(8:31:39 PM) You have just entered room "legunda1."
(8:31:43 PM) TheWaiChibiAngel has entered the room.
(8:31:44 PM) SongstressEnlil has entered the room.
(8:31:47 PM) OMG Priam has entered the room.
(8:31:51 PM) CGNakibe has entered the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:32:01 PM): *HM!*
SongstressEnlil (8:32:20 PM): *Tick*
CGNakibe (8:32:38 PM): *BOOM*
Idran1701 (8:33:00 PM): Waiting for Bes to accept the invite right now. :O
SongstressEnlil (8:33:03 PM): *Your illplaced explosion has fixed nothing!*
Idran1701 (8:33:09 PM): While we wait; any last minute questions?
OMG Priam (8:33:13 PM): This is Neb's text!
CGNakibe (8:33:17 PM): Explosions are rarely meant to FIX anything.
SongstressEnlil (8:33:25 PM): *Explosion fix everything*
OMG Priam (8:33:28 PM): This is Priam's!
OMG Priam (8:34:15 PM): Yes! Are you ready for glory?!
CGNakibe (8:35:09 PM): These hands.... these hands cause only destruction...
Idran1701 (8:35:18 PM): And to remind people that have pre-game knowledge of each other's characters, in case you've forgotten in the interim:
(8:35:40 PM) OMG Priam has left the room.
Idran1701 (8:35:45 PM): Karl (Pervy's character) and Klaus (Bes's character) know each other fairly well. Karl knows of Arian (Shaun's character), and Lilium (Shini's
character) is currently in the employ of Arian.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:36:11 PM): (Haha, Kalus.)
SongstressEnlil (8:36:11 PM): *Roit*
(8:36:31 PM) OMG Priam has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:36:33 PM): *Does he know how to use a forklift?*
SongstressEnlil (8:36:49 PM): *He could teach Tareen!*
SongstressEnlil (8:36:57 PM): *She clearly doesn't know*
(8:36:58 PM) OMG Priam has entered the room.
OMG Priam (8:37:15 PM): Now, what was that last part?
Idran1701 (8:37:37 PM): Just a reminder for those characters that know each other before things start.
Idran1701 (8:37:50 PM): Since both of your characters are foreign travelers, not an issue for you two.
Idran1701 (8:38:23 PM): Someone else mind poking Bes as well?
OMG Priam (8:38:37 PM): I SHALL TAKE UPON MYSELF THIS RIGHTEOUS QUEST
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:38:43 PM): *Too late.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:38:44 PM): *:Wins:*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:38:51 PM): *Also, for those who care:*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:39:08 PM): *My new car will be called Leviathan. Sometimes Leviathan Prometheius.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:39:16 PM): *Why? Because it's big, it's blue, and it's like driving a fish.*
OMG Priam (8:39:23 PM): .....
Idran1701 (8:39:34 PM): Is it going to be Shini-2, in the tradition of the Ectomobiles?
SongstressEnlil (8:39:34 PM): *I'll call it Bass*
OMG Priam (8:39:35 PM): Does it have frozen nads?
CGNakibe (8:40:05 PM): *feeds Shroemonculous cake* >.>
OMG Priam (8:40:10 PM): This is an important thing to know.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:40:11 PM): *....It might be, Idran.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:40:15 PM): *Schroemonculi :(*
OMG Priam (8:40:27 PM): You mean that there's more than one?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:40:54 PM): *There might be.*
OMG Priam (8:41:05 PM): Well, you DO have *two* eyes to use as spell components
SongstressEnlil (8:41:27 PM): *Well played, Priam*
Idran1701 (8:42:08 PM): I'm betting Bes's family called him away for something again. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:42:29 PM): *This does not surprise me.*
SongstressEnlil (8:42:46 PM): *Not in the least*
Idran1701 (8:43:57 PM): While we wait; the game will be starting in the village of Neudorf, just a day's hike from the eastern border of the Distortion. Karl knows this area well,
as he has lived here since retiring from the Royal University of Augsberg.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:44:39 PM): *The first letters of the four known characters names spell Kalk!*
SongstressEnlil (8:44:48 PM): *Neudorf is a great name*
Idran1701 (8:44:56 PM): Arian was called here by request of the government of Bremen of his father, who recommended him for this expedition, hoping it'd do some good for
him.
CGNakibe (8:45:39 PM): Heh.
Idran1701 (8:47:53 PM): Before leaving, he arranged to hire a member of the Order of Tivana, an elite organization of defenders, as some extra muscle for the mission.
Idran1701 (8:48:04 PM): This member being Lilium.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:48:27 PM): *Remember, kids! That's a glorified term for "Bodyguard!"*
(8:48:45 PM) Besyanteo has entered the room.
Idran1701 (8:48:59 PM): Hey, Bes!
Besyanteo (8:49:02 PM): Yo
Idran1701 (8:49:10 PM): Just filling people in on the details.
Besyanteo (8:49:15 PM): Righto
SongstressEnlil (8:49:47 PM): *You are not people, and thus get no details*
SongstressEnlil (8:49:53 PM): *BUt you do get a lovely treat!*
Idran1701 (8:49:56 PM): Any last minute questions before we begin, Bes?
Besyanteo (8:50:11 PM): Cake or Death?
OMG Priam (8:50:27 PM): Cake OF Death.
Besyanteo (8:50:32 PM): You win sir!
SongstressEnlil (8:50:35 PM): *Death of Cake*
Besyanteo (8:50:38 PM): Unfortunately, your cake kills you.
SongstressEnlil (8:50:40 PM): *Damn you!*
Besyanteo (8:51:09 PM): Right:
Idran1701 (8:51:17 PM): Well, then, if everyone's ready? Neb, Priam, you two still here?
OMG Priam (8:51:26 PM): Both.
Idran1701 (8:51:36 PM): All right, then!
Idran1701 (8:51:41 PM): <First session go!>
SongstressEnlil (8:51:43 PM): <Das Uberkuhlraum!>
CGNakibe (8:52:08 PM): <Such Indignity!>
OMG Priam (8:52:11 PM): <BEHOLD THE GLITTERING MIGHT OF YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS!>
OMG Priam (8:52:21 PM): <NO>
Besyanteo (8:52:21 PM): <The End Times are upon us...>
Idran1701 (8:52:35 PM): It's a lovely spring day in the village of Neudorf. Karl has just the previous day been informed of a special request by the government of
Bremen; it appears they're actually _wanting_ his skills now.
CGNakibe (8:52:38 PM): (Did someone remember to bring their Shiny Golden Wire of Hope?)
OMG Priam (8:52:49 PM): (I left it in my other pants)
SongstressEnlil (8:53:02 PM): (These pants are in the washer)
OMG Priam (8:53:03 PM): (Don't worry, I brought extras)
Idran1701 (8:53:09 PM): Meanwhile, that afternoon, Arian arrives with his defender in the village; it's a small berg, barely fit for one of his stature.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:53:46 PM): <Beef>
Idran1701 (8:53:56 PM): Also having arrived here are two visitors from beyond Legunda; citizens of both the west and the east. What brought them both to this small
town is known only to them, but here they are.
CGNakibe (8:54:35 PM): *pulls out a handkerchief* Such a vile place. I bet the people here never rememmber to BATHE more than once a week. e.e
OMG Priam (8:55:18 PM): *Well, Mr. Snobbypants, you're just about to see a sight even more insulting to your eyes.*
OMG Priam (8:55:34 PM): *Coming down the streets is a huge hulk of a man, in an attire most strange.
Idran1701 (8:55:36 PM): As Arian arrives, Karl meets with Klaus, to discuss the meeting to occur later that day.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:55:43 PM): IM: I bet you never remember to shut your mouth more than once a week.
Besyanteo (8:55:47 PM): (*Plays WAT*)
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:56:13 PM): *Already has a hanky! OVER THE LOWER PART OF HER FACE!* I see little problem. Water isn't as easy to come by in all places.
OMG Priam (8:56:13 PM): *He is completely shirtless, wearing only a pair of crimson pants and a glistening white cape, embroidered with a gold
and red key design near the edges.*
SongstressEnlil (8:56:35 PM): Ah, Klaus! There you are. I hope the trip was not to hard?
CGNakibe (8:56:42 PM): *scoffs* I suppose they use dust to wash themselves with here, then.
Besyanteo (8:56:57 PM): *Meeting with Karl, he's chosen to go in simple town clothes today, so he appears no different especially from any other person on the
streets*
OMG Priam (8:57:10 PM): *As for his face, it's hidden by a matching mask, with only his eyes and part of his mouth peeking out.*
Besyanteo (8:57:36 PM): My Lord Brache guides me, and no ground in this land will end me before my due time.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:57:37 PM): *Hey! That bodyguard doesn't look like she'd be very good at her job. Slender and average in height, with full leather armor (Including
leggings!), and a robe...type...thing...Over that. She's got a hood, but isn't wearing it-*
OMG Priam (8:57:54 PM): *And around his waste is a belt with a massive holy symbol, designed to look like an ornate V.*
SongstressEnlil (8:57:55 PM): *As for this soul, he is an average-sized, skinny man with dark hair in a white blouse and rather nice trousers, wearing a backpack and a fine felt
hat with a feather in it*
Besyanteo (8:58:09 PM): (it never occurs to me the describe how the person themsellf looks. Arr.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:58:15 PM): *And a mask over the lower part of her face. Her hair is brown, and done up in a spikey-bun-type-thing. Oh yeah, and her eyes are green.
:(*
SongstressEnlil (8:58:28 PM): *Grins* I thought as such.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:58:29 PM): Or wait for the rain.
Idran1701 (8:58:39 PM): (Arian would also know that he's to meet with a member of the government later that day.)
Besyanteo (8:58:59 PM): And what about you? Has all gone well, drawing this near to the cursed distortion?
CGNakibe (8:59:08 PM): I SUPPOSE it will have to do for when we meet the official this afternoon.
CGNakibe (9:00:01 PM): *he adjusts his rather well decorated red and gold uniform. It was expertly tailored, sure, but he was also on the road for a good long while before
now.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:00:08 PM): One wonders why you're to meet an official here of all places.
Besyanteo (9:00:12 PM): *Klaus, for his part, is a gaunt man, with pale skin. His hair is jet black, cut short. His features are sharp, and his cheeks sallow. His eyes are
a bit sunken, but not sickly. He also keeps a thin mustache and short beard on
Besyanteo (9:00:14 PM): his chin*
SongstressEnlil (9:00:23 PM): So far, I cannot complain too much. I swear it is a little difficult to sleep, though.
CGNakibe (9:00:36 PM): Indeed. Couldn't they have found someplace more suitable for our meeting than this dusty pile of trash?
Besyanteo (9:00:45 PM): Hmm. I can understand why. *he doesn't elaborate, for now.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:00:54 PM): One man's trash is another's treasure, sir.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:01:11 PM): IM: After all, someone must love you.
Besyanteo (9:01:13 PM): (Isn't it fun shoving sunshine up peoples' asses? =D)
Besyanteo (9:01:21 PM): (Even if it's fake sunshine)
OMG Priam (9:01:29 PM): *Walks closer, before bellowing out...* Ah, excuse me, sirs and miss!
Besyanteo (9:01:52 PM): *he looks over, unsure if he's been adressed.*
SongstressEnlil (9:01:54 PM): But I suppose we can linger on such late-
SongstressEnlil (9:01:58 PM): *Glances over as well*
OMG Priam (9:02:09 PM): *Smiles, and gives them a hearty wave*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:02:19 PM): *Tenses up*
SongstressEnlil (9:02:26 PM): IM: What in the world?
OMG Priam (9:02:36 PM): I was wondering if any of you could help me! I am a bit new here, you see.
Besyanteo (9:02:37 PM): *quietly* Now what foolishness might this be...?
Besyanteo (9:02:46 PM): (bah, reverse order)
Idran1701 (9:03:07 PM): (The commotion also leads Karl to notice the surprising presence of Arian now, by the way.)
OMG Priam (9:03:10 PM): I came here on a sacred pilgramege, a mission of great importance!
OMG Priam (9:03:17 PM): ...but alas...*bows his head down mournfully*
OMG Priam (9:03:19 PM): ...I am lost.
SongstressEnlil (9:03:29 PM): *Not looking so much at the loud one.* IM: Oh dear. Not him.
CGNakibe (9:03:36 PM): I'm surprised you found your way THIS far.
SongstressEnlil (9:03:52 PM): IM: Oh yes. Him.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:03:54 PM): *Makes to subtly put herself between Weirdo McCrazypants and Snooby Jones.*
CGNakibe (9:03:54 PM): Unfortunately for YOU, I can't imagine that we could help you much with your... problem.
Besyanteo (9:04:03 PM): *his expression softens*
OMG Priam (9:04:23 PM): *Furrows his brow* ...well, you could tell me where the nearest temple is.
OMG Priam (9:04:27 PM): Surely, this is no complex thing!
CGNakibe (9:04:28 PM): Now if you'll excuse us...Lilium? >.>
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:04:33 PM): Sir?
OMG Priam (9:04:39 PM): Especially for a man of your apparent stature!
Besyanteo (9:04:40 PM): It takes a brave man to admit ignorance.
OMG Priam (9:04:51 PM): IM: ...short as it may be.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:04:52 PM): He said he didn't know how to help.
CGNakibe (9:04:58 PM): Whatever.
Besyanteo (9:05:02 PM): You might recall that before trying to throw your burden on others who are not ashamed.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:05:07 PM): He has no reason to lie.
CGNakibe (9:05:16 PM): ... fine.
Besyanteo (9:05:19 PM): *and from here on, he ignores Arian*
Besyanteo (9:05:31 PM): *looking back on the man who claimed to be 'lost'*
SongstressEnlil (9:05:46 PM): *W2Klaus* That was...rather restrained of you.
CGNakibe (9:05:52 PM): (We going his way, Idran?)
CGNakibe (9:06:04 PM): (Just wanna make sure)
OMG Priam (9:06:08 PM): *Begins to frown, not looking angry so much as a little sad*
Besyanteo (9:06:09 PM): *quietly* I have bigger fish to fry, I believe. Or at the very least,
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:06:11 PM): IM: I'm surprised he's taking that.
Besyanteo (9:06:16 PM): possibly more productive.
Idran1701 (9:06:19 PM): (A temple of Siglos happens to be where the meeting is to occur, so certainly.)
Besyanteo (9:06:29 PM): *and he heads over to the man claiming to be lost!*
SongstressEnlil (9:06:43 PM): *Walks along with Klaus, curious despite himself.*
Idran1701 (9:06:47 PM): (This isn't something they want getting out, so they're not using the village's actual government chambers.)
CGNakibe (9:06:50 PM): Well, I suppose.
CGNakibe (9:07:00 PM): Where were you headed again, peassant? >.>
Besyanteo (9:07:01 PM): Good sir. You say you are lost, and looking for the temple?
OMG Priam (9:07:12 PM): *Brightens up immediately* Yes!
OMG Priam (9:07:16 PM): Do you happen to know the way?
SongstressEnlil (9:07:33 PM): There is a temple to Lady Siglos not far from here.
OMG Priam (9:07:33 PM): And I am no mere peasant, my friend!
CGNakibe (9:07:41 PM): <.< Uh huh.
OMG Priam (9:07:41 PM): I am El-oh, really? Excellent!
CGNakibe (9:08:02 PM): I suppose I COULD guide you, considering that is where we have important business.
SongstressEnlil (9:08:03 PM): *Small grin* Shall we show you? It's on our way.
OMG Priam (9:08:09 PM): (EL O RLY? HAS COME TO SAVE US ALL)
Besyanteo (9:08:16 PM): (=P)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:08:22 PM): (He better have a twin brother.)
Besyanteo (9:08:25 PM): And we might talk along the way.
CGNakibe (9:08:26 PM): *sighs* IM: I guess we can't expect them ALL to have good sense...
SongstressEnlil (9:08:27 PM): (Does his mean he is Olcadan?)
Idran1701 (9:08:29 PM): (We can assume Kenichiro is already there and speaking with the reps, Priam?)
Besyanteo (9:08:29 PM): *still ignoring Arian.*
CGNakibe (9:08:40 PM): *starts walking* Come, Lilium.
OMG Priam (9:08:40 PM): That would be most pleasing! May the gods smile upon you all for your favor!
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:08:48 PM): *w* What caused the change of heart, sir?
Besyanteo (9:09:00 PM): *he smiles* Excellent. Karl, shall we go?
OMG Priam (9:09:02 PM): (If he knows this crew is on their way, he will wait for them so the officials do not have to speak their part twice)
SongstressEnlil (9:09:10 PM): *Nods* Let us, indeed!
Idran1701 (9:09:14 PM): (*nod* That'll do fine.)
Besyanteo (9:09:24 PM): *Back to the man!*
CGNakibe (9:09:32 PM): *w* I suppose I SHOULD help peasants, even ones as unsweet as this one... That IS my duty these days.
Besyanteo (9:09:50 PM): *And, after they've begun walking,*
OMG Priam (9:09:57 PM): Now, shall we introduce ourselves?
CGNakibe (9:10:02 PM): IM: Though I can't imagine WHY I would be sent somewhere so foul.
OMG Priam (9:10:22 PM): (To get away from you.)
Besyanteo (9:10:22 PM): *he nods* I am Klaus Vokler,
Besyanteo (9:10:31 PM): and this is my good friend, Karl.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:10:33 PM): *w* How noble. *Flatly!*
SongstressEnlil (9:10:40 PM): *Nods to Klaus*
OMG Priam (9:10:53 PM): Klaus and Karl, I am truly blessed to meet you!
Besyanteo (9:10:56 PM): *he waits patiently for the man to introdsuce himself in return*
OMG Priam (9:11:07 PM): I myself have many names, but to most, I am...
CGNakibe (9:11:18 PM): Hmph.
SongstressEnlil (9:11:25 PM): *Arcs an eyebrow toward Shirtless Mcgee*
OMG Priam (9:11:28 PM): *Raises his fist to the air* El Martillo Dorado, Maifen's Gilded Hammer!
Besyanteo (9:11:38 PM): (Is this name significant?)
Idran1701 (9:11:48 PM): (Maihen's the goddess of Justice. :O)
OMG Priam (9:11:57 PM): (..I totally meant to type Maihen there.)
OMG Priam (9:12:03 PM): (Let us pretend he said Maihen earlier.)
Besyanteo (9:12:03 PM): ...
CGNakibe (9:12:26 PM): .... IM: They must have lower standards out here in the wilds.
SongstressEnlil (9:12:30 PM): I suspected such from the emblem, goodman Martillo.
Besyanteo (9:12:31 PM): *re-evaluates the value in trying to convert a follower of Maihen to the doctine of Lord Brache*
OMG Priam (9:12:49 PM): Ah, so you have heard of my Glorious Lady!
Besyanteo (9:13:10 PM): *Or rather, one who is so very strong looking by comparison to himself*
Besyanteo (9:13:25 PM): IM: Still...
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:13:43 PM): *Walks! THough continues to impose herself between her boss and the loons.*
SongstressEnlil (9:13:57 PM): A bit. It was part of my previous occupation.
Besyanteo (9:14:00 PM): (We're tiny and toony, too.)
OMG Priam (9:14:02 PM): Oh ho ho?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:14:09 PM): *Though now that others are closer, they may notice some devices in her hands! ...If they care to look.*
Besyanteo (9:14:22 PM): *Has yet to ever actually look at her*
OMG Priam (9:14:26 PM): *Is not caring to look. It is rude to stare at a lady.*
OMG Priam (9:14:30 PM): *Unchivalrous, even.*
Idran1701 (9:14:41 PM): By now, Arian has surely noticed that Martillo is not the only peasant joining him on his journey, as Klaus and Karl appear to be heading in
the same direction.
CGNakibe (9:14:49 PM): Well, at least it seems we'll be on time.
SongstressEnlil (9:15:12 PM): I am a Questor from the Royal Academy of Ausberg. Previously, I kept a practice; since lapsed, in the realms of faith and history; as well
as...little things that my clients requested.
CGNakibe (9:15:16 PM): >.> *mutters* What is with all of these peasants? Is there a parade I haven't heard about going on?
OMG Priam (9:15:30 PM): (Just wait til you see our floats.)
CGNakibe (9:15:39 PM): (*Sends Rahan to annoy the crap out of Karl*)
OMG Priam (9:15:46 PM): How impressive! How noble!
Besyanteo (9:15:52 PM): (Klaus: Looky! *seems to have a flaot of a rotting corpse. A very graphic one.*)
CGNakibe (9:15:54 PM): *YAAAAWN*
OMG Priam (9:15:57 PM): IM: ...oh, how I have very little idea what that means!
SongstressEnlil (9:15:59 PM): *Chuckles* You are too kind.
Besyanteo (9:15:59 PM): (... Ha ha.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:16:07 PM): Perhaps they're merely going in the same direction?
CGNakibe (9:16:25 PM): *w* Well they're certainly not brigands.
CGNakibe (9:16:32 PM): *w* I doubt even THEY would be this stupid.
Besyanteo (9:16:38 PM): Tell me, sir. You say you are the "Gilded Hammer" of Maihen. Does your title have signifigance?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:16:52 PM): *w* You'd be surprised what passes for thieves these days, Sir.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:16:58 PM): IM: Some may even say the nobility...
SongstressEnlil (9:17:04 PM): *Is certainly a well-dressed brigand! Why, look at that laquered walking stick, certainly obtained at a price.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:17:12 PM): IM: But that's a basket of eggs I'm not going to touch.
Besyanteo (9:17:17 PM): (Michael: Hehehehe! *reverses theifs some coins into random pockets*)
SongstressEnlil (9:17:23 PM): (Shini's character is amusing me deeply)
OMG Priam (9:17:35 PM): Quite!
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:17:39 PM): (Lilium has my Customer Service Meanstreak.)
Besyanteo (9:17:47 PM): (=DD)
SongstressEnlil (9:17:51 PM): (*Laughs*)
Idran1701 (9:17:55 PM): (Heh.)
OMG Priam (9:17:56 PM): While it is no title of the church, it is a title of the very soul.
CGNakibe (9:18:02 PM): Yes, well.
Besyanteo (9:18:08 PM): *he raises a thick brow* Oh yes?
SongstressEnlil (9:18:12 PM): Self appointed, I take it?
CGNakibe (9:18:20 PM): I'm sure that would require more in the way of intelligence.
SongstressEnlil (9:18:33 PM): I don't recall it being an official title within the heirarchy.
OMG Priam (9:18:36 PM): For I am one of her many brave warriors, searching for both justice and glory where it can be found.
OMG Priam (9:18:48 PM): And yes, although the priest who ordained me was quite supportive of it!
Besyanteo (9:19:05 PM): Hm. *the sound is noncommital*
SongstressEnlil (9:19:07 PM): *Small grin* What then, of justice that is without glory?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:19:27 PM): I repeat my previous statement.
OMG Priam (9:19:48 PM): *Grins back* There is no such thing, my friend.
OMG Priam (9:19:59 PM): Even if others cannot see it, Blessed Maihen certainly can.
SongstressEnlil (9:20:12 PM): *Nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:20:28 PM): I ponder if they even know what they're talking about.
Besyanteo (9:20:30 PM): ... *he gives Karl a look, oh so breif.*
CGNakibe (9:20:35 PM): *broods*
CGNakibe (9:20:38 PM): I doubt it.
OMG Priam (9:20:54 PM): And what of you, good Klaus?
SongstressEnlil (9:20:57 PM): A fair answer, I suppose. *meets Klaus' glance, clearly amused*
Besyanteo (9:20:58 PM): *As though they'd just bought a stray dog thinking it was a purebred or something*
CGNakibe (9:21:12 PM): *w* .... its still damned odd that they're going this way.
Besyanteo (9:21:31 PM): Oh, my faith is in Lord Brache.
OMG Priam (9:21:44 PM): *Furrows his brow, trying to recall the name of that deity*
OMG Priam (9:21:56 PM): IM: Did Padre Santiago ever mention him?
Besyanteo (9:22:18 PM): I await the day his righteous fury will wipe clean our mistakes, and spread word of his grand plan.
Idran1701 (9:22:38 PM): (Religion check for Martillo.)
OnlineHost (9:22:45 PM): OMG Priam rolled 1 20-sided die: 18
Besyanteo (9:22:49 PM): (Nice one.)
Idran1701 (9:23:00 PM): Unfortunately, it seems his religious instruction was lacking in this area.
Besyanteo (9:23:09 PM): (... wow.)
Idran1701 (9:23:19 PM): (High = bad for proficiency checks. :O)
Besyanteo (9:23:29 PM): (... Is it? Huh. I didn't know that.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:23:36 PM): IM: I wonder if he remembers he said he was guiding them?
OMG Priam (9:23:38 PM): *Shakes his head* I am sorry to say that I am unfamiliar with him.
Idran1701 (9:23:38 PM): (2e is wacky!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:23:46 PM): IM: ...No, nobility isn't known for being particularly clever.
OMG Priam (9:23:52 PM): Perhaps you can educate me in his righteousness?
CGNakibe (9:23:56 PM): *looks over at the uninvited guests*
Besyanteo (9:24:08 PM): *he nods* I thought as much. But let no man blame you for not knowing. ... And I shall, given more time.
Besyanteo (9:24:25 PM): Dearest Karl, how long until we reach the Temple?
SongstressEnlil (9:24:44 PM): His views are quite intriguing, to say the least. And we should be there within a few minutes.
Besyanteo (9:24:55 PM): *he nods*
Idran1701 (9:25:17 PM): Indeed, the group can see it in the distance, the symbol of Siglos sparkling at the tip of its steeple.
Idran1701 (9:25:29 PM): (That symbol being an open pair of calipers pointed upwards.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:25:29 PM): Where are you to meet them, Sir?
SongstressEnlil (9:26:16 PM): (Inside or outside?)
Idran1701 (9:26:20 PM): (Inside.)
Besyanteo (9:26:36 PM): *he looks over the temple appraisingly*
OMG Priam (9:26:49 PM): Ah, here we are!
CGNakibe (9:26:54 PM): We are to go inside.
Besyanteo (9:27:02 PM): ...
Besyanteo (9:27:26 PM): *quietly to Karl* Is that pompous oaf from the streets still following us?
Idran1701 (9:27:30 PM): (One sec, be right back.)
Besyanteo (9:27:35 PM): (righto)
CGNakibe (9:27:37 PM): *turns to Martillo* Here you are. And now we must go to our business.
OMG Priam (9:27:39 PM): *There appears to be someone standing outside the temple, with a circular piece of wood tied firmly to the top of their
head. This person's dress is odd enough that their gender is indeterminate at this distance.*
SongstressEnlil (9:27:52 PM): You know, I cannot help but ponder if those are still usa- Ah, I believe so. I am certain he will be attending this meeting as well, alas.
OMG Priam (9:27:56 PM): *Looks towards him* Oh! You're still here?
SongstressEnlil (9:28:17 PM): *w* I believe I've seen him at the Academy.
Besyanteo (9:28:24 PM): *his face darkens* I see.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:28:24 PM): Am I to stay present for your meeting, or shall I wait, sir?
CGNakibe (9:28:25 PM): *frowns* Idiot.
OMG Priam (9:28:25 PM): *Claps him on the shoulder* My apologies, friend. Well, I shall not keep you from your duite.s
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:28:37 PM): *Smacks the other guys hand away*
CGNakibe (9:28:37 PM): You will stay with me, Lilium.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:28:43 PM): Hands off.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:28:51 PM): *Nods to her boss*
OMG Priam (9:28:55 PM): *Is swatted away!* I assure you, my dear lady, I meant no harm!
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:28:59 PM): Hands. Off.
CGNakibe (9:29:01 PM): *stares at where the hand touched him like something foul just got on him.*
CGNakibe (9:29:07 PM): *turns, enters the building*
CGNakibe (9:29:12 PM): Lets go.
OMG Priam (9:29:13 PM): IM: Although he could-no, no, even if he is foul, it is not your place to judge.
Besyanteo (9:29:18 PM): *debates putting something foul IN the man. But...*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:29:22 PM): *Gives Nacho Libre a warning look, then heads in*
Besyanteo (9:29:33 PM): IM: It would not serve Brache.
CGNakibe (9:29:43 PM): (Ah, the love. I can feeel it.)
SongstressEnlil (9:29:46 PM): *Notes del Woodhat with some curiosity*
Besyanteo (9:30:03 PM): *And then he follows Karl's gaze!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:30:37 PM): IM: I love my job.
OMG Priam (9:30:44 PM): *raises the board a little as one might raise up the brim of a hat as Karl approaches. He turns, and makes to enter as well,
though he waits for the rest to do so first. Also, he is now in italics.*
CGNakibe (9:30:53 PM): *looks over at Karl as he goes in* <.< Hmm...
CGNakibe (9:31:02 PM): IM: ... why does that peasant look familiar?
CGNakibe (9:31:09 PM): IM: and why would I KNOW a peasant anyway? e.e
Besyanteo (9:31:10 PM): *He follows Karl, because well, that's what he does for now.*
CGNakibe (9:31:13 PM): Feh.
OMG Priam (9:31:16 PM): *Begins to walk in, as well*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:31:18 PM): Sir?
CGNakibe (9:31:28 PM): Nothing.
SongstressEnlil (9:31:29 PM): (Waiting on knowledges from Idran)
OMG Priam (9:31:35 PM): *Quietly* Those two, so harsh. It's like the joy is sucked out.
CGNakibe (9:31:42 PM): Thought I recognized one of those peasants for a minute.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:32:12 PM): *Nods*
CGNakibe (9:32:32 PM): Either way, it is of no importance.
Idran1701 (9:34:12 PM): (Sorry, bad timing. Back!)
SongstressEnlil (9:34:31 PM): *Quietly* Klaus, have you ever seen such a hat?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:34:44 PM): Shall we, then?
OMG Priam (9:34:58 PM): *For real. It's like he took the lid off one of those giant jars and decided it was stylish.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:34:58 PM): (...That's like something Tareen would say, if she were a noble.)
CGNakibe (9:35:06 PM): Yes, lets.
Besyanteo (9:35:37 PM): *HAs he ever seen such a hat?*
Idran1701 (9:35:43 PM): The group enters, and are soon met by an acolyte within the entranceway of the church. Ah, greetings, one and all. May Siglos bless you with
knowledge. Are you here for today's services?
Idran1701 (9:35:46 PM): (Nope.)
SongstressEnlil (9:35:46 PM): *quietly* I've never seen nor read of garments such as that, either.
CGNakibe (9:35:52 PM): I'd say not.
Besyanteo (9:35:55 PM): ... *he shakes his head.
Besyanteo (9:36:09 PM): *w* Nor I, Karl.
OMG Priam (9:36:14 PM): *Okay, nevermind about the italics. Upon closer inspection, this person's long moustache indicates clearly his
Y-chromosome.*
SongstressEnlil (9:36:40 PM): *quietly* I should like to speak with this man once the meeting has finished.
SongstressEnlil (9:36:46 PM): *Heads inside!*
CGNakibe (9:36:46 PM): I HAPPEN to be here because of my duty. I am told there is business I need to atttend to.
Besyanteo (9:36:50 PM): *he grunts, which is quiet alien to him, but continues on otherwise as normal*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:36:51 PM): IM: Something about Churches makes me all...Haahahaggha.
OMG Priam (9:37:05 PM): I was hoping to talk to one of the priests, when such a time is convenient!
OMG Priam (9:37:33 PM): But I shall be glad to attend your services.
Idran1701 (9:38:08 PM): The acolyte looks to Arian. Ah, yes, of course. And the rest of you
Idran1701 (9:38:10 PM): *?
SongstressEnlil (9:38:23 PM): *Has just walked inside!*
CGNakibe (9:38:25 PM): *looks back* IM: They're STILL there?
OMG Priam (9:38:35 PM): *Gives Arian a short, sidelong glance* IM: That's one who needs to learn some proper respect!
Besyanteo (9:38:41 PM): *Still follow following*
OMG Priam (9:38:53 PM): Yes. *Man, what a deep and forcefully-spoken voice.*
SongstressEnlil (9:39:01 PM): *Wipes his feet, and leaves his walking stick by the door.*
Besyanteo (9:39:31 PM): *Having no walking stick, he simply does the former, and only very rbeifly*
Besyanteo (9:39:40 PM): (breifly* even.)
Idran1701 (9:39:48 PM): Ah, Questor Hendrick. A...pleasure to see you. You are here for the same purpose as this gentleman, correct?
Besyanteo (9:39:52 PM): *Token respect at most*
CGNakibe (9:40:06 PM): <.< Questor?
SongstressEnlil (9:40:09 PM): I believe so.
SongstressEnlil (9:40:25 PM): *Nods to Arian* And yes, I am.
CGNakibe (9:40:42 PM): .... Why do I feel I should KNOW you? >.>
SongstressEnlil (9:41:03 PM): *A small chuckle!* Well, you did attend the Academy at the same time I did.
OMG Priam (9:41:04 PM): IM: ...hmn. Perhaps Karl can teach him some.
OMG Priam (9:41:17 PM): Excuse me, I shall wait inside.
Besyanteo (9:41:24 PM): *Lets Karl take this. He's a big boy.*
OMG Priam (9:41:34 PM): *Bows briefly to the priest, before walking inside with a flourish of his cape.*
Idran1701 (9:41:38 PM): The acolyte nods to the large gentlemen, and steps aside to let him in.
CGNakibe (9:41:44 PM): Ah, yes... I vaguely recall someone like you leaving a year or so after I arrived.
SongstressEnlil (9:42:19 PM): *Nods, still grinning* Well, I didn't spend quite so much time at the tavern.
OMG Priam (9:42:25 PM): (It bears mentioning that Kenichiro was speaking to the acolyte earlier. I mean, not that I had to clarify which speaking
this is indicating, considering it consists of one word.)
Besyanteo (9:42:31 PM): *he allows a small grin*
Idran1701 (9:42:34 PM): I assume you are all together for this task, then?
Idran1701 (9:42:40 PM): (*nod* Yeah, figured.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:42:52 PM): IM: ...Hahahaha!
CGNakibe (9:43:04 PM): Together? >.> You mean you also asked for these... these... mercenaries?
Idran1701 (9:43:05 PM): He looks to Lilium and Klaus for confirmation.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:43:16 PM): *w* To be fair, sir, you too hired a guard...
Besyanteo (9:43:19 PM): *he simply nods*
OMG Priam (9:43:20 PM): (Arian: Oh dear, I do believe I have the vapors!)
OMG Priam (9:43:34 PM): (I'm getting all Verklempt)
SongstressEnlil (9:43:37 PM): Questor, good sir. Not mercenary. And yes, I believe so.
SongstressEnlil (9:43:40 PM): *To the Acolyte* Could you show us the way to Sir Kolfstrom?
Idran1701 (9:43:51 PM): Certainly. This way, please.
CGNakibe (9:43:52 PM): *w* Hmph.
CGNakibe (9:44:02 PM): *follows the acolyte*
Idran1701 (9:44:11 PM): He leads the group to a second door, leading to the priest's chambers within.
OMG Priam (9:44:32 PM): *Hey, the priest? Martillo's going to be all over that action!*
SongstressEnlil (9:44:38 PM): *Is Kenichiro coming along with the group?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:44:47 PM): *FOLLOW THAT PAYCHECK!*
Idran1701 (9:44:53 PM): They're led to a small office area, where one dressed in official-looking Bremen garb stands.
Besyanteo (9:44:57 PM): (Karl: Hat hat hat hat hat hat hat...)
OMG Priam (9:44:59 PM): *Kenichiro might have already been inside, if the acolyte allowed him in when he answered.*
Idran1701 (9:45:00 PM): (*priests')
Idran1701 (9:45:07 PM): (Sorry for the confusion, a separate chamber.)
Idran1701 (9:45:19 PM): (And no, he was waiting to let them all in at once, to make sure.)
OMG Priam (9:45:32 PM): *It becomes visible at this point that the outsider has some sort of weird metal weapon tucked into his sash. It looks like
someone forgot to finish making that trident head.*
OMG Priam (9:45:47 PM): *into the back of his sash
SongstressEnlil (9:46:13 PM): *He'll be giving the occasional highly curious glance toward Kenichiro, but saying nothing; until they come into the nobleman's presence.*
Idran1701 (9:46:25 PM): Ah, yes, glad to see you...though there's a few more than I expected.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:46:46 PM): *Is likely a shitty bodyguard, what with having no weapons. :(*
CGNakibe (9:46:50 PM): With all due respect, are you sure you NEED these other... people?
Idran1701 (9:47:00 PM): Questor Hendricks, Sir Kenichiro, you have some idea at least what this meeting is about, but I am assuming the rest of you are in the dark at the
moment.
Besyanteo (9:47:05 PM): *again, a small grin*
SongstressEnlil (9:47:12 PM): Well, let us establish what it is he wants first, Sir Arian
OMG Priam (9:47:14 PM): I am afraid I must clarify. My part here is a coincidence, for I merely came here for enlightenment.
Besyanteo (9:47:24 PM): *Aparently Arain has gone from annoying to amusing*
Idran1701 (9:47:38 PM): ...Ah, Sir Renfield. You truly are your mother's son, aren't you?
OMG Priam (9:47:38 PM): *nods, with effort but not great magnitudes of motion.*(
Idran1701 (9:48:03 PM): Yes, I am quite certain.
CGNakibe (9:48:11 PM): How could I not be? My mother DID give me much of her looks.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:48:29 PM): IM: That explains things.
Idran1701 (9:48:29 PM): And...he looks to the large, imposing figure
OMG Priam (9:48:34 PM): IM: And your foul nature, as well?
OMG Priam (9:48:46 PM): IM: I feel much sympathy for the father.
Idran1701 (9:48:53 PM): You are not here for this mission, you say?
SongstressEnlil (9:48:54 PM): IM: I wonder if it explains your fondness for public houses as well?
OMG Priam (9:49:04 PM): *Looks back* I am afraid so.
OMG Priam (9:49:26 PM): I came onto the mainland, so I may learn about the gods as to serve them better.
Besyanteo (9:49:27 PM): IM: So many jokes to make, so little oppourtunity.
Idran1701 (9:49:36 PM): Hmph. You're not a citizen?
CGNakibe (9:49:57 PM): See what I mean?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:49:57 PM): Perhaps, then, he whould be permitted to wait outside until the meeting has reached it's conclusion?
Idran1701 (9:49:58 PM): Well...I suppose you may stay and listen in that case, then. Though this is not something we wish to spread around.
OMG Priam (9:50:21 PM): No, good father. And my lips shall be sealed as tightly as the deepest sanctuary.
Idran1701 (9:50:22 PM): A fair compromise, I'd say, miss...
CGNakibe (9:50:46 PM): IM: He should not be HERE to begin with. -.-
Idran1701 (9:50:47 PM): ...Oh, I'm not a priest. I've merely been allowed to use the chambers of one for these purposes.
OMG Priam (9:50:55 PM): Ah! My apologies.
SongstressEnlil (9:51:07 PM): Perhaps we should attend to these purposes?
OMG Priam (9:51:12 PM): IM: I was wondering about the lack of vestments.
Idran1701 (9:51:17 PM): He nods. If you would wait outside, sir?
OMG Priam (9:51:24 PM): (Time of day?)
OMG Priam (9:51:33 PM): If you wish.
Idran1701 (9:51:40 PM): (Afternoon.)
OMG Priam (9:51:41 PM): *And so, he leaves.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:52:47 PM): I rarely give out my name to those outside the contract.
CGNakibe (9:53:12 PM): You may if you wish.
Besyanteo (9:53:38 PM): (... Did I miss something?)
CGNakibe (9:53:44 PM): Presuming you ARE the person who requested the services of the government.
Besyanteo (9:53:50 PM): (Chris's post looks very out of place on my screen.)
Idran1701 (9:53:54 PM): (He asked Lilium's name earlier.)
Idran1701 (9:54:03 PM): (Before Martillo left.)
Besyanteo (9:54:07 PM): (I see.)
SongstressEnlil (9:54:18 PM): (I was a bit confused as well! Thankee)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:54:30 PM): I go by Steel Mongoose in this region.
Idran1701 (9:55:17 PM): He nods. Yes, I am somewhat aware of your order, though I am afraid I do not know much about them.
SongstressEnlil (9:55:20 PM): IM: Evocative. Of what, I am not sure.
Idran1701 (9:55:36 PM): Now, then. I assume you are all aware of the military threat to our lands, led by the one who calls himself the Kazerian? With the exception of you, of
course, Sir Kenichiro.
OMG Priam (9:55:48 PM): *nods, confirmatory*
CGNakibe (9:56:02 PM): An upstart who fancies himself able to rule the masses.
SongstressEnlil (9:56:05 PM): *Nods* I have heard some things.
Besyanteo (9:56:16 PM): *he simply remains silent, waiting patiently*
Idran1701 (9:56:46 PM): He's not merely some upstart, sir Renfield. Which is largely the reason for our having called you here.
CGNakibe (9:57:14 PM): Hmph.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:57:19 PM): (Is the door closed!?)
Idran1701 (9:57:20 PM): We have been trying to keep it quiet, but...we're barely able to hold him back. At the moment, this lull in his offensive is nothing more than an apparant
absence.
Idran1701 (9:57:23 PM): (It is!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:57:31 PM): *Is positioning herself by the door!*
OMG Priam (9:57:35 PM): IM: I wonder if I will ever get accustomed to these westerners and their habit of wasting so many words.
Idran1701 (9:57:51 PM): Our intelligence says that he's left, though for what reason, we know not.
Idran1701 (9:58:21 PM): Frankly, we're at a loss. And those members of Bremen's government see little recourse against him.
SongstressEnlil (9:58:30 PM): *Nods* Do we know the origins of these forces?
Idran1701 (9:58:30 PM): However...there is something.
Idran1701 (9:58:34 PM): We do not.
Idran1701 (9:58:48 PM): His men are not from any land we are aware of, though they are human, all.
CGNakibe (9:59:02 PM): (Brb. Assume Arian continues to hate you all.)
Idran1701 (9:59:11 PM): He looks over the group for any further questions before he continues.
Besyanteo (9:59:12 PM): (easily done, good sir.
Besyanteo (9:59:14 PM): )*
OMG Priam (9:59:26 PM): (I'll glare at you in his absense.)
SongstressEnlil (9:59:41 PM): *Shakes his head*
OMG Priam (9:59:50 PM): *Is waiting for continuation before asking questions!*
Besyanteo (10:00:08 PM): *likewise*
Idran1701 (10:00:46 PM): Yes, well then...one of our councilmen, though he doesn't tend to reveal it, has a minor interest in your own field, Questor. And as such, he knows of
a rumor.
SongstressEnlil (10:01:20 PM): *Raises eyebrows slightly*
Besyanteo (10:01:31 PM): *Again, likewise*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:01:46 PM): *Stands! STOIC! But average.*
Idran1701 (10:01:47 PM): Some sort of prophecy, apparantly relating to a major military threat to "the lands of Sidol and Nadsberg".
OMG Priam (10:02:43 PM): *Hey, he kind of almost flinched for a second!*
CGNakibe (10:03:24 PM): (Back)
Idran1701 (10:03:50 PM): The details were not recorded, but the location of the prophet was.
OMG Priam (10:04:03 PM): IM: These back-asswards westerners!
CGNakibe (10:04:07 PM): Prophecy, you say? Can you really trust such... unreliable information?
Idran1701 (10:04:07 PM): ...We're at our wits end, which is the only way anyone would ever suggest this.
SongstressEnlil (10:04:27 PM): Trakainian, I assume?
Idran1701 (10:04:34 PM): Yes.
SongstressEnlil (10:04:38 PM): *Nods*
Idran1701 (10:04:54 PM): ...If we don't do something, we will be overrun within the next two years.
Idran1701 (10:05:03 PM): Maybe even less.
Idran1701 (10:05:28 PM): That is not to be revealed beyond this room, by the way.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:05:43 PM): *Shit! Is she even paying attention!?*
SongstressEnlil (10:05:54 PM): Of course.
Besyanteo (10:06:00 PM): (Lilium: *jams to her walkman*)
Idran1701 (10:06:03 PM): And now, the reason I asked the Questor and our foreign visitor here...
CGNakibe (10:06:07 PM): Hm..
Idran1701 (10:06:10 PM): ...We want you to go and recover this prophecy.
SongstressEnlil (10:06:43 PM): *Nods*
Idran1701 (10:06:58 PM): From what we can gather, the prophet lived in a small village a day or two's journey to the west.
Idran1701 (10:07:07 PM): Within the Distortion presently, of course.
SongstressEnlil (10:07:23 PM): Interesting.
Besyanteo (10:07:27 PM): *he twitches*
CGNakibe (10:07:41 PM): How far into the distortion? >.>
SongstressEnlil (10:07:44 PM): IM: So this strange man has some tie to the Distortion as well?
Besyanteo (10:07:46 PM): *and from there looks generally uncomfortable*
Idran1701 (10:07:55 PM): At least 50 miles.
CGNakibe (10:08:07 PM): Substantial.
Idran1701 (10:08:26 PM): Maybe more, maybe less. The town may have...moved since then.
Idran1701 (10:08:33 PM): And our maps are quite old.
CGNakibe (10:08:36 PM): ... or changed.
Idran1701 (10:08:47 PM): He nods.
SongstressEnlil (10:08:48 PM): Certainly a problem within Trakain's Woe.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:08:53 PM): No reliable information was found?
Idran1701 (10:09:18 PM): Information on the Empire is...scant.
CGNakibe (10:09:21 PM): (MXC still amuses.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:09:29 PM): Hmph.
Besyanteo (10:09:30 PM): (Bleh.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:09:49 PM): *To Arian* You know our policy on the Distortion, I hope?
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:10:04 PM): IM: *Cash register sounds*
Idran1701 (10:10:15 PM): All we know is the name of the prophet and his town. Sventrath of Madifor.
CGNakibe (10:10:17 PM): *sighs* Yes, yes, you will be paid accordingly.
Idran1701 (10:10:45 PM): (Int/Knowledge check for Karl to recognize the name.)
OnlineHost (10:10:55 PM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 5
SongstressEnlil (10:10:59 PM): (Swish :D)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:12:08 PM): IM: Let's see...
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:12:18 PM): IM: Double the original pay...
SongstressEnlil (10:12:23 PM): *Beforehand, his expression was curious. It seems to have hardened a bit*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:12:24 PM): IM: By however many days...
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:12:34 PM): IM: ...I wish I was better at adding this sort of thing.
Besyanteo (10:12:55 PM): *he glances at Karl breifly, but says nothing at this time*
Idran1701 (10:13:15 PM): This is obviously something we can't force on any of you.
SongstressEnlil (10:13:31 PM): I shall do my utmost, sir Kolfstrom. As a fee, I request the right of salvage to any other material that we come across.
Idran1701 (10:13:31 PM): But, for the sake of Bremen...I beseech you to agree.
(10:14:40 PM) TheWaiChibiAngel has entered the room.
(10:14:40 PM) SongstressEnlil has entered the room.
(10:14:40 PM) OMG Priam has entered the room.
(10:14:40 PM) CGNakibe has entered the room.
(10:14:40 PM) Besyanteo has entered the room.
Idran1701 (10:14:43 PM): He nods to Karl. Certainly.
CGNakibe (10:14:47 PM): (Hey, we went almost 2 hours without that happening)
Besyanteo (10:14:48 PM): (Welcome back)
Idran1701 (10:14:51 PM): (:D!)
Idran1701 (10:14:56 PM): (Thanks.)
CGNakibe (10:15:09 PM): (Yes, WB)
Idran1701 (10:15:25 PM): And the rest of you all?
Besyanteo (10:15:35 PM): *after a few moments* I will go.
OMG Priam (10:15:47 PM): *bows, and then extends a hand, presumably for a handshake.*
OMG Priam (10:15:58 PM): im: I never could remember what order in which westerners say to do this.
OMG Priam (10:16:10 PM): im: I hope this will be acceptable...
Idran1701 (10:16:33 PM): *shakes the hand* Thank you.
Idran1701 (10:16:36 PM): Sir Renfield?
CGNakibe (10:16:41 PM): Yes?
OMG Priam (10:16:43 PM): *bows again, just to be sure.*
Besyanteo (10:16:44 PM): (he answered in the affirmative)
Idran1701 (10:16:48 PM): (Ah. Scratch, then.)
Besyanteo (10:17:28 PM): (As did Lillium, right after. Whee.)
Idran1701 (10:17:44 PM): We ask that you leave as soon as you can, though we understand that you may need to prepare. Transportation will be arranged for you, as will food
and water.
SongstressEnlil (10:17:50 PM): *Nods to Klaus* I appreciate it.
Besyanteo (10:18:14 PM): *he simply nods back. It's becoming more obivous that he's not comfortable in this place*
SongstressEnlil (10:18:54 PM): (Then this happens)
CGNakibe (10:18:54 PM): Hmph. I've already got most all I need.
CGNakibe (10:19:00 PM): These others may need the day to prepare, though.
SongstressEnlil (10:19:08 PM): I can leave shortly.
Besyanteo (10:19:24 PM): I am provided for.
OMG Priam (10:19:54 PM): I am ready. *There's that voice again. Way deep for such a small guy.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:20:12 PM): *Says nothing. It's probably pretty obvious that she's as ready as she's getting.*
Idran1701 (10:20:43 PM): *nods* The sixth that left was not one of your number, correct?
OMG Priam (10:21:00 PM): (Arian: Does cannon fodder count?)
SongstressEnlil (10:21:02 PM): *Shakes his head* He is not.
Besyanteo (10:21:05 PM): ... *he loosens, and wears a thoughtful expression*
Besyanteo (10:21:10 PM): If it is no trouble,
Besyanteo (10:21:13 PM): and he will agree,
Besyanteo (10:21:23 PM): I would enjoy his further company.
CGNakibe (10:21:27 PM): Whatever.
OMG Priam (10:21:40 PM): *looks to Klaus(?), and then to the official and nods*
Idran1701 (10:21:49 PM): I cannot stop you from bringing him. Feel free.
Besyanteo (10:21:52 PM): (Yup, Klaus)
SongstressEnlil (10:21:57 PM): As would I. Certainly, he can help augment Steel Mongoose's considerable talent.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:22:22 PM): Perhaps you should be more considerate. The man said he came here to learn, not came only to be dragged into the Distortion.
Besyanteo (10:22:41 PM): And as such, should he decide not to go,
Besyanteo (10:22:47 PM): I can not force him. Please,
Besyanteo (10:22:57 PM): *with a bit of invective* do not place words in my mouth.
OMG Priam (10:23:29 PM): im: Point, Klaus.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:23:31 PM): You do such a nice job of it as is.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:23:39 PM): I'd hate to intrude on that.
Besyanteo (10:23:52 PM): *he doesn't bother replying to her.*
OMG Priam (10:23:57 PM): im: Steel Mongoose with a botched serve.
Idran1701 (10:24:48 PM): Well, then, you may depart when ready. We will gather the supplies for your trip; they should be ready within the hour.
SongstressEnlil (10:25:31 PM): Very well. *to the group* Shall we meet here again?
OMG Priam (10:25:57 PM): *Nods.* Nn.
CGNakibe (10:26:09 PM): If we must.
Besyanteo (10:26:15 PM): *evenly* I will be with you, largely.
Idran1701 (10:27:08 PM): He nods to them, and gestures that they are free to leave.
Besyanteo (10:28:13 PM): (Crickets: *chirrup*)
OMG Priam (10:28:20 PM): *bows, and does so.*
SongstressEnlil (10:28:27 PM): *Makes his way out as well.*
Besyanteo (10:28:34 PM): *and off they go!*
OMG Priam (10:28:47 PM): *Meanwhile!*
Besyanteo (10:28:57 PM): *Though, immediately on exitting, he'll be lloking for their muscular friend.*
Besyanteo (10:29:02 PM): (looking*)
CGNakibe (10:29:05 PM): *exits*
OMG Priam (10:29:06 PM): *Is sitting in the pews, paying rapt attention to the priest*
SongstressEnlil (10:29:25 PM): (Priest Nye: Science!)
OMG Priam (10:29:25 PM): *Thankfully, he's sitting near the back, so getting him should not cause much of a disturbance.*
OMG Priam (10:29:38 PM): (choir: Inertia is a property of matter!)
SongstressEnlil (10:29:43 PM): (Priest Miller: Enchantment!)
Idran1701 (10:30:00 PM): Those who listen can hear the priest speak on the virtues of logic and forethought in all manners of situations.
CGNakibe (10:30:10 PM): Lets GO.
Besyanteo (10:30:17 PM): *he walks that way at a slow, even pace*
Besyanteo (10:30:20 PM): Karl.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:30:23 PM): *Follows that paycheck!*
CGNakibe (10:30:26 PM): *starts towards where he was told the Inn would be*
SongstressEnlil (10:30:29 PM): Yes, Klaus?
Besyanteo (10:30:50 PM): I have my own reasons for being uncomfortable with the subject matter of this meeting, but...
Besyanteo (10:31:04 PM): I suspect yours differs from mine. What is troubling you?
OMG Priam (10:31:16 PM): *strides quietly up to El Mas Fina.*
Idran1701 (10:31:18 PM): The noble and his bodyguard leave the church, heading to the local traveler's respite, the Traveler's Respite.
OMG Priam (10:31:28 PM): *Looks up towards the strange man* Yes?
CGNakibe (10:31:35 PM): *snort* Not an ounce of originality either.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:31:47 PM): Sir, if I may take leave to contact my guild?
OMG Priam (10:31:55 PM): *looks him in the eye, and then turns back towards the meeting room, with a sort of yank of his head.*
OMG Priam (10:32:02 PM): im: Man, I hope he gets the idea. Thick-headed westerners...
OMG Priam (10:32:14 PM): IM: ...what a strange, strange little man.
Besyanteo (10:32:18 PM): (El Mas Fina? o_o)
CGNakibe (10:32:30 PM): Do so. Just don't take too long.
Besyanteo (10:32:35 PM): (also: bleh, distractions.)
OMG Priam (10:32:37 PM): *Is about to turn his attention back to the service when-hey, the others are out!*
OMG Priam (10:32:49 PM): *Gets up quietly, and walks to the dynamic duo Klaus and Karl.*
SongstressEnlil (10:32:49 PM): *Sighs* I know the name, my friend.
Besyanteo (10:33:07 PM): Aparently this is not a good thing.
OMG Priam (10:33:11 PM): im: Whew, this one isn't as dense as....oh no, he's stopping....
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:33:12 PM): I shall be swift. *Does a weird bow-salute thing, and begins off*
Besyanteo (10:33:28 PM): *and, at the approach of their man who would be educated...*
OMG Priam (10:33:32 PM): *stops at the door to the entry room. Stares at Con Queso from underneath that manhole cover.*
Besyanteo (10:33:38 PM): Hello once again.
OMG Priam (10:33:47 PM): Greetings! How was the meeting?
Besyanteo (10:33:58 PM): It was... enlightening.
OMG Priam (10:34:00 PM): IM: ...hmn. I wonder if that man is a mute?
SongstressEnlil (10:34:04 PM): *Nods*
Besyanteo (10:34:09 PM): I trust you are not too put out?
OMG Priam (10:34:21 PM): Oh no, I am quite fine. I have been enlightened myself!
Besyanteo (10:34:28 PM): *he nods*
OMG Priam (10:34:42 PM): *Quietly* And may I ask about the situation with that...gentlemen?
OMG Priam (10:34:50 PM): *Jerks his head towards Fu Manchu*
Idran1701 (10:34:56 PM): The Steel Mongoose heads off to write a message for her guild, as Arian waits at the inn, passing the time.
Besyanteo (10:35:07 PM): *in a similar tone* I am afraid I do no myself know.
Besyanteo (10:35:17 PM): (do not)
SongstressEnlil (10:35:24 PM): He has been asked to aid us.
OMG Priam (10:35:30 PM): I see.
Besyanteo (10:35:37 PM): ... That aside. But that does bring me to my point.
Besyanteo (10:35:57 PM): We have been asked to go on a journey, to the west.
OMG Priam (10:36:02 PM): Oh ho?
SongstressEnlil (10:36:12 PM): *Nods*
OMG Priam (10:36:17 PM): Whatfor, good sirs?
Besyanteo (10:36:32 PM): I wanted to ask you to join us. It would make it much easier to teach you of Lord Brache's ways while we travel,
Besyanteo (10:36:41 PM): and I feel that you would be a handy addition to the group.
SongstressEnlil (10:37:03 PM): A...challenging proposition, to say the least. We seek the works of a prophet shose sanity is hardly a given factor.
OMG Priam (10:37:21 PM): ...hmn. A tempting offer, in line with my sacred goals!
OMG Priam (10:37:33 PM): But why are you seeking this holy man?
SongstressEnlil (10:37:51 PM): His words may hold great value to the survival of this nation.
OMG Priam (10:37:57 PM): im: You fools! Why are you discussing this matter, which requires so much discretion, with such a boisterous figure, in
such a public place?!
Besyanteo (10:38:18 PM): *It's so hard to reprimand a man without speaking to him*
OMG Priam (10:38:41 PM): *nonetheless, he is looking rather wide-eyed at the moment!*
Besyanteo (10:38:47 PM): ...
OMG Priam (10:38:56 PM): *whispers* I think we disturbed the mute.
SongstressEnlil (10:39:06 PM): *Has not said more.*
Besyanteo (10:39:11 PM): It seems he's taken exception to our conversation.
Idran1701 (10:39:24 PM): The message is written, and dispatched, and Arian's bodyguard returns shortly.
Besyanteo (10:39:25 PM): Maybe if we went elsewhere?
SongstressEnlil (10:39:29 PM): Has he? *Glances over*
OMG Priam (10:39:31 PM): *nods sharply*
Besyanteo (10:40:03 PM): *to KArl* Unless he's realized he has an itch he cannot scratch through his thick clothing, yes,
Besyanteo (10:40:08 PM): I believe that is the case.
SongstressEnlil (10:40:27 PM): *Nods*
OMG Priam (10:40:28 PM): (Ken: IM: I wish I could remove these splinters from my forehead. ._. )
Besyanteo (10:40:30 PM): *was that a jab? It's hard to tell when it's said so matter of factly*
SongstressEnlil (10:40:46 PM): *What is Ken up to at the moment?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:41:43 PM): *Tracks down her boss!*
OMG Priam (10:41:48 PM): *his stare has softened into an eyebrow-quirk, but he is still staring at the group.*
OMG Priam (10:42:08 PM): *Whispers* So, where shall we go?
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:42:12 PM): You know our policy, I trust. Double pay per day for trips into the distortion.
CGNakibe (10:42:15 PM): Hmph. I suppose your letter-writing went as planned.
CGNakibe (10:42:18 PM): Yes, Yes I do.
Besyanteo (10:42:35 PM): Hm. Where are you stayying, Karl?
SongstressEnlil (10:43:37 PM): The only inn in this town, the Traveler's Respite. I trust you can handle our our friend Martillo, Klaus?
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:43:37 PM): I simply need to confirm. There are those who would attempt to cheat the guild.
Besyanteo (10:43:51 PM): *he nods*
SongstressEnlil (10:44:07 PM): *Nods* I would like to speak with our other companion.
Besyanteo (10:44:17 PM): (Now why do I have so much trouble with that name?)
Besyanteo (10:44:24 PM): Very well.
OMG Priam (10:44:30 PM): im: Well...I suppose at this point he has been sufficiently briefed in any case.
Besyanteo (10:44:38 PM): *he turns to Martillo* To the Traveler's Respite then?
OMG Priam (10:44:42 PM): im: The need for a side room is rendered obsolete.
CGNakibe (10:44:43 PM): ... >.> Are you saying that you would think I, Arian Renfield, son of Valdian the Fierce, would cheat you?
OMG Priam (10:44:49 PM): *steps away from where he is, and towards the exit passage.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:44:58 PM): No, sir. Not at all. Guild policy these days, you understand.
OMG Priam (10:45:12 PM): *nods back* Swiftly, so we may reach glory as soon as the gods allow!
CGNakibe (10:45:28 PM): *sips some rather expensive wine* You'll get your money. Possibly more, if I feel your reputation is well founded. At least you SEEM professional,
which is more than I expected.
Besyanteo (10:45:33 PM): *deadpan* Quite.
Besyanteo (10:45:43 PM): *And... off he goes*
SongstressEnlil (10:45:45 PM): *Makes to follow Kenichiro*
Besyanteo (10:45:48 PM): *At a nice, even pace*
OMG Priam (10:45:51 PM): *Follows after!*
Besyanteo (10:46:13 PM): (SO)
Besyanteo (10:46:28 PM): (How long till the party gets into a brawl, you think?)
CGNakibe (10:46:31 PM): *sighs as he goes through his things* I know I packed it in here somewhe... Ah.
Besyanteo (10:46:35 PM): (2 days out? =D?)
Idran1701 (10:46:38 PM): (Heh.)
OMG Priam (10:46:38 PM): (Dibs on the chair tossing!)
OMG Priam (10:46:50 PM): (Also, Priam is in brb mode for the moment.)
CGNakibe (10:47:01 PM): *pulls out a rather strange weapon. It seems to almost be as if two swords were connected into one. Ornate, unusual, and probably custom-made*
Idran1701 (10:47:10 PM): The group departs the church, allowing Klaus to feel a bit more comfortable out in the open, and soon rejoins their two compatriots in the
common area of the Respite.
OMG Priam (10:47:37 PM): (What about Martillo's recap?)
Besyanteo (10:47:39 PM): *He will go about securing himself a room. How MArtillo spends the night is entirely up to him*
CGNakibe (10:47:46 PM): I almost regret that I'll have to use this for something like this.
Besyanteo (10:47:50 PM): (Hm?)
OMG Priam (10:47:52 PM): *Martillo will be securing a room as well.*
OMG Priam (10:47:55 PM): (Nevermind.)
Besyanteo (10:48:01 PM): (Kayo.)
OMG Priam (10:48:12 PM): (Priam is back!)
Besyanteo (10:48:21 PM): (*waves*)
Besyanteo (10:48:42 PM): Well. I believe we've told you most everything important about our venture.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:48:44 PM): (Sorry. Dad.)
CGNakibe (10:48:49 PM): (My money's on 3 days, Bes)
OMG Priam (10:48:53 PM): (Stupid ceiling totally needs to stop thinking it's a waterfall)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:49:03 PM): Curious.
SongstressEnlil (10:49:08 PM): *Still moving in on Kenichiro!*
OMG Priam (10:49:10 PM): *Now that he is being followed, will stop for just a moment, and turn around, once outside the temple structure.*
Besyanteo (10:49:10 PM): But if you have questions, feel free to ask.
Besyanteo (10:49:32 PM): *one his way to his room, to examine it*
Besyanteo (10:49:36 PM): (on*)
OMG Priam (10:49:41 PM): Well, I would like more information on why we are visiting the holy prophet.
OMG Priam (10:49:53 PM): I do not think that this is a mere quest for personal enlightenment.
SongstressEnlil (10:50:02 PM): *Reaches him* We've not been properly introduced. I am an Karl Hendrick. *Offers a handshake.*
CGNakibe (10:50:06 PM): I do not honestly know why my father felt the need to request your services.
CGNakibe (10:50:17 PM): -.- But if that is his wish, I will not question his judgement.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:50:21 PM): IM: Probably because you're a boisterous idiot.
Besyanteo (10:50:39 PM): ... *closes his door behind Martillo as he enters*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:50:45 PM): It wouldn't do for you to dirty your hands dealing with brigands and highwaymen.
OMG Priam (10:50:53 PM): My apologies, Karl Hendrick. *bows, handshakes.* Hayasaka Kenichiro, you may address me as Kenichiro. *bows
again.*
OMG Priam (10:51:05 PM): *Follows after, and stands!*
CGNakibe (10:51:34 PM): *waves it off* A minor inconvenience, that.
Besyanteo (10:51:34 PM): Because the establishment has become nervous. They believe this prophecy is the key to saving this land from invaders.
SongstressEnlil (10:51:51 PM): *Shakes back!* I am curious, Kenichiro, where do you come from?
OMG Priam (10:51:58 PM): *Presuming El Martillo was present to hear Kenichiro's name, will offer his hand to him, too. And a bow.*
OMG Priam (10:52:04 PM): (Wait, nevermind.)
SongstressEnlil (10:52:08 PM): I've never heard of garb such as yours.
Besyanteo (10:52:20 PM): In short, we are...
Besyanteo (10:52:37 PM): "saving the world", after a fashion.
CGNakibe (10:52:42 PM): Although it IS interesting to see someone from the College here as well.
Idran1701 (10:52:52 PM): (Klaus: *shudders*)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:52:55 PM): You refer to that man you knew.
CGNakibe (10:53:00 PM): Yes.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:53:02 PM): Or, more correctly, knew you.
OMG Priam (10:53:04 PM): *Furrows his brows* What sort of invaders, if I may ask?
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:53:13 PM): IM: And here I thought his reputation as a jackass preceded him.
Besyanteo (10:53:16 PM): (Remind me of the name of that general?)
OMG Priam (10:53:28 PM): (The Kazerian)
OMG Priam (10:54:10 PM): Ryokugan, far to the East.
Besyanteo (10:54:11 PM): He is called the "Kaserian". I know little more than that, and that the local militia has had no luck in stopping him.
Besyanteo (10:54:26 PM): (... pretend it's spelled right. What the fuck.)
OMG Priam (10:54:39 PM): *Begins to frown* This does not sound good. Just what vile shenanigans is he plotting?
CGNakibe (10:55:02 PM): Prophecy nonsense. Of all the odd things to get caught up in..
Besyanteo (10:55:10 PM): Oh, the usual.
SongstressEnlil (10:55:11 PM): Hmm. What brings you to Bremen?
Besyanteo (10:55:27 PM): Carnage, domination, becoming despot of the known free lands and beyond.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:55:35 PM): IM: How do you think I feel? You're at the very least used to your own crap!
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:55:37 PM): *Nods* Quite.
OMG Priam (10:55:52 PM): To find better dealings with the spirits, and learn the lands. This task into the Void will bring much wisdom about the
nature of the spiritual world.
SongstressEnlil (10:56:10 PM): IM: My my my...
OMG Priam (10:56:18 PM): A darkened weed, primed to be ripped out by the fist of justice!
Besyanteo (10:56:29 PM): *deadpan* Indeed.
OMG Priam (10:56:30 PM): (You can thank Priam for that exclamation point.)
CGNakibe (10:56:34 PM): (Why am I suddenly thinking of Prince Phil?)
SongstressEnlil (10:56:36 PM): How noble!
Idran1701 (10:56:39 PM): (...I just realized, Martillo reminds me of Minsc.)
Besyanteo (10:56:47 PM): (Or Amelia.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:56:48 PM): Do you suppose the others have begun telling anyone who cares to listen of this assignment?
SongstressEnlil (10:56:49 PM): (I'm thinking of Fawful)
OMG Priam (10:56:56 PM): (I am very proud now, on all three/four counts.)
CGNakibe (10:57:04 PM): (Hehehe.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:57:08 PM): (I'm thinking Kerov.)
OMG Priam (10:57:13 PM): *Lets that one drop unresponded.*
Besyanteo (10:57:21 PM): IM: Like fishing in a barrel.
SongstressEnlil (10:57:23 PM): (Shini, them's fightin' words)
CGNakibe (10:57:24 PM): I certainly hope not.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:57:28 PM): (They sure is. Come and get me.)
CGNakibe (10:57:36 PM): But *shrugs* Who can tell WHAT those people are thinking?
SongstressEnlil (10:57:39 PM): (You'll be coming to me soon enough)
Besyanteo (10:57:39 PM): (Now now: )
OMG Priam (10:57:40 PM): (...ouch. Fucking ouch.)
Besyanteo (10:57:47 PM): (Kerov actively avoids plots.)
Besyanteo (10:58:00 PM): (I'm stringing MArtillo along jsut fine.)
OMG Priam (10:58:14 PM): (Yes you are. ._. He is a simple man, with simple desires.)
SongstressEnlil (10:58:16 PM): What have you found in our lands, thus far?
Besyanteo (10:58:24 PM): (Which is not a bad thing.)
Idran1701 (10:58:31 PM): (And what's one more?)
Besyanteo (10:58:31 PM): (Just easy to manipulate. =D)
OMG Priam (10:58:33 PM): (Like the face of justice being crushed in his hand.)
CGNakibe (10:58:36 PM): With luck the whole town won't know by morning.
Idran1701 (10:58:42 PM): (Pursue justice, stop evil, bring about the end times in a wave of psetilence.)
CGNakibe (10:58:43 PM): Either way there's nothing to be done about it now. -.-
Idran1701 (10:58:49 PM): (*pestilence)
Besyanteo (10:58:56 PM): (=D)
Besyanteo (10:59:27 PM): So, will you accompany us?
OMG Priam (10:59:34 PM): A great many things.
OMG Priam (10:59:56 PM): im: Not a whole lot of which are pleasant, but I must not bear too much harshness against things simply becase of their
novelty to me.
OMG Priam (11:00:18 PM): (ALso, I totally meant to say "face of evil". What the hell.)
Besyanteo (11:00:27 PM): (=D)
Idran1701 (11:00:32 PM): (Blame Klaus.)
OMG Priam (11:00:33 PM): So, what else do you know about this blot against the continent?
CGNakibe (11:00:45 PM): (And thus the corruption begins..)
Besyanteo (11:00:53 PM): (Klaus: Justice, wai. *Stabs it with a needle*)
SongstressEnlil (11:01:13 PM): *Nods* I would be pleased to learn of the ways of your land, when there is time. I must confess, the very knowledge of Ryokugan intrigues me.
Besyanteo (11:01:30 PM): As I said, little I am afraid. Only that short of the wrath of BRache himself coming down and ending them,
OMG Priam (11:01:35 PM): *nods as well.*
Besyanteo (11:01:40 PM): this prophecy seems to be our best hope for stopping them.
CGNakibe (11:01:56 PM): (So, are you from Clan Scorpion? >:P)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:02:00 PM): IM: I really, really hope this hour goes by faster.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:02:06 PM): *STANDS! STOIC!*
OMG Priam (11:02:09 PM): (Dragon, actually.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:02:17 PM): IM: I'm going to slice him to ribbons if I have to listen to him much longer.
OMG Priam (11:02:19 PM): (HARDCORE STANDING ACTION!)
SongstressEnlil (11:02:25 PM): In the meantime, freely ask me anything you about Bremen..
CGNakibe (11:02:25 PM): (Bah. Damn Musashi-alikes. >:{{{ )
Besyanteo (11:02:29 PM): (Tareen: *Stands like a pro!*)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:02:39 PM): (...)
OMG Priam (11:02:41 PM): (Tareen: DO I GET A RAISE IN MY ALLOWANCE NOW?!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:02:48 PM): (I just realized, I don't have as many things to play with in my car.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:02:55 PM): (Thanks for making me realize that now, Bes!)
Besyanteo (11:03:04 PM): (What are you talking about?)
Besyanteo (11:03:09 PM): (you have a huge pannel of buttons in there.)
OMG Priam (11:03:10 PM): (What, you had a miniature Tareen in your old car?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:03:11 PM): (No more glasses holder. :( )
Besyanteo (11:03:17 PM): (PFt.)
Besyanteo (11:03:22 PM): (Play with the CD changer.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:03:25 PM): (But I do have that CD changer, which is like 8 -Yes!)
OMG Priam (11:03:29 PM): So, it is up to us to scrub this vile stain against humanity away.
Besyanteo (11:03:36 PM): *he nods*
OMG Priam (11:03:53 PM): While this is a definate change in plans, it would be a grave dishonor for me to refuse!
Besyanteo (11:03:57 PM): IM: With the right direction... Oh yes, you will be an excelent follower.
OMG Priam (11:04:03 PM): What sort of man would I be to allow this injustice to fester?
CGNakibe (11:04:15 PM): (Klaus: Now taking applications for the position of "Toadie")
Besyanteo (11:04:30 PM): (Just wait till I start working the NPCs.)
OMG Priam (11:04:31 PM): (Martillo: Is it okay if I don't have three references on hand?)
OMG Priam (11:04:43 PM): (Martillo: Do I get health benefits?)
Besyanteo (11:04:57 PM): (... actually, he would.)
OMG Priam (11:04:58 PM): (Martillo: Ooh, dental!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:05:00 PM): (Lillium: Staying away from me is a health benefit.)
Besyanteo (11:05:02 PM): (But we'll get into that later.)
Idran1701 (11:05:05 PM): (And since the CI is winding down, timeskip to the departure?)
CGNakibe (11:05:08 PM): (Martillo: Do I get to wear cool suits with face-covering helms?)
SongstressEnlil (11:05:10 PM): (Sure!)
OMG Priam (11:05:29 PM): (Martillo hungers for justice! And inexpensive yet quality dining.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:05:32 PM): (Martillo: Oom oom oom...Klaus: What are you doing? Martillo: Practicing.)
OMG Priam (11:05:37 PM): (RUN, COWARD)
OMG Priam (11:05:48 PM): (Also, yes. SHINOBI -> departure)
CGNakibe (11:06:16 PM): (We will be there... now! >:D Please?)
Idran1701 (11:06:53 PM): (They leaving later that day, or the next day?)
OMG Priam (11:07:02 PM): (I was thinking the same day, everyone seemed raring to go)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:07:05 PM): (Later, I believe.)
CGNakibe (11:07:11 PM): (Same day seems like it'd work)
Besyanteo (11:07:16 PM): (Indifferent.)
SongstressEnlil (11:07:20 PM): (Same day, certainly)
Idran1701 (11:07:24 PM): (Later it is!)
Idran1701 (11:08:14 PM): Introductions and briefings having been exchanged, the party gathers an hour later, preparing to ride out into the distortion and find what
ruins of Malifor remain.
Idran1701 (11:09:23 PM): The first day goes fairly uneventfully, as they remain within the safety of Bremen.
Idran1701 (11:09:59 PM): However, by noon on the next day, the group can feel the hair on the back of their neck rise. The energy in the area is almost palpable;
they've entered the Distortion.
Besyanteo (11:10:13 PM): (CT OC ReMix: Green Amnesia. Perfect music for travelling.)
OMG Priam (11:10:41 PM): IM: Such a vile place! My spine tingles with wariness!
CGNakibe (11:10:42 PM): (Morrowind remix here. "Fear Not" )
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:10:54 PM): *Would have noted that, should anyone else seek her active service, there is paperwork that will have to be done, but there's a group deal
going on!*
CGNakibe (11:10:55 PM): ... *for once seems to be keeping his own council*
OMG Priam (11:10:56 PM): im: This power....I must guard my heart against the Taint.
CGNakibe (11:11:14 PM): IM: So THIS is what it feels like...
OMG Priam (11:11:14 PM): *will be meditating observationally, which as far as the rest of the group can see, basically means 'spacing out'*
OMG Priam (11:11:27 PM): IM: And this man...is he some sort of sacred mystic?
Besyanteo (11:11:34 PM): *He looks fairly unsettled in this place, but at the same time he tries to remain studious*
OMG Priam (11:11:37 PM): IM: Oh, if only his tongue was free! I would have so much to ask him!
Idran1701 (11:11:49 PM): They continuing travelling, and after about an hour's worth of riding, they hear thunder.
OMG Priam (11:11:59 PM): IM: Alas, he seems to be a miser with his words.
CGNakibe (11:12:09 PM): *oddly seems kind of excited about this new development*
SongstressEnlil (11:12:11 PM): *Seems to have become a great deal more stoic and inscutable*
Idran1701 (11:12:27 PM): With little warning, a downpour begins upon the group.
OMG Priam (11:12:28 PM): im: ah, a storm. Quite a mortar in which to forge my first impressions of this region.
Idran1701 (11:12:31 PM): A cloudless downpour.
CGNakibe (11:12:34 PM): IM: One does have to wonder... what sort of magic would be strong enough that even insensitives like THESE would notice it. >.>
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:12:40 PM): ...
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:12:43 PM): Well then.
SongstressEnlil (11:12:57 PM): *Praised be for that harden felt hat!*
OMG Priam (11:13:02 PM): *gets out a small piece of paper and an ink quill of an odd shape*
Besyanteo (11:13:04 PM): *oddly,*
Besyanteo (11:13:12 PM): *he seems at slightly more comfort in the rain*
SongstressEnlil (11:13:16 PM): IM: Interesting... which impulse would this be?
OMG Priam (11:13:38 PM): *begins making strangely aesthetic strokes on this small paper. Is that a letter? Or just a neat-looking scribble?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:13:49 PM): *Hood goes ON!*
OMG Priam (11:13:54 PM): IM: And such elegant holy symbols!
SongstressEnlil (11:13:58 PM): *If he can see Kenichiro, he'll look at the writing with some interest.*
OMG Priam (11:14:03 PM): IM: What strange gods he must worship.
SongstressEnlil (11:14:16 PM): IM: An interesting challenge.
SongstressEnlil (11:14:28 PM): *Then, back to the lands around them.*
CGNakibe (11:14:50 PM): *doesn't bother covering himself at this point*
Besyanteo (11:15:00 PM): (Fucking nudists.)
OMG Priam (11:15:03 PM): *Has no need for your paltry hoods, capes and hats! For he has the mask of justice!*
OMG Priam (11:15:12 PM): *Which is oddly comfortable, and soft to the skin.*
Idran1701 (11:15:13 PM): Less of a challenge than he would think, as though they can feel the water splashing upon them, they seem not to be getting wet.
SongstressEnlil (11:15:42 PM): *His lips move every so often, as though he were whispering to himself.*
SongstressEnlil (11:16:01 PM): *Holds out a hand into the rain, to observe the effects*
CGNakibe (11:16:02 PM): Hm.
OMG Priam (11:16:04 PM): *Seeing the paper unaffected by the rain, blows the ink dry, and judges it sufficient to put into a belt pouch which
others can see contains a number of other papers, with similar ink on them.*
OMG Priam (11:16:15 PM): *Looks towards Karl* Is something on your mind, friend?
Besyanteo (11:16:16 PM): *To Martillo* ... Even this, unnatural rain. It is wonderful, is it not?
Besyanteo (11:16:24 PM): (Bleh, scratch. He was talking.)
Idran1701 (11:16:35 PM): He can feel the water well enough, but it appears to be utterly resistant to soaking into any sort of material.
SongstressEnlil (11:17:00 PM): Hm! Ah, just pondering.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:17:08 PM): *Allows herself to lag a moment*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:17:12 PM): *Then speaks!*
SongstressEnlil (11:17:24 PM): *Tries to let it pool up a bit, then let it fall*
CGNakibe (11:17:25 PM): ... Definitely not normal water. *stares at a drop*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:17:29 PM): Didn't you say you went to that church to gain enlightenment?
OMG Priam (11:17:33 PM): *is watching the rain with some interest. Holds one hand out, and his other hand below it, to see if both feel the same
drop once each.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:17:35 PM): *To Martillo, that.*
OMG Priam (11:17:57 PM): *nods* Yes, but it is not the only place where the soul can be educated.
Idran1701 (11:18:15 PM): Ken does not, and the water seems to pool readily enough...though at closer examination, the drops only appear to be mixing.
Idran1701 (11:18:19 PM): They remain separate.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:18:29 PM): There is nothing to learn in this land, though, but pain.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:18:40 PM): Was that mentioned to you? Or conveniantly left out?
CGNakibe (11:18:41 PM): *idly wonders at what sort of powers it would take to fashion some strange water as this*
SongstressEnlil (11:18:41 PM): IM: Uncanny!
Besyanteo (11:18:49 PM): IM: And soon enough, I may give you a few lessons.
OMG Priam (11:18:57 PM): Ah, but we cannot ignore the darkness in favor of light.
SongstressEnlil (11:19:01 PM): IM: I wish I had something to keep these in.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:19:12 PM): Light?
Besyanteo (11:19:19 PM): ...
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:19:19 PM): Weren't you told what we're doing?
Besyanteo (11:19:27 PM): *waits for her to assassinate herself*
OMG Priam (11:19:40 PM): We must be able to understand pain, so we may value the sweeter things in life and cherish them.
OMG Priam (11:19:52 PM): And I have heard enough about our mission.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:20:00 PM): I don't think you have.
OMG Priam (11:20:10 PM): *Glares at her* You think me a mere naive fool?
OMG Priam (11:20:19 PM): I was not always a holy man. I have known my fair share of pain and strife.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:20:21 PM): In honesty, we're looking for something that's vague at best, and may not even exist anymore.
Besyanteo (11:20:23 PM): *he manages not to grin. Only just*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:20:40 PM): *Ahem*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:20:47 PM): I didn't ask for your life story. I asked what you were told.
Idran1701 (11:20:53 PM): The downpour begins to slow as the group continues on under the storm.
CGNakibe (11:20:54 PM): *frowns at the commotion*
SongstressEnlil (11:20:59 PM): (Spaceman, get that?)
OMG Priam (11:21:00 PM): (Is the sun still visible in some sense? Or is sunset indistinguishable at this point?)
Idran1701 (11:21:06 PM): (Yeah, just now.)
OMG Priam (11:21:12 PM): Like I said, I was told enough.
Idran1701 (11:21:18 PM): (And the sun's still distinguishable, yeah. It's about noon.)
Idran1701 (11:21:24 PM): (An hour or so past it, that is.)
OMG Priam (11:21:25 PM): And I know the...slipperiness of our mark.
OMG Priam (11:21:43 PM): But it would be cowardess to ignore my duties.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:21:48 PM): Despite this so called "Light" not being at all involved.
OMG Priam (11:21:50 PM): *cowardice
SongstressEnlil (11:21:51 PM): (Lemme know when you answer, I dunno if I'm getting them)
CGNakibe (11:21:55 PM): Hmph.
Idran1701 (11:21:59 PM): (Just responded.)
Besyanteo (11:22:08 PM): Hmm.
Besyanteo (11:22:18 PM): That, Martillo,
OMG Priam (11:22:19 PM): The light is involved in everything. The true tragedy is when we cannot see it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:22:28 PM): *Snaps to Klaus*
Besyanteo (11:22:30 PM): Is the mark of a woman who lacks faith.
Besyanteo (11:22:35 PM): You are not likely to reason with her.
SongstressEnlil (11:22:42 PM): IM: So inconclusive, though.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:22:50 PM): You'd be well advised to keep out of conversations that do not involve you
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:22:52 PM): *.
SongstressEnlil (11:22:53 PM): *Lets the droplets fall as they will*
OMG Priam (11:22:58 PM): *Shrugs* I believe the saying involves stones and glass houses, but I cannot judge her. Like I said, I was not always a
holy man.
Besyanteo (11:23:00 PM): *he simply smiles at her*
CGNakibe (11:23:32 PM): Perhaps we would ALL be best served by a change in the topic, as this one is already starting to BORE me. >.>
Besyanteo (11:23:44 PM): If I might observe, Renfield,
OMG Priam (11:23:47 PM): *Grins at him* If you wish to be entertained, then be entertaining.
Idran1701 (11:23:57 PM): Slowly, but surely, the rain comes to an end, and things assume a pretense of normality once more. All but for that sense of power that still
permeates the area.
Besyanteo (11:23:58 PM): most anything that does not involve rubbing your own ego bores you.
OMG Priam (11:24:00 PM): I did not hear you discussing anything earlier.
CGNakibe (11:24:21 PM): And I was comfortable in the silence that I was surrounded by up till a minute or so ago.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:24:21 PM): I'm merely trying to figure out how twisted our...Friend here is, Sir.
CGNakibe (11:24:28 PM): >.> *GLARES at Klaus*
Besyanteo (11:24:36 PM): *still with the friendly smile*
OMG Priam (11:24:41 PM): *Raises his brow from underneath his mask* Twisted? In what manner, my dear lady?
CGNakibe (11:24:43 PM): Hmph.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:24:49 PM): You'd be well advised to stop that smiling. Your teeth disgust me.
SongstressEnlil (11:24:52 PM): IM: I wonder if this is the effects of the impulses upon them, or merely their own dispositions.
Besyanteo (11:25:06 PM): If the sight of me displeases you, then I advise you look away.
CGNakibe (11:25:20 PM): IM: ... This is NOT the time for this. >.<
SongstressEnlil (11:25:26 PM): Perhaps it would be best if we kept an eye on our surroundings, lest they grow unfriendly?
OMG Priam (11:25:39 PM): *nods* Wise enough words, my friend. This is a most tricky place.
CGNakibe (11:25:41 PM): Ah, Wisdom.
CGNakibe (11:25:47 PM): So it CAN be found here. e.e
Besyanteo (11:25:49 PM): ... Quite. *he nods*
OMG Priam (11:26:08 PM): IM: But not in you, "good sir."
SongstressEnlil (11:26:17 PM): IM: Praised be Siglos for this.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:26:24 PM): *Mumbles something about lapdogs running at the masters beck and call*
Besyanteo (11:26:37 PM): *If he heard it, he didn't react*
Idran1701 (11:26:38 PM): In the distance, about another hour's travel, the group can just spy a tower peaking above the horizon. They should pass quite close by it if
they continue on this trail.
Besyanteo (11:26:56 PM): *he'll examine this with interest!*
SongstressEnlil (11:27:01 PM): *Likewise!*
CGNakibe (11:27:10 PM): *how old does the tower look?*
OMG Priam (11:27:17 PM): *Looking~*
OMG Priam (11:27:25 PM): (Also, Priam is in brb mode at the moment.)
Idran1701 (11:27:31 PM): As they near it, they can tell that, though still standing, it must be quite old.
CGNakibe (11:27:32 PM): Hm. Is that someone's watchtower?
Idran1701 (11:27:44 PM): Karl can recognize the architectural style from woodprints, in fact.
CGNakibe (11:27:56 PM): Well. That's definitely been there a while.
SongstressEnlil (11:28:01 PM): *Assessing, oh yes.*
OMG Priam (11:28:28 PM): Would this be the prophet's home, or someone else's establishment?
SongstressEnlil (11:28:32 PM): It is a watchtower, yes. Good eye, Arian
CGNakibe (11:29:00 PM): *snorts* Anyone with EYES could see that much.
SongstressEnlil (11:29:15 PM): Logical, given this is one of Trakain's old roads.
SongstressEnlil (11:29:28 PM): And, it could be a dwelling place.
SongstressEnlil (11:29:39 PM): As opposed to a watchtower, that is.
SongstressEnlil (11:30:27 PM): Too far away to tell much else, though.
CGNakibe (11:30:27 PM): So the question is, is this where the so-called Prophet lives?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:30:52 PM): It's worth checking out.
Idran1701 (11:31:00 PM): They are still a few hours from the location on the old map given to them, but that means little given the warnings they were told.
CGNakibe (11:31:05 PM): And wasting valuable time on, no doubt.
SongstressEnlil (11:31:27 PM): Well, I doubt it, but it is on the edge of where we think Madifor lies.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:31:30 PM): With all due respect, Sir, we could miss something important.
CGNakibe (11:32:01 PM): ... I suppose you ARE right. We should see who might be there.
SongstressEnlil (11:32:15 PM): Certainly, there is worth in looking into it, even if we don't find Sventrath's works.
OMG Priam (11:32:40 PM): (PAUSE)
SongstressEnlil (11:32:48 PM): (Kay)
SongstressEnlil (11:33:04 PM): (Also, thanks for Recommending Green Amnesia, Bes)
Besyanteo (11:33:10 PM): (=D)
OMG Priam (11:33:52 PM): (UNPAUSE)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:34:08 PM): If nothing else, I can check it out alone and catch up.
SongstressEnlil (11:34:47 PM): I would love to see it, myself.
Besyanteo (11:34:59 PM): I'm sure there's value in detouring to check it out. If not our objective,
OMG Priam (11:35:00 PM): *Is still analyzing the scenery, with that spaced-out look, his hands back to his side. If they're on a wagon or something,
he is kneeling, but if they are on horseback, he is unusually lax-appearing for a rider.*
SongstressEnlil (11:35:02 PM): We'll decide when we are closer and can know mor, shall we?
Besyanteo (11:35:05 PM): it could sitll hold something valuable.
Idran1701 (11:35:08 PM): (Horseback, all.)
OMG Priam (11:35:23 PM): Not to mention the fact that there is great power in numbers.
Besyanteo (11:35:33 PM): (Hm? Rolls?)
OMG Priam (11:35:49 PM): (No, the specific method of transit was not previously established.)
Besyanteo (11:36:01 PM): (Bleh. Distracting myself too much.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:36:19 PM): (Pervy, there's something that's been bugging me for awhile, and I just can't take it anymore.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:36:25 PM): (You...You have a really big face, man.)
SongstressEnlil (11:36:31 PM): (How dare you!)
OMG Priam (11:36:38 PM): (What a soothing voice...)
Besyanteo (11:36:47 PM): (Lemmings plays...)
Idran1701 (11:36:57 PM): The group soon gets to the outside of the tower...and already somethingodd can be seen.
OMG Priam (11:37:15 PM): (Great savings?!)
Idran1701 (11:37:18 PM): It appears to have been shifted a good six inches off of its foundation towards the east.
Besyanteo (11:37:24 PM): ...
OMG Priam (11:37:35 PM): *mutters* Strange trickery...
Besyanteo (11:37:39 PM): *as a precautionary measure, he'll bless the party*
Idran1701 (11:37:40 PM): It looks perfectly stable, though.
CGNakibe (11:37:54 PM): Hmph. Like some people before they go mad.
OMG Priam (11:37:55 PM): *Is saying his own personal prayers, calling on Maihen for strength*
Idran1701 (11:37:59 PM): (The party is now under the effects of Bless. Don't forget to thank Brache for it. :O)
SongstressEnlil (11:37:59 PM): *Frowns at this, whilst examining* IM: I knew I should have paid more mind to architecture
Idran1701 (11:38:10 PM): (And an Int/Knowledge check from Karl.)
OnlineHost (11:38:18 PM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 6
SongstressEnlil (11:38:25 PM): (Whump!)
OMG Priam (11:38:32 PM): im: Of course, a legendary land such as the Void would still have relics from the old wars that could cut through stone
such as this...
Besyanteo (11:38:35 PM): (Nin nin nin~)
SongstressEnlil (11:38:46 PM): (Bes predicted the next one)
CGNakibe (11:38:46 PM): (ARRRGH. SPACE MONSTER!)
Besyanteo (11:38:57 PM): (=D)
OMG Priam (11:39:07 PM): (Real space monsters?)
CGNakibe (11:39:26 PM): (Nope. Just Flonne.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:39:36 PM): Hm.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:39:44 PM): *HOW LARGE IS THE TOWER?*
Besyanteo (11:39:49 PM): (Flonne: Gr! <=F)
SongstressEnlil (11:40:08 PM): If I'm not mistaken...I believe this is one of Trakain's border checkpoints.
Idran1701 (11:40:21 PM): Two stories tall, with a flat roof. A wall extends around the roof at waist height.
Besyanteo (11:41:00 PM): *he dismounts, and goes to look about. CArefully, of course. Not entering yet*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:41:03 PM): There's no point in everyone going in; the distortion may cause it to collapse.
Idran1701 (11:41:05 PM): Broken in sections, though. Just that top wall.
OMG Priam (11:41:12 PM): So what do you suggest?
SongstressEnlil (11:41:32 PM): True. At the same time, staying out here doesn't necessarily protect us.
Besyanteo (11:42:06 PM): If no one else, I will enter.
SongstressEnlil (11:42:10 PM): *Goes to examine the foundation, to get a sense of what the first floor looks like*
SongstressEnlil (11:42:12 PM): I shall.
CGNakibe (11:42:17 PM): Hmph. I'll do it of course.
OMG Priam (11:42:19 PM): *dismounts.*
Idran1701 (11:42:21 PM): (Zero wants to lurk; that OK with everyone?)
Besyanteo (11:42:24 PM): (Harg.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:42:25 PM): No, sir.
Besyanteo (11:42:29 PM): (Sure.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:42:29 PM): I'll do it.
OMG Priam (11:42:29 PM): (Whoops, that was Kenichiro dismounting)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:42:37 PM): I doubt any of you have any experiance with this sort of thing.
OMG Priam (11:42:46 PM): If my assistance is needed, I shall come with you all.
(11:42:49 PM) Brodzky Zero has entered the room.
Besyanteo (11:42:49 PM): *he nods* Then be my guest.
OMG Priam (11:42:56 PM): As it seems that everyone wishes to explore.
Besyanteo (11:42:58 PM): IM: So. Predictable.
Brodzky Zero (11:43:04 PM): (Who's winning?)
Besyanteo (11:43:13 PM): *he goes to stand by his mount*
OMG Priam (11:43:19 PM): (Unsure, but Kenichiro is pulling forward with a moral victory)
Idran1701 (11:43:21 PM): Klaus examines the tower; it seems sturdy enough.
SongstressEnlil (11:43:24 PM): (Well, so far it's Klaus 1, and Arias: 0)
Idran1701 (11:43:31 PM): No obvious cracks in the wall itself...which is quite odd, given what happened to it.
Idran1701 (11:43:36 PM): It shouldn't even be upright right now.
SongstressEnlil (11:43:47 PM): *Can he determin the floor plan from the exposed foundation?*
Idran1701 (11:44:03 PM): (Only six inches are exposed. That's about the width of the wall.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:44:04 PM): *Dismounts*
OMG Priam (11:44:10 PM): *Pulls a card out from the sleeve at his belt, and holds it between two left-hand fingers.*
SongstressEnlil (11:44:21 PM): (Aha)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:44:24 PM): *And looks around the door!*
CGNakibe (11:44:27 PM): *dismounts*
SongstressEnlil (11:44:33 PM): No cracks. Intriguing...
OMG Priam (11:44:34 PM): *Dismounts as well. All the cool kids are doing it.*
Besyanteo (11:44:38 PM): I wish you luck. ... And do be careful, Karl.
Idran1701 (11:44:45 PM): The door is wood; apparantly preserved by some means, as it looks as sturdy as the rest of the tower.
SongstressEnlil (11:44:46 PM): I shall.
SongstressEnlil (11:44:53 PM): *Making his way toward the door*
OMG Priam (11:44:57 PM): *goes to the door. knocks.*
Besyanteo (11:45:00 PM): *aparently, he's no longer going in.*
CGNakibe (11:45:03 PM): *adjusts his swallow to make it easier for him to draw* TRY to stay safe out here. <.<
SongstressEnlil (11:45:04 PM): *Having dismounted!*
Idran1701 (11:45:04 PM): There is no response.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:45:13 PM): ...
OMG Priam (11:45:13 PM): *Pulls at some sort of handle, presuming there is one.
OMG Priam (11:45:15 PM): *
CGNakibe (11:45:18 PM): *goes to the door as well*
Besyanteo (11:45:28 PM): IM: It would be a pity if you died with these two fools. ... Martillo, as well.
CGNakibe (11:45:30 PM): Well. No one may be home.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:45:31 PM): Alright, if everyone else is going in, I shall stay out here.
Idran1701 (11:45:31 PM): He pulls at the handle...and it pulls off, as the door crumbles with it.
OMG Priam (11:45:39 PM): Will you be entering as well, Klaus?
Idran1701 (11:45:47 PM): From the age of the would, it would appear, however.
Idran1701 (11:45:51 PM): *wood
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:45:59 PM): I doubt he will.
OMG Priam (11:46:01 PM): *steps out of the way of some of the wood's fall. Enters.*
Besyanteo (11:46:03 PM): It is a very old structure, Martillo. Even in the distortion,
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:46:04 PM): Not until he has to. That's why he recruited you!
SongstressEnlil (11:46:13 PM): *Looks at door remains* A pity, that.
Besyanteo (11:46:13 PM): it would be folly to send too many people in at once.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:46:18 PM): You're his lamb, lead to slaughter so he knows it's safe.
Besyanteo (11:46:23 PM): >_>
Besyanteo (11:46:30 PM): Are you quite finished?
Idran1701 (11:46:37 PM): Kenichiro enters the tower...it's quite sparse. A ladder which once led to the second floor is now a pile of splinters on the floor beneath the
hole in the ceiling.
SongstressEnlil (11:46:44 PM): *Heads inside as well, walking-stick in hand*
Idran1701 (11:46:49 PM): An old pile of remains can be seen next to one wa...
OMG Priam (11:46:51 PM): I assure you, I came of my own free will.
Idran1701 (11:46:55 PM): ...that skull looks odd.
OMG Priam (11:47:00 PM): No amount of squaking with change that.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:47:04 PM): No, but I know you're going to make some remark that you're positive is witty, smile your idiotic smile, and do nothing but irritate everyone
who actually makes a difference here.
OMG Priam (11:47:05 PM): squawking*
OMG Priam (11:47:22 PM): *Takes another talisman out, and holds it in his right hand.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:47:26 PM): Perhaps you should go home? I don't think Karl needs a fanclub.
CGNakibe (11:47:28 PM): He DOES have one good point, Lilium
SongstressEnlil (11:47:34 PM): If I may ask, what are you doing?
Idran1701 (11:47:36 PM): Something's off about it as it lies in the ground, but he can't tell what.
Besyanteo (11:47:36 PM): *he sighs* The paranoia of some people.
CGNakibe (11:47:39 PM): This place in no way looks stable.
Idran1701 (11:47:43 PM): Karl can spy the same sight.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:47:49 PM): ...Yes, because I just suggested it about two minutes ago that I be the only one to go in for that very reason.
CGNakibe (11:47:52 PM): Anyway...
CGNakibe (11:48:08 PM): *steps quickly over the pile of splinters and in*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:48:12 PM): IM: These people will be the death of me. Because I'm going to stab myself in the head.
Idran1701 (11:48:22 PM): The others that wish to enter do so, and the same scene presents itself to them.
SongstressEnlil (11:48:22 PM): *examines that skull, not touching it, listening to Ken if he chooses to reply*
CGNakibe (11:48:25 PM): (Don't stab YOURSELF. Stab THEM. >:P)
OMG Priam (11:48:28 PM): *sighs* Which one of you is entering, Klaus or...you, miss?
(11:48:34 PM) OMG Priam has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:48:38 PM): White Wind.
Idran1701 (11:48:38 PM): ...That's only half of a skull. The rear of it appears missing.
Idran1701 (11:48:42 PM): (Pause for Priam/Neb.)
(11:48:57 PM) OMG Priam has entered the room.
CGNakibe (11:49:11 PM): *looks at the skull, hoping to figure out what the hell is wrong with... oh!*
Besyanteo (11:49:13 PM): Aparently neither. I have nothing to prove to this girl,
Idran1701 (11:49:19 PM): In fact, the same is true of other bones here, Karl can tell.
Besyanteo (11:49:20 PM): though aparently she can not say the same of us.
OMG Priam (11:49:22 PM): *Kenichiro will instead of responding, be keeping close attention to his surroundings.
OMG Priam (11:49:25 PM): *
Idran1701 (11:49:31 PM): (Wis/Intuition check for Karl.)
SongstressEnlil (11:49:33 PM): Hmmm.
OnlineHost (11:49:39 PM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 2
CGNakibe (11:49:45 PM): That's... odd..
OMG Priam (11:49:45 PM): (Nothing but net)
SongstressEnlil (11:49:49 PM): (Nin nin nin~)
CGNakibe (11:49:56 PM): *examines the other bones in the area*
Besyanteo (11:50:02 PM): (I feel like Pervy's going to steal all our good rolls, suddenly.)
CGNakibe (11:50:17 PM): (Priam better start manufacturing us some good luck. >.>)
SongstressEnlil (11:50:22 PM): *Looks toward the western wall, and points*
SongstressEnlil (11:50:30 PM): (I've cooked for him)
OMG Priam (11:50:32 PM): (If you want to win the lottery, you have to buy a ticket)
Besyanteo (11:50:35 PM): (It's not that we aren't having luck. It's just that he's the only one rolling so far.)
CGNakibe (11:50:43 PM): (True enough.)
CGNakibe (11:50:50 PM): Hm?
SongstressEnlil (11:50:57 PM): *Then draws closer for a better look*
OMG Priam (11:51:09 PM): In that case, I shall go in, since I will not need to keep either of you company.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:51:12 PM): There's that wit again.
Idran1701 (11:51:14 PM): The remains are right up against this wall...the wall that all realize now is the western wall.
CGNakibe (11:51:15 PM): *follows Karl, wondering what the heck he could've seen*
Besyanteo (11:51:21 PM): >.> If you say so.
OMG Priam (11:51:22 PM): Please, do not try to kill each other. It would be bad for morale.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:51:25 PM): Do you think of this all by yourself?
Idran1701 (11:51:28 PM): And what appears to be bone can be seen embedded within it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:51:29 PM): Or do you pay someone?
OMG Priam (11:51:30 PM): *And with that, he walks to the tower.*
SongstressEnlil (11:51:48 PM): I daresay the tower was moved into this poor soul.
Besyanteo (11:51:51 PM): *he watches Martillo go*
Besyanteo (11:51:58 PM): As for what I have provided,
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:52:03 PM): Shh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:52:05 PM): Quiet time is now.
OMG Priam (11:52:06 PM): *Looks for alternate means further into the tower.*
OMG Priam (11:52:20 PM): *Quietly* Have you two made any progress?
Besyanteo (11:52:22 PM): I have placed the blessing of Brache on the party. >_> All you can claim to have done is quarrel with me,
Idran1701 (11:52:28 PM): The only other way to go is up; he could try to leap for the hole.
Besyanteo (11:52:33 PM): and give your boss foul looks when he's facing the other way.
CGNakibe (11:52:36 PM): Better him than us.
Besyanteo (11:52:41 PM): ... Not that anyone can blame you.
SongstressEnlil (11:52:44 PM): True.
OMG Priam (11:52:55 PM): *puts away the talisman in his left hand, and gets out a fan.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:53:02 PM): You also convinced an idiot to join us in a mission that was supposed to be kept secret.
SongstressEnlil (11:53:19 PM): (Is this this room the entire lower floor, as far as they can logic?)
OMG Priam (11:53:19 PM): *Spreads it, twirls, clacks it shut, spins some more, flourishes, opens the fan, and steps to the side a few times. Tosses
the talisman into the air, and it poofs into ash.*
Idran1701 (11:53:23 PM): (Yep.)
Besyanteo (11:53:24 PM): I love how you've known him for less than a day,
Besyanteo (11:53:31 PM): and assume to know his full depth immediately.
SongstressEnlil (11:53:44 PM): *Watches Ken with some interest*
OMG Priam (11:54:01 PM): *Those who care to notice can feel a small breeze as the talisman evaporates, and some people may or may not be
priviledged with a spellcraft check.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:54:08 PM): Hmph.
Idran1701 (11:54:10 PM): (d20s for anyone that is.)
Idran1701 (11:54:17 PM): (And is inside the tower.)
OnlineHost (11:54:20 PM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 19
OMG Priam (11:54:23 PM): *Next, he gets out that almost-trident-head from his sash, and looks towards the wall under the hole.*
OnlineHost (11:54:24 PM): CGNakibe rolled 1 20-sided die: 7
SongstressEnlil (11:54:33 PM): (Yay foreignness!)
OMG Priam (11:54:45 PM): *Is getting in the tower! But has no Spellcraft. WOE.*
Besyanteo (11:54:47 PM): *satisfied that she gets the point, he stops for now*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:54:51 PM): (UNrelated roll)
OnlineHost (11:54:53 PM): TheWaiChibiAngel rolled 1 20-sided die: 15
CGNakibe (11:55:30 PM): ...IM: Mighty odd way to cast that particular spell...
CGNakibe (11:55:39 PM): Expecting trouble?
SongstressEnlil (11:55:46 PM): *Observes some more*
Idran1701 (11:56:09 PM): Lilium kicks out...and strikes Brache in the crotch.
OMG Priam (11:56:10 PM): *looks over his shoulder, merely acknowledging but not answering the question. Goes back to checking the wall for
loose points.*
Besyanteo (11:56:19 PM): (... Brache?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:56:23 PM): (...That was one mighty kick)
Idran1701 (11:56:25 PM): (...Klaus.)
Besyanteo (11:56:46 PM): *... That was not such a grande idea*
Besyanteo (11:56:57 PM): (Idran.)
Besyanteo (11:57:08 PM): (How powerful a spell from the reverse healing sphere can I cast at this level?)
OMG Priam (11:57:13 PM): (Oh man, this is going to end in tears.)
CGNakibe (11:57:22 PM): (This does not bode well.)
SongstressEnlil (11:57:24 PM): (Indeed)
Idran1701 (11:57:27 PM): (Just the weakest one.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:57:32 PM): (Bes was the trouble customer. ._.)
Besyanteo (11:57:38 PM): (... Dude.)
OMG Priam (11:57:44 PM): *Is now standing guard over the other three men, as best he can.*
Besyanteo (11:57:46 PM): (You talk shit to everyone who speaks at all.)
CGNakibe (11:57:48 PM): (Shaun called day 3. Shaun wins! :D!)
OMG Priam (11:57:53 PM): *Since like hell he knows how to get inside the place.*
Besyanteo (11:57:54 PM): (Everyone's a trouble customer for you. o_o)
SongstressEnlil (11:57:57 PM): (It's still day one!)
OMG Priam (11:58:09 PM): (She must be especially disgruntled.)
CGNakibe (11:58:11 PM): (Thought it was at least day 2)
Idran1701 (11:58:15 PM): (This is day 2, actually.)
SongstressEnlil (11:58:20 PM): (Ah)
Besyanteo (11:58:22 PM): (.. Ha. I win.)
Idran1701 (11:58:23 PM): (It took a day to get to the edge of the distortion.)
CGNakibe (11:58:24 PM): (And C'mon. You see what Arian's been putting the poor girl through)
OMG Priam (11:58:25 PM): (Hoorj)
Besyanteo (11:58:26 PM): *AT ANY RATE*
CGNakibe (11:58:30 PM): (Damn you Bes! *shakes fist*)
Idran1701 (11:58:41 PM): (You still need to make a touch attack to deal the damage, though.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:58:44 PM): (Actually, she hasn't said anything to Fu Manchu and Karl, she just thinks that El Mexicano is naiev, and Klaus is a manipulative, stupid,
arrogant guy. :( )
OMG Priam (11:58:53 PM): *takes a couple steps back, and tightens his grip on that thing.*
Besyanteo (11:58:54 PM): *Reverse healing, or something painful from necrotic sphere. Whichever hurts more*
OMG Priam (11:59:10 PM): *runs at the wall!*
SongstressEnlil (11:59:13 PM): (She's just thought it)
SongstressEnlil (11:59:26 PM): *Just watching Ken*
OnlineHost (11:59:37 PM): OMG Priam rolled 3 20-sided dice: 5 11 20
OMG Priam (11:59:49 PM): (SWISH SWISH WHOOSH)
Idran1701 (12:00:02 AM): Ken runs up the wall, and stabs his jitte into the stone. Using it as an anchor, he leaps for the hole...
Idran1701 (12:00:09 AM): ...and misses entirely, falling flat on his face.
Besyanteo (12:00:11 AM): (I need to get excerpts from the spell book for myself. It'd make everything run much faster.)
OMG Priam (12:00:24 AM): *Readies himself to catch the mystic!*
SongstressEnlil (12:00:25 AM): Are you alright? *Tries to help him up*
OMG Priam (12:00:32 AM): *Or help him up, either or.*
OMG Priam (12:00:44 AM): *Accepts the help.*
Idran1701 (12:00:44 AM): (1 damage.)
CGNakibe (12:00:52 AM): *sighs* That's certainly A way to attempt to climb it.
OMG Priam (12:00:54 AM): im: Curse my bad planning.
SongstressEnlil (12:00:58 AM): What were you trying to do?
Idran1701 (12:01:04 AM): (Back outside!)
Idran1701 (12:01:07 AM): (d20 from Klaus.)
OMG Priam (12:01:14 AM): *gets that other talisman out, and the fan. Whoosh, flourish, spin, twist, clack, fwish, toss, ash.*
OnlineHost (12:01:20 AM): Besyanteo rolled 1 20-sided die: 5
OMG Priam (12:01:27 AM): *Spellcraft, if applicable.*
Besyanteo (12:01:46 AM): (Any relevant skills I should menion?)
OnlineHost (12:01:57 AM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 14
Idran1701 (12:02:02 AM): Lilium feels a jolt of pain in her body as the energies course through her.
Idran1701 (12:02:04 AM): (2 damage.)
CGNakibe (12:02:06 AM): IM: Admittedly I couldn't manage much better.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:02:10 AM): Aagh!
Besyanteo (12:02:17 AM): ... Touch me again...
OMG Priam (12:02:22 AM): (Do they hear the scream?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:02:23 AM): Pervert!
Besyanteo (12:02:23 AM): and I will end you woman.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:02:26 AM): PERVERT!
Idran1701 (12:02:28 AM): (They do!)
CGNakibe (12:02:34 AM): <.< What was that?
OMG Priam (12:02:37 AM): Brigands!
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:02:40 AM): *Flicks her wrists...And wow, where the fuck did those blades come from?*
OMG Priam (12:02:41 AM): *Rushes out!*
Besyanteo (12:02:46 AM): *he's trying to stand again*
Idran1701 (12:03:09 AM): (Karl missed this check also, by the way.)
SongstressEnlil (12:03:13 AM): (Indeed)
CGNakibe (12:03:16 AM): *sighs, comes out with a hand reaching back for his Swallow* What was that noise about?
OMG Priam (12:03:26 AM): *He's going to try the wall again! Hopefully this time it won't hurt as bad.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:03:26 AM): He made a move on me!
Besyanteo (12:03:31 AM): *oh my, look at this. There's Klaus looking hurt, and Lilium preparing to tear him to pieces*
CGNakibe (12:03:39 AM): *Scowls over at Klaus*
Idran1701 (12:03:41 AM): The group rush out, to see Klaus trying to stand, and the Steel Mongoose with blades from her arms.
Besyanteo (12:03:51 AM): I did no such thing. My order is celebant.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:03:53 AM): He acted like he was hurt, then when I tried to help him up, he tried to touch me!
OnlineHost (12:03:57 AM): OMG Priam rolled 3 20-sided dice: 9 1 17
Besyanteo (12:04:10 AM): This woman attacked me without cause.
OMG Priam (12:04:15 AM): (DING)
Idran1701 (12:04:16 AM): The same thing happens as before, though he drifts softly to the ground this time.
Idran1701 (12:04:19 AM): Still flat on his face.
OMG Priam (12:04:23 AM): (Wait ,what? He passed =O)
Idran1701 (12:04:27 AM): (Wait, he did?)
Idran1701 (12:04:29 AM): (...Wrong sheet.)
Idran1701 (12:04:30 AM): (Sorry!)
Idran1701 (12:04:43 AM): (Scratch that.)
OMG Priam (12:04:45 AM): *Furrows his brow, as if trying to sort this out*
Idran1701 (12:04:54 AM): He manages to pull himself up to the second floor.
CGNakibe (12:04:56 AM): *looks over to Lillim* ... Hmph. This is NOT the sort of thing we NEED right now.
OMG Priam (12:04:59 AM): One at a time, please.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:05:02 AM): Tell that to him!
Besyanteo (12:05:17 AM): *still bent, hold his horse for support*
SongstressEnlil (12:05:18 AM): Well done, Kenichiro!
Besyanteo (12:05:30 AM): (holding*)
OMG Priam (12:05:32 AM): Karl, explain yourself first. Then, tell your side, White Wind.
SongstressEnlil (12:05:46 AM): (Klaus!)
Besyanteo (12:05:53 AM): (This is indeed Klaus here.)
OMG Priam (12:05:57 AM): *Klaus
SongstressEnlil (12:06:03 AM): (I was waiting for that)
OMG Priam (12:06:14 AM): *Holds an arm down, presumably to help Karl up.*
Idran1701 (12:06:15 AM): Above, he sees a room with a large, half-collapsed wooden table in the center.
Besyanteo (12:06:20 AM): I was minding my own business, when this contempitble woman struck me.
SongstressEnlil (12:06:25 AM): *Reaches up to take it*
Besyanteo (12:06:27 AM): She shrieked as I tried to stand,
Besyanteo (12:06:31 AM): and then drew blades.
OMG Priam (12:06:35 AM): Hmph.
Idran1701 (12:06:35 AM): Another pile of splinters can be seen where once there was a ladder, and in the center of the table he can make out some sort of
scorchmark.
OMG Priam (12:06:41 AM): *Tries to discern if this is the truth!*
SongstressEnlil (12:06:51 AM): *If he thinks it will work, he'll try to use the jitte as a foothold*
Besyanteo (12:06:51 AM): (Skill or what?)
Idran1701 (12:07:01 AM): (Wis/Intuition check for Martillo.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:07:06 AM): I was specifically told by my employer not to kill you!
OMG Priam (12:07:18 AM): *The jitte is with Kenichiro, but he will do his damnedest to help Karl reach some good altitude to get a good
handhold.*
Besyanteo (12:07:22 AM): How you break your oathes is not my business.
OnlineHost (12:07:27 AM): OMG Priam rolled 1 20-sided die: 19
OMG Priam (12:07:30 AM): (Ouch.)
Idran1701 (12:07:47 AM): (He makes a good attempt, but he loses his grip, and Karl falls back to the ground.)
Besyanteo (12:07:51 AM): (What the hell. *keeps spell hunting* Are there no spells in the priest book? o_o)
Idran1701 (12:07:53 AM): *-()
SongstressEnlil (12:07:58 AM): Ack! One more time.
SongstressEnlil (12:08:02 AM): *Tries again!*
Idran1701 (12:08:03 AM): (Oh, no, they're in the Player's Handbook.)
OMG Priam (12:08:03 AM): (wait, that was my roll.)
Besyanteo (12:08:08 AM): (... Doh.)
Idran1701 (12:08:39 AM): (...All right, heh. Priam you roll and we'll see if we must retcon.)
OMG Priam (12:08:41 AM): (Yeah, that was Martillo. I was not aware of a roll being needed for Ken and Karl.)
OnlineHost (12:08:46 AM): OMG Priam rolled 1 20-sided die: 10
OMG Priam (12:08:56 AM): (Hm. Tie is win or lose?)
Idran1701 (12:08:57 AM): They both seem quite sincere in their claim; Martillo doesn't know who to believe.
CGNakibe (12:08:59 AM): *looks over at Lilium* ... This incident will be deducted from your pay, I hope you know. >.>
Idran1701 (12:09:06 AM): And Ken manages to pull Karl up to the floor with him.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:09:09 AM): ...he tried to molest me!
Besyanteo (12:09:15 AM): Lies.
OMG Priam (12:09:23 AM): *rubs the area of his forehead inbetween his eyes.* Perhaps I should stay out here.
SongstressEnlil (12:09:29 AM): *Pulled up!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:09:32 AM): What have I to gain, when you gave me an order?!
OMG Priam (12:09:34 AM): IM: Perhaps the area is tainting both their minds?
SongstressEnlil (12:09:37 AM): Thank you, my friend
CGNakibe (12:09:41 AM): .... Hmm...
Besyanteo (12:09:42 AM): It may be best.
SongstressEnlil (12:09:42 AM): *Has a look about*
OMG Priam (12:09:43 AM): IM: I have heard of places like this turning friends into foe...
OMG Priam (12:09:56 AM): IM: ...not that they were friends to begin with, which only makes it worse...
Idran1701 (12:10:04 AM): This looks...familiar to Karl...
Idran1701 (12:10:05 AM): (d20)
CGNakibe (12:10:13 AM): (Any chance Arian would be able to tell the truth about this himself?)
OnlineHost (12:10:13 AM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 15
Besyanteo (12:10:15 AM): IM: Your death will be long and torturous.
Idran1701 (12:10:24 AM): (Yeah, roll for Arian as well.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:10:27 AM): *Rolls up her sleeves, and grabs knobs on the back of her...Armsplints.*
OnlineHost (12:10:33 AM): CGNakibe rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:10:38 AM): *And pulls them back, causing the blades to recede.*
CGNakibe (12:10:45 AM): (See? YOU STOLE ALL THE LUCK, PERVY)
Idran1701 (12:11:34 AM): Yeah, Arian has no idea either.
SongstressEnlil (12:11:39 AM): (ROBBLE ROBBLE!)
SongstressEnlil (12:11:54 AM): My my my...
OMG Priam (12:11:56 AM): (*Steals Pervy's hat and mask*)
Besyanteo (12:11:57 AM): *slowly regaining composure*
CGNakibe (12:12:05 AM): ... since I can't be SURE who was responsible, I'll let this slide.
OMG Priam (12:12:18 AM): *Nods* I will watch over them both. You, go back inside.
SongstressEnlil (12:12:19 AM): *Has a look about, seeking anything of interest* I should have guessed we would find one of these here.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:12:27 AM): That's exactly why he wanted everyone else to go in. *Mumbles*
CGNakibe (12:12:28 AM): Hopefully there will be no further.. incidents. >.> *stares pointedly at Lilium and Klaus*
OMG Priam (12:12:32 AM): I am sure they have made some new discovery by now.
Besyanteo (12:13:09 AM): *doesn't acknowledge Arian*
SongstressEnlil (12:13:13 AM): This, my friend, is where the old empire used enchanted crystals to talk with places far away...
OMG Priam (12:13:14 AM): *looks at whatever it is that has apparently caught Karl's attention, if anything in particular.*
Idran1701 (12:13:27 AM): (It appears to be the room as a whole.)
OMG Priam (12:13:27 AM): *rubs his chin.*
OMG Priam (12:13:41 AM): *gestures, with an open hand, to the hole in the ceiling to the next floor.
OMG Priam (12:13:43 AM): *
SongstressEnlil (12:14:26 AM): They are legendary, this may be the first one I to have every been seen since Trakain's Woe
CGNakibe (12:14:37 AM): *... finally done with staring, he starts to go towards the tower...then seems to think of something.*
SongstressEnlil (12:14:42 AM): *-I, every => ever*
Idran1701 (12:14:57 AM): Ken can see the sky above through the open hole.
Idran1701 (12:15:02 AM): Looks like it leads to the roof.
CGNakibe (12:15:15 AM): *looks at who is outside.* Hmph. I suppose I can stay here for the moment.
SongstressEnlil (12:15:24 AM): *Looks for any sort of item that might have survived, personal or otherwise.*
CGNakibe (12:15:29 AM): I doubt I would have much success trying to climb to the upper floor of that thing anyway.
Idran1701 (12:15:46 AM): He finds nothing but the half-rotted remains of the table.
SongstressEnlil (12:15:54 AM): IM: I wonder how this plays into the grand scheme of things?
SongstressEnlil (12:16:10 AM): *Nothing like pot shards or crystal remains?*
Idran1701 (12:16:25 AM): Nope. There is that scorch mark on the remains, though.
OMG Priam (12:17:13 AM): *Continues to watch over his two companions, while occasionally glancing towards the area to keep an eye out for
potential threats.*
SongstressEnlil (12:17:52 AM): *Reaches into his backpack, and heads toward a worm section of wall, producing a book, a quill, and some ink*
SongstressEnlil (12:18:09 AM): *And seems to be trying to copy...something there.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:18:29 AM): *Seems to be talking to herself now* I'm a bodyguard, not a personal escort..
Idran1701 (12:18:46 AM): He can just barely get an impression; half of an outline of a pattern.
Idran1701 (12:18:52 AM): It's too worn to get any more than that.
OMG Priam (12:18:55 AM): I would not expect any less of you, miss.
SongstressEnlil (12:18:55 AM): *Copies what he can*
Besyanteo (12:18:58 AM): *waiting patiently*
CGNakibe (12:19:04 AM): IM: Why the hell should I be out here babysitting these two anyway?
Besyanteo (12:19:06 AM): (... damned AIM)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:19:19 AM): Tell that to the pervert.
Besyanteo (12:19:19 AM): *So like we said, patience*
Idran1701 (12:19:20 AM): Meanwhile, outside, the grass seems to be growing.
Besyanteo (12:19:31 AM): There is a phrase for this behaviour, miss.
OMG Priam (12:19:40 AM): *Speaking of patience, is allowing Karl to do his thing, unquestioned and unhastened.*
Besyanteo (12:19:41 AM): "The guilty dog barks loudest."
OMG Priam (12:19:58 AM): *Clears his throat. A-HEM*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:20:11 AM): That doesn't even make sense.
OMG Priam (12:20:16 AM): I cannot say what has happened here. The truth is elusive, like the name of a past lover being whispered on the wind.
Idran1701 (12:20:27 AM): (Excellent choice of analogy.)
CGNakibe (12:20:31 AM): IM: I'll be damned if I let this keep me from finishing this mission.
OMG Priam (12:20:31 AM): But! *Glares at the both of them* We will be having no more nonsense here.
SongstressEnlil (12:20:34 AM): *Once he has it down to his satisfaction, he'll spinkle some drying sand on what he's copied, and put everything away*
Besyanteo (12:20:44 AM): I agree fully.
OMG Priam (12:20:59 AM): *Will gesture up to the hole in the ceiling again, once Karl is done with Karl things.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:21:05 AM): Fine. But the next time he tries to touch me, I will defend myself....
SongstressEnlil (12:21:08 AM): I think I have everything here of value. *Looks up*.
SongstressEnlil (12:21:16 AM): Hmmm. You want to get onto the roof?
OMG Priam (12:21:19 AM): If that is the case, then nothing less would be expected.
CGNakibe (12:21:24 AM): I'd be surprised if you didn't, actually.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:21:27 AM): ...Though I'm curious. You said you're supposed to abstain? Your order, or something?
OMG Priam (12:21:30 AM): And the same goes for him, if the opposite is true.
Besyanteo (12:21:42 AM): >_> Yes.
OMG Priam (12:21:47 AM): *nods briefly.* Use your strength to help.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:21:49 AM): Just what IS your order?
OMG Priam (12:22:28 AM): IM: I am curious about this, as well...
Besyanteo (12:22:30 AM): I am a follower of Lord Brache. We wait patiently for the end times, and educate as many as we can in the interim.
SongstressEnlil (12:22:31 AM): *Nods* Very well.
OMG Priam (12:22:44 AM): (Klaus: Have you heard of the life stream?)
Idran1701 (12:22:46 AM): (Boosting Karl onto the roof, or Ken?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:22:53 AM): Uh huh...
Besyanteo (12:22:54 AM): (I totally could, but no.)
Besyanteo (12:23:03 AM): (Just replace a few names...)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:23:04 AM): Who the hell is Lord Brache?
SongstressEnlil (12:23:05 AM): (Whatever Ken wants!)
OMG Priam (12:23:17 AM): *moves his leg, to allow Karl to get his hands underneath his weird-looking shoe.*
OMG Priam (12:23:22 AM): *It's more like a sandal, really.*
Besyanteo (12:23:24 AM): (IDran: Disease and what now?)
Idran1701 (12:23:29 AM): (Pain.)
Besyanteo (12:23:32 AM): (Righto.)
SongstressEnlil (12:23:57 AM): *Laces his fingers together, and when Ken has a good grip, he'll lift. Kepeing as far away from the ladder hole as possible*
OMG Priam (12:23:59 AM): *Readies the trident thing.*
SongstressEnlil (12:24:15 AM): (I thought that was left down below; or has he more than one?)
Idran1701 (12:24:29 AM): (It was.)
OMG Priam (12:24:31 AM): *And jabs it into the wall if it looks like he won't be able to get a decent hand hold without it.*
Idran1701 (12:24:36 AM): (Karl used it as a foothold. :O)
Besyanteo (12:24:40 AM): God of Suffering and Pain. If not for the great distortion, he might have no purpose in this world. When he is ready,
Besyanteo (12:24:52 AM): he will unleash the apocalypse, and be able to rest once again.
Idran1701 (12:24:56 AM): (Goddess.)
Besyanteo (12:25:02 AM): (Goddess?)
OMG Priam (12:25:06 AM): (Wait, what? I had him using it like the way a pole vaulter uses the pole, except still carrying it with him. If that makes
any sense.)
Idran1701 (12:25:07 AM): (Minor irrelevant detail, but yeah.)
Besyanteo (12:25:09 AM): (Huh. Alrighty then.)
OMG Priam (12:25:22 AM): (I mean, the thing's not sharp in any way)
CGNakibe (12:25:26 AM): Hmmm... <.<
Besyanteo (12:25:34 AM): (replaces he's with she's and whatnot, then.)
Idran1701 (12:25:36 AM): (Ah, right. I keep thinking of a sai.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:25:43 AM): ...
OMG Priam (12:25:44 AM): (Sai aren't sharp either. =P)
Idran1701 (12:25:49 AM): (...They aren't?)
OMG Priam (12:25:52 AM): (Nope!)
SongstressEnlil (12:25:55 AM): (Your mom's not sharp!)
CGNakibe (12:25:56 AM): (Traditionally they're dull.)
Idran1701 (12:26:00 AM): (Raphael lied to me! >: )
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:26:01 AM): *Turns to Nacho Grande* This is the guy who told you we were looking for the light?
CGNakibe (12:26:10 AM): (Thank you for the obvious joke Pervy. >:{)
SongstressEnlil (12:26:18 AM): (No problem!)
OMG Priam (12:26:26 AM): *Is now being very, very quiet. He seems to be thinking.*
Idran1701 (12:26:27 AM): (All right, then, fair enough!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:26:29 AM): His god is all about destroying the world, from the sound of it.
OMG Priam (12:26:30 AM): *It is not a happy thought.*
Besyanteo (12:26:48 AM): I told him we were searching for a prophecy to save this country.
Besyanteo (12:26:54 AM): Light was never a question.
OMG Priam (12:27:26 AM): *is now trying very, very hard to control his speech. He's pretty much speaking through gritted teeth now* I was
speaking in metaphor earlier.
OMG Priam (12:27:29 AM): Not that this matters now.
OnlineHost (12:27:57 AM): OMG Priam rolled 2 20-sided dice: 6 20
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:28:06 AM): Look, his god is all about destroying the world. Is that really someone we want around?
Besyanteo (12:28:15 AM): *he shrugs* I see no problem. You seek to bring justice. I seek to prevent the impending slaughter, so that I might educate more to become
Brache's followers.
Idran1701 (12:28:26 AM): And he collapses onto Karl, sending them both tumbling to the floor of this floor.
SongstressEnlil (12:28:34 AM): Ah!
OMG Priam (12:28:38 AM): And what, exactly, is the point of this..."power"?
Besyanteo (12:28:49 AM): ... *never mentioned power*
OMG Priam (12:28:52 AM): *Looks like he's ready to pop Klaus' head off at any moment.*
CGNakibe (12:29:03 AM): It would be imprudent to send him away now, Lilium. He already knows of what we intend , for what little THAT is worth.
OMG Priam (12:29:08 AM): (Power as in "hey, another noun to describe a god or nation or something!")
Besyanteo (12:29:30 AM): (What, The Kazerian?)
Idran1701 (12:29:37 AM): (Brache, I think.)
OMG Priam (12:29:37 AM): *Huffs, and uses a breathing technique to avoid being wind-knocked-out-of. To only minor success.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:29:48 AM): *Just smiles at Klaus :D*
SongstressEnlil (12:29:50 AM): ...Please get off me?
OMG Priam (12:29:52 AM): *After a moment, stands, and gestures to indicate that they should switch roles.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:29:54 AM): *Granted, she's got that mask on...*
OMG Priam (12:30:01 AM): (Yes, Brache.)
SongstressEnlil (12:30:19 AM): *Nods, and gets ready to try and boost himself up*
Besyanteo (12:30:21 AM): ... Matillo, you act as though I spoke some lie to you, or tricked you. You wished to know of Brache, so I offered to teach you.
Besyanteo (12:30:33 AM): And you wanted to bring justice and glory to your god.
OMG Priam (12:30:43 AM): *Does the same finger-interlacing thing, and does his part.*
Besyanteo (12:30:43 AM): You have the oppourtunity to do that here.
OMG Priam (12:30:51 AM): But what of your motives?
Besyanteo (12:30:54 AM): *no remorse whatsoever*
OMG Priam (12:30:56 AM): Why do you support such a cause?
Besyanteo (12:31:01 AM): As I said.
Besyanteo (12:31:06 AM): I can not educate the dead.
OMG Priam (12:31:16 AM): No, the cause of your goddess!
CGNakibe (12:31:18 AM): *frowns*
Idran1701 (12:31:23 AM): (d20, with a -4 penalty for not having the Jitte's boost.)
Besyanteo (12:31:23 AM): To end the world?
OMG Priam (12:31:28 AM): Pain should be salved, not brought into the world.
OnlineHost (12:31:33 AM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 2
Besyanteo (12:31:41 AM): Mankind has inflicted a horrible pain into the world, in the form of this distortion.
Idran1701 (12:31:47 AM): Wow, he made that look easy.
Besyanteo (12:32:03 AM): First, Mankind must be removed, to prevent it from happening again.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:32:05 AM): *Slips back towards Bossman.*
SongstressEnlil (12:32:07 AM): *Hauls himself up!*
OMG Priam (12:32:13 AM): So, the lives of everyone are forfiet because of some fools in the past?
OMG Priam (12:32:17 AM): That is not justice!
Besyanteo (12:32:18 AM): Then the distortion must be removed, so new life can flourish.
SongstressEnlil (12:32:23 AM): *Then tries to get steady footing and look around*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:32:25 AM): *w* Is it so hard to believe that he tried to cop a feel? He preaches the end of the world!
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:32:33 AM): *w* He's clearly nuts, sir.
OMG Priam (12:32:41 AM): (Klaus: Hey, the world's about to end. Let's make out!)
Besyanteo (12:32:49 AM): Or would you damn the future of the world to the enveloupement of the growing distortion?
OMG Priam (12:32:57 AM): And can the distortion not be ended in some other way?
OMG Priam (12:33:07 AM): We are growing, we are learning, we are reaching new heights!
CGNakibe (12:33:14 AM): *w* Actually, his mission is pain. He probably wouldn't've done that... Although... >.>
Besyanteo (12:33:18 AM): And yet every day, we make no progress.
Idran1701 (12:33:24 AM): He manages to do so, and sees that this was likely a sentry post for the guards within the tower.
CGNakibe (12:33:29 AM): *w* I could see that you misliked him already. At least now I know why.
OMG Priam (12:33:33 AM): But who says we cannot in the future? We have made much progress elsewhere!
Idran1701 (12:33:38 AM): There is a well-rusted, ancient sword's blade laying on the roof's surface here.
Besyanteo (12:33:44 AM): *he shakes his head*
Idran1701 (12:33:45 AM): But besides that, little to be found.
SongstressEnlil (12:33:49 AM): Hmmm.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:33:55 AM): *Small nod*
OMG Priam (12:33:58 AM): There are many great minds in this world, blessed with the wisdom of the gods and the universe itself.
Besyanteo (12:33:58 AM): The world will end, one way or another.
OMG Priam (12:34:10 AM): But is it your place to say when?
Besyanteo (12:34:19 AM): I would rather it be a simple death, than this damnation. ... And I do not say when.
SongstressEnlil (12:34:22 AM): *Takes a cloth out of his backpack, and puts it over his hand, then picks up the weapon by the blade*
Besyanteo (12:34:23 AM): The gods do.
Idran1701 (12:34:55 AM): (Keeping it, or just examining it?)
SongstressEnlil (12:35:07 AM): *Examining, for now*
Besyanteo (12:35:35 AM): *he waits*
Idran1701 (12:35:39 AM): As he attempts to pick it up, part of the blade snaps off. It has been much time since the fall indeed.
SongstressEnlil (12:35:57 AM): Curses!
OMG Priam (12:36:01 AM): *Oh man, he does not like that sound.*
SongstressEnlil (12:36:06 AM): IM: Too ambitious...
OMG Priam (12:36:18 AM): And how far are you willing to go for this?
SongstressEnlil (12:36:46 AM): Just a sentry outpost, Kenichiro. I think I've ruined a rather interesting relic, though.
SongstressEnlil (12:37:01 AM): *Picks up the snapped-off part*
CGNakibe (12:37:07 AM): *w* We cannot just let him go... and yet... I can't say I like the idea of him staying myself. <.<
SongstressEnlil (12:37:19 AM): *With the cloth, after setting down the rest*
Besyanteo (12:37:25 AM): I beg your pardon? You make it sound as though I somehow furthered this.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:37:27 AM): *w* Nor do I, Sir. Nor do I.
OMG Priam (12:37:42 AM): Then what do you do?
Besyanteo (12:37:43 AM): I am a mortal. I worship Lady Brache.
Besyanteo (12:37:48 AM): And I spread her word.
OMG Priam (12:38:00 AM): And what is her word, other than her threats of destruction?
OMG Priam (12:38:15 AM): What is the point of serving her, other than to wish for a less painful end?
Besyanteo (12:38:36 AM): It is not enough for you to worship your god? You seek compensation?
OMG Priam (12:38:57 AM): *Shakes his head* That is not what I mean.
OMG Priam (12:39:04 AM): I mean, what is her message aside from that?
SongstressEnlil (12:39:58 AM): *Tries to derive what he can about the workmanship of the blade, and possible techniques that could have gone into it; and it it might have been
of enchanting quality in its time*
Idran1701 (12:40:03 AM): The remains of the blade feel as if they may crumble to powder merely by his touch...but they are holding together for now.
Idran1701 (12:40:19 AM): There's too much rust to tell anything beyond the fact that it once was a blade, sadly.
SongstressEnlil (12:40:33 AM): *A shame*
Besyanteo (12:40:36 AM): There is redemption, of course. Understanding our mistakes, and helping others to do so, following her path... It is, simply put, a way out of
hell. For we are all damned with the creation of this... madness. This stain on our world
SongstressEnlil (12:40:43 AM): -**
Besyanteo (12:40:43 AM): (aww. too short for the last period.)
OMG Priam (12:40:50 AM): *Nods, slowly.*
CGNakibe (12:41:07 AM): *yawns* All this temporizing and philosophy... is a point to be reached within the next few days?
OMG Priam (12:41:09 AM): *While he still looks distrustful, his expression has softened from restrained rage to a careful wariness.*
SongstressEnlil (12:41:13 AM): *Looks to the hole, and tries to figure out a safe one down.*
Besyanteo (12:41:30 AM): IM: Another convert lost? We'll see.
OMG Priam (12:41:48 AM): *A glare, however, is directed towards the noble. He says nothing, though.*
Idran1701 (12:41:54 AM): Looks like he gonna have to jump...
SongstressEnlil (12:41:56 AM): *If he can, he'll sit at the edge of it.*
CGNakibe (12:41:58 AM): *ignores*
Idran1701 (12:42:04 AM): Or drop, that too.
SongstressEnlil (12:42:11 AM): I'm coming down, now.
OMG Priam (12:42:29 AM): *will stay clear of that area.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:42:37 AM): Also...
SongstressEnlil (12:42:42 AM): *Looks down to see what Ken is doing, then try to lower himself*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:42:46 AM): I must know; what did you do to me when you touched me? It hurt.
CGNakibe (12:43:02 AM): Hm? >.>
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:43:19 AM): When he touched me, something happened. <_<
SongstressEnlil (12:43:30 AM): *And in general, minimize the fall as much as he can*
Besyanteo (12:43:32 AM): *in an even tone* I defended myself, as best an acolyte can.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:43:40 AM): So you did touch me.
Besyanteo (12:43:54 AM): Not sexually, you tramp.
CGNakibe (12:43:55 AM): I DO remember from school that some priests have been schooled in the arts of pain.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:44:10 AM): But you said you hadn't.
CGNakibe (12:44:17 AM): <.< Considering those arts would fit YOUR order quite well...
Besyanteo (12:44:19 AM): And if you draw blades on me again, I will do more than inflict a little 'pain'. ... And no,
OMG Priam (12:44:20 AM): I believe he meant in a perverse manner.
Besyanteo (12:44:24 AM): I said I never molested you.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:44:51 AM): Uh huh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:45:04 AM): Soooo...
OMG Priam (12:45:06 AM): IM: This is all so very confusing.
Besyanteo (12:45:08 AM): IM: Slow. And painful.
OMG Priam (12:45:16 AM): IM: I'm tempted just to toss them both into a ditch and be done with it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:45:20 AM): He's preaching the end of the world, changing his story, and he tried to hurt me when I didn't let him molest me...
Besyanteo (12:45:35 AM): *he raises a brow*
Besyanteo (12:45:39 AM): You have a vivid imagination.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:45:57 AM): ...You just admitted to all three.
Besyanteo (12:45:59 AM): Besides, even if it were not for my vow of celebacy,
SongstressEnlil (12:46:02 AM): *Any luck with that?*
Besyanteo (12:46:08 AM): who would want to touch you in -that- manner?
OMG Priam (12:46:17 AM): Please, both of you, be quiet.
OMG Priam (12:46:22 AM): For all I know, you're both lying.
Idran1701 (12:46:23 AM): Karl manages to lower himself safely, though he does lose his footing on his landing.
SongstressEnlil (12:46:42 AM): *Whump!*
CGNakibe (12:46:44 AM): <.< Hmm.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:46:52 AM): *Back to the bossman!* *w* We should bring this up with the others, I think?
SongstressEnlil (12:46:52 AM): Well, that could have been worse.
SongstressEnlil (12:47:15 AM): There was a sword up there, but far too weathered to gather much from it.
CGNakibe (12:47:19 AM): In private.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:47:42 AM): *Nod*
OMG Priam (12:48:06 AM): IM: Something happened, and neither one is telling the whole truth.
SongstressEnlil (12:48:07 AM): Any ideas on getting down easily?
OMG Priam (12:48:51 AM): IM: I'll have to keep my eyes on both these snakes.
OMG Priam (12:49:23 AM): *goes to the hole, sits on it, turns around, dangles by his arms, and lets himself fall down. Ding.*
SongstressEnlil (12:49:43 AM): ...My.
Idran1701 (12:49:46 AM): Ken makes it down safely.
SongstressEnlil (12:50:20 AM): *Tries to replicate this feat with his puny sage arms*
OMG Priam (12:50:36 AM): (This is for Martillo.)
OnlineHost (12:50:41 AM): OMG Priam rolled 1 20-sided die: 11
OMG Priam (12:51:36 AM): ...I think I have found a piece to this puzzle.
OMG Priam (12:51:42 AM): You are both mired in filth.
Besyanteo (12:51:57 AM): (... wut?)
OMG Priam (12:51:58 AM): Something here happened, and you both wish to make yourselves look better than the other, with truth being the first
casualty of your war.
Besyanteo (12:52:13 AM): >_>
Besyanteo (12:52:44 AM): *he shrugs* I can do nothing to further convince you of my innocence. I see no reason to continue trying.
OMG Priam (12:52:55 AM): How far the exagerations and half truths extend, I cannot tell, though.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:52:59 AM): Um...Why are we even still on this?
OMG Priam (12:53:15 AM): You were still on this a short while ago, miss.
Idran1701 (12:53:29 AM): (Give me a d20, Pervy.)
OMG Priam (12:53:29 AM): However, I will say one more thing.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:53:33 AM): Yeah, then we resolved that the next time it happens, I'm going to stab him in the throat.
OnlineHost (12:53:37 AM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 2
Idran1701 (12:53:44 AM): ((Sorry, trying to focus on this.)
Idran1701 (12:53:53 AM): He makes it down much more gracefully than his first attempt.
OMG Priam (12:54:01 AM): Having one person lie is disgusting enough. But having both parties lying is a disgrace on us all.
OMG Priam (12:54:07 AM): *And with that, he clams up.*
SongstressEnlil (12:54:22 AM): That was, ah, rather tricky.
SongstressEnlil (12:54:44 AM): *Regathers his walking stick*
Besyanteo (12:54:56 AM): *He simply continues to wait*
OMG Priam (12:55:12 AM): *holds his wrists, in that almost-folding-his-arms way.*
SongstressEnlil (12:55:23 AM): *And with that, makes his way out.*
CGNakibe (12:55:33 AM): With any luck, the others will be out rather quickly.
OMG Priam (12:55:45 AM): *does the same, but lets Karl go first, because he's been hearing vaguely what's been going on and he doesn't like it.*
Idran1701 (12:55:45 AM): The pair head out, to see the aftermath of the recent debate.
CGNakibe (12:56:00 AM): Ah. Finally.
OMG Priam (12:56:09 AM): Have you had any luck?
CGNakibe (12:56:12 AM): I take it nothing untoward happened to you while you were in there?
SongstressEnlil (12:57:22 AM): Well then, that was edifying. Sadly, no sign of the Sventrath
SongstressEnlil (12:57:31 AM): *-the
Besyanteo (12:57:42 AM): *seems to have a thin layer of dirt on one side of him, from where he fell*
CGNakibe (12:57:44 AM): As I said earlier. Mostly pointless.
Besyanteo (12:57:50 AM): *Otherwise... not much is new*
OMG Priam (12:57:57 AM): Hmn. Did you find anything else?
SongstressEnlil (12:58:18 AM): Not at all, Arian. What I did find was confirmation on one of the more popular legends.
CGNakibe (12:58:26 AM): Oh?
SongstressEnlil (12:58:27 AM): *Goes to remount*
CGNakibe (12:58:38 AM): Might I ask which one?
CGNakibe (12:58:42 AM): *mounts*
OMG Priam (12:58:47 AM): *Gets on his horse, as well.*
Besyanteo (12:58:48 AM): *likewise*
SongstressEnlil (12:58:54 AM): *Swings himself into the saddle* Are you familiar with the legend of Farspeech?
Idran1701 (12:59:03 AM): (Klaus is going to have to give me a Con/Fitness check for the horse riding.)
CGNakibe (12:59:09 AM): Not very.
Idran1701 (12:59:09 AM): (He did just get kicked in the crotch, after all.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:59:14 AM): (Klaus: Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow.)
Besyanteo (12:59:16 AM): (... You're kidding.)
Idran1701 (12:59:20 AM): (Yes.)
Besyanteo (12:59:30 AM): (Right.)
Idran1701 (12:59:36 AM): (:D)
CGNakibe (1:00:02 AM): (Horse: *rides harder just to spite Klaus*)
SongstressEnlil (1:00:10 AM): *Nods* It is believed that the Trakainians used a number of crystals magically coneected to each other to communicate over long distances.
SongstressEnlil (1:00:20 AM): **Connected
SongstressEnlil (1:00:50 AM): On the second floor of that tower, there is a chamber that held such a crystal.
CGNakibe (1:01:15 AM): Hm. Probably would be interesting if it still worked.
SongstressEnlil (1:01:24 AM): No sign of the relic itself seems to have survived the tradegy, sadly.
SongstressEnlil (1:01:34 AM): IM: And, very gainful...
Idran1701 (1:01:57 AM): And the group rides on!
SongstressEnlil (1:02:06 AM): On top was a sentry outpost, nothign there save a sword that has been exposed to the elements and the Distortion.
Idran1701 (1:02:20 AM): (And this seems like a good break point. It OK with everyone else?)
SongstressEnlil (1:02:22 AM): It did not take well to being touched.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:02:24 AM): (NO.)
SongstressEnlil (1:02:25 AM): (And sure)
CGNakibe (1:02:33 AM): (I'm dyin over here, so yeah.)
Besyanteo (1:02:37 AM): (That'd be for the best, yeah.)
SongstressEnlil (1:02:39 AM): (WAIT I CHANGE MY ANSWER TO AGREE WITH SHINI)
OMG Priam (1:02:45 AM): (I'm good.)
Besyanteo (1:02:45 AM): (I've got things to do.)
OMG Priam (1:03:45 AM): (apathy)
OMG Priam (1:03:59 AM): (Also, party award time? :D?)
Idran1701 (1:04:01 AM): (Experience: 200 base for all. A bonus 100 for Klaus and Lilium for some excellent conflict. And a bonus 100 to Martello for RPing a
luchador paladin perfectly.)
OMG Priam (1:04:09 AM): (Glee!)
CGNakibe (1:04:29 AM): (lllllUUCHARAAAN!)
Idran1701 (1:04:58 AM): (*Martillo)
Idran1701 (1:06:03 AM): Hope you all enjoyed this first session!
OMG Priam (1:06:08 AM): I sure did!
OMG Priam (1:06:15 AM): And I'm surprised by how well my guy fit in.
SongstressEnlil (1:06:16 AM): *IT STINKS*
CGNakibe (1:06:18 AM): Oh the DRAMA>
OMG Priam (1:06:29 AM): I am happy with this character.
Idran1701 (1:06:33 AM): As am I, Neb.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:06:33 AM): *:D*
CGNakibe (1:06:41 AM): Arian pleases me.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:06:45 AM): *Lilium has a Charisma of 8.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:06:48 AM): *Does it show? :D*
OMG Priam (1:07:03 AM): Not really, considering how proud she was of being manipulative.
CGNakibe (1:07:10 AM): Arian has a decent Cha.
CGNakibe (1:07:14 AM): BUT!
SongstressEnlil (1:07:20 AM): *He doesn't use it much*
CGNakibe (1:07:22 AM): Irritating Personality.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:07:38 AM): *Well, the difference, Dear Neb, lies in Charisma versus Intelligence.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:07:48 AM): *One can be manipulative without being particularly friendly.*
OMG Priam (1:08:00 AM): Ah, but charisma affect influence as well.
OMG Priam (1:08:06 AM): affects*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:08:09 AM): *It can, but not always.*
SongstressEnlil (1:08:09 AM): *Charisma is much more than friendliness*
OMG Priam (1:08:18 AM): Although you do have a point with the intelligence.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:08:21 AM): *Psh, Pervy.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:08:39 AM): *You have no idea how many people I manipulate on a daily basis into working on exactly the project I want them to by being a complete
jerk.*
SongstressEnlil (1:08:48 AM): *That is charsima :D*
OMG Priam (1:08:55 AM): Jerks can have high charisma. See, the business world.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:08:59 AM): *Oh, I misread you :(*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:09:02 AM): *And yeah, that's me.*
SongstressEnlil (1:09:06 AM): *And Mussolini*
Besyanteo (1:09:13 AM): I've got dishes to do. Idran: Help me with a new concept later? At this rate, Klaus won't last long.
OMG Priam (1:09:18 AM): And Mussolini was one mediocre looking guy.
Idran1701 (1:09:28 AM): Heh. Sure!
SongstressEnlil (1:09:29 AM): *MUSSOLNI IS +2 TO CHARISMA DUE TO HAVING A FUN NAME*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:09:33 AM): *Anyhow, the player part of charisma is friendliness. I can't so much say "Lilium scares you all away"*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:09:49 AM): *This is also why she's very shrowdy, as the other part is appearance.*
OMG Priam (1:10:10 AM): Actually...friendly characters can have low charisma.
Besyanteo (1:10:19 AM): Night people.
OMG Priam (1:10:24 AM): You know, that skeezy guy who's just a little bit too friendly? Not pervy, but sort of clingy?
OMG Priam (1:10:24 AM): Yeah.
OMG Priam (1:10:27 AM): Night, Bes!
(1:10:28 AM) Besyanteo has left the room.
SongstressEnlil (1:11:13 AM): *Though he could come off as pervy without meaning to*
OMG Priam (1:11:18 AM): Indeed.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:11:29 AM): *Anyway, you see what I mean, assholders. Or else I'll start taking names and piledriving.*
OMG Priam (1:11:38 AM): That's your answer to everything. :(
OMG Priam (1:11:47 AM): It's beginning to lose its effectiveness.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:11:49 AM): *Only because you make it.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:11:53 AM): *What a worthless daughter.*
Idran1701 (1:11:54 AM): To be fair, you're the one running a luchador, Neb.
OMG Priam (1:11:59 AM): Well, yeah.
OMG Priam (1:12:09 AM): But how often do I threaten people with pile drives?
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:12:10 AM): *I'm using Crazy Katar With Super Spring Action lady.*
OMG Priam (1:12:20 AM): Also, 'm amused that this was Bert's old font, I believe.
Idran1701 (1:12:20 AM): True! :D
Idran1701 (1:12:28 AM): I think so!
OMG Priam (1:12:34 AM): ...or not. Dammit, someone had the brown font.
OMG Priam (1:12:38 AM): Kurt, maybe?
OMG Priam (1:12:59 AM): Excuse me?
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:13:00 AM): *Jaeko.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:13:08 AM): *Also, this is Vani's font. :D*
SongstressEnlil (1:13:13 AM): *Mapache, I think*
OMG Priam (1:13:22 AM): On another note, Vani's font is almost the same color of a pair of boots I have.
SongstressEnlil (1:13:25 AM): *I forgot who has Karl's font!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:13:32 AM): *I was actually thinking about that on the ride home today.*
OMG Priam (1:13:42 AM): Ironically, I wore those boots to the same Midnight Mass where I almost crushed a small child.
OMG Priam (1:13:54 AM): By complete accident, I assure you.
Brodzky Zero (1:14:00 AM): *HELLO EVERYONE*
OMG Priam (1:14:04 AM): HELLO ZERO!
OMG Priam (1:14:15 AM): Also, logs?
Brodzky Zero (1:14:21 AM): *SORRY I WASN'T HERE WITH YOU!*
CGNakibe (1:14:25 AM): Are big, heavy, and wood.
OMG Priam (1:14:26 AM): THAT IS ALRIGHT
Idran1701 (1:14:27 AM): Wanting or giving out, Neb?
OMG Priam (1:14:30 AM): Wanting.
Brodzky Zero (1:14:36 AM): *They roll over your neighbor's dog.*
OMG Priam (1:14:41 AM): Considering, you know. Escape key escapades.
Idran1701 (1:14:44 AM): Ah, right.
Idran1701 (1:14:46 AM): Sure, one sec.
OMG Priam (1:14:50 AM): Thanks.
SongstressEnlil (1:14:59 AM): *Got a whole one, Idran?*
CGNakibe (1:15:07 AM): If you need oen, I've got one myself.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:15:08 AM): *Pervy, do you have your computar back?*
Idran1701 (1:15:10 AM): Mine's missing a few lines, but that's it.
Idran1701 (1:15:22 AM): DCed for about 5 minutes in the middle.
OMG Priam (1:15:50 AM): Wait a second. Do we have any chaotic-aligned characters in this group?
Idran1701 (1:15:55 AM): Nope.
OMG Priam (1:16:00 AM): That's fucked up
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:16:01 AM): *Guess who has a log, assholders.*
Idran1701 (1:16:01 AM): Don't think so, at least.
OMG Priam (1:16:05 AM): We do, now!
SongstressEnlil (1:16:15 AM): *Shini: No*
CGNakibe (1:16:37 AM): We have Lawful Evil. Lawful Anal. Lawful Good
CGNakibe (1:16:40 AM): Do we have Lawful Stupid?
OMG Priam (1:16:48 AM): Yes, with the Luchador.
OMG Priam (1:16:59 AM): Although I prefer to think of him as Awesome Stupid.
OMG Priam (1:17:05 AM): Lawful Anal?
CGNakibe (1:17:11 AM): Stupidly Awesome.
SongstressEnlil (1:17:18 AM): *Karl is Neutral Curious*
Brodzky Zero (1:17:21 AM): *You guys are lucky I didn't partake of this game.*
Brodzky Zero (1:17:32 AM): *Or you'd have a Saturnaliously Amourous on your hands.*
OMG Priam (1:17:44 AM): Ken is _________ ___________.
OMG Priam (1:18:00 AM): Also, for the sake of clarity, I (nebworth) will now be typing in italics.
OMG Priam (1:18:11 AM): Unless Priam decides not to switch over, just to fuck with you all.
OMG Priam (1:18:13 AM): Dun dun dun.
SongstressEnlil (1:18:18 AM): *Ken has Orochi blood*
OMG Priam (1:18:30 AM): *pulls you by the head through a tiny portal*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:18:38 AM): *You know, Neb, you should get your own computer. :(*
OMG Priam (1:18:45 AM): *Makes razzberry coolaid with a spear and Priam's body*
SongstressEnlil (1:18:46 AM): *Blue Stuff: ::Flies everwhere!::*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:18:49 AM): *Because consantly using mine or Priam's? :(*
OMG Priam (1:19:04 AM): It's being sent when my parents have the cash. :( Assholder.
OMG Priam (1:19:25 AM): Also, this computer is now officially deemed as public. Holder of asses.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:19:40 AM): *Haha, lame.*
Brodzky Zero (1:19:43 AM): *What's wrong with sharing?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:19:51 AM): *My computer will be public, so long as people let me know they're using it.*
OMG Priam (1:19:54 AM): Apparently, Shini dissaproves of our communist commune.
OMG Priam (1:20:03 AM): Capitalist pig dog that he is.
OMG Priam (1:20:15 AM): Don't get me wrong, my laptop will be my computer once it becomes enfixulated.
Brodzky Zero (1:20:23 AM): *Hey, I'd bring you guys Leninade if I had a car.*
SongstressEnlil (1:20:24 AM): *Now now, love. Shini is a Dog pig*
OMG Priam (1:20:33 AM): I shall keep this in mind!
OMG Priam (1:20:39 AM): And Priam says to give him back to Cho.
Brodzky Zero (1:20:41 AM): *He still likes getting scratched behind the ears, I bet!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:21:45 AM): *What's that, Pervy?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:21:59 AM): *You don't want to borrow my 1337 box0r for City of Villians and whatnot?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:22:02 AM): *Okay, I'll keep that in mind. :(*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:22:06 AM): *NEB, TOO?*
Idran1701 (1:22:07 AM): ...Your what?
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:22:08 AM): *AND POSSIBLY PRIAM?*
OMG Priam (1:22:18 AM): I think he wants us in his pants.
Brodzky Zero (1:22:22 AM): *Hahaha, Shini spoke in 'elite'-speak.*
OMG Priam (1:22:25 AM): Oh, it's on. You're getting the small room now.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:22:41 AM): *What?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:22:48 AM): *I claimed dibs on the one at the end of the hall.*
Brodzky Zero (1:22:51 AM): *What's next, an animated skull .gif?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:22:53 AM): *Dibs holds up in court, you know.*
Brodzky Zero (1:23:05 AM): *Can I have the attic?*
OMG Priam (1:23:12 AM): If you can find it, sure.
OMG Priam (1:23:16 AM): You can have the plumbing space.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:23:21 AM): *Seriously, that room? Mine.*
SongstressEnlil (1:23:22 AM): *Zero: A .wav from Altered Beast*
Brodzky Zero (1:23:25 AM): *I will keep it Goomba free.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:23:29 AM): *I will move people's stuff out of it if I must. :(*
OMG Priam (1:23:53 AM): Now how did the dibs calling happen, anyways? :(
OMG Priam (1:24:07 AM): Cause Priam seriously does not remember that shit.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:24:09 AM): *When I decided to sleep in that room when I visited, and said "This will be my room."*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:24:33 AM): *Then said "I call dibs on the room at the end of the hall" before you moved.*
OMG Priam (1:24:46 AM): He is maintaining his position of "you two get to fight over it".
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:24:49 AM): *And if that Lilo and Stitch poster isn't there when I move in, heads will roll.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:24:50 AM): *Do you hear me!?*
Brodzky Zero (1:25:03 AM): *I'm so happy :3 I got my own bank accounts today so I can buy stuff online.*
SongstressEnlil (1:25:08 AM): *I do not recall this declaraion either, Shini. Was I around for it?*
OMG Priam (1:25:11 AM): And the way I see it, until I get an actual matress (inflatable or otherwise), I'm abusing the waterbed frame to pile bedding
and crap to sleep in.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:25:13 AM): *What sort of account?*
Brodzky Zero (1:25:14 AM): *Shini, my niece has a Dora the Explorer poster I can steal for you.*
OMG Priam (1:25:23 AM): mattress*
OMG Priam (1:25:26 AM): This is only fair.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:25:27 AM): *Cuz you can't do shit with a Savings.*
Brodzky Zero (1:25:29 AM): *Uh, a savings and a checking. Two, actually.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:25:30 AM): *Gotta be Checking.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:25:32 AM): *Right.*
Brodzky Zero (1:25:36 AM): *DUAL POWER*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:25:39 AM): *I had to switch my shit to Checking.*
Brodzky Zero (1:25:55 AM): *But they're synched up or something so every month 25$ goes into savings.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:25:59 AM): *Also, I'm totally getting paid more than I anticipated out there. :D*
CGNakibe (1:26:09 AM): Well folks. I'm dead now.
Brodzky Zero (1:26:12 AM): *But I can move it right back if I wish. And I don't*
OMG Priam (1:26:13 AM): Night.
SongstressEnlil (1:26:18 AM): *Can I have your stuff, Shaun?*
CGNakibe (1:26:27 AM): All of it gets burned along with me.
Idran1701 (1:26:32 AM): Night, Shaun!
SongstressEnlil (1:26:38 AM): *Sure thing, Buddy!*
CGNakibe (1:26:38 AM): So if you wnat stuff that's busy being destroyed by flame, go right ahead.
Brodzky Zero (1:26:44 AM): *Hey, when I get a car, one of my plans is to drive out there and give OHIO something to be proud of (Besides the corruption.)*
(1:26:56 AM) CGNakibe has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:27:01 AM): *I got a new car today, Zero. :(*
Brodzky Zero (1:27:08 AM): *Sell me your old one.*
Brodzky Zero (1:27:11 AM): *I have 500 dollars.*
SongstressEnlil (1:27:14 AM): *You don't want it*
Brodzky Zero (1:27:24 AM): *You're right. It probably reaks of Shini's fury.*
SongstressEnlil (1:27:37 AM): *And the steering wheel gives*
Brodzky Zero (1:27:37 AM): *And the radio presets probably suck.*
Brodzky Zero (1:27:54 AM): *My dad's alignment is off just slightly to the right, and he won't believe me.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:27:57 AM): *It has one working speaker, a bad engine, terrible alignment, and it will try to kill you for looking at it cockeyed.*
Brodzky Zero (1:28:01 AM): *On his big retarded SUV, it's annoying as fuck.*
Brodzky Zero (1:28:11 AM): *I have no car.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:28:12 AM): *You want your alignment to be off in one direction, rather than off in two, like mine is.*
Brodzky Zero (1:28:18 AM): *:D*
Brodzky Zero (1:28:29 AM): *There was a car across the street for sale for 1,100$.*
Brodzky Zero (1:28:34 AM): *And then it went down to $800.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:28:45 AM): *We got mine for...13,444.23*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:28:54 AM): *Dad was all "Here, take the money, give me my car"*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:29:02 AM): *I've never even heard of someone flat out buying a car like that.*
Brodzky Zero (1:29:03 AM): *And then I put a cardboard sign on it that said "How about $300? It's not even clean."*
Brodzky Zero (1:29:29 AM): *Didn't you get a car as a gift from your dad (Who seems like a magical Car Czar) a few years back?*
Brodzky Zero (1:29:39 AM): *The mystery car vanished, by the by.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:29:46 AM): *I got my jeep.*
Brodzky Zero (1:29:53 AM): *Oh yeah.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:29:55 AM): *Which then turned to poop.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:30:09 AM): *Now, I got a Ford Taurus, which I should just call the Tauren.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:30:16 AM): *Because it's huge for the type of car it is.8
Brodzky Zero (1:30:26 AM): *If I had a car, Pervy knows what I'd name it.*
SongstressEnlil (1:31:00 AM): *I do not!*
Brodzky Zero (1:31:12 AM): *Then I don't :(*
Brodzky Zero (1:31:22 AM): *Pervy's good at naming. He named a drink I invented!*
Brodzky Zero (1:31:47 AM): *T'was New Year's Eve, 2005.*
Brodzky Zero (1:32:00 AM): *I had vanilla cream soda. I had rum.*
Brodzky Zero (1:32:13 AM): *I mixed them.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:33:01 AM): *Nobodies ever thought of that before, no sir!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:33:06 AM): *That Rum and Coke? It's a myth!*
Brodzky Zero (1:33:15 AM): *Vanilla cream soda is not coke.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:33:18 AM): *A MYTH! LIKE THE SASQUATCH!*
SongstressEnlil (1:33:20 AM): *Coke is Vanilla Cream Soda now?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:33:25 AM): *It's a soda, which has been done.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:33:32 AM): *I hear of it being done with energy drinks, aswell.*
Brodzky Zero (1:33:34 AM): *Shini have you even had Coke?*
Brodzky Zero (1:33:40 AM): *Yeah, well, mixing downers and uppers is retarded.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:33:45 AM): *A lot of my friends drink. I hear a lot of this stuff. >_>*
Brodzky Zero (1:33:52 AM): *YOUR FRIENDS HAVE NO CLASS*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:34:06 AM): *I DON'T RECALL DENYING THIS*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:34:12 AM): *WHY DO YOU THINK I"M MOVING TO BE WITH BETTER FRIENDS?*
Brodzky Zero (1:34:13 AM): *Get them to drink goldshlaeger. The drink of DANISH KINGS*
SongstressEnlil (1:34:15 AM): *I DO RECALL SUPPORTING THIS*
Brodzky Zero (1:34:43 AM): *I think Idran fell asleep.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:35:09 AM): *I'm telling him how much I hate the rest of you via IM.*
Idran1701 (1:35:18 AM): What who what?
SongstressEnlil (1:35:20 AM): *He's whacked on Cough Syrup*
Idran1701 (1:36:15 AM): Allergy pills. >:
Brodzky Zero (1:36:31 AM): *Really? I used to get absolutely goofy off of Claritin.*
Brodzky Zero (1:36:35 AM): *When it first came out.*
Idran1701 (1:37:21 AM): Benadryl. For some reason I thought taking some before the game would be a good idea.
Idran1701 (1:37:37 AM): Got past the sleepiness before it started, luckily, but it threw my concentration a little out of whack.
Idran1701 (1:37:45 AM): Stupid allergies. >:
Brodzky Zero (1:37:48 AM): *Hah.*
Idran1701 (1:38:05 AM): And ironically, it didn't even help that much.
Brodzky Zero (1:38:15 AM): *Oregons? Allergies?*
Idran1701 (1:38:47 AM): Hmm?
Brodzky Zero (1:39:02 AM): *:D!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:39:18 AM): *I'd like to state one more time:*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:39:29 AM): *I appear to be the onlyo ne hardcore enough to give my characters alergies.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:39:33 AM): *Like Miranda and her onions. :D*
Brodzky Zero (1:39:49 AM): *Ned is allergic to birds and mice.*
Idran1701 (1:40:54 AM): Well, you are at least as hardcore as Zero, Shini, it seems.
Brodzky Zero (1:41:22 AM): *Nah. I don't RP as girls :(*
Brodzky Zero (1:41:26 AM): *Shini wins this round!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:41:44 AM): *I also RP mutes!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:41:51 AM): *Two of them! But one cheats.*
SongstressEnlil (1:42:50 AM): *I RP a cripple :(*
Idran1701 (1:42:55 AM): Speaking of! Any chance of Falling Raine picking back up post-move, since I assume things will calm down for you some afterwards?
Idran1701 (1:42:58 AM): I miss it. :(
Brodzky Zero (1:43:06 AM): *I still don't know what I missed.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:43:45 AM): *What's the last thing you remember?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:43:53 AM): *And yes, Falling Raine can pick up after I move.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:43:59 AM): *Hell, maybe the week between move and work.*
Brodzky Zero (1:44:31 AM): *Last I remember was me having to leave for random family-problems I think.*
Brodzky Zero (1:44:42 AM): *Like my niece getting into the PHASER or something.*
Idran1701 (1:44:50 AM): He had to leave right before we all went into the alternate entrance hall.
SongstressEnlil (1:45:13 AM): *I don't think Zero was there for the dimensional distorting business, no*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:45:35 AM): *AH, yes. Dimensional Distortion.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:45:39 AM): *Okay, so, long story short:*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:45:52 AM): *There's some presence there that communicates for Raine, calls her Mistress.*
Brodzky Zero (1:46:04 AM): *Aha!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:46:06 AM): *Saying there's a secret in there, but it's for her eyes only, because no normal human can handle it.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:46:19 AM): *And thus the party found out that Raine is a Storm elemental!(TM)*
Brodzky Zero (1:46:28 AM): *Kyle: I'm...not a human.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:47:01 AM): *Or Gecko. Happy?*
SongstressEnlil (1:47:28 AM): *Allen: I am no longer a man!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:48:51 AM): *I'm surprised nobodies come after me about making up a new type of elemental. ._.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:48:56 AM): *And a little bit saddened. ._.*
Brodzky Zero (1:49:03 AM): *Storm Elementals? I've heard of those before.*
Brodzky Zero (1:49:12 AM): *I think UO had them.*
SongstressEnlil (1:49:22 AM): *Well, at the very worst, it can be considered a misnomer*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:49:28 AM): *Well, yeah. They exist in some settings.*
SongstressEnlil (1:49:37 AM): *I figured she was a crossbreed, myself*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:49:43 AM): *But she's 50% Wind, 50% Water, so I dubbed it Storm.*
Brodzky Zero (1:51:01 AM): http://mi.wizards.com/global/images/magic/general/storm_elemental.jpg
Brodzky Zero (1:51:29 AM): *She'd better not turn into that :( Kyle took Paper out of his deck and now he can't defend against flying.*
SongstressEnlil (1:52:11 AM): *Well, if he puts on the Dragoon Armor, he can get Jump*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:52:14 AM): *Nah. I'm more for the way I first saw Elementals in the Heroes of Might and Magic series.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:52:30 AM): *Humanoid, but made out of the element in question. As such, Raine has some problems with her elemental forms!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:52:54 AM): *And yes, I know how lame it is that I named a "Storm Elemental" Raine.*
SongstressEnlil (1:53:09 AM): *We still love you*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:53:31 AM): *I bet Idran appreciates it, though.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:53:42 AM): *Idran's probably like "A storm elemental? Named Raine? GENIOUS!"*
Idran1701 (1:53:42 AM): I just chalked it up to Barians.
Brodzky Zero (1:53:46 AM): *I bet she has a tree elemental sister named Arbera.*
SongstressEnlil (1:54:02 AM): *Willow*
OMG Priam (1:54:06 AM): Or <obvious pun here>
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:54:07 AM): *However, yeah. Raine is kinda like Jack for girls in the City of Storms, because people think they're clever.*
Brodzky Zero (1:54:21 AM): *Storme.*
Brodzky Zero (1:54:25 AM): *Watere.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:54:32 AM): *Wendy.*
Brodzky Zero (1:54:37 AM): *Wendy's a cool name.*
SongstressEnlil (1:54:41 AM): *Wendy made me laugh*
Idran1701 (1:54:44 AM): I as well.
OMG Priam (1:54:48 AM): Me too, I am somewhat sad to admit.
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:56:38 AM): *Pervy I didn't see the answer; do you have your laptop back?*
Brodzky Zero (1:57:07 AM): Kyle is a gender-neutral (although usually masculine) first name. ~was derived from the Gaelic word "caol" which means
"narrows", "channel", or "strait."
Brodzky Zero (1:57:33 AM): *Sweet. I can be a supervillain without having to re-embroider my underwear.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:57:33 AM): *Charcoal was named so because I love Haibane.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:57:58 AM): *That, and it also implied "The burnt ruins of something"*
Brodzky Zero (1:58:22 AM): *And also: Tasty barbecue.*
SongstressEnlil (1:58:25 AM): *Shini: Not for another week, at least*
OMG Priam (1:58:30 AM): That sucks
Brodzky Zero (1:58:45 AM): *I say we all put in to buy PErvy a new laptop.*
Brodzky Zero (1:58:55 AM): *Since his current seems to like making funny noises and then imploding.*
SongstressEnlil (1:59:10 AM): *Shit, buy pervy a new desktop, since they tend to be cheaper*
Idran1701 (1:59:15 AM): Idran was stolen from Star Trek. :(
Idran1701 (1:59:18 AM): The name.
SongstressEnlil (1:59:24 AM): *I don't travel with mine much anymore*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:59:38 AM): *Griff was actually a friend of mine. :(*
TheWaiChibiAngel (1:59:46 AM): *I just happened to like the name.*
Idran1701 (1:59:58 AM): I always think of Back to the Future when I hear that name, I'll admit.
Brodzky Zero (1:59:59 AM): *Kreb was named after Krebstar brand products.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:00:09 AM): *That's Biff.*
Idran1701 (2:00:13 AM): There was also a Griff.
Brodzky Zero (2:00:18 AM): *IN THE FUTURE*
Idran1701 (2:00:19 AM): Biff's grandson in the future.
Brodzky Zero (2:00:20 AM): *I think.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:00:20 AM): *There was?*
Idran1701 (2:00:24 AM): the cyborg.
Idran1701 (2:00:26 AM): *The
Brodzky Zero (2:00:32 AM): *DID HE HAVE A ROBOT ARM?*
Idran1701 (2:00:38 AM): I think so! It made whirring noises.
Idran1701 (2:00:43 AM): He was the guy in the hoverboard chase.
Brodzky Zero (2:00:45 AM): *Just like the real Griff.*
Brodzky Zero (2:01:04 AM): *I don't think any of my character's names have wacky reasons.*
Idran1701 (2:01:08 AM): Keir?
Brodzky Zero (2:01:11 AM): *Save for the various VUX Ministers.*
Brodzky Zero (2:01:15 AM): *SHUT THE HELL UP ABOUT KEIR*
Brodzky Zero (2:01:18 AM): *KEIR'S NAME IS A SECRET*
Idran1701 (2:01:21 AM): That's kind of wacky. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:01:26 AM): *Schroedinger is, like, a quintouple pun.*
Idran1701 (2:01:37 AM): It is? I only know the cat thing.
Brodzky Zero (2:02:38 AM): *The VUX ministers are hilariously named, I must admit.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:02:46 AM): *She was created in a state of life that wasn't true life. She's a nekojin-half. She's got a necromantic bomb in her that'll revive her as
Undead.*
Idran1701 (2:03:34 AM): Aha, I see. That's awesome. :D
Idran1701 (2:03:42 AM): Didn't think of the layers to it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:03:44 AM): *If you can't guess how I named Ecks, Why, and Zee, I'm gonna slap you.*
Brodzky Zero (2:04:23 AM): *UH*
Idran1701 (2:04:35 AM): Priam/Neb, how about your character names? :O
SongstressEnlil (2:04:43 AM): *They are all part of the Decartes family?*
Brodzky Zero (2:05:08 AM): *Capntastic was named after my first attempt at a webcomic in which it became obvious that Erik was even lazier than I.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:05:09 AM): *Neb went to bed. :(*
Idran1701 (2:05:13 AM): Oh. :(
Idran1701 (2:05:19 AM): Missed that.
Brodzky Zero (2:06:39 AM): *THE GIMMICK FOR SAID COMIC: The last frame of every full-page strip took place right before the first frame. Meaning you
could start reading it again from the top!*
OMG Priam (2:08:26 AM): Character names?
OMG Priam (2:08:39 AM): What are we talking about now?
Idran1701 (2:08:47 AM): Yes. Any crazy origins/hidden meanings for any of them?
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:09:13 AM): *Valford came from Vinsfeld!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:09:23 AM): *All his lackies are famous (Yet generally bad) people from Earthen history.*
OMG Priam (2:10:06 AM): Howard Griese is damn obvious, and is a good reason why nobody will ever forget his name
OMG Priam (2:10:17 AM): Adelbert came from an old wise-man monk I played on RO called Adelheid
OMG Priam (2:10:23 AM): Who came from KoF2003
SongstressEnlil (2:10:34 AM): *I thought it came from Wild ARMs*
OMG Priam (2:10:57 AM): Kenichiro's family name came from Chiaki's surname in SMT: Nocturne
OMG Priam (2:11:01 AM): What's this about Wild ARMs?
OMG Priam (2:11:15 AM): I remember there being an Adelheid, but I don't remember who it was
Brodzky Zero (2:11:53 AM): *Kreb's horse, Rixile, shouldn't be too hard to figure out.*
SongstressEnlil (2:12:03 AM): *Adlehyde*
Idran1701 (2:12:08 AM): Kreb likes backwardsing stuff, I notice.
Brodzky Zero (2:12:16 AM): *He does.*
Brodzky Zero (2:12:26 AM): *It's the original thief encryption.*
OMG Priam (2:12:26 AM): Oh, the city. Nope, came from Adel Bernstein.
OMG Priam (2:12:54 AM): Lemme think...
OMG Priam (2:13:09 AM): Milo came from me always wanting to name someone Milo since first seeing The Phantom Tollbooth
OMG Priam (2:13:34 AM): Kurt was pretty much me going "dammit, out of ideas" and stealing from a certain popular rocker =O
Idran1701 (2:13:36 AM): Heh.
Idran1701 (2:13:51 AM): Phantom Tollbooth was an awesome book.
OMG Priam (2:13:55 AM): And a great movie.
Idran1701 (2:13:59 AM): It was a movie?
OMG Priam (2:14:05 AM): Yeah, a mostly-animated thing
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:14:10 AM): *It sure was.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:14:16 AM): *We used to carry it at work.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:14:19 AM): *I was ordered to destroy it.*
Brodzky Zero (2:14:19 AM): *I loved that book :D*
Idran1701 (2:14:22 AM): Oh, hey, I think I remember parts of that, actually.
Brodzky Zero (2:14:23 AM): WHAT*
Idran1701 (2:14:29 AM): Why?
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:14:30 AM): *Physically destroy it.*
Idran1701 (2:14:30 AM): Too old?
OMG Priam (2:14:34 AM): Probably
Brodzky Zero (2:14:41 AM): *After Shini tells this story, I have one.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:14:45 AM): *Because, little known fact is that Rental Joints are taxed on how many items they have*
Idran1701 (2:14:51 AM): Huh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:14:52 AM): *Thus, inventory has to be removed.*
Idran1701 (2:15:02 AM): Can't do a free giveaway?
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:15:06 AM): *And we don't want hobos sifting through our trash, so we lphysically destroy it.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:15:07 AM): *Nope.*
OMG Priam (2:15:08 AM): Gift tax
OMG Priam (2:15:10 AM): So no
Idran1701 (2:15:12 AM): Ah.
OMG Priam (2:15:29 AM): I think I took Milo's last name from a book called One Quest, Hold the Dragons
OMG Priam (2:15:41 AM): Which is pretty funny fantasy reading if you get the chance
Brodzky Zero (2:15:53 AM): *MY STORY*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:15:58 AM): *Also: The Twilight Council is the most blatant case of laziness on my part. They're all named after things in my room.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:16:14 AM): *Clock, Keis, Kann, Kase...*
Brodzky Zero (2:16:22 AM): *Back when I used to hang out at Gamestop for free sodas and banter, I also got to help out with minor tasks (in exchange for
soda.)*
Brodzky Zero (2:16:33 AM): *One day I had to (Much like Shini) destroy some stuff.*
Brodzky Zero (2:16:48 AM): *They handed me the tub of >DESTROY< things.*
Brodzky Zero (2:16:52 AM): *I looked in.*
Brodzky Zero (2:17:15 AM): *Megaman 5 for NES. Phantasy Star 4 for Sega. Some Dreamcast games, and a controller.*
OMG Priam (2:17:20 AM): Oh shit.
SongstressEnlil (2:17:26 AM): *So you stole it all?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:17:30 AM): *That's the down side.*
Brodzky Zero (2:17:31 AM): *They all worked fine when I got 'em home :D*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:17:42 AM): *On the offchance they catch that, you will go to jail.*
OMG Priam (2:17:46 AM): Hells yeah
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:17:53 AM): *It's considered internal theft, which is worse than external.*
OMG Priam (2:17:56 AM): Which doesn't make any sense
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:17:59 AM): *Indeed.*
Idran1701 (2:18:05 AM): Huh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:18:07 AM): *THERE IS ONE EXCEPTION*
Brodzky Zero (2:18:15 AM): *The last manager at the Gamestop got fired for embezzlement and didn't go to jail.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:18:24 AM): *Magazines. Magazines you ARE LEGALLY allowed to take, IF they're out of date, AND the cover is ripped off.*
Brodzky Zero (2:18:26 AM): *Also he hit on girls that came in. Girls my age.*
Idran1701 (2:18:28 AM): You can fire with a lot less evidence than you can prosecute.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:18:34 AM): *Idran has it.*
OMG Priam (2:18:43 AM): Well yeah. Firing you can do with no evidence, under some circumstances.
Brodzky Zero (2:18:46 AM): *This guy used to work with my dad. They are the same age.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:18:51 AM): *Fun thing about magazines:*
OMG Priam (2:18:54 AM): "You're fired." "Why?!" "Eh, it's thursday"
Idran1701 (2:19:04 AM): Zero: That is creepy. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:19:06 AM): *Any book that's being thrown out counts as a 'magazine'*
OMG Priam (2:19:16 AM): Heh.
OMG Priam (2:19:34 AM): Is THAT why Celeste had so goddamned many books with no covers.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:19:34 AM): *I had to read up on all the loopholes when I got promoted.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:19:38 AM): *Yep*
Idran1701 (2:19:40 AM): That "rip the cover off" thing would make me sad to do, though. :(
SongstressEnlil (2:19:44 AM): *Hmmm*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:19:52 AM): *This is also why you're not supposed to buy a book with no cover.*
SongstressEnlil (2:19:53 AM): *Does the whole cover have to be ripped off?*
Brodzky Zero (2:19:57 AM): *Yes.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:19:59 AM): *Entirely.*
Idran1701 (2:20:06 AM): I've heard that before, but I always thought those were factory discards, not stock.
OMG Priam (2:20:08 AM): The whole cover? Or just the front cover?
Brodzky Zero (2:20:16 AM): *Factory discards get ripped too.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:20:17 AM): *This is also related to the "It is illegal to remove this tag" on matresses.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:20:22 AM): *The whole cover.*
OMG Priam (2:20:25 AM): Hunh.
SongstressEnlil (2:20:27 AM): *Back in 95, my school had a book giveaway, all have like an inch of front cover removed*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:20:40 AM): *The law may have changed.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:20:44 AM): *Or it may be state to state.*
OMG Priam (2:20:45 AM): It also might vary from state to state.
OMG Priam (2:20:48 AM): Dammit, you beat me to it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:20:50 AM): *:D*
OMG Priam (2:20:51 AM): *beats you*
Idran1701 (2:20:52 AM): Might be the difference between library and store, too.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:20:54 AM): *And I'm about to pass out, too!*
OMG Priam (2:20:57 AM): DO EET
SongstressEnlil (2:20:59 AM): *Indeed, I was wondering about that*
SongstressEnlil (2:21:08 AM): *Because the cover thing irritated me :(*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:21:23 AM): *It's so you don't get free boks, then go out and sell them.*
Idran1701 (2:21:27 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:21:33 AM): *Hence, you're not supposed to pay money for a book with no cover.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:23:22 AM): *Trying to recall the specifics on the "Don't remove this" Matress tag.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:23:30 AM): *I know it's related to book covers and resale.*
(2:26:19 AM) Brodzky Zero has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:28:07 AM): *GUESS WHO'S BEEN UP SCINCE ONE AND NEEDS TO SLEEP!?*
SongstressEnlil (2:28:40 AM): *PRIAM?*
OMG Priam (2:28:48 AM): INDEED
SongstressEnlil (2:28:55 AM): *I COULD SEE HIM DOING IT WHILE RACKING UP KOF ENDINGS*
OMG Priam (2:29:13 AM): Fuck you, I need full cogniscence and also some ESP to beat Magaki
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:30:03 AM): *My music won't let me sleep. :(*
SongstressEnlil (2:30:06 AM): *Yes :(*
SongstressEnlil (2:30:18 AM): *I scared Sarah with stories of Magaki*
OMG Priam (2:30:27 AM): God
Idran1701 (2:30:28 AM): Play something sleep-inducing, Shini. :(
OMG Priam (2:30:34 AM): I have to wonder what you told her
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:30:36 AM): *Also: Yuri Kasarov came from Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2, for those who still care about this topic :(*
Idran1701 (2:30:44 AM): (I do!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:31:09 AM): *Yuri is the Uber Psychic NPC in the Russian army :D*
Idran1701 (2:31:24 AM): And to finish mine up: Michael, Greg, and J.G. were all named by stealing a first name from one place and a last name from another.
Idran1701 (2:31:28 AM): Janda named Vasquez in a spam RP.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:31:43 AM): *"I shall call him...Vasquez!"*
Idran1701 (2:31:49 AM): +Stuttering.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:31:54 AM): *Well, yeah.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:32:08 AM): *Too tired to stutter.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:32:20 AM): *Let's see.*
Idran1701 (2:32:24 AM): And Nessan (though only Pervy knows who that is) was named by taking two names that mean "weasel" or "stoat" from two different cultures.
Idran1701 (2:32:31 AM): (Maybe Shini)
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:32:40 AM): *If anyone cares to name someone, I'll recall where it came from. :(*
Idran1701 (2:32:46 AM): Janda
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:32:50 AM): *Pervy.*
Idran1701 (2:32:54 AM): Oh, right.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:33:05 AM): *Enlil renamed Janda when she needed a monicker, and she just forgot what her real name is.*
SongstressEnlil (2:33:14 AM): *Indeed*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:33:22 AM): *I still have that RP on file.*
Idran1701 (2:33:26 AM): Loake? The name always reminded me of Joaquim, just because they sound similar the way I pronounce the former.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:33:28 AM): *That was a good week for RPing.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:33:43 AM): *Loake is actually my oldest name.*
SongstressEnlil (2:33:43 AM): *She's actually tried to remind Janda what her real name is, but it never goes well*
Idran1701 (2:33:56 AM): Pervy: Oh? I didn't know that, actually.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:34:02 AM): *He was a Diablo 2 Barbarian. I wanted something that was like Locke and Loki at the same time.*
Idran1701 (2:34:06 AM): Ah.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:34:07 AM): *And both were taken.*
Idran1701 (2:35:03 AM): Hmm...
Idran1701 (2:35:16 AM): Vaniyakna? The last name, mainly.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:35:16 AM): *COMPLETELY UNRELATED:*
SongstressEnlil (2:35:22 AM): *In fact, one during End of the Chaos*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:35:25 AM): *VNV Nation has no US tours. This makes me horricially sad.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:35:29 AM): *Also, Vani was...*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:35:35 AM): *...Random letters with vowels.*
Idran1701 (2:35:40 AM): ...Aha. Heh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:35:43 AM): *It just turned out real well.*
Idran1701 (2:35:59 AM): Was that in chat, Pervy? Because I didn't see it in the forum thread.
SongstressEnlil (2:36:16 AM): *I think it was chat*
Idran1701 (2:36:21 AM): *nod*
SongstressEnlil (2:36:25 AM): *First trip to the Chapel*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:36:38 AM): *First trip? When she met up with Shada?*
SongstressEnlil (2:36:43 AM): *Yeah*
Idran1701 (2:36:46 AM): That was the thread.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:36:47 AM): *That was in the board.*
SongstressEnlil (2:36:51 AM): *During that night*
SongstressEnlil (2:36:56 AM): *I thought it was*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:37:05 AM): *Oh, I should tell Pervy.*
SongstressEnlil (2:37:05 AM): *But if Idran didn't see*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:37:25 AM): *I intend to do a series of RPs concerning Janda after End of the Chaos, if interested! It'll give you a chance to have someone who's not Enlil
worry about her for once!*
SongstressEnlil (2:38:01 AM): *Perhaps!*
Idran1701 (2:38:10 AM): Also I am working on a plotty CI involving Idran also after EoC, having been inspired by just that plan of Shini's.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:38:14 AM): *It's gonna be a bunch of little short things.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:38:32 AM): *As in, like, guided CIs with maybe two actual plots here and there.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:38:40 AM): *All leading into Memoria: CRASH.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:38:44 AM): *Which is gonna be good. Times.*
Idran1701 (2:38:44 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:38:54 AM): *I mean, come on. "CRASH".*
Idran1701 (2:38:59 AM): Mine might go into actual RP territory, I'm not yet sure.
Idran1701 (2:39:10 AM): Shini, you need to share some of your RP naming ability. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:39:10 AM): *DId you give me details on that? I can't recall.*
Idran1701 (2:39:18 AM): I just came up with it last night, so I doubt it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:39:29 AM): *Also, Pervy got the second hint of the events to come in CRASH yesterday. :D*
SongstressEnlil (2:39:37 AM): * :D*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:39:38 AM): *Or whatever day it was.*
Idran1701 (2:40:02 AM): Mine would be for anyone with either a connection to Idran or an interest in space/time magic. :O
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:40:23 AM): *:O*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:40:31 AM): *TAREEN*
Idran1701 (2:40:35 AM): General plot is investigating a lead on something that might help to stave off the progressive aural damage.
Idran1701 (2:40:51 AM): Aural is a poor word formation, given that it already has a meaning.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:40:52 AM): *Also, any other names, or should I just kill Winamp and go to bed?*
Idran1701 (2:41:09 AM): Hayward.
Idran1701 (2:41:20 AM): Because it is so close to my name that it is kind of creepy.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:41:28 AM): *Justin Hayward?*
Idran1701 (2:41:30 AM): Yes.
SongstressEnlil (2:41:34 AM): *I have occasionally called him Hilyard!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:41:35 AM): *Justin Hayward is the lead singer for the Moody Blues.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:41:41 AM): *Which is my mom's favorite band.*
Idran1701 (2:41:43 AM): Ah.
Idran1701 (2:41:49 AM): Yeah, my last name's Hilyard.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:41:56 AM): *My last name is Lastname.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:42:06 AM): *I have the package to proove it.*
Idran1701 (2:42:18 AM): It was easier than asking you. :D
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:42:24 AM): *Klemm.*
Idran1701 (2:42:38 AM): ...Klemm?
SongstressEnlil (2:42:38 AM): *Shini has a surprisingly Orkish name :D*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:42:48 AM): *Christopher J Klemm.*
Idran1701 (2:43:02 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:43:27 AM): *Also, Annie is proof of the theory that Imperial World is an alt-gaera.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:43:33 AM): *As she's near identical to Anita. :D*
Idran1701 (2:43:49 AM): And yet, Idran kind of hates Anita a little.
Idran1701 (2:43:50 AM): Crazy!
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:43:59 AM): *It's not hard to hate Anita a little.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:44:13 AM): *She's not really mean intentionally. She's just really, really...Intense, I guess.*
SongstressEnlil (2:44:33 AM): *Driven*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:44:38 AM): *Pervy has it.*
Idran1701 (2:44:49 AM): Though I have to say, I was surprised by her restraint outside Cork.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:44:50 AM): *FUN FACT*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:44:56 AM): *She gets on Antonitus's nerves.*
Idran1701 (2:45:00 AM): NO REALLY?
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:45:12 AM): *Because she's very impulsive for an Archangel!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:45:35 AM): *As far as Archangels go, Anita is, like...Well, she's probably the youngest Archangel around, unless somoene's moved up more recently.*
Idran1701 (2:45:46 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:45:53 AM): *That is to say, most recent Celestial to be bumped up to middle Managment.*
Idran1701 (2:45:57 AM): I'm still waiting for that discussion between Idran and Anita. I can't wait to see how it ends up turning out. :D
SongstressEnlil (2:46:01 AM): *Of the Ideals, anyways.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:46:08 AM): *This is true, yeah.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:46:19 AM): *Ideals are harder to move up in the ranks. :(*
SongstressEnlil (2:46:23 AM): *Indeed*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:46:42 AM): *Envy has the same deal going on in Vanguard, actually.*
SongstressEnlil (2:47:07 AM): *I SHALL RETURN*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:47:08 AM): *She's the youngest member of Vanguard by quite a bit.*
Idran1701 (2:47:17 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:47:33 AM): *ANYTHING ELSE?*
OMG Priam (2:47:37 AM): I HAVE RETURNED
OMG Priam (2:47:44 AM): I AM PROBABLY GOING TO LURK AGAIN SHORTLY TO READ OLD LJ ENTRIES.
Idran1701 (2:48:32 AM): Yanti? Or was that another random-letter thing?
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:50:22 AM): *Yanti and Tareen were attempts to be "Names that sounded a bit crazy but could still pass"*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:50:36 AM): *The original thing was: Yanti meant Brother, Tareen meant Sister, and Nouma meant Mother.*
Idran1701 (2:50:42 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:50:58 AM): *Then, Tareen was more lovable than I expected, and that became her real name.*
Idran1701 (2:51:47 AM): She somehow combines lovability and irritability into a single package. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:52:35 AM): *I think it's that it's really hard to fault her due to the fact that her mind is absolutely gone at this point :(*
Idran1701 (2:52:49 AM): What? :(
Idran1701 (2:53:14 AM): She's not that bad, I don't think.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:55:27 AM): *Well, her mind is pretty addled as far as chaotic contamination goes.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:55:34 AM): *That's why she's got such sever ADD :O*
Idran1701 (2:56:20 AM): Yeah, but she still has some moments of lucidity. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:57:02 AM): *Every once in a blue moon :(*
Idran1701 (2:57:59 AM): You have too many characters that I feel bad about. :(
Idran1701 (2:58:22 AM): I'm gonna have to think about Griff to cancel stuff out.
TheWaiChibiAngel (2:58:36 AM): *I corner the market on "Tragic yet non-angsty" characters.*
Idran1701 (2:58:43 AM): Heh, sewer.
Idran1701 (2:59:12 AM): I've been trying for that with my guy in Bes's RP, actually. The aforementioned Nessan.
Idran1701 (2:59:57 AM): I think I might be drifting too far into angst for it to qualify, though, since it's mostly recent stuff he's reacting to.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:02:29 AM): *It's tricky.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:02:41 AM): *Tareen is an easy case; she doesn't remember any of the suckiness of her origin :(*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:02:49 AM): *Selene doesn't think about it.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:03:24 AM): *Come to think of it, Coal is one of the only characters I intentionally milk angst with.*
SongstressEnlil (3:04:27 AM): *Yes :(*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:04:52 AM): *But hers is justified!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:04:58 AM): *She is, after all, the Tragic Marionette. :(*
Idran1701 (3:10:16 AM): Well, I have no more name questions, and from what I understand, you are a bit tired, Shini. :(
(3:10:19 AM) SongstressEnlil has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:10:30 AM): *4 Serious. Reading an artical, then passing out.*
(3:10:39 AM) TheWaiChibiAngel has left the room.
OMG Priam (3:18:42 AM): Beep beep =(
Idran1701 (3:20:31 AM): Beep? :(
OMG Priam (3:30:54 AM): 00101001011010011110100101010.
Idran1701 (3:32:15 AM): That's not ASCII. :(
