11:57, Today: Henal Longgrass rolled 41 using 1d100.  Pow x5.


11:58, Today: Henal Longgrass rolled 25 using 1d100.  prax lore.

Two passes

Pink?!

Way too sissy for darktongue, you mean Purple!

12:08, Today: Ohanzee Shappa rolled 72 using 1d100.  POW x5 - Fear.
12:08, Today: Ohanzee Shappa rolled 18 using 1d100.  Disorder rune - ZZ stealing Winter Sun's fire.

So I know that he stole fire and that makes me very afraid!

Today: Temush Blinking-cloud rolled 62 using 1d100.  Sky/Fire Rune. Failed, apparently it is still to come as a nasty shock to me...

Failed my POW roll. I'm not committing anyone to any course of action - away again next week although might occasionally get chance to post via the 'phone.

In reply to Ohanzee Shappa (msg # 888):

That'll teach me to not check by doing :)

I know some suns make a thing of taking the hits and putting themselves back together afterwards, but in this instance I'm leaning to following Melock's run into delayed danger. Let's see what Vinga does.

Ohanzee has a very scientific spell checker

Definition of enol. : an organic compound that contains a hydroxyl group bonded to a carbon atom having a double bond and that is usually characterized by the grouping C=C(OH)

I'll allow those who died to re roll their Pow rolls if they failed.

08:11, Today: Amara Brightsky rolled 48 using 1d100.  POW X5.
I passed....thank the heavens for that!

You know those times when you think as a player....uh oh, what have I gotten my character into....this is one of those times for me.

Surely a javelin to the eye would be epic here?

In reply to Amara Brightsky (msg # 895):

At least Amara is a fighter.

Yeah, a javelin to the eye would be epic, but an axe fight with no armour even more epic....

Thank heavens for mobility rune which might make it harder to hit me.


Edit: A javelin to the eye might be a little anticlimactic too.....

In reply to Amara Brightsky (msg # 898):

I'll take anticlimactic over dying any day of the week :)

It makes me think of that cool fight with Achilles vs that giant of a man at the start of the Troy film.

All right, I'll reedit to stick him with a giant javelin....it is my signature weapon....

Mobility rune, Earth Rune and your javelin skill. Magic will help. You only need to roll your javelin to hit, but the others will help as will the actual IC post. Bad dude get's a Darkness rune roll.

17:20, Today: Ohanzee Shappa rolled 62 using 1d100.  POW x5 - Re-roll of the dead.

Better, but I'm still running.

@Amara, did you eat the fungus that I brought back for you, the gift from Mee Vorala?

yes I did

msg 575

looks like my update to stick him with a javelin will be in around an hour

POW reroll also failed. My post stands. Malila's curse upon that die roller today.

Ah I missed that, would have responded then had I noticed. Suffice to say that Ohanzee would have sniggered at least a little and not met your gaze since then. This is why...

Bulbous Bark:

A very rare fungus used by black elves when they must go to war. It makes the skin swell and bloat, but with the result that it provides cushioning armour against crushing weapons and against edged weapons seals the cuts so bleeding does not occur.

I never thought about how long it lasts or exactly how much damage it absorbs :)

Hmmm.....yes, you will indeed pay for this.

In my mind it is like the cheese scene from Boxtrolls... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz2OwX1XETQ

Though of course you aren't at all like the boss....

@Hoskar is the large henchman in the middle, I'm the short one with glasses :)

Yeah, Ohanzee, trollkin are enlo, not enol.



I was wondering about that - whether Amara had been able to pick up armour before entering the mound.  Entering the Underworld to hunt trolls with no armour is the definition of bravery (or recklessness  :P  )

I've added a post to the House Rules thread about language colours:

Hope that's okay.  Seemed the best place to put it (that I could find).
