However, as for YOU, Mr. Casper--
*Turns and sees dead guards--not debrained!--and missing Casper*
Ah, dammit. I'm getting out of here.

Come on, dinner, why won't you come out and play?
These ghosts aren't too bright, are they? It looks like this one is locked in his own separate reality where he can remove my brains without touching me.
By the way, can you guys PLEASE not eat all the cauliflower? That's all I'm going to have for supper tonight, thanks to that stupid zombie drooling all over my wallet. No WAY I'm touching that.

*Gets out ghost touch manacles and puts them on Casper*
You'll have to come with us, now. *eats Erusin's brain*
That was an appetizer, but I wish Dinner would come out of his house. Gee, too bad you're incorporeal. It's true. Eating your brain had nothing to do with sustenance and everything to do with deliciousness, even if it just fell through my body and splatted on the floor. Sorry, no. That's not how incorporeal things work. You can't taste things like that. Now get in the carriage, nutcase.
/\Score one for the cauliflower decoys.

Suddenly, Erus goes rigid. "Excuse me for a moment?" He mutters. "Telepathic message."
We're calling you back. The dragon is invading.
You have said that many times. I have seen reason to believe that Decca and her allies are a threat.
And you are right. But they are more powerful than we anticipated.
So are these people. We need men on this!
I am sorry, but we can't spare anybody. Give them the sword, if you must. The replica, please. But you have to come.
Erus sighs. "I have to go. I am ordered back." He pulls out a sword from his pack. "I am orders to loan you this. It is a lesser artifact of significant power. It is highly effective against demons, devils, and daemons, or any evil outsider." He hands it to Devlyn. "Use it well, shadowdancer." He signals to his troop, and they all start teleporting out. "Oh, by the way..." He calls back. "You had better return it when you are finished with it. Otherwise, it's theft, and we would really have to open hostilities. That would be bad." He vanishes.
Withdrawing my characters, due to NaNoWriMo. See ya in November!
Lameness is increasing, sir!

Decca is not the only one. There are five working in an alliance. And its not the Board they threaten. What and who, I do not know. Erus shakes his head at Solmyr. "This time, you are the ignorant one. Whenever there is danger in the land, whenever the safety of innocents is threatened...the Board is threatened. And The Servants will be there."
Decca. Right, that was it. See, it'd be easier for me to RP a bunch of diviners if I had actually aid attention earlier.
Solmyr of the Azure Flame wrote: Erusin wrote: "Um, no, we don't. You are misinformed about our knowledge base." Erus shrugs. Your knowledge base, this is not a cult your fighting, but something larger. Do you think your servants have a clue or even a shred of evidence. Tell me puppet, what do you know? Okay, see, that's annoying. I get that you want this plot of yours to be super special and all, and the BBEG to be more dangerous than we possibly imagined and all that, but the Servants are full of epic level diviners, and really powerful artifacts, and a huge amount of contacts. So, you're trying to show how the Servants are just a bunch of, as I said, 'meddling fools' by forcing me to use my own knowledge instead of the knowledge the Servants should actually have, so that you can show off you Big Bad in style. I'll let you explain it, but rest assured that the Servants are not ignorant.
Erus frowns. "What we know is this: the demon has a very large organization. It threatens the balance of the Board. Ergo, we have decided to exterminate it." However, some of his men seem surprised by his answer.
Just saying. I'll let you be more powerful than the Servants, but odds are, they know more about Zhalail than Demogorgon. ;)
So can we stop trying to show off our respective power and get on with the plot?

"Tristan is not out of danger yet, and to you, pointing at the gnome, the threat of Decca is greater on a scale than you can grasp. You think Zhalail is operating a simple cult? Sadly, you are misinformed."
"Um, no, we don't. You are misinformed about our knowledge base." Erus shrugs.
Not gonna try to lord over your plot, but for every time someone disses the Servants as a bunch of meddling idiots, I'm going to disagree. ;)
The Dalesman wrote: After listening to both sides go at it, Devlyn raises his voice.
"ENOUGH."
"Look - I think we can agree that there aren't going to be any long-standing friendships built out of this alliance (at least at this rate), but if we're going to work together to stop Zhalail, we need to actually work together and stop taking pot shots at each other when we clearly have something more important to accomplish. If neither side can do that - if we can't put enough trust in place to watch each others' backs until this is finished - then we need to split up right now and hit these guys from different angles so we each at least have a chance to take some advantage of the chaos Solmyr here caused them. Can we agree on that? Yes or no?"
"Very well. But if you ever expected any friendship to form of this, then the Goddess's servants are more delusional than we thought.

Aidan Moonschild wrote: "Do you wish to prove we underestimate you? I'm sure we can arrange a sparring match after this is over. Wouldn't you like challenge the former Champion of Fire?" Erus sighs. "Unfortunately, my orders are to leave immediately after target is annihilated or captured. I don't have time to play."
Oroth Sunschild wrote: "Fight alone tends to be foolish, but you are with The Sun, Moon, Shadow, and Mind. Being respectful of other's when you do not know the full extent of their powers is idiotic."
He pauses for a moment.
"And considering the three youngest of our group have... powerful bloodlines, I do not think you should underestimate them."
Erus sighs and turns to Oroth. "Do you jest? The girl took out an entire troop! Admittedly, most of them were inexperienced, but there were three very powerful mages there. I do not underestimate her, not in the least. I underestimate none of you. But your problem is that you underestimate the Servants."
