Your statement is flawed this is not area designated pond.

Co2 and thermal regulation are not within parameters for plant based life

It's too late. All you guys can do is hope that KC's boost to the crystals are enough!

*Dives for cover*

...
This is not good. We need to regain control over KC's phylactery.

question is your spell more powerful then say the kobolds?

*Glares at spirit of Tribble (not the actual demon, since it's still trapped at the moment*

Not. You shall never beat KC's spell. His power is one you cannot hope to comprehend.

Crap. KC has done something very risky. He sacrificed all his power to trap the Great Tribble, and the Tribble Lord may be weakened, but...he can still beat Kobold Cleaver.

Ummm...missed. A lot.

Heh heh....that stinger wasn't just wound poison. It was also digested poison.

Ha, ha! Get them, fleas!

When used insincerely.

Not completely.

Isn't mimicry one of the sincerest forms of flattery?

Exactly. And flattery is one of the most obvious preparations for betrayal.

Wow. Even our hanger-ons are fighting over turf. We must be becoming even more popular.

Yap! Yap!

Nah, I just don't like him because he's ripping off my idea.

The irritating mosquito ponders for a moment.

"Some many poodles, but which one to land on?"

Ha! I was here first, bloodybag! That'll teach ya!

You fools! Leave the poodle alone, he is but a poodle, and not intelligent enough to know better! He is a Lord of the Boards, you have no chance! If he turns to violence, you will all die!

The wasp turns to the poodle.
Get the hell out of here!

The kittens ignore the wasp and use the same maneuver.

Poodles, it is only a matter of time before the Jacks come back! They may be idiots, but they've beat you before and will beat you again.

Thank the gods....
Alright, Kittens, leave the poodle alone. The Jacks are a formidable enemy, and JRHM and JH will return when the Pony Stalker is gone. You need to get out of here.

The wasp flies in, to see the kittens divebombing Courtfool.
Guys, you're in danger! The Jacks are gonna come after you! Retreat to the untitled!

The wasp, lagging behind, hears the threat and flies to warn the kittens.

Sadly, it looks like the Lemmings are going to go extinct after all.

I'm here. What is it that you want?

We're discussing an alliance. The Pigeons are less than eager.

I'm here to represent Kobold Cleaver. He will be a bit late.
He has decided that it is time to call a meeting, to consider a truce. Or, more likely, an alliance.
Is there a Jack here? They should have representation. As should the thieves. For both groups have become involved.

ayup.

Oh, I have every idea. This is war, Jacks. If you're going to take a side, expect consequences.
I regret having to shoot Llamafrog, but if I get caught, then the Pigeons win. I didn't make an enemy of the Jacks, the Jacks made an enemy out of me.

You attacked the Guildhouse a few days ago. That's when the war started. You will now face the wrath of the Jacks. You and your new oddball allies will be annihilated or assimilated into Jacks.

Look, you weirdo fanatics, the war didn't 'start' there. It had been brewing for ages. KC hasn't explained to us yet when, because he doesn't know. He does, however, know that it 'started' shortly after the end of the Profile War. The Pigeons are up to something very bad, from our perspective: They are trying to remove Kobold Cleaver from the Boards. I know that none of you like him, but he's not going quietly. People are going to be caught in the crossfire. Whether you all like it or not.

*Flies in*
Look, KC did what he had to. It's your own faults for sending Llamafrog in the first place.

DC 20 for being controlled seems a bit steep for the first save. Makes me wonder how the hell Frodo withstood it for so long to say nothing of Bilbo. DC 10 or 15 would be better. Unless you add in something so that halflings get a bonus to the save since it seems they are more resistant than most.

Good point. How's this:

The ring is easier to resist for some. Depending how you begin possession of the ring, it can be a bit safer:
If the subject begins his ownership with pity when it would be more sensible to simply kill them, he gains a +5 to his save. Should he begin it when he knows what it is, and that it is evil (assuming he is not)he gets a +6. If the subject has never killed an intelligent creature before, he gains an additional +2. These effects stack. This is because the ring is completely alien to pity or innocence.

See? Note that Borimeer was a fighter, so he was too combat centered to really have a decent will save. Plus, he probably killed before. Bilbo, on the other hand, had never killed an intelligent creature in his life. Remember, also, that halflings get an additional +1 to their save. Thus, assuming that Bilbo was a 1st-level rogue (of course he leveled up later)with average ability scores, he would get a +11 to his save. Smeagul, on the other hand, began his ownership with killing his brother. Ouch. Plus, I think that the ring sorta did control him, at least in the later years. He was pretty unwilling, wasn't he? But for the sake of Frodo, he gave it up. Perhaps i need to include a bonus if you wish to give it up for a loved one's sake. Hmm.
