SirAlexTheFirst: ~~~~~~~~GO~~~~~~~
coughingpuppy: We're just stepping through the terminal into the church?
SirAlexTheFirst: Yep.
Sarcazmo47: Yay!
Dark Japheth: Which church is it? The one Zao has been to before?
coughingpuppy: Aurelia has just gone through and realized that she is sans Verity.
SirAlexTheFirst: Yep, Zao's been here.
Dark Japheth: Yay!@
Dark Japheth: Once he's through
Dark Japheth: He heads to the fingerpainting area.
Dark Japheth: If he can.
Dark Japheth: And begins fingerpainting.
SirAlexTheFirst: There's some music with phat beats playing, and people with big hair dancing to it, in the main room. Fingerpainting is also open.
coughingpuppy: ((They're actually letting us wander around?))
Dark Japheth: YAY! I'm fingerpainting!
SirAlexTheFirst: (Nonlinear levels? Whoa!)
Sarcazmo47: Once Bandon pops through, he immediately makes sure no one is wandering off.
Sarcazmo47: Like, say, Zao.
Dark Japheth: Oh.
Sarcazmo47: And calls for the head priestess.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia isn't going anywhere. She sinks to the ground near a wall and drops her face into her palm.
SirAlexTheFirst: He's probably a bit late to stop Zao..
Sarcazmo47: "Priestess!
Dark Japheth: *is fingerpainting merrily!*
SirAlexTheFirst: She falls into a sugary pit. "Yes, Brother Bandon? How are you?"
SirAlexTheFirst: Er
SirAlexTheFirst: Appears with a sugary smile
SirAlexTheFirst: Pit o_O
coughingpuppy: ((I was wondering about that...))
SirAlexTheFirst: My mind is on Mario for some reason
Sarcazmo47: "I'm just fine, Sister. All of these people have been acting very naughty and I'm taking them into church custody for the time being."
SirAlexTheFirst: THat was odd. Carry on
Sarcazmo47: "Are there proper internment facilities here?"
SirAlexTheFirst: "Oh, goodness." She looks around, distressed. "Yes, but that's an awful lot of people. What went on?"
Sarcazmo47: "They attacked a building. There were a few near deaths, and I had to raise one of them."
Sarcazmo47: "I'd like to request that I be assigned the rehabilitation for this case, as well, but first I think they should all be processed."
SirAlexTheFirst: (They're destroying our city!)
coughingpuppy: Aurelia seems to regain her poise long enough to look up to the two of them. "I'd request that you release the soldiers. They followed me in and there's no reason for them to be here."
SirAlexTheFirst: The priestess peers down at Aurelia over her glasses. "Well, if they followed you, isn't that a reason for them to be here?"
coughingpuppy: "They were ordered to follow me. Most of them probably know very little about what any of this was about."
Dark Japheth: Zao almost looks like he wants to speak, but says nothing.
Sarcazmo47: Bandon shakes his head. "I'll lead the questioning as soon as we get them all arranged properly, priestess."
SirAlexTheFirst: "Hmm." She looks back at Bandon. "What about your work at the Laboratories?"
Sarcazmo47: He nods. "I believe I can do both, if you'll assign a couple of assistants to the case."
Sarcazmo47: "I'll head back over there this evening."
Dark Japheth: Zao will speak quietly.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia, request ignored, slumps back against the wall again, half-listening to the conversation.
Dark Japheth: His hands are blackened, and he holds out a large pile of ash to the head priestess. "I... am dreadfully sorry to keep doing this to you."
Dark Japheth: "But... this is Arianna of Gelendar. Or was."
Dark Japheth: "...again."
Dark Japheth: "Is there anything that can be done for her?"
AndrewRogue: (... *dies laughing*)
SirAlexTheFirst: Small pile of ash, actually.
Dark Japheth: Small pile of ash.
Dark Japheth: Its mingled with pocket lint.
SirAlexTheFirst: "Again? Oh, dear. Well, thank you, sir. We'll try our best." She holds her hands out and carefully accepts the ash.
Dark Japheth: After which
Dark Japheth: "Thank you."
Dark Japheth: "...Bandon, sir? Is there a place I may wash my hands?"
Sarcazmo47: Bandon looks at him.
Sarcazmo47: And water rains down on his hands and forearms.
Dark Japheth: Zao bows. "Thank you, Bandon-san."
SirAlexTheFirst: "You're welcome." The priestess glances at the water and it evaporates.
Dark Japheth: Yay, wasting spell levels for ME TO HAVE CLEAN HANDS
coughingpuppy: ((They're just 0 level spells.))
SirAlexTheFirst: She then looks around at the group, and speaks loudly. "All right! Please follow me, and please, um, don't do anything bad!"
Sarcazmo47: He looks at the priestess again. "I'm sorry to be so sudden about this, but do you think the church here can handle this? Or will they need to be taken elsewhere for proper facilities?"
SirAlexTheFirst: With a wave at Bandon, she starts leading everyone around the building, assuming they will follow.
Sarcazmo47: Bandon stays to the back.
Dark Japheth: Indeed.
Sarcazmo47: To keep them all in a group.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia gets up and follows along behind.
SirAlexTheFirst: "Okay, so, we'll be putting you all in the guest wing, I think. You'll have to triple up, I'm sorry for the inconvenience. The bathrooms are over there, and there's a cafeteria over on the east side of that hallway."
SirAlexTheFirst: She takes the group to a circular hub of six rooms. "There you go. Please make yourselves comfortable, and ask one of the clergy if you need anything."
Dark Japheth: "...Will you mind updating me as to the nature of how Aria's raising goes?"
Dark Japheth: "She is a friend of mine. Under other circumstances, I would offer to find Hunter Sopko and inform him, but..." He sort of maybe smiles, and shrugs.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia heads into one of the rooms, heals the bullet wound she's still carrying around, and takes a nap.
SirAlexTheFirst: "Of course, sir. Would you like me to try and find Hunter Sopko for you?"
Dark Japheth: "...No, it will be alright. I know where he is. Or was."
Sarcazmo47: Oh!
Sarcazmo47: Bandon is still carrying Lea, and the Cyberninja.
SirAlexTheFirst: Yes. Yes he is.
AndrewRogue: (Yay! New allied NPC!)
AndrewRogue: (<.<)
Sarcazmo47: "This one is also one of the criminals, but this fellow needs some more medical attention and some bedrest."
SirAlexTheFirst: "S-sir? Bandon, right?" the cyberninja speaks hesistantly.
Sarcazmo47: "Yes. Just a moment, friend, and we'll get you fixed up."
AndrewRogue: (Does Bandon have Train as his Support Skill?)
Sarcazmo47: (New allied NPC? HAHAHAAHAHA!)
Dark Japheth: (Why?)
Sarcazmo47: (Allies.)
Sarcazmo47: (That's a good one, Andrew.)
Dark Japheth: (Train only works on monsters. Technically, I suppose it would work on Lea)
Dark Japheth: (But she would need to be knocked into critical)
SirAlexTheFirst: "You're going to make sure they don't dock my pay for this, right?"
SirAlexTheFirst: "And keep up security?"
Sarcazmo47: Bandon blinks.
Sarcazmo47: "For...doing your job? I don't see why they would."
SirAlexTheFirst: "Well, I, uh... didn't do so well... and now I'm off the job and in here..."
Sarcazmo47: "You're wounded, man. Don't worry about it. I'll make sure your job is fine."
Dark Japheth: <On the plus side, if you are fired, I am sure you could find employment in Nagukor.> Zao says, not realizing his using the telepathy.
Dark Japheth: (Its like a reverse detect thoughts!)
SirAlexTheFirst: "Well, all right. Thanks, sir."
Sarcazmo47: Bandon nods, and beckons to one of the other priestesses.
SirAlexTheFirst: She skips over. "Yessir?"
Sarcazmo47: "What's your name, soldier?" this is to the cyberninja.
SirAlexTheFirst: "Ah... call me Goggles, sir."
Sarcazmo47: He nods. "Make sure Goggles is healed and gets some rest, if you would, priestess? There's been some fighting, and he was hit pretty bad.
Sarcazmo47: "
SirAlexTheFirst: "You gots it!" She flashes you a V sign with her fingers, and starts throwing dust on Goggles, who begins to sneeze.
Dark Japheth: (...Did she throw up the horns?)
Sarcazmo47: Yes, that is very confusing.
Dark Japheth: (She's fucking metal, dude, no denying it)
SirAlexTheFirst: No... no she's not.
SirAlexTheFirst: Verity is metal.
Sarcazmo47: Is there dust of healing in the church or something?
SirAlexTheFirst: Apparently so, as Goggles' wounds are healing even though he's sneezing and looking startled.
Sarcazmo47: ...would Bandon, say, know of this?
SirAlexTheFirst: No, not really
SirAlexTheFirst: Though he can probably see it happening and all
SirAlexTheFirst: Spellcraft checks, if he wanst
SirAlexTheFirst: *wants
Sarcazmo47: Sure.
*OnlineHost*: Sarcazmo47 rolled 1 20-sided die: 2
AndrewRogue: (I mock.)
Sarcazmo47: Christ, the dice fucking hate me.
Dark Japheth: I want to check!
*OnlineHost*: Dark Japheth rolled 1 20-sided die: 8
SirAlexTheFirst: "ENDURE, KIRK. THEY MAY HATE YOU, BUT I LOVE YOU."
Sarcazmo47: Alex, I hate you.
Dark Japheth: A little better, 20 or so.
Sarcazmo47: Anyway, he turns the man over to the priestess.
SirAlexTheFirst: Zao prolly recognizes the mass Cure Light Wounds action.
SirAlexTheFirst: Goggles flips back over. "My back's fine, thanks."
Sarcazmo47: ...what?
SirAlexTheFirst: You turned him over.
Sarcazmo47: Alex, I hate you.
Sarcazmo47: You know what I mean.
Dark Japheth: lmfao
SirAlexTheFirst: Yes. Yes I do.
Sarcazmo47: I hope you choke and die.
SirAlexTheFirst: Oddly enough, I already choked once tonight.
Sarcazmo47: GOOD
Sarcazmo47: Anyway.
Dark Japheth: Was it a pretzel? I hear pretzels, in the past two years or so, have been trying to kill republicans.
SirAlexTheFirst: FANTASTIC
SirAlexTheFirst: MOVING ON
SirAlexTheFirst: Bam
SirAlexTheFirst: Okay
SirAlexTheFirst: Enough
Sarcazmo47: Does the cyberninja go away temporarily with the priestess?
SirAlexTheFirst: Yes
Sarcazmo47: GOOD
Sarcazmo47: Bandon goes to the priestess. "Is there a confinement room, for tempermental arrestees?"
Sarcazmo47: He's still carrying Lea.
SirAlexTheFirst: "Well....."
AndrewRogue: (There's a bathroom. <.<)
AndrewRogue: (And it has locks...)
SirAlexTheFirst: (Dang you. Stop forcing me to make stuff up. No, don't stop, but you know)
Sarcazmo47: ...sorry?
SirAlexTheFirst: "I guess we could make one, but isn't that kind of inhumane?"
Sarcazmo47: Bandon looks at her.
Sarcazmo47: "I think the circumstances require it, priestess."
Sarcazmo47: Dip check!
*OnlineHost*: Sarcazmo47 rolled 1 20-sided die: 13
Sarcazmo47: 38.
*OnlineHost*: SirAlexTheFirst rolled 1 20-sided die: 6
SirAlexTheFirst: "But... still... keeping people caged..." She looks unhappy.
Sarcazmo47: I dip successfully.
SirAlexTheFirst: (You're gonna need a double dip to convince her.)
Sarcazmo47: "I don't mean to cage her, priestess. Just make sure she stays at the church until we can be sure she's rehabilitated."
SirAlexTheFirst: (*ducks*)
Sarcazmo47: Double dipping!
*OnlineHost*: Sarcazmo47 rolled 1 20-sided die: 16
Sarcazmo47: 41.
Dark Japheth: (Good god.)
SirAlexTheFirst: "Well, I suppose we can do that easily enough." She nods decisivly. "I'm glad that you were able to get these people in here. Nonviolence is wonderful, isn't it?"
Sarcazmo47: He nods enthusiastically.
SirAlexTheFirst: "Thanks, Bandon. Are you going back to the Laboratories now?"
Sarcazmo47: He shakes his head. "Not just yet. I'm going to try to get a few answers now. If you can pick a few acolytes to help me keep things under control and draw up the paperwork for me as the Rehabilitator for this case,
Sarcazmo47: I'd appreciate it. I'll head back once that's done and come in during the day tomorrow."
SirAlexTheFirst: "Sure thing!" And she does so.
Sarcazmo47: And Bandon....heads to the room where Aurelia and Zao are.
Sarcazmo47: He knocks before he goes in.
Dark Japheth: Zao opens the door about a second after you knock.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia is asleep.
Dark Japheth: And is already casting Detect thoughts, silently, so as not to wake her up.
Dark Japheth: <Welcome, bandon. The one named Aurelia is sleeping now.>
Dark Japheth: <I would like to be quiet, so as not to disturb her slumber. She has lost much today, and regained hope again.>
Sarcazmo47: Bandon shakes his head. "I need to speak with the both of you."
Dark Japheth: <...very well. Wake her, then. Or would you prefer I do?>
Sarcazmo47: Bandon steps over to her.
Sarcazmo47: And gently shakes her.
Sarcazmo47: "Missus Liadon?"
coughingpuppy: Aurelia blinks awake and gives him an "I hate you and I hope you die" sort of look. "Yes?"
Sarcazmo47: "I need to talk to you about what happened."
coughingpuppy: She sighs and sits up, running a hand through her hair to straighten it. "Very well. What do you need to know?"
Dark Japheth: Zao is seated, quietly. This isn't his task. So he is quiet.
Sarcazmo47: "Everything. Where did you come from? What were you doing? Who sent you? Why?"
SirAlexTheFirst: (My name is Joe. I work, in a button factory. I got a wife, and a family. One day, the boss comes up to me and says "Hey Joe! Are you busy?" I says "No" he says "Do this, with your right hand.")
Dark Japheth: (holy fuck, I haven't heard that song since forever)
coughingpuppy: "Ah. I don't know how much I can tell you. Verity was taken from our house and I wanted to get him out. It was my sole reason for going in. The Yarovan was willing to help me, so I was with them."
Sarcazmo47: Bandon casts a spell!
Sarcazmo47: With the needing of the will saves.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia doesn't resist it.
*OnlineHost*: Dark Japheth rolled 1 20-sided die: 5
Sarcazmo47: Zone of Truth.
Sarcazmo47: No lying for you!
coughingpuppy: None of it's a lie.
Sarcazmo47: "Yarovan sent you? The trading company?"
coughingpuppy: "Yes. Hunter, Aria, and Zao-Lot accompanied me. So did Hunter's friend...the loud one, I can't remember her name. And some soldiers from the Yarovan."
Dark Japheth: Zao says nothing, merely sitting, quietly, watching whats happening.
Sarcazmo47: "Why did the Labs take him prisoner?"
coughingpuppy: "Verity? I don't know. I tried to find out, but no one would tell me anything...assuming they knew enough about it to tell me something. Leonard - the head of the Yarovan - said that he and I represented a
coughingpuppy: threat to Whittyre."
Sarcazmo47: "How did the Yarovan get involved?"
coughingpuppy: "Hunter brought me to them."
Sarcazmo47: "And they offered to help you...try to break him out?"
coughingpuppy: "Yes. They preferred both myself and him out of Whittyre's hands."
Sarcazmo47: "And that...explosion?"
coughingpuppy: At that, Aurelia looks a little confused. "I...don't know. They sent me in with what they claimed was a teleportation device, and it exploded when I activated it. Obviously, it wasn't a teleportation device."
coughingpuppy: "To the best of my knowledge, no one in the group knew about it, or they would have said something. Aria jumped on it to keep it from killing everyone else."
Dark Japheth: "I tried to find out what it was, but Hunter proved to have more.. sufficient... mental blockades than I had anticipated."
Dark Japheth: "So did leonard, for that matter."
Sarcazmo47: Bandon nods.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia looks sharply at Zao. "Are you saying Hunter knew?"
Dark Japheth: "He smirked. Tried not to. I believe he knew something. I do not know if it was the bomb he knew about."
Dark Japheth: "Or perhaps the mysterious plan B."
Dark Japheth: "And I tried to find out if he knew, but."
Sarcazmo47: "And the others? They're all employees of Yarovan?"
Sarcazmo47: He starts WRITING THINGS DOWN
coughingpuppy: "Yes, they are. They were only doing their jobs and should be returned to the Yarovan."
coughingpuppy: Aurelia, when she notices him writing things down, frowns for a moment. "Before I speak to you any further, I have to ask you whether you plan on returning us to the Labs."
Sarcazmo47: Bandon is slow to respond. "I'm not sure. I don't think they have any right to imprison either you or your husband, but I don't have all the facts of the case. You'll stay here until the church decides what to do with you,
Sarcazmo47: and as your Rehabilitator, that will largely fall to me."
coughingpuppy: She nods slowly. For now, she's just going to have to accept that, and is trying to keep her hopes up that Bandon might find a way to get Verity out. "What about everyone the Labs are holding?"
Sarcazmo47: "Everyone? There are more?"
coughingpuppy: "Verity, Karn, your friend Jerriford...and Hunter, too." Aurelia is clearly reluctant to still try to get Hunter out after the recent revelation, but she does it anyway.
Sarcazmo47: He writes this all down.
Sarcazmo47: "And this Leonard?"
coughingpuppy: "What about him?"
coughingpuppy: "I only spoke with him once."
Sarcazmo47: "Who is he?"
coughingpuppy: "A halfling. He's the head of the Yarovan, apparently."
Dark Japheth: "I think dwarf, actually."
Sarcazmo47: "Mmm. So you attacked the Whittyre labs with the assistance of the Yarovan trading company to try to rescue Verity, whom you felt was wrongfully imprisoned."
coughingpuppy: Aurelia looks straight at him. "I didn't intend for it to be an attack. The man who died attacked me first. If I had gone in alone I would have been captured or killed very quickly."
coughingpuppy: "Before you ask - yes, we did try talking to them first. Several times."
Sarcazmo47: "No one died except for Aria."
Dark Japheth: "There was no success."
Sarcazmo47: This comes out rather sharply.
Dark Japheth: "She saved us all."
Dark Japheth: Zao might be crying. A little. No, screw it, there is a tear.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia shakes her head. "I would have done what I could have to prevent it, if there had been time."
Dark Japheth: "As would I. If any of us had known..."
Sarcazmo47: He continues to write for a bit. "Allright. Now, mister Lot. Are you an employe of Yarovan?"
Dark Japheth: "I have not been in the past. If this mission qualifies me as an employee, then yes, I currently am. If that is indeed the case, though, I am resigning once I get to speak with someone there."
Sarcazmo47: "I see. Why was it you were on this mission?)
Sarcazmo47: *"
Dark Japheth: "...As you know, I found Arianna's body. And I brought it here to be ressurrected."
Dark Japheth: "I tried to find hunter, and tell him. And I found Aria, alive."
Dark Japheth: "They offered me shelter, food, and hospitality, and friendship."
Dark Japheth: "I.. felt like it was my destiny to help them. They, especially Arianna, seemed to have such pure and noble goals, for no beings good but themselves."
Dark Japheth: "So I offered to give what little I had to assist them all."
Dark Japheth: "I even tried to speak with one of the delegates and resolve this without bloodshed."
Dark Japheth: *council members, not delegates
Dark Japheth: "But I could not succeed." He sighs. "That is why I was on this mission."
Sarcazmo47: Bandon nods. "Sympathizer."
Sarcazmo47: He writes it down.
Sarcazmo47: "Allright. You folks just stay here for now, and we'll see what happens."
Sarcazmo47: He nods to them and heads back out.
Dark Japheth: "Wait."
coughingpuppy: Aurelia frowns at Bandon. She's not sure she likes where this is going.
Sarcazmo47: "Yes?"
Dark Japheth: "Bandon-san? Do you have an instrument, of some sort? That I can play? Or books, perhaps, to pass the time?"
Sarcazmo47: "You have free reign of the temple, sir."
coughingpuppy: "Both of us?"
Dark Japheth: He nods. "Thank you very much."
Sarcazmo47: He nods.
Dark Japheth: Bandon is added to the list of people Zao likes!
Dark Japheth: HE TREATS PRISONERS WITH HONOR.
Dark Japheth: He will then head out and go back to where he found the books.
Dark Japheth: And read.
Dark Japheth: Yay.
coughingpuppy: Aurelia goes back to sleep.
SirAlexTheFirst: And Bandon?
Sarcazmo47: And Bandon goes out to make sure the papers are all in order, that Lea is confined, that Goggles is taken care of, and that some acolytes are busy taking statements from everyone involved.
Sarcazmo47: He will ALSO go to a terminal.
Sarcazmo47: And call on the Yarovan office here.
Dark Japheth: Actually.
Dark Japheth: Before Bandon leaves the temple
Dark Japheth: Zao will go to him. "Bandon-San?"
Sarcazmo47: He's still in the temple.
Sarcazmo47: "Yes?"
Dark Japheth: "Can I help you in any way? To investigate?"
Sarcazmo47: "Ah...that's the church's job, sir. Prisoners do not typically interrogate themselves."
Dark Japheth: "I.. I know. But perhaps I can help, if you ignore typical natures of prisoners."
SirAlexTheFirst: The papers are all in order, Lea is not permitted to leave the temple grounds, Goggles is fine though a bit bewildered, and acolytes are therapizing and taking statements. Just to say.
Sarcazmo47: Great.
Dark Japheth: "I.. I can read minds, if that would help you."
Sarcazmo47: "Can you read mine?"
Dark Japheth: "I have tried, but I cannot. This is when I thought you were a foe. I apologize, Bandon-San."
Dark Japheth: He bows.
Sarcazmo47: He nods. "If you're cleared of charged or found rehabilitated, we'll be glad to have your help, mister Lot."
Sarcazmo47: *charges
Dark Japheth: He nods. "Call me Zao."
Dark Japheth: "Thank you for your hospitality."
Sarcazmo47: He nods.
Sarcazmo47: And...
Sarcazmo47: To the terminal!
Dark Japheth: Zao brushes up on his fairy tales.
Sarcazmo47: Calling on the Yarovan consulate/field office.
SirAlexTheFirst: Terminal!
SirAlexTheFirst: Rawr.
SirAlexTheFirst: It is answered by a man in an awkward looking helmet. "Yarovan Trading Company, how may I help you?"
Sarcazmo47: "Hello. I am Brother Bandon of the Church of Luthien."
coughingpuppy has left the room.
SirAlexTheFirst: "I'm Wilbur, of, um, the Yarovan Trading Company. What's up?"
Sarcazmo47: "Some of your employees have perpetrated a violent act against the Whittyre National labs and are now in the custody o f the church."
Sarcazmo47: "If you'd like to be involved in their rehabilitation, please have your regional representative come down here."
SirAlexTheFirst: He stares at you. "FanTAStic. I'll try and get someone right on that. Maybe they'll send someone this time."
Sarcazmo47: Bandon looks amazed.
Sarcazmo47: "Allright."
Sarcazmo47: "Can I speak with your regional representative?"
SirAlexTheFirst: "Sorry, Brother, but... okay, look. I'm just a security guard, really, and, well, there's nobody else here. It's been like this for the last few days, and I'm honestly wondering what the hell is going on."
Sarcazmo47: "Ah."
Sarcazmo47: "Well, your company has outright raided a government facility."
Sarcazmo47: "I'm sorry you had to hear this from me."
Sarcazmo47: "Do you have a way to contact your main office?"
SirAlexTheFirst: "Not reliably. I could trip the alarm, but that's about it. I dunno how to work any of the stuff over here.... waaaait. You said that some employees are in your custody, right?"
Sarcazmo47: "Yes."
SirAlexTheFirst: "Do they know how to get in touch with the offices? That'd be great. And... I don't suppose you have Leatanna Scarlett or Will Sopko over there, do ya?"
Sarcazmo47: "Leatanna Scarlett has been apprehended on the same charges."
SirAlexTheFirst: "Could you get her on the terminal with me, by any chance? Or is that not allowed?"
Sarcazmo47: "I suppose so."
Sarcazmo47: "Just a moment."
Sarcazmo47: He wil go get Lea!
SirAlexTheFirst: What's the duration on Bestow Curse?
Dark Japheth: FOrever until dismissed.
Sarcazmo47: It's...uh....permanent, I think.
Dark Japheth: Or until Remove Curse is cast.
Sarcazmo47: But he will dismiss it.
Sarcazmo47: After retrieving her.
SirAlexTheFirst: The moment you do, she yells at you "WHERE IS HUNTER, YOU IDIOT?"
Sarcazmo47: He endures this calmly. "I don't know, and right now, there's nothing I can do about it. And there's nothing you can do about it. And shouting is certainly not going to help."
Sarcazmo47: Dip check!
*OnlineHost*: Sarcazmo47 rolled 1 20-sided die: 17
Sarcazmo47: 43.
AndrewRogue: (She gets into bed with you. Now.)
SirAlexTheFirst: (No.)
AndrewRogue: (*shows life and runs*)
SirAlexTheFirst: "So you're getting us all out, but leaving him in there to rot? I can't believe this!"
Sarcazmo47: "No."
Sarcazmo47: "I'll do everything that I reasonably can to try to get him in my custody."
Sarcazmo47: "But right now, that's very little. He didn't surrender to me, he wasn't there, and I can't prove where he is."
Sarcazmo47: "I can try to get him turned over to me, but I can't MAKE them do it."
Sarcazmo47: "And neither can you."
SirAlexTheFirst: Lea flops back on the bed in the room and su//roll -dice 1 -sides lks.
SirAlexTheFirst: *sulks
Dark Japheth: owned by copy paste
SirAlexTheFirst: (Yep)
Sarcazmo47: "Right now, I need to get Yarovan to send someone down here to argue for your release."
Sarcazmo47: "And the branch here in Whittyre is manned by a security guard."
SirAlexTheFirst: (You know, I just realized it's 4:30 AM. Where the heck is my roommate?)
Sarcazmo47: "I'd appreciate your help in getting someone down here, so that there's a side to oppose the Labs, before I run out of excuses."
SirAlexTheFirst: She snorts. "They know. They
SirAlexTheFirst: 're coming."
Sarcazmo47: "Allright."
Sarcazmo47: "I'm the Rehabilitator in this case. So if you need anything, ask for me."
Sarcazmo47: Aaaaaaaaaaand....
SirAlexTheFirst: And?
Sarcazmo47: And SLEEPYTIME
Dark Japheth: But there is no rest for the wicked!
Dark Japheth: For the wicked get coffee!
Sarcazmo47: Shush, Gorth.
Sarcazmo47 has left the room.
AndrewRogue: Yeah. I'm wide awake ;_;
SirAlexTheFirst: Sleep?
SirAlexTheFirst: Awwwww
Dark Japheth: COWARD
SirAlexTheFirst: He should come here and play Doom 3 since Eric has decided to vanish
SirAlexTheFirst: I didn't really want to run game tonight
Dark Japheth: And WHY THE FUCK DOES ZAO KEEP OFFERING TO HELP.
SirAlexTheFirst: You prolly noticed the huge pauses
SirAlexTheFirst: Because Zao is LG.
SirAlexTheFirst: Well, discussion
Dark Japheth: But there are Lawful Good people who never help others!
Dark Japheth: Like Tiyrael!
Dark Japheth: Oh, Bandon officially rocks
SirAlexTheFirst: Tiyreal helps people.
Dark Japheth: Hmm, what else.
SirAlexTheFirst: Occasionally.
Dark Japheth: Zao NEVER STOPS
AndrewRogue: So... there's not a lot to discuss from this session <.<
Dark Japheth: Its creeping me out.
Dark Japheth: Yes there is. There is a lot.
Dark Japheth: For one.
Dark Japheth: Lea.
Dark Japheth: Tee hee.
SirAlexTheFirst: I have no idea what to do with Lea's character now.
AndrewRogue: Clearly there will be a scene between her and Aria at some point that is akin to that Landus/Skoc scene in terms of gay.
AndrewRogue: <.<
SirAlexTheFirst: .
SirAlexTheFirst: .
SirAlexTheFirst: .
SirAlexTheFirst: Um... no.
AndrewRogue: I meant in essence.
SirAlexTheFirst: I'm still ridiculously happy even though life sucks and I didn't want to run game
AndrewRogue: Not lesbian sex.
Dark Japheth: Why does life suck?
SirAlexTheFirst: Well, that already happened, you see
SirAlexTheFirst: Well, on the good side, the Psych prof let me make up the test I missed when sick
AndrewRogue: So now we need the non-sex one.
SirAlexTheFirst: The other side, TV Crit and Research Writing are all of the opinion that a C is good enough for anyone.
SirAlexTheFirst: RW in particular because it's a TA and she hates me in general.
SirAlexTheFirst: Well, la de da, "Professor" Gooding.
SirAlexTheFirst: Also, we're out of money
Dark Japheth: Ow.
SirAlexTheFirst: So I can choose between going back to Texas and working next semester
Dark Japheth: Would you like me to send you some?
SirAlexTheFirst: Or staying here for one more sem but not being in the HC, and THEN going back to Texas and working.
AndrewRogue: I'm always free for loans and all.
SirAlexTheFirst: Hahahaha. Thanks, but....
SirAlexTheFirst: $6000 per semester
SirAlexTheFirst: Somehow I don't think so
AndrewRogue: Well... a loan is a start <.<
Dark Japheth: I can do it. But that would cut into my car fund. So yeah, you can work.
Dark Japheth: If you just need like a few bucks for food, or for a D&D book or something
SirAlexTheFirst: I have loans already
Dark Japheth: I can send you some or something.
SirAlexTheFirst: I have money for food and D&D books, that's not a problem.
SirAlexTheFirst: Well I don't buy D&D books sooo
Dark Japheth: Ok.
SirAlexTheFirst: Food
SirAlexTheFirst: But
Dark Japheth: YOU SHOULD.
Dark Japheth: Get complete Arcana
Dark Japheth: arcane
SirAlexTheFirst: WHY?
Dark Japheth: Revised fatespinner, for one.
SirAlexTheFirst: Kirk, Andy, Luke and 58976247 other people here already have them
Dark Japheth: Its a lot more like your fatespinner.
Dark Japheth: Oh.
SirAlexTheFirst: Plus I have the PDFs
Dark Japheth: Nice
SirAlexTheFirst: Speaking of fatespinner the reason for happiness is a reason for sadness
Dark Japheth: Erm?
AndrewRogue: ...oh?
SirAlexTheFirst: Aria had more interaction with Nellix a couple of nights ago than almost the entirity of NA put together, which was kind of ridiculous but also pretty cool.
Dark Japheth: Don't blame me for that. God knows I tried.
SirAlexTheFirst: At least, I thought it was pretty cool. But I shouldn't even be bringing him in this game much.
Dark Japheth: And no, nobody pushed you and made you question your beliefs. I took everything your character had, I figured I wouldn't attempt to dissect his morality
Dark Japheth: If I did, you'd hate me.
SirAlexTheFirst: You never did... like... anything with him. Ever. Except for the very beginning and very very end of the year long campaign. But that's not bad.
Dark Japheth: No.
Dark Japheth: I did a lot with him.
Dark Japheth: You forget and think I ignored you.
Dark Japheth: But thats your own opinion.
SirAlexTheFirst: Eh. It doesn't matter.
Dark Japheth: I remember thinking for days on ways I could interact with nellix. What about the Staff of the Magi? Or Varro? Or hell, Greel? Everyone talked to YOU. You were the only mage!
Dark Japheth: They debated with you
Dark Japheth: Spoke, had tea
AndrewRogue: Yay! Tea!
AndrewRogue: Nellix should bring tea for Aria <.<
SirAlexTheFirst: She asked to be left alone
AndrewRogue: For a little while.
AndrewRogue: With Nellix's uber SM, he could tell she was done being weak.
AndrewRogue: So she didn't want someone to see her cry.
AndrewRogue: She shall be strong for her friends, and cry for her hurt when they don't have to bear it.
SirAlexTheFirst: With tea.
SirAlexTheFirst: And WITH FISTS!
Dark Japheth: IN BED
AndrewRogue: IN BED!
AndrewRogue: Dammit.
AndrewRogue: Nellix should bring her tea, because she rocks at messing with his morality.
AndrewRogue: <.<
Dark Japheth: Its because you are a girl.
SirAlexTheFirst: You know, every girl Nellix meets becomes pregnant.
SirAlexTheFirst: >_>
Dark Japheth: This is actually true.
Dark Japheth: Its all Nellix's fault.
AndrewRogue: It already occurred though.
Dark Japheth: Did she meet Nellix before she got knocked up?
Dark Japheth: WAIT SHE DID
Dark Japheth: omg
Dark Japheth: Nellix causes pregnancy
SirAlexTheFirst: No.
SirAlexTheFirst: Gorth causes pregnancy.
SirAlexTheFirst: When did pregnancy scare happen?
SirAlexTheFirst: WHEN GORTH REJOINED, OHHH
SirAlexTheFirst: :P
Dark Japheth: Holy shit.
Dark Japheth: This is also a good point.
Dark Japheth: However
AndrewRogue: But Hunter is gone now. So its up to Bandon/Nellix/Zao/Lea to make her pregnant.
Dark Japheth: Hmm
AndrewRogue: *nods*
Dark Japheth: Nellix controls fate!
Dark Japheth: Zao doesn't!
SirAlexTheFirst: ...Nellix? Lea?
SirAlexTheFirst: O_O
Dark Japheth: Zao won't.
Dark Japheth: Well actually
Dark Japheth: hmm
AndrewRogue: Come on. "Every girl he meets gets pregnant?"
AndrewRogue: If that's not a come on...
SirAlexTheFirst: Not by him!
SirAlexTheFirst: And hey
SirAlexTheFirst: Lauren didn't.
SirAlexTheFirst: So there.
Dark Japheth: I'm thinking. How'd you like to be Wife Number 2?
SirAlexTheFirst: You shut up
SirAlexTheFirst: *preempting Gorth's "Yes she did"*
Dark Japheth: She never really did.
Dark Japheth: She had the plague.
AndrewRogue: XD Aria can be second to another woman!
Dark Japheth: Something really cool I was going to extrapolate on and go on with.
SirAlexTheFirst: Oh, yeah, the plague
SirAlexTheFirst: That was pretty cool
Dark Japheth: Basically it just fucked up divinations
SirAlexTheFirst: But
SirAlexTheFirst: You never did
SirAlexTheFirst: Soo
Dark Japheth: No, there were lots of things I didn't do
Dark Japheth: because my PC's were too obse... you know what, I'm going to shut up before I say something I regret.
Dark Japheth: and instead thumb my nose and say Nellix causes babies.
AndrewRogue: Gorth causes more.
AndrewRogue: *points at Cara*
AndrewRogue: <.<;;
Dark Japheth: YOU SAID "I MARRY HER AND RETIRE LANDUS"
Dark Japheth: I SAY "OK, SO YOU LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER."
SirAlexTheFirst: Your PCs were too obscene?
Dark Japheth: YOU- "DO I GET A SON?"
Dark Japheth: Do you want me to finish that statement? It'll likely piss you off and you'll go off on me for being a terrible shitty DM.
AndrewRogue: LOOK!
SirAlexTheFirst: Well, I guess they kind of were
AndrewRogue: A DISTRACTION!
AndrewRogue: *strips*
SirAlexTheFirst: Chrome and Mel.....
AndrewRogue: Perform Check to be a sexy stripper.
*OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 20-sided die: 13
AndrewRogue: I'm okay.
Dark Japheth: Chrome was in charge of that. What did I do before ANY MOMENT of ANYTHING not rated PG (sexually, anyway)? Faded to black.
SirAlexTheFirst: No
SirAlexTheFirst: No you're not
SirAlexTheFirst: And yea
SirAlexTheFirst: Hence
AndrewRogue: ...yes I am.
SirAlexTheFirst: Your PCs were too obscene
AndrewRogue: 13-15 is pretty good.
Dark Japheth: You weren't.
SirAlexTheFirst: Strippers of 13-15 are pretty good?
Dark Japheth: 10 is average
SirAlexTheFirst: I'll be sure and quote you on that.
AndrewRogue: Machika from Immortal Rain.
AndrewRogue: 14.
AndrewRogue: And hot.
AndrewRogue: *bows*
AndrewRogue: <.<
SirAlexTheFirst: Just for that, I should get someone to make an AND pinup calendar.
AndrewRogue: *snickers*
AndrewRogue: Aria would so not be on that.
SirAlexTheFirst: With Marion in a little girl nightie and some HUNTERS as Miss January.
AndrewRogue: WHEE!
SirAlexTheFirst: WHEE is not the socially appropriate response there....
AndrewRogue: ...its not?
Dark Japheth: She's Legal... in Albania, Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Brunei, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Croatia, Ecuador, Estonia,Germany, Guyana, Honduras, Hungary
AndrewRogue: </teasing>
AndrewRogue: GORTH IS NOW MY SLAVE!
AndrewRogue: AndrewRogue: *uses Invite on Gorth*
AndrewRogue: *OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 100-sided die: 86
AndrewRogue: AndrewRogue: HELL YES
AndrewRogue: AndrewRogue: I GOT GORTH!
AndrewRogue: *strips and boots*
Dark Japheth: Iceland, Italy, Korea, Kosovo, Liechtenstein, Malta, Mexico, Montenegro, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Portugal, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Romania
AndrewRogue: ...you know what kinda bothers me?
AndrewRogue: ...Marion is legal in Liechtenstein?
AndrewRogue: *doubletake*
Dark Japheth: Russia, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, Syria, Togo, Vojvodina, Zimbabwe
Dark Japheth: No, thats for your little 14 year old slut kid thing
AndrewRogue: Oh.
Dark Japheth: Oh, and in Iowa if you are sixteen or younger...missouri if you are 17 or younger, south carolina if sixten or younger,
AndrewRogue: Curse me for turning 18 I guess.
Dark Japheth: Yes indeedy.
Dark Japheth: Its only illegal if you get caught.
AndrewRogue: ...
Dark Japheth: Interesting reminder I got today
AndrewRogue: Technically its illegal either way.
Dark Japheth: Chromeus technically joined the Scorpion clan.
AndrewRogue: You just avoid punishment.
AndrewRogue: He did?
Dark Japheth: Yes.
SirAlexTheFirst: Yeah, he did
SirAlexTheFirst: I was wondering if you were going to remember that'
SirAlexTheFirst: And piece it together with the fact that Chrome hasn't been mentioned in AND yet
SirAlexTheFirst: And that Zao needs backstory.
SirAlexTheFirst: >_>
Dark Japheth: Well.
Dark Japheth: To be honest and fair
Dark Japheth: He went off to live alone.
Dark Japheth: And be a painter.
Dark Japheth: And die humbly.
AndrewRogue: And make babies.
AndrewRogue: *nods*
Dark Japheth: Well yeah but he did that before he killed Karnage.
AndrewRogue: What? No extra twins for joking that he likes the number 5?
AndrewRogue: <.<
Dark Japheth: Nope!
Dark Japheth: As far as my game goes
Dark Japheth: he only had Lucia.
Dark Japheth: Ever.
Dark Japheth: There are numerous reasons for this.
AndrewRogue: Vasectomy of the Gods?
Dark Japheth: The reason I figured Landus has six kids is because the mental picture of Caradoc beating the shit out of you each time she gets pregnant amused the HELL out of me.
Dark Japheth: Chrome didn't need other kids. His life was complete. And you know, he lives in a cottage, tending the true Amaryllis, and as a gardener.
Dark Japheth: He didn't want immortal life.
Dark Japheth: So he's dead.
Dark Japheth: Neither did Mel.
Dark Japheth: And she's dead.
AndrewRogue: Good man.
AndrewRogue: *nods*
Dark Japheth: Lucia, who the hell knows
Dark Japheth: But she's probably dead too.
Dark Japheth: Being mostly human.
Dark Japheth: Did she marry? Fuck if I know
Dark Japheth: Anyway
Dark Japheth: I have NO CLUE how to tie Chrome into my own backstory.
AndrewRogue: Clearly you are related.
Dark Japheth: How?
Dark Japheth: I'm a Phoenix.
AndrewRogue: And this is why you belong in the Scorpion.
AndrewRogue: You were a doorstep baby.
AndrewRogue: <.<
Dark Japheth: No. :P
Dark Japheth: I want to be a NORMAL GUY
Dark Japheth: WITH NORMAL PARENTS
AndrewRogue: I second this.
Dark Japheth: who HAPPEN to be overbearing and controlling
Dark Japheth: So he KINDLY and GENTLY left and is otherwise on good terms with them!
AndrewRogue: We have two many freaks and weirdos in this group.
Dark Japheth: Since, you know, he's no longer an Isawa.
SirAlexTheFirst: Well...
SirAlexTheFirst: We don't have that many weirdos..
Dark Japheth: Maybe one of Ryuunosuke's ancestors?
SirAlexTheFirst: Okay, there's Aurelia and Verity
Dark Japheth: We have two, just like she said.
Dark Japheth: :P
Dark Japheth: Oh, and we have the guy in the all female church.
Dark Japheth: And Verity should count as two all by himself
AndrewRogue: Luthien is all girl?
SirAlexTheFirst: It's not all female!
SirAlexTheFirst: Not nearly!
Dark Japheth: When did that change?
Dark Japheth: o.O
SirAlexTheFirst: Luthien likes teh men.
SirAlexTheFirst: Men need love, too.
Dark Japheth: I will repeat something I will probably say a million more times
SirAlexTheFirst: Sometimes, men need love that only another man can give them.
Dark Japheth: I love how you take the only goddess I really remotely respect and turned her into a whore for your game.
SirAlexTheFirst: Wow, that came out wrong.
AndrewRogue: ...
Dark Japheth: And when I say I love, I really am meaning that I hate.
SirAlexTheFirst: Mmmkay...
Dark Japheth: Anyway.
SirAlexTheFirst: 1. I didn't do nothin 'sides take your own backstory. 2. She's not a whore. 3. Look at her temples and clergy and tell me that she isn't respectable and doesn't kick all ass.
AndrewRogue: I think Bandon is unique is the issue <.<
SirAlexTheFirst: 4. RESPECT THE JUDICATOR.
SirAlexTheFirst: Why does everyone always forget she exists. ;_;
AndrewRogue: I don't.
AndrewRogue: She... just never does anything.
Dark Japheth: I do respect her.
Dark Japheth: A lot.
Dark Japheth: But she's bound by way way too many of her own restrictions.
AndrewRogue: Come to think of it...
AndrewRogue: Judy is the only god we haven't done anything with.
AndrewRogue: *deity
SirAlexTheFirst: *gasp* nooo
SirAlexTheFirst: What about....
SirAlexTheFirst: SATAN!!!111 oh noes
Dark Japheth: SHAITAN
Dark Japheth: or Satan
Dark Japheth: depending on mood or blasphemy level
AndrewRogue: The DAoA game covers that.
AndrewRogue: <.<
Dark Japheth: Wait, though. What about the Unsound ones? Not really one, but ten?
Dark Japheth: ...but that doesn't count for THIS AND, does it
SirAlexTheFirst: What ABOUT them?
Dark Japheth: Cuz you know
Dark Japheth: I kicked one of their asses.
AndrewRogue: ...the who?
Dark Japheth: I was like "YOU'VE WOKEN UP THE DEMON IN ME. NOW DIE, MEGAN."
SirAlexTheFirst: Voice and body from the depths, the world it has not gained.
Dark Japheth: "BITCH."
SirAlexTheFirst: So shut up.
SirAlexTheFirst: :P
Dark Japheth: I was like "Yeah MIND FLAYER"
Dark Japheth: "KEEP MAKING MY EARS BLEED AND MY BRAIN HURT"
Dark Japheth: "CUZ I'M JUST GOING TO SCIMITAR YOU!"
Dark Japheth: "AND THEN ANGST!"
SirAlexTheFirst: Angst!
Dark Japheth: Yeah. Andrew, to recap you
SirAlexTheFirst: Poetry!
Dark Japheth: My character used a literal sword made of nothing but angst
SirAlexTheFirst: Emo!
AndrewRogue: ...teh Angst Blade?
Dark Japheth: It dealt 1d8 +1 caster level goth damage.
SirAlexTheFirst: Lace!
AndrewRogue: ...what the hell is Emo anyway?
Dark Japheth: *frost, not goth
Dark Japheth: Emo is... hmm. Boy Sets Fire
SirAlexTheFirst: Makeup!
SirAlexTheFirst: By your powers combined, I am CAPTAIN GOTH!
Dark Japheth: It wouldn't be emo, really
SirAlexTheFirst: I know
SirAlexTheFirst: It needed to be one word, though
Dark Japheth: It would be coffee or cigarettes.
SirAlexTheFirst: Piercings!
Dark Japheth: For Goths are all noncomformists
SirAlexTheFirst: That's it
Dark Japheth: Who all drink coffee
Dark Japheth: and all smoke cigarettes
Dark Japheth: To be unique
Dark Japheth: like everyone else
Dark Japheth: by the way, Alex
Dark Japheth: if you promise not to smite him, if you want, you have a scene with Skocion.
Dark Japheth: The reason I say promise not to smite him is because then I get called the bad DM. :P
AndrewRogue: Heh
AndrewRogue: Dude.
AndrewRogue: I just realized something.
AndrewRogue: Verity can actually have a blog now.
Dark Japheth: ...
SirAlexTheFirst: I thought it was Landus who was retired?
SirAlexTheFirst: .....
SirAlexTheFirst: ............
SirAlexTheFirst: OH LORD, HE CAN
Dark Japheth: ....holy shit
AndrewRogue: And it is Landus who is retired.
SirAlexTheFirst: Speaking of which
AndrewRogue: Until Kirk pursues his plans to DRAG HIM OUT OF IT apparently.
SirAlexTheFirst: I just found out that I DO get university webspace
SirAlexTheFirst: Gotta do something with that sometime
Dark Japheth: I suggest porn
AndrewRogue: Take some log storage space off my back.
Dark Japheth: Make it a pay site.
AndrewRogue: Or porn.
Dark Japheth: Then you don't have to get a job.
AndrewRogue: *considers opening up a humor section on the site*
AndrewRogue: *and making Verity's Blog a feature*
Dark Japheth: Doooo it
Dark Japheth: I wish i remember Verity's blog.
AndrewRogue: I have it saved somewhere prolly.
SirAlexTheFirst: We're not allowed to do that
SirAlexTheFirst: It's only 50 MB
SirAlexTheFirst: And I wouldn't anyways
Dark Japheth: Oh.
Dark Japheth: And if SKocion fucks with Landus after you know, Landus has his life sorted out
Dark Japheth: Your new theme song will be "My Happy Ending" by Avril Lavigne.
AndrewRogue: Seeend it over here <.<
SirAlexTheFirst: So
SirAlexTheFirst: What was all that about Skocion and me? o_O
SirAlexTheFirst: MUSIC!
Dark Japheth: Once its down downloading.
SirAlexTheFirst: Sending music!
SirAlexTheFirst: Ahhh
AndrewRogue: We like to talk to gods.
AndrewRogue: Nellix is a god.
Dark Japheth: Not really that
SirAlexTheFirst: What do you punks want?
Dark Japheth: Here's the thing.
Dark Japheth: Skocion has basically blasphemed every major religion ever to exist.
Dark Japheth: Second of all.
Dark Japheth: He's created a Schism in the church of Shaitan
SirAlexTheFirst: Wow, that's not cool
Dark Japheth: turning it from, basically, a bunch of punks with no way to succeed into... well, whats looking to be a very successful venture.
SirAlexTheFirst: From their standpoint I mena
SirAlexTheFirst: That's NOT cool
Dark Japheth: He's turning Tamerand into an openly Shaitanic country,.
Dark Japheth: I figured Nellix would oppose it.
Dark Japheth: Hence why I'm bringing it up to you
SirAlexTheFirst: How many forces does he have?
AndrewRogue: He has a preacher! <.<
Dark Japheth: How many? Oh, he's just a mortal.
AndrewRogue: *shuts up*
Dark Japheth: only 9 forces.
Dark Japheth: Or are you NOT talking In Nomine?
Dark Japheth: :P
SirAlexTheFirst: How much arete?
Dark Japheth: No clue.
SirAlexTheFirst: Aw.
Dark Japheth: No mage capabilities. He's got Torment 3 and Faith 5 though.
SirAlexTheFirst: If he declares Tamerand openly Shaitanic...
Dark Japheth: No Avatar, either.
SirAlexTheFirst: How much of an army does he have?
SirAlexTheFirst: How much popular support?
Dark Japheth: At the moment
SirAlexTheFirst: And what's the tactical situation?
Dark Japheth: He's doing it subtly.
Dark Japheth: He's replaced the task force and guards of the bazaar with members of teh church
