Game Update #175 in sequence (file #1217)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Admin Notes: Added Captain Lin to header above.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Recap]
From Kell: [Re: Actions]
"*$#!@<=!$$!!" swears Kell as his arm is hit yet again. Really!
This is pissing him off to no end now. That Vong must pay.
Dirty F)(*&^-Ba#$$%^!!
Fighting through the pain in his arm, Kell grabs his second spear,
takes aim, and hurls it at the cursed Vong with all his might,
hoping to impale the mother-$#@&! in the face with that throw.
[If there is no clear shot Kell won't do that. Hitting friends
is not a good idea.] [Those dang caravaners and guards,
corrupting such an innocent half-elf to use this language!]
[I figure that will take 2 phases. More after depending.
Crap-ola. There goes my much sought after anonimity. :) ]
GM: Ack. It was a lucky hit. P&P can be a deadly game for sure. :<
From Will: [Re: Actions]
Will hearing the swearing behind him has a sudden urge to duck.
GM: Ack.
From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
Kiet will try to grab Zhou and say "No!" holding up his index...
Kiet will cast his entangle spell at maximum EL and use the rope
to entangle the Vong that hurt Kell. With success, Kiet will
then happily extinguish the Vong life with some dagger thrusts
to the vitals.
GM: Ack. Keep in mind speaking takes away from spell casting time.
Looks like I gave the speech a 1 phase this time. I do have
a system on timing it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[New Stuff]
[Augado 10th, 1634TH]
[Location: Middle Katai Plains]
[ Mountains west of Pamau]
[Time: 12:56:24 pm]
Kiet prepares his mental energy to construct a mana source
for his entangle spell.
With a better angle now that Kell has slightly backed off,
Z'leyra raises her sling and fires at the Vong near Kell.
The sling bullet flies but lands behind the Vong missing him
entirely.
In extreme pain, Kell backs off away from the Vong about
7-8 feet. Leaving his first spear behind on the ground he
drops his shield and with his good left arm pulls his second
spear from his back harness. Even though his right arm is
shredded below the elbow and pouring out blood, Kell sees
blood in his eye for revenge. He curses outloud angry that
he is struck again in the good armor for a 3rd or 4th time
in less than a year or so. For such a calm trader it becomes
clear the rogue gamblers on those caravans got to him as well.
Cursing like a sailor, or Chion, he grips the second magical
spear in both hands. With shear adrenaline he raises the
spear and holds his bad arm with his good arm. Then with all
the might he can muster he hurls it the 10 feet or so at the
Vong warrior. The magical spear was meant for the large
gray face. But the strike is weaker due to Kell's wound so
it goes a big lower. It impacts just below the knee on the
right leg and penetrates deep doing a decent wound (8) past
his tough armor. The spear sticks out and begins to sag from
from gravity.
Raban attempts to grasp toward Warrior #8 and slaps the Vong
but its a light slap on his upper right chest doing a very
light wound only. Raban is a bit distracted as seeing Kell
wounded and now Fremea seems to have fled the scene and he can't
protect her.
Unali continues to move westward toward the other Vong group.
Farseeker runs as fast as he can as well toward the group
of Vong in the west.
Chion thrusts his sai toward Warrior #8's neck but fails to
strike anywhere close to him as the large man dodges and moves
like a acrobat.
Ben'dar runs as fast as he can toward the Vong in the west.
He wishes he had Tef'wo to speed things up.
Arawn still invisible moves west and comes behind Farseeker.
Kell staggers back a foot happy with the spear toss. He grips
his wounded arm with his left arm hoping to stop the blood loss.
Captain Lin moves northward toward the last Vong guarding the
main entrance.
Warrior #8 spears his amphistaff at Raban and does a minor
stab at his lower left chest. The giant takes it in stride though.
Warrior #9 turns to Will and stabs the amphistaff at him but
fails to make contact with the woodsman. The Vong turns to do
this attack on Will even with the spear impaled on his leg.
The Vong grins as if the pain seems to help determination to kill
or his suicide motivation.
The last Shaper #4 pulls out a small Orb from her gown when
she sees Unali and Farseeker running this way. She begins to
stroke it as she gives orders to the other three warriors nearby.
Going on the Shaper's orders Warrior #D rushes toward the three
humans nearby that were helping the Shaper harvest the pond items.
The warrior immediately stabs one of the defenseless humans and
slaughters him.
Warrior #C and #E rush eastward to engage the new threat.
Warrior #7 at the main entry area sees Captain Lin only about
40 feet away. He glances east to see others running this way
and the Shaper issuing orders. She is too far to hear the
orders but the warrior looks hesitant at first. Then turns to
the brown door and places a hand on something. The Vong door
which seems to be like a animal membrane opens out and divides
in two. The Vong warrior rushes through the exit.
Caladan runs fast toward the western Vong.
Kiet gives a couple feet toward Zhou and places a hand onto
the man's shoulder. "No!" Holding up his index finger to his
face. "You don't get near the Vong unless it's a dire emergency."
Will swings his Tulwar at Warrior #9 after he side steps and
ducks. He is a bit nervous by a sudden sling bullet flying
near him and the approach of a very large nasty spear. He
is glad Will wasn't close enough to be a pin cushion. But
in the process of avoiding this missile fire he fails to hit the
Vong warrior.
Strie'bog continues to run westward as well.
Zhou looks at Kiet with a bit of frustration and shock.
Zhou backs off a foot and looks at Kiet to show that he
can help his friends and this is a dire need. But there
is no time to argue now.
Fremea runs as fast as she can toward the Vong that just
escaped the cave. She curses Captain Lin slightly for not
letting her fly fast. But then again Captain Lin did help
her just moments ago with the Shaper. So she forgives him
for a few more minutes of aggravation.
[Time: 12:56:28 pm]
Kiet turns to glance at the Vong that stands with the spear
in his leg. He finishes the last amount of energy for the
last of his spell creation.
Z'leyra shifts slightly to get a better angle at the Vong
with the spear as a anklet. She fires again but fails to
hit the Vong again by a few inches.
Kiet turns toward the Vong and grabs one of his 12 foot
rope strands from his belt. He twirls it a bit over his
hand a couple of times and tosses it toward the Vong. As
he does this he speaks the magical words to invoke the spell
Since Kiet is a bit over 12 feet away the rope nears the feet
of the Vong. But as the words finish the rope strand begins
to climb like a snake up the legs of the Vong. The rope
strand twists and weaves around the heavy leather armor and
the boot spikes as if with ungodly dexterity. Kiet waves
a finger to the magical rope to further its course. The
rope ends up just below the arms as they continue to move.
Raban now being attacked himself tries to grab a hold of the
small Vong warrior but his grip is lost due to the shoulder
spikes the Vong wears.
Farseeker moves westward and engages Warrior #D who is also
moving his way. Farseeker swings his great sword but fails to
land a blow in the fast melee.
Chion uses his chance to strike at Warrior #8 who is now attacking
Raban. The Vong turns his side to Chion and the sailor twirls
around ending up behind the Vong. The large sailor stabs forward
with his sai and hits lower right near his waist. Which happens to
be a vulnerable spot in this case. The sai does massive damage
and with the other damage Raban did kills the Vong warrior.
Ben'dar continues westward to help Farseeker.
Arawn continues to run to help Farseeker still invisible. He
targets the Shaper rather than the warrior. He whispers as he
passes Unali so she can figure out his general direction so
not to bump against him.
Kell looks back to see Kiet doing his strange rope thing and
also at Zhou and nods his attempt to rescue. But Kell grabs
his shield back onto his left arm and backs away. He needs
to find Z'leyra nearby to see if she can do her healing.
Captain Lin notices the Vong door seems to have shut behind the
fleeing warrior. He seems to be nervous but then places a quick
palm slap against the area the Vong did. Nothing happens and
Captain Lin begins to bang on it. Finally Captain Lin slices
a downward slash and then a upward slash like a X on the Vong door.
The Vong door seems to pulse and a bit of fluid is seen. Lin
isn't sure if the Vong door is bleeding or just sweating.
Warrior #9 doesn't seem to notice the magical ropes moving
toward his hands and moves toward Will. He snaps the amphistaff
into a full snake in order for its poison to strike at Will
in a quick strike and recoil. But the large snake spear like
head fails to hit the woodsman.
Warrior #D strikes the second human with his staff and kills
the older female. The humans don't seem to be aware of
what is going on as if controlled and are just being slaughtered
by the warrior.
Warrior #C moves past Farseeker and toward Unali. But he doesn't
see Arawn directly in front and collides with the Alfar. Both
recoil from the blow but do not fall.
Warrior #E strikes at Farseeker with his amphistaff and hits
the warrior in the lower left chest near his waist. The stab
does a light wound through his chainmail.
Z'leyra notices Kell is wounded badly and wonders what to do
next with the last Vong in the immediate area.
Caladan and Strie'bog move westward to help the others.
Kiet ignores Zhou and Kell as he concentrates on the spell
of his ropes. He should be able to get the Vong entangled
in seconds.
Will strikes at Warrior #9 with the spear in his leg but
fails to hit the insane creature.
The Shaper stops for a second or two as she notices the warrior
stop hitting something. She doesn't see Arawn but why did the
warrior stop suddenly there? She continues to stroke the orb
and it begins to unfold a bit like a opening flower. She barks
a few other words toward the two warriors.
Fremea glances eastward and is shocked as she runs to see a
human slaughtered by one warrior. She notices one remains but
there is no chance even flying she could get there in time.
she glances back as she skids to a halt next to Captain Lin.
She examines the Vong Door up close. It looks a bit like
a animal or cow tongue. It is meaty and pimply. It seems to
have vein like places in the meat of green color. She examines
the door closely and tries to figure out if its blood leaking
out or something due to Lin's X slicing. She wonders how long
it will take to get through the door at this method of slicing
it open?

Next Update....Friday...
GM: Hope you guys had a good holiday! A quick 2 phase update.
Kiet the ropes didn't quite get to the arms yet. But
should be able to actually grasp the arms and pull next
phase. OF course strength will be tested to break them.
But with Raban, Will, Kiet, Zhou, Chion all against him
shouldn't be long to deal with him especially if the arms
are entangled.
Sadly folks forgot the humans near the harvesting north
Shaper. So two are dead. Not even Arawn who is closest
can run to stop the next death in time on foot.
Recap:
One Shaper (#4) left 30 feet from Arawn.
Warrior #7 off map other side of Vong Door.
Warrior #9 near Kell and others wounded.
Warrior #C, D and E near Farseeker/Arawn
One Human about to be attacked by Warrior #D
GM: Will update with tonight's experience for next update.
So tonight isn't reflected just the last update from Friday.
If reading the Mana/Experience link report. One a side
note fans of Torchwood it returns this Friday night on Starz!
