We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

Time for another literary abortion from me! This focuses on The Battle at The Smooth Points of Pride, the Jesters of Armok's involvment in the battle and further cementing that Ballpoint draws at least a number of competant soldiers from these "Historical MIAs."

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The overseers are references as follows

Shield-dorf: Hans and a reference to his stated habit of shield bashing people
Halberdier: human!Splint
Kobold: Corai
Grenadier: Mr Frog
Lasher: KodKod
Syringe-thrower: Girlinhat
Axedwarf: A reference to Jack Magnus' dwarf
Mechsuit guy: A reference to ThatAussieGuy and his penchant for insane engineering feats.


Likely a shitload of typos but I don't trust spellcheck. Probably missed a bunch as I went over it again for them.

Excellent writing as always, Talvieno and Splint :)

And Armok's Chosen (including a reference to me, at that) flying in on dragons? Kickass.

Aussie in a mechsuit seems all too fitting, as well.

I don't really have much time at all to be on right now, but I do have enough to post the next part as promised. I'll read your story post when I can, Splint, sorry I can't do it right now.

I wanted to do something suitably dramatic, plus the way I figure they would have had ample time to capture thier own dragons for emergencies, or when Armok tells them to get off thier asses finally get some shit done because the current fight would end up in the world destroying itself. "I'm the only one allowed to completely fuck up this place, so put those pansy ass vampires in thier place. Violently."

Why is it so quiet in here? Two nights in a row... I get not derailing, but come on - I prefer some talking over nothing. :P

Where is Reudh, anyway? Haven't had an official update from him for almost a week now...

I appear to be the only one left with any time on his hands during the day now. And that's gonna suck because my classes are all night classes so I'll more or less be cut off when school starts for me aside formt the thread. :\

Sorry, Reudh, I just realized I missed one of your updates. Found it again while getting the archives updated.

In other news, the archives are updated!

or at night. This is the second morning in a row where I've gotten up and almost nothing's been posted. Usually I have a couple pages to read through.

Well between getting bitched out by Mr Frog kind of freaked a good bit of us out. ANd the last thing we need is more srguing and whatnot becuas ewe went off topic or whatever. So.... We're trying to avoid talkif if we can help it it seems.

It wasn't a bitch out... negative language like that'll get us more rifts between us...

but anyway. Minor update time.

People kept getting scared because Longland shot a raven just above the entrance of Spearbreakers, so I sent Fischer's group to go get it. Forget who got there first, but Fischer was sound asleep at the time. They lightly tapped the unconscious raven who exploded into ludicrous gibs.

Very annoying because now i have to unsuspend all the floor that was cancelled because of a beaten, unconscious and broken raven. :/

"But it could come alive at any moment an' peck me eyes right off!"
"Don't you mean 'peck my eyes right out'?"
"Nae! Peck 'em right off!"

I tend to use alot of negative language. Don't take anything by it.

Raven problem, eh? Shoot at it? That might work... Or just send Fischer after it. Given the choice between Fischer and the Grim Reaper, I think it'd choose the latter...

It's humorous, at least... "IT'S A LITTLE BIRD! IT'S GONNA KILL ME!"
