D1: Ashin's Commission (El Jefe judging)

[Patlin]

ooc: Yes, Ironwolf is going to continue with his previously stated action. Much to Michael's dissapointment, I know, but he's all too aware of the limited time left on his force shield, and is perfectly willing to fight to save his friend. He'd rather not fight a potential innocent, but by keeping his psicrystal hostage Ironwolf feels they've demonstrated ill will. It's time for the refuse to make contact with the rotary impeller.

 

[Erekose13]

Eternity will stick with her plan, to follow Zaeryl and make sure he is okay.

The Stonepike Mountains

Round 5[sblock=Hulgyr, Michael, Ironwolf, Eternity, Almayce: ]- Hulgyr lifted his sword nonthreateningly and angrily demanded that the soldier give the rock back.
- Michael chided Ironwolf for his impatience.
- Michael asked a soldier if he was going to be naughty.
- The soldier said, "not unless you make me!"
- Ironwolf got real big and tried to make him.

Private Kneeler's eyes grew bigger than Orussus Crowns as Ironwolf grew to the size of two men and demanded that he give the psicrystal back.

OoC: His actions in response to all this won't come until next turn.

Eternity and Almayce, at opposite ends of the line, slipped away from the rest of the group and headed the same way that Zaeryl did, out of the clearing and into the forest. They gave each other knowing glances as the rest grew obscured by the trees.

- Eternity and Almayce decided to see what fun Zaeryl was having.

OoC: Almayce and Eternity are both in the woods. They are about 10' apart, Almayce in front and to the left.[/sblock][sblock= Zaeryl: ]Zaeryl heard more talking back at the path. It soundsed like Ironwolf, and it sounded like he was losing his patience.[/sblock]

(OOC: Yep, and don't forget the even clearer sign of ill will in chasing after the guy who was just leaving quietly

Does Zaeryl see Eternity and Almayce? Otherwise, he sticks to the stated plan.)

 

[Erekose13]

Eternity will catch up with Almayce as they continue forward. Until she can see what is going on she wont prepare anything specifically offensive.

*Zaeryl glances back at his companions.*

"They have drawn their weapons and are menacing us and attempting to corral us in for the capture. The only rational action now is to end this--we could have been even more likely to prevent unnecessary loss of life if we had just done so from the start instead of having the other cleric try to attack us all with his mood-changing mind control," he turns to stare at the soldiers, "Approach us if you dare, lapdogs of the oppressors. It may be time for Zephos to reap a new harvest."

(OOC: If he moves diagonally up-right by one, he should be able to hit T already with a SoC and he'll also hit Q if Q moves for him in any possible direction that avoids drawing an AoO from at least Almayce. He therefore readies an action in order to do just that)

 

[B4cchus]

"That's it! I count to three an you give the stone or i'll do ye!" Hulgyr yells at private kneeler in a very aggrivated way. He readies a grapple in case the private attempts to flee (move away).

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Yay, we're going to stop the stand-still on both fronts )

 

[B4cchus]

(ooc: not planned, but fun nontheless!)

-edit i'll e gone for the weekend. NPC Hulgyr as you see fit. He will only use lethal force in response to such force by the soldiers. He prefers to grapple them and maybe tie them down if push comes to shove. His patience has worn down though, so his next action would be to get the crysta by (non lethal) force.
