The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

This is a high level rules light game set in a school for magical kids, kinda a mash-up of Soul Eater, Harry Potter, and X-Men. :)

Nice - Krays knocked that one out of the park!

Honor System applies - anybody making a DC 20 Perception check (the DC would normally be 25, but it is lowered because image is everything to students of this age, for better or worse...) I'll post it in a moment.

"Yea were going to lunch. What did Nala want with you?" He asks as they join them to the cafeteria.


BPs: 32/32 :: Status: Unharmed :: Dodge 18; Soak 21

Well, if Spin felt something blocking his abilty to mimic... well, anything he'd be curious to knwo why.
Perception 1d20 + 12 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 12 + 4 = 26; tacking on a +4 for experiencing the difference before looking. :)

Spin, shooting glances over at Fei, responds to Asch, "I don't know. She came and talked to me earlier, too, but Mr. S. interrupted. She thanked me for helping the Jelly kid, but she was trying to mess with my head. Like.. literally... she did something but it didn't work on me."

In between bites of lunch...and she's not staring at Fei exactly...

Perception: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (13) + 20 = 33


BPs: 32/32 :: Status: Unharmed :: Dodge 18; Soak 21

He then sits across from Ephebe and Nasima, smiling at both of them, "Thanks for helping me out back in the shower room, 'Phebs. Did you see how I totally went all primal on that ooze? well.. ya know.. before we knew he was a good kid."

"Oh my, does she fancy herself an enchantress...? And I've been able to fear her twice. Tsk."

Looks up from his food with a sinisterly comical grin, then looks at Spin
"Oh, that reminds me. I've tasked her with getting me replacement eyeballs that her 'son' ate. She may drop by to deliver them."

Spoiler:
As you think about what just happened, you take a closer look at the new student. While some tend to be better groomed than others, Fei seems to have taken it to a fastidious extreme, even for a monk. Everything about him - clothes, books, papers - is in perfect order. His dark hair is tied into a long ponytail, but not a single hair is out of place (despite the avatar image - best I could do from my choices). His features are exactly symmetrical, in perfect proportion with each other. It's as if he's 'just right', for lack of a better term...iconic even.

[EDIT]: And in game mechanics terms...

Spoiler:
Think something along the line of the old axiomatic or paragon templates from 3.5, and that would be on-target.

She smiled shyly at him. "You're welcome. And that's pretty much what I do, keep other people in fighting shape."

"And yeah, you were totally awesome. You're really good at transformations," she added admiringly.

"I'd watch out for her....she seems odd cold somehow." Asch says as he twirls a butter knife between his fingers. "Also what was goin on with you in the gym before the shadow tag?"

"Wait, she did what??? That b#&!*!" Ephebe looks really angry, her eyes switching over to their draconic appearance as she fights to get her anger under control. She knew she was overreacting even if it was Nala. She had to keep these instincts under control...she had to...

Asch's comment to Spin was like a bucket of cold water, instantly bringing her back to reality. Oh. Yeah. Maybe she should find somewhere else to be for a couple of minutes...give the guys a chance to talk...


Male Kobold (Adult Black dragon) Gestalt Sorceror/Oracle Necromancer; Champion of Death

Looks with concern to Ephebe
"Peace, Ephebe. I believe I can keep her away from Spin. Or at least away from me and anyone I'm around."
Looks at Asch
"Something happened?"

Vakkler enters the cafeteria, once again carrying Slarrow.

Boggard:
"Did the nasty little kitty attack you? Yes it did!"

He notices the students, but pays them no heed. The kobold instead goes and gets a very large helping of each dish (by non-weredragon standards). He sits at a table and begins nibbling at the food.

"If you decide to try anything...." Asch says as a smoky blade slides out of his palm then disappearing like smoke in the wind. "...then you have our help." As he finishes his eyes glow crimson red.


Imagefemale weredragon (amethyst) gestalt Soulknife17/oracle10/divine gunslinger7

"Ummmm....you know, I think I need some more lasagna. Be back in a minute."

Spin:

Spoiler:
::You can tell them if you want. I already talked things through with 'Sima, so she already knows about...about my imprinting on you...so I don't mind if you want to talk it over yourself...::

Vakkler looks up and glares.


Dressed for success in a suitably drab replica of his now-destroyed janitor's uniform, Mr. S takes a break from his duties to munch a sandwich at a corner table while watching the bustling students. Some students, such as Fei attract more attention than others.

Ruji flies by Slarrow and hisses a warning before taking back to the rafters. His tail twitches back and forth in agitation.. or is it anticipation?

"Cats. Ridiculous creatures."


BPs: 32/32 :: Status: Unharmed :: Dodge 18; Soak 21

Spin watches Ephebe walk away, not sure how to respond to Asch's question. I don't even know what to think of all this yet… much less what to think to tell others…

"Um. It was nothing, really… just caught me by surprise. I made a joke. It struck a nerve for 'Phebs… what can I say? I have a talent for pushing people's buttons."

The Sense Motive DC to pick this up would be 41, but that's ridiculous, so…
While the young shapeshifter apparently can lie like he can breathe, he seems to be holding something back. The look of discomfort gives him away. He looks around for something to change the subject, his eyes falling on the janitor in the corner, "Hey, Mr. S! Waht's goin on? So was our friend the Jelly boy the thing you were chasing the other night all over the school?"

[EDIT The Second]: And since I left Spin hanging back up there due to erasing something by mistake...argh. (O.o)

Spin:

Spoiler:
The best analogy I can give is that no matter how good a copy of an original is, it still isn't the original. That's why you can't 'spin' into a perfect likeness of Fei.

*gives Spin a significant look*

sympathetic, not angry or anything like that


BPs: 32/32 :: Status: Unharmed :: Dodge 18; Soak 21

Spin just catches 'Sima's look, and grins back weakly... giving a shrug.

blink blink
"That doesn't sound so serious...?"
Sees Nasima's look
"Umm...I'm definately missing something...but that's ok. I don't need to know everything..."
Goes back to eating


F Sylph

"It's definitely not something to worry about, Krays, I'm sure it'll come out on its own eventually. News has a way of doing that. For now, we've all got plenty of other things to worry about."

"Which, say, speaking of other things; isn't that snipe hunt thing tonight? Asch and Spin, are you still doing that? Are you gonna be a team?" The sylph looks at the shadowy dhampir. "No offense, Asch, but you don't strike me really as a 'team-player' kinda guy, necessarily. I'd peg you for a darkhorse. Pun intended." She gives him a teasing smirk.

I failed mine...didn't see this post. It's just not my day today... (;_;)

"That hurts Sima." Asch says as he puts a hand to his heart as if wounded. "Amada and myself were going to make a team. And of course any of you who are competing can join us. Just when ever the fighting starts just be careful I have a habit of losing control. As most of you just saw in the locker room."


F Sylph

Nasima giggles. "That would have been my next guess, Asch; that you and Amada would be a team. Or start a team." Her brow furrows. "Amada, are...are you a fighter, too? I don't think I've seen or heard about you engaging in any combat -- or whatever the heck ends up being involved in this snipe hunt -- that didn't involve Asch-correcting." She winks at the other girl, still joking, but honestly curious about her involvement in the upcoming event.


Under the table hangs a certain purple crystal, tranmitting the entire conversation that involves the Snipe Hunt...

Vakkler keeps eating.


Male Pygmy Slurk

Distracted, the kobold does not notice Slarrow hop down and head to Nasima's table.


F Sylph

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29

Seeing a familiar, hopping white figure, Nasima turns. "Aww, it's the slurk from before!" Can't remember if 'Sima learned Slarrow's name, but it seems unlikely. "Hang on, fella!" The sylph jogs coltishly over to the food line and gets a small tray of meaty goodies that she knows Slarrow will eat, remembering her throw-food-at-the-slurk experiments from yesterday. Returning, she plunks down lotus-style on the floor and proceeds to toss little food bits to the slimy beast. "Not too many now! Just this batch. Don't want you to get all fat in a bad way. Won't be able to defend yourself or get prey when you finally get big enough to do that."


Male Pygmy Slurk

Slarrow goes through the same hunting routine as before on each piece of meat. The slurk glances above every few seconds.

After following the other students into the cafeteria, watching the shapechanger Spin's metamorphosis into some semblance of himself, and the subsequent somber change in conversation that did not seem to involve him, Fei quietly excuses himself and makes his way to the cafeteria line to find some sustenance.

Upon collecting servings of rice, vegetables, fish and chicken, he finds a (relatively) quiet table in the sun to sit down and eat. The warm glow is refreshing as he methodically cleans his plate.


"I'm not a fighter, but I am a gunmage as well." She says as she lays a caster on the table that matches Asch's expect where his is blacks, grays, and red hers is mithrial. "I specialize in divinatory magic as well as conjury and enchantments."


F Sylph

"Huh? What is it you're looking at, fella?"

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13 I reckon there's no way a 13 Perception will allow me to spot a cat that doesn't wanna be spotted. LOL.

Peering up, Nasima doesn't see anything besides rafters and dust. Heh. I suppose not even Mr. Sinh can clean the rafters, not that I'd put it past him. Tossing another piece of meat over behind a table, forcing the slurk to hunt a little more for it, 'Sima says "I dunno what you see up there, little slimy guy. Nothin' up there but dust and maybe some flies. Or is that what you see?" Heh. I suppose that would make sense.

'Sima's eyes go wide. "Ohhhhhh...I get it. So, um, if I can ask, you, uh, you two have...uh, done...battle? Before? Somewhere?"

Ephebe comes back to the table with an industrial size pan of lasagna (to match the seven empty pans on the table behind her) and happily goes back to eating. One of the boys at the table over looks a bit nauseous from watching her eat.

"Lasagna's my favorite." ^.^

"If you are asking if we have had to fight before, then yes. We are no stranger to violence. When your father is a known Vampire Lord who enjoys torturing his victims people tend to pin the sins of the father on the son. Especially humans..." Asch says simply growing quiet at the end.

Realizing the janitor is happy where he is, Spin sits back down, "I'll be in the hunt as well. Be glad to team up with whoever, really. Long as we can have some fun.. and hopefully take down a few other students, at least."

"Oh if your with us I plan on taking more than just a few I plan on winning."


"Looks like we've got some interesting competition, don't we? Spin is going to be interesting to watch. Have you picked the third member of our little group?"


"Yes, the same one as the last time actually. The others didn't want anything to do with this particular Hunt for some reason."

Personally, I've see you can't be a mascot. Unfortunately, I saw your fight with Ruji, and I can't say I was impressed with either of you... So mascot is the best you're gonna get(for now).
