The Eye of Anubis: OOC Thread

[Nathan of the FoS]

I should've gone for the full Courage - Jaded - Open mind feat set. *sigh* .

I have said the same thing to myself more than once already.

[Rock of the Fraternity]

At least you pulled through this time. Give 'im heck from me, 'kay? I'm going to be worse than useless for the next six rounds, and I'm not sure where it is I'm fleeing. Guess I'll talk to NeoTiamat about that ...

[NeoTiamat]

Straight up is good.

[Rock of the Fraternity]

Straight up is good.

It doesn't have unlimited future, though. Eventually, straight up turns into straight down at accelerating velocity. Especially when the magic runs out.

I'll do my best. Chaz ain't really built for giving heck to the undead, though (although he's off to an astonishingly good start).

So who here besides me and lostboy are REALLY wishing they spent some cash on a magic weapon?...this is going to be a rough fight, though, not counting loosing Lia (which SUCKS), we're not doing too awful.
Yet.
...god i hope +2 is enough of a bonus.

[lostboy]

Yup I took the "oh were going on a desert expedition and into a tomb" thing too literally and wacked all the cash on stufff that isnt very useful in a forest, in Barovia, at night, fighting a ghost of a man Ive killed once already, and having lost one of our main magic-type people.

meh, anyone need any sunblock?

[The Whistler]

Drat and blast. Looks like I'm out, too. The pistol I dropped is a masterwork distance weapon, if it'd help anyone; it's loaded, but Otto's carrying the spare powder and bullets...

Now where'm I running?

[Kaitou Kage]

I get six bolts of lightning...wish me luck

[The Whistler]

Ranged attacks repre-SENT! Knock him dead, Kaitou.

...Erm...dead-er.

[NeoTiamat]

Otto my dear, you are running off *away* from Stefan, which at his last known coordinates means around the cottage and deeper into the woods. North by Northwest.

Enjoy the wolves!

[The Whistler]

Oh, poop.

Well, as my grandmother always said, "It isn't a proper night-time in Barovia unless you're desperately clawing through menacing wilderness trying not to get eaten by things."

[Rock of the Fraternity]

Your gran plays D&D? Cool.

[Nathan of the FoS]

Suddenly, several of the skeletal gardeners, tending their patches of flowers and vegetables, began to levitate. They scrabbled futily, trying to reach their shovels and spades and pitchforks into the now distant plants.

"CATCH!" Stefan shouts, the sound echoing around the cottage. With a rush, the entire skeletal, gruesome mess is thrown at Tomas. Farming tools and skeletons alike fly towards the porch as though shot from a cannon. One of the skeletons flies above Tomas, crashing against the cottage wall, but the rest of the grisly bundle hits the Lamordian with a loud cracking of bones and tools, splitting apart, jabbing and piercing, sending shards of bone and wood spraying.

That's, like, the weirdest attack I've ever seen or heard of a ghost using. The skeleton cannon?

I guess all those years of grave robbing gave Stefan ample time to consider his tactics.

[yalenusveler]

It's defiantly one of the creepiest images I've seen in a long time. Neo, defiantly getting points for this one. Even if this could've been avoided as a combat encounter (My first words to Lia once we survive? "I told you so"), it's defiantly going to be one of the most memorable I've had.
