You have just entered room "A Hidden Shadow."
FFFan80 has entered the room.
THENinjaRabbi has entered the room.
T3chn0Namagomi has entered the room.
XStrike8 has entered the room.
XStrike8: Hmmm..
Arch mage144: You're all in a hallway.
Arch mage144: Arch mage144: (Stairs ahead, door with sigil ahead, door to the left.)
Arch mage144: Everyone ready?
XStrike8: <Damian Smith>
FFFan80: <Daniel Hyral>
Arch mage144: <THE GM>
THENinjaRabbi: <Masqueetes Theodoric Torias-Altec, Paladin of Mithra>
T3chn0Namagomi: <Kamos Mazuo, the greedy merc>
Arch mage144: (No kidding.)
THENinjaRabbi: *looks at the sigil* I suppose we should come back here later.
T3chn0Namagomi: I say we take the stairs.
THENinjaRabbi: *nods*
Arch mage144: *the sigil glows faintly*
XStrike8: I agree.
XStrike8: But we should make a note of this place.
T3chn0Namagomi: Correct.
T3chn0Namagomi: *starts up the stairs*
XStrike8: *follows behind, looking around cautiously*
THENinjaRabbi: *Ditto*
FFFan80: >.>;;; *keeps an eye behind the group as they head up*
T3chn0Namagomi: (AFK)
Arch mage144: *on the opposite side of the hall, at the top of the stairs, is another set of stairs, leading downwards*
FFFan80: ............
Arch mage144: *to the right is a furnished room*
XStrike8: *walks cautiously towards the room*
Arch mage144: *on Damian's left and right, there are doors*
THENinjaRabbi: *looks* More doors, eh?
XStrike8: Isn't it wonderful?
THENinjaRabbi: Hmm..how about you take the left, I take the right?
XStrike8: Fine. *walks over to the left door, and opens*
THENinjaRabbi: *opens the right door*
Arch mage144: *the door swings open, creaking very slightly...and Damian stares into a full bath, complete with a tub*
Arch mage144: *Squintz finds himself peering into a dimly lit storage room*
THENinjaRabbi: ...what did you get?
XStrike8: Interesting. o.o
XStrike8: Another bath.
XStrike8: Apparently this mage or whatever is very good to his guests.
FFFan80: ...this person must like to stay clean >_>;;;
THENinjaRabbi: Yes. Looks like a storage room over here.
XStrike8: *looks aroudn the bath for a medicine cabnet or something*
THENinjaRabbi: *walks into the storage room, looking around*
Arch mage144: *the bathroom has one cabinet, made of oak, and mounted against the wall*
XStrike8: Hmm...
XStrike8: *opens the cabinet*
Arch mage144: *Squintz notes that the storage room extends to his right...and that there are four creatures, apparently asleep, curled up on or next to boxes and chests*
Arch mage144: *the cabinet contains a jar of ointment, a bar of lye soap, a hand towel, and a toothbrush*
FFFan80: o.o; *...is still in the hall*
THENinjaRabbi: o.o IM: Quiet...
THENinjaRabbi: *tries to exit the room as quietly as he can*
XStrike8: Hmm... nothing of interest here.
XStrike8: *walks cautiously back out into the hall*
Arch mage144: *the floor creaks softly under Squintz's feet...*
THENinjaRabbi: IM: >_<
Arch mage144: *but none of the sleeping creatures appear to notice*
THENinjaRabbi: IM: Phew.
T3chn0Namagomi: (Back)
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: Wonderful...
THENinjaRabbi: *w* There's four creatures in there. Sleeping.
XStrike8: Hmm... where is that other fellow at, Sir Daniel. Still in that closet or whatever?
XStrike8: Ah. There you are. o.o *lowers his voice*
FFFan80: *w* o.o; ....wonderful...
XStrike8: *w* Did they look like they were guarding anything? -.-
THENinjaRabbi: *w* I didn't look too carefully. But based on what we've seen, probably.
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*Time to kill again, then?
FFFan80: ......
XStrike8: *w* If we can keep them asleep, we won't HAVE to kill them.
FFFan80: >_>;;; *w* ...shouldn't we avoid it if we can?
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*Pacifist
XStrike8: *w* Says the money-grubbing merc.
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*Better to eliminate the threat now than get stabbed in the back by it later
XStrike8: *w* in any case, why should we start a fight with them when we don't have to expend such energy?
XStrike8: *w* How much room is in there, by the way?
Arch mage144: (It's a long room. About 20 feet by 8 feet.)
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*I wish I brought a gas grenade...
XStrike8: *w* Actually that wouldn't be such a bad idea.
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*That way, they'd choke to death.
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*Stealth kill
XStrike8: *w* I'm sorry, but I don't see how leaving a trail of dead bodies that says "FIND US, PLEASE" helps to get us out of this place.
XStrike8: *w* But... *looks thoughtful for a moment*
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*They might be guarding something
XStrike8: *w* if stealth is what we need.....
XStrike8: *begins concentrating for the Creeping Darkness*
THENinjaRabbi: *w* what are you doing?
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*I've got an idea....
Arch mage144: *while he is still visible in the light, Damian feels his spell take effect*
Arch mage144: *he figures it is most likely dark enough in the storeroom to move unseen*
XStrike8: *goes towards the storeroom as silently as he can*
THENinjaRabbi: *wait, Sir Kamos. Let this man do what he planned...*
THENinjaRabbi: *w*
T3chn0Namagomi: *w*I'm just going to help. Don't think every trick of mine kills.
T3chn0Namagomi: *color
Arch mage144: *the floor creaks slightly under Damian's feet...*
XStrike8: *looks around for something, anything suspicious*
XStrike8: IM: Damn. e.e
Arch mage144: *no one notices*
Arch mage144: *the most obvious fixtures in the room are a pair of large cabinets on the other end of the room*
Arch mage144: *aside from that, most of the junk strewn about is merely wooden crates, boxes, and chests*
T3chn0Namagomi: *attempts to sneak in afterward, but for a different purpose*
XStrike8: *creeps towards the cabnets*
THENinjaRabbi: *w* SIR
Arch mage144: *as Damian approaches the creatures, even in the dim light he can see that they are draconians, as from earlier*
THENinjaRabbi: *!
Arch mage144: *he reaches the cabinets without difficulty...*
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: Wait....maybe I don't have to raise a fuss....if the rings have charm spells....then just maybe.......
T3chn0Namagomi: *attempts to sneak into the room*
Arch mage144: *...Kamos is unnoticed*
XStrike8: IM: Hmm... there's a thought... o.o Woo. He CAN think, folks!!!
T3chn0Namagomi: *tries to see if there's a position from which he can get one of the creatures into a chokehold*
XStrike8: IM: Just shut up. e.e;;;
XStrike8: *looks down at the Draconians for rings*
Arch mage144: *they are wearing rings...at least, those that Damian can see the clawed hands of are*
THENinjaRabbi: *watches from afar*
Arch mage144: *...Kamos could, if he wanted to, grab one of the creatures, and yes, attempt to choke it*
XStrike8: *looks up at Kamos*
XStrike8: *waves in hopes of getting his attention*
FFFan80: ...*watching all this from the hall, it seems* o.o;;
Arch mage144: *Damian is invisible...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *edges closer to the nearest draconian, and attempts to choke it*
Arch mage144: *...or close enough to it*
XStrike8: IM: Dammit. Forgot about that... >.<
FFFan80: O_@ *FACEFAULTS*
Arch mage144: *as soon as Kamos lays a finger on the draconican's neck...it awakes, hissing and screeching*
THENinjaRabbi: IM: IDIOT!
XStrike8: IM: Bah. Might as well go for it, seeing what he's trying to do. <.<
Arch mage144: *and the other three quickly follow suit*
XStrike8: *rushes towards the cabinets and opens them*
FFFan80: >.< IM: DAMMIT!!!!
T3chn0Namagomi: *gets his shotgun out, loads, and cocks*
Arch mage144: *the cabinets fly open*
FFFan80: IM: I say lock him in there with them e_e
T3chn0Namagomi: (I'm going to go for the first move)
Arch mage144: *a number of books fall out*
THENinjaRabbi: *draws his sword, and runs into the room*
Arch mage144: (You're going to get it, everyone roll init.)
THENinjaRabbi: e_e
*OnlineHost*: THENinjaRabbi rolled 2 6-sided dice: 6 1
FFFan80: IM: SHUTTUP!
*OnlineHost*: FFFan80 rolled 2 6-sided dice: 4 2
THENinjaRabbi: (11)
*OnlineHost*: XStrike8 rolled 2 6-sided dice: 1 4
XStrike8: (14)
FFFan80: *with the cover blown, Dan decides to take aggresive action*
FFFan80: Ok everyone...
FFFan80: >o< ...GET THE HELL OUT OF THE ROOM!
FFFan80: <_<;;; IM: Maybe we can lock them in somehow...
FFFan80: IM: Suuuure you can, not like they won't just break down the door. XP
FFFan80: 9\/9+ -\/-;
Arch mage144: (Kamos gets the first move.)
T3chn0Namagomi: *pulls the trigger on the shotgun, attempting to, well......you get the idea*
T3chn0Namagomi: (Shoot the nearest draconian)
XStrike8: IM: SHIT. >.<
THENinjaRabbi: Well, this certainly stinks...
FFFan80: *gets his weapon out again* <\/<;;;
Arch mage144: *the shotgun blast, which I might add is loud, obnoxious, and generally overpowering, tears into the nearest draconian, sending him sprawling across the floor, twitching like a wounded lizard tends to*
Arch mage144: (76 damage, to be precise.)
Arch mage144: (Damian.)
XStrike8: *runs over to the nearest draconian, and grabs the ring on his finger*
Arch mage144: *Damian yanks the ring off a nearby draconian's finger, and the creature appears stunned for a moment...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *concentrating on the ones who may be focusing on him*
Arch mage144: *...and then walks off and sits on a crate, a blank look in its eyes*
FFFan80: o\/o; *watches to see what happens*
FFFan80: o_o .........
Arch mage144: (Squintz)
THENinjaRabbi: ....
FFFan80: IM: ...the hell?
THENinjaRabbi: hmm..
XStrike8: DON'T KILL THEM ALL.
XStrike8: I'll Try to handle this...
THENinjaRabbi: *leaps at a draconian, aiming to slice off the ring hand*
T3chn0Namagomi: Who designated you the leader?!
XStrike8: IM: Keyword being "Try". Yeah. And if you get stabbed to death, I'm not paying your medical bills.
XStrike8: I don't see YOU having better ideas at the moment!!!
T3chn0Namagomi: *concentrating on the ones still...how do we say it, whole*
T3chn0Namagomi: Now's a bad time to try and remove all of those rings!
Arch mage144: *the hand comes off...and the ring with it*
Arch mage144: *the draconian spazzes out, hissing furiously at the hand wound...*
XStrike8: Yeah, as if the noise we're making with this fight is any better.
THENinjaRabbi: IM: I wish I could do something other than chop hands off...
Arch mage144: *...and breathes a jet of black flames at Squintz, enraged*
FFFan80: *just about fed up with Kamos by this point* >.<
THENinjaRabbi: GAH!
FFFan80: o_@;
T3chn0Namagomi: As if we have a choice!
XStrike8: WE WOULD IF YOU HADN'T WOKEN THEM UP!!!
T3chn0Namagomi: I was trying to remove their rings, damnit!
FFFan80: .....
FFFan80: ........
Arch mage144: *the elf feels sudden cold washing over him, a chill force sapping his strength and causing him to wince in pain...the energies seem to cut straight to his soul, leeching his very life force away*
T3chn0Namagomi: Now shut up!
Arch mage144: (39 damage.)
FFFan80: e_@ ...HOW DOES RINGING THEIR NECKS REMOVE THE GODDAMN RING?!?!?!
THENinjaRabbi: *falls to a knee* >_e
Arch mage144: *another draconian leaps at Kamos in rage, flashing a blade...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *focusing on the one that hasn't tried to kill him yet*
THENinjaRabbi: that...didn't...work too well...>_<
T3chn0Namagomi: *well, is now trying*
Arch mage144: *the blade shimmers as a glint of light reflects off the cold steel, and before Kamos can react, the sword cleaves him across the lower torso and thigh, drawing a spurt of blood*
Arch mage144: (24 damage.)
Arch mage144: *the draconian Kamos blasted writhes on the floor, bleeding from numerous induced orfices*
Arch mage144: (Daniel)
T3chn0Namagomi: >.<You...fucking...primitive...bitch...
Arch mage144: *the draconian flicks its tongue at Kamos cockily, a merciless gleam in its eye*
T3chn0Namagomi: *reloads the shotgun painfull*
T3chn0Namagomi: *painfully
FFFan80: <.<;; *tries to take advantage of Kamos' um... 'distraction', rushes the one that slashed and attempts to grab it's ring hand*
Arch mage144: *Dan grabs for the creature's claw...*
Arch mage144: *...and is unable to get a grip on the draconian, which hisses at the paladin*
FFFan80: o.o
Arch mage144: (Kamos.)
FFFan80: O_O;;; ...eeep
FFFan80: IM: Smoooooth move, genious >:P
T3chn0Namagomi: *cocks the shotgun, rushes in, and fires again at the draconian that attacked him*
Arch mage144: *Kamos lets loose a barrage of hot lead from his weapon...*
Arch mage144: *...and, despite the close range, in his anger and carelessness, the majority of the shot misses the draconian...*
Arch mage144: *...and Daniel Hyral finds himself thrown to the ground by a blast of shotgun pellets, numerous stings and a red hot pain ripping through his nerves, assaulting his senses with feelings of agony*
T3chn0Namagomi: Shit.
THENinjaRabbi: ...good...job.
FFFan80: AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >.<;;;;;;;;;;;;;
FFFan80: *THUD*
XStrike8: DAMMIT. eVe.
T3chn0Namagomi: Your fault for getting close to him.
FFFan80: ..@#$#@$@#$... >.<;;;;
Arch mage144: *at the moment, the right half of Dan's body is something like swiss cheese...*
Arch mage144: *it feels as though his jawbone may be broken*
FFFan80: IM: @_e; ...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, he will PAY for that... oh yessssssssssss.....
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: Damnit! I let my tendency to counterattack get out of hand!
FFFan80: >.<; *tries to move his mouth... but can't* IM: @$#@$@
THENinjaRabbi: Shoot. *begins chanting ahead of time*
FFFan80: ,>.<, IM: Hurt... oh Gods it @$@#$ing HURTS...
Arch mage144: (Damian)
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: He never liked me anyway.
FFFan80: IM: ....*censored for explicit content*
XStrike8: *changes to Encroaching Darkness stance(+5), and does yet another Round Kick*
Arch mage144: (To the one that Kamos attempted to shoot?)
XStrike8: (Yup)
T3chn0Namagomi: *attempting to take advantage of the larger room, puts the shotgun away, and attempts to open range between him and the draconian*
Arch mage144: *the draconian takes a kick to the head, recoiling sharply and hissing in pain and rage, but manages to recover*
Arch mage144: (Squintz.)
THENinjaRabbi: I can't take out the shot...but this might help...
THENinjaRabbi: *Touches the ball of healing energy to Dan's chest*
THENinjaRabbi: (Healmore)
Arch mage144: *as Squintz prepares to release his spell...*
FFFan80: >.e *one of Dan's eyes looks almost... ferral for a moment*
Arch mage144: *...a sudden discharge of mana ripples through the room and fades out like a candle with a snuffer placed over it*
THENinjaRabbi: ....
THENinjaRabbi: IM: Shit.
Arch mage144: *the spell fizzles out, little white sparks ejecting from Squintz's fingertips and vanishing without a trace*
THENinjaRabbi: >_<
FFFan80: e.e IM: ...That son of...
FFFan80: IM: ...bitch, he is in for a world of...
Arch mage144: *the handless draconian, rather pissed at Squintz for eviscerating his limb, claws violently at the paladin*
FFFan80: IM: ...f*&king suffering if I live through this he'll...
THENinjaRabbi: Gah! Leave me alone!
Arch mage144: *luckily, Squintz manages to parry the blow with his weapon*
FFFan80: IM: ...wish he'd never EXISTED... e.e.
Arch mage144: *the draconian that was just kicked in the head whirls on Damian and exhales a jet of black fire at the assassin...*
XStrike8: GAH. >.<
Arch mage144: *as the flames wash over Damian, he feels an unbearable cold tear through his body, as though he could never be warm again, much like the freezing chills of death itself...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Kamos takes out his rifle, loading and cocking it again, starting to aim at the draconian*
XStrike8: AAAAAAAAAAHHHH >.<
Arch mage144: *...even as the flames themselves subside, he feels cold, dull pains surging throughout, making concentration, or even standing, difficult...*
Arch mage144: *the draconian earlier blasted with a shotgun slug appears to have stopped moving*
Arch mage144: *and if Dan weren't so damn injured, he'd have a turn right now*
Arch mage144: (Kamos)
T3chn0Namagomi: *opens distance with the very lucky draconian, and then opens up with a shot from his rifle*
Arch mage144: *the very, very lucky draconian...is apparently not yet out of luck, and the shot whizzes over its shoulder harmlessly, impacting into the wall*
Arch mage144: (Damian can act, but at major penalties.)
XStrike8: *gets into Chasing Shadows stance and tries a weak punch at the draconian's face*
T3chn0Namagomi: *remembers something, and grabs the bust of the king*
Arch mage144: *Damian swings...and misses, the draconian leaping back and mocking him*
Arch mage144: (Squintz.)
THENinjaRabbi: IM: This is bad..
THENinjaRabbi: *aims and slashes at the handless draconian* >_<
T3chn0Namagomi: Daniel! Kick the one that's standing!
FFFan80: e.e .................
Arch mage144: *the slash connects, sweeping across the creature's torso, tearing its cloak and flaying open its belly*
T3chn0Namagomi: And has both of his hands!
Arch mage144: *despite its wounds, fueled by adrenaline the angered creature presses on, counterattacking with a vicious slash...*
FFFan80: *fortunately for Kamos, is too incapacitated to do anything*
Arch mage144: *but Squintz parries again*
THENinjaRabbi: >_o
Arch mage144: *the badly wounded...and very lucky...draconian from earlier slashes at Damian*
XStrike8: *tries to put his hands out to block* >.O;;;;
XStrike8: IM: This is it... Well... 's been nice knowin ya. No, not really.
Arch mage144: *luckily, Damian parries the blow, deflecting the incoming claw*
XStrike8: *chuckles* I see someone's still having fun.....
Arch mage144: (Dan can act, but at penalties.)
T3chn0Namagomi: Kick that one, Daniel!
FFFan80: IM: ...KILL HIM
FFFan80: e.e ..........
FFFan80: ....I......
T3chn0Namagomi: Distract it!
FFFan80: ....*struggles to chant*.... G...Godde...
FFFan80: IM: NO YOU $##@$ING MORON, MAKE HIM *SUFFER*
FFFan80: ......
FFFan80: -\/-;;;; dd....deesss, of L...Light, H...help...
FFFan80: *tries to cure Damian*
Arch mage144: *...and, despite Dan's efforts...the spell seems to have no effect whatsoever, and no goddess answers his prayers, only silence...*
Arch mage144: (Kamos.)
FFFan80: IM: ...YOU WEAK, PATHETIC WASTE OF LIFE e.e
FFFan80: IM: ..........
T3chn0Namagomi: *attempts to close in, and clock the very, very, very, very lucky draconian with the bust of the king*
Arch mage144: *Kamos clumsily attempts to smash in his opponent's face with that of his dearest and most hated enemy...*
Arch mage144: ...*and ends up missing completely*
T3chn0Namagomi: You really suck. *throws the bust onto the floor*
THENinjaRabbi: ...
Arch mage144: *the bust shatters into several smaller pieces as a result of the force*
FFFan80: e\/e ....*a fang almost seems to peak out a moment, before disappearing from his mouth*
Arch mage144: *apparently, the destruction and the downfall of "the king" failed to solve Kamos's problems after all*
Arch mage144: (Damian.)
XStrike8: This... is getting.... rediculous. e.e;;;;
THENinjaRabbi: I concur.
XStrike8: GUARDIAN SPIRIT... *Nakibe's black-and-white clone appears in front of Damian*. Yes?
XStrike8: Void. e.e
Arch mage144: *meanwhile, the draconian who had his ring removed by Damian sits, dazed and spaced out, on a crate labeled "hollyroot"*
Arch mage144: *Nakibe's shadow darts towards the very, very, very lucky draconian...*
Arch mage144: *...whose luck runs out as the illusion's fist impacts its skull, crushing it with brutal force*
Arch mage144: (Squintz!)
THENinjaRabbi: Let's end it. *goes for a killing blow to the remaining draconian*
Arch mage144: *Squintz brings his blade down mightily...and while he fails to kill the enemy in one swipe...he manages to connect with the beast's shoulder, tearing through and cleaving the entire arm off*
Arch mage144: *a jet of greenish-black ichor spurts from the wound, spraying the wounded Daniel in the face*
THENinjaRabbi: *winces at the pain he's causing the beast*
FFFan80: IM: ...eheeheh.... that little shit...
FFFan80: e.e IM: ...deserves it... he should loose EVERY Limb...
FFFan80: IM: ...on his @$#@$ing body...
Arch mage144: *having lost one hand, and his only good arm, the creature screeches and attempts to flee*
Arch mage144: (Dan doesn't have time to do anything, but Kamos can attempt a reflex shot if he wants.)
T3chn0Namagomi: *I'll take that shot, thank you*
XStrike8: *stumbles his way over to Kamos* e.e
XStrike8: What... The Hell... Did you THINK... YOU WERE DOING?!? eVe
Arch mage144: *unfortunately, Kamos misses, the shot hitting the door instead as the creature darts out, screaming in agony*
THENinjaRabbi: Indeed. That was an incredibly stupid move.
FFFan80: e.e .....*is strangely silent*
THENinjaRabbi: ..and that last shot wasn't necessary. The beast will bleed out from his wounds.
T3chn0Namagomi: I was attempting to choke them, and remove their rings one by one while doing so.
THENinjaRabbi: *attempts to heal Dan, with Healmore* Easy, sir.
XStrike8: e.e *looks away from Kamos for the moment*
Arch mage144: *as Squintz begins to power up his spell...it occurs to him that he isn't gathering any energy*
THENinjaRabbi: ...there's something the matter.
THENinjaRabbi: I can't heal Sir Daniel.
T3chn0Namagomi: ...
FFFan80: *stands* e.e
THENinjaRabbi: No! Sit!
THENinjaRabbi: don't waste your energy!
XStrike8: *aims a punch at Kamos' jaw*
T3chn0Namagomi: *watching Damian*
Arch mage144: *Kamos pulls his head back, avoiding the blow*
T3chn0Namagomi: Try that again, I dare you.
FFFan80: *walks over to Kamos* e.e
T3chn0Namagomi: *loading and cocking rifle*
XStrike8: I assume that they teach you to SHOOT your friends wherever you trained at? eVe
T3chn0Namagomi: Friend? More like traitor to me, if you attacked me.
THENinjaRabbi: Sir! Sit down!
XStrike8: And believe me, if I try that again you won't see it coming early enough to keep it from KNOCKING YOU OUT. e.e
FFFan80: *His arm suddenly shoots out, trying to squeeze his neck* e\/e
XStrike8: No one asked your fucking opinion of me, you understand? e.e
Arch mage144: *...and Dan's hand closes around Kamos's neck, choking the mercenary*
XStrike8: o.o What the?
THENinjaRabbi: Sir! Stop this!
T3chn0Namagomi: o.o.......-v-
XStrike8: *grabs at Daniel*
T3chn0Namagomi: *slashes at Dan with a claw*
THENinjaRabbi: *attempts to pull Dan off Kamos*
FFFan80: e\/e++ *grip tightens, his nails going dark, small blue streaks appearing in his hair, eyes going light blue and feral*
FFFan80: YOU... HURT...ME...YOU...FUCK....
THENinjaRabbi: O_O What the?!
Arch mage144: *Kamos scratches Dan's cheek, drawing streaks of blood left behind by his nails...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *obviously can't speak*
FFFan80: >\/e;; *Hisses*
T3chn0Namagomi: *attempts to aim his rifle at Dan*
THENinjaRabbi: O_O NO!
XStrike8: HELL NO. e.e
THENinjaRabbi: *uses his sword to attempt to knock the rifle away*
XStrike8: IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT YOU IDIOT?
Arch mage144: *Squintz succeeds, and Kamos's rifle goes flying across the room*
XStrike8: FOR SOMEONE TO KILL YOU?
XStrike8: *grabs at Daniel's arms*
XStrike8: *...hoping to pin them behind his back*
T3chn0Namagomi: *attempts to kick Dan somewhere....very...sensitive*
Arch mage144: *Damian manages to free Kamos from the choke hold and pin Dan*
XStrike8: CALM DOWN, DANIEL.
FFFan80: >.e++++ >.<+++ *bears his teeth at Damian, tiny fangs visible* LET ME FUCKING GO!!!! e\/e+++
Arch mage144: ...*and Dan takes a clawed kick to the groin*
XStrike8: JUST CALM DOWN, OKAY?
FFFan80: O_@
FFFan80: ........
THENinjaRabbi: >_>
FFFan80: ..........
FFFan80: *THUD* @_@
THENinjaRabbi: Dammit. If we can't even work together, we're screwed.
Arch mage144: *the enraged paladin collapses, in dire pain*
dragonclawsedw has entered the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: ....Today...is....hell....
dragonclawsedw: (GO DANIEL GO!)
Arch mage144: (...Daniel is unconscious.)
dragonclawsedw: (;_; Daniel dear....)
XStrike8: (... and in great pain.)
FFFan80: (...he may not be 'performing' for a good while >_>;; )
dragonclawsedw: (@Vo YOUR ASS IS GRASS KAMOS!)
FFFan80: (...it almost was ^_^; )
FFFan80: (IM: ...*cackle*)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Self-defense.)
XStrike8: LOOK, YOU.
XStrike8: I don't MIND that those things woke up. e.e;;;
FFFan80: @_@;;; *..is just NOT doing anything for a good while*
XStrike8: But how could you SHOOT him like that? eVe
T3chn0Namagomi: I was aiming for the draconian.
T3chn0Namagomi: (And the GM hates me!)
THENinjaRabbi: Why did you TRY when it was so close to him?
T3chn0Namagomi: Excuse me....he got himself close to it after it attacked me.
XStrike8: Excuse you, you could've at LEAST known enough to not use a damned SHOTGUN for something THAT CLOSE?
T3chn0Namagomi: What did you expect me to use? The rifle's not made for close engagements
XStrike8: You see, it's pearls of wisdom like THAT that may show why you want that Ash fellow DEAD. e.e Apparently ANY competition would be better than you. e.e
T3chn0Namagomi: Not necessarily.
XStrike8: And think about THIS, Bright boy.
XStrike8: I was in that room as well. What made you so sure that you wouldn't've hit ME while you were playing Rambo, huh? e.e
T3chn0Namagomi: I would've had options if it weren't for the fact that I have chest pains, and couldn't concentrate enough to cast anything
XStrike8: -.- Whatever.
XStrike8: But...
XStrike8: GAH. *clutches his chest, which still hurts from the lovely breath attack from before*
XStrike8: -.- Shit....
XStrike8: *plops down on the ground*
XStrike8: *chuckles softly* I don't know how this trip could get any worse...
dragonclawsedw: (*a beholder attacks*)
Arch mage144: (XD)
XStrike8: (Damian: Well Shi...*stoned*)
THENinjaRabbi: Don't say that. From my experience, it WILL get worse.
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeah.
XStrike8: But we're inside a damned house full of who knows what...
XStrike8: Fighting dragon-things and blue dwarves.
THENinjaRabbi: ...true. But there's always something lurking. Like now, I can't use magic.
XStrike8: And ourselves. That's worth remembering too.
THENinjaRabbi: ...hmm..
XStrike8: *laughing wildly*
T3chn0Namagomi: I can't even chant a spell now.
XStrike8: Heheheh. You were saying?
THENinjaRabbi: *goes back to the cabinet Damian opened*
XStrike8: Our only OTHER healer is sitting here with half his chest blown off.
THENinjaRabbi: Let's see if all that trouble was worth it...
XStrike8: And you wonder why I'd say that? e.e
XStrike8: I'd HOPE we hit the bottom. e.e
Arch mage144: *Dan slowly regains consciousness...*
FFFan80: -_-; ....*moans*
THENinjaRabbi: *looks at the books that fell for anything*
FFFan80: >.<;; *winces, grabbing at his shot side*
Arch mage144: *Squintz spots a scrap of parchment*
THENinjaRabbi: *picks it up*
Arch mage144: *two of them, in fact*
THENinjaRabbi: *picks them both up then*
Arch mage144: *one reads "the elven," and the other says "the thrall"*
FFFan80: *gets to his feet, looks like a total wreck*
Arch mage144: *"my thrall," excuse me*
Arch mage144: *Squintz senses something...there's an enchantment on this room*
Arch mage144: *...and it's soaking up all the mana flow with the exception of energy from the negative end of the spectrum*
THENinjaRabbi: ...Hm.
THENinjaRabbi: ...I think we found two more parts to this command phrase.
THENinjaRabbi: ..and there's an enchantment on this room.
THENinjaRabbi: Hmmm...
XStrike8: What... kind... of Enchantment
XStrike8: ?
FFFan80: e.<; *...can't... really say anything*
THENinjaRabbi: It's sucking up our spells.
T3chn0Namagomi: Not like it matters to me. I can't cast
FFFan80: ..........e\/e+
THENinjaRabbi: ...I think shadow magic will get through.
XStrike8: Best we leave, then.
FFFan80: *nods in agreement*
T3chn0Namagomi: I agree.
THENinjaRabbi: *nods*
T3chn0Namagomi: *and vacates the room*
FFFan80: *stumbles out* >.>;
T3chn0Namagomi: Wait....there WAS a door we missed
FFFan80: e.e ........
FFFan80: *ignores Kamos, winces at the pain as he tries to chant* ...I..Ishtar... >.<;;;;
FFFan80: *Cure again, Damian*
Arch mage144: *a whisp of holy energy flits through the air towards Damian, healing some of his wounds...*
Arch mage144: *...and Dan passes out from overexertion*
XStrike8: *gets up and walks out of the room*
XStrike8: No no, Heal yourself. -.-
FFFan80: ....gah.... *THUD* ~.~
dragonclawsedw: (Too late...O_o; )
XStrike8: I'm fine.
XStrike8: SIR. *turns towards Squintz*
T3chn0Namagomi: ...I'm sure as hell not carrying him
XStrike8: *glares hard at Kamos* No one asked you to.
Arch mage144: (Damian is now at 22, Dan is at -1.)
THENinjaRabbi: *nods*
THENinjaRabbi: *touches his hands to Dan, and uses Healmore*
dragonclawsedw: ( ;_; My poor Daniel!
Arch mage144: *Dan gains consciousness...and some of his jaw fractures repair themselves*
Arch mage144: *it is no longer excruciatingly painful for him to open his mouth and or move his jaw*
FFFan80: -_-;;;
FFFan80: <_<;; ...Thanks s...sir...
T3chn0Namagomi: ...
THENinjaRabbi: No problem, Sir.
XStrike8: If you don't mind me asking, Sir... but what IS your name? o.o
THENinjaRabbi: Mine?
XStrike8: I never got around to asking it.
THENinjaRabbi: Call me Squintz.
XStrike8: Squintz. Interesting name.
THENinjaRabbi: Yes, it is.
XStrike8: So. Where in this wonderful house are we going to visit next?
THENinjaRabbi: Somewhere safe, preferably.
XStrike8: Another bathroom, maybe?
Arch mage144: *the party is standing in the living room...there is a door across the room, an open door to a bathroom near the stairs, stairs down across from the stairs they came up, and the stairs they came up*
FFFan80: ..I...I... don't... wish to sound weak...
XStrike8: I daresay that there likely isn't a safe place in this whole mansion.
FFFan80: ~_~ ..b..but perhaps we should leave... and regroup.
XStrike8: Perhaps we should. -.-
THENinjaRabbi: hm. *doesn't seem to like that idea*
FFFan80: >.> *notices*
XStrike8: At the rate things are going today...
FFFan80: v.v ... I don't want to leave either, Sir Squintz... but look at us.
XStrike8: We'll all be dead by sunrise.
XStrike8: That thought doesn't appeal to me at all.
FFFan80: -_- .........
FFFan80: IM: ...at least lock the @#$@ing Valthi in here if you're gonna turn tail and run...
FFFan80: -\/-;;; .......
T3chn0Namagomi: ....
T3chn0Namagomi: You're telling me.
Arch mage144: *the pitterpatter of the rain outside provides a bit of background white noise*
THENinjaRabbi: I do not like giving up.
FFFan80: ...neither do I, Squintz.
FFFan80: >.>; ...but think about it... what good willl we do if we're all killed?
XStrike8: I rarely let missions go....
XStrike8: But it's better to live to fight another day, isn't it?
FFFan80: o.o; And I'm not saying completely give up, I'm saying rest up and then come back.
THENinjaRabbi: But we are so close!
FFFan80: <.< Indeed Damian.
THENinjaRabbi: *holds out the three parchment pieces*
FFFan80: ...say...
THENinjaRabbi: We have most of the command phrase, I think.
FFFan80: Did that book say how many there actually are?
THENinjaRabbi: no.
FFFan80: v.v;
FFFan80: >.> ...what *do* we have so far?
THENinjaRabbi: We have.."My Thrall, The Elven, and Race."
XStrike8: *wryly* Several bruises, arrowheads, broken bones...
FFFan80: <.<;;;
T3chn0Namagomi: ....
XStrike8: But... -.-
T3chn0Namagomi: I'm guessing it's a little like...
XStrike8: Wait.
FFFan80: ....?
XStrike8: My Thrall... The Elven... Race?
T3chn0Namagomi: "The Elven Race"...something....."Thrall"
THENinjaRabbi: Yeah.
XStrike8: Could we possibly have it all?
THENinjaRabbi: It IS possible.
FFFan80: ....I don't know.
THENinjaRabbi: But we can't really be certain.
FFFan80: >_>; ...it doesn't sound like a sentence to me.
XStrike8: True.
XStrike8: I certainly wish I had an Aurora right about now.
THENinjaRabbi: ...aurora?
XStrike8: At least that'd help us through this place.
T3chn0Namagomi: Aurora?
Arch mage144: *Damian notes that, among other wounds, a lot of his skin has turned blue/black, as though frostbitten*
XStrike8: Oh, it's some sort of drug. Supposedly makes it easier to concentrate magical energies.
THENinjaRabbi: ah.
T3chn0Namagomi: ...
FFFan80: ...oh my... o.o;;
XStrike8: v.v;; At least there's one advantage to this...
XStrike8: I can now frighten small children.
dragonclawsedw: (XD)
THENinjaRabbi: ...okay. I think we SHOULD go.
XStrike8: *chuckles a bit*
FFFan80: >_>;;; IM: And I can sing in the choir for a bit now too... e_e+++ *GLARE at Kamos*
THENinjaRabbi: You're right. We're in no condition.
dragonclawsedw: (Solis: O_O EEEK! *runs from Damian*)
T3chn0Namagomi: Great....now what the hell are we going to do?
THENinjaRabbi: Leave.,
FFFan80: Indeed.
THENinjaRabbi: Then we'll come back tomorrow. RIGHT?
FFFan80: ...we'll see.
T3chn0Namagomi: I can't use magic, one of our healers had to get gung-ho and try to melee something....
FFFan80: >_>;; If we're too injured, maybe we can find some help...
FFFan80: .........
XStrike8: Kamos. e.e Just Shut up.
FFFan80: e_e ...............
FFFan80: IM: ... one good kick and a slam of a door, and he can get what's coming too him... leave him to rot here...
FFFan80: >_<
XStrike8: Well? -.-
FFFan80: I say leave v.v
THENinjaRabbi: Yes...
THENinjaRabbi: I think it's our only option. v_v
FFFan80: -_- .........
Arch mage144: *thunder crashes outside*
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeah....like one night will do us much...
dragonclawsedw: (DUN DUN DUUUN!)
T3chn0Namagomi: ...and we're supposed to walk out in this thunderstorm?
FFFan80: IM: ...weee, maybe we'll get struck by lighting too while we're at it >.<
XStrike8: It's up to you if you want to stay HERE with the angry Dragon-people.
FFFan80: ...pardon my language...
FFFan80: v.v ...but this SUCKS.
FFFan80: -_-; Does anyone know how far we are from that town?
XStrike8: Not sure.
T3chn0Namagomi: And I don't care if you say "sucks" or not
FFFan80: ......
FFFan80: e\/e ...I didn't... *twitch* ...ask YOU.
THENinjaRabbi: ...Break it up.
T3chn0Namagomi: Fine, fine. Looks as if nobody cares anymore. Racist.
FFFan80: ....*TWITCH*
Arch mage144: (o_O)
XStrike8: o.O
XStrike8: Uhh.. where'd THAT come from?
THENinjaRabbi: o_O I'm a racist?
T3chn0Namagomi: No
T3chn0Namagomi: It appears that everyone seems to hate the chimera, though, so....
FFFan80: ...WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!
FFFan80: >.<;;; *winces and holds jaw*
T3chn0Namagomi: Everyone's telling me to shut up, et cetera, et cetera.
FFFan80: ...it has NOTHING to f*&KING do with you being a chimera.
THENinjaRabbi: ...
FFFan80: It has to do with you being a BLOODY MORON!
XStrike8: I'd say it has more to do with you personally doing and saying dumb things. e.e;;;
FFFan80: ...*pants* >.<; ...the hell with it...
T3chn0Namagomi: Moron? Or is that just questioning my way of doing things not being in line with yours?
FFFan80: >\/> Let the damn lighting fry me to a crisp, I'm getting the hell outta here before I do something I'll regret...
FFFan80: *starts off*
XStrike8: I do believe it is time we left this place. *goes towards where he thinks the front door is.
T3chn0Namagomi: *rolls his eyes*
THENinjaRabbi: *Follows, and stuff*
T3chn0Namagomi: *follows reluctantly*
T3chn0Namagomi: IM:Why did I have to get stuck with these assholes?
Arch mage144: *after a minute of walking, the group reaches the front door*
FFFan80: ...finally... -_-
THENinjaRabbi: IM: Watch, it's locked. 9_9
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: I know this can't be THIS easy
XStrike8: *tries to open the door*
Arch mage144: *the door refuses to open*
FFFan80: ..........
XStrike8: Nothing new about this.
T3chn0Namagomi: Oh, how did I expect this to happen?
THENinjaRabbi: ...superb.
FFFan80: *THUDS his forehead into the nearby wall* >.<
XStrike8: -.-
XStrike8: I feel loved now.
THENinjaRabbi: Well...no choice now.
T3chn0Namagomi: Well, we should probably deal with these asses in here, then
XStrike8: But can we? -.-
T3chn0Namagomi: Do we have a choice?
XStrike8: No.
T3chn0Namagomi: So, we'll have to.
FFFan80: ...how's this...
FFFan80: Let's check out that sigil door with what we have.
FFFan80: Not like we're gonna be safe anywhere in this place... -_-;
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeah
THENinjaRabbi: I'm okay with that idea.
XStrike8: Works for me.
T3chn0Namagomi: Well, wait
T3chn0Namagomi: There was one door we missed
Arch mage144: (More than one, actually.)
XStrike8: Are you interested in tangling with MORE of those things now?
T3chn0Namagomi: *walks to the room with 5 doors in it*
Arch mage144: (One upstairs, one downstairs, and a set of stairs down from the 2nd floor that you haven't explored. Plus that one.)
Arch mage144: *Kamos is in the hallway with the five doors*
T3chn0Namagomi: As I said, do we have a choice?
Arch mage144: *the only one he hasn't been in is the one on the far right end of the hallway*
FFFan80: Wait.
XStrike8: *follows Kamos* Correct me if I'm wrong, bue we HAVE searched here, haven't we?
T3chn0Namagomi: *carefully opens the unchecked door*
FFFan80: WAIT!
THENinjaRabbi: >_K
THENinjaRabbi: *<
THENinjaRabbi: *braces for angry dwarves/draconians*
FFFan80: e\/e+++ IM: ...we're going to @#$#@ing die... >.<+++
Arch mage144: *Kamos peers into a room with a tiled, marble floor and four ornate pillars*
XStrike8: -.-;; IM: YOU set this up, didn't you? Not me. ^_^;;;
Arch mage144: *on the left is a door*
FFFan80: IM: ...if we die, he's going with us e_e
XStrike8: IM: Although it IS kinda fun to watch you allwander through this funplex. ^O^
Arch mage144: *it's up against the same wall as the entry door, indicating that it's probably a closet*
XStrike8: IM: Thank you for your concern. e.e;;;
T3chn0Namagomi: Hmmm.......
T3chn0Namagomi: *walks in, watching for potential threats
T3chn0Namagomi: *
Arch mage144: *nothing jumps out at Kamos and bites him on the ankles*
XStrike8: *follows behind Kamos*
Arch mage144: *Kamos notes an inscription on one of the pillars...*
XStrike8: IM: Well, he hasn't been hurt yet. That's a good sign. Yeah, but good for who? e.e;;;;
T3chn0Namagomi: *checks the inscription to see if it can be read, and what it is*
Arch mage144: *the inscription reads..."hidden by the sharpest wit"*
FFFan80: *reads* o.o
FFFan80: ...could that be part of it? >_>?
Arch mage144: *near the base of the column is an indentation that looks like it could be pressed*
Arch mage144: *Dan notices that the other pillars also have inscriptions*
FFFan80: o.o?
XStrike8: What's it say?
FFFan80: >.> *goes over to the nearest one* 9.9 *reads*
Arch mage144: *"treasure is concealed within"*
FFFan80: 9.9 ...hmmm....
XStrike8: Hmm?
FFFan80: >.> *goes to check another*
Arch mage144: *all of the pillars have similar indentations*
XStrike8: What're you doing? Did you find something?
FFFan80: <.< These all have inscriptions on them.
Arch mage144: *Dan reads the pillar inscription--"cutting trickery"*
THENinjaRabbi: hmm...
FFFan80: >.> *reads the last one*
Arch mage144: *"a piece of the puzzle"*
XStrike8: They do, do they?
dragonclawsedw: (THE WORLD IS SQUARE!)
XStrike8: What do you see?
FFFan80: "Hidden by the shapest wit / treasure is concealed within / cutting trickery / a piece of the puzzle*
T3chn0Namagomi: Hmmm....
T3chn0Namagomi: I think I get it....
FFFan80: Each of em seem to have something to push in too... 6.6
XStrike8: -.- The sharpest wit is Rapier wit.
XStrike8: Huh? a button on each?
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeah
XStrike8: Sounds like fun.
THENinjaRabbi: I suppose we should hit the buttons..
T3chn0Namagomi: Push them in order that the phrase would work....
THENinjaRabbi: but I don't like that trickery part.
XStrike8: I suppose we shouldn't.
FFFan80: ...but in what order? <.>?
XStrike8: Wait.
XStrike8: Who said they ALL had to be pressed?
T3chn0Namagomi: ??
FFFan80: Hmmm....
XStrike8: Or any of them.
T3chn0Namagomi: True...
XStrike8: Which one was it that said something about "Treasure"?
T3chn0Namagomi: Let's come back to it later
FFFan80: <.< ...I'd say go for "treasure is concealed within" and "a piece of the puzzle"
FFFan80: >.>; ...the other two seem to imply a trap...
XStrike8: Rapier Wit. Isn't that clever. e.e;;;
T3chn0Namagomi: I say we come back to it later
XStrike8: But there's likely a piece of the inscription here.
FFFan80: ...oh, NOW you want to ignore the room? e_e;
XStrike8: So why wait?
T3chn0Namagomi: Not ignore
T3chn0Namagomi: Check the door out first
FFFan80: ...why are we even still looking around?
T3chn0Namagomi: *walks over to the closet door*
T3chn0Namagomi: *carefully opens it*
FFFan80: o\/o We CAN'T stand up to anymore surprises, we should check the sigil door before...
FFFan80: ......e\/e+++
Arch mage144: *the closet is empty*
FFFan80: ...Damian...
XStrike8: Yes?
FFFan80: Did any of the rooms we pass have windows to the outside?
T3chn0Namagomi: Never mind that...
XStrike8: Not that I can remember...
Arch mage144: *there's a window in this room, on the back wall*
FFFan80: o.o
THENinjaRabbi: ...
FFFan80: I say we break it open and get out.
FFFan80: >\/> ...before SOMETHING gets us all killed e_e
THENinjaRabbi: Whatever you wish.
XStrike8: ... if it works...
FFFan80: *take a wild guess who's getting glared at*
Arch mage144: (Squintz, durh.)
THENinjaRabbi: (I hope you aren't serious.)
Arch mage144: (I'm not XD)
dragonclawsedw: (Squintz is such a troublemaker XP)
T3chn0Namagomi: 9.9
FFFan80: *gets his weapon out* <\/<
FFFan80: o\/o *tries to hit the window*
Arch mage144: *the window breaks, being made of glass*
XStrike8: Good... Good.
FFFan80: 6.6 *tries to break away as much of the sharp parts as he can*
XStrike8: *peeks through the window*
Arch mage144: *Dan succeeds*
Arch mage144: *chances are, it would have been easier to open the window...*
Arch mage144: *...or try, anyway*
FFFan80: *Dan is too upset to care*
T3chn0Namagomi: *peers through*
FFFan80: *...well, for now, maybe he will later*
Arch mage144: *Kamos gets his head rained on*
THENinjaRabbi: rainy.
FFFan80: ...I guess we're leaving...
T3chn0Namagomi: (How big is the window?)
T3chn0Namagomi: (AFK, btw)
Arch mage144: (Big enough to climb out, but Kamos' wings won't fit.)
XStrike8: *looks DOWN out of the window*
Arch mage144: *it's on the first floor, so it's like a 6 foot drop*
FFFan80: ........
FFFan80: 6.6; ...if we hang over before we drop... it shouldn't be *too* bad... I think...?
Arch mage144: *not likely to hurt at all, in fact*
XStrike8: Hmm... I can live with that.
FFFan80: ...guess I'll go first, if that's ok with all of you. o.o;
THENinjaRabbi: fine by me.
THENinjaRabbi: v_V
XStrike8: If you don't mind, I would like to go first.
FFFan80: o.o
FFFan80: ...if you want, Damian.
T3chn0Namagomi: I think I saw a door leading outside. I think I'll use that instead.
T3chn0Namagomi: A glass door, I mean
XStrike8: *makes his way into the window opening*
Arch mage144: *Damian has no difficulties*
T3chn0Namagomi: ....
XStrike8: *jumps*
T3chn0Namagomi: *walks back to the main room*
FFFan80: 6.6 *checks if Damian is ok*
Arch mage144: *Kamos is...in the main room*
Arch mage144: *Damian is fine*
XStrike8: C'mon down
T3chn0Namagomi: *investigates that door (I think it's glass or something) in the back*
FFFan80: Ok...
FFFan80: o.o;;; *attempts to do the same thing*
Arch mage144: *there is a glass door in the back, which Kamos can see leads out to what appears to be a greenhouse porch*
Arch mage144: *there are numerous plants*
T3chn0Namagomi: *carefully opens it*
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: I think I'm on my own for this one....
Arch mage144: *the door opens, and Kamos is hit by a steamy burst of air as he enters the greenhouse*
Arch mage144: *Dan climbs down with no problem*
THENinjaRabbi: IM: I don't wanna go...
FFFan80: *plop*
Arch mage144: *...but now he's getting rained on*
XStrike8: You allright?
FFFan80: 9.9 ...Squintz?
Arch mage144: *he slips and falls on his ass in the mud*
FFFan80: >.> ...well, I'm not worse ^_^;
FFFan80: *PLOP* >_@
T3chn0Namagomi: (XD)
FFFan80: ....I stand corrected.... e_@;;;
XStrike8: Sir Daniel *hurries to help him up*
FFFan80: ...or sit, in this case....
T3chn0Namagomi: O.o
T3chn0Namagomi: Woah....that's different.
T3chn0Namagomi: *starts to look around, being cautious about anything that could be dangerous*
THENinjaRabbi: *looks out the window*
Arch mage144: *the room is filled with enormous, leafy, green plants of various varieties*
FFFan80: *helped up* -_-;; ...thanks...
Arch mage144: *not being a botanist or gardener, Kamos doesn't recognize any of them*
FFFan80: 9.< *looks up, blinking at the occasional raindrops* ...Squintz?
XStrike8: Well, Sir Squintz?
dragonclawsedw: (You obtained herb!)
XStrike8: (Woo. "Herb!!")
T3chn0Namagomi: Well......nothing here.....
Arch mage144: *a number of vines on the other end of the greenhouse appear to be moving, very slowly*
T3chn0Namagomi: *moves closer up, carefully, to get a better look*
Arch mage144: *before Kamos can blink, a pair of thick, ropelike vines erupt from the greenery and wrap around his body, squeezing so tightly he has difficulty breathing and pinning his arms to his sides*
Arch mage144: *a third vine, seemingly from nowhere, slaps him upside the head rather hard, causing the mercenary to see spots*
T3chn0Namagomi: IM:Shit, shit, shit........
T3chn0Namagomi: *tries to see where the vines are coming from*
Arch mage144: *the greenery obscures any sort of roots or source for the vines*
T3chn0Namagomi: IM:Now or never........
T3chn0Namagomi: (Uhh....where do the vines stop wrapping around Kamos' body?)
THENinjaRabbi: IM: I'm not going.
THENinjaRabbi: *goes back to the main hall*
Arch mage144: (They're around his midsection. His arms are pinned down. From about the top of his chest up and from his waist down, he's free.)
FFFan80: 9.9 ...Squintz... is something wrong? We shouldn't waste any more ti...
FFFan80: .........
FFFan80: 9_9;;; ....ack.
THENinjaRabbi: Sir Kamos?
THENinjaRabbi: (That was IM.)
XStrike8: Where're you going?
FFFan80: ...he went back in >.<
XStrike8: We finally can get OUT of this place?
XStrike8: Damnit. >.<
FFFan80: *sigh*
THENinjaRabbi: *looks at the glass door*
T3chn0Namagomi: *concentrates, and focuses....attempting to get a shadow to wedge in between his own body and the vines*
FFFan80: .........
FFFan80: >_>;;; ...what the heck do we do now? @_@;
T3chn0Namagomi: (Shadow Shape)
Arch mage144: *Kamos succeeds to wedge a shadow between the vines and himself...and they stop constricting him. However, he feels that they will soon break the shadow barrier*
FFFan80: IM: leave to two morons in there, duh. XP
FFFan80: >.<;
T3chn0Namagomi: *attempts to wriggle loose of the vines now*
THENinjaRabbi: *runs through the door*
THENinjaRabbi: Sir Kamos!
XStrike8: Dammit. >.<
THENinjaRabbi: *looks at the plants, and is reminded of an old friend*
XStrike8: *climbs up towards the window*
FFFan80: *thinks*
THENinjaRabbi: Xzar'il...GRAAAAAHHH!
FFFan80: *tries to help Damian up* 9.<
THENinjaRabbi: *wields his sword, and starts tearing down all plants in his way*
THENinjaRabbi: *moving or not*
Arch mage144: *Kamos manages to squeeze loose...*
Arch mage144: ...*and Squintz makes tossed salad of the vines, numerous shrubs, bushes, and a trellis of elvish spider ivy*
THENinjaRabbi: eVE
T3chn0Namagomi: *and now inhales......and then exhales the famous mist-spray breath weapon*
THENinjaRabbi: *stops for a second*
