Chapter 1: Gregor Wolfsheim's party (for Odin Magnus, Sir Byronas, Lucre and Regin) - Page 4

Dundee Slaytern · 11-24-2001, 07:55 AM

Odin Magnus was pleased. He had managed to secure some help in his mission. Well, at least he hoped that they would turn out to be helpful. Oh well, nobody said that it would be without risk, and besides, he was getting pressed for time, results and closure on his mission. Thus Odin decided to gamble on the shorty duo and turned to face Galen,

"Forgive them Galen, they are my new apprentices and they tend to be a boisterous lot. I am sure they were just being friendly, you know how rough Dwarves and Halflings can be when they are in a celebrating mood."

Odin smiled slightly and gave Galen a deep understanding look,

"If you want compensation, I will be glad to discuss it with your commander. After all, we do not want any of us to be unhappy do we?"

Odin knew he was taking a risk. What would people say if rumours start circulating that he was harbouring criminals? The mission was important though, well important to his master at least, and that was all that matters at the moment so Odin just continued to smile.

[OOC]By consultation, is Odin Magnus seeing Lord Gregor Wolfsheim for help or to report to him what is going on in the Capitol Prison?[/OOC]

Sir Byronas · 11-28-2001, 09:26 AM

OOC:Bump

Lucre · 11-28-2001, 12:31 PM

Galen walked away bright red muttering to himself. All went quiet as the big doors at the end of the main hall slammed open and 2 guards in armour walked out following them was Gregor Wolfsheim the man holding this party.

OOC> when does the 4 of the characters join the main plot?

Suddenly, the revelry is interrupted by the sound of breaking glass
as a small army of armed, armored, and masked men charge into the room through the windows and door to outside!

The guards were quickly overhelmed by a dozen attackers before they could intercept. The attackers then made their way.

Several of them shove their way through the crowd and exit the room via the other doors, and a few others take up positions throughout in the room. The others stand by the doors to the garden as a tall, black masked man enters the room and looks about. The crowd mills about in confusion for a moment, and then the man raises his arms and yells, "Silence!" with power that could only be produced by magical enhancement. A hush falls over the room.

The man spoke: "I am your condamnation! Be sure that your fates are doomed and sealed at this moment. For Gregor Wolfsheim's treachery against the Nightstalkers, you all shall suffer! Let this day be remembered!"

Sir ReGiN · 11-30-2001, 10:16 AM

As soon as he heard the men breaking through the windows and doors, he jumped under a table..
He saw a young man standing next to him, and pulled him under the table too..
*Keep out of the way!*
He heard the leader talk about Gregor Wolfsheim, but nothing more..
He saw Lucre standing at the tables were the mage and Sir Byronas were..
He counted the enemies, fingered his beloved axe and started crawling towards the wall...

OOC>>>Doesn't Lucre's post and your post, 250, collide?

250, do you want to decide the actions of the "NPC's", or can anyone write what they like?

Cloudbringer · 11-30-2001, 12:51 PM

A lady in blue appears to Lord Byronas and hands him a ring of protection +2. "tis the least I can do for one who shares a name with the Storm Queen of Ironworks", she says with a smile and vanishes from the thread.

Cloudy, aka Storm, aka StormCloud, aka ...too many to post!

PS, HI ALL, you have a great game going! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sir Byronas · 11-30-2001, 02:36 PM

Byronas sees the masked man. He pulls out his long sword sword and his old shield. "At least I have these!" Then suddenly a woman appears and gives Byronas a Ring of Protection +2. "Thank you my lady" he says. He saw ReGiN preparing to attack.He doesn't understand why so innocent people have to die because of a fool man. Byronas whispered to his dog "Prepare for battle Hercules". Then he says to the masked man "Sorry for the disturb but you have to leave or I will force to stop you!"

Legolas · 11-30-2001, 04:44 PM

OOC: LOL, Byronas, you are certainly brave [img]smile.gif[/img]
But don't tempt fate (or 250 for that matter) too much. Dozens of armed men holding innocent people hostage and your character tells the leader it would be wise of him/her to leave

No offence, of course, as your character does what he thinks he must. I'm sure Byronas the paladin will see his actions as appropriate.

Dundee, you're doing fine as far as I can judge, providing you can live up your promises or you're an evil aligned mage

And as to the colliding posts, you could assume the shadowy figures threw everyone back into the room as they entered.

And finding the main quest? that is up to you all. Though it is in 250's hands right now, you will also have to keep the story moving.

If we assume the leader is impressed by Byronas' behaviour and leaves, for example, you will be facing a room full of shocked people, and you'll likely be as shocked as the others. Say that you take the women with you and go outside. Hear out the other characters, pick up any trail you come across. Or simply sit, chat and wait for adventure to find you.

You can influence the speed of the game yourself. 250 is the DM, but that does not eman he makes every desicion in this case. You can make up rooms and people, converse with them and so on. The only nono is deciding actions for the other players. The only thing you should be careful with is having an NPC give you a lot of specific information.

Trivial things are up to you, major things too. 250 will give you the information you need, but you have to do the thinking and move your character around.

Okay, I'll stop advising (for now [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] ) and let you continue. The word is to whoever takes it

OOC: pretend Gregor Wolfsheim is not here

"Kill him" the masked man spilled out the words.

Three armed men drew near the battle-ready paladin immediately. They boxed him in a semi circle. They thrashed their swords in coordinated unision, and forced the paladin to back step until he was cornored against the table where the dwarf was hidden.

In the ball room, the nobles and merchant lords are grouped together, under several armed men's control.

"Kill the mage too" The masked leader issued the order. Another two armed men approach the mage Odin. A clicking sound tickled following by a flying bolt aimed towards the mage. Odin darted quickly behind the tall wooden chair.

Now the party is trapped in the Parlor's room. Apparently, there are five armed men. The masked leader guards the exist to the main hall. There is another door open northwards to the kitchen.

[OOC]
I am assuming the Silence is temporary, since everybody can still talk. However, may I know what level is my Mage character? I will be just sticking to level 1 and 2 spells for this post, but it would help if I know my actual level.
Oh, and I like to think of Odin Magnus as Chaotic Good. He will not hurt innocent people, but he does like to use unorthodox methods sometimes.
[/OOC]

Odin Magnus gritted his teeth as he heard and felt the bolt hit the chair, things were not going well and these men were now trying to kill him. He had to think fast! He pondered wildly hurling spells blindly over the chair, but that might end up hurting innocent people. He knew that there were two men at least, if he hit one of them, there was a good chance that the other would hit him too.

Odin closed his eyes and took a deep breath. It only took a while, and finally he smiled. It was risky, but it looked to be his best chance. His lips moved quickly as he muttered an incantation. With finality, he casted the spell Glitterdust from behind the chair, aiming at a spot on the floor near where he last spotted the two men, hoping that the area effect would hit the them.
