The camp has been bustling busily the last couple of days. It seems as though no one has been able to sit still with the energy in the air, after so much action even a small amount of peace is unsettling. Its effects are beginning to show all around as Mario for one has taken up pacing again. Quinn has bit his nails at points where nothing is going on Ect Ect.
At about dusk, after everyones buisness is done and through the group finds themselves all at the camp a rare moment in recent days for everyone to be back. Joe, Fred, Black, and Ray left but minutes ago and seemingly are returning already...

As the group returns and begins to spread the news of recent events Black will seek out Marshall to inform him.
"Yo dude, plot just took it up a mega-notch. After some loot and some fights we found this message urging us to get everyone back to this cave place a couple of us found a spirit in, apparently the message leaver was the one who made our place safe...and whoever's magic is running out.
It won't be safe for much longer"

Fred seems to be more root-covered than ever as he returns, and a new (if not especially ostentatious) ring adorns his finger. "On the plus side, we did indeed find a magic carpet. But yes, we must move on and go to where whomever found Sylph... found Sylph."

*In a mocking Sergs voice, from RvB*
"Everyone we have a mission ahead of us, we need to gather at a new local and meet the one who gave us this place of bliss. On the journey to meet our new mysterious stranger we will face perilous plot twists and turns. *looks at David and winks at him* So be ready for anything and prepare for the worst my comrades. HOORAH!"

"Finally!" Fred then returns to his normally scheduled calm drawl. "Let us make sure to pick up any trash and mess, get everything we can into the land train, and leave without forgetting anything."

"I agree." Fred puts his money where his mouth is and gathers all of the items of value, loading them into the land train.

"Indeed, as our numbers grow however, we may want to think about improving the land training or getting our own vehicles" joe says as he helps secure the land train.

Another one when black and Marshall got attacked. Plus an additional bike when Casey reached the camp.
Mario and Quinn quickly pack up and get the rest of the stuff on the train.
OOG: waiting for everyone to post that there here.

"my car has been on the land train this entire time, it may not be in good shape, but it works, and if needed i can use that" Brian moves to get in the train, "but my preference is the safety of the train and the company of my comrades"

It won't be safe for much longer" "I see what you mean. It looks like everyone is already packing up. We should too. But before we do, I wanted to show you something I've been reading." Marshall grabs the bag he's always carrying around and pulls a tattered old book with no cover or name. "Have a look at this." He flips to a page with a sketched picture and some handwritten notes. "I found this book on a side quest, and it got me thinking. The last accounts of someone owning this were of a young boy, but I think it's been missing for awhile. I'm thinking about looking for it. I'm thinking about trying to collect the Millenium Items." |

Black looks from the pages of the book to Marshal, eyebrow raised and face in a quizzical stance.
"Millennium items?...the person who wrote in this book had something to do with them?"
I suppose I shouldn't be surprised with what else exists...wonder if ka and ba exist too Black thinks, flashing back to what little of the ancient Egyptian arc of the Yu-Gi-Oh manga he had read long ago.

"Millenium Items, perhaps in the vein of items produced by the Millenium Trees? Or items produced in the millenium of 2000 AD, 1000 AD, 0 AD, 1000 BC, 2000 BC..."

OOG: were mostly waiting on Joe to not be in Ireland so that he can post too. So we will just go slow for now or something.
IG: An earth piercing dragon cry is enough to signal its time to leave. The group manages to get onto the land train despite the group being much larger than it was when people got there. The train sets off towards the mountain of sylphs former prison. The land train is quiet for a moment for you cannot see the dragon. However you begin to feel its assault on you as it hammers away with curses while still remaining out of sight. Everyone feels there bodies weaken under the mystical assault.
The following statuses have been applied to the party.
brain down (halves int)
defense down (halves vitality, nulls hyper density and natural armor)
dexterity down (halves dexterity)
exhaustion (fighting, moving, and taking reactions all cost 1 luminarium additional luminarium costs for abilities are doubled)
poison (one luminarium damage each turn)
power down (halves strength, ki, and magic)
slow (halves speed, nulls auto dodge)
note that you round down for all the halves.
Its your turns but note you still cant see it yet.
1 damage to each of you from poison kicks in at the start of your turn.

Fuck.
EDIT : Now that I've had my fun I'll post my real action.
-----------------------------
As Black emerges from the lazarus he finds himself just in time to receive the many curses that the dragon chooses to rain down upon them. Fatigues and disturbances abound, and to do so so soon after tasting the brink of death noticeably effect Black...but in a different sense.
While he reels from the pain, the exhaustion, the confusion, his body tenses defiantly. His skin darkens. Suddenly eyes spring forth from his skin! All over his body!
"I thought I told you....YOU CANNOT HIDE FROM ME!" Black roars. Veins rippling and popping across his skin as the many eyes that cover him turn a silvery white. Moving independent from one another.
And you shall find me difficult to kill as well Black scowls, scanning for the dragons true location with his Byakugan.

Can we not see it yet due to the fact that we're inside the land train, or because it is apparently invisible, or due to darkness? (As near as we can tell).

Brian, dividing a negative number by two would make you less ugly.
Another question that occurs: What can my Kurama plant healing do for these status effects?

Post by GM on Apr 7, 2009 20:42:55 GMT -5
its just not around yet, seems its using really long range non line of sight debuffs to weaken you first. Seems after getting its ass kicked last time its trying to play this one a little different.
Your plant healing could make a medicine for the poision or exhaustion but that would take 10 minutes which is quite a lot of rounds.
Black and Brians actual actions?

Raymond kneels down on one knee and closes his eyes and interlaces his hands and places them in front of his face.
"Gruumsh god of the powerful and bloodthirsty Orcs, please hear my call in this time of need. I ask for your guidance and protection. Please remove all our ailments and protect us with your divine powers from further harm. I also ask that you guide our blows to be deadly ones. Gruumsh please hear you loyal paladin and lend a hand."

Now that the debuff issue is being solved, Fred reasons using the predictive ability that Kurama taught him that it's likely that the dragon will turn to hiding and summoning monsters or otherwise attacking from a distance before it sweeps in for the kill. Given that, he and his wolverine hold action and prepare energy to deal with whatever the dragon summons. Depending on what happens next, Fred's most likely moves are to use Starfire on a strong target or summon the Ojigi immediately after the enemies appear to surprise them.
