@ GM Boldstrider,
Hey! Iron Man cries as the sword cuts through his armor leving a nasty gash on his arm, This armor is expensive! We were here to try and smooth things over but now I'm pissed! Tony takes a clumbsy swing at the man that attacked him before extending his arm as small cartridge clicks into place on his forearm. The cartridge starts to hiss as gas escapes a small nozzle next to a tiny wheel which begins to spin shooting sparks into air. The Sparks ignite the gas which washes over the three men in front of him.
GM:
Thanks! The first time I played this the GM misread/ran the trap at the cave entrance and TPKed us, so we never got to even get to the distillery. I sat in at the other table that was playing Decline that night and I remember they had a blast with the battle since it very different that most "kick in the door kill the monster" encounters. Nodding his head Tony shrugs as he speaks to Osprey. Sure thing, Cap. We'll do our best to either calm them down or, failing that, send them running. This area needs a nice temple where they can vent their frustrations. I find church just causes more frustration. A cheap brothel would be better I think. Who among us has honeyed words for these inbreeds? Really? Iron Man asks Durothil feigning insult. I'm hurt you would ask such a thing! Laughing at this own joke Tony turns back to closed door. Tapping a few buttons on his armor again he activates his shields and empowers his gauntlet before knocking. Good evening ladies and Gentlemen! As you all know the king or emperor or who ever now has the deeds to your lands. I get the feeling that some of you are blaming us for this unfortunate turn of events. My friends and I would like to talk to you, give our side of the story. I think you'll see that we are just humble Explorers who were caught in a very tough situation and did what we thought was best. If you think about it this hole situation is rather quite humorous. I bet in a few days we'll all be able to sit down for a drink together, think back on this day and laugh.
GM: Um... shouldn't we have fought an army of ghouls back at the distillery? I hate to second guess you but I'm using a GM star to replay this and that battle was one of the reasons. If I remember correctly the ghouls were supposed to attack as soon as the soldiers broke in or we agreed to turn over the deeds.
Tony glares at the elf as he reads the last part, but then shakes his head. Yeah Alright. Are we really just going to run? I'd like to try and smooth things over, though the torches and pitchforks kind of make me think that will be kind of hard. I just hope Happy made it out of town with my ride before things got too ugly.
Yeah I'm really not liking the situation either but look at it this way, "What would have happened if we weren't here?" This guy is in no state to fight so those guys would have burst in here, roughed him up and taken the deeds anyway.
Here drink this and stay down and out of the way. Iron Man says giving the man his Antiplague. Alright looks like we're going to have to defend this place. Lets try and get some barrels stacked up in front of the doors. If the doors are breached we'll lite the barrel. I'll take point on the main door try and slow down anyone who get past our defenses. Iron man starts rolling barrels towards the door were the voices are coming from if they are comming from all around he'll roll the barrels into the Stillroom since it has the least number of entry points.
SH!# I knew I should have prioritized waterproofing the suit. Well at least I have the propulsion worked out. He opens up his control panel on his forearm and after turning some dials and tapping some buttons a back lit bluish green liquid starts to course through the armor. Quickly his armor starts to shift and reform giving him flippers on his feet and fins on his back.
I really hate tentacles! Iron Man complains as he moves over to the edge of the water and his armor whirls to life.
If I can attack the tentacles:
Setting himself up in a position to catch as many of the tenticals as possible a small canister slides out of a compartment in the armor around his forearm, locking into place just below his hand where a small rod has extended and started spraying sparks. There is a high pitched hiss as the contents of the canister escape into the air and then a whoosh as the sparks ignite the gas creating a sheet of flame. If I have to wade into the water: Trudging into the water towards the beast a small, strange looking box clicks into place on the top on Iron Man's gauntlet. As the cooper coil inside begins to quickly spin electricity begins to crackle and arc across the plates of Tony's armor. Wating for a moment where a portion of the monster's body is exposed he plunges his fist down with all of his might.
I've got it. It just takes a bit for the thing to warm up. I really need to somehow incorporate it into my armor. Hey! Look there! The ground looks like people passed through here! iron Man cries, then he add's embarrassed Sorry, I normally don't notice that sort of thing. Looks like we're on the right path anyway. I wonder what 'Screamers' are?
Iron Man cusses as the sword cuts deep into him Happy! I NEED MY SUITE! Iron man yells as he drops his scotch and takes a step back away from the man with the sword. Happy flips the lid open on the check and the sides flop down exposing a neatly organized set of full plate armor decorated with gold and red plating. Iron man takes a strange device, covered with buttons and dials, out of a pocket. After fiddling with it for a moment he finally lets out a call, Aha got it! he points the devises at the open chest as it emits a few sparks and suddenly the armor in the chest rockets to the air. In a manner of seconds the armor flies over to Tony and, with a cacophony of clicks, clanks, and whirls, the armor assemble itself around him. Fully armored he flexes, making sure the joints move freely, Alright, lets do this!
I don't remember ever being in Railford, though that doesn't mean I've never been. He chuckles to himself as he hands out glasses, chilling them with a quick spell, and then pours everyone a liberal amount of amber liquor. Small towns like this are a little too rural for my tastes. Sometimes its fun to "slum it" a bit. Flash some gold and a little style in a place like Railford and you're an instant celebrity. he takes a nip of his drink and smiles reminiscently. I wouldn't worry about the fires though. Probably a backwoods celebration, or some silly superstition to scare off bad spirits. Places like this are usually full of backwards traditions.
Suite your self. Tony says to Castiel, It would have been a bit crowded anyway.
GM: My Armor is in a chest up with the driver. Also I like to describe my actions in a way that suits the character but I'll always specify what I'm actually doing.
