The Rise of the Windigo King (OOC and Signup)

feel free.

and you'll have to roll a new initiative for Land to join in.

Sure.

Random number (1,20) : 11

Still at 15 hp, or at full hp, or somewhere between?

Lobber will enter combat on his initiative, I assume, not beforehand.

Ok, I went. Xand, you are very much welcome. And also, LAND LOBBER HELLLLLP! Lemme know if I messed up anything.

My last combat was full of really good rolls. I cannot guarantee a repeat performance. Plus, being at half-health or not might adjust his choice of actions.

I dont even care as long as we have another person to take hits and stuff! Plus, I'm a Doctor!

You're the doc-tah?
Doctah hiew, exahctly?

And yes, you're right, you can heal, but I'm probably one of the few folks who will RP during combat, much to the chagrin of the Changeling Investigations group. Land Lobber will be a lot more cautious since technically, he didn't come to save you, he came to rob you.

The only flaw in your post I could argue was the gasp. Dr. Doom was already conscious from the Green Lantern healing, as any magical healing heals as if from 0 hp, you don't need to climb out of the negatives, so while it was a very refreshing breeze for him (and safety blanket)... You don't normally dictate the actions of other PCs. NPCs are cool though. Beat them up.

Ok, lemme fix that. I figured that might be a problem. My bad.
[P.S]: FIXED IT!

Hey, we insane unicorns gotta watch out for each other, right? Well, one mad one and one obsessed one, eh, same difference.

as I recall, Lobber had restored some HP with his attack to 22 or 24? but yes, you move on your initiative, which 11 places you after ragnarok and torch I think.

I checked back. 18hp. 11 init, go after the hippogriff, 4 pips...

Now I need to make an entrance that is both "party-friendly", and appropriate. Once the good archeologist performs their actions, of course. And then the whole party will be together! Happy day!

Alright, time to make an entrance!

you realize that raven is off line at the moment...

Yeah, I'm just dramatic like that.
And by dramatic, I mean weird.

All fairness, I DO have the appearance of being on all the time, since I check in during the day once in a while.

Same here actually.

It's only a small bit per person if you split it up amongst you... He's not gouging in the slightest, it's actually downright reasonable since he has fun throwing ponies around.

Seems reasonable.

By the by, does anypony know where the new initiative order is? I'm having problems figuring out whose turn it is...

EDIT: I think I just completely undermined Ragnarok's attempts to haggle...

Hah. I was going to start at 50, but minotaurs are not hagglers... And I seriously doubt this is the right time to practice it...

the order of things (I think)

C1
Ragnarok
Healing Torch
Land Lobber
C2
C5
Halynn
C6
Doctor Death Ray (I think we skiped his turn...)

side note is Halynn closer to Hal Jorden as the name suggests or John Stewart as the backstory suggests?

Yeah, I believe you guys did skip my turn at some point in there... I'm confused as to exactly how it happened, but I do want to have Dr. Death Ray to get up eventually. I also want to activate my robot again.

I think you skipped one of my turns when Dr. D was at 0HP, but my bot could still activate... and I thought you'd wait for me to post...

Well, I know how we can fix this.

I DEMAND TWO ROBOT ACTIVATIONS THIS TURN! DOUBLE CHAIN GUN ALL THE WAY!!!!

-I won't be able to post until tonight though, so be patient with me please (:

20-C1
12-Ragna
12-Torch
11-Lobber
8-C2
5-Halynn
4-C5
3-Dr. D
3-Dark Horse
1-C6

and no, we didn't skip any turns. this is the first round where this new initiative order is coming into play.

oldturn order
Dr.D merged combat and attacked with DH
Torch and Ragnarok attack knights.
Knight uses parry, two knights attack. surviving knight that goes after torch and ragna attacks
Halynn attacks with shield
Last knight attacks
new turn order started
first knight attacks
torch and ragna attack.
lobber enters combat.

the only way a turn could've been skipped is if you guys skipped an entire round of my knights responses while I was asleep.


Also, can I possibly get a description of how Ragna's special attack works? It's a curse right? Does she chant something? is there an evil spirit involved or some cloud of darkness? Are pests summoned to swarm like some kind of plague of egypt? how does she target it? what does it look like? Hard to RP a reaction to it when all I have is "you are now this"

Or do I have the liberty to just make something up?

Oooh, ooh, "make something up" is always fun!

Plagues of Egypt! Plagues of Egypt!

And you know, I bet these baddies will be smarter than the last bunch. They're not going to pick a fight with someone who collects momentos of the slain... Right?

Same combat actions as last time for Lobber, by the by. Just assumed.

We just negotiated in the middle of a fight. Seems Legit.

At a good discount, too. You guys got a good bargain. Only because Lobber thinks he can sell the swords and armor of the fallen as scrap metal does he offer such a reasonable deal.

...It was the only way I could see him joining into combat. And it is highly unlikely the green lantern will have to pay, since as soon as a ghost appears (which was promised), that's beyond reasonable he he will possibly refund the contract, depending on how things go up 'til then.
