In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 348):

Clarence throws the dagger away and grabs the crossbow bolt, trying to pull it out next.

[Private to GM: Rolled ST exactly to pull that out.]

"We shall see what happens when I heal him after that. If he survives, then that is good. But if he dies, then it may be that his god has called him to attend them."
Nodwin cocks his head to the side.
"Another possiblity is that if this was started by a malicious power, then they may find his failure as a reason to ensure he departs this plane, leaving no living evidence of their interference."

In reply to Nodwin Zideqick (msg # 350):

Only the probe and the not-arrow remain, he seems barely conscious.

Jareth just lays there, probably trying to catch up on lost z's.




OOC:  02:44, Today: Jareth Mooncalled rolled 11 using 3d6.  HT 10 roll versus Stun.

Mario readies the arrow from his quiver (where it is instantly replaced), and stabs once more.

[Private to GM: 05:06, Today: Mario Crowfoot rolled 8 using 3d6.  Fast Draw (Arrow) (15).
05:06, Today: Mario Crowfoot rolled 11 using 3d6.  DX to stab with arrow (13 + unknown bonus for restrained target).]

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 353):

He seems a little less feeble, only the surgical probe remains.

Brodak grabs the probe and tries to pull it free...



[Private to GM: 20:26, Today: Brodak rolled 11 using 3d6.  ST.  By 4]

Mario pulls his single arrow again, and once more stabs the wounded man with it.

[Private to GM: 04:55, Today: Mario Crowfoot rolled 10 using 3d6.  Fast Draw (Arrow) (15).
04:55, Today: Mario Crowfoot rolled 5 using 3d6.  DX to stab with arrow (13 + unknown bonus for restrained target).
Each arrow lasts one minute after being drawn from the Cornucopia quiver, so should be three copies stuck in the man now.]

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 356):

And just in time! with the probe out, he looked about to pass out. Now he has about a minute before the arrows fade...

After a few seconds of lying about, counting birds and stars, Jareth sits up holding his head.

"Ah, good.  Let him be Mario, lessee happen when t'e arrow fades."

"I'm with you."  Mario addresses the wounded man.  "You holding up okay?"

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 359):

The perforated and bloodied fellow is still paralized, but appears to be moving his eyes, which are tracking between the both of you, and seem to have some comprehension to them.

Jareth gets up, retrieves his probe from Brodak, and approaches the wounded man.

"T'e damage rejuvenates ya without seeminly healin ya.  Ya ken what'll happen when t'e arrows fade?  Will that be liken t'em being yanked out?"

"I don't think he can talk.  Ymid's magic worked on his mouth, too."

Mario continues to watch the man's condition, waiting for the first of the three arrows to fade.

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 362):

Clarence does not really understand what is going on, but watches with interest in case he is needed.

Jareth gives the wounded man a second to respond, and when he doesn't he says to him, "Yer eyes can track, look left for no, an right for yes t'en?"

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 364):

His eyes stare straight ahead, then flick to the right.

Jareth fires off several questions waiting for him to respond between each...

"Do ya want t'e curse lifted?"

"When t'e arrow fade, will cause more hurt to ya?"

"Can ya talk if ain't paralyzed?"

In reply to Jareth Mooncalled (msg # 366):

"Do you wish to know what he is thinking, or him unparalyzed?"

"Let's go with hearin t'e thoughts.  That's probably safer..."

Mario watches the man's eyes as Jareth asks his questions, and moves his hand from the fletching of the arrow in his quiver, to that of the first one he stabbed into the man's flesh -- waiting for that arrow to vanish.

In reply to Mario Crowfoot (msg # 369):

Your minds are suddenly filled with the jumbled, chaotic and violent thoughts of the wounded man, who it seems, lost his mind some time ago.
It is with greater misfortune that you experience this filtered by the Ymid's point of view.


Fright checks all, at -1

In reply to Ymid (msg # 370):

"Arrgh"

Clarence shakes his head, as if trying to remove something that should not be in there.

[Private to GM: Rolled exactly my fright check (10 +2 Fearlessness), rolled 12, so with the -1 a fail?]

Jocelyn looks at the poor man and shakes her head wit a look of distaste on her face.

Brodak rips his helmet off and shakes his head as if it was ful of something bad... Ugh! mess!
He then pulls his shield up and backs away


[Private to GM: Either even or failed by one...]
