FFFF damn it. Well, I'd like that full respect you offered. Here's the new sheet which I guess everyone should be able to see.

Name: Person
Appearance: Vaguely British looking and male, but otherwise exceedingly difficult to describe.
Stats:
Strength: --
Dexterity: ++
Speed:
Endurance: --
Potency: ++
Will: -
Channeling: +++

And now the action, which not everyone should be able to see.

All right all right I'll change it. You can get rid of those quotes now. I guess I'll be a muscle wizard after all. Apparently I misread the stat rules a fair bit at first.

Remember, you can only move 1 stat point on death/rebirth.

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

While this is true, I gave Person (and Flabort) one chance at a full respec since they replaced in and didn't necessarily start with the character they wanted.


Just lacking one.

TEAM EAST

Spoiler: Another Eastern Pun (click to show/hide)
Edited: Nothing was wrong with the spoiler, nothing at all.

Adjusted.

[Speed:1]

While Jefro's getting up, Bastien tries his own magic.

[Pot:5+2]

Oh look, your own steel lance much like the one Derm made.  It's also really heavy and unwieldly due to its size.  Sure you want it?

You go to disarm Johnny, despite Derm having already done half the job quite well.  He's charging at you, but you grab at him first.

[Dex:5+2]
[Str:2]

You grab him, but the sword just sticks to his hand; odd.

[Str:4]

He totally fails to break the grapple you have him in now.



[Speed:3]

Derm unleashes his focus on his magical assault.

[Pot:4+2+1]
[Dex:2+1]

A massive spear- more of a lance- forms in the air and streaks off toward Johnny.  You squint, and you think it blasted his arm off.  Nice.

Chuckling, Derms walks off the bridge to the west and makes himself a weapon.

[Pot:2+2]

He summons and scoops up a steel mace.  It's not big but it's perfectly serviceable.



[Dex:3]
[End:4]

You finally manage to get the flames out, and manage to do so without seriously burning yourself any more.  You still smell like a cookout, though.

[Pot:6+2]

You are surrounded by a beautiful shimmering image of a majestic bird; it's like you're standing at the center of it.


Spoiler: East (click to show/hide)

Remembering you can't inside the spawn area, you pop into the starting fort.  From there, you lay down some magic.

[Pot:5+2]

A magical sparkle envelopes your whole body, then bursts into being.  Your flesh takes a metallic tone of steel and hardens.  Smiling, you try the next step.

[Pot:2+2]

Well... it's no mighty steed, but it's a small horse with the same metallic flesh as you.  Can you ride it?

[Dex:1-1]

Turns out that trying to mount a horse with no tack is rather difficult, and also you're terrible at this.  You end up flat on your back with the horse running off toward the battlefield.




Sir Lootington respawns as Person, now only vaguely British.  He plops down in the respawn area.


TEAM WEST

Spoiler: West (click to show/hide)

[Speed:1+1]

Jefro attempts to defeat his nemesis with his bear hands.

[Pot:3]

Jefro shoots a multitude of very thin chains made of ice.  They are flimsy but many, and enough of a shock that the bear falls over backwards, pawing at them.  It's clear that they won't stop him for long; it's enough time that he can stand up.  Now what?


Spoiler: Weirdest West (click to show/hide)

[Speed:1-1]

Johnny moves to assist his teammate, but is interrupted by a flying steel lance.

[Dex:2+1]
[End:5]

Johnny tries to evade, but it's as if the lance homes in on him at the last minute.  It smashes into his left arm; his metallic flesh can't stop it, and the lance severs the arm near the shoulder.  It continues onward, carrying the arm into the void. Johnny howls in rage and continues his attack; while he managed to keep his sword, it's suddenly very hard to use with only one arm.  That said, the distraction gives Bastien time to close the distance and go for the grapple.

[Dex:4+1]
[Str:3-1-1]

He tries to disarm Johnny, but the sword sticks to Johnny's cold metallic hand.  His grip's enough to block the sword being used against him, though.

[Str:3-1-1]

Can't kick him off either.

Spoiler: Victorious West (click to show/hide)

With no one to stop you, you remove East's control of the northern point.

*NORTH POINT NOW CONTROLLED BY NO TEAM*

Keep this up and it will belong to your team.


You warp out of the spawn area, reappearing at the home base.  Charging, you make it all the way across the bridge and to the northwest battlements.

Spoiler: To the West! Or not. (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Note (click to show/hide)

[Pot:2+1]

This gets you a silver... piglet puppy.  It's got four short legs, floppy ears, a curly tail, a fairly flattened snout... yeah, it's a pigdog.  The other puppies immediately accept it as one of their own.  You've got quite the pack going.


West removes East control from the north point!  What will happen next?

I think we'll start a puppy store, that's what's next!

That one does like his puppies, does he not?

Coolrune:  Jefro - South Capture Point (1/4 Pool) [Steel Gauntlets]  {Light burns on chest, Head bleeding}


I'm realizing how bad I am at keeping tenses straight here.  I tend to do second person in solo events and third person, but usually I just muddle it up.
