Evil's Return (redux) Discussion 2: Less Time, More Errors

Toastburner B · 09-22-2009, 09:33 PM

My apologizes for the lack of updates as of late. I actually had a pretty good stint at work, and the one day off I've had in the time in between was taken up by a family activity. I'll try to keep more up to date.

EDIT: I also got around to answering those PMs people sent me. Sorry it took me so long, lazy man.

While I'm thinking about it, I should mention that the Ghost-guys can't choose only one part of their body to ghost...it's all or nothing. So this means that they can't reach out from behind a wall, materialize only their fist, and punch you. They also can't fire a gun or something like that while ghosted, because the gun will be ghosted, as well, and insubstantial bullets do no harm, of course.

The obvious caveat to this rule is that they don't drop through floors unless they want to...'cause that's how ghost-physics work.

The rest of this week and next week is gonna be kinda weird for me. My work schedule is going to interfere with my Internet time so I won't be able to post on certain days. And I'm not certain as to which days because the schedule is constantly being bounced around. It shouldn't affect you all too much since ol' Toasty can pretty much take control of Pamelia as he pleases (but I'd like to get her back whole and pure, if you don't mind).

Overcast · 09-23-2009, 01:59 AM

Hmm, is it alright for me to say that Richard may see this coming? Gotta ask since it may seem rather cruel to make him walk into something I saw coming, but also a lot more keen to the kind of RP this has been so far. Cooking up a lot of hopelessness, fatigue, and plain old bad luck after all.

Toastburner B · 09-23-2009, 04:19 AM

Just as long as you don't turn "I think they're going to do this" into "I have it on good authority from a higher power that this is exactly what they are going to do and where is exactly what we can do to prevent this from happening."

Bard The 5th LW · 09-23-2009, 02:43 PM

This will be difficult for Abdul. I guess I can have him wait behind the other assassins and when the other protectors arrive he can cut the disguise and open fire on the assassins from the back-row. Although that plan is somewhat reliant on the number of assassins, and Abdul remaining silent the whole-time.

PyrosNine · 09-23-2009, 04:25 PM

If Task had gone to the McCragge Manor:

"Oh hey Pamelia, I'm your classmate and I wanted to-"

"OH GOD! Another Assassin! DEFEND ME, LOYAL BATTLE MONKEYS! GO FORTH AND BUST A CAP!"

"He's Clearly a demon! Full power!"

"I'm unloading everything I've got into you!"

"Magical attack, Go!"

"BLARGH!"

:: ERROR!::
:Synchronization lost!:
:Logging out of Terminus:

Malben: Urgh! Gah! Why did my ancestor have to suck so much?
Lucy: Admittedly, you come from a weak gene pool. But you'll have to keep trying! We need to learn the location of the Circenean artifact if we're going to stop the Templars!
Malben: Okay, but don't send me all the way back to the memory of me chasing after that damn van, because it's....
Lucy: Button press!

Task: ...Crap. I'm back in the Manor.

Pamelia: Oh god! This bullet wound stings so harsh! Man, If I had my hands on one of those Assassins, I'd show him what for! Blat! BLAT! BLAT! Gunshots! DEATH!

Task: ....

Pamelia: !

Task:

Fission Mailed!

Trish: TIME PARADOX!

Toastburner B · 09-24-2009, 11:21 PM

Yeah, in hind sight, I could of planned this encounter out better. It was supposed to be a play on the undead shadows from the first RP...but the undead shadows went after everyone, not just the people at the manor.

Teal Mage · 09-24-2009, 11:38 PM

And finally posted!

Still trying to give Lynn a personality, it's the key to my enjoying him.

Alas, easier said then done.
