injured by whatever the source of that blast was. Curiosity overeloped me, and i aproached the source of the blast to investigate. As i neared where i estimated the blast originated, i could tell by a quick scan around that i was correct. debree lay about, and a slightly dissapated crowd still murmored of heroics that would surely be widespread gossip by mornings next light. Not to far from the place of incident was a small, well kept inn. i journied into there and purchased a room forwhich i could stay a few days to refresh my supplies, then head back out. After a quick meal of week old sweetbread and a supprisingly delicous potato soup, i headed up to my room, adournded my night clothes and climbed into bed. not an hour after i finally began to sleep was i awoken by the muffled cries of someone next door. i stood quickly to my feet and grabbed my staff, whispering a spell that would enhance my hearing. from the other side of the wall i herd mumblings of challenging dragons or some sort. after a quick spell to determine if evil resided in that room, (none was) i decided it was the hero of todays dragon attack, merely having night terrors. i lay back down, and try to once again get comfortable. but just as i close my eyes i hear the squeaking of a door and creaking of floorboards. my hearing still magically enhanced, these sounds resounded in my ear as sure as if i was standing right near the source, or better. startled i sprung up, only to see a glowing red figure, his aura the tell tale sign of an evil presence in my magicly augmented eye, distintly through the floor, towards the inn comman room, where the main entrance lies. as i pulled on my clothing, i smirked to myself. it seemed this night would not let the restless warrior iin the room next to his have all the fun.
Astron the Wizard 05-03-07, 03:12 PM	:confused:
Astron the Wizard 05-05-07, 10:42 AM	:bump:
techhunter 05-08-07, 10:47 AM	bumpity bump. Waiting for the DM to get get off his rump. ;)
DmofAlterak 05-10-07, 01:37 PM	that makes me smile :D Kronthor: the man looks crazed and he is holding it threateningly as if to attack the giant frog. The dragons voice sniffs loudly in Amber's mind "Judging people by thier appearances is not a very intelligent form of conduct. I can see your not from around here. Anyway it's a dragons right to lay claim to all it sees. Sure I can handle insane knights trying to kill me every week or two in various villages but I've never been shot at like that before and you used your mind to attack as well, I've not seen that in many before you. Do you realize the power you wield?" * The man comes closer and closer jabbing his spear as if he thinks he's a profient martial artist. * Out in the hall the (Priest of Ilmater?) finds a woman in about her thirties with some linen towels for the dragon slayers bed. She seems startled by his appearance but bows and backs up to let him past "My apologies for waking you master, The floor is old and my step none too silent" She seems frightened of her slip up in front of him.:eek: witha tinge of:weep: withought the crying.
DmofAlterak 05-10-07, 01:39 PM	Off topic: How often would you guys like me to post? I can't make any gaurantees with work and all that but I can try to post once every two three or some such days and then we won't all have to check the thread all the time.:D :plotting: Although last time I tried doing that I failed abysmally :)
techhunter 05-11-07, 07:34 AM	that makes me smile :D The dragons voice sniffs loudly in Amber's mind "Judging people by thier appearances is not a very intelligent form of conduct.

Sure I can handle insane knights trying to kill me every week or two in various villages but I've never been shot at like that before and you used your mind to attack as well, I've not seen that in many before you. Do you realize the power you wield?" I could argue all night about who has what rights. The bottom line is; You're a dragon and dragons have the tendency to attack and /or extort from villages, thus the need for people like myself to protect said people from people like you. As for realizing the power I wield..I do and where I come from there other even more powerful than me......
Astron the Wizard 05-11-07, 03:33 PM	I quickly change into a wizened old man. "See?" I tell the person holding the spear, "That's why I don't like to be in my true form very often. Too many people try to attack me. Don't worry about giant frogs, most often they can't hurt you!" EDIT: (OOC: Just post whenever you can, Mr. DM. I'm often busy on Wednesday, but I'll have almost a completely clear schedule in a couple weeks, and I'll let you know If I take a vacation.)
DmofAlterak 05-15-07, 05:21 PM	Okay thanks Astron! :D The dragon sounds a bit miffed "Hmmph where is it exactly you come from?" The door opens and a lady comes in to put extra linens into the room. The villager stands frozen looking at the now old Kronthor he seems not to be paying attention to Kronthor's words "Say, did you see where that big frog thing went. I'm off to kill it. What's this about true form?" A knight comes riding into town. Standard knightish fellow, shiny silver armor, that sort of thing. but he has a small dove in his arms and stops in the square. "Here ye! anyone know about birds?" he seems perplexed.
techhunter 05-15-07, 05:55 PM	Okay thanks Astron! :D The dragon sounds a bit miffed "Hmmph where is it exactly you come from?" *smirk* Lets say I live in same plane as you do, but on a world very very very far away from here.
Saiben 05-16-07, 01:59 PM	in such a rush to step from my room, i nearly toppled over a passing maid off on her duties, who seemed horrified by my apearence. she apoligized, thinking that she had awoken me, but she smiled lightly and got back to her work when i reassured her that i was already awake and she had not bothered me the bit, and apoligised for my bumping into her. then i decended down the stairs drawn by the red aura. when i reach the base, i see quite an odd site. a frantic looking man brandishing a pike at a giant... toad? confused, I crouch down under the stair banister to observe the confrontation undiscovered. (OOC: please dont bump me ; ; if my posting is that big of a problem then i will leave on my own accord. but if it helps, ive put full details of my charicter in the charicter posting thread thing. thank you for letting me RP with you ^_^)
Astron the Wizard 05-16-07, 05:35 PM	It's fine with me, but then, I'm not the DM. Oh, and it might be useful to note that this thread isn't very RP-heavy. I'm pretty sure it was made in the wrong section of the forum, and no one really bothered to move the thread. Therefore, it's more of a semi-serious thread that should be in REAL ADVENTURES but isn't, not the usual stuff you guys do in the Map of the Planes board.
Saiben 05-18-07, 11:19 AM	ah, i see. my apoligies.:(
techhunter 05-22-07, 11:41 AM	welcome to the crew
Astron the Wizard 05-23-07, 03:14 PM	ah, i see. my apoligies.:( Well, don't take it the wrong way. I just thought you deserved a fair warning before playing.
DmofAlterak 05-25-07, 12:59 PM	Hey no problem. I don't object to roleplaying and welcome aboard Saiben! :D very,very,very far away humm? Like Tilkeyou?-wait hey! The draconian's thoughts suddenly leave Amber's mind and she see's the maid is in her room tending to something on the bedboard. * Downstairs. The man snarls more to himself than Kronthor "I vill kill the toad thing!!" he runs out of the Inn. Unknownst to you all you are being watched from the stairs... Almost before the door closes you hear a crack of thunder from withought a storm has brewed up in the night and a man with a dark cloak enters. He raises a meaty hand for silence among the only other occupant of the deserted and silent inn common room "Greetings Kronthor I bring news from-gurk!" He falls fast first with a loud THUMP. to the floor. A long and wickedly handled dagger with a serpents head is sticking in his back. The strange thing the door is still closed. a floor board creaks a few feet away at the other side of the room "Ahhh you realize I am here do you Kronthor? You should have never betrayed me" The room is silent save for the rumble of thunder withought... * The rain patters heavily on Amber's window 'how unusual a storm could have brewed so fast but even modern tech can't always predict the weather...And why was the maid in her room?" * In the streets withought a crack of lighting throws releif upon someone striding through the rain. Someone. Or something.
Astron the Wizard 05-26-07, 08:44 AM	Kronthor scrunches up his eyes in concentration. Okay. The first thing I've got to do is figure out who the heck this guy is, and then figure out if I've ever betrayed him, he thinks. Aloud he says "I'm pretty sure you've got the wrong guy. What did this traitor do to you exactly?" All the while he is backing up slowly, his hand is tensed on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw it in a moment's notice. OOC: I like the new direction this thread is taking.
techhunter 05-26-07, 02:26 PM	very,very,very far away humm? Like Tilkeyou?-wait hey!

Well that was rude. And who's Tilkeyou? *Amber shrugs* Probably just another dragon. *To the maid* Excuse me. I didn't ask for room service. *Amber checks out the bedboard and checks to see if anything is stolen even if if it is broken. If it is something needs tending to she will, otherwise she goes about repairing her equip that the very rude dragon broke! (If I'm in my room how can be watched form the stairs?) Amber notices the weather and goes about fixing her stuff.
Astron the Wizard 06-05-07, 10:33 AM	Live thread, LIIIIIIIIIVE! Bump bump bump. Things that go bump in the night are scary and have bumps all over their bumpy bodies. :bump:
DmofAlterak 06-07-07, 04:56 PM	Sorry guys ;) Amber: I said you all when I should have more accurately said Kronthor and the others therein as it was the new character watching from the stairs. * Downstairs: The voice comes again but it moves about the room so that you can't pinpoint where the person is. The voice is familiar someone he knew or used to know..."He he you don't remember do you Kronthor? It is I, the one whose brain you tried to melt, the one who you tried to kill, I don't forget Kronthor...And I never forgive." The room is filled then only with the sound of thunder. Kronthor strains his ears and just as he feels a rush from behind him the door smashes open and something comes flying in in a streak of red screaming "Arreeeeeaiiiiiaaaa!!" Upstairs: The maid backs up and lets you look at the night table Amber. Nothing is taken. The dragon's voice seems to have left your mind. As you go about your equipment you see the maid still standing in your room and she smiles at you. Her eyes flash crimson and she makes toward you. You sense a dangerousness about the movement. Only monsters and people Amber has fought have moved that way. The lady hisses. Up-Upstairs: The rain patters. It is a dark room. Someone gets up out of it's bed and then falls to the floor. The thud is audible throughout the inn. * Before Amber can react the maid smiles more widely and then jumps at her.

Amber on one foot pushes herself backwards enough to get of range of her attacker. She claps her hands quickly and touches the floor, in burst of purple psionic enengy the floor boards wrap themselves around the attacker and give Amber enough time to don armor and ready weapons and psioniceattack(s)* (ooc badda bing* :) )
DmofAlterak 06-08-07, 11:08 PM	Which is a brilliant ploy except as the boards wrap around the startled maid she grabs the two boards on her legs with white hands and crushes the boards to splinters! A feat that no ordinary human should be able to do. Perhaps she knew the psionic arts? Amber only has a scant moment for a possible projectile or mental strike before the maid leaping through the air is at her. Mouth agape in a psychotic fashion. * The body upstairs lies still as the rain continues to patter. * Downstairs the newcomer throws off his hood revealing bright red hair and a startling familar face to Kronthor smirking the man begins to say something before a blast of green light aimed for Kronthor's back but dodged at the last moment slams into his face. Kronthor realizes immediately who it was- I have decided to leave off here. :cool:

With a sound like cracking ice the maid turns into crystal and drops to the floor alive but unmoving and unaware, hoping that will buy enough time for her get herself armored and armed. ([fyi short version] crystalize, turns a victim into living but unmoving crytstal. the effect are permanet til dispelled by caster or one 3 or 5 lvs higher than the caster)
Astron the Wizard 06-10-07, 12:04 PM	(Okay Mr. DM, not cool) "Arrrrrgh!" Man, apparently, a lot of people want me dead, Kronthor thinks. "Look," Kronthor says, trying hard to think of really exactly who it is, "I have no idea who you are, so if you can excuse me for a moment, I've got to run!" Kronthor starts running in zig-zag patterns, towards a place he can hide.
DmofAlterak 06-12-07, 03:39 PM	Kronthor realizes it is Akran. Or at least something that sounds like him. He runs a zig zag and makes it out into the pelting rain of the street where he runs for a place to hide. The door bursts wide and someone runs after Kronthor. Their right on his tail and he realizes he won't be able to hide. The person is yelling "Aie Aie Aie!" at him. Lightning flashes. Someone is running at him from the other direction. Their yelling to him "Stop Kronthor! stop! In the name of the king!" * The maids starts to crystalize and then it crumbles back off and she grins showing pointed teeth "How could this be?" She comes forwards and puts a hand toward Ambers head.

She comes forwards and puts a hand toward Ambers head. Amber scowls as she wills her lightsaber her hand and activates a green blade ememating from it and she raises Tower of Iron Will and fires up psychic crush and pumping it up to some "real" dmg and if that doesn't work she'll slice off body parts starting with the head. (ooc if that doesn't work, Techhunter is going to consider quitting this campaign)
Astron the Wizard 06-13-07, 01:06 PM	(Techhunter: You can't do that; you're character is considerably overpowered for a first level person anyway. Maybe Mr.DM is just throwing something a little more challenging at you.) ...Akran. Okay. Am I supposed to remember this 'Akran' fellow? I went back and read the first page or so, but I can't seem to find this "Akran". IC: Alright, forget hiding. Kronthor dashes for the edge of town, yelling, "You've got the wrong guy! I've never even met the king! I was framed! Leave me alone! He did it!" at the last one, he points at the pursuing Akran.

DmofAlterak 06-20-07, 03:10 PM	ooc; well this campaign was intended to have characters at level one to start with but I don't really mind if you're a higher level character but then there will be deadlier challenges to face (in the interest of preserving game balance). As for leaving the campaign because you can't kill something...Well I could see leaving the game because I'm not posting alot but leaving it because you can't win? :rolleyes: Unless you were just joking. :D Akran was the wizard who you journeyed with at the start and later he betrayed you and Amber melted his brain into a puddle of goo which fails to explain what's going on. * Kronthor runs for his life but the man yelling about the king was in the direction he fled and grabs his arm "Hold sir! I mean you no harm! The king wishes and audience with you and the Dragon slayer Amber of the Techhunters...Why do you flee so?" When Kronthor tells him he looks at the approaching form. Which means either he can see invisible people or the person isn't invisible "Hedid it? What did he do?" He has his hand on the hilt of a sword but the fellow seems decent enough to Kronthor. The light of Galsnor vibes in his head "Someones pesking Amber, don't ask me how I know, but I do." The other fellow keeps yelling "Aiee EEEi Eiiii" and gets closer. * The vampire jumps back seeing the glowing blade of the lightsaber "Forsooth?!! what strange magic is this?" Amber leaps in sensing weakness and decapitates her. The vampires neck stands smoking. Then the head on the ground hisses "Gadzooks! You will pay!" Amber can feel her tower of iron will being bent back towards her. She didn't even breach the womans defenses! Her mind is very old and very powerful, not to mention lying on the ground and still talking. What strange tech could enable this?

OOC: You didn't start to wonder when she could do literally everything? IC: I thank the messenger without skipping a beat, and change my course to head for the castle. On his way he yells, "Amber, we got an audience with the king! Try to avoid any crazy power-mongering wizards on your way there!" Oh, and I also draw my sword while I'm running. It's not like I want to be caught off guard right? To the light, I wonder in my mind, "Pesking? What do you mean by that?"
DmofAlterak 06-23-07, 09:27 PM	OOC: no I kinda knew but I didn't say anything. We do goofy stuff it's our creed so I don't mind if you guys don't :) The messenger runs after Kronthor as the crazilly yelling person catches up and turns out to be that pesky ninja "Kronthor, M'lord! The castle is 10 miles! Might you use your awesome magical powers to get us there fast?" The light says "Pesking is what I'm doing right now except worse. Whoa whos that handsome hunk there?" The countryside whirls under Kronthor's feet. He can hear the wizards breath weezing and then he seems to fall behind and then fall over. Thump. The messenger looks startled "What the hawks rear end was that?! A freaking chill breeze stirs your hair and you remember an old friend... Off in the north Marco is being set over a bonfire prepared by dragon worshiping small black skinned goblins jumping up and down dancing and hooting.;)
Astron the Wizard 06-24-07, 09:53 AM	I put my hand on the messenger's shoulder and say, "Walla Walla, you will is done" and think in my mind, "Light, bring me and this fellow to the castle if you please. Oh, and if you could save Marco...you know, the 'hunk', I'd be much obliged. And don't worry about Amber. I'm sure she'll be fine."
techhunter 06-26-07, 07:14 AM	Amber planes shifts to Elysium.
