[NEXUS] OoC VI: Do You Think You Can Handle It?

[Artemis97]

You... want to attack my bar with nigh indestructable things?

What?

[Terumitsu]

Someone is attacking the taverns?

I... Honestly kinda wanna see this happen. It would give a PC or so of mine something to do. I mean, abide by the rules and all but I kinda wanna see this happen...

Also, Art. Just throw the Tick at them Nigh invulnerable vs. Nigh invulnerable!

[ThirdEmperor]

Not attack. We've decided on just blocking the doors. If you object however, I will leave the Black Dragon's alone. And they aren't indestructible at all.

[Reinholdt]

Where's a good place to introduce Oregon?
Hehe. Don't ask him where Neils is.

Probably in Trog's Tavern or Black Dragon Inn.
Where is Neils anyways?

[UncleWolf]

I have a couple people who'd be able to put up more than a fight for the golems if it comes to it.

[Maxios]

Guys, it's nearly new thread time! I'll make the new thread this time around!

Maxios unleashes his power on non-living things. He doesn't consider a golem a living thing, so they must be ready to face his wrath

[Artemis97]

Yeah, alright. I don't see why you can't, now that the initial shock of reading this has worn off.

Just, don't expect Raril to be happy about it. And there's a bit of truth to the rumor that all tavern owners are ex-adventurers.

[happyturtle]

That will work. I'm still not sure 18 golems are overpowered though, as I expect them to get swarmed by much more powerful PCs, as well as LANTERN.

'Swarmed' implies greater numbers.

There are never 18 people undeadtimed in the same thread at the same time. You might get 5 or 6 at most. More likely 3 or 4. I'll probably leave my characters deadtimed if it's going to be a huge fight.

((Maxios - webcomic discussion is really more for the A&C subforum than here. I will say that nearly everyone I know who is talented enough to do a webcomic would rather do their own than someone else's.))

[ThirdEmperor]

I don't expect it to actually work for long. The basic idea is that Salvation will get more customers if there's nowhere else to go, so Mercury's getting Nite to lay reverse siege to the bars.

[Maxios]

Yeah, alright. I don't see why you can't, now that the initial shock of reading this has worn off.

Just, don't expect Raril to be happy about it. And there's a bit of truth to the rumor that all tavern owners are ex-adventurers.

Genre conventions state they must be ex-adventurer's, so they can share stories of their quests over a cup of ale.

To happyturtle: I tried. No one wants to draw it over there, so I figured I'd take it here, since it's a Nexus comic, and many Nexus people are good artists.

[Gullara]

If the goal is to block off the doors any fighting will take place outside the tavern's doors I imagine.

[happyturtle]

TE, when it comes to power levels, your opinions kind of don't really reassure anyone.

[Earl of Purple]

Also, there's a certain gnome in the city, one who runs a certain shop, that won't be happy with a competitor in the golem-crafting business. This particular gnome is Pontius Montifex Dathrii, owner of Pontius's Custom Constructs. His magic is designed solely around the creation and deployment of various forms of golem, gargoyle, sentient statue and other types of magical automaton.

On an unrelated note: My SAINT character's name is Mortius Necriax Dathrii, who is collecting corpses and has mentioned a 'family discount' at a golem shop.

[McBish]

Also would like to point out, whoever is in charge of the marketing department for this place is just silly.

[Gullara]

TE, when it comes to power levels, your opinions kind of don't really reassure anyone.

Well I would actually be in control of the golems if you trust my judgement.

[ThirdEmperor]

TE, when it comes to power levels, your opinions kind of don't really reassure anyone.

I really wish I could argue with that. But I can't, which is one of the reasons I had Mercury shove this whole tavern wars deal on Nite.

[TechnoScrabble]

Probably in Trog's Tavern or Black Dragon Inn.
Where is Neils anyways?

I dunno, you'll have to ask Oregon, kekeke.

[ApeofLight]

*blink*

*blink*

ughhh...

Ape might just go crawl into a hole and wait for all the overpowered power gaming crap blow over.

And the thing about the Riverside vampires... ehhh... humans usually don't want to be vampires, especially in the Nexus. That means the whole idea of the vampire human community would take several hundred years probably to actually set up. Basic military state though would work.

And seriously guys. Not everything is a my gun is bigger game. Because really in the Nexus a level one rogue could take down half a dozen dragons if done correctly. So could you guys just turn it down a little bit? There's a reason why gods are banned from the Nexus and are only allowed avatars.

And welcome TechnoScrabble. Welcome to pure unbridled insanity.

[Reinholdt]

Umm... what? Since when? I've never seen anything about this.

[Gullara]

Oh ya, I forgot to mention that that would not be included. Of course it might be mentioned as a long term goal.


Also, from the SAINT Thread.

As far as new contracts go, there's capture Mercury (ThirdEmperor) and capture Vincent (Reinholdt). The first is 'supposedly' being worked on by Nite.

Many of the older contracts still stand though, little to no progress seeming to have been made on them.

I resent that. Nite is dedicated to SAINT, but he does like to work the angles a bit. He sees this as an opportunity to get close to Mercury as well as get something out of it.

[Darklord Bright]

I think I might see if at some point I can get myself to brave the "OMG LOTS OF PLACES" brain-screaming and get Trix out into the city. Crawl around on some rooftops or something.

[FireFox]

Umm... what? Since when? I've never seen anything about this.

I believe Ape is referring to Town, about a year ago. We had some real problems with OPed PCs (leading me to actually write an essay on the subject) and, as a result, agreed that Gods could only be played if they were just depowered avatars, no greater than a 7 on the Quinsar PL scale. No such rule is currently active, to my knowledge.

Oooh. An essay? You still have it?

Hehe, you obviously don't live within a 3000 kilometer radius of Dellesburg.
Thanks though!

[ApeofLight]

Oh? Do they have an alcoholic magma elemental in the shape of a monkey too? Because if that is normal where you are then it is at least as crazy as the Nexus.

[celtois]

Hey Reinholdt I have a question for you. One of my characters would IC be interested in joining SAINT, however it is not the sort of thing that he would have knowledge of; how would you suggest I have him discover about SAINT?

Thanks

Well What the pumpkin found it on a bathroom stall. It can also be overheard in conversations at bars and such. Any reasonable way of getting some seedy information would work.

[Maxios]

Whatever happened to What?

You know how there are geographical points on earth where electromagnetic energy and magnetic forces seem to react differently than they should, pushing, pulling, suddenly deciding to exist less or more? Like the Bermuda Triangle, or the Pyramids in Egypt? Well, Dellesburg is one of those places. Stuff pops up around here all the freaking time. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a magma monkey at one point.
We've got wooden tables in the park that float. No magnets or metal or anything in them, just an ash wood table, FLOATING.

[Gullara]

Whatever happened to What?

Whatever happened to who?
