Gauche abandons combat and rushes for the bathrooms with great strain
Gauche emerges with buckets filled with fresh dragon feces which he launches at the blue monster aiming to blind her
( XD You wouldn't find dragon feces. They're just regular bathrooms. Having said that, I'm assuming you want to use the "Blind" active ability? )

I ignore everybody and go over to the library's bookshelf, looking for a spellbook that I could use to my advantage.

I also toss a lightning bolt at the dragon, because looking around is a free action!

Which should re-enable the passives of the hunters? But they are so bad this makes no difference... so, Lain keeps going with the old and true long-sword slash.

After playing Shadowrun Dragonfall, meeting a dragon at turn 12 just does not seem right.
Passives for you Hunters were never disabled. What kind of sorceress would I... I mean, she be if she caught a bunch of her servants in magical friendly fire? And don't know what you're complaining about. You got a ticked off dragoness on your side. Also, this may be the only time we use this universe for the official forum game, so we all better enjoy it as much as we can just in case.

Turn 13
Houseman/andersonnnunes: Carmin made a run for the library entrance, making the blue lizard woman turn her malevolent gaze to him. He didn't get far though as she slammed her massive tail down in front of the entrance, blocking it. "Oh, you're not going anywhere... " Her now deep voice rumbled across the cavernous room. And then there it was again. That annoying and deadly steel blade of Lain's. But luckily, the blade missed Carmin somewhat as he rolled out of the way, but still being nicked by it. Lain was still a rather skilled Hunter. Suddently though, Carmin felt the reverberations of power coming from some object in the glittering hoard. It looked like the library wouldn't be needed. he then turned and began to prepare a second volley of lightning. But before he could cast it, he soon found his gaze drawn to the dragoness' blue eyes, and soon, that irresistible familiar compulsion swept over him once more. His hands dropped, the spell going out. Then he knew what he needed so very much to do. He soon began to make his way to Gauche.

--Lain hits Carmin for 4 damage. Carmin has 34 HP left. Arnox hits Carmin with a Stare spell and temporarily takes control of Carmin this turn. Arnox still has 95 HP left.--

gaijinkaiju/Gauche: Gauche blinked as he soon saw Carmin as well as Aizen advancing on him and attacking. Aizen got there first with another expert slash of her longsword which only just missed Gauche this time. That extra speed was aggravating. Carmin's aim fared better though and Gauche was soon hit with lightning too, and this time, his regeneration was stopped again. After this though, Carmin blinked and staggered away, realizing what was happening to him and regaining control of his senses. Gauche shook his head and soon aimed and unleashed a huge blast of blinding light upon the dragoness, which hit her hard as she turned away, shielding her eyes from the sudden intense light.

--Aizen misses Gauche. Gauche still has 25 HP left. Carmin (Arnox) hits Gauche for 3 damage. Gauche has 22 HP left. Gauche hits Arnox with a Blind spell, halving her damage next turn.--

I look through the hoard for the object of power, and toss another bolt of lightning at the dragon

Lain had barely finished his last move when he felt his gaze drawn to the dragoness' blue eyes. If for his foe that gaze meant trouble, for Lain it was reassurance that, with the sorceress at his side, he could cause much havoc to his enemies. He would still need to convince her to join him on his grand quest, but that would have to wait and he was eager to prove himself worthy of her, so again he went after his foe with another long-sword slash.

Turn 14
Houseman/andersonnnunes: Lain was now making for Carmin with haste in eagerness to please his new Mistress, but before anything could be done by either party, the huge but temporarily blinded dragoness soon began flapping her wings, generating huge yet inherently magical blasts of wind. Carmin and Gauche were of course affected but once more, the sorceress was careful about friendly fire. The two victims of the blast were both hit to the ground and struggled to maintain action. But Lain was not phased and sliced down at Carmin with deadly determination which hit him in the side, making Carmin scream out and begin bleeding over the gold and jewels. Despite this, Carmin wasted no time in rolling away, continuing to try to pinpoint the source of reverberating power coming from his desired object. He had to focus or he would surely die. Knowing he was getting close, he soon sent a blast of lightning at the dragoness, making her roar in even more rage. This was a bad idea and the subsequent return blasts of wind soon inhibited almost all movement.

--Lain hits Carmin for 7 damage. Carmin has 27 HP left. Arnox hits Carmin with a Scatter spell and temporarily stuns Carmin for the next turn. Carmin hits Arnox for 3 damage. Arnox has 92 HP left.--

gaijinkaiju/Gauche: Aizen, seeing an opportunity, sliced at Gauche once more, but once more Gauche dodged out of the way. Right after that though, a blast of wind hit him down into the piles of coins, his face barely missing an expensive looking wooden chest as he fell down. Snarling, he slashed upward with his prismatic dagger and soon tore a slightly bigger slice out of the dragoness' hide and this time stealing a little of her life in the process coupled with his regeneration. But it seemed this coupled with Carmin's lightning soon made the lizard respond with an even more powerful gust that kept him still. Whatever Carmin was doing over there, Gauche hoped he would hurry the hell up already. They couldn't hold everyone off forever.

--Aizen misses Gauche. Gauche still has 25 HP left. Gauche hits Arnox for 3 damage and steals 2 HP and regenerates 2 HP. Arnox has 89 HP left. Gauche now has 29 HP left. Arnox hits Gauche with a Scatter spell and temporarily stuns Gauche for the next turn.--

I'm stunned, so I continue looking through the hoard, because looking around through the hoard is a free action.

Turn 15
Houseman/andersonnnunes: Carmin continued to search as much as he could while he lay there, but the object could not be found yet. Seeing an opportunity, the dragoness smiled a little and soon lunged forward again to bring her paw right onto Carmin's back, but Carmin rolled out of the way just in time. Nevertheless, a talon caught on his leg and tore some of his muscles, making him bleed out more upon the shining pile. And when Carmin was done rolling, Lain was there yet again with his own steely talon, inflicting even more pain upon the poor Possessed, and this time, his aim cut into him deep.

--Arnox hits Carmin for 5 damage. Carmin has 22 HP left. Lain hits Carmin for 7 damage. Carmin has 15 HP left. Arnox still has 92 HP left.--

gaijinkaiju/Gauche: Gauche clutched at a heavy chest in the fierce winds, but Aizen once again came for him, clearly getting quite annoyed. With a stroke of her blade, she slashed Gauche in the shoulder, but some quick movement kept it from being a deep cut. After this, the arcane winds finally died down and the dragoness spoke to both Carmin and Gauche, almost purring as she said her words. "This is really getting quite silly. I don't know what you two thought was going to happen here... Though I must say, I would be lying if I said I did not admire the tenacity of you both. Just give this foolish goal up. There is no reason why we cannot talk about this."

--Aizen hits Gauche for 4 damage. Gauche has 25 HP left.--

Gauche, help me dig around in this pile of gold. There's an object of power here that we can use to do something. The rest of you can help too, if you want. Or just keep hacking away at me.


I turn 90 degrees to the right and search some more.

(2+2 still equals 4 right?}
25+2+2=29
--Aizen hits Gauche for 4 damage. Gauche has 22 HP left.--
29-4=25

OK, I corrected it now.

Turn 16
Houseman/andersonnnunes: Carmin scrambled desperately among the treasure, trying to find that powerful object. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he sees something. Something like a scroll buried in the gold and glowing red. But before he could reach it, Arnox slammed her paw down in front of Carmin, her talons cutting into his foot, missing Carmin again, but only just. And Lain wasn't far behind, slicing into his shoulder, making Carmin scream out more. The Possessed was already starting to lose focus as his blood began to steadily flow out among the gold, but he clenched his teeth and with a moan of pain, cauterized his wounds. Lain smirked to him. One more good hit and Carmin would be finished.

--Arnox hits Carmin for 5 damage. Carmin has 17 HP left. Lain hits Carmin for 7 damage. Carmin has 10 HP left. Arnox still has 92 HP left.--

gaijinkaiju/Gauche: Aizen blinked and bit her lip, her resolve now beginning to waver. Or was she subtly under the sorceress' spell before? It didn't matter. She was confused now. But shaking her head, she made up her mind and aimed a black arrow at the first person to cross her vision. It was Carmin. Or at least, it would have been, had the dragoness lifted her paw from Carmin. But alas, the arrow soon hit the scaled hide of the dragoness. Arnox's eyes widened as she realized who had shot her and she soon glared at Aizen, advancing on her now. "Was that really meant for me, you foolish girl?" But if that didn't shock Arnox enough, soon Gauche began to... Purr at her? Arnox stopped her advance then and just looked at Gauche, bewildered.

--Aizen hits Arnox for 2 damage and applies a poisoned condition. Arnox has 90 HP left. (I think we're getting very close to the end, either way.)--

:rolleyes:

Lain feels the smell of death in the air. Death, that lovely eye candy, is waiting. Lain breathes deeply, trying to gather whatever oxygen is left in the air after the dragoness oxyded most of it with her fires. For it is only natural that when a resource is scarce that people try to kill one another, Lain shouts: SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST! and aims his wrathful long-sword slash at the bag of bone, blood and meat in front of him.

I thought Gauche was aiding me? Maybe it didn't count because he didn't explicitly say "I go help Houseman Carmin "?

Anyway, I go get that thing that's "something like a scroll"
