First lich experience

Camembert heard of the lich in the City gates so he went to check him out. He found his hiding place and set some traps just case:

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Whenever lich tried to cast a spell Camembert ran out and disrupted him. A magical sword followed so there had to be a waiting game:

Arrows to the rescue:

Hey, I found a nice sword, mumbled Camembert to himself. ;)

Hunt for Faldorn

Druid Grove proved to be very tricky for Camembert. He didn't have any big damaging AoE spells or effects so he had to rely on stealth and divide & conquer tactic:

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] This big pack was attacked by Wagi, Camembert and 2 Improved Kitthix:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/5196/druid20dt.jpg

(I was a little afraid of those Greater Command spells but Camembert already has save vs. spells at 0 (with equipment) so he should be fine)

Kyland Lind and his ambush took a lot of time, running, hiding, disrupting and backstabbing:

Hey, Spore Colonies can be backstabbed too :D :
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/9195/druid41jq.jpg

Camembert bought 10 Oils of Speed and showed his gratitude:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/1815/druid56ip.jpg

The last group before the temple and the same divide & conquer tactic:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/5203/druid63ts.jpg

Camembert had no other option but to ask Cernd to fight for the Grove:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/1452/druid75eo.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Only one cheese used here (while still playing on Insane!) and that is Rod of Resurrection used as a heal spell! Whenever Camembert felt that Cernd was in trouble he "sent him his blessings" and Cernd was fully healed. Still it took 7 charges of the rod for Cernd to win this fight. Yeah, fight of Parmesan against Gorgonzola! ;)

Then some smaller quests in Trademeet:

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] And look what Camembert du Brie got for Ph.D. in cheese:

The Cult

Something is fishy about this cult so Camembert went into the sewers and beyond to see what is happening. He reached one priest Gaal and another Sassar and they had different stories of what is going on. Well, let's see, here's one Ghast less anyway:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/337/cult10eo.jpg

Wow, beholder ambush!
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/8883/cult29oo.jpg

Hey, one of the small ones followed me:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/2425/cult35qv.jpg

The legendary (and cheesy [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] ) Shield of Balduran reflects their rays:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/9249/cult48ca.jpg

Some shadows had to be sent to their undead heaven before Camembert reached the strange building and was asked to help again. He had to go right into the pit of the Unseeing eye. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Sending fire elemental first which cannot be hit by ghasts and mummies while Camembert snipes them with Upgraded Azuredge:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/6831/cult51mo.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Wagi casted Prot. from Magic on Camembert who is about to fight the army of undead with a lich as their leader:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/237/cult62mh.jpg

Yihaaa, Sunray to you undead bastards:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/5629/cult77ui.jpg

Uhh, Camembert looks for a little less crowded spot:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/3452/cult84xa.jpg

The lich manages to teleport him back but at the same time dispels his own protections and just before he recasts his PFMW Camembert takes the chance and hits the lich right into the eye (hmm, or only the socket :D ):
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/1061/cult94et.jpg

Finishing off the last undead:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/8568/cult106so.jpg

That Prot. from Magic is still very handy when fighting beholders:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/8629/cult116bz.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Wohoo, Camembert can use wand of Cloudkill:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/6472/cult120fu.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Preparing a warm welcome for the Unseeing eye:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/3676/cult139vh.jpg

Bye, bye:
http://img141.exs.cx/img141/2641/cult149op.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] And finishing what he started:

The path to the PRECIOUS ONE

Camembert was anxious to try his new traping skill, the Spike Trap. This trap ranks very high among cheesemeisters and he wanted to know why. So he decided to challenge the evil thing that resided in the tomb that he saw while doing the Unseeing eye quest. He set a Spike trap and a couple of normal traps just in case and lured the evil lich out. Kabooom [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] :
http://img75.exs.cx/img75/363/kangaxx19mm.jpg

Whew, this really rocks! Camembert did a small enquiry and located another lich. Aha, here you aree:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/2008/kangaxx29zg.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Hey, let's try this trap again:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/48/kangaxx39du.jpg

Booom, and the Elemental lich was gone:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/6238/kangaxx43nj.jpg

The parts of the body that he got from the liches were parts of the puzzle. And the solution started at this door:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/3747/kangaxx56bo.jpg

Aaaahh, what a reception:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/7167/kangaxx60zy.jpg

One of the liches followed and used his fancy teleport thingy:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/7571/kangaxx73zd.jpg

But nothing that Azuredge couldn't handle. Ther fighter seemed very dangerous so Camembert applied his favorite tactic:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/4928/kangaxx82jj.jpg

The remaining lich also met the deadly axe:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/3681/kangaxx95zy.jpg

Wow, where did you come from? Speedy Gonzales the dwarf:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/8007/kangaxx101pj.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] The super cheesy Time trap enables Camembert to do his job without worrying about his health:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/2672/kangaxx111ts.jpg

But the Dwarf is sturdy and needs much more than that tickling:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/3056/kangaxx120dv.jpg
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/4374/kangaxx137xv.jpg

[img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Wagi protected Camembert and himself with Prot. from Magic and they both sincerely hoped that this would be sufficient against the horrible Kangaxx:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/8140/kangaxx149cu.jpg

Kangaxx is a master caster:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/6303/kangaxx152fy.jpg

But even the best can have their bad moments :D :
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/9549/kangaxx160th.jpg

Oh my god, what have we done, Wagi? Now he is really pissed:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/4456/kangaxx175ps.jpg

The deadly imprisonment was stopped to the relief of Camembert:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/7323/kangaxx181hg.jpg

Camembert patiently waited for the right timing and hit the bloody skull with his holy weapon.
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/9545/kangaxx199cg.jpg

YES, the legendary ring was in the hands of the cheesemaister!!!

Leslie 12-20-2004 04:36 AM

And a cloak...

While Camembert was still under the protection of the sphere he remembered that a nasty shelich also resides in the docks. Surely this sphere will help detroy that b..ch too. Aha, here she is:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/3825/shelich12sj.jpg

Yes, bad things could happen. (Dragon fear IGNORES magic resistance and also the sphere so Camembert gulped one Potion of Clarity before entering. Remember that! ;) ):
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/4672/shelich21vl.jpg

This fight was actually much more intense than it looks. Shelich casted Simulacrum and also Project Image and they were throwing everything they got at Camembert. And he skillfully avoided the undead followers in that same room. That shooting Skeleton was annyoing like hell. Those arrows were not deflected by Shield of reflection (they may be magical or something) so Camembert used Hardiness + Belt of Ine. Barr. to withstand the barrage while attacking the lich:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/3559/shelich37rf.jpg

Finally the room was cleared and a magical cloak, a very useful ring a super high level scroll were in Camembert's possession:
http://img74.exs.cx/img74/8260/shelich45zd.jpg

Here is our proud hero:

[img]smile.gif[/img] fighter/thieves are great

still a character i want to play through as a solo although i abandoned my FMT . . .

i'm enjoying the words and pictures

TheGodThatFailed 12-20-2004 12:20 PM

NICE, Leslie. Looks like a realy great game, but you'll hang yourself if you die :D

Leslie 12-20-2004 04:06 PM

@JrKASperov: Yeah, I forgot about "normal" Valygar's armor which I can use now with UAI. My plan is to use Upgraded Valygar's armor which is really great. Combine that with Belt of Inertial Barrier and you have 100% resistance to magic damage. I can laugh at ADHW! :D

@TheGodThatFailed: Now with UAI, Spike traps and Hardiness there is a very good chance to at least get to Jonny boy. I have already raised my focus when I play. (if that is possible at all [img]smile.gif[/img] )
