TURN ONE - A BAD START

Cog:{T}
You fling the gruel at the nearest guard, an old human! Covered in gruel, he walks off to see if they have any 'small purple mushrooms' as you described them. The other guard laughs so hard he falls off his chair.

Teacup: {H}

The snot was paper mâché. The guards are laughing at their cruel joke.

Tenath: {H}
You break the pin trying to pick the lock with it. The guards notice your escape attempt and one walks towards you menacingly. Oops.

Mary: {H}
The guards are female.

James: {T}
You begin practising your skills with the bread.
Hmm, hungry...
...
Item eaten: bread.

{That was a lot of failures.}

Okay, bad start, but we can still salvage this.

You have to specify a side of the coin. (Not that it matters, statistically, but still.)

A little dependant on what the guard's going to do but.

Guard opens door, I kick guard in the face knockout. I have free open door! {Tails}

Locate something else I could throw. Actually, find anything neat or useful. {T}

TURN TWO - Why is everyone picking tails?

Cog: {H}
The only useful stuff is held by the guard. Who's on the other side of the bars. In other news, the other guard gets back, holding a plump helmet, {H} which he eats slowly in front of your face.
Meanie.

Teacup: {T}
You gnaw on your toes. Ow. Not sure why you did that...

Tenath: {H}
You kick the wall next to the guard. Ouch. The guard looks down at you disdainfully, and pulls out a large club. {T} you dodge his clumsy first attack though.

Mary: {T}
The guards listen to your protests and walk off to get better food.

James: {H}
You now have an impromptu knife. You're pretty sure the guards haven't noticed.

(I always pick tails :P)

Go all out, kick the guard's face, knock him out.

(I've decided to pick whatever was flipped last time.)

"Ye goblin-loving elfson!" Spit at the guard and demand food.

Now we just need an action from Caz.

Post by: TopHat on October 30, 2012, 02:25:37 pm
Ok, It's been long enough waiting for an action from Caz, so Teacup's been autoed.

TURN 3 - GUARDS DOWN!

Cog: {H}
The guard walks off to get you some food.

Teacup [auto - ask for more snot {H}] {T}
A guard hands you some snot, and you begin eating, but quickly find that it's paper mâché. The guards are surprised you fell for that one again...

Tenath: {T}
You finally manage to get a blow on the guard, kicking him in the face! {T} It knocks him out, and the club drops by your feet. The other guard looks nervously at you.

Mary: {T}
You pick the lock utilising your finger, and step out into the corridor.
To the north, you can hear some arguing about 'small purple mushrooms'.
To the south, the footsteps of the guards, hopefully with some food.

James: {H}
Hearing an elven cry of pain down the corridor, you leap into action, slashing at the nearest guard through the bars! {H} you stab him in the stomach, and he drops to the ground screaming. The other guard is out of your reach however, and pulls out a sword, which has a much longer reach than your shank. Oh no...

Watch fight.
Realize I might be able to get out...
...And find my own plump helmets!
Shout at the fight, trying to distract the guard.
I keep forgetting! Heads.

YAS!

Pick up club. Hit guard with club. Repeat until guard is either unconcious or deceased! {Tails}

Caz: if there are no posts for another few turns, I'm afraid Teacup will catch a bolt of lightning. For now you've been autoed.

Otherwise:
TURN 4 - Some more fighting.

Cog:{T}
You shout at the fight.
'die guards die! Die now! Then I can get plump helmets!'
The guard looks in the direction you're shouting in, and runs to the aid of his colleague.
{H} the other guard comes back, hands you a plump helmet, and wonders where his friend got to.

Teacup: [auto- distract guards {T}] {T}
You keep your guards' attention away from the fighting by juggling balls of paper mâché snot. {H} you fail miserably, much to their amusement.

Tenath: you pick up the club, advance on your guard, and  {T} you smash his face to a bloody pulp in one blow. Another guard runs at you (Cog*) {T} but clumsily trips, alerting you. {H} he gets up before you can get him, however.

Mary: {H}
You close the door, making it look good as new. Erm... Shouldn't you be on the other side of the door?
The guards walk in, and stare at you.

James: {T} he ducks the shot, and {H} throws it back, missing you!
It continues like this for a minute, before {H} the shank hits him in the throat. He gurgles something along the lines of 'fifteen love' before passing out. You calmly get keys of the corpse, walk into the corridor, and recover the shank.

* randomly decided whether he'd go for you or James. H popped up.

Cannot wait to get a weapon more befitting an elf, but.

Club this new guard in face. {Heads} (yes, I chose heads this time. Yes, I have set myself up for epic failure. Let's watch the ensuing chaos! :)

Thank the guard for the plump helmet. Eat.
