"Yes, Mama, I'm fine," Chara said annoyed. "It was just a little accident. Just my hand this time."
"This is Lang Fei. He's new. And he has a monkey," she added pointing at Sun. "Umm...he's been trying to talk to the Headmaster about enrolling, but I think maybe he's supposed to talk to Mrs Blackscales instead?"
To Lang, "She has a funny name. Her scales aren't black at all, they're purple. But I think she's probably not showing her scales right now. It makes the grown-ups nervous."
"So the normal stuff won't work?" Matthias asks, a little sad. "Even Aunt Anany's normal stuff?"
"Heavy problems," he said sympathetically."We can ask Professor Sunwake to do a scan of you if you would like, if you're concerned about your continued health. But first we'll take care of that fire problem," he said, as he laid a hand on Valiste's shoulder reassuring him. "It may not feel like it, but what happened wasn't your fault. And you're not the only student at this school whose abilities manifested in ways that were deadly to others. This is a safe place for all of you."
"If it helps me understand and hopefully give me a little more control, he or she can scan me. Thank you professor" He realizes he's been holding his box under his arm the entire time, moving and setting it on a table so he doesn't damage it or its contents.
Lang looks up to Chara's mother.
he bows to her
Pleased to meet you, I must confess that I was the cause of her injury and I apologize.
Ahh... should we see Blackscales now? if not I was going to check out that ship in the new lake
"So the normal stuff won't work?" Matthias asks, a little sad. "Even Aunt Anany's normal stuff?"
"Not so far. They're still working on solutions, but until they find one that doesn't cause her even more pain than she's already experiencing, there's nothing that can be done through normal means. She could be cured completely if a way can be found around that particular problem."
"Heavy problems," he said sympathetically."We can ask Professor Sunwake to do a scan of you if you would like, if you're concerned about your continued health. But first we'll take care of that fire problem," he said, as he laid a hand on Valiste's shoulder reassuring him. "It may not feel like it, but what happened wasn't your fault.

"She. She's an...unusual person, er, sentient being? Not really sure what to call her. She's a weredragon. Once I've gotten that amulet for you, we can go see her. At the very least it will provide a baseline for the infirmary records."
Sorchan glanced at the box curiously, but didn't pry. He pulled an amulet out of a desk drawer and set it in a shallow lead box that seemed to be a permanent fixture of the desk. He spoke some strange word, a spell perhaps, and there was a flash of blinding light. He brought the amulet to Valiste.
"Here you are. This will keep your flames in check so that you won't accidentally harm anyone with them."
Lang looks up to Chara's mother.

"Well, it's good of you to be honest."
"Yes, I can take you there now, and you'll get officially enrolled. I'm not sure about that ship, though. I think that belongs to another student. You'd have to get his permission to go on it."
"She. She's an...unusual person, er, sentient being? Not really sure what to call her. She's a weredragon. Once I've gotten that amulet for you, we can go see her. At the very least it will provide a baseline for the infirmary records."

"Here you are. This will keep your flames in check so that you won't accidentally harm anyone with them."
He sputters in embarrassment "O-oh, sorry, I didn't know Professor Sunwake was a girl" he watches you take the amulet from the box and present it to him, taking it carefully "Thank you professor. If you want to know about the box, I can tell you on the way, that is actually something I am proud of" he places the amulet around his neck.
"So... we can't help then. We don't know all the magicy nah-nite stuff like you do." :(
Lang bows again to her showing her respect as a teacher/master.
Thnk you for taking me there
lang looks to Sun for approval making sure he is behaving as he was instructed before Master Hito brought him here.
With a nod of appoval they head off to see this Ms Blackscales.
He sputters in embarrassment "O-oh, sorry, I didn't know Professor Sunwake was a girl" he watches you take the amulet from the box and present it to him, taking it carefully "Thank you professor.

"Then I would be glad to hear about it. But I'm afraid I still don't know your name. I'm feeling a bit foolish having to ask now, but the longer this goes on the more embarrassing it gets," he finished with a self-deprecating smile.
As they walk.
Sun whispers to Chara
I am a baboon actually
"So... we can't help then. We don't know all the magicy nah-nite stuff like you do." :(
"The key is making it so she doesn't feel pain while the nanites work. The nanites could fix the pain problem, but she would be in intense pain while they did...see the problem? We can't fix this with nanites alone. We need to find another solution. And I promise you, we're working on it. But in the meantime, the best thing you can do for Chara is what you've already been doing. Be her friend. That means more to her than anything else."
As they walk.
Sun whispers to Chara
I am a baboon actually
"What's a baa-boo and how is it different from a monkey?" she asked, confused.
"Then I would be glad to hear about it. But I'm afraid I still don't know your name. I'm feeling a bit foolish having to ask now, but the longer this goes on the more embarrassing it gets," he finished with a self-deprecating smile.
Valiste chuckles a little "I suppose that would be embarrassing. Well Professor, my name is Valiste Morrette. Now, we can't keep a lady waiting can we?" he smiles, looking back at his obsidian box "That will be safe here won't it?"
"Then I would be glad to hear about it. But I'm afraid I still don't know your name.

"Probably, but I can put it in the desk drawer if you wish to be certain."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Morrette, and I hope that your stay at Avalon is a pleasant one."
Taking notice of all the undead, Krisilanni just licked his lips and sneered. "I'm gonna show you bastards why you should've stayed in the grave!" he yelled, and focusing his mind, he formed a spiked mace out of his black blood, protruding from the wound he inflicted on himself with the dagger.
"Probably, but I can put it in the desk drawer if you wish to be certain."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Morrette, and I hope that your stay at Avalon is a pleasant one."
"That's probably best, let's just say my life depends on that status of that box"
"Judging by this meeting, it probably will be professor"
"What's a baa-boo and how is it different from a monkey?" she asked, confused.As they walk.
Sun whispers to Chara
I am a baboon actually
Well, ahhh...I'm, ahhh, you see this tail, well its not prehen...noticing she probably has no idea what he's talking about,
Sun seems a bit "tongue tied" at the question looking for the right answer.finally he decides...
I'm smarter and lets just leave it at that. OK?
Oh... Its pronounced Baa-boon, but I like you so you can call me anything you like
"Probably, but I can put it in the desk drawer if you wish to be certain."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Morrette, and I hope that your stay at Avalon is a pleasant one."
"That's probably best, let's just say my life depends on that status of that box"
"Judging by this meeting, it probably will be professor"
"Well, by all means, then, let's keep your box safe." He opens one of the desk drawers. "You can put it in there. I have many levels of enchantments on this desk to keep students from interfering with its contents, so I'm confident that your box will not be disturbed while we're gone."
Responding the to voice in his head, but not to David Ace 'says' ::"I do not really stake a claim to any one. However, it did rile him up. Battles are not always won via the physical or mystickal. Many a fight has been won with several well placed words, before a blade is ever drawn or spell cast. I will hear your conditions, and then make my choice after."::"Some wisdom! Now if you actually practiced that...My terms are, one, This fight will be done in private with only myself witnessing, according to the dueling rules allowed by the Headmaster. Two, you will each agree to not disclose the results of this event to anyone, or allow the results to told to anyone by any being you may have control of or be bonded to, or psychicly linked with. This will be sealed with a Greater Geas spell, that you will willingly allow before fighting, with rather unpleasant consequences should you attempt to break your oath. You also will not attempt to remove the geas, or ask for assistance in removing the geas for a period of one year. This is between the two of you, and it will remain between the two of you. Duels are serious, and are supposed to be used to settle differences, amongst men of honor, not used as popularity boosts or to woo females. Those are my terms."
"That kinda bites... I know she's going to ask... he made sure to make enough noise that everyone and their scaly great grandfather heard about it" "can I get my Psi Crystal here first it should have heard that call, Did either of you see a floating rock, a psi crystal , bout twice as big as normal, somewhere in the vacinity of that drow" he points at the drow,
"Well, by all means, then, let's keep your box safe." He opens one of the desk drawers. "You can put it in there. I have many levels of enchantments on this desk to keep students from interfering with its contents, so I'm confident that your box will not be disturbed while we're gone."
Valiste picks up his box, placing it gently within the desk drawer "Again, thank you professor."
"I know, but we want to help in other ways too! It's not fair! We can get people off other planets, but can't fix bones!"
Phaezeriel, interested in the conversation, dismisses his invisibility and settles to a chair near Ephebe to listen.
::Ephebe, I may be able to help with the pain your friend feels when they try to heal her. While these nanites make it so she won't feel the pain, I can empathically take the pain she is feeling from her, and if I can find a group of psionics who are willing to help her, I can spread the pain very thin so that no one person feels it all.::
Treisdan's head tilts to one side as if listening. then he excuses himself politely and heads to his room.
Reaches into one of his belt pouches and pulls out David's Psicrystal "This what you're looking for?"
"Well, by all means, then, let's keep your box safe." He opens one of the desk drawers. "You can put it in there.

"It's my pleasure, Mr. Morrette. Now, let's go find Professor Sunwake and see if there's anything else that can be done to help you," he said, carefully locking the desk drawer as well as the classroom door as they exited.
He led the way through the stone hallways far from where the classrooms were until they came to a nondescript door with a scanning plate next to it. He knocked on the door.

::Yes, that might just work...it would take a lot. From what Mom said, the pain was extreme, but it's the best solution I've heard so far.::
"Actually," she said to the children, "you may have helped her just by bringing it up when you did. We'll have to see, but Phaezeriel might have an idea."
Reaches into one of his belt pouches and pulls out David's Psicrystal "This what you're looking for?"
the rock casts inflict pain on you as soon as it is free of the bag as stated earlier for 2 damage, (unless you have power resistance) and flies over to him and you can hear a razzberry sound in your mind
"yes Skeets is mine...why... why did you have him?":because he's an ***Hole duh: the rock says :shut up: I reply back, everyone within 5-12 feet can hear the conversation.
"Ah, Ephebe! Good, I caught you in between crowds. I've got another new student for you to register," she said, drawing Lang Fei forward.
"Chara has been showing him around in her own haphazard way," she said, sounding just a little exasperated.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
All three children instantly cheer up and run around the room excitedly. :D
"It's my pleasure, Mr. Morrette. Now, let's go find Professor Sunwake and see if there's anything else that can be done to help you," he said, carefully locking the desk drawer as well as the classroom door as they exited.
He led the way through the stone hallways far from where the classrooms were until they came to a nondescript door with a scanning plate next to it. He knocked on the door
Valiste follows you through the hall's, explaining how the box he came to you with contained his actual heart, taken out with dark magics, making him a lich in a way as you both are waiting at the door.

Hi Krisilanni Ok sorry got that wrong, best thing with any thing your going to use is post a link to it.
so for warsight
oracle
War Sight (Su): Whenever you roll for initiative, you can roll twice and take either result. At 7th level, you can always act in the surprise round, but if you fail to notice the ambush, you act last, regardless of your initiative result (you act in the normal order in following rounds). At 11th level, you can roll for initiative three times and take any one of the results.
So yes you act in the surprise round and as its not an ambush. your inti is 1st and they will be closing with a double move action.
round Surprise
Krisilanni - 26
undead wolf pack - 16
Undead Warlord - Holdind
{act back of pack}
"I don't like being spied upon" He says nonchalantly.
"I assume you also heard the conditions of our duel. Do you accept?"
"yea yea don't get your panties in a twist, he wasn't supposed to be spying on you, you may just be getting paranoid, kinda bummed I can't tell when people ask, but first I want to make a condition, whoever wins no hard feelings ok? ego asside, you seem like a decent dude, sound good?"
"Lycan... My apologies, Anyone, Lycan, Vampire, or Human... any of them may cause grievous injury to anyone else... Becoming an animal just gives you a weapon on hand at all times. Control is the key....""Right. Just...control is kind of a sticky subject. Last year a bunch of us got our minds taken over by another student...She's changed I guess. But there's still a lot of lost pride to contend with. And some other stuff. Anyway, that's why the lycans can be dangerous as a group."
"even humans have a weapon on hand at all times. a weapon few truly appreciate, though quite dangerous when utilized. the mind."
His face becomes utterly blank when you mention your mind's being taken control of
Hesitates then....
"No matter what happens to you you must constantly remember that noone is less than you are because of their race."
"i can agree with that sentiment, and prejudice, whether based on circumstances we cannot control, such as race or status, or those we can, such as the choices we make in life, is harmful, and it is unfair to judge someone negatively for a difference in species."
"Telling you. I see all races as equal," Treisdan looks over at Umbri what time is it?
"What do you think we should do now?"
"indeed, all races are equal, all beliefs are equal, and all professions are equal. one should be careful not to excessively generalize, for even the races percieved for great evil, are still capable of producing specimens capable of great good. as applies in reverse."
" i left my pocket watch in my bedroom, the thing is on it's fourth lifetime and i try not to rely excessively upon it. so i tend to have difficulty tracking the time. but i think it it is getting dark. i think it may be dinner time. i'm hoping they have Spanakopita."
Lang step forward and gives a respectful Bow.
I am honored to be here at the school. I hope that Master Hito as given you all the necessary information
Lang is being at his best behavior so as to make a good first impression.
where's the scales?
Lang just gives Sun a sush

"Hmm. After a fashion, I suppose. Although you do still have a heart in your body, though it is a bit irregular. Well, I suppose the necromancy teacher Professor Blackscales could shed some light on that. Er, the kobold, not the girl....you know the biggest problem with nepotism at this school is trying to keep track of who's who," he joked. "We have three Professor Sunwakes, two Professor Blackscales, two Professor del Sols....and it seems like half the staff is related to each other in some way...We're really going to have to work on how to differentiate people better."

He shrugs, "I guess it works as long as it's not the original that get's placed back into the person's chest" Valiste tilts his head in confusion "How do you even get anything done during the day with most of the teachers having the same name?"
"Aye, tis a bit unfair we are unable to talk about the duel. After all, we are kids, its in our nature to brag"
In my room for around 45 mins
"Aye, tis a bit unfair we are unable to talk about the duel. After all, we are kids, its in our nature to brag"
"I only want to be able to tell someone if they ask, whoever wins this looks like a great fight, and I don't want to hold out on them"
Lang step forward and gives a respectful Bow.
I am honored to be here at the school. I hope that Master Hito as given you all the necessary information
Lang is being at his best behavior so as to make a good first impression.
"It's a pleasure to have you here. I'm sure we have the information somewhere," she said apologetically, "but we're a little behind on the paperwork. But don't worry. I already know your room assignment. Each block of rooms has a chaperone in case any of you need anything. Your room's chaperone is...ah, Mr. Sandwalker, it would appear," she said, checking her papers.
"And it looks like you'll be in my class this term."
"I find the scales tend to be a bit off-putting to some of the new arrivals," she replied to Sun's question with amusement.
"Hmm. After a fashion, I suppose. Although you do still have a heart in your body, though it is a bit irregular.

"With great difficulty," he said dryly.
Lang smiles
Yes! I'm in....I mean thank you mrx Blackscales he regains his composure and bows once more.
can I go to my room now? I could use a short rest. and I would like to use the garden in the evening for night time meditations is that ok?I saw this beautiful willow tree and I would like to spend some time there, and then theres the ship, and ....
Lang is now intrupted by Sun... Sush!
