In addition to the flexing, see if dodging skills allow you to perform a back-flip for maximum assertion of dominance over the gaurd.

I realize upon rereading that the last half of this adventure should have seen us killed several times over.  I feel like it's become an epic struggle between MottledPetrel trying his best to keep us alive, and the the community doing exactly the opposite.

I thought that was the goal?

Just about every "Community Input" story I've ever been a part of has been just that: Me trying to progress the plot in a safe, interesting, and creative way while the rest of the participants scream "KILL EVERYTHING".

Flex hard at the guard, then point to your lack of ability to flex the other arm. Carve instructions in the off-chance they don't understand Koboldish.

Working on an update but since impromptu backflips require full animation it will be a bit longer than normal.  :P

I realize upon rereading that the last half of this adventure should have seen us killed several times over.  I feel like it's become an epic struggle between MottledPetrel trying his best to keep us alive, and the the community doing exactly the opposite.

It is called Losing Is Fun after all.

You are a legendary dodger. Of course you can do a backflip. You flex on that guard.



"Bravo, bravo.", he says. He pulls you, the other dwarf and the goblin into a huddle.



He continues, "We are going to make such a good team. Are you ready to conquer those monsters?"

The goblin squirms out of the huddle. She says, "I will do what I must to survive even if that means being entertainment for you filthy dwarves."

The other dwarf says, "Please, I just want to go back to my family."

The goblin replies, "At least you get to go free after the fight, and you, champion, why would you volunteer to fight in the pits?"

"for death and glory of course. Now, little one, we have to get you ready for the fight. Would you like to spend our time sparing or in the danger room?"

Tough call.  Sparring- safer but slower.  Danger room- risky, but potentially massive skill gain.

It's actually pretty terrifying to think about having all of your fat melt off into grease because you started sweating too much.
