M'kay.

((Wow, you guys really don't half-ass failure. I don't think a whole team has simultaneously failed so epically before, though.))
((Wait, what? Now this, this you'll have to explain. In great detail preferably. How are we even remotely failing here? We captured the command room and prevented it from being destroyed. Sure, it took quite some collateral, but it's not beyond use so once Steve comes online he can plug in and do the rest. And Auron falling down is a result of bad dice luck, which is to be suspected from time to time.))
((Failure might be the wrong word...but you are (theoretically) avoiding collateral damage, and all caused it and/or failed at once. Besides, not one action went as intended. It's the synchrony more than anything that is notable.))
((I suppose so, but dude, you were on the Ice-9 mission with me! Now that's failure.))

Grin as my brain is being operated on.
Be really jealous of Renen somehow.

World War III on this world is gonna be pretty interesting, I gotta say.

Till Dark gets bored, and summons the components to the infinite myr/mana combination to swarm the planet.
Noted.

Indeed.
I've accidentally put the idea in myself now, though. At the first sign of trouble Merlin's gonna barricade himself so hard no one's gonna know even how to find them, let alone get past the devlish dungeons and such he'll set up.
Oh god I'm becoming a dungeon boss in D&D.

I crack my knuckles as I sit down at the computer. Everyone I know, which is precious few these days, tells me it's a bad habit.
I don't listen much to them, and if that dream I had last night was right, I might not have to anyways. After all, what use is worrying about arthritis if the world's ending?
Bah, I mutter. Why I believe this shit in my head, I've no idea. Fucking defective sleeping pills.
Yet despite myself, I can't quite bring myself to the task of doing the job I get paid for - I basically act as one of 5 digital secretaries for this guy out in New York, so I rearrange files, call people, that type of stuff. Nothing compared to my days of grilling suspects back in the force, but it pays the bills. Yet I find my fingers typing in Google something entirely different.
Maybe I'll call in sick today. I heard you could do that a few times.

Research any unusual happenings in or around the city, at present or in the past few years. Unusual as in supernatural, just plain creepy of the cultist kind, etc.

Good luck getting past my soon-to-be literally endless fields of traps.

Good! As you can see, right now I'm a pile of something. I don't even know how I'm talking right now, honestly. Anyway, would you mind giving me a body I can be proud of as a Viking? I'm an incredible chef, so I can make it up to you, and you won't even lose any body parts in the cooking process!

16975
I WILL EVENTUALLY

Valthas paused. Something was scratching at the back of his mind; what was it that his own lord had taught him while he was but a mere squire himself?
Polish that buckle more!
Nope.
My horse shat, get the cloth.
NO. Valthas shuddered at the memory.
Conserve your coin

Make sure you-

Always-

-good first-

Wait, what was that one? He ceased scrolling through his memories and focused on that one.

His lord stood high above him on his horse, facing the town.
"Now then, Valthas," he said as he gazed ahead, "always make a good first impression on the lowlife. That means shiny. The more shiny you are, the more shiny money they will give you. Remember that, Valthas. Shiny is always the best option."
"Yes, lord."

Of course, that didn't help much when the idiot got eaten while trying to filch gold from a dragon's lair, but still, the lesson held. Now then, what was his squire called?
(remembering roll d6: 5)
Renee Mercator, of course! How could he have forgotten whatsherface's name.
Er, Renee? Mind polishing the old glaive?
At her look, he retorted, The one I stab beasties with. On my back right now. Always good to not be misinterpreted.

Have squire polish glaive in order to make it impressive! Then head into the town, trying to look calm and collected.

Why of course!
I'll be sure to love it right back to pieces.
And a few bits, for variety.

Niklas approaches the man.

You, froop*! Are you a mage, wizard, or transmuter by any chance?

*froop: unknown but presumably badass person

(ok, when I get back in, me, Execute/Dumbo.exe, and Derm need to form a rock band and disintegrate the city with sound waves.
That will solve everything.)
((One-upping you on that, actually.))

Yeah, if BFEL ran away like a pansy, he'd likely get his powers and the fatelock revoked.
Of course, Xantasnake would then pursue and eat him for being a pansy.
