HELIODOR

Your room has various hanging scrolls, in a language that is familiar... yet you can't seem to read it. When you look at the round table in the center, there are various scrolls, and five small boxes with a small hole in the center, as well as a small collection of white marbles.

On one box, you see a SWORD, just looking at it gives you a sense of STRENGTH.

On another, you see a SHIELD, just looking at it gives you the safe feeling of great DEFENSE.

On another, you see the carvings of what looks like a gust of WIND, looking at it gives you the feeling of great SPEED.

On yet another, you see a carving of a pair of PLAYING CARDS, you find yourself feeling a little LUCKY today.

On the final box, there is a flowing RIVER, and you feel in better HEALTH.

If you count the number of marbles, there are only 50 of them. Each box looks like it can only hold 20 total marbles.

Finally, there are 2 pieces of parchment and a quill off to the side. On the first parchment, you can read:

NAME ME
AND TELL ME FROM WHENCE WHICH I CAME:
FROM FIRE
FROM WATER
FROM EARTH
FROM ICE
FROM MAGIC


On the other:
YOU MAY GIVE ME FOUR ABILITIES. THEY MAY BE ATTACKS
OF YOUR OWN MAKING. OR THEY MAY BE SPELLS THAT WILL INCREASE MY STRENGTH, OR DEFENSE.
OR SPELLS THAT WILL DECREASE THE STRENGTH OR DEFENSE OF MY OPPONENT.


You can hear Nimue's voice, but you can't see her.

"Create a great creature of legend, heroes. I look forward to your creativity... but it is not creativity that will win this game. Your creature must survive battle with another. While creativity will serve you well, it is truly strategy that will be your greatest companion. You may choose the creature from the scrolls that will represent you in battle."

[Nods.]

So high speed and luck, average health and defense?

And load the rest into strength.
uneulogized: (angsty loner guy: take one.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
And one of our moves can take care of what we lack.
wouldntkilladragon: (Well maybe if we....)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Nods.] Boost our attack.

Though if we had opposites of each other....lower their defense, boost our attack, it could do more.
uneulogized: (wasn't expecting strawberries either.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
And then two attacks.

Our boosts should sound like it's helping something else. Like lowering defense should be "our lucky day."
wouldntkilladragon: (He can't leave at all?)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Nods.] So they won't know what happened. And raising our attack could be...stone wall?
wouldntkilladragon: (Read up)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Nods.]

So maybe either magic or earth for where it's from?

[Looking at the monster list again.] Or should we be misleading with that too?
uneulogized: (i eat deodorant too. i smell great.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
No.

Let's be obvious with that one.
wouldntkilladragon: (Well let me think....)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Nods.]

We should probably choose a form then.
uneulogized: (well well. all right then.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
You said no dragons, right?
wouldntkilladragon: (Read up)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, no dragons. If we were fighting WITH them, that's another story, but if we're not...

[It makes me feel all skeevey.]
uneulogized: (aw! you wanna romance me.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
The Hellcat looks cool.
wouldntkilladragon: (....huh)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
It does, but is it misleading? Cats are fast.
uneulogized: (angsty loner guy: take one.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Huh, they might think we're going for the hell part.
uneulogized: (aw! you wanna romance me.)

[considerrrrs scrolls]

Mummy.

Let's go mummy.
wouldntkilladragon: (Welp!)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Hel is intimidating...though didn't they spell it wrong?

[W-what is even that creature...]

It is rather horrifying.
uneulogized: (allergen free is the way to go.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
Different culture.

Wanna go with it?
wouldntkilladragon: (Hold that pose....)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

I'm fine with it. It looks like it'd be slow too.
uneulogized: (allergen free is the way to go.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly.

Let's name it Bob.
uneulogized: (they don't know what a clitoris is?)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
Bob the Mummy from Texas.
wouldntkilladragon: (Sup)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
I have no idea what Texas is, but sure. I'm good with that.

So, earth? Or magic to go with the whole stat change?
uneulogized: (THE GREAT JASON TODD.)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] uneulogized 2012-10-23 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
I like magic mummies, sure.
wouldntkilladragon: (Well let me think....)

Re: DISCUSSION

[personal profile] wouldntkilladragon 2012-10-23 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. So we have two attack, element, form, name...

Just the other two attacks.

It's got bandages, maybe something like whips or a tangle up?
