Not ready to engage a battle at this moment, Kenzar observes quietly with more than passing interest. He takes a good measure of each of the combatants all the while searching for any possible allies to either waiting for their moment to join the fray so he can stop them. (keeping the fight even)
|
Seeing the man standing between the two, I decide it best to keep my interests to myself. (however, I'll keep an ear cocked and an eye to it's corner for a peek)

I seriously doubt that Elminster would have any time at all to have anything to do with your petty battle. Even ehe archmage of the city probably could care a less. ------------------ http://thedutkanator.50megs.com/images/mgcpg11.gif "I'm sorry, did I kill you?" |
little dwarf, with Crom Feyer clinging down his belt, is watching who will make the first move,,, when suddenly he sees an old man casting hold person
they r both hold, thats good for now but who is that old man ??????????? |
but who cares who is he
he stopped some serious fight so dwarf (whose name is Gd_00, same as mine) decide to buy an old man a drink. Yo old man what do u wanna drink, its on me ive just collected my taxes im full of money |
Lord Raptor waits until Elminster has left. Then he slips a Ring of Free Action on Viconia. Viconia tips a bucket of spew on Angel's head
|
OCC
How long is this hold person spell gonna last!? ------------------ http://thedutkanator.50megs.com/images/mgcpg11.gif "I'm sorry, did I kill you?" |
Long enough for everyone to take advantage of a paralyzaed Angel. Hey, we can always top up the Hold Person to make it last longer. ANybody wanna spray graffiti on her?
|
Only kidding, Angel. Lord Raptor figures she's had enough and treats her to a barrel of beer. The fight got Viconia's temperatur hot and she drags Lord Raptor upstairs. Neither will be seen for some time
. Incidentally, travelling with LR put Viconia up to 40th level (I hit the new XP cap) - she controlled all the liches so LR could backstab them, and she killed Kangaxx with one hit using the upgraded Mace of Disruption. She could also summon 5 Aerial Servants which LR enchanted for those special moments when dragons survived all my damaging clouds |
Kenzar acquires a room from the barkeep and descreetly disappears upstairs.

Ahh, Lord Shield so we meet again. So this is where the infestation of "Old ones" is coming from. I will keep an eye on this place! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
|
Hate to disappoint you, but the Old Ones reference was simply a bit of role-playing on Valhalla board, for the benefit of the fantasy-theme bar. Hell, if you have One-Winged Angel and a supposed sex-goddess, why not an Old One, eh?
. BG2 characters welcome, all Valkyries will be disintegrated at the door. Have a pleasant time! [This message has been edited by Lord Shield (edited 05-01-2001).] |
Well I'm not role-playing a BG2 character OR a valkyrie. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif So that shouldn't matter. So are u trying to tell me that you really HAVEN'T drunk too much whiskey and deluded yourself into believing that u are from an ancient race far superior even to the gods? http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif LOL

Nope. I was just joining in the role-playing fun (still am over there)
. All the references to Old Ones I use come from TSR references (particularly the appearance of one in "Immortal Fury"). When my brother and I had two characters achieve such a status (by becoming a full hierarch God twice, i.e., in two separate lifetimes), I created the philosophy and names around them. Later characters added to the roster . Lord Shield was originally a Mystic/Psionicist. In his second life, he was a Paladin. He joined the Old Ones. While alive, he worked as an agent for Lord Thought (originally an elf Fighter/Mage), keeping an eye out for Godly activity. The downside to working for Thought was the helter-skelter of his sanity, but he got it back in the end . After some hours, Lord Raptor and Viconia come back downstairs. They pay their tab and make their way out, for a pleasant evening decimating Imnesvale |
Kenzar comes down, gets a mug of fine wine, and heads back up stairs.(After taking a good look around to see that there is no threat to his safety)
------------------ http://thedutkanator.50megs.com/images/meaeg11.gif "I'm sorry, did I kill you?" |
Lord Shield appears before Kenzar (in private) and asks him what's wrong - nothing can harm each other in his tavern with his protection, after all. And there's endless amounts of Bhaalchildren to fend off armies, etc., with. If it makes life easier, he'll send a keg of beer up to your room so you don't have to be seen so often, though (if that's what you want)
|
C'mon, Kenzar, don't be shy. Wassup, man?
|
The bar door opens once again, admitting a bloodied, somewhat dazed young Paladin, clad in dented armour and dragging a glowing golden sword behind him. The Paladin manages two... three... four steps, before collapsing in a heap nearby a table.
Slowly, the Paladin raises a hand. "Um... Greater Healing Potion on the rocks, barkeep..." The arm thuds back down onto the floor. The hand falls open, and a small matchbox falls out of it. The matchbox bears the legend 'Crooked Crane'. All the other patrons of the bar nod knowingly... Tancred |
All right who was the one who wants to spray Angel with graffiti. Does the person want to deal with a dozen of my Drangonrider friends and their Dragons. Because don't you people know who you are dealing with. You are dealing with Angel the Patron Ruler and Protector of The High Forest. Bladesinger. Close personal friend to Amlaruil, Queen of All Elves and Elminster the Mighty Sage of Shadowdale. Hunter of all Evil Drow on Toril. So next time be more careful. And don't worry my friend Elminster has alittle surprise for Viconia. So i will have the last laugh at Viconia

The wounded Paladin watches the strange, bragging figure with a somewhat incredulous glare and a cocked eyebrow.
|
Angel says to the Wounded Paladin that I am not bragging.
OCC I have been playing this character for the past 15 years. Angel is her nickname her real is Tahl'lia or BladeMistress. I have been playing AD&D since i was 15 years old. This was the first character I started with. So yes I am friends with Amlaruil and Elminster. ------------------ http://angelfire.com/rpg/castletainly/gifs/ps5.gif Taste My Steel -Blademaster |
Tancred nods as he pulls himself into a seat.
"Ah... I see. You... you should really get all that printed on a shirt, you know. I had one made by this Fael fellow down at Imnesvale." The paladin searches through his pack, eventually unearthing a somewhat grubby shirt. The words 'I survived the Umar Hills dungeon and all I got was this lousy T-shirt' are still readable through the grime. Eventually, the Potion with Ice arrives, and Tacred has a grateful swig. He perks up almost immediately. "AH! That's more like it! Can't get a decent drink from here to Tethyr, you know. Place is a credit to..." He tails off, a puzzled look on his face as he surveys the bar. He takes one deep sniff. "I... (sniffs again) I can smell... Drow." |
Angel says to Tancred The Drow Bitch went upstairs with Lord Raptor
------------------ http://angelfire.com/rpg/castletainly/gifs/ps5.gif Taste My Steel -Blademaster |
The bar door opens purposefully once again seemingly of it's own accord, this time without making a sound. The patrons look out through the open doorway in curiosity, and can see nothing throuth the dark and driving rain. After a moments pause, a figure dressed in a dark black homespun robe with a whipcord belt walks into view. His deep hood casts shadow on all of his features save for his eyes which were startlingly visible as they faintly glowed beneath his cowl. This dark figure paused momentarily in the doorway, his glowing eyes calmly surveying the room and missing nothing. The bars patrons stared in wonder at how the rain was pouring directly on this hooded enigma without apparently getting him wet whatsoever. The robed man then began to walk purposefully to the bar and proceeded to sit in the corner with the least amount of light in it. All of the patrons watched in silence as the figure slowly raised up his arms to pull the hood of his robe back. As the light pierced through the shadows previously concealing his features, they noticed what appeared to be a young man, normal in all outward appearances except for his eyes. While his features seemed ordinary for one of his apparent age, his eyes looked timeless.
"Bartender" he calmly calls, flagging down the harried looking barkeep. "I'd like an ale" he states, looking directly into the barkeeps eyes. Saying nothing, the bartender returns a moment later with an ale. The young mage leans back against the wall cooly surveying the room, taking his ease with his ale in his hands. ------------------ "The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his." -General George Patton (1885-1945) http://www.123imagehost.com/images/t...amber5copy.jpg |
"Actually", says a mage to Tancred, "the chicken and the drow left a while ago. He leans back
. The paladin doesn't sens any Bhaalian descent in this character and asks him why he's here . The paladin gulps as the mage whispers . "I come from Greyhawk via Spelljammer ship. I am a veteran of the Temple of Elemental Evil, the Slave Lords, the Demonweb Pits, and others. My colleagues are about too. We are 1st Edition PCs and proud of it - My magic personally killed Zuggtmoy, Llolth (she was pissed), Iuz and Vecna - we didn't bother poncing them through a portal - when one of these Bhaalians gives 'there can be only one' and becomes the new God of Murder - we'll do for him/her too" . Lord Shield apologises to Angel on behalf of Lord Raptor. "Apparently, he thought you were that blonker from the Buffy series - no offence intended apparently, hence the beer as way of apology" |
Milambers gaze settles on Lord Shield as he whispers to Tancred, evaluating the mage and paladin. He cocks an eyebrow in interest as he hears of Lord Shields exploits, but appears otherwise unconcerned.

Exploits
. 1) Lord Shield originally came from Earth. He had been stabbed in the back 2) He possessed his evil counterpart in Mystara - Martial Artist meets Priest of Nyx - he was forever at odds for control until their split much later 3) He ended up as Emperor on Mystara 4) He ended up becoming a powerful lich (not evil though) and had to hide this fro mthose around him 5) He ended up betrothed to Nyx 6) He started "The Horde" - primary 8 members, others gathered. This was Mystara's answer to a Justice League 7) He ended up as the Dark God of Vigilantes - his sanity was recovered at the expense of his memories of his life which didn't recover for some time 8) He married Nyx. When Alphatia sunk, he replaced it with "The Black Continent" where Undead could live and not need to feed on the living 9) His home plane (Demi-plane of Shadows) became a full-sized plane and he developed a new breed of supernatural critter - the Darklings . etc. 2nd life wasn't as colourful. Was a paladin known later as 'The Golden Defender' - this time he became a God in the Sphere of Matter (not Entropy) . There's more, involving 7 others (including his brother - shudder!) but that's it for now |

A deft use of Detect Evil assures him that the face he sees is a borderline friendly one. Quote:
"Are you going to order me a drink, or do I have to start slicing heads?" Tancred |
Beside the sword appears a tankard of viking cide-oil, which the paladin rubs nto the sword, hearing a satisfying "mmm" noise come from it. For the next couple of hours, this sword will be drunk, but the paladin doesn't figure on getting in any scraps for a little while anyway
. "Don't worry, lad" says an armoured figure. Your powers tell you this guy is also a paladin, ala BG2 with the Holy Avenger too. "I beat it without the Cloak of Mirrors, so I did - damn those beholders - had to flood the buggers with summonings from my mateys" . The mage, Netebbor, moves away into some shadows. Anybody following doesn't find him - but he's around - waiting for whoever wins ToB evilly |
Poor draggor (nursing some injuries) looks on in awe at the god like figures ,having no idea of his true heritage yet for some reason not feeling totally out of place. He is too busy wondering who's this 'Sarevok' bloke he's heard about.
'Can I get another Black Dragon Ale over here' ------------------ Just when you thought it was safe to visit this board. |
Sarevok was the weakest little dipshit I have ever fought. Just as he was about to die he begged for mercy. But after what he did to my one of my best friends I showed him no mercy
------------------ http://angelfire.com/rpg/castletainly/gifs/ps5.gif Taste My Steel -Blademaster |
Sarevok was a sad little man. Not being able to relate to women, he took out his frustrations on lower level characters, making sure he was magic resistant and fire-immune first (poor baby was too scared to fight fair)

Hayashi ambles in, pleased at having made Lord of a Keep (I just finished
Nalia's quest http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif ). "An ale for everyone!" he shouts at the barkeep, "I have found a keep! And it's a keeper!" He settles in at the bar and looks around whilst groans at the terrible pun emanate from the other patrons. ------------------ "Butt-kicking for goodness!" - Minsc http://www.angelfire.com/rpg/wildlep...n/images/w.gif [This message has been edited by Hayashi (edited 05-02-2001).] |
Suddenly they here fighting comeing from outide. then sudenly Artemis Entrerie comes flying through a window. then the door opens and in steps Drizzt. artemis jumps up and drizzt flies at him. artemis jumps over drizzt shouting "DIE DROW B*ST*RD". artemis hits drizzt to the ground. pulling out his dagger artemis grabs drizztand neels on his back to make the final plunge with his dagger. then suddenly elminster blasts artemis off drizzts back then holding them both tells them to get along or else.
------------------ http://website.lineone.net/~mark.langridge/MNO3A3.gif Bruce The Aussie, Camp Barbarian Hunter OHF jester of LH and Master Beastmaster of the clan of the Kats |
Lord Shield takes Drizzt aside. He books him in for counselling because he obvviously cannot get on. "What kind of example are you trying to set. Kids look up to you for crying out loud" - After a couple of hours of this, Drizzt shamefacedly decides it's about time he visited his relatives (not having seen them for some time) and get in touch with his inner self
. LS thanks Elminster but tells him not to worry. The window is whole. "All wounds heal as soon as they're caused, and nobody can die within these walls. This is a drinking establishment not a place for murderers, thieves and liches round the back" |
after that scene Gd_00 thinks he realy needs a drink
Bartender! Ale here! |
Artemis stands up clutching his aching side he walked over to the bar an orders a potion of healing and a Bhaalor ale.sitting down at the table next to lord shield. he put his dagger away used the potion of healing and took a sip of his ale.
------------------ http://website.lineone.net/~mark.langridge/MNO3A3.gif Bruce The Aussie, Camp Barbarian Hunter OHF jester of LH and Master Beastmaster of the clan of the Kats |
Lord Shield gives a wink and speeds up the process. All of Artemis' wounds heal up. The ache is still there, however. LS and Artemis have a long discussion of times gone by. LS convinces Artemis he could make a better living being more heroic and will quite happily sponsor him for a start to his new career. Artemis thanks him and goes off to try and save Imnesvale from Lord Raptor and Viconia. LS is an evil bastard sometimes
|
how can LS change the alighnment of a character he chaotic evil he'd go and help LR and viconia
--------------- a little info about artemis he's CE alighned. drizzt is his nemasis. ------------------ http://website.lineone.net/~mark.langridge/MNO3A3.gif Bruce The Aussie, Camp Barbarian Hunter OHF jester of LH and Master Beastmaster of the clan of the Kats |
Simple hypnosis applied during the conversation. And Lord Raptor and Viconia will kick his butt to hell! (After all, LR killed Drizzt in the game when Drizzt attacked him). He doesn't want to change people's alignments, just to punish those who fight in his bar
