Re: Wrath of the Feywild
In response to what Hoal says, Erolant telepaths, "We bodiless have ascended beyond melee combat."
May gives Erolant a look with furrowed brows, "You've ascended beyond having fun? Sounds like a descent to me."
Erolant telepaths, "We bodiless have ascended beyond such simple things being considered "fun". What I would consider fun would probably confuse you."
Moses says, "Enough of that, Erolant. Don't tell them what you don't do. Tell them what you do."
Erolant telepaths, "Very well. As a bodiless, I have shed my physical form as it was like a fifth wheel. I am capable of taking over minds, whether by possessing people or simply willing it from a distance. I can create illusions, of course, but I can also cause my psionic power to manifest into a solid object, be it a tool or weapon. But those are just simply what you physical sorts might call "powers". I would be more inclined to believe my usefulness lies more in my pure intellectual capabilities. Problem solving, learning, planning... those sorts of things come much easier to me than they would, say, to the rest of you." (OOC: No really... you can't build this guy by 4th edition rules. "Bodiless" are actually from 3.5.)
Quelenna says, "Interesting abilities, Erolant. Rather presumptious to say you're smarter than the rest of us. But the proof will be in the future course of events. As for what I do? I guess I'll come out and say it: I'm a Blood Mage. I know some of the secrets of using pain and blood to cause strong magics to manifest. While I am just as much an intellectual as the next wizard, my magic may cause people to think me a brute due to it being focused on maximizing offense." (OOC: Her list of spells are Cantrips, Winged Horde, Nightmare Eruption, Burning Hands, Flaming Sphere, Arcane Whirlwind, Mystical Debris, Float, Arcane Bolt, Scorching Burst, and Fey Step from being an Eladrin. At least, according to her Character Builder entry on my laptop, which has her at level 3.)
May says, "I like weapons of all kinds and seem to have a knack for picking up and learning how to use anything I get my hands on as a weapon. I believe in versatility, so I just do a little bit of everything rather than focus on one thing. For example; some fighters like focusing on one kind of weapon. Others like focusing on defense. Still others like to focus on footwork and repositioning; often those types use nets and stuff. But I wanna learn how to use every weapon there is and use them for the purpose they were designed for. For the time being, if one were to peg me as having one focus, it's to make the enemy pay attention to me instead of my allies so my allies will be safe. But I think that's more a matter of engagement rather than technique." (OOC: You all know what's under her hood. Arena fighter. Mechanically speaking, though, she has some things that take advantage of her using a shield. But in the end, May really is an "everything" fighter)
Mara-Kai says, "I and my brother Hoal studied together. Everything I can do, he can do better. But as a water soul, I can become somewhat fluid in my movements for brief moments and I can breathe under water. I'm sure as Hoal and I progress, though, there is a chance our abilities will vary, even if slightly." (OOC: Her Character Builder entry is level 1. But fyi, she has Aegis of Assault, Greenflame Blade, Sword Burst, Flame Cyclone, and Burning Blade. The literal exact suggested powers for Assault Swordmage.)
Moses says, "I am a warrior like May. But I am one of those specialists she mentioned who focuses on the spear. As such, sadly, a shield would be cumbersome for me when wielding my favored weapon." he looks at Rebecca.
Rebecca says, "I am no combatant. But I know medicine and can run fast. So I will be able to tend to your wounds or illnesses, but will also be able to scout ahead for you and return with swiftness."
May says, "Wow! What a team!"
