"Well... in all dues fairness, she started it."

"But now that we've settled that, where to now?"

"So, if none of us need provisions, why are we still here?"

"Oh come now. You honestly think you're more attractive than me?" D'Artigo laughed. "Nice try Lyca, but you've got a long way to go before you can top me... in both looks and self absorption."

Wow! So we're still alive and kicking!

Witchcraft eh? I'll take a look at the system. Hopefully I'll learn it enough and soon enough. But I am looking forward to playing this game.

Sorry guys, going to have to drop... but I might come back later, when more time frees up... enough to learn the system.

"Kitten, don't you realize? I always look like a supermodel. I can't change that." D'Artigo shrugs. It wasn't his fault he was beautiful.

Haha, sorry, I had to fit star wars into it. But yeah, with JJ's disappearance, we had a spot open, and Stryke is recently joined! We have a full roster again.

"That was an action which was unattractive. Just, but unattractive. I however, was not unattractive while doing the action. You are confused."

Topic: Inheritance -- Epilogue
Subject: That reminds me of a comic I read.


The comic was DM of the Rings. Basically, Lord of the Rings told by a Dungeons and dragons perspective. At the end of many of the comics, the writer would share insight to his misadventures with his group. One of the lines was happening as sauron's messenger was coming from mordor, to parley with Aragorn. Aragorn decisively chopped off his head, much to the DM's complaints that he had four pages of dialogue, and he's simply said the first sentence. The caption at the bottom of this comic:

"Parley" is a french word, meaning, "Everyone else is flat-footed and empty-handed."

I think it suits this situation quite nicely.



As for the bodies, we loot them of course. It seems the logical thing to do, and we might find some indication of how they knew about the map, or who sent them. If anyone sent them.

Topic: Inheritance -- Epilogue
Subject: Okay, Goober.


Some answers here for you.

1. Perception is a BIG THING in IC relations. I know that Bezmir had no intention of letting the guy go without consulting the party. Almyrikon, however, was in bloodlust.

2. I don't like the idea you can just, end a rage at any given point. I see it as you go until you're too tired to keep raging.

3. You said it yourself. Welcome to Chaotic Neutral.

Subject: Oof.


Almyrikon stood up, accepting the hand of the dwarf... the little man did stand in his way. And he was impressed. However, this still left the question of the bandit.

Almyrikon took a quick move toward the still standing traitor. At least someone had agreed he should die. He was getting tired, but he still had enough strength in his rage to finish this. With a bellow, almost as mighty as a grizzly bear itself, he moved toward the elf and hefted his axe, intent on bring it down and finishing the bandit.

"Look, I can't understand Lycan Kitten. It sounds like growling. I'm stating what I perceive. Nothing more."

"And it would seem as though she has no problem hearing us... Lyca, when have I ever done anything where I was unattractive? Can you give me that answer?"

D'Artigo whipped his hair so that it covered the front half of his face where there was no mask. He didn't like showing his face.

As you may or may not have seen, JJmiker will sadly be leaving us. His plot line will dissipate, and the game will carry on without him. Sorry to see you go JJ.

Subject: You see?


D'Artigo looked at the cat next to him. It was even growling at him. What a strange creature. "You see? She's growling at me. Just standing here, doing nothing, and she's growling."

Topic: Inheritance -- the game
Subject: What???


"He tried to kill us! Now you let him go? I don't think so!" Almyrikon continued to advance towards the enemy. If Kannizan was dumb enough to get in his way, then so be it. He would be knocked away, then the man would be in his grasp.

(OOC: Okay, if Kannizan is gonna stand in my way, then I'm charging with an overrun involved, not just charging.)

Sorry. I'll call you goober from now on. It's easier to remember.

Well, by "from now on", I probably means for a week or so. Then it'll probably be Wyrm.

Thanks for the heads up though.

Topic: Inheritance -- Epilogue
Subject: Me charge...


I am going to try and pin this guy against a tree... I believe we're close enough for that to be a possibility right Wyrmstring? And that is my action for round four, the swing would be round five, unless someone stops me. I will edit my post if necessary.

Topic: Inheritance -- the game
Subject: Still in bloodlust here...


Letting out a triumphant roar as his opponent fell, Almyrikon turned around searching for something else to satisfy his hunger for battle. Seeing another one of their kind standing, he charges in after it. One of his allies was already there. But they wouldn't be needed when the bearspaw joined the fight. "Alright! You're next!" He cries in a deep throaty growling voice as he charged in.

(OOC: I'm heading to the one Kannizan is currently interacting with. I am aware we're not fighting him yet, but I'm doing a bull rush on him, push him into a tree, or somewhere where he can't move. If that doesn't work, then good ol' swing at him. Also, and intimidate check would be nice. And appropriate.)

The Nagata Desert - Outskirts/Badon East entrance | Year 593 NDE

Linus lets out a long sigh. "Sadly, Taori has already spoken to you of the matter. Well, don't say I didn't give you the chance." And with that, Linus holds his tongue for the remainder of the trip.

Arriving in Badon, you enter through the east gate. As you enter, you see a woman with dark skin leaving with a man covered head to toe in a cloak. As you pass by them, you hear a faint "...Oi'm ... ... cave now."

Behind you, Linus perks up. "What? A cave? Dragons! You will rue the day that you didn't join me Achilles! I'll show you and that pompous air bag Taori! Fear me!" With that, he turns on his heel and follows the other two people. He mutters something in a harsh, guttural language, which you recognize as Draconic, he says:

"Climb from the shadows, reach to the sky.
Come dragons come, and fly, fly... and die.
Give me power, Give me life.
Cast this world, into strife.
"

The Misty Isle | Year 593 NDE

"Selunine, nobody who has left this tower has returned. That is for a reason. We have more than an ocean guarding us. Our archsages of past have woven powerful enchantments, making this island impossible to get too. You choose to stay, or you take pity on those doomed to die anyway?"

Arianna sighed. "What I have seen should not be known by those who live here. However, since you seem focused on leaving, I shall tell you. They are returning, daughter. The dragons. They will scorch the world. But we, we will survive. Do you forsake that protection to leave?"

Outside, you can see the docks in the distance, the streets between the tower and the ocean empty. A long row of boats, ranging from canoe's to massive ships. They float empty, anchored to them dock.

Badon | Year 593 NDE

"Thank ya miss! Oi can tell ya, you won't be disappointed!" The man keeps his cloak up, but you can tell that there is joy in his voice.

Morasennarion takes out her harp, and begins playing. The enchanting sound of her harps instantly makes all of the patron's drawn to her. With hoots, cheers, and drunken seduction, the patrons of the bar are very impressed by your songs. However, when Mora opens her mouth and begins to sings, she reveals the after affects of the soup, and the fatigue of the night affect her voice, and she sings many wrong notes, and slightly off key of her harp playing. However, many of the patrons are too drunk to care, so they don't notice.

By the time her performance is done, Mora had strained her voice to keep up with the patrons, but had managed to earn a fair amount of coin. Upon further inspection however, she discovered many of the coins were simple coppers, and a few silver. It was better than nothing however.

In the morning, the cloaked man was at the eastern entrance of the city. When he saw Mora, he said "Hey! Thank for the night eh? Oi quite like that nice inn. Hector - that's 'is name? - he's a nice guy. Oi think Oi might do the same thing as you do, perform for a bar. Nice way to make coin. Anyways, follow me. Oi'm leading you to that cave now."

A short walk lead to the mouth of an immense cave. Inside, you can see a faint glow. Now sound emanates from the cave, no matter how hard you strain your ears.

Outside Badon | Year 36 DE

"Gogh eh? Alright Gogh, good to have your company."

John pulled back a small door in the floor of his house. Reaching in, he pulled out a bucket. Dipping a glass in, he offers Gnurk-Ogh a glass of water. "Sorry I don't have anything else. Money's slim. I don't drink much anyway. I usually spend my money on other things, not too much food or drink. But for guests it's a special occasion.

"Me? Well, I'm not too interesting. I'm just an old soldier who gave up his weapons and took a life devoted to being poor. Others can benefit from my money more than I can. I till my own fields, and plant my own seeds. It's a good life."

"Also, city folk recently have their head in the clouds. Something about a nearby cave. I never found the interest. Maybe and adventurer could gain something from going there? Of course, I don't mean to force you. If you're in need of speed, then don't worry about it. Probably some goose chase anyway."

The Nagata Desert - Outskirts| Year 593 NDE

"Who are you Achilles? At the moment, nothing. However, with the power of the dragons, you could be anyone. It would be entirely up to you to choose who lives and who dies. You could rule the world with an iron grip!"

Grumbling loudly, Linus says, "Don't think about Taori. I went to him first. But he didn't approve. So he misses out. Don't you wish you could overtake him? Be his master instead?"

"Dragons are tools. Smart tools, and powerful tools, but tools. Under my direction, you could also learn how to harness their energy, and make it your own. When your dragon dies, steal it's remaining soul, and absorb its power." A wicked grin comes over his face. "The ancient ones, those who were thought to be gone... they will give you their power, making you invincible! Well, me too. Of course."

The Grand Prairie | Year 593 NDE

The little boy looked up smiling, his eyes shining bright with admiration. He clearly wasn't expecting a reply. "Me sir? Oh, uh, my name's Roy! Wow sir! Your armor is really shiny! Are you an angel? Why is an angel coming here? Was that other guy an angel too?"

From the side of the road, a woman's voice says, "Roy! Come here! Get out of the man's way!" A woman runs up, her indigo hair falling around her shoulder's. At her hip, a long slender blade hangs from her hip to her ankles. A simple dress covers her from head to toe, with simple bracers on her forearms. "I'm sorry for the trouble my boy has caused." She says apologetically. "One second, we'll be on our way..." She tries to pull the boy away, but Roy refuses to move, staring into your eyes with childhood innocence."

"So am I. I only fear of how she may abuse that privilege. And I wonder what kind of effect Kitten is going to have on her. That won't be good for me."
