Vladula's clearly delusional, I mean he thinks Mauve and Nikose are a couple!

I just wanted to make it clear just how big a jerk he is. Do you hate him yet? His vampire cheatiness renders the old fallback of hitting things until they die ineffective! Fortunately, he's an idiot.

Finally, I've been wanting to do something like that for a werewolf joke for some time. I'm living the dream!

Nikose Tyris · 08-20-2007, 09:05 AM

Hell, She wears Mauve, I wear Dark Orchid, I can see how the mistake could be made.

Also, I sincerely hope I have at least wounded his pride.

Arhra · 08-23-2007, 10:49 PM

Taking advantage of his vulnerability to drama? Good thinking!

Myself, I'm attempting to accomplish as little as possible. I really can't take much of a role against puzzle enemies, seeing I was the one to invent the thing in the first place.

One little note about his abilities list though: Vampires lie.

Nikose Tyris · 08-23-2007, 11:16 PM

Arhra, I'm having fun, but if you don't play this joke all the way out, I'm afraid I may throw a tantrum. XDD This is my favourite joke with Nikose. just have him ask about "The magic of 23?" in a curious tone. I beg of you.

Arhra · 08-24-2007, 06:41 AM

Well, I am partial to begging.

That and I'm happy to be able to do things like that for people. It's the point of being a GM after all!

Sooo, any questions anyone?

Nikose Tyris · 08-27-2007, 12:48 PM

Hawk:

That was stupid. Vampire cheatiness will protect him.

Now, if he had LUNGED at me, and I had caped him over the head and let him throw his own ass in the fire, there would have been style points.

Flarecobra · 08-28-2007, 04:46 PM

How about to try to force him backward, I ensnare his legs and reduice if not take away his foot speed avantage.......or while I'm at it, try to keep him busy trying to get me off of him.

Arhra · 08-31-2007, 08:48 AM

I did consider having that end the fight, but decided the downside of such an anticlimax was greater than the upside. I prefer having several people involved in the victory too.

You're right about fire being good against vampires. Its simply the problem of Vladula's cheatiness making it hard to hit him with things like fire spells. Same with most attacks really.

While Arhra quite obviously is bad at transforming into a ravening wolf beast, yes, vampires can't heal injuries a werewolf inflicts. Obviously, getting a good hit is hard much like fire.

Now, if we had some sort of proper werewolf, it would triumph in an orgy of vampire dismemberment seeing it would be just as empowered by crazy fanboy logic as the vampire. This applies to any really awesome anti-vampire thing.

The more you know.

EDIT: Oh yes, while I think of it: as an alternative for Hydra's actions, I was seriously considering having her try and get Gina infected with lycanthropy. Slapping was pretty hard to resist though.

Nikose Tyris · 08-31-2007, 09:11 AM

Okay, this might work. If it does, Cool, Nikose will be getting a lot of odd looks.

For any out of character Actions Nikose is taking, I promise to explain more in a bit.

And here we go for Shadow Temple boss.

Name: Caryatid of Shadow, Guardian of the Shadow Seal
Class: Boss
Appearance: With the slow breakdown of the one purpose it exists for and Chaos running rampant throughout the Temple, the Caryatid has gone quite, quite mad. A ebon skinned figure, the Caryatid's main ornament is a white mask. Her form seems oddly ill defined.
Abilities/weapons:
Imposition of Law - Shadow Void: The Temple corrupted near ot the breaking point, it has split into two dimensions. Coexisting with the normal Temple is a twisted shadow world, its toxic atmosphere nourishing to the shade creatures. The Caryatid exists in both worlds simultaneously and can open portals between the dimensions. It appears as a sucking void of utter darkness in the normal Temple and as a ball of light in the dark echo.
Hungry Darkness: The shadows bow to the Caryatid's will. With the vague definition of what exactly the shadow element is, the Caryatid can use an array of powers, including illusions, the manipulation of 'shadowstuff' and creating nightmarish creatures from the darkness.
Body of Night: The Caryatid is composed of tenebrous shadow cast in a solid form. She is tenacious, malleable form closing up after even the worst of injuries and moves with the shifting fleetness of swaying shadows.

Name: Shadow Doppelganger
Class: It's you
Appearance: It's you, if you were all shadowy
Abilities/weapons: It's you
Also, they have minor shadowy powers. Oh, and they want to kill you, so as to steal your identity and your life.

Battle is Death By Chocolate, rating info can be found here if needed.

Basically, the shadow doubles will pair off with their counterpart. I'll be leaving those fights purely in your hands. When you do defeat your shadow, you might want to ask before joining in on someone else's personal battle. High tendency towards epiphanies and all that.

Caryatid will be hanging back until shadows are defeated mostly. She's weaker once you overcome your shadow.
