Group 1:
Group 2: Shiva just lies in the floor, apparently sad.
Group 1:
I'm... Confused, Maria. - says the Brawler, as he stands up - Perhaps they were dragged out of here via some sort of magic? Or, perhaps, a hidden passage? I don't see any tracks, though, and it's very concerning!
Group 2: Shiva growls, not too loudly, but doesn't move from her spot. She knows Brand and Rosalyn, but the animal is too scared to get out of there - as much as she is curious about the whereabouts of Bump.
Group 1:
Bump limits himself to follow Maria, frustrated her powers don't give her any other edge and limit them to the suggestion he gave of holding their breath. He moves inside, pulling a piece of cloth in front of his mouth, and starts trying to track where their companions could have gone.
Group 2: Shiva wakes up very confused, and her temper quickly threats to get her enraged by not seeing Bump - she barely manages to keep herself calm. She stays on her same spot, grinding her teeth towards Rosalyn as if not fully trusting anyone. The animal is clearly scared, and it maybe just makes her more dangerous.
Glad to see you're fine. - says Bump, already reengaging his weapons to return - We have to go back. We fell into some sort of gas trap. That entire room was an illusion. I didn't know who to pull... So I pulled you, hoping you could help us deal with it somehow. He looks back, thinking about his 'sister' companion. We can't let them there. Maybe we could hold our breath for enough time to pull them out of there... Or maybe you have some trick to deal with inhaled poisons?
Bump looks around as people start dropping. The young human shakes his head, worried, and doesn't have much time to think at all. Finally, he decides to run to the other door, jump the pit and pull together someone with him. His first reflex would be to carry Shiva, but he knows better his companion won't be of much help. He ends up trying to carry Maria, hoping she can pull a trick from her kinetic powers.
Bump:
Shiva:
What? What do you mean? - says Bump, pulling his companion behind him instinctively - I see another door ahead!
A little more recovered, Bump limits himself to wait for the others for a moment, until Maria starts moving. At that point, he signs to his animal companion and they both follow the Human.
I'm a little hurt. - says Bump - But probably nothing that requires more than the simplest of healing effects. I think Brand was hurt too.
Both Bump and Shiva try to simply step sideways, if possible, to unleash their full attacks.
Shiva:
Bump:
Shiva:
Bump starts his attack on the doll that attacked him. He enters Crane Style and fights defensively, flurrying with his madu and tonfa.
Bump:
Bump was visibly shocked by Maria's engaging one of the dolls to attack it, but quickly tried to recompose himself and assume a defensive position, in case combat would break out somehow. At the end of the day, maybe it could be a good guess... Since those dolls were creepy anyway. He just signed Sheeva to stay on her toes.
Very well. - says Bump, protecting his nose from breathing too close of the corpse, and pushing Sheeva behind him - We should investigate, then, I guess. He pulls his weapon and shield, and approaches the dolls. I saw something moving around here, though, so we're not alone.
Bump looks at Rosalyn and sighs. The brawler would never get used to certain urbanisms - as much as he was young, he was forced to mature much earlier.
Bump waits as the others do their checks, and signs to calm his "sister".
Holidays period and guess what? I'm going to be absent again this weekend, for some days. I'll be back Tuesday. I hope you all have a fantastic New Year's eve. For the games I'm playing in: please feel free to bot me as needed, GM. I apologize for the inconvenience! For the games I'm hosting: don't worry, I'll be back! Feel free to use the period to get your posts current. I may be able to log in spottily during the weekend. Cheers!
Bump holds and signs Shiva to wait. He looks at the others, as if waiting for one of them to pull a magic trick to light the path. He starts, however, reaching his backpack for a torch.
There! - Bump points one of the ruined buildings to the others - I saw something retreating inside. Come! He almost immediately moves, signing to Shiva to follow.
Hey guys! I'm working on my move and relocation and should be back by Wednesday. Cheers!
There's something here... Not sure if I can pinpoint what... - says Bump, feeling the odd energy flowing. He touched Shiva's shoulder to contain the animal, while circling his eyes around.
I guess we should investigate. I can help Maria take point, if she so desires, or go a little behind if you prefer. We might need Shiva's scent, however. Bump is still fairly shy, but he's gaining confidence - especially with the prospect that someone is clearly very hurt, or being hurt even more.
If needed:
Bump shook his head and got down to his knees, looking the tigress deep on her eyes as he magically spoke to her while holding the bloodied cloth. Tiger language:
Find the owner, sister. Use your senses. Just don't forget we're slower than you! She might be able to track this person. We don't have a moment to waste, my friends. - he says to the rest of the group, immediately getting ready to follow Shiva.
As they search, eventually Bump notices a long white coat. Clearly worn in battle, he can't avoid but noticing the blood in it. Yet, a broken blade nearby catches more his attention.
He handles the blade to his companions, still in silence, but as if inquiring their opinion.
Just an update to all my tables: I'll be traveling this holiday weekend and absent for most of the time. I'll be back next week but my connectivity should be a little spotty at least on the first days. For my players: don't worry, I'll get back :) for the tables where I'm the player: I'll come back as well, but meanwhile feel free to bot me if needed to keep things going. Cheers and have a nice holiday weekend!
Look around, Shiva. - Bump says, speaking to the tigress directly on her language.
Very shy, Bump tried to greet his companions and introduce himself. Rosa... Maria... Brand... - he started, stuttering a little bit. The tigress by his side rolled her eyes - ... I am Bump. Er... Yes, Bump. And this is Shiva. He pointed his companion and then smiled, trying to be friendly. Bump was simply too shy to even refer words to the Queen herself, limiting himself to bow again.
Bump was humbled to have been picked on the talent show, and sincerely couldn't find much words to thank the queen and her advisors - other than greet them respectfully and smile. He signed for Shiva to greet them too, but the tiger didnd't really seem interested. When Maria called them, Bump immediately followed. Shy, the Barbarian avoid their eyes as much as he could, but yet spent some moments discreetly analyzing the Goblin and the Human. Even more curious he was, however, about the other woman - the one chosen in the show, with him. He couldn't quite see her demonstration and was clueless as to what she was capable of.
Hi guys! Nice to be here. I hope you appreciate strange names and wild things! @GM: I already adjusted his introduction. I hope it now matches better what's expected :)
Here's my submission for the game :) Background and sheet on the profile.
Still here.
I'm still around.
Bump looks very sad, for a moment. Oh, no! Come on! There's food here! - the Kokiri screams, while stepping to the side and pulling his short swords. Alright! Let's do it! - he finally smiles again.
My condolences, Sage. Take care.
- Hi! - Bump shakes his hand greeting Bonsai, and then the other people - Like my friend here said, I'm Bump, from the Kokiri Forest! Nice to meet you all. His smile is absolutely innocent and reveals clear happiness. After food is being ordered, the small (and voracious) fey can barely contain himself.
- Hey there, hi there! I didn't eat either! Bump was right behind them, somewhat close and with a big smile. In the middle of the crowd, the small Kokiri wasn't really something too impressive at all... Mostly bumping and being bumped, you see! He definitely had the face still dirty from probably eating a big sweet (which he was still somehow savoring), but was smiling and showing his neverending hunger for festive food. - We should find something to bite, huh?
It sounds like a good idea. Besides, Bump was used to climb the Great Deku Tree anyway :D
Hey guys! Glad to be here! Thanks for the opportunity, Aneirin :) Bump isn't a local obviously, but he already left the Kokiri Forest for some years, so he might have already known some of the locals already in his quests for adventure. He's always smiling and friendly, a genuinely goodhearted creature like most Kokiris.
Yay!! Can't wait ;)
Take your time, Aneirin :)
Hi Aneirin, Here's the profile for our little Kokiri Rogue, Bump :) Cheers |
