"Meh, dead bullywug. Who care? We go kill lizard."

"Meh, me see lots dead bodies before." (shrug)

"Hey, Stiggy, me think him maybe drink more than you last night."

I think so - time to meet our new party members.

"He did?" <burp> "OK, we go kill lizards, we see dad, get reward, then kill him. Me no see Jane long time. Me miss Jane." <yawn> "Jane, she smell nice...." <zzzzz>

"After we kill lizardmen, then we kill dad?"

"Meh, me no see nothing weird. Except Iron Rabbit s!!~ - him very weird.

Quoteth the pot to the kettle.

Yes, these are some strange dealing we are having in this abode.

"You see talking kettle and pot? Yeah, they weird too."

"Meh, me no see nothing weird. Except Iron Rabbit S#~* - him very weird.

"We finish here now we kill hobbo? Me still want to kill dad. Maybe we win him wife for Deaf and Blind. Hee hee!"

"Me say we kill her! She ugly!"

On the elf/wolf: Right hand attacks: To hit: 7 + 11 = 18, 7 + 11 = 18, 17 + 6 = 23; damage (in the same order) = 4 + 6 = 10, 4 + 6 = 10, 4 + 6 = 10. Left hand attacks: 5 + 11 = 16, 4 + 6 = 10 = miss. Damage = 3 + 3 + 3 = 9.

I'm a little confused about position - can I 5' step to get to the hag next round?

"Heh heh...."

Rage on! Charging to O21 and attacking the elf. Attack = 8 + 2 for charge + 11 = 21. Damage = 3 + 6 = 9.

"BLEEAAAAARRRGH!"

Given that Elgan and the other elf are both claiming to be in O22, I assume Elgan is probably in N22? Otherwise I just hit the nearest elf. Once a goblin, always a goblin.....

The elf laughs at the hobbit:

"what are YOU going to do? A fat dwarf and a dinky?"

"OK, Stiggy - you kill hobbo, me kill smartarse elf."

Really nice map - even the colour scheme is pleasing. Put Gittik at O13 for his (double) move.

"Feathers? Dammit!"

"Hee hee!"

Those of us older and wiser take our time, we like to romance it little bit, get to know it, then seduce it with sweet words and tender caresses. For the youngsters, it is straight in and straight out.

What about those who like to 'shake it all about'?

But you need to have put it in and out several times by then, which proves my point (kind of).

"Better be careful about where we land our blows, in case we hit the little guy."

"No, me OK."

AoO = 12 + 11 = 23, damage = 2 + 4 = 6. Full attack: scimitar = 13 + 9 = 22, damage = 3 + 4 =7; scimitar 2 = 3 + 4 = miss; kukri = 2 + 9 = 11 = miss, kukri 2 = 5 + 4 = miss.

Start at S9, tumble to P7, attack Rex.

Tumble check = 10 + 9 = 19. Attack with scimitar = 4 + 11 = 15 = likely miss, damage = 2 + 4 = 6.

Jane's singing that Sheena Easton song.

"My baby takes the morning train...."

Not that one?

Gittik grins maniacally. "True challenge! Gittik slay dragon and bring back heart for Jane so we can feast!"

(I'm on the train so I can't give a position yet.)

"Stupid goat."

"Hee hee! Beetle Boy have new friend!"

"Troll? Where troll?" <blades sweep from scabbards>

"Blech! You no eat Gittik!" He slashes at the hungry shubbery.

There's one orc, amongst the hobgoblins.

He seems to be in charge of pies.

"Me kill him, take pie?"

"Should we stay on or off the path? I was thinking we might want to stay off it and follow the wall going north."

The ghoul said the chapel was at the north end of the garden, right? Is it still with us, BTW?

"OK, me know lots about sneaking in forest. You follow me, walk slow, look where you put foot, weapon out, ear open. We go."

Gittik draws his weapons, nods grimly at his fellow bravos, steps into the undergrowth and trips over a projecting root.

Eventually Gittik wakes up.

"Oh, me see very strange things whne me drink kitty brew. I looked in the sky, where an elephant's eye was looking at me from a bubblegum tree. And all that I knew was the hole in my shoe that was letting in water (letting in water). Me no even wear shoes.

"But me feel more powerful now, somehow. So remember - if strange cat give you something strange to drink, and him say it good - just say yes."

OK, cool - I've levelled Gittik but I can add the rage points too.

Yes, I have it (not on me, though - I'm at my parents' today).

"Hee hee! Talking lizard badger.... thing...."

Actually the odoriferous emanations you are inhaling are scented more along the lines of a pheromonal excretion possibly used to display the general mood of a feline. It may communicate a certain attitude or mood to the group, I would guess they are getting anxious or angered if I was to put forth a hypothesis. Quite a large number of mammals use scent marking and musky emanations to convey a wide range of moods ranging from sexual arousal to fear.

"Why me never understand what you say? Stupid witchdoctor..."

"Ah, Gittik, it's just milk... With some magic added, obviously. My best guess is that it'll initially make you somewhat sick, but, if you're tough enough, it will then make you stronger and faster. It might give you visions or something like that, too." He looks around, noticing the electric atmosphere. "It's probably a test as well; they still doubt you killed the Amber. By drinking the Hero Brew, you can prove you're that tough."

"Oh, so it booze? Why them no say?"

Gittik downs the stuff in one gulp.

'Scuse me while I kiss the sky....

"Hey, it smell weird in here. What kitties say?"

"Stiggy, you so wise."

"But maybe me ask beetle boy before we kill all them. Him wise too, in different way."

"What you think? Me drink, or we kill all big kitties instead?

"Or Gittik fer tha' matter. A few moor wee choppers wouldn't hurt."

"No! Only one Gittik! Or they all want Jane, and me have to kill all them!"

"Gittik; the shaman has brewed Hero's Milk, a gift to us from the Old Mountain Gods. Only the battlehard are allowed it. I have never drank it myself...it is a great honor."

Gittik feels all the eyes of the catmen on him at once; their hair bristling in some anticipation.

<suspicious> "What it do?"

"Um... The young buck wants a piece of Gittik, some crap about testing his strength, I guess. The boss is having none of it, and he sounds happy about us capping Jag-Doom. I guess we're safe for tonight."

"Which one want kill me. Maybe me kill him first? Me have new trick with kukri, him no like. Heh heh heh...."

"Heh heh... The big fellow thinks Gittik is a baby human..."

"WHA'!" <grumble>

"You mean 'Tache Man? Me kill him - was easy!" Gittik puffs out his chest boastfully.

By the way, happy for Elgan to have my Ring of Protection +1.

Thought it was +6 - it's in the Spell Compendium, and possibly Complete Arcane or Complete Mage.

I'll have the nice kukri. +2 Ring of Protection might be nice too, but I don't want to be greedy.

"Heh heh heh...."

Just thought I'd point out that Gittik's hasted, so he hits ACs 26 and 19. Also, he has one more attack.

Oh, thank you, I didn't realise. Second attack with scimitar - roll to hit = nat 20, confirm = 19 + 1 + 10 = 30. Damage = 2 + 2 + 12 = 16.

"Heh heh....."

"Now you MAKE ME MAAAAAD!!!!"

Rage on. Attack the Amber with the scimitar, have at the hobbo with the kukri. Roll to hit with scimitar = 15 + 10 = 25, damage = 2 + 6 = 8. Roll to hit with kukri = 8 + 10 = 18, damage = 1 + 3 = 4.

Tell me when it's time to get up and do my thing! Like a sex machine!

Attack with scimitar = 15 + 8 = 23, damage = 4 + 4 = 8. Attack with kukri = 17 + 8 = 25, damage = 3 + 2 = 5. All on 'Tache Man.

"Him have hippopotamus? Where?"

Especially the guy with no legs. Who really did have legs. (Wrong damn avatar before.)

Full attack on Mr Tache, not raging yet. Scimitar = 18 + 8 = 26, crit confim = 6 + 8 = 14 (unlikely), damage = 3 + 4 = 7. Attack with kukri = 13 + 8 = 21, damage = 1 + 2 = 3.

"Everyone want to kill me all time. Nothing new."

Bog off, dragon, we have a discussion thread for stuff like this. You are ruining Heathy's flow.

Double move to F1.

"Hello, silly 'tache man. Maybe me kill you now."

Gittik looks round. "Where this all before? Me no see in swamp. This bad magic. Me need more brandy."

He looks at the door. "What up there?"

"Ooooo! Much bigger in here than on outside. How they fit all this in here? Me no like this place, lots of bad magic. Me say we go and - oh, brandy, nice." <slurp>
