"uhm, Gramlag, what should we do about your old body?"
After letting go of Gramlag and stepping back "first we need information, know yourself and know your enemy" "we are fighting a powerfull enemy with a fortified base of operation, attacking him headon won't work, unless we can aquire superiour forces, we need attack his resources, he is a powerfull mage within a network, there are things he requires to continue doing whatever he does on a day to day basis." "attacking his resources will weaken him, and either force him to attack us, witch reduces his advantage of having a fortified possition, or he will become weak enough that we can attack him directly."
Seniko first planed on waiting a bit, but seeing Ternock tackle-hugging Gramlag, she decides to join, with a more normal hug.
Seniko moves closer to Shorafa and looks her deep into the eyes.
'A man could get lost in those eyes, as could a girl, but I don't think she means us harm.' The samurai girl steps back and takes a deap breath. "So be it, I, Seniko Rokuboshi, daugter of Masaru Rokuboshi and Yukiji Yokuyachi, Slayer of 2514 men, wielder of Makai no Kiba, own you Shorafa, priestess of Calistria, a favour, only limmited by oath previous and my own capabilitys, for the resurrection of Gramlag, a friend fallen in battle."
" Priestess Shorafa, Saul died through the hands of his own soldiers, through his own fault. We would be willing to compensate you, or your temple, for the trouble of transferring the service to another person."
Seniko watches Volk's inner conflict with amusement and follows the tiefling woman, looking around with curiosity, as she has never been in a temple of Calistria or a similar kind of establishment before.
'it's a good compromise, not exactly what either side wanted, but both can live with it. We get the scrole and get rid of the imp and the imp gets freed from his contract'
as does Seniko
Seniko will wake up with a yawn, stretch, don her armor and do her morning kata. After she is finished she will go looking for breakfast.
"Miss Nel is right Ternock, that thing is probably full of evil magic" "Miss Nel, if you insist that resting is necesary, then I would agree to rest"
"I vote for continuing the exploration for now"
Seniko softly places her hands on Volk's " Volk, we are a team, we take care of each other and you are my comrade so I obviously care about you. And this time nothing too bad seemed to have happend, but even if you checked, you can't check for everything, none of us can, each of us has a different speciality, so asking for help is not a sign of weakness, but a way to share our strenght."
Seniko breathes out and sheads her weapon. "Hopefully he", indicating the skelleton dust, " was put here as a guardian for the treasure and not as the last one that tried to open get the chest. Miss Seeker, would you check on Volk, see if the water held any curse or similar effect." in a scolding voice" Volk, don't rush into things like that, it might get yourself or one of us hurt."
The Undeads attack slides of harmlessly of Senikos armor.
"Until we know what killed him, no one touches the pool!" Seniko carefully moves closer to the body, never letting the pool fully out of her peripheral vision.
"Lets take a look at it first, then we decide."
"If you use both hands for a two-handed weapon you are at a disadvantage, fighting around corners or in close quarters in general. If you use both hands to fight with two weapons, then you can only use one effectively to attack, wether you fight around a left or a right corner. If you don't use your hands, then neither gives you an advantage or disadvantage."
"if you use your right hand to wield a weapon, then going left gives you a small advantage, as you can use the wall as a cover while still being able to strike with your weapon. "
"An intersection, lets take the left one. " Seniko continues in a lecturing tone "if you are in a place where you risk getting lost, pick a side and always take intersections at that side, this way you won't get lost, at worse you will walk in a circle."
"Miss Nel, would you take the rear and look out for any creatures or dangers that we passed without noticing them. " "Ternock, would you fly over us and look out for anything that we can't see from the ground and things above us."
"We follow the tunnel, unless someone has a good reason not to."
"I take the lead, Miss Seeker after me, followed by Volk and Miss Naranae"
"Blocking of the water for now would be a good idear Volk. Do you notice it when one of your barriers is destroyed?"
"hmm, the water was muddy before Volk blasted it, that suggests that there is either a flow of water, which means a connection to somewhere else, or that something or someone moved through the water recently." "Miss Naranae, do you posess any enhanced senses beside the ability to see without light?"
Seniko still has a few tricks in her bag(resolve)
Seniko smiles at Volk's compliment, not bothered by the abominations bit, she has made peace with those, and Volk's was obviously not meant hurtfully. "If you don't mind I would go down first, as I wear armor, just in case there is some kind of unfriendly surprise down there"
Seniko gives Naranae a thankfull look " The imp reminded me of something, there is a good chance we have to deal with an invisible opponent sometime in the future, be it wizards, imps or other things. Throw the flour at where you belive the invisible opponent to be, that should outline him, atleast of a bit, and the flour on the ground makes foodsteps much more visible"
"Miss Naranae, could you bring a small bag of flour once you are finished" Seniko follows Volk down into the chamber. The samurai girl carefully peeks down the pit.
"sounds like a plan, so lets search"
Seniko watchest he execution, her face showing nothing but fokus, being ready to intercept if anything unexpected happens.
Seniko, after thoughtfully listening to the conversation, adds"How about cutting of their right hand and letting them go? That way they are less of a danger to inocents, we show them more mercy than they probably deserve and we send a message, that surrender will spare your life, but you still have to pay a prise for opposing us in the first place."
how about offering to send it back, if It gives us the scroll and agrees to not return to this plane (or atleast to not come closer than 999 miles to any of us) and take no actions or inactions meant to result in harm for any of us for 100 Years and a day.
Seniko walks up to Volk and joins Naranae's hug "shhh, its ok, we all weren't strong enough, somethimes you give your all, but its not enough. they both had there reasons for being here and fighting, maybe we can fulfill those, or atleast remember their storys, so that they are not forgotten."
"Those people" Seniko makes a sweeping motion including all her allies, lingering on Sabola " have saved my life against the treachery of Saul's wizard ally. I will fight at their side till the very end."
if he doesn't surrender, I will shoot him, if the crossbow is loaded, throw it if not and see what happens to the projectile.
Seniko, her eyes no longer the color of fresh blood lit by the setting sun, shouts towards Volk
Abyssal:
"Calm down, all enemys beside Bojask are dead" The Samurai girl picks up a crossbow and walks closer to Bojask
or a half-shadow-dragon half-drow cut-throat slayer? I already have my Drider Spellsage in another game ;)
would be kind of cool if I had a Rakshasa-blood tiefling and you an Rakshasa Sorcerer :)
take a female tiefling (just to mess with volk :) ) stat wise you could do with less strenght if you go for a sniper (shoot from hiding for sneak attack damage(you can't flank at range)) for a less situational build
would be good p.s. I am working on a replacement for Seniko (there is a good chance she dies like Gramlag at some point), probalbly a beastbrood tiefling ninja (main) swashbuckler (1) brawler (max 2)
Seniko twists a bit,letting the halbeard slide of harmlesly off her armor and uses the opening in her enemys defense to delivere a deadly strike to his belly.
"2515" , pointing at the Gendarme north of the one she just cut down "you are next", towards Sabola the samurai girl adds "help the others, I take care of that one" She moves in a circular motion around Sabola, so that she is north west of her target.
"2514"
Seniko moves around the table and stops left of Ternock. The Samurai girl takes a deap breath, her eyes of not-a-color, that makes your brain hurt if you look at it, and does something, something that is at oods with how reality should behave, becoming blurry.
Seniko moves beside Seeker, into the cover of a table and fires an arrow at the rightmost Gendarme.
