Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
The Yellow Road
In the Yellow Road, without experience, this could take years. Outside of it, all of a few minutes would pass.
If Moff is willing to spend that long searching for just the right place, he will find AMEN again.
Perhaps worse for wear, what with wandering the multiverse for years.
But don't worry about aging. Nobody ages in the Road.My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
((Hmmm... is The Moff insane enough to try that? Probably. XD
The real question is, can The Moff get lucky on The Road? ))
After a few hours of wandering, The Moff realizes the improbability of his task. Resolving to return and explore more thouroughly, The Moff attempts to remember the name... Jack... Empty dude... Yochanan?Last edited by Moff Chumley; 2010-07-29 at 03:01 PM.

((The Objects, in a way, had a hand in making the Road. It is in their purpose to make and manipulate worlds.
So he might be able to get lucky and pick the right path to AMEN. It would still take a while to travel there, though.))
"Hello." Comes the call from behind Moff.
If he turns, he'll find the grey man, disguised as a Celestial Embassy soldier. "You need something, Moff?"Last edited by Murkus; 2010-07-29 at 03:13 PM.

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
[Marley Rescue Attempt]
At the AMEN submarine, far from the rest of the fighting I think, a portal opens from Nadas's cabin at GLoG at the same time that the lone guard suddenly acquires a blindfold and manacles.
At least if Charity's magic works, that's what happens.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
[Rescue Attempt]
Assuming Charity's magic works , Edijar will step through the portal first, taking a quick look around before gripping his rather heavy hammer. If the glass tube is where he expects it to be, he'll throw it with his more than considerable strength at the prison holding Marley. He aims low so he won't hit him and so the glass is less inclined to hurt the captive if it shatters.

Shrike nods, and tenses as she reaches for the key!
Ready for anything. Primarily to spring away the moment she has it.

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
Yellow Road
Jack looks somewhat surprised. "You've certainly taken to my little slice of heaven quickly, haven't you Moff? Oh, the wonders I could show you..." Jack grins. "But you're right, that's for another time. Hm. Well, that silly spell's probably worn off by now."
Space twists around the pair, and suddenly, Moff might be able to scry on AMEN from where he's standing.
Jack rubs his chin, watching the scene himself from the Road. "Would you look at that. Seems our resident Elder Evil's keeping them busy."
"Well, I dunno. You can't really go up against that lot alone. I suppose you could do one of two things: Get the flying town ready to go just in case we need to leave quickly, or..."
The hollow man's eyes glint with glee at what's to come. "You could come help me scope out, and possibly attack, the Celestial Deliberative. The source of these damned Exalts. We could draw them away from AMEN that way."My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
Upon mention of D_Lord, The Moff nods and grins. It's a thing of beauty. Once Jack describes the plan, The Moff gets a sharkish look. In. With out a doubt, in. What'll we need? Explosives, of course, lots of explosives. And I need another rifle. Let's go.

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
Yellow Road
"You're kidding, right? Being one of the oldest beings in the multiverse ain't just for boasting. I got whole armories."
Jack drags Moff off through the Road, to one of his private stashes.
When they arrive, Moff will find himself in a small metal compound, amidst a sea of trees lit only by the innumerable stars in the sky.
Jack flicks a switch in the darkness, starting a long-dormant electrical generator. Beyond the rumble of this machine, the forest is completely silent.
Wall after wall of weapons is revealed, from rocket launchers to rifles to more alien tech. It's all gratuitously well organized, as if Jack spent years just collecting these weapons and putting them in proper places.
Jack immediately grabs a backpack and starts collecting guns, equipment, and ammo. "Take your pick, friend."My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
Surveying Jack's weapon collection, The Moff finds himself feeling at home. Let's see... choices, choices... The Moff settles on a HK416 20, which he fits a silencer and scope on. For the sake of nostalgia, he also takes an Uzi. None of that mini bullsh*t. And I think we're gonna need some more unconventional ammo...

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
Jack slings a MATADOR rocket launcher over his shoulder by a strap, and begins loading anti-structure ammunition into his pack.
"Mm. Good choices." He remarks. "But what do you mean? I've got a couple of the odder types of ammo, but you'll have to be more specific."
Deadtime, unfortunately.Last edited by Murkus; 2010-07-29 at 11:14 PM.

Pete falls over as manacles appear on him. As the column shatters from the blow, he calls out.
"Polly! Use the candles!""Arck, Polly use candles."
Polly, Pete's parrot, who was sitting up on a part of the docks above the submarine, grabs what looks like a red candle, lights it and throws it down towards the rescure group. However, its not a candle, its TNT.Avatar by Emperor Ing

Reelshka quickly grabs the nearest handy, throwable object and throws it at the TNT, hoping to knock it back.

Nadas eeps. Dwarven explosive technology!
He casts a spell to douse the TNT with water, translocating it from nearby. Of course, he could accidentally translocate something else by accident, but he'd rather not get blown up.

The TNT is knocked away, and then doused.

Polly's not a nice bird, and throws two more TNT, and then flies to get more. Pete is struggling to get out of the manacles.Avatar by Emperor Ing

Nadas will throw a grease spell at the bird hoping that it will cause any TNT it tries to pick up to simply slip right out of its grasp.Last edited by Reinholdt; 2010-07-30 at 10:35 AM.

Polly dodge what Reelshka throws at her, but the grease spell works.
"Ark, you pay. You pay. Wake up, wake up."
As Charity throws the TNT into the water, Marley is grabbed, through you might want to get the tubes out of him. From the water, a white tentacule rises up.

Nadas goes to assist with the tube pulling. And deadtimes. He has a sleep spell left he can throw at something if Happy or Mort want to godmode him.
No one ever said he was a great mage. He still has a couple hundred years of learning before he'd be anywhere near his mother's capabilities.

The axe cuts the tentacle, making it shake. Three more tentacles rise out of the water, and two of them try to smash Edijar to the ground. Seeing that the invaders aren't paying attention, Polly flies over to Pete, and starts working on getting the manacles off.Avatar by Emperor Ing

Polly will probably find lockpicking difficult while covered with grease.
Nadas casts his sleep spell on the tentacle monster.
HT wants to know how big the tentacles are so she can post what happens to Edijar, and also wants to know how far she and Nadas got with the tube pulling.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Re: [Nexus] AMEN 32: Srs Bzns
Okay, the tentacles are about the size of a thick beam. As for the tube pulling, they got them out, but Marley is bleeding right now where the tubes were.
Also the squid falls asleep, the tentacles stop moving.Last edited by ThePhantom; 2010-07-30 at 11:03 AM.
