(Oh, sorry, forgot to mention that the only spot the bullets weren't raining on was the ferret. Ermine, I meant Ermine)

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
Oh. Well in that case, kindly disregard the random symbols. Ermine stares up at the ceiling and the bullets plinking down around her.
"Well that'sh quite nice."
Are the random NPCs also shot at?

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
(1: I actually do admit defeat a lot. 2: Because Riv is now an eldritch horror, due to grafting THAT CAT's appendix onto himself, so getting beaten is gonna be hard. 3: How far out do the shields extend))
With another burst of light Riv re-appears, this time with weapons strapped to every possible point. Lifting a massive gun he fires a bolt of energy at Emily.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
Unfortunately, Emily is still partway through her perfect defence. She dodges the attack, seamlessly swaying out of the way.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
((No worries. That's just tipsy!Crissy.
...and the shields are personal shields. Ever watched Stargate Atlantis? Like the one McKay had in the one episode. Except these can be turned off. ))
Speaking of Crissy, she giggles a little at Dorotha's comment, and nods. "Yeah, really. Guess it's a 'mine's bigger than yours' thing, huh?"
Val, meanwhile, opens fire rapid-fire the moment Riv re-appears!

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
Let's see what the limits of Dodge Charms are. Riv says, pulling out the Time Gun. Bullets materialize everywhere around Emily, forming a rapidly contracting sphere of hot lead around her. Shoul someone try and parry the bullets they will weave out of the way, as they're homing bullets designed to avoid the whole "hide behind a rock" bit.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
((Yeah. And Dorotha's comment was an IC judgement of one character by another. Not meant to be taken personally.
Also, bit of a retcon in Dorotha's backstory here... >_>))
Dorotha nods. Oh, yes. I used to see it a lot. My father owns a tavern you see, and while it's not a seedy kind of tavern where thugs and adventurers drink, you still get situations like this one.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
Raz very quickly attempts to fold a portion of the bullets into a pocket dimension, making a hole for Emily

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
Ermine isn't involved in the fight! At least, she isn't actively fighting. She is a small ermine wearing a big and floofy hat with outrageously oversized feathers in it. Oh yes, and is getting a bit drunk from a bottle o' grog almost as big as she is.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
"You underestimate," says Emily, leaping upwards, pushing off of the air as if it were walls, rising higher than the bullets, and drawing her cannon once more.
"The ExALTED!"
She fires down, the blast big enough to consume the bullets, and curves the beam towards Riv. As she does, swirling power around her forms a shimmering petal shape, like a flower of gold and bloody red.Last edited by Lix Lorn; 2010-10-14 at 04:38 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
(These bullets are folding time around themselves like origami. Stopping them with any metaphysical powers is not gonna work, also the bullets were in a sphere formation around Emily, so if you jump you'll run into them.)

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
Fine. Riv says, holstering the gun. As it's obvious this won't be resolved through shooting each other, let's resolve it in the barbarian way you people favor. No Exalted charms or tricks, no technological wonders invented by a genius beyond anything the Nexus has ever seen. One versus one bar brawl, no other holds barred.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
((Kinda...in-between. A form-fitting bubble.
...also, you missed Val shooting at Riv earlier...))
Crissy nods, looking wide-eyeed at Dorotha. "Really, he did? Wow, I guess this place must kinda seem like home then huh?"

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
"No." she said simply. "You are a danger in the eyes of the unconquered sun. If you're gonna attack people in the bar, someone needs to stop you!"
...she's gonna regret this later.
(Sorry, who did I ignore? If you mean the bullet hell, the Exalted do have a perfect dodge thing, and I couldn't think of a better way of describing it. In actuality, she probably spiralled through, curving her body at amazing speed to go between the bullets)Last edited by Lix Lorn; 2010-10-14 at 04:50 PM.

((To be fair Morty, time-bending heat-seeking bullets ))
Ermine is not offended, luckily. Calling her a ferret would get her very riled up, but a weasel isn't such a big mistake.

A bit, yes. But Taverna Generica feels more like home. She pauses. I'm not sure if I miss it at all...
Whatever you say. I'm Wenomir.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
((Perfect Defense is something that needs to be used very judiciously in FFRP, that's true. Usually in exalted v. exalted fights, or by prior agreement For Great Justice. ))
"Oh."
Crissy pauses.
"You wanna go there then maybe?"

Ermine sways a bit. I think she may have been lying when she said she was okay with that amount of alcohol.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
(Sorry forgot, he suddenly has a whole lot of holes in him. Still not dead tho. Also, time-bending heat seeking bullets are completely fair, as they will actually kill HIM if someone makes him mess up.)
Fine Says Riv, pointing and clicking the gun from various angles. I'll just go kill some random people because you wouldn't take my generous offer. Or you could fight me here, on the terms I metioned, and I'll swear never to kill an innocent again. Of course, to make the stakes even, if I win I get a sample of Exalted magic. I'll give you one last chance to accept.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
((*waves hand* FFRP, not Exalted. No matter the loopholes, they do allow to just say "yeah, no" to an attack.))
((Also, dodging doesn't have to be a binary thing. She might dodge an attack but still get scratched, bruised etc.))
Well, it is one of the reasons I agreed to your idea...

Re: [Nexus] Trog's Tavern CCXI
I don't want Exaltation, and you're a walking example why, I want a sample of the magic you people use, even the tiniest amount would work, all I want to know is how it ticks.
