Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

[KidCthulhu]

Quotes from the night of drunkeness:

"I bet I could grab your steak from 10' away with my whip."-Dranko
"And I'd take it back with Mage Hand." - Greywolf
"I could roast it from 400 feet." - Aravis

"And I could ward mine with Searing Darkness - Morningstar
[this was followed by wary silence. Morningstar is proclamed the winner of the steak standoff.]

"Ernie, you should cook more steaks." - Flicker
"Yeah, we should fight more cows!" - Ernie

"Did I tell you that the Emperor is much more powerful than that dragon we fought?" - Aravis (for the fourth time)
"Well, duh. 'Cuz if the dragon was the Emperor, he'd be wearing a little crown" - Ernie

It was really a silly run. We, the players, were practically tipsy with relief and triumph, so role playing drunk was pretty easy. But, as Aravis said, we had to do something during the session, because he wasn't going home to his wife and telling her we'd spent 5 hours pretending to be drunk.

Not only that, but we've got two or three big mansions back in Kal Lor (the city of shadow), the ones with the Greywolf-slaying black ritual space underneath them. There we hired the captain of the city guard to live in one of the three, and watch the other two. It seemed like an equitable solution.

We'll probably do something similar with Castle Blackhope.. err, Longtooth Keep. It's cool to own real estate, but the Greenhouse is much cozier - and safer.

Incidentally, I'm being maligned here. Dranko only dropped his trousers for perhaps fifteen or twenty seconds. He's not an exhibitionist or anything. Heh heh... mooned an archmage. If it is an archmage.

A great line from Morningstar when she decided to forego the midnight service in the temple of Ell, and hold one back at the Greenhouse instead:

"Well, okay. We'll hold one at home instead. But in order to simulate the sisters of my temple, you guys have to promise to be rude and snub me."

 

[Quartermoon]

"Dranko!" says Ernie. "Put your pants on this minute."

"I'm mooning Cranchus," Dranko explains.

"Blinding him, more like," mutters Grey Wolf.

I laughed so hard I scared the cats away.

Hey, isn't it about time plans began for a certain wedding?

As always, a wonderful story hour! I think we all have a good guess at a bit of what's coming next, and I'm certainly looking forward to it. You and PirateCat certainly have the knack for arousing curiosity and suspense.

Update or not, this storyhour belongs on the first page.

So, I'm curious. What do you think is coming next?

 

[Waylander the Slayer]

So, I'm curious. What do you think is coming next?

Here is my guess:

1. Aravis finds out that there is no such thing as the Crossers Maze. It is just the fantasy equivalent of prozac for insane mages.

2. Dranko learns that the "scrying eyes" belong to Parathol Runecarver. Unfortunately for Dranko, PR has a fetish for hairy half orc booties.

3. Eddings quits because he has secretly been in love with Morningstar and just can not stand the fact that Dranko is getting married to her

4. Parathol turns out to be Abernathy.

5. Dranko has his tongue stuck to PR after trying to lick him during combat. PR's extensive studies on the company had prepared him well for this dastardly strategy; and he LIKES it.

 

[Caliber]

I'm suprised you didn't pick up on all the hints that Parthol is the one with the tongue attack.

Sagiro’s Story Hour, Part 169

“In order for Aravis to use the Crosser’s Maze, he had to tap directly into the life energies of the Archmagi. I’m afraid that the… strain… was extreme. As a result of that use of our power, all of us… all of the Archmagi… are extremely weakened. Although we still retain our knowledge and experience, we have lost the power that we once had.”

“As weak as us?” Ernie cannot help but ask.

Salk looks at him sadly.

“Much. Weaker.”

Aravis goes pale.

I can still hear morningstar's player as she says, "You broke the Arch Mages!"

a friendly bump

So a pirate(cat) walks into a bar. The bartender says, "Hey, it looks like you've got a steering wheel attached to your crotch!"

The pirate(cat) replies, "Arrr, it's driving me nuts!"

Bump ba bump cha!
