Heroes, Inc. Day 3+, Voyage to Sarkon

[Hawkeye]

OOC: Tricky stuff here. I don't think Ilmater would allow for the execution of helpless foes. Death in battle is one thing, killing someone who is basically defenseless (tied up, under a spell etc) is another. Ilamater is primarily about defending those who can't defend themselves, though that usually applies to peasents. So, Shando would be against execution, but not against letting them go. I am sure those who follow Helm or Torm might have other feelings.

OOC: I think we need to take them all now. What we do with them eventually may be up for debate.

"Crimson - reinforcements will be here soon. How many people can you take with your new power (phase door)?"

 

[kirinke]

ooc:
Exalted is all about doing good right? Killing helpless prisoners isn't good. No matter if the prisoners are evil. We made the choice of letting them live, we have to deal with the consequences of mercy. Now, if they try to kill us, we have every right to defend ourselves. But as long as they 'behave' we can't. I'm thinking that both Alethia and the demon would protest killing them for those reasons. So if it's ok, Alethia didn't take the pirates to a safe point just yet.

"Crimson - reinforcements will be here soon. How many people can you take with your new power (phase door)?"

Crimson looked around for some barrier to pass through. "It does not work that way, my friend," Crimson replied. "I can control the pirates*, we can retreat with the prisoners and remaining pirates, though it will be slow unless someone has a way to fly everyone out of here."

She looked to Fin for the decision and what she should do.

OOC: *Assuming my action was successful back a few posts ago.

(I agree that executing them would be diecy...thats why I asked if you really wanted to heal them all. There wasnt a moral obligation to fix em up. But its too late now I guess)

It seemed you were mistakenly trying to dominate the ones not in the camp. You successfully dominate two of those you imprisoned.

 

[kirinke]

Alethia looks at the pirates Crimson had not dominated. Still in her forester garb, she presents a rather intimidating appearence. "Understand this. If you try to fight us, if you try to escape, we will be forced to kill you. If you behave, you will live." her eyes narrowed. "No tricks," she warned as she finished stabilizing them. She wasn't gentle.

"You may be given a chance to redeem yourselves," she added. "Trust me on that mark, redemption is better than death and damnation,"

She looked at Fin and Timrin. "Let's get out of this area, we've overstayed our welcome,"

 

[DM_Matt]

So where are you going? The other side of the island? The ship? The Rope Trick? Are you going to evade the 27 pirates and hree Kyton heading your way? Are you going to set a trap for them too? When are you going to interrogate the prisoners?

 

[kirinke]

ooc:
Prisoner interrogation would be held off untill we got to someplace safe. We can't lead them back to the ship. The rope trick... Well that might work, especially if cast in conjunction with non-detection.

IC
Alethia looks worried. "We can't lead them back to the ship. Rope trick will only work for a limited number of people." she looked at Kiran. "How many times can you cast Rope trick?" she asked, brain working rapidly. "We'll need to split up,"

She cursed. "No. Not splitting up. We'll need a decoy, something to lead them away from this place. Once we've led them away, you need to get these guys across the island."

"I'll be apart of the decoy squad."

 

[Hawkeye]

"Should those of us fleet of foot act as advanced scouts or rear guard?"
