Campaign

About armour, it is covered in the Red Bull logo and colours and ingredient list and stuff because it was made from the giant can, right? Unless of course it was a generic giant energy drink can, or it was turned inside out or the colours scrubbed off during crafting. Not that that helps at all, just an interesting pattern to have on armour.
By the way does the armour have a helmet?


Very very quietly: "...don't make a sound if you want to live"
Oh shit why the hell didn't I hide properly how do I get out of this?
Calm down you've been through way worse.


Tsar the commwire properly and hopefully quietly. It's my best trump card.
It is indeed just made out of can material, with some colour scratched/removed due to processing. You rolled well when creating it, so you can assume whatever small stylistic choices you would like. Like, for example, putting the logo on the shield, like a sort-of heraldry. The symbols knights and soldiers had on their shields and flags are called heraldry, right?

Yes, it does have a helmet. You had enough material and rolled well, so I said "why not"? I assumed that since it is light armour, you would go with a simple helmet, just something that covers the top and sides of your head and the back of your neck while not obstructing your hearing and vision very much. But if you want to go for something heavier, just say so before it becomes relevant and its quantum state collapses.

You very quietly speak to the scout while lamenting not doing something to better hide, like covering your armour with dirt or your cloth bag or using a branch to obscure your tracks, or hell, even trying to stab the scout before he had a chance to act (although with your luck, that would had probably ended with you somehow stabbing yourself). At the same time you try to tsar your comm-wire with no effect.

"...don't make a sound if you want to live" you warn the scout, but even before you start speaking, his hand has started moving towards his sword.
"Here! They're here!" he shouts as he draws his sword and gets in a defensive stance.
Well. That doesn't sound good.

"...want some Red Bull?"

Alan vacantly grins.

Add straw to camel's back

Also summon a large amount of donuts to induce happiness in the nearby individuals

Xan, sensing that someone who is not him has just experienced a huge stroke of bad luck and fail, fears for his throne. In an effort to deter his would be usurper, he attempts to bring fun to his current situation.

You summon a perfectly good doughnut that falls into the boy's hands. He takes a bite out of it. He seems to like it. In fact, he looks a bit calmer now. The woman looks confused for half a second before looking away from you and hmph-ing in contempt.
...
An action you intended to make things better actually made things better? What is this madness?

Damn it! Nikolai stole your luck! You bet that's why he run away. He just wants to steal your spotlight.

Firstly, this goes in my sig. This is incredible.

"No probs, Irine! My ideas only explode around 87 percent of the time, after all.

<They found me, reinforcements are very welcome!> Nikolai sounds panicked.

"I warned you! Now flee if you want to live!"
Maybe if I use enough overwhelming firepower they'll give up and run away? At least I can down fighting.
Shit why did we even go in this way I thought we were running away from them not towards them.


Trebuchet that guy and everyone in his general direction. His defensive stance is futile! Or slash at him with a tsar sword if it's a more appropriate range. Or stab him then tsar the sword if he's really close.

You get up and try to use your trademark tsar-sling combo, while the scout maintains his defensive stance. You tsar the sling too soon and the entire thing, both rock and sling, ends up getting ripped away from your hand, flying in a long arc. The oversized projectile slams on the scout who made the poor choice of watching flabbergasted instead of capitalizing on the opportunity you gave him to dodge and run. A large part of his lower body gets crushed with a horrible noise and buried in a small gory crater. The scout moans in pain as he lays bleeding with his back against the dirt. After a few moments, he closes his eyes and stops moving.

That's one down, but he was just one lonely scout and there's more where that came from. The other nearby scouts are already running your way and the rest are not far behind. Unless you have some grander plan, sustaining this would probably not be possible.

Quick, what is Ike's location relative to Nikolai? How far, what direction compared to the soldiers? Does he even know?

... I'm bored. Arm-wrestle someone. Yell at the guy's face until he says yes, but let them "win", by pulling my arm backwards. Or do I push my arm forward, I'm not sure. Anyways, award their win with a "puny sample" of plasmid, because I'm sure having the ability to shoot out fireballs is cool, and I would be making friends by giving them cool things, like super-drugs.

You don't know. Can't see him from here. You know the direction he went, somewhere towards the north... Assuming he hasn't been spotted because he's out of their range and not because he hid better/was luckier than you, then... probably a minute or two of very fast running away?

Campaign, Ike!

((I'm just falling behind on everything lately. Apologies for sporadic posting.))

What do I see? What do I hear? What do I know? Anything? Nothing? Everything? It's likely the middle one.

Nevertheless, mentally tabulate what's exactly happening right now. Am I presently stabbing somebody in the face, perhaps? That can happen sometimes when you're not paying attention with these magic hands of mine.

Okay then. Nikolai draws his sword and... runs towards the direction where Ike probably is. 2v20 is better than 1v20. North is running away from the soldiers right?

If they are close to catching him he will tsar the commwire finally goddammit and shout painfully loudly into their brains like an angry slavic banshee. And also I'm pretty sure the commwire can transmit images too (at least it did for Irene) so he will try to upload bright flashing lights and gross porn to their brains too. Speed of thought. And how about some images of the BETA and the army of zombies and tentacle monsters by the portal too. And Birdriver. And naked Alan. Just trying to shock them and wreck their morale.

Of course defend self with the sword and shield if necessary or possible.
