Session Four - The Tower
[2023/12/20 16:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Alicia Frakture was invited to the conversation.
[2023/12/20 16:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: MidnightMinion Cyberstar was invited to the conversation.
[2023/12/20 16:14] Sonja Bikergrrl: so... while I crack open NCs and notes...
[2023/12/20 16:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: Grrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeetings Adventurers, other players get coherent story lines.... you get... whatever the frick this is!
[2023/12/20 16:16] Sonja Bikergrrl: who remembers where we got to?
[2023/12/20 16:16] Alicia Frakture: wait wait wait. Storylines are supposed to be coherent?!
[2023/12/20 16:16] Sonja Bikergrrl: there's a popular opinion to that effect
[2023/12/20 16:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: as I recall you arrived at a mausoleum in a graveyard, with a wizened figure wanting divine help... which is what you are
[2023/12/20 16:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now what?
[2023/12/20 16:20] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: if the story is incoherent, we should put it into a lasing chamber to straighten it out
[2023/12/20 16:21] Alicia Frakture: Yes we are here to help with your divine assistance request
[2023/12/20 16:21] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "Hello? We were told to come here, thought someone had locked themself inside a coffin or something." Debben emits, inspecting the person who has appeared for clues to their threat and pity ratings.
[2023/12/20 16:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: Creature: "Well, good... you'll have to do! That twerp will be back soon."
[2023/12/20 16:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: Other than a wizened figure in rags in a dark mausoleum... you don't see a great deal else about him
[2023/12/20 16:24] Alicia Frakture: What twerp? *She looks at Dahlia and Katana."You two okay with this?"
[2023/12/20 16:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: Katana: to Leesha: "You realize this is one of the undead?"
[2023/12/20 16:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: The figure shakes it's head. "The twerp in the plate mail armour who... Oh. That's him, there." *points behind you*
[2023/12/20 16:25] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "I'm rarely ok with anything," Debben waves leesha off, "But Elder in Rags, if you want help it's easier to read us into the actual situation." She blinks, glancing to Katana, then studying the old guy again. How come -she- didn't notice he was undead?
[2023/12/20 16:26] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me she looked to Leesha and Debben to see how they felt from their expressions then not sure of what to say yet , quietly thought on it all
[2023/12/20 16:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: Because in shadow, hard to make out details
[2023/12/20 16:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: Behind you: "Ho! Strangers! That is not a good place to tarry."
[2023/12/20 16:27] Alicia Frakture: Leesha sighed."I had a feeling about that Katana, from them trying to dodge sunlight."She looks behind Katana.."And who might you be to be warning us and using words like tarry?"
[2023/12/20 16:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: It is indeed a figure in plate mail that you see. They bow politely. "Kirdal Direshield, at your service, m'lady."
[2023/12/20 16:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead figure: "He's on a quest to rid the world of evil undead abominations or something. Damn religious fanatic."
[2023/12/20 16:29] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal: "Why, I shall smite you down!"
[2023/12/20 16:29] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "Hypothetically, what about non-evil undead?" Debben inquires, mostly to see how much of a rise this generates.
[2023/12/20 16:30] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me "Yes not all undead are evil or even destructive"
[2023/12/20 16:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal: "Art thou mocking me?"
[2023/12/20 16:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal looks around, spots Dahlia. "What... surely the fey aren't on the side of undead monsters?"
[2023/12/20 16:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead creature: "See what I have to put up with?"
[2023/12/20 16:31] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: (( question ))
[2023/12/20 16:31] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: (( When you say 'twerp' is this guy like, tall and in full plate, or are we talking an adorable 4 and a half foot twink in shiny metal? ))
[2023/12/20 16:31] Alicia Frakture: No just showing you the world isn't black and white. there are shades of grey. She looks at the undead creature.
[2023/12/20 16:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: (Human, muscular, fair hair, blue eyes...)
[2023/12/20 16:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal: "What is this.... foul magic?? Undead aren't alive, but an evil mockery of life."
[2023/12/20 16:33] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me "Oh don't get me started tin man , Fey are generalized far too often. Were on the side of whatever each individual chooses. I'm not a pixie that likes undead much but even I know not all undead are evil or even bad and there are far more evil misguided , big people species stomping all over this planet, plane and other places too!", she glared back at him and didn't look too happy with the armored being
[2023/12/20 16:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal splutters in sheer indignation.
[2023/12/20 16:34] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "So what did this old guy in rags actually do that's evil?"
[2023/12/20 16:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal: "He is one of the undead. I am on a quest to rid the world of evil undead abominations."
[2023/12/20 16:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead: "I told you so."
[2023/12/20 16:36] Alicia Frakture: Leesha nods curious."So all he did was exist?" She shakes her head."You're some kind of religious nut aren't you."
[2023/12/20 16:36] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "That's what he is. I've heard guys just like you saying the same damn things about dwarves. What makes you different?"
[2023/12/20 16:36] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me grumbles with her arms crossed, fluttering her wings surrounding her self in a cloud of glittery pixie dust as she listened
[2023/12/20 16:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal: "Now hold! Undead spirits should be sent to the Afterlife, as the gods have decreed."
[2023/12/20 16:39] Alicia Frakture: Nothing wrong with religion but some people take it too far, like now. You know humans have said the same thing about Orcs and half Orcs like myself. Some claim the gods have decreed that. So until he does something evil leave him alone." She doesn't even look back."You don't intend any evil, right?"
[2023/12/20 16:39] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me she stood up flew to his armored head and booped his nose with her flinger getting glitter everywhere, giving him the eye at the same time..."So exactly what gods are you talking about , cant lump them all in that, sure some want all the undead or other living species too or even people they just dont like dead...who do you work for anyway?"
[2023/12/20 16:39] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: Debben leans against the cleanest wall on offer. "Really now? Which gods? My gods don't have a whole lot to say on the matter. I mean, other the God of Tombs and Screams, but they're one you usually appease rather than take advice from."
[2023/12/20 16:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead: "Pfft. Been here for a few hundred years, kids come by, I tell 'em to keep off the graves. They ask for a story, I tell them not to join the army, they go become farmers instead and live long lives."
[2023/12/20 16:41] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal growls and backs away, glaring at Dahlia. "Why you... and you... you.. orc... dwarf... I'm telling you, undead aren't natural!"
[2023/12/20 16:43] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "And a shell of polished steel is?"
[2023/12/20 16:43] Alicia Frakture: HALF Orc thank you.
[2023/12/20 16:44] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal: "Aye, a gift from the gods of the forge, as you should well know, dwarf!"
[2023/12/20 16:44] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "Ack, he's got me there," she grins. "Still fun to debate the matter."
[2023/12/20 16:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal: "Debate all you will, my quest is the eradication of all evil undead abominations."
[2023/12/20 16:45] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me in full tinkerbell style flitted around his head staying out of his reach, "Oh so your the judge of natural and unnatural are you ? Why you silly little armored man! So you want to hunt undead without knowing a thing about them. That sounds pretty Evil to me , a good aligned follower of a good aligned deity would take the time to check things out."
[2023/12/20 16:45] Alicia Frakture: Leesha sighed and looked at Katana."Keep an eye on the one in the crypt. As she approaches Kirdal."What will it take for you to just generally fuck off and leave this one alone unless her does something evil. Or do you get known the world over as a speciesist."
[2023/12/20 16:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal backs away, glaring at Dahlia, and at Leesha, opening and closing his mouth a few times. Finally he growls and stomps back a few paces. "Today you have the advantage of numbers, but I'll have you know Might does not make Right! And today, you have made yourself an enemy! I shall say good day to you now." He stamps away, clearly in a furious temper.
[2023/12/20 16:49] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "Get in line, Kirdal. See you around sometime."
[2023/12/20 16:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: Kirdal growls some reply over his shoulder as he goes.
[2023/12/20 16:49] Alicia Frakture: Hold it."This isn't a numbers thing."We are trying to appeal to your better nature, so I as an individual don't have to make you look bad to others and if you push it look bad to your gods." She turns and looks into the mausoleum."Keep the doors locked, and if I hear you go into evil forget him, I'm coming back for you."
[2023/12/20 16:50] Alicia Frakture: I wont speak for my friends they have their own minds and wills."
[2023/12/20 16:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead: "Not the best outcome, he's still pretty nuts and now you bent him out of shape, but... I think he'll leave me alone for a while."
[2023/12/20 16:51] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "You're right, I should find him at town and buy him a drink. That'll put him off balance."
[2023/12/20 16:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: Katana: "If he drinks."
[2023/12/20 16:53] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me "If he is too much trouble i will just stuff a wasps nest into that armor of his with him in it and see how he likes it then being mean to people"
[2023/12/20 16:55] Sonja Bikergrrl: Katana: "It would seem we are done here."
[2023/12/20 16:55] Alicia Frakture: Leesha nods and goes to the mausoleum and closes the door
[2023/12/20 16:55] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "So, old guy, how'd you end up here?"
[2023/12/20 16:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead: "Well, I was a footman in some long ago war. Got myself killed fighting an army of some greenskins. Thought I'd be in Elyssium, but woke up in a stone coffin."
[2023/12/20 16:57] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "So a naturally occuring undead? Or whatever necromancer was working on you got shanked before he could finish up."
[2023/12/20 16:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead: "Don't rightly know... got no urge to do anything or go anywhere. Guess it's just one of them things."
[2023/12/20 16:59] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "What'd you say your name was?"
[2023/12/20 16:59] Sonja Bikergrrl: Undead: "I didn't, you didn't ask. Dukvur Steelbrook."
[2023/12/20 17:00] Alicia Frakture: Leesha is just watching this and keeping an eye on the departing knight just in case he goes for a mad dash back for trouble
[2023/12/20 17:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nope, he's gone, in quite the huff.
[2023/12/20 17:02] ɗίηα ωíƖɗę ღ (kitten.venus): /me "He just ran off after his little temper flared....but he was fun...", she giggled and flew around
[2023/12/20 17:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: Back to shrine?
[2023/12/20 17:03] MidnightMinion Cyberstar: "Well, if we see each other again, mr Steelbrook, good luck in your travels."
[2023/12/20 17:04] Alicia Frakture: Leesha nods."Yeah, let's head back."
[2023/12/20 17:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: Dukvur: "Oh, I don't travel..."
[2023/12/20 17:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: Back to the shrine! It's an uneventful journey again, and the three metal interlocked gears are waiting.
[2023/12/20 17:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: Spinning gears: "What have you learned, child, about applying Order?"
[2023/12/20 17:07] Alicia Frakture: Leesha thinks hard about it.
[2023/12/20 17:08] Alicia Frakture: It is difficult to apply order. What is order for one is chaos for another
[2023/12/20 17:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: Spinning gears: "You have learnt well, child, you were always a good pupil."
[2023/12/20 17:10] Alicia Frakture: Leesha smiles hearing that.
[2023/12/20 17:10] Sonja Bikergrrl: Spinning gears: "Is anything troubling you, child?"
[2023/12/20 17:12] Alicia Frakture: Shakes her head, and sighs."Honestly this is all a lot to take in."
[2023/12/20 17:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: Spinning gears: "Speak now if anything troubles you. Order is best created with a clear mind."
[2023/12/20 17:16] Alicia Frakture: Leesha scoffs at this."No it isn't. that knight had a clear mind and his order was disrupted. I have a clear mind and up until recently even with everything that happened I thought there was order. Order is fluid based on the person seeing it.
[2023/12/20 17:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: Spinning gears: "Very well. There must be a mental adjustment, child, and you are charged with meditating on Order at the end of each day. And so the next day you will be granted your power and ability, so that you may go forth to seek peace and harmony by bringing order to the worlds' disorder."
[2023/12/20 17:19] Alicia Frakture: Leesha nods.All right.. wait what power?And what ability?"
[2023/12/20 17:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: The spinning gears vanish suddenly, but not before a shower of golden sparks rain down on Leesha. Exactly what power and ability will be the cliffhanger for tonight, but one thing is immediately obvious - Leeshas' armour is now loose-fitting saffron robes.
[2023/12/20 17:22] Alicia Frakture: Heck of a cliffhanger
[2023/12/20 17:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: Also will be the exact XP awards and who gains a level.
[2023/12/20 17:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: bloody hello was supposed to finish half hour ago
[2023/12/20 17:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me distributes hugs, hair riffles
