Topic: The Trilogy War
Subject: Dislocated jaw = no spells...
"I take it back, BBQ DOES NOT MEAN BBQ OF ME!!!" Niamedris shouts mentally, his fur very much singed, making the cat look as though he had survived a volcanic eruption.
Haila fared no better, and can barely concentrate with the pain she is in. She is slumped on the floor, with a sol-sized pain in her leg keeping her from moving much. There is also a tingly feeling along the whole lower portion of her head, and she can't bring herself to talk. An analytical part of Haila's mind murmurs, No spellcasting for you for now., but the rest of Haila's mind hardly hears as the signals of pain just keep coming from her body. If she opened her eyes, she would probably see she was fairly burnt as well, but she was too busy coping to bring herself to open her eyes in the first place.
At last, Haila set her mind to 'ignore' enough of the pain to open one eye. Immediately afterwards she wishes she hadn't. The room seems to wheel around her, blurred, as she tries to focus on something. Eventually it settles on the one thing above her that's dynamic: that pulsing azure 'heart'.
Gingerly, Haila reaches upward with one hand, with one finger extended outward to redraw the symbol.
There is a brief spark in the air, seemingly from nowhere, and the rune within the circle reappears. It charges yet another flaming sphere, which Haila hits with the palm of her hand, sending it, multiplying into five, towards the 'heart' above.
Afterwards, gingerly and tentatively, she reaches into her backpack to find a little bottle that's half full. She downs the drought, and waits...
((Finishing off that potion of extra healing that's half full that you list in Haila's inventory...))

Topic: You Filthy Little Thief!!!
Subject: Heh, what? Want me to steal your cookie too?
It felt familiar, the way the person had grabbed Ocyari's shoulder. Kind of like the other times when Ocyari was barely caught snatching a cookie, and there's always someone to try to grab her from behind. Heh, they didn't know who they were dealing with. Still, at least the action made Ocyari feel wide awake now, alert and ready as a bit of adrenaline flows through her body.
"Princess?" Ocyari scoffs, "Yeah right, of what kingdom?"
Ocyari is smart enough to know she won't break the grip with strength, especially considering her relatively small stature, but that doesn't mean she didn't know what to do. Ocyari seems to run forward, and she grabs underneath the offending arm for a bit more leverage. Of course, with the hand this causes her to begin to flip, which is exactly what she intended. She brings one leg in as she does so, the other held outward to likely kick the man in either the head or shoulder. At the impact, Ocyari lets go of the arm, and kicks out with the other leg, catching the man in the chest. If the impulse knocks her out of the hand's grip, she holds out her arms to cushion her fall as she lets herself roll forward into a dive-roll, immediately ending the roll with a leap to a standing position. She steps quickly, trying to put as much distance between the two as possible, all the while bringing her bow out, ready to use.
((Breaking the grapple via escape artist check paired with a move to the centre of the group if possible while drawing her bow  ))

Topic: Witchcraft rpg
Subject: You are not being very clear
Obviously Mundanes are out of the question, however, you do not address exactly where the boost goes. From your wording, it only goes to the strictly Gifted characters; Lesser Gifted and Bast do not apply. Please clarify.

Topic: Witchcraft rpg
Subject: Concerns...
You say you're going to give one type of character an extra amount of points, but how is that supposed to balance with the other types?
I'm sorry if I seem out of line, however, it makes me very uneasy; I can see there being a smaller benefit or boon that you might give, but something like this could very well unhinge game balance...
To better illustrate this effect, consider the following.
The Gifted traits as defined in the book (in terms of points) have:
-15 Attribute Points
-10 Quality Points
-25 Skill Points
-30 Metaphysics Points
Increasing the amount of points available by 15 and distributing them, and comparing the result to the Lesser Gifted type easily results with this:
-20 Attribute Points for both
-25 Quality Points for both
-30 Skill Points for both
-15 Metaphysics Points for the Lesser Gifted, 30 Points for Gifted
That is enough of a change that playing a Lesser Gifted becomes pointless, the Mundane type frowned upon (also due to the need for metaphysics), and the Bast type underpowered compared to the Gifted!
I suggest you either re-evaluate what you are doing, whether it will be to reduce the boon you wish to provide, find a better balance to the game by providing the boost to ALL character types, or eliminate the boost altogether.

Topic: Forgotten Realms: The Unsung Heroes
Subject: Better move fast...
"This doesn't look good." Linnix murmurs under her breath as she quickly grabs her bow and arrows. If that explosion didn't alert the whole keep, she didn't know what would.
"Dylan, we have to move now!" She calls behind, just in case in the cart Dylan didn't see, although chances were good he still did.
Taking a leap off the cart, Linnix quickly runs after Aelistae and Intella. There is no more time for planning; Linnix only hopes that after infiltrating the keep there might be somewhere to stop momentarily to perhaps refine their plans more...

You missed regarding this in your update, Hammer, but my most recent update is at the bottom of the previous page (where I've found is usually missed quite often); you in particular might find the proceedings interesting...

Topic: Welcome or Not!
Subject: Memories
Sen sits comfortably, her eyes clouded while staring out the window and into the sky. The conversation in the background, although merely in the next room, sounds as though it is a world away, only whispers to her ears.
She misses the forest, the one which holds her own, small house. Was it even there any more? Darkside might have very well destroyed it... it is a sobering thought.
It was said that sylphs are wanderers. Well, it is true to a degree, but as there is variety among humans and elves, there is variety among sylphs as well. Sen liked her house; she was content with her home, and after wandering she always returned. Well, that used to be how it was, until they came after her.
Sen shakes her head; it wouldn't do to dwell on it. If all went well, she could return home again, and even if her house was gone, she could always remake it.
Hmm... how many worlds has she visited? Sen chuckles softly; she had long lost count, as she had also lost count of the number of years she has seen. Her thoughts wander, thinking to the world who's plight is most similar this one. There are similarities, but it certainly wasn't the same. That world hasn't reached the end of its plight, Sen realizes, so, that would mean the crystal is still shattered.
At first it was thought that the crystal split into four, but the exact number is unknown. Sen thinks, No one witnessed the event, not even the Keeper, who had another duty that day. But the crystal, cracked and threatening to split, and the four weapons in the chamber, were gone. Because the physical crystal seemed to be cracking into four distinct parts, it is thought that only four are there, but who can say how many there are? It might be a different world, but I'm worried... if the parts ever became whole, what would happen to the parts?
Sen gives a soft sigh, continuing her train of thought, The one fragment I met... she was worried as well. It seemed as though they all took on a material body and soul, but being fragments they were all incomplete, yet they were all different. She told me that difference was enough to cause two of the fragments to go their separate ways from the others, because they seemingly could not work together. Yet, even if they came together to become whole, what would they become? Neither of us knew the answer to that question, and we still don't.
That is the Twilight Crystal's plight, shattered into Bellianae and the three others: Renata, Darkside, and Saracha... I wonder, what is it that Erishehc is part of? It might not be related, and yet, Erihsehc said he and seven others were part of a power, so what will happen to them if they do work together? I hope it's not the same, where parts may be sacrificed to form the whole... Sen thinks distantly.
Hearing Arturo politely clear his throat behind her, Sen turns, "Yes?" She responds, "Is there something you need or I can help with?"

Topic: Auguries of Destruction: The Linsemptus - Q/A
Subject: With an explanation...
Alright, that's really what the deadline was on actually: either an explanation, notice, or post to the game just to see if you were still there.
Post when you can, and hopefully we'll be able to get going... I'm also waiting on Kaelyn, so I'll try not to put up an actual deadline for game posts unless there's only one person missing. I think that's acceptable...
As I said, this deadline was primarily confirmation that you are there.

Topic: Auguries of Destruction: The Linsemptus - Q/A
Subject: Hmm
Well, there's something that I can do quite easily regarding their absence... I just never thought I'd have to do so in a forum game.
And yes, I don't see anything wrong with what you put Vilyamar... but I'd appreciate if you reacted to Akihiko, Mitsuru or the person coming up from behind the group (assuming they're facing Akihiko and Mitsuru); you don't need to, of course, since you did post, but maybe that'll spur Wrymsting and Hammer? Hmm...
I'll PM them and give them a deadline to respond (to the PM at least if they get writer's block or something)
The deadline is October 5th for them to respond.
NOTE: Responses received to the PM.
I also realize I have not responded to one question, and the answer is no, there is no 'Staff of Passage' in the armoury; a staff of that sort is not a weapon or armour in the conventional sense, and therefore isn't there.

Topic: You Filthy Little Thief!!!
Subject: Question for a question
"Well, it'd be better if I just stayed with the group, right? That way you don't have to wait for me to come back from the orphanage before going out." Ocyari points out, More like if they let me come back... she adds in thought.
After a little pause, in which Ocyari averts her gaze, she pips up again.
"Umm, can I ask something?" Ocyari asks, her voice hesitant and tentative.
"Are you all saying we should rest because you're tired, or..." Ocyari bites her lip; it probably would sound a bit rude, but well, it was on her mind, and she doubted she would get much sleep if it stayed on her mind.
Finally, she blurts out, "Or are you just saying that to make me feel better about being a hindrance to the group?"
Ocyari bites her lip; what was the point in asking that? They'd never admit it even if it was true. That's just the way grown-ups are... too overprotective of her and her other younger 'siblings'. Well, alright, perhaps some of the others are right to be overprotective of, but surely not her. Ocyari knew even she was protective of some of the other 'siblings'...
"Oh forget it." Ocyari blurts out, her eyes firmly staring at her feet, "Let's just find somewhere to sleep."

Topic: Inconceivable Crusaders Q&A
Subject: Jevaf's intentions...
For OOC purposes, consider her intentions to be to leave to wherever the meeting place is, waiting for the others to either succeed or fail (she considers the latter more probable with the current circumstances, and is hence why she left in the first place).
Also going through her mind right now is another plan of sorts. She judges the plan to be just below 50/50 odds for success, and hopefully the picture might be able to be attained that way...
I won't elaborate here, because that would be kind of metagaming I think

Topic: You Filthy Little Thief!!!
Subject: No, I'm not sleepy, honest!
Ocyari's eyes cloud over as she stares slightly. This was no good! She had to stay awake! Had to...
Ocyari crosses her arms, stifling yet another yawn as she pips up, "Well then, are we going or not? It's boring just standing here you know..."
Although the motion of crossing her arms makes her seem impatient, it is really just a cover for what she is really doing. Her hands subtly and barely move, and Ocyari bites her lip as she feels the two hard pinches she gives herself.
Stupid curfews. Ocyari bitterly thinks, I'd bet if I didn't have one I wouldn't be so sleepy.

Topic: Welcome or Not!
Subject: Reminiscence
Sen smiles warmly, "You should already know that I will go with you." she says, retrieving the gemstone.
A power divided into eight... that reminds me of that world... Sen shakes her head, as her eyes become slightly cloudy; it wouldn't do to remember that world. Of all the worlds she's been to, that one was... sad.
I wonder, what will happen to these eight... I hope it's not the same as the four from that world. Sen thinks, despite her attempts at not thinking about it. But, I won't ask; if it is similar, then it'll be difficult enough for him without bringing it up.
"I..." Sen murmurs, "I do have questions, but I know they will be answered in time, when they are ready to be answered."
"Exchanges shouldn't just go one way; if you have questions of me as well, don't hesitate to ask, for I will answer as I can." Sen adds.

Topic: Forgotten Realms: The Unsung Heroes
Subject: No time like the present...
"I agree." Linnix nods toward Aelistae, "There's really no alternative, at least that I can think of."
However, as Linnix looks onward toward the keep, something seems to be amiss about it. Were they so cocky that they didn't feel like setting sentries? No, that just didn't seem right, but, whatever it may be, it wouldn't change the group's course of action. Yet... what if...
Linnix shakes her head firmly. No, don't start with the 'what if's; that will take more time than is available.
"Does anyone else have any ideas?" Linnix asks tentatively, startled by how loud her voice seems in the relative quiet.

Topic: The Trilogy War
Subject: Fieryness
"We have to break through and get to the clearing I made; at least there we don't have to worry as much about the plants." Haila calls, before immediately reaching into her small pouch and pulling out a small, golden tube.
Transferring this to her left hand, she reaches in the pouch once more and pulls out a little bead, which seems to be almost like amber, but with a hint of cloudiness within it, which seem to be particles of dust or perhaps something else. Flicking the bead into the air, Haila snaps her fingers in a fluid motion underneath it, and it bursts into a small flame just beyond her fingertip as she utters the first arcane syllable.
She holds the tube in between the thumb and index finger of her left hand, as though she is ready to paint a masterpiece with it. All it needs is the right ink...
With a swift exchange, she sets the flame upon the end of the tube, now looking for all the world like a paintbrush's end made of fire. Her hand a blur, she sketches a small (about the size of an open palm) symbol in the air, made of fire, and encloses it within a circle, all the while keeping up with the arcane chant. Once the circle is drawn, it sparks into a small orb of fire, which she quickly brings her right palm behind, before bringing it forth and imparting the orb with momentum. Immediately, the orb multiplies into five, all of which streak forward to impact the plant wall before the party.
((Provided there's enough damage that it sizzles and burns))
"Normally at this point I'd be saying 'BBQ', but I'm not vegetarian." Niamedris's thinks aloud.
"I don't think you'd want to eat these plants anyway; I'm sure they have a bad taste." Haila returns.
