Let me guess that means less women for Falcon.

Question? Oh...

Well at this rate, it would look like Falcon would have better chances if I turned him into a girl.

Well Imeena, Paris, Erinn (If there's other bi/lesbian girls for Nina to have an A support with) Tyra, Adele. So not that horrible.

[Water_and_Wind]

Imeena's as straight as can be, but girls have confessed to her before.

EDIT: yay, looks like Lenz has seen the light.

[Penguinator]

Paris is straight, but currently disinterested. (Since Argoth failed to carry out his promise, and he was the only one she'd even interacted with)

He's pious, so Paris or Madeline could work. As he was once married, he's likely disinterested (aside from rather old for them) in finding a new partner, and they're also disinterested (Paris for the moment, anyway) in finding partners.

It may be possible. However, it seems like Illven desired such a role for Nina.

I'm not sure I understand Kasanip's latest IC post. Does that mean Madeline hates Imeena now or what?

Sorry for the confusion. The meaning was to be Madeline is upset. Her oracle purpose to be here is to help Imeena, but maybe it is impossible.
It's a miserable situation for Madeline.

Hugo's deceased wife almost shares the same name with Madeline. That should be interesting once he's learned her name.

I see. Right now there's a distance between Imeena and Madeline since one is highly religious and the other not religious at all. Madeline has provided a bit of emotional support to Imeena so far but if we can find something that resonates with the both of them then Madeline would be able to fulfill her purpose as given by the oracle. Let me write up some fluff on the Kubravarain family, maybe that might help.

At the end of the day, the most butch-looking woman is the confirmed straight woman.

[Ascaloth]

Most butch-looking? Are we talking about Imeena or Adele here?

Oh, you're right, Adele is pretty butch looking too. Well, so at least one is confirmed straight.

[Ascaloth]

Oh, while you're still here Water_and_Wind. Is making a hat-less Falcon within the realm of possibility here? I know it's probably not the easiest thing to do, but eh, no harm asking.

[Acanous]

Yes, it *IS* hard to pin down the flighty archer. In fact, the only way we've seen thus far to get Roland to stay in one place short of incapping him, is to use a ballista like a paperweight.

If you want to get some support gains with Roland, this IS the battle to do it in.

Plus, with that gate right there and the constant threat of reinforcements, having someone nearby to screen isn't a bad idea.
Maybe have Falcon come hang out while he heals? If you like, you can trade for Roland's Vulnerary. Gives you a reason to be there, and won't interrupt my siege engineering.

Sure I'll try.

[Sairyu]

The Turn 8 update is posted.

It's a good thing Roland rolled SPD last level-up.

[Steilos]

Hello again. Reposting my charactersheet and following whatever plan is on the table.

EDIT: Wait, there's no plan. Oh well, I have an idea anyway.

Callum Standford AKA Callum Corbonne

"For the honour of the Corbonnes, I shall strike down the sucker- AHEM, ENEMY!"

Name: Callum Corbonne
Class: Mounted Knight
Gender: Male
Age: 33
Affinity: Dark
Items: Vulnerary 3/3, Iron Lance 40/40
Weapon Ranks: Lances D
Stats and Growths

Spoiler

Stat	Base	Growth
Hp	18	60%
Str	5	40%
Skl	6	40%
Spd	7	40%
Lck	3	40%
Def	6	45%
Res	2	25%
Con	12

Personality:

Spoiler

Callum is a slippery sort. He seems to generally espouse chivalric knightly ideals and the following of them therewith but seems a little sketchy on some of the minuitae. He seems to be far more cynical and world-weary than fellow knights, quite capable and willing to out scammers, conmen and other ne'er-do-wells. For a knight and supposed protector of the people, he seems conservative, almost tentative about actually fighting and seems to value his own life quite highly. He has an explanation for all of this though: As a scion of the disgraced House Corbonne he lived in the dregs most of his youth and ultimately is inexperienced in true, proper battle. His education in the chivalric arts is also incomplete as a result. How much of this is true

Spoiler

none of it

and how much of this is false

Spoiler

all of it

is up for debate, however.

Background:

Spoiler

Callum Standford was born in a slum in the capital city of Farin, where his parents died young and left him as an urchin. He discovered he had a silver tongue soon after, and used it to make his living, scamming the others in his neighbourhood out of every coin they had. He soon became a self-taught con master, ripping off large swathes of people and becoming very rich indeed.

That was when he had the idea. After nicking some old heraldry from the warehouses, he eventually found the Corbonne family. Upon ordering a specially-crafted set of armour bearing the bright green colours of the family he had chosen to imitate, he got himself a fine auburn charger by the name of Lantern and set up shop as a mounted knight of Farin, a scion of an old, disgraced family looking to redeem his family's honour. Really, he was only in it for money, the fame and the princesses.

But upon discovering that he actually was expected to fight in the army, Callum bolted with everything he had. He made up some story about being killed in battle as he fled, and promptly absconded to Hiroth to begin conning anew. But his luck couldn't last and he was one day found out by the locals. If Callum Standford were to escape the noose, Callum Corbonne would have to ride again...

[Ascaloth]

Well, we didn't manage to take Sword Cavalier #5 out, and now Roland's hurting. That was lucky, it could have ended badly.

Next turn's plan;

Madeline to C-E6, heals Imeena.

Imeena recruits Adele, moves to C-E10 and attacks Archer #2. If the latter dies, Imeena cantos to C-D12 and Visits; if not, she cantos to C-E9.

Adele to C-C11.

Pariso to C-E7, she's been playing taxi long enough, time to bring her back to the fray.

Wotan to C-N11, attacks Lance Cavalier #8 with Hand Axe.

Oren to C-N12, attacks Lance Cavalier #8.

Callum to C-L6, attacks Mercenary #4, cantos to C-M10.

Argoth to C-L6, attacks Mercenary #4.

This should weaken Mercenary #4 enough to let Durnock have the kill. Durnock to C-K5, attacks Mercenary #4.

Roland stops shooting for a while to take a Vulnerary.

Falcon to C-N10, takes his last Vulnerary.

Lloyd shouts at Galer's Sword Cavalier #4 to "give me a ride dammit". If that still doesn't work, he goes to W-E16.

And I think that covers everyone. How does that look?

[Illven]

Can someone recruit and then attack?

[Steilos]

I like the plan. We need to recruit as Ilven said, though.

Anyway. I owe you all an apology for disappearing like that, so I whipped something up which 'm putting in my next IC post.

[Ascaloth]

No big deal if recruit-attack isn't possible, we can retask the recruiting to Paris instead.

[Steilos]

Alright, post out. In addition, can the link to the OOC in the IC thread by changed to link to this OOC thread? Pretty minor, I know, but it's the little things that count, as a wise man once said.

[Ascaloth]

Oh hey Sairyu, Falcon's EXP dropped from 60 to 49 again. *kicks*

[Sairyu]

Right. I forgot to update the Recruitment/IC threads; it will be done.

Talk/Recruit->attack isn't possible.

Edit: fixed the EXP... for good this time.

[Ascaloth]

No biggie, Paris can recruit Adele right?

@Steilos,

Oh, LOLWUT?!

[Steilos]

I made a crossdressing portrait as a gag, figured I'd need something to get back into the IC as well as an apology for being away for so long, took one look at the portrait and went "...why the hell not?"

As for why Callum thought this was a good idea... better save that for after the battle, eh?

[Sairyu]

Do I need to update the map with that sprite?

Edit: my heart says yes by my brain says no

[Steilos]

If it isn't too much trouble, then sure.

[Ascaloth]

Updated with Falcon's latest post.



"Yeah, that wasn't quite what I had in mind when I wished for a lovely lady cleric..."

EDIT: Before I forget, someone should shout at Lenz to tell him not to, like, charge to his freakin' death.

Imeena can ORKO Archer 6. Have Paris do the recruiting, Imeena attack Archer 6 & canto to C-E9, and Adele attack Archer 2 from C-E10.

I don't think C-F9 and C-G9 are passable tiles, so that's one. Two, put a Level 1 Soldier within range of two Archers, a Sword Cavalier AND a Ballista? I... don't think that's anything short of suicide.

That's 4 (x3) & 6 damage for a total of 18. Plus there's an 80~ chance it will only be one Archer.

Edit: D'oh, you're right, I thought the Shop was one over.

I'm talking about Archer #3 and #6, not Archer #2. And I don't think Imeena can ORKO Archer #6, although to be fair I've not looked at the numbers. And that's not taking into account any possible criticals.
