[QUOTE="JoeNotCharles, post: 5004746, member: 79945"] [sblock=OOC] Sorry for holding everybody up - every time I've been reading the boards I had two DM threads to update, and then I'd look at this one and see that I was 2 pages behind that I had to catch up on before posting, which kind of kills the inspiration. I figured with so much posted already I'd missed my chance to kick Haruka's ass. [/sblock] Ironheart's leaves shiver, now flush with greenery. He opens his eyes, lowers his axe, and creakily unfolds his limbs from their frozen position. [color=Olive]"It got away,"[/color] he rumbles. [color=Olive]"I was watching for it to attack, and I saw no movement to react to. It got away. Failed again."[/color] He shakes himself, sending his new foliage fluttering. [color=Olive]"No. Not failed. Not if anyone lives. Have I protected you?"[/color] He wheels around to see the party, and sees Haruka standing in the midst of the cirlce of dead vegetation. [color=Olive]"What... what has happened here...?"[/color] Suddenly the sigils in the iron rod flare red-hot, matched by the sudden burning of Ironheart's eyes. [color=Red]"YOU!"[/color] the tree roars. [color=Red]"YOU did this!"[/color] With two great strides it crosses the marshy ground to enter the ring of devestation, brandishing the axe. At the last moment it halts its swing. [color=Red]"This axe cut down the grove I swore to defend,"[/color] it hisses. [color=Red]"THIS axe bit deep in their bark and opened their hearts to the air!"[/color] It raises the axe one-handed and shakes it in Haruka's face. [color=Red]"Now you have done the same! Every shrub, every blade of grass that you've murdered, had a spirit that cries out for vengeance! Why did you do it? WHY? Tell me now why I should not break my oath again, and CUT YOU LIMB FROM LIMB?"[/color] (Wait, didn't this axe come from the hollow tree? Ironheart left his original axe on the bank...) [sblock=OOC] I know social skills don't work on other PC's, but what the hell. [url=http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2328439/]Intimidate (1d20+7=22)[/url] [/sblock] [sblock=Resting and Levelling] I'm ok with a skill challenge, I'm trained in Nature. Will it screw up the balance if I spend some DM credits to jump to Level 3? Haven't decided if I want to yet, or if I want to save them, just want to know if it's ok. [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
