((Yes. You never know...))
"Darn. It's probably real...I wish I wasn't alone. This feels like a horror movie...and not a good one."
Look around the room. Which am I in? Is it the same one as before?

But realistically, a werewolf with its mind extracted is probably just going to be free experience points...No, the other way around. Drop the adventurer in with the werewolf.
Also, not entirely serious.

P.S.Even if it can't be controlled, it's still useful...as a threat, if nothing else.
Also, if it can be controlled, a werewolf is a pretty good tool. If folk know what the werewolf is, and don't catch it, then they are likely to go into witch-hunt mode...

Well, now that the dragon's dispatched is a good time to remind everyone of gold dragons' fire immunity!But Angel is ridiculously cute when not transformed and she can still decide when to change back.Precisely. She's the face of magic girls--we decided this back in the last RP session. She needs to go, even if Nuriel is about as good at PR as a hobo on fire. She just won't transform, which Suits Angel just fine.

« on: June 15, 2013, 07:12:59 pm »Or, anyone's for that matter.Indeed. But Grewie already distrusted Alexandria.
Your point being? Being liked or trusted is not a concern for the blades. They have a job to do and will carry it out. Nothing beyond that is important.My point being, there is another reason for Grewie to act distrustful towards the Blades and their leader. For instance...well, the escort thing. Without the "assassin" incident, Grewie wouldn't have made a fuss about the Blades escorting him.
You could teach them to read maps. Then they wouldn't get lost in the woods!Sounds like a good idea!
Besides...
Lol wyrm, you were given an assignment 24 hours ago and haven't even made ready to leave yet? God forbid we ever need your magic, the battle would be over before you'd even got out of bed.Hey, I was assuming that the preparations took time...and I'm still not entirely sure how much time has passed since the assignment was given...and I didn't have a chance to post every minute...and the night kinda passed quickly...
...and maybe Grewie was still hoping to get the escort reduced. That's a reasonable thing, right?
Quote
Plus blades are assassins first spies second and far better armed and trained then any but the wardens, so your going be guarded by militia, good luck surviving.Regardless, assassins are not warriors. Bring this up if you wish, I have a response prepared.
In fact, please bring it up.
What you have done is impressive but to rely on your past to tell me how you will react in the present would be foolish in the extreme and we have not served the king for 10 years with a perfect record of success by being foolish and taking risks.Didn't you take a foolish risk by having one of your women fake being an assassin who was going to kill the king?

Change the government into a representative democracy-thing with two houses, the first comprised of us and a second comprised of representatives from each town and city, these people are to be voted in, however, each house can veto the others ruling. This veto can be overturned if the first house has 4/5's voting for the law.-1, too modern and sudden. One step at a time; there's a reason there was a Second French Revolution. To quote a certain well-known urchin:

When Grewie heard of the incident that occurred, he considered the implications.
Alexandra claimed she was testing the Wardens...but was it a test, or was all as it at first seemed? Regardless, Grewie was less confident than ever about the loyalties of the Blades. He considered this for a moment, then brought his proposal to the king.
"My liege, I have a request regarding the escort I have been assigned to travel through the wilderness. Firstly, I have been made aware that the Blades will have other tasks once they have finished escorting me, as is independently indicated by the large number being sent with me. However, I suspect that raiders and bandits will be a danger to me beyond wherever our paths must part as well as on the journey home. Secondly, the Blades are spies first and warriors second; I would sleep more soundly if I knew some who devoted their lives to excellence on the battlefield were guarding over me than if only several glorified spies were. Thirdly, I may still face dangers in the enemy nation, and therefore must be protected; but if I was protected only by the Blades, who you may have noticed are all women, they would think much less of me and, by extension, you and our kingdom.
"The solution to all three of these issues is simple and the same: Send some soldiers along with me as an escort. I do not require many--you may remember that I protested that ten blades were too many for my singular person back when they were initially assigned--but such guards would assuage these issues, increasing the security and certainty of the success of this mission."

He's going DOWN, just as soon as he reaches the peak of the arc in which he is jumping. In the meantime, Wander will be defeating him with his impressive archery skills.

"It's 'Wander'!" shouts Wander, wondering as he often did why people always called him The Wanderer. Probably something to do with my teammates' names, he decided again.
"It's-a time-a for-a you-a to-a go-a down-a!" he shouted at the green plumber, mocking his tic. He then followed that with a few arrows, carefully aimed at Luigi's vitals, accounting of course for the momentum of Lugigi (easier than it sounds once he's in the air).
