The Oddestsey

Magical weapons Alex? The exquisite blade (second on the swords page) is actually the one that Sarah holds now, Kidbored designed it for her for the rpgs i have her in, though it is uncharmed for now, so id be looking for someone to etch a rune on the blade though Sarah could do this herself with the equipment and after levelling up a couple times i guess and id probably be looking for that Elven Bow, lets go fight people and get money and exp...just not Berenhotep, we have as much chance of survivng right now as we do surviving eating two slices of Dwarf bread with four of Dibblers unnamed parts sausages as the filler :p (practically imposible, that was a Discworld reference btw)

i know that, i do own every single discowrld book and have read most of them twice yknow?

Besides you lot are leaning towards the fantasy end a bit so im probably going to put in more sci fi stuff and surreal thingamies

Alex...read my post regarding the clay, could do with feedback on that :p

And the discworld thing was aimed at none discworld readers, i know you do own the books :p

I vote we go off the Navigator first off. Once hes dead, or run away from us, Doomforall should be able to sense what Berenhotep is up to.

Ok, sounds good. Seconded. If we do kill it, we get exp :p

Oh yes. For those of us who havent read any of the Dune series:

Navigators are a group of individuals who use a drug called melange or spice, to gain the ability to see into the future. They are used as Navigators for the Spacing Guild, as they are able to forsee any dangers to the ship, and so plot a safe route accordingly.

Watched the Dune movie, i know all that...they didnt seem them losing to Muadib though did they? :p

No, but in the second Dune book some conspiriters used the shielding ability of a Navigator to keep their meetings secret from Mauddib :P

@tom:

*looks around* Public university, my friend.

*Looks around* All I can see from here is Pub.....

Aaron, Tom, quit the schoolyard bickering and just make a damn decision, dont make me kill you :p

*Clubs Chris with a copy of PhotoShop 5.5*
Thats it....
I vote we kill the annoying half-blood! Then go to the Tavern and down some ale!

I want to talk with some more of the lords, talking to only two of them is not enough!

The brain gives a suggestion, the psychic field that is very strong in this area could allow him to teleport you to any two of the lords other than Berenhotep and Doomforall to talk to them, it does not have the power to do more than 2 however so choose wisely.

Id suggest we first visit the neutral Lord who doesnt commonly meddle in the others affiars, we would get a less biased view from him.

As for the other Lord, i dont fancy meeting that heffin barbarian and im not too keen on the priate either. Out of the two gilrs i think.

Anyways, thats my thoughts.

Id go with the neutral old dude.

Old guy for me.

a descision! omg!

Ill put it up later

All the Lord pics are up cept the girl.

A sudden burst of psychic energy engulfs the party and they find themselves in the grounds of a perucliar building. The grounds are lush and fertile, however the main buildign is perculiar in the extreme, it is larger than the largest skyscraper but made otu of a single piece of red sandstone, but formed in a way that makes in look like a combinaion of a termite mound and a honeycomb. A figure steps out of the shadows behind them, and the beam of a lgihtsaber blcosk their view of his face. Then he lowers it, as if havign read your minds.

I have been expectign you, but what do you expect of me? Ask your questions mortal ones
said Mernon Roh

Id like to ask him:

1) Should we trust either Doomforall or Berenhotep?

2) Would he assist us in closing the rifts?

3) If Berenhotep or his allies try to stop us, is there a way for us to overcome them, not necesarily through fighting

4) How can we get home once all the rifts are sealed?

5) How much does he want for the sweet-ass lightsabre?

Mernon Roh looks concerned for a minute, opens his mouth but hesitates and then continues...

You shouldnt trust either fully, both twist words and realities to their own ends, but Doomforalls intentions have always been honourable to my knowledge, although he manipulates others to gain ends they do not see.

I will aid you in holding off any of the creatures of the rift, but I will not directly go against any of the other lords until all the rifts are closed, then I shall see, but all Lords cause great disturbances in the force, to what ends I cannot see

Without outside assistance there are few ways to hold off the alleis of Berenhotep, you could enter the grounds of one of the other lords and they would be unwilling to create a direct confrotnation, there is one being outside the rift who could crush them as they were insect, but he will find you if the time is right If you where skileld you could use Hang Wyus principle to prevent yourself from harm, tho I doubt your minds would survive it.

Once you have passed through the redash Mu effect with catapult you back to your own worlds, assumign you preform this within 60 days of today

He raises his eyebrows at this lats comment, if you wish to becoem a jedi I can put you on the path, but beyond that it is up to you

Lets hear a bit more about this Jedi training...

Otherwise, Im going with whatever the majority is going with. Sorry, but Im starting to get confused (its the maths revision, I tell thee) :proud:

Ok, weve heard from both Doomforall and Berenhotep,weve heard from a neutral guy, now one of the allies, i dont fancy meeting no pirate or barbarien and Doomforalls girl might be more than a little biased, the snake woman (cant remember her name off hand) only slightly faviurs Doomforall if i remember, also she talkes with one of Berenhoteps allies, might be interesting to talk to her.

Oh, and Frank, the craft of a lightsaber is one of the last things a Jedi does before graduation.

Im expecting the other lords will only bulk up Berenhoteps or Doomforalls arguments, so Id rather go on to the next rift. I am interested in this being pointed the right way, however:)

Oh, and Prof? Youre evil. Forget it :P

Mernon looks the proffessor up and down, I see that there is great evil in you, yet from you must come great good or all will be to nothing, i shall set you on the path, but whether you follow it will be up to you...

Steve gains basic force insight

Woohoo! :)

*swishes cloak dramatically*

The Force is strong in this one. Heh, always wanted to say that. :proud:

final descision?

Ok, i think we have three choices, see another lord, fight the navigator (who has probably run away now anyway) or go to the next rift, i think we need to leave this one for now.

I would like to take a moment to meditate and hopefully gain some foresight (check my wish) on what we may meet at the next rift but for now, that is my vote.

The group sit down around Mernon, discussing their plans in the open grass. Suddenly a shot rigns out from nowhere, Mernon draws his lightsabre and the rest of the group dive for cover, but it is too late for Rasputus, a gunshot wound is through the back of his head spilling his rocky braisn all over the party. They look up and see a thin figure upon a slender white chinese dragon suspecded far in the sky, then realisign they have been seen the dreagon darts off quicker than the eye can follow.

Mernon excamines the bullet

Sniper bullet, a very good shot too, Id probably only just get that one, its in the minds eye blind spot too

with this development what will you do...

hmm, we got a free agent here? Perhaps the brain knows.

I would like to ask the brain if anyone in this world is known for flying a Chinese Dragon.

Keep the bullet for Steve to examine and me to replicate using alchemy and my flintlock. Anything that can blow a guys head apart from that distance HAS to be good for the revolvers.

As for the guy who just shot Rasputus, I go with Chris- use the brain.

Anything that can blow a guys head apart from that distance HAS to be good for the revolvers.

Pardon my technicalism, but revolvers have short barrels, they are no good for shooting anything with accuracy over 50m, you guys need to make a 1m long Barret .50 Cal Sniper Rifle to match this guy.

I also have another idea. With the science know how of Tom and Prof. we could make a railgun, using Electric Frank as our 150000v power pack to launch pieces of metal at terminal velocity, plasmerising anything in its path.

I was referring to the hardness of the bullet to take that much air resistance and still be able to tear Rasputus apart.

And then use said bullets in our railgun. XD

I like Aarons plan:)

1) I agree, ask the brain.

2) Id like to rummage around in my pockets for a sniper rifle.

The brain throbs for a few insants, and then exclaims

I honestly cannot determien the soruce of this figure, they are not an entry to this word, as I would have sensed their coming into existance, but conversely they are not in the command of any of the lords, ergo they are not one of either Lord parties. Additionally I sense soemthign else, they are what was when I was human known as a ftheglar-nem which in its most basic terms means that fate does not apply t them, and they can change those of others, with this persons involvement nothing is certain, and thats not even certain

The group try to conisder the implications of this whiel Frank rummages his pockets, he manages to find the laminated eye of a bald eagle, a live excitable female golden lion tamarin and in a stoke of luck what appears to be a windup green double ended lgihtsabre

Nice one:) What are the weight/power stats for the lightsabre?

lightsabre - damage potentional 0 - 3400
not bad eh?

can cut throguh anything bar the following -

rift matter, lightsabre blade, mirrormetal, forcefields, mithril, octiron, adamant, dragon skin (from a dragon of a colopur which corresponds to that of the blade) leviathan flesh, also Doomforall, Berenhotep, Seluni and Mernon will be immune

weights 3, one revolvution of the bar gives one second of activity

Sweet. Id like to suggest a triple-tech. I activate and throw the lightsabre at an enemy, Chris and Aaron use their psychic-ness to slice it up and make a mess, then return it to me:)

Consider them sliced Frank ;)
