The Dancing Fox Inn XIX

[Beholder1995]

Beholder has nine spare eyestalks.

He points one at both FS and... that other guy. He's still focusing on Mark with his primary eye, however.

Both of you. Leave us.

[ThePhantom]

"Can I have a word with you Baron? And no I won't leave."

[Doran_Liadon]

Mark does fall in to his chair. Just some old priest in the cathedral. What does it matter anyway?

[Raistlin1040]

That other guy looks back at the eyestalk, his eyes changing color quicker than usual. Suddenly they flash, and unless Beholder's eye is protected, his eye staring at the man will go blind.

[Beholder1995]

Mark does fall in to his chair. Just some old priest in the cathedral. What does it matter anyway?

Beholder grins sarcastically.

Which. Priest?

Then, to FS:
One moment, sir.

The eye the guy flashes at blinks.
Seen it before. Leave me.

[Raistlin1040]

The man smiles. Well that's good, makes it fairer. His eyes continue to flash, though it appears it's of their own accord, and they don't cause Blindness. Afterall, I already have so many advantages over you, taking away your sight would almost be cheating.

[Doran_Liadon]

Someone you do not want to get mixed up with. he looks sort of angry now.

[ThePhantom]

"This is when I get out of the way." FS go right through the floor without leaving a hole.

[Beholder1995]

Someone you do not want to get mixed up with. he looks sort of angry now.

Beholder sneers at Mark, ignoring the guy.
There are two priests of reasonable power at the cathedral.

Who was it? Lupy?

Or Tel'anor?

His eyestalk sparks and heats up dangerously.

[Raistlin1040]

The man eyes the Beholder with an amused smile.

[Lupy]

There is a presence too faint to detect watching with interest.

EDIT: Anyone very familiar with elementals might notice it...

[Doran_Liadon]

I'll give you a guess. Beholder might feel Marks forehead getting hotter.

[Beholder1995]

A guess.

For two options.

This should be interesting.

[Raistlin1040]

The man sighs and attempts to flick the eyeball of the eyestalk in front of him.

[Doran_Liadon]

If you guess it right i will tell you, if wrong i will burst into flames and fry this eye of yours.
(( this is the worst time but i gotta deadtime))

[Beholder1995]

(( this is the worst time but i gotta deadtime))

Hmmm.... pehaps- in mid sentance, so as to catch Mark off guard, Beholder fires his eye. It's the speed of light- there's absolutely no way I can think of that anyone could stop it.

Deadtime.

[Lupy]

Deadtime.

How do you live with yourself? Knowing that you would have dodged it?

[FireFox]

Deadtime.

This is godmoding, deciding other's actions for them, and is clearly stated as something you don't do in the rules. You can notmake anyone do anything their players don't want to do. Realistic? No. Fair? Yes.

[Beholder1995]

How do you live with yourself? Knowing that you would have dodged it?

Lupy, if the person attacking me went to the trouble of doing it mid-sentance, you know I'd die. It's just... no one's ever gone to the trouble of seriously trying to kill Beholder....

or maybe they have....

[FireFox]

*cough*Aurea*/cough*

Lupy and only Lupy will feel Umbris' prescence.

[ApeofLight]

Foro is drinking.

[Beholder1995]

*cough*Aurea*/cough*

Right. And Beholder died, if I remember correctly.

He just didn't stay dead for very long. And I fully expect to see Mark alive again before next weekend. I'd be wholly surprised if he wasn't.

[FireFox]

I was just pointing out that someone has indeed tried to kill him. Seriously.

The Dancing Fox


At an inn,
In a town,
With a magic shop,
Hangs a sign,
In the shape,
Of a Dancing Fox.

At a bar,
In a stool,
Which is slightly tatty,
Stands a man,
With a Sword called,
The Vauge Katti.

And the inn,
With sign,
Is a magi's den.
And the barkeep,
There we call,
Him Renn.

In a booth,
In the back,
Sits a giant eye,
And he is,
the Baron of a,
Manor nearby.

In the corner,
In the back,
Where it is,
Quite dark,
Umbris sits,
His eyes Alert.

And his charge,
In a mitre somewhat droopy,
Trogdor's
Exarch and,
Archbishop,
Lupy.

And behind,
The bar,
And not played by Mee,
Washing down,
The bar is the,
Lovely barmaid Leigh.

And with her shield,
And countenance,
Watching Leigh fill,
Her coffee with guarana,
Holding Quinsar's Scrawny hand,
The knight Orianna.

Her husband,
Is a little man,
With magicks to,
Kill the sun,
He is the ubermage,
Quinsar*.

And on the bar,
At the end of the room,
Shouting out,
"Hey! Hey!"
Town's comedian,
K!

And at the booth,
In the corner west,
A babe and her,
Mother,
Hannah and the warrior,
Jess.

And on the bishop's,
Shoulder sits a bird,
Sitting there in feath'ry,
Flesh,
Is the mighty Keeper,
Shor'esh.

The child god,
Up near the stage,
Her sister did,
Her hair up pretty,
Our favorite diety,
Young Civvi!

And near the,
Bishop at the bar,
Playing with a,
Fireball,
The Ignan Acolyte,
Leigh's young Mark!

At an inn,
In a town,
With a magic shop,
Hangs a sign,
In the shape,
Of a Dancing Fox...

Thanks to the Townies for the best summer ever!
--Lupy.

[ApeofLight]

Very nice lupy.

[FireFox]

That was kickass. Thank you, Loopy.

[Beholder1995]

Lupy- You. Win.

So... something just happened IC... right... I think someone died....

[Lupy]

((Nah, I owe it all to you guys.))

Archbishop Lupy is sitting in his usual place at the bar.

[ApeofLight]

Foro breaths out a bit of fire sitting at the bar.

[FireFox]

Umbris is in his corner. And at the Cathedral.
