"But what's the point of having a tattoo there? I can hardly show it off. Not to mention it would probably hurt and there isn't much room to work with." Jasper protests, snuggling up with Legion.Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

"Oh, blah blah. All tattoo's are gonna hurt. Besides, it'd look cute." She's clearly joking now. Mostly judging by the laugh. "Well, other than that, I'd say get it on your arm here." She touches his bicep.My avatar was done by Gullara. Thanks again!

"It's not the pain that bothers me, it's the thought of feeling pain every time I sit down for a week. The arm sounds much more bearable." Jasper says, grinning. "Anyone ever tell ya that you have the prettiest laugh?"Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
The Steward, seemingly somewhat flustered and annoyed at the 'references' the merc made to the location, etc, opens the door wide before beginning to walk inwards. "Follow me then."
((I'll interrupt him and decide how much he's done once I tie up the latest arrival and the so far hilarious scene in EtherAin.))
The Lord, waving Molodai to be silent for a second, holds the gems out. "No, no. It appears you misunderstand. Mercenary contracts are where I give YOU money in return for your aid." He attempts to explain, obviously bemused at the fairy."Trust bladescape, Shadow of Doubt,"

"So, how much can I be expected to earn for helping you lot save your sorry behinds? Killin ain't cheap you know, and competent killin even less so. Not that finding a competent killer don't require a bloody miracle these days, which is why you should be glad I'm takin this job, sure enuff. Not the sorta thing I usually do either, but what the hell, I figure, try out something new every once in a while, maybe a new way of killin as well, and life'll never get borin." Danish rambles, searching through his pockets for something as he follows the steward. "Course, by the looks of you, you ain't one ta complain about a little boredom, are ya? Heck, by the looks of you, I'd guess you see less excitement an more boredom than a bookworm eating a dictionary, don't you? What do you fellows do around here anyway? Doesn't seem to be much of a scenic locale, and it's hardly a center of commerce."Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

"We were misplaced by the rift that brought us here. You will be payed depending on your performance." The steward is disliking this one immensely....
After a bit of a walk through all the hallways, they reach the map room where the steward leaves you. There already appears to be a cluster of mercs around the maps along with the strongly built Elf that appears to be the lord."Trust bladescape, Shadow of Doubt,"

"Whoah, whoah there bucky. This is speculative work?" Now Danish's tone is equal parts disgusted and disbelieving. "No wonder you don't have a single employee worth a two pound note that's been used as ******* toilet paper. Listen, mate, I don't do speculative work. What I do do is "bonuses as deemed earned", by which I mean, I want to hear a minimum figure, right now."Meese Mobster by smuchmuch.

Quinn thinks about this concept for a minute.
"Ohhhh. I get it. You pay people so that they help you. Like buying cookies! I like cookies. What are we doing here, anyway?"
Quinn has completely forgotten about the gemstones he gave to Lord EtherAin. He can decide whether or not to take them now.Awesome Faerie by Ceika

Jacques overhears the new mercenary, and makes a mental note to put him in charge of any possible suicide missions just for the insult.
He then switches gears to listen in on the speculation as to the enemy's defenses. That is extremely important.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
It's a beautiful chamber, with flowers and shrubbery around and a little fountain off to the side. Elven servants hurry through as they went about their business, what appears to be a young lady of some sort sits at the fountain, occasionally glancing at the two people in front of Lord EtherAin. There is also the constant pressence of armed guards, standing around, ready for action....
Now that last comment had Lord EtherAin looking bewildered and his player facepalming while giggling his head off.
"It's a mercenary contract... Didn't you come here to help me fight?"
The Steward is not liking this merc. "That's what being paid depending on your work is. Start at a base value and add bonuses depending on proficiency."
"Probably, unless we were extremely lucky and the rift accidently deprived them of their mages and such. Although that chance is too low to really consider. They have a lot of defense against the ground units, and their walls will be very hard to breach anyways. But they should have at least a few wards and energy shields somewhere around."

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
Quinn appears to have gotten his foot tangled in Molodai's hair somehow. He begins to free himself while he talks.
"We're here to fight people? Well, okay. I can fight. Who're we fighting, then?"
Quinn has actually become more tangled in Molodal's hair now.Awesome Faerie by Ceika

Molodai, meanwhile, remains completely oblivious to the two men. She wanders toward the fountain, hunched a little, sniffing near the woman.
One's an animal and the others a blabbermouthed fairy. What a team they'll make.Last edited by Murkus; 2011-10-10 at 02:15 AM.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
"[Reasonable Sum]." The older elf replies perfunctly, hiding the irritation behind a mask.
(Yes, I'm stealing Rebo's vagueries...)
... And just took Quinn away? Oh...
Lord EtherAin appears slightly bemused, and is about to reply when Molodai wanders away without realising that she's taken the fairy along with her. The girl looks up, smiling at Molodai. "Hello?""Trust bladescape, Shadow of Doubt,"

"Can't say that's anywhere near my usual fee, but what the hell, you fellas obviously need help or yer gonna get beaten to a bloody pulp, so I'll provide my expertise in the ways o' killing." Danish grins. Really, it isn't the money that matters to him. He just likes to murder, and figures getting paid to do so is a pretty sweet deal.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
The Steward waves him towards the tactics table, obviously saying 'The Lord and tacticians are over there.'.
"No, I don't think so. We use some technology and we've never had conflicts.. Well, apart from the fact that you can't power something with a combination of both, you can certainly go past magic without it frying something...""Trust bladescape, Shadow of Doubt,"

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII
[Deviant Mountain]
I don't really know why nitpick and on what, but I assume it's the giant shadow. Well the shadow was lying down and can be animated if Fade wants. The giant can partly be animated due to his size and that's what happened. The hand from him animates from the floor upwards to the girl to grap her. The problem is I think she has flames around her but isn't covering herself in flames. So actually ony a shadow hand is animated and tries to grap and crush the fire girls until she is unconscious. (If you have questions don't hesitate to ask sometimes it's just due to my bad writing)
Actually Fade has noting to block the chakram (which isn't an magical weapon I assume?). He takes a hit to his side and black blood spout out of the wound. The blood doesn't even reach the ground befor it burns away.
The energy bolt seems to be blocked by the sword Fade has. He can't block such a normal weapon, but the energy.Grammer is my declared deadly enemy!

Quinn is curious to know who he's going to be fighting, but he's really quite stuck in Molodai's hair. So, he just goes along with Molodai. He could teleport back to Lord EtherAin, but that would be cheating! Molodai can probably feel Quinn's struggles at this point.Awesome Faerie by Ceika

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII

Assault is certainly one option, and probably the best. I would recommend doing something to scout the enemy before setting up a full-scale assault, however. We wouldn't wan't to run into a minefield, after all...
His focus has returned to the tactical map. He appears to have left his copy of The Art of War out on the table as well, if anyone desires to reference it.Last edited by BladeofObliviom; 2011-10-10 at 12:07 PM.

Re: [Nexus] Outside XXVII

The shadow hand does grab the girl... but a light from the lantern emanates out, and the flame in the lantern is much hotter than it should be. And she's really hard to crush...
The zapping guy continues to zap uselessly. The other guy throws his other chakram at fade, and the first one returns. This may result in fade getting hit by two chakrams at the same time.
The girl with the gloves notices the hand, and goes to tear into it and break it.Last edited by Lost_Deep; 2011-10-10 at 05:48 PM.
