Bata, you've been trained in the way of demons and the inner hatred of people and society, you are a reaver, with your use of instant spells you've become well known in Caer gothwaite, the castle overlooking Gothwaite harbor, and the rest of Avalon. You leave your training with Sharas Charr, an inconnu reaver trainer in the back of Caer gothwaite, its rather odd to see a troll in avalon, but its not unheard of as you travel back to your home in the harbor a few childeren play with a yellow orb of light, throwing it to eachother.
you descend the long foot-printed hill down to the harbor and look at the gourgeous scenery, there are a few lakes to the north, the ocean to the south, and the harbor to the west, it is in sight, and you see the familiar portal that leads to the mainland in cotswold, the town on the outskirts of fair camelot, where Aurthur once ruled. As you enter the town, you see a boat trailing off into the distance, it seems some people want to visit atlantis. But your vision is soon obscured by a Stout Firblog who walks by carrying a sack that clanks with each step, he wears a rapier at his belt and smiles at you as he walks by you glance up a northern dirt road and see a Shar woman on a horse slowly trotting into town with smaller one holding onto her from her back.
You don't quite make it home before a Kobold stops in front of you and asks "you want to make a little money?"

The foul-tempered troll just sneers at the Firbolg and mumbles when he sees the Shar. At the approach of the Kobold, Bata growls. "I don't really care about money, little ugly lizard, but why not, I'm bored."

Bata growls. "How would I be discrete? Not killing all of them?"

the Kobold shrugs and walks off saying ''not my problem anymore''

Bata laughs. If the nature wardens do indeed end up having a problem, it will be the Kobold who suffers.
OOG: Does Bata know where the tavern is?

OOG: yes, you do, you know the town very very well seeing as you lived there much of your life for training at Arawn's church (in case you or anyone reading this hasn't picked up yet... Arawn is the death god)
well, i'm assuming you desceided to go to the lakes to hunt for some slime seeing as you didn't post that action
as your small hike comes to an end you see the lake and inside are about two dozen brown globs weaving in between one another trying to grab insects to eat, they see you but dont seem to care

OOG: I am indeed doing that.
Bata smiles and surveills the landscape to see if there are any nature wardens in range of sight.

As far as Bata knows, if he attacks one of the slimes will the rest join in? And if so, could he handle a large group like that?

have more faith in yourself... and besides, i wouldn't put you on a quest you couldnt finish...
anyway, one notices you and ATTACKS! and is joined by 100 level 30 warden/Druids that get airdroped from a chinook helicopter and flinging bits and pieces of others who dare cross the ESORTH (Elite Squad Of Raging Tree Huggers)
naw, just kidding, the slimes are so stupid they wouldn't feel pain untill 3 seconds after initial contact, let alone help each other, and with no nature-ish people around, what have you to lose? besides, hey... is that a DARK MATTER CUBE IN YOUR PANTS?? just kidding

I'm just being careful. If they were like that, I'd distract or lure one away. As it is, Bata begins to swing his scythe at each in turn, killing every one he can get his blade into, not even considering this worthy of his magic.

well, its a giant ball and chain, not scythe, only valewalkers get scythes (that they can specialize into)
and your ball bashes into them, splatting a few, crushing some more, thier jiuces clingint to your weapon, you find a great wealth of thier nucleuses to take back to the tavern keeper
OOG: i was planning to have you finish the quest and be near level up upon completing it, but since you killed more than just 3, guess what! your lvl 2 before finishing quest and you get three points to distribute to yer skills and i think since your a support class you get 8 points to put into stats... and does your ball & chain counts as a flexable weapon or a crushing weapon? because there is a difference what skills you get? either way, tell me the points you distribute

Oh yeah, me idiot, ball and chain, durrrh. I love the ball and chain.
I'd like it to be a spiked ball and chain, that combines flexible, spike and crushing damage. What would that be closest to? One point will go to Soulrending, definitely. Another into the weapon type.
Bata gathers the nucleuses, laughing and saying, "Squishy little things.", then walks back to the tavern carrying them subtly in his pack. He may not be the brightest, but he doesn't show killed creatures around where any nature warden can see it.

as you enter the building, the light pours in and some rough looking patrons squint to see who it is the Kobold exclaims through a puff of smoke ''you've returned! good! now i wont have to worry!'' he takes you closer as to speak buisness without yelling across the room he asks "where are the little bastards? did you bring them?"

Bata growls and says, "Backroom. Yes." He stares back at the onlookers as if to challenge them to ask what he has.

as you go into the back room he asks you once more, did you bring them?

In lieu of an answer, Bata dumps them on the table unceremoniously and grins devilishly.

"good! and your reward'll be a discount at my tavern! for you see" the Kobold opens his arms to emphisize his point, "you said money wasn't your aim" And at that he'll attempt to walk out the door (leaving room for you to stop him if you so wish)

Post by Frederic Bourgault-Christie on Sept 15, 2006 18:35:12 GMT -5
Bata laughs and puts his foot in front of the kobold. "Money is not my aim, but neither is booze and rest. The discount will suffice for half. What will you provide me for the rest?"

Bata chuckles. "My, won't the nature wardens be desperately surprised when I turn up and inform them of an accidental slaughtering I committed under your guidance..."

"heh, they've been pissed at me for awhile, i'm not afraid of them, besides, they're just a bunch of weaklings, why am i telling you this? gerrouta way." then he'll nibley hop onto the wall opposite the door, spring over you and out the room and tend to his duties elsewhere

Bata chuckles. He has more information and a tavern's discount. Not bad. He heads off for more adventure.

as you leave the tavern you see the familiar portal to cotswold and a shiny-armored Briton step into it and disapear.
"Stop! Thief!" an old magus woman yells, you see a saracen running towards you with a purse that matches the old womans robes

Post by Frederic Bourgault-Christie on Sept 16, 2006 17:38:06 GMT -5
Bata attempts to use his morning star to smash the oncoming foe down. He is simply angry, and could care less about the magus woman, though perhaps she might have some skills of use.

two things, #1 PICK YOUR FREAKIN' WEAPON ALREADY! morningstars are different from ball and chains which are different from spiked ball and chain morningstar = rigid stick with spiked ball on tip
#2 the saracen dodge-rolls out of the way and continues running, he then jumps into an alleyway (that your too fat to fit into) and gets away...the old woman looks more pissed than anyone you've seen in the passed years and casts a spell, speeds off faster than you could ever hope to sprint and returns with her bag and glances to you "thanks for the help, but you could hurt someone swinging that thing around"

Bata does think it is time to head home, much as he hates to admit it. He strides off, grumbling under his breath.
