Bone Legion (mini RPG)

[Mithrandir]

Alchemare - Western Region - 3rd age - after sunset


http://website.lineone.net/~sjholcombe/cosmeston.bmp

"Eeewl, this milk tastes funny" Murin cried out.
His father, not in the mood for jokes - his milk was the best of the best from the whole western region- , took his cup and tasted.

Immediately he spit out the sour milk and cried out:
"Lorna!, Lorna! Gather the villagers! We've got a problem!"

http://www.gledhillnursery.com/images/Nursery%20Tour/Wishing%20well.jpg

All villagers assembled around the well on the outskirts of town and Feryn (Murins father) cleared his throat. "Friends... once again...we've got a problem..."

Some of the 6 other villagers immediately had a terrified look on their face. The last time Feryn made an announcement like this the other 30 villagers were killed by an alchemist gone insane. The 7 men were all that remained from a once prospering village of alchemists and druids.

"The signs for another mental melt down are here, last week my rooster layed an egg, the day before yesterday the furniture from my livingroom and my bedroom were switched and today, this mornings milk has gone sour."

"I don't like these signs, but we're all friends" Drelko replied. "what do you expect us to do? We should trust eachother and just see what happens"

"Just like last time Drelko?" The dark voice was that of Muilnar, the druid. "Last time almost the whole village was killed, remember?!"

Some more discussion followed but none of the villagers wanted to chance a lynching in fright of killing a friend. The villagers all went to their homes

The Roles:

Murin:
Feryn:
Drelko:
Muilnar:
Lorna:
Furax:
Swuck:


Each character will have some ingrediënts. Others can be aqcuired through gathering in the fields, stealing from the shop or through trading with other players.

The initial ingrediënts will be publicly known.

Gather increases the chance of being hit. Stealing increases the chance of being caught by the shopkeeper thus revealing some of your intentions, trading requires trust between players.

One of the characters is infected by a mental disease which causes him to kill other players.

Tomorrow more information about characters, potions & the required ingrediënts for them will be released. Potions may revive dead members, give an extra life, minion others into your service, or kill multiple targets at a time. More options may be added.

7/7. Signing up closed.

When everyone woke up in the morning, they all seemed different, like they had forgotten half their lives, as if a cloud had come over their memories and over their characters.

They could only remember much about themselves, which school of magic they had mastered for example. They couldn't remember anything about their fellow villagers though, all they knew was that someone else mastered the same school of magic and that they'd probably be best of together.





Roles :
2 Druids
2 Necromancer
2 Alchemists
1 shopkeeper

Alchemists must kill Druids to obtain their inventory and a bonus potion
Duids must kill Necromancers to obtain their inventory and a bonus potion
Necromancers must kill alchemists to obtain their inventory and a bonus potion

Victory is obtained when all other classes are dead.

The shopkeeper must survive on his own, however he has more items, an extra life point and more chance to reveal what someone was trying to steal from his shop. If he catches someone stealing, he'll deal one point of damage.

If the shopkeeper is killed, his shop will be closed. Each day, new ingrediënts will arive at the shop.

Each day, a player can either gather for ingrediënts, steal from the shop, make an attack on a player or use a potion.
If all the ingrediënts for a potion are gathered, the player can brew the potion in the same turn.

Book of lore: chapter ingrediënts:
https://img413.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ingredientszw5.gif
common: +15% chance of finding it
rare: -10% chance of finding it
very rare: - 20% chance of finding it


Each player has 6 life points. Each player has 200% which is divided over 6 categories:
-attacking
-defending
-gathering
-stealing
-magic
-stealth

-attack/defence stats are opposites, only in use for normal attacks
-gathering determines the rate of succes for finding ingrediënts
-stealing determines the rate of succes for stealing. Stealing from the shop is easier than stealing from other players and you know what you're gonna get, but comes at the risk of being attacked and exposed by the shopkeeper
-magic determines the rate of succes for using potions and defending against potions
-stealth determines how big the chance is others will see you gathering in a certain place, or if you're recognised during an attack


If players team up with another mage from their class (druid-druid f.e.) their combined attack will be multiplied by 1.5
So if 2 druids attack (normal attack) 1 player, they'll dea 3 points of damage. the effects of potions will also be multiplied by 1.5 if possible.

Random.org will decide first strike when opposing potions/attacks are used.



(I realise this may be a hard game and may need much more thinking though from my part, but that could take another week or 2, so if you see any loopholes, please say so now. If during the game there's a glitch, I will decide what happen. Please do not complain about fairness - magic isn't fair).

[pevergreen]

:bow: in.

I shall be Muilnar

[Sarathos]

In for Furax.

[Caius]

In for Drelko.

[FactionHeir]

Murin

Now to see who gets Lorna :grin:

[seireikhaan]

This is interesting... I'll be Feryn.

[El Diablo]

Not 100% how these work but will give it a go (if that is okay with Mithrandir).

If so I would like to be Swuck as it is one of the best names I have heard of in a while.

ED

[Andres]

I'll be Lorna :kiss2:

[Mithrandir]

Initial post updated.(bit more to come)

If you see obvious loopholes or have questions, please post.

[Andres]

One of the characters is infected by a mental disease which causes him to kill other players

I assume that is our mafioso. Will he/she know about his/her condition?

Do we all get a role pm?

[pevergreen]

Very interesting, I cant find any loopholes.

[Mithrandir]

I assume that is our mafioso. Will he/she know about his/her condition?

Do we all get a role pm?

I actually changed it from one infectee to all 7 infectees.

Each player has just one ally, 2 nemesis and 3 enemies.

The recepes for the potions are coming up next.


To all players: This may be an time-consuming game, please, if you think you will not be very active, withdraw and let someone else join...

Edit: each player get's a role pm. Each class get's an added bonus, still to be determined. No player will initially know their ally or nemesis.

[Mithrandir]

https://img413.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ingredientszw5.gif

Why doesn't the picture work?

[FactionHeir]

Alchemists must kill Druids to obtain their inventory and a bonus potion
Duids must kill Necromancers to obtain their inventory and a bonus potion
Necromancers must kill alchemists to obtain their inventory and a bonus potion

So uh say Druids get nothing for killing Alchemists?



If players team up with another mage from their class (druid-druid f.e.) their combined attack will be multiplied by 1.5
So if 2 druids attack (normal attack) 1 player, they'll dea 3 points of damage. the effects of potions will also be multiplied by 1.5 if possible.

I gather that the shopkeeper is innocent but one of the other roles is mental. So the teammate becomes the accomplice huh?

I don't exactly understand the minion potion either.

[FactionHeir]

Hmmm So you got ingredients and potions but no recipes?

[pevergreen]

It works, FH its coming.

[Mithrandir]

Druids do not get an extra bonus for killing alchemists, but alchemists do have to die for the druids to win.

There is no more mental role, everyone is mental ~;).

Shopkeeper isn't innocent, but he is his own team, he has to kill all the other villagers. However, he does get some ingredients each day.

teammates can exchange ingrediënts to form potions together.

[Mithrandir]

Minion potion:
If you've killed an enemy, you can use a potion the next turn and the player will return as a minion with 2 lifepoints. You can then tell your minion to either gather, steal or attack for you. The minion dies when the 2 life points are gone or when his master is dead.

[FactionHeir]

Oh, so minion as in zombie I understand!
And recipes are forthcoming still as your minion pever said? :grin2:

[pevergreen]

I serve no one but those that I choose!

So uh what's a gascloud for?
Oh and I can't see the first 2 pictures in your post, only the last 2.

[Mithrandir]

So uh what's a gascloud for?
Oh and I can't see the first 2 pictures in your post, only the last 2.

I added that after the book of lore was done.

More potions may be added during gameplay. May, may not be.


Gascloud: Deal 1 point of damage to 3 different players.

[Mithrandir]

3 more potions will be added to increase:

- strength
- defence
- magic


permanently.

suggestions for names and recipes are welcome. (extra ingredients can be added as well).

[FactionHeir]

Errr

Bull's strength
Armorskin
Empower

:clown:

[Mithrandir]

Thank you, will add them soon.

Everyone has received their role and stats.

You can now all choose to either gather for a certain ingrediënt to start building a potion.

F.e. PM me and say: I'm going to search for a picafeather in the forest.

Your gathering stats will determine how succesful you are. If you did not find the ingredient you were looking for there's a slight chance of finding another resource from that area (you gather stat divided by 5). So say you've got a gathering stat of 60%, you'll have a 60% chance of finding a picafeather. IF you fail, you'll have 12% chance to find something else from the forest. (random.org).

Your stealth factor will determine wether or not you're seen by other players. F.e.

"Muilnar was spotted coming from the graveyard carying a bottle of edderflen"


Attack another player physicly, steal from the shop(keeper) who currently holds these items: (at the risk of being attacked and/or exposed depending on your stealth level)

pure water 1x, phoenix claw 1x, horquim 1x, yaksol 1x, wheat 1x, morgenas 1x

or try to steal something from another player (you'll won't know what you'll get though)

Or request a trade with someone through PM or through this thread.

trades made must be CC-ed to me this so I can keep track of who is able to create what potion. Once you've got the necessary ingredients you can create the potion. The turn after that you can use it.

Potions can be stolen by other players just like anything else in your inventory!

[Mithrandir]

last note:

It's in your best intrest to find your ally asap so you can start sharing ingredients, team up for attacks and so you don't weaken a teammate...

However, your nemesis is also out there hunting for you...

[Mithrandir]

Andres, perhaps you can chance the thread title to mini -RPG ?

[Andres]

Andres, perhaps you can chance the thread title to mini -RPG ?

Okidoki.

Btw, will we vote to lynch somebody during the day?

[Mithrandir]

No, all kills must be performed through attacks or through potions.

Chance of succesfull attack = attack rating attacker - defense rating/2 defender. Each attack deals 1 point damage unless modified by magic or tag-team.

So say you'd have an attack rating of 70% and you'd attack someone with a defense rating of 30%, you'd have 55% chance of a succesful hit.


attack PM's as follows:

I'd like to Attack Muilnar.

Based on your stealth rating it will be determined wether or not the defender recognised you.

After I get all PM's, I'll make a write up about it.

F.e. If you attacked Muilnar and succeeded but he recognised you the write up could be:

"Muilnar was walking towards the well to get some water, suddenly he was stabbed from behind, he screamed in agony while his attacker ran away... e could just see her clothes. It was Lorna"

(remember the chameleon potion though).

[Mithrandir]

Another add-on:

Druids get 10% attack bonus for attacking in the forest, and a 10% defence bonus when attacked in the forest.

Necromancers the same bonusses but on the graveyard.

Alchemist the same bonusses in the fields.

So an attack PM: I attack Muilnar in the Forest supposing you're a druid - or if you're pretending to be one.

If no place is chosen for the attack, it will take place either in town, or at a random place.

[FactionHeir]

Question:

-Any vote phase or how is day/night handled?
-How common are various ingredients?
-What areas are there? (you mentioned town, graveyard, field, forest)
-Are ingredient chances modified by where you search? Say you search for a tortoise shell in the graveyard :clown:

And can you please fix the first two picture links in the 4 picture post?

[Mithrandir]

-one action every 24 hours, no voting but either attacking/gathering/stealing (either from shopkeeper or from other players)/using potion
-Wether an ingrdient is common, rare or very rare can be found in the book of lore.
-area's : town (neutral ground),forest, graveyard,fields like mentioned before.
-No modification but certain ingredients can only be found on certain places. If discovered in the write up people will know where you went gathering ,thus revealing a tiny bit of information on what you're looking for.

I can't fix the pictures, I don't know why they don't work. But all pictures are available in either the 1st post or the other one with the 3 pictures in it.


First day started, please send me your actions

Every player has an ally, except the shopkeeper. To find out who your ally is (and who your nemesis) you could release small bits of info.

[El Diablo]

Ignore... read above post. All is clear now....

ED

[Mithrandir]

Restart round

Ok, here are your options for your action:

each "night" you can do just 1 thing. Gather, steal, attack or use a potion.

You have to state where and for what you will be gathering.

Same thing with stealing: state from who you are going to steal and if it's from the shop, what you are going to steal.

When attacking state who you are going to attack and where.

When you use a potion (you first have to have all the ingredients obviously) state on who you are going to use it.

One final addition to the game, when you go gathering and stumble accros another player also gathering (so if 2 players are gathering in the fields in 1 turn f.e.) you can state what you will do : attack them (basic attack procedure) or hide from them (based on your stealth stat). If both players attack at the same time and are both succesful, both will lose a life point. If one player attacks and the other hides, the first thing calculated is wether or not the hiding was succesful, is succes: there'll be no attack. Only after an alliance is formed (through PM submitted to me), you'll wont attack your ally if you've opted to attack another player also gathering.


So correct format PM (not actual quote):


Feryn round 1

I will gather for Yaksol in the fields and if I come accros another player I will hide from them.


wrong format:

I will gather for something* needed for the phoenix potion either on the field or in the forest* and if I see someone I will use a fireball to instantly kill him* if that fails, I will unleash some camels on him*

* means - uh uh


Apologies for not being clear.

Please send in your PM's (again).


I know this sounds like a 1000 rules for just a tiny game but it's really not that hard, most are just mechanics posted.

It will seem easier after the first round I think.

So please post what you will do, where you'll do it and to whom, if necessary.

People who haven't PM-ed within the next 24 hours are still in their house.

[Mithrandir]

Updated the 1st post to display the entire book of lore (potions, ingredients, recipes).

[Mithrandir]

5/7 actions are in.

[seireikhaan]

My apologies, but I'm simply not going to be able to do this. Consider my spot open, if anyone wants to take it.

[Caius]

My apologies, but I'm simply not going to be able to do this. Consider my spot open, if anyone wants to take it.
El Diablo stated that he wanted to play, I think.

Sorry for teh delay.

[El Diablo]

Sorry Caius, I am already in (and was hoping to fly below radar far a few turns) - shaking fist - "curse you Caius" - ha ha.

But for your information Mithrandir I have already discovered the murderer...


It was Professor Peacock, in the Conservatory, with the Candlestick.

Hope this didn't ruin it for the rest of you...

[Sarathos]

It was Professor Peacock, in the Conservatory, with the Candlestick.
Oh, I thought it was the lead pipe...:sad:

[Mithrandir]

Ok, just looking for one more player, but 1st round is closed.(new player may be compensated for not being able to gather the 1st round).

[Mithrandir]

As dawn broke, the 7 remaining villagers rose to find a new world. New to them at least, they were all feeling somewhat paranoid.
What if another slaughtering would begin? That'd be horrible, so many loved ones lost. Each of the villagers, save 2, had lost their families.

In that dreadful time an alchemist had mixed a wrong ingredient into a potion, turning him completely mad, but also etremely powerful....a bad combination.

At least that's the official story, rumours had it that 2 necromancers actually planned it to form a legion of undead minions. Either way, the villagers
were in complete distrust of eachother. All they knew was that they'd probably be best of if they'd find another mage of their school.

While all the other villagers rose early to prepare for the worst, Feryn obviously had little worries. He looked out the window and saw the pouring rain,
he decided it'd be best to get some more sleep, so he slept for the whole day.

Muilnar however rose early and went to the graveyard. He claimed to be visiting his fathers grave, killed during the Dark Days.He was spotted gathering
edderflen from the maggots feeding on the corpses of some young woman instead.

http://www.maddiedigital.co.uk/USERIMAGES/graveyard.jpg

Murin didn't quite trust Muilnar and went to check it out. When he arrived at the graveyard Muilnar was already gone however.
As he turned around to go home he was punched in the face, as he fell to the ground he received another 2 blows to his stomach and chest. (-1 l.p.),
As he looked up he was stunned to see a nice slender figure walking away. Lorna had a grin on her face, finally some revenge for that ugly valentines
card he send her.

Murin, still shocked by the attack decided to go for a stroll on the fields and look for some wheat, which he found.


When he returned into town he saw Drelko coming from the woods carrying some Morgenas. Drelko had a relieved look on hi face,
maybe because he had found what he was looking for, or maybe something else...

Furax and Swuck were not seen the whole day.


http://www.fws.gov/Endangered/graphics/Bald-Eagle.gif
At the end of the day everything seemed to have returned to normal, the eagle came from east delivering his package to the shopkeeper, it contained awolf tooth.


=============

Day 1 complete

You'll all receive a PM about your actions, wether or not you gathering/attack was succesful (if not mentioned in the story above), your new stats and inventory.

[Mithrandir]

Please send in your new actions.

Gathered ingredients are colored in green, lost life points are colored in red.

[pevergreen]

waiting on pm :laugh4:

Lorna seems like an angry girl.

She must be a necromancer. Who was looking to attack me as well. I wasnt in my home turf...

[Mithrandir]

waiting on pm :laugh4:

What's that Muilnar?

....

(not Murin)

[Myrddraal]

I'll join if you need a sub. But I probably can't take the time to read/understand the rules till this evening. Is that ok?

[pevergreen]

Ah, Murin was after me. That dirty...necromancer?

[Mithrandir]

That's no problem at all.

Welcome Feryn !

Basicly it's as follows:

each player belongs to one of 4 classes,
2 necromancers
2 druids
2 alchemists
1 shopkeeper

Objective of the game is to kill all the other players, except your fellow druid/necro etc. If you kill another player, you'll get his inventory. If you kill a nemesis you get his inventory + some bonusses. Nemesis are stated in the first post.

Each class has an advantage on a certain ground:
Necro's get 10% extra attack & defence on the graveyard etc (see 1st post)

Your inventory consists of ingredients you can use to create potions. See the book of lore in the first post for the various potions (3 more will be added today). These can either give you a bonus, or do damage to other players.

Each player has 6 life points, except the shopkeeper who has 7.
Each player has 200% stats,except the shopkeeper who has 220%, divided over attack, defence, gathering,stealing, stealth and magic.

Each turn you can either attack, gather, steal, or use a potion.
The stealth stat will determine how much chance you have of being seen during the gathering/attacking/stealing/using a potion.

The other stats determine the rate of succes of exactly what it says.
(defense divided by 2).

You can either steal from another player, or from the shopkeeper (one of the 7 players). Advantage from stealing from the shopkeeper: you know what you're going to steal, disadvantage: if discovered, the shopkeeper will automaticly deal 1 point damage.

every day you have to PM me your action, formatted as follows:

I will gather (or attack/steal/use potion) for wheat (or another ingredient, or insert "from" and a user name here if you're going to attack or steal) in the fields (or forest/graveyard/town-depending on the ingredient or where you want to steal/attack -town is neutral ground) and hide if I come across another player. (if 2 players are gathering in the forest f.e.)



If you have any questions, please post here in this thread and I'll be your faithful servant :bow:

[Mithrandir]

Currently in the shopkeepers stock:

pure water 1x, phoenix claw 1x, horquim 1x, yaksol 1x, wheat 1x, morgenas 1x, wolf tooth 1x

[FactionHeir]

This means Lorna = Necromancer because she attacked me in the graveyard (I didn't ask to be there but it seems that if their PM says they atttack you somewhere, you will be there...)

[Mithrandir]

it seems that if their PM says they atttack you somewhere, you will be there...)

:yes:

[Sarathos]

Just because she was in the graveyard doesn't mean she is a necromancer. I am pretty sure the rules say that if you attack someone, unless otherwise stated, you will fight in the town or where the victim is. So why were you in the graveyard FactionHeir....?

[pevergreen]

No, reading the rules and the post above you points out that you pick where to attack. Necromancers get bonus in the graveyard, therefore it stands to reason that the attacker is a necromancer.

[Sarathos]

Not really, because Lorna doesn't have to be a Necromancer to attack someone in the graveyard. Anyone can attack anywhere, you just get bonuses for being on home ground. For Lorna to attack she doesn't need a bonus, what if her physical stats are already high. And FactionHeir would need to be a Necromancer himself to get a defence bonus. So Lorna could be a Necromancer, then again she might not be.

[FactionHeir]

OK so Sarathos and Andres are both Necromancers

[Mithrandir]

2/7 actions are in.

[Andres]

I was hoping my ally would have understand the clue I tried to give away...

*sigh*

[Mithrandir]

3/7 actions for day 2 are in, please send them asap :yes:

[El Diablo]

I would have thought that the person who attacked was the solo person as they can attack who they want given they have no allies?

Right then I will change my answer to:

"It was the Necromancer in the Graveyeard with the Phoenix claw"

Any closer Mithrandir?

Bone Legion Cluedo - Highly Recommended.

[Mithrandir]

"It was the Necromancer in the Graveyeard with the Phoenix claw"

-=======================Day 2============================


Feryn decided that today he'd get some action. He returned to his daily ritual of watering the plants in his beautiful garden and had a cup of tea afterwards.
When he finised the last sip he decided to take a quick nap.His nap lasted the whole day... Drelko was also deadly tired and stayed in bed the whole day.If any of the other women from the town would've survived the Dark Days ,surely there'd been rumours...

Furax had no time to worry about rumours anymore, he was determined to create his potion. He went into the forest to find some of his
final ingrediënts. He looked for hours but couldn't find anything. This was strange, especially for Furax.

http://www.maddiedigital.co.uk/USERIMAGES/graveyard.jpg

Muilnar was seen mourning on the graveyard again, maybe he really couldn't get over his loss...
He put some fresh flowers on the grave, lit a candle and killed any bugs on the grave, strangely disecting them as he continued.
After he was done he looked even more sad than before.

Muilnar would've started weeping if it wasn't for some strange sounds. As he hid behind a bush he saw Lorna sneeking up on Murin.
Again Murin was too late to see the attacker coming and received a fistfull of female fury. As Lorna ran away she cried out "Please! Love me! Write me a letter!".
Murin was confused, did she mean that he should write a letter or someone else nearby? Surely that valentines card with the heart should've been enough...then again Lorna did drive a hard bargain from time to time.
https://img387.imageshack.us/img387/9650/valentineszg6.gif

Even though his nose still hurt like hell Murin could somehow still produce a small, vengeful, grin.

In Swuck's house there was no sign of activity the whole day, he must've been out the whole day. Late in the evening
some candlelight could be seen and a content humming could be heard from inside Swuck's house.


http://www.eagleconservationalliance.org/images/eagles/verreauxs_eagle.jpg
As the sun started to make room for the stars, the eagle came and delivered aPicafeather to the Shopkeeper.

Ingredients in the shop: pure water 1x, phoenix claw 1x, horquim 1x, yaksol 1x, morgenas 1x, wolf tooth 1x, Picafeather 1x
================


Please send in your actions for Day 3 within the next 24 hours

Remember, by teaming up you'll be able to share ingredients to create potions, plan combined -extra strong- attacks and combine your stats (f.e. if one is a poor gatherer but strong attacker and the other a poor attacker and a great gatherer one could do the gathering while the other does the attacks).

A side from PM-ing me your actions, you can also supply me with possible details you'd like to include to make your character more person f.e.

[Mithrandir]

Only 4/7 actions are in. Please send in action for the 3rd day within the next 8 hours.

Thanks :bow:

[FactionHeir]

Must WoG :grin2:

[Mithrandir]

Drelko had a sleep in the whole day. Life must've seemed too boring for him.

Though Muilnar wasn't seen the whole day, there were signs of activity in his house his silhouette was seen dancing behind the curtains. Maybe he'd found what he was looking for, and his pain for the loss of his loved ones somehow faded somewhat.

Lorna, still somewhat confused with last days events decided to go for a stroll in the fields. She looked around for ingredients but mostly she just tried to organise her daily supply of thoughts. Suddenly she stood face to face with Murin and Feryn, Murin's nose still swolen and his eyes filled with anger, and a bit of fear for Lorna's incredible strength.

Without to many words the 2 men went straight for the lonely woman. Murin managed to take a swing at her with his staff and she went straight to the ground.(- 1 l.p.) Murin turned around and called out to Feryn to come to help and finish the job. Feryn, a little distance from the duo, started running towards them but tripped over a rock. As Murin helped him up, Lorna came to and ran away. She was too fast for the men to catch up.

Feryn had sprained his anle and limped back to his house to get some rest. Murin however gave chase to Lorna into town. Arriving there he found Lorna waiting for him, he took another swing with his staff but this time she dodged it. She quickly put some brass knuckles and delivered a hard punch to Murin's face... "Again my nose you w..." he exclaimed before receiving some more blows (- 1 l.p).

This time it was Murin who fled the scene.Lorna was too tired to chase him but saw him fleeing to the graveyard. Murin, out of breath, leaned on a tombstone and decided he should get some excersise...beaten up by a girl, Puh! As he was about to return to his home and headed for the cemetery gates he saw a tall,dark, hooded figure.

The hooded figure inmediately started to run towards Murin, shouting 'Run Murin, run! Muwhahahaah'.He drew a scimitar and sliced Murin's gut wide open (-1 l.p.). As Murin started drifting away, the dark figure walked away. Then suddenly, he returned and removed his hood and hissed in the ear of Murin: "that should teach you to harass my darling Lorna". After that Swuck walked away, leaving murin in a pool of blood.

Furax, noticing everyone's absence decided to take advantage of the situation and robbed the shopkeeper of some Yaksol. The shopkeeper however had returned just in time and punched Furax in the gut (- 1 l.p) and took out a whip, Furax ran,with this yaksol as fast as his legs could carry him, but it wasn't fast enough to dodge a blow from the whip.

The shopkeeper, quite tired to call it a day and to wait for the eagle to come with the fresh ingredient. The eagle came and delivered Dogriem to the Shopkeeper

[Mithrandir]

[Sarathos]

[Mithrandir]

Drelko finally decided to get out of bed. He walked out the door and took a deep breath..instead of air he inhaled something else, it smelled funny.
Suddenly he got a burning feeling in his eyes, they turned red with blood.
They started swelling and swelling till they were the size of ping-pong balls, then they burst open. An agonazing pain took hold of Drelko, this had hurt like nothing before.-1 l.p.http://people.csail.mit.edu/bsnyder/bloody.jpg

Just when his eyes exploded a swarm om hornets started stinging Drelko in his face.-1 l.p. Luckily there was a pool nearby, Drelko jumped in to escape the stinging pain. http://www.naturephoto-cz.com/photos/krasensky/wasp-0071.jpg

As soon as he set his first foot in, the flesh was eaten of the bones by a pack of hungry piranhá's - 1 l.p. Drelko jumped out of the water but as soon as he landed on his feet he fell, since his leg was weakened-having no flesh or muscles left-.
http://www.petfishtalk.com/rss_feeds/images/060816_piranha.jpg

When he fell he landed in a bush with poisonous thorns, his arms were ripped open and the poison caused his veins to turn black, Drelko's blood flowing through his entire boody felt like it was on fire, he was burning from the inside - 1 l.p.

http://www.wetcircuit.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/thorns.jpg

As he lay there, blind and in more pain than he could ever image he felt a nice cool breeze carassing his face.

It was the breath of a comodo dragon. It took a bite out of Drelko's arms and dragged Drelko for several miles to it's lair. As he was dragged along over rubble and bushes, splinters and chips of wood were driven deep in his body -1 l.p.Drelko screamed like a girl the whole way.

http://media3.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/photo/2007/02/06/PH2007020600566.jpg

Just before the dragon could drag Drelko inside it's lair, he heard voices, speaking in a strange tongue. The people, killed the dragon and saved Drelko. Though Drelko didn't really want to be saved, he was in too much pain and completely blind and criple -so he'd rather die-, his survival instinct made him smile to be saved.


[b]The burning feeling in his eyes and entire body continued to torment Drelko all the way to the strange village where he was carried. The burning sensation turned worse as the villagers made a large fire. Suddenly Drelko's pants were ripped off by them and they put a large sharp stick all the way from behind through his body and toasted the unfortunate Drelko - 1 l.p. [size=4]-Death-[/color].

Drelko went straight to hell for his sins, there he was tormented for all eternity. Everyday was a repeat of his last, only worse.

Thus ends Drelko.

His belongings are passed on to his ally.


I wont be playing anymore, Im not really interested.

Sorry camel lover.

Caius

Like I've said in one of the first posts , this game could take a while. If anyone else is not really interested, please resign now.

[Myrddraal]

Owch... I'm really very interested. Please don't hurt me.

[FactionHeir]

Love the pictures :grin:
So T4 is over now? (should be since 2.5 hours)

[Mithrandir]

Yes, write up will follow soon.

:bow:

[Mithrandir]

Alchemare Day 4.
=========================================================
Though the villagers hardly spoke to eachother, too suspicious of eachother, or maybe only interested in their own lives, a short conversation amongst certain villagers took place. Discussing the bloody trail from Drelko's house leading into the mountains in the south and the reasont arguments and even attacks.

Feryn and Furax didn't participate though, they were not in town the whole day. Muilnar too was absent for most of the day, though he was spotted later returning from the graveyard carrying some Rebirthleaf.

Murin, not feeling like being attacked again hid in the fields. After a few hours he though to himself "I must be crazy, hiding like a scared kid".
As he walked towards town he saw a tall figure standing in the distant.
Murin, somehow feeling stronger than in the previous attacks was confident of his capabilities and didn't wait for the other to make the first move. Murin grabbed his staff and hit the hooded figure straight in the stomach. The person went straight to the ground, Murin gave another blow, this time to the back - 1l.p.. Murin, turned his back on the person and decided it was enough violence for one day.

The hooded figure however drew a curved blade and stabbed it in the thigh of Murin -1 l.p.. As Murin limped away, he heard an evil laughter.

Lorna saw Murin returning wounded to town and took her chance, she put on her brass knuckles and started punching Murin again.- 1 l.p.. As Murin lay on the ground, bleeding, Lorna walked away, leaving a note:



"Please, oh please, send me a love letter! He who declares his love to me through an elaborate letter, will receive my gratitude. I need love, love, love!"


Please send in your actions for round 5.

[Andres]

Can we have a list of players still alive (and if possible with how many hitpoints they still have)?

:bow:

[Mithrandir]

Only Drelko is dead.

I can't comment on the lifepoints of the players since they may have used potions to regain lifepoints.

Every player started with 6, except the shopkeeper who had 7 (since he/she has no ally). From the write ups you can get an indication about the remaining points.

It was worth a try ~;p

[FactionHeir]

What's with all this needing love? He who sends you a letter gets punched? :tongue2:

[Andres]

Well, you don't necessarily have to limit your alliance to your "natural" ally do you?

Temporary alliances can be the key to success.

[FactionHeir]

Not that it helps if Swuck hits me again ~:(

[Andres]

Not that it helps if Swuck hits me again ~:(

You ally doesn't want to help you?

[Mithrandir]

The eagle came by, later than usual, carrying a heavier load than usual.
It dropped a package at the shopkeeper's containing a bottle of Pure Water and a bottle of Edderflen.

The shopkeeper now has in store:

pure water 2x, phoenix claw 1x, horquim 1x, morgenas 1x, wolf tooth 1x, Picafeather 1x, Dogriem 1x, edderflen 1x

[Mithrandir]

A lot can be read from the write ups concerning people's allegiance.

1 post has hints towards almost every player.

PM's going out now.
:bow:

[El Diablo]

I only attacked you because you upset my beloved Lorna.

Swuck aint the sharpest knife in the drawer (or your back) but in the words of Forrest Gump "he knows what love is".

[FactionHeir]

I upset Lorna by gathering Ingredients on T1? :no:
I'm pretty much dead anyway, so it doesn't matter.

[Mithrandir]

Perhaps your ally, if still alive will brew you a phoenix potion, or at the least a minion potion...

[Sarathos]

Well Muilnar got a Rebirthleaf so that means he is either FactionHeir's ally and is trying to bring him back or Muilnar is going for the Minion potion...He also has the possiblity of being a Necro.

[pevergreen]

Or maybe im collecting random ingrediants to throw you off?

[Mithrandir]

Calculating day 5 results.

[Mithrandir]

Will post results in an hour, ran out of time :bow:

(Feryn-if still in time, I'll include your actions).

[Mithrandir]

Swuck staked out Lorna's house like'd done many times before, hoping to catch a glimpse of her beauty...well, beauty in his eyes, Swuck always had a thing for masculant women. He hid behind a bush the whole day and watched for any movement.

Lorna having keen eyesight already spotted him some hours ago. She took the backdoor, took a spade from the garden and silently moved behind the focussed Swuck. http://www.thecedartree.co.uk/ornamenta/images/Cutting_tools_DSC00082_th.jpg
With all her power she bashed his head - 1 l.p.. The next time she caught someone spying on her, she wouldn't be so nice she decided, and go for the scythe instead. By the time Swuck woke up with a killing headache, he found himself dragged into the fields. He was tied up and a letter was left behind. When he freed himself he read it:



Stay away from my husband!


Swuck filled with anger about this betrail from his loved one decided to attack the first living thing he encountered. A turtle was unlucky enough to be passing by. Swuck took the turtle and started ripping it's flesh of it's bones with his teeth.
http://www.dkimages.com/discover/previews/1014/70015089.JPG
After there was little left but a shell and some bones ,Swuck still felt anger.

Feryn, quite the animal lover, happened to see the disgusting scene and marched up to Swuck. "What the hell do you think you're doing?! Leave that beautiful creature alone!" Swuck grinnned, drew his scimitar and drove it straight through Feryn's chest, just missing his vital organs - 1 l.p.. Swuck felt relieved and went home.

Once home he discovered his next set back for the day, someone had stolen his portion of wheat from his secret hide out. No traces to whom it could've been could be found however.

Feryn, coming to from the sudden attack tended to his wound the best he could and decided it'd be a pity to leave the turtle shell behind. The creature was already dead and he could probably use it later on.

Muilnar and Murin both went to the cemetery and both found what they were looking for.
http://www.maddiedigital.co.uk/USERIMAGES/graveyard.jpg
Murin returned carrying a very rare Phoenix Claw and Muilnar found some Rebirthleaf. Neither of them was in the mood for a fight so they parted in peace.

The shopkeeper received Dogriem 1x.

===========

Please send in your actions for day 6.
