The worst why to be tortured by one, is to be made fun of the entire kingdom. The laughter of the men, women, and children of Dunnor, disgusted him. Rick will not tolerate this humility, and certainly will strike back at him, and humiliate him by defeating him once he is alone. But now is not the time. Now is the time to make up a strategy on what to do, how to get out, and most importantly, how to get back his weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishers64 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 OOC: Sorry for the delay, Canis. Just couldn't think of anything. IC (Macky): The group approached Falcon's Roost. "So, about the scrying thing?" Macky put in. I wonder...Grimpen talked about magical familiars, and Stacey talks to me and everyone else, so maybe it's something unique to Stacey, and that's why Grimpen can't get me, because he doesn't have the same gift. Macky scratched his chin, deep in thought. Stacey smiled at him. Better stop postulating. It's a theory, like the other "killers" theory. But maybe a wizard will know. "Maybe we should give it a try." Macky said. Stacey shrugged. She turned and addressed Grimpen. "The scrying thing...how does one do that? I mean, can we get someone to do that for me?" IC (Dakxer): Dakxer got up, his back stiff and sore, only to see the noonday sun beating down. Dakxer rode to the west half of town, his horse sweating beneath him. This is the place. But instead of a house in the space where his magic house had been, there was nothing but a crumbling ruin. He shouted his rage and grief to the four winds. His brothers' killer must be two steps ahead of him. Can he sense my powers? Or worse yet, was there some power here hiding the truth from him? He pressed his hand to the stone, opening his sense, looking for dark energy. But his mind was blurry - he had trouble focusing, and he had used up most of his energy on the scrying attempt. He couldn't sense anything, though. No, I must find him! He strained himself, sensing everything - even the minute traces of dark energy emitted by couples fighting two blocks away and the screams of pain as his own knights pillaged in the name of Basil. But nothing was wrong with the rock, only that it had been a house that was destroyed long ago. I'm got to try the scrying power again... He collapsed, exhausted, and darkness covered his vision once more. Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canis Lycaon Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 IC: Jack StormThe prisoner dropped to the ground. Jack looked at him, and motioned to the guards. He spoke a small, simple sentence that sent shudders down the backs of all of the assembled patronage. "Take him to The Pit." IC: Benjamin GrimpenThe knight looked at the girl. He said, "Well, the Falcon's Roost, due to it's proximity to the Blasted Wastes, is a bastion of magic. They have one of the largest libraries of magical spells in all of Albion. Once there, you will be able to find someone with the magical power to scry." He thought about what he had just said and continued, "The Blasted Wastes is a land scarred by magic. An evil sorcerer lived there, and fought a good wizard. Their battle was the great, and destroyed the landscape." Quote I used to have a banner here. But that RPG is dead. What now?

fishers64 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) IC (Stacey): Stacey looked up at the fortress, a bit awestruck. She had never seen anything like it. IC(Macky): Macky listened to Grimpen's tale of the wizard battle. "Interesting." he said, poking Stacey. Stacey ignored him, mostly paying attention to the gates opening to admit the travelers. Grimpen was still talking, but Macky could tell Stacey wasn't paying attention to him.

The rider crossed his arms idly, watching the vampire with an unchanging expression. "Two were dead with looks of surprise on their face. A third several yards away, slumped against a tree. As if caught in the midst of a retreat." "But what was most unusual was the lack of fatal wounds. Wounds inflicted by standard weapons at least. Two punctures on the neck, spaced quite strangely for a manmade weapon. And the body was distinctly pale, no blood found anywhere nearby, though wounds such as that should have bleed extensively.""You wouldn't know anything about that, would you?

Wyrd Bid Ful Araed Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 And Adders is that whole stopping the trolls thing still going on?Yes it is IC: With three of the trolls fleet ablaze, and a fourth throwing up sparks and embers as Meredith's team did their work, the trolls started to take notice. And while their main force of warriors had gone to meet the defenders there were still squires - or whatever the troll equivalent of squires were - hanging back. A few charged headlong at Meredith's crew...and were simply cut down for their trouble. But another couple had the idea of manning a pair of ballistae that hadn't been reduced to ash, using them to open fire on the sneak attack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a two story drop, and the only exit is up. But if remembers correctly, there should be a small hole on the right which cannot be seen from above. Only from the bottom of the pit, you can see it. There is also a pile of bones on the left, and rock where the hole is on, is loose. Too bad no one knows this, since they never check to see if they died. Before dumped in there, the victims are severely tortured, then kicked off it's edge to break any bones. With the addition of no food, water, and light, the victim dies of fear, insanity, and hunger.

fishers64 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 IC (Stacey): Stacey walked over to the scryers. "Can I help you?" A kind looking young magician stepped up. "Maybe" said Stacey. "I'm looking for my parents. The man who brought me here said that you could find them for me." "Sure. Do you have anything to focus the magic, anything your parents owned, anything like that?" "No, I'm sorry, I don't. Do I need something like that?" "No, no don't worry about it. Do you know where they are likely to be?" "No, I don't. I was abandoned at birth, left for dead in a forest." "Actually, that's helpful. Do you know where that is?" Stacey did her best to describe where it was. Macky piped in a couple times to help. "Okay, take my hand." The two walked over to a scrying mirror. He concentrated for a few moments, saying words Stacey didn't understand and didn't try to figure out. Flashes. Stacey saw the place she and Macky decribed, then a little baby. Two knights stood over it. One was black, carrying a bat sigil, the other green. He looked like a Forestman. Stacey felt Macky shiver. A moment passed, Then two. "I don't see a life-thread-beginning in the forest for you." The scryer said. "That is the earliest moment. I'm going to try Dunnor - I assume the Forestman was just a guide." Stacey nodded. A couple of haggard faces appeared on the screen. Their mouths opened as if in pain. Macky screamed and covered his eyes. The image changed, and a female face appeared, wearing green and carrying a sword. Touching a women's belly. Speaking. A man standing by. The haggard faces appeared again, this time with mouths closed, sealed tightly shut. The green woman appeared again, pale and ghastly, surrounded by red. Stacey felt light-headed. Leaned against a table. breathed. "Where?" Macky said, taking his paws off his eyes. "Dunnor." said the magician. "I would advise against traveling there." Seeing Stacey's face of confusion, he added "It's the home of our enemy, Lord Basil." "Great" Macky grumbled. "Rescue mission involving an enemy fortress, a pair of old people who can't ride and are likely half-dead, and a girl without any means of getting in. When can we start?"

Meant you didn't have to get close enough to the thing to let it stab you, and the sheer power a crossbow could put behind a quarrel was capable of punching through armour and troll-hide with no difficulty. The only problem was reloading. Crossbows weren't so good with the reloading.
